Chapter 13 Repayment of Debts
"That's it, Brother Wei, we've been working together for so long, if there's anything good to say, let's share it!" Zhang Peng saw it in his eyes, but he was happy to watch the play. Although the relationship between the two is relatively good, he is more willing to see the two sides quarrel, and has a kind of schadenfreude and muddy attitude.
"Good! Since you want me to say it, I'll say it! Wei Jing hesitated, gritted his teeth and said, "Do you remember the five hangs of money you borrowed from me before?" Now that I'm short on money, can you pay me back! You also know the situation in my family, I ......" Wei Jing felt embarrassed when he said this.
Wei Jing felt that everyone was a colleague before, and when he looked up, he didn't see Dong Qingsong when he looked down, Dong Qingsong was in difficulty, so he gritted his teeth and lent the money in his hand to Dong Qingsong. Before borrowing money, Dong Qingsong patted his chest and promised to return it to Wei Jing as soon as he had money. But it's been three months. Although the five hangs of money is not a lot, it is also a lot, at least Wei Jing's money for a month. According to the standard of living in Huaishuo Town, these five yuan is enough for his family to live for a month.
Wei Jing's difficulties are clear to his colleagues in the cell. And Dong Qingsong himself also has a fortune every month. But every time Dong Qingsong postponed it on the grounds that he had no money or repaid the gambling debts.
Wei Jing is not good at words, and he has a lot of thoughts about his colleagues, so naturally he can't say anything, but this time, he really can't help it, if he can't get the money, his family is estimated to be hungry in two days, and he really can't do it, so he opened this mouth. That is, when he said this, he felt very guilty in his heart, and felt that he was really not enough friends.
Dong Qingsong was stunned for a moment, his face stiffened, he didn't expect Wei Jing to ask for accounts in front of everyone. He is a face-saving person, every time Wei Jing wanted to ask him for an account before, before Wei Jing could speak, he directly blocked what Wei Jing wanted to say.
He actually has money in his pocket, but he just thinks that Wei Jing is honest and honest, so he deliberately borrowed money and didn't plan to pay it back, because he knew Wei Jing's character too well, as long as he made Wei Jing embarrassed to open his mouth every time, after a long time, Wei Jing was embarrassed to ask for it, so he pretended to have nothing. In this way, he will not lose face, but also have money to gain, why not do it, anyway, he feels that he has eaten Wei Jing with his cleverness. His mentality just corresponds to the popular saying at the moment: Why should I repay the money I borrowed by my ability!
"Hey! Wei Jing, what do you mean? Why don't I lend you some money? How big is it that you would say such a thing in front of such a colleague? Are you still human? You're trying to hurt my face, aren't you? How many times have I told you, now that you are short of money, I will pay you back as soon as I have money, and you don't believe me...... Who are you and Dong Qingsong? ”
Dong Qingsong was like a spring, he was pressed by Wei Jing, and immediately rebounded, and Wei Jing fell in anger. Wei Jing was aggrieved, and he felt that he was really wrong to open his mouth, and he shouldn't have said it just now. Wei Jing couldn't say a word.
Dong Qingsong was even more proud, and the more he spoke, the more energetic he became, and continued to count: "Your brother-in-law was beaten to death, knowing that you are having a better life, and looking down on us poor brothers, you don't invite guests, and you still say such things, you obviously don't treat our colleagues as brothers, right?" Okay, let's cut off contact in the future, no one knows anyone, what's so great......"
Dong Qingsong waved his hand and said it confidently.
"I didn't mean that, Lao Dong, I ......" Wei Jing's face was pale, like a child who had done something wrong, and wanted to apologize, completely forgetting that he was preparing to collect debts just now.
The two of them have an uncle and a grandson, and they can't help but remind people of a classic saying: It is the uncle who owes money, and it is the grandson who borrows money.
"Alright! I don't have much to say to you! Dong Qingsong and Wei Jing didn't give a chance to apologize, they looked high, but a few colleagues looked at it, and it seemed that Wei Jing was not interesting enough, and they all despised Wei Jing a little.
Wei Jing complained bitterly in his heart, the most taboo thing for colleagues is rejection, and now that he has been made by Dong Qingsong, these colleagues will definitely be estranged from him in the future, and he will not even have friends in the future, how can this errand continue.
Wei Jing was anxious and said, "Brother Dong, it's my fault, I ......"
"Okay! It's okay if you don't make friends like you! But since this friend doesn't have to do it, you should understand the truth of debt repayment! ”
Wei Jing originally wanted to say that the money didn't have to be repaid, and everyone would still be brothers in the future. But before the words could be spoken, Gao Xiaohuan behind him suddenly came out coldly.
"Xiao Huan, you ......" Wei Jing cried bitterly in his heart, his brother-in-law was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, he was already embarrassed enough, but his brother-in-law jumped out and added fuel to the fire, he knew that this was the case, and he didn't bring him over.
"Ghost ...... Ghost ...... "Several jailers knew Gao Xiaohuan, and they all heard that Gao Xiaohuan was beaten to death, and now Gao Xiaohuan suddenly appeared in front of them, and they were really frightened, and their faces were all pale.
"What? Surprised? Do you think I'm dead......" Gao Xiaohuan looked at the expressions of several people, and had already guessed a few points in his heart, and sneered: "But I'm disappointed, I, Gao Xiaohuan, not only did not die, but lived well!"
Gao Xiaohuan was behind before, and he had already listened to the words of Dong Qingsong and Wei Jing, these people gloated, Gao Xiaohuan also saw it in his eyes, knowing that these people did not have any good intentions, so he was not polite at all, since they were disrespectful, then there was no need for him to save face for them.
"Don't be afraid, Xiao Huan is just too ignorant, he collided with everyone, I hope you don't mind, in fact, he was just injured and didn't die, I hope you don't spread the rumors!" Wei Jing saw that everyone was frightened, and hurriedly explained and apologized.
But Gao Xiaohuan kept his eyes on Dong Qingsong to see how he reacted.
Dong Qingsong was also startled just now, but then he regained his composure, coughed lightly and said, "Wei Jing, what do you mean?" Feelings: In order to ask for money today, you made a special trip to pull your brother-in-law over to help! Okay, isn't it just five hanging money? You need this, don't forget what is the errand we do? Do you think that I can be scared by pulling your brother-in-law to help, I, Dong Qingsong, have been in prison for more than a day or two, do you think this is useful? ”
Dong Qingsong began to count Wei Jing again, looking calm and composed.
"I ......" Wei Jing was dumbfounded, wanting to explain that it was not what the other party thought, but before he could figure out how to explain, Gao Xiaohuan had already said coldly: "Debt repayment, it is natural, don't bother so much, do you pay back the money or not?"
Gao Xiaohuan is different from Wei Jing, he doesn't need to talk nonsense with the other party at all, and people like this don't need to talk nonsense, if he talks about any friendship, then he will really be taken into the ditch, and when the money is less than half a cent, it will be lost.
Gao Xiaohuan is not a good master, for him, kindness is a good thing, but for some people, he can't be too kind. Since the other party is still reasonable, then don't be polite, go straight to the point, don't talk nonsense with him, anyway, it's to repay the debt, and if you have any friendship, you will pay back the money first.
