Chapter 104: Homecoming
Xifu Village Luo family. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The whole family seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds, and the atmosphere was oppressive.
In the room, a thin middle-aged man was lying on the bed smoking a cigarette silently, while a haggard woman next to him was sobbing incessantly. On the stool opposite the bed sat several men and women, staring at the two people on the bed.
Finally, a slightly young woman sitting on the stool couldn't hold her breath and spoke: "I said sister-in-law, the money you owe can't be delayed any longer." You better call Rob, he is in the city, he must have made a lot of money, he can still afford this money, why do you bother to hold on! Besides, there is nothing unspeakable about the substitution of the natural meaning. ”
"Nonsense! Lao Tzu didn't even save some money for his son to marry a daughter-in-law, and he asked his son to help pay off his debts, can I still hold my head up in the village in the future! It was Rob's father lying on the bed, and when he heard the woman's words, he became like a cat with his tail trampled on, and he immediately became furious.
The title of father is not so easy to bear, and it involves a heavy responsibility. I don't know how many men have worked hard all their lives to make themselves worthy of this title, only those second-rate people disregard their faces and ask their children for money.
As the woman said, if Rob really made a fortune and became rich, then it is only natural for his parents to follow him. However, children take the initiative to give money to their parents, which is filial piety, and parents naturally want as much as they want, and they can also show off their talents. But if the children get rich but don't say a word, and the parents come to the door to ask for money, it is another thing to publicize the ugliness of the family.
Rob's father, of course, did not refuse to ask Rob for money because of his family's ugliness. It's just that he understands his son's situation, and his son has already given the money he earned to the family during the Chinese New Year. The so-called making a lot of money in the city was entirely conjectured by this woman from Rob's mother's usual boasting to her son.
"Hey, if it weren't for an accident at home, it's okay for the old woman to brag a few words, but what now?" In fact, that parent usually doesn't brag about their children, but at this time, they were said as evidence of being rich, how could they not make Luo's father angry, he was full of depression in his heart, and finally vented it at this moment.
"Lao Luo, this is your mistake. If it weren't for your wife always saying that your son is making money, but he can't turn around for the time being, we wouldn't have lent you money. An older man saw that Father Luo was angry, and said with a cold snort.
"That's it! After a year, your ducks died of infectious diseases, and many of them died, and the family's livelihood was cut off. Because everyone is a villager in the township, I believe you to lend you money to buy duck seedlings, and re-make this livelihood, and now your ducks have been stolen again, where is it possible to repay the money by raising ducks! All of us are also for your good, you let Rob return the money, and your old couple will follow him to the city to enjoy happiness! ”
As everyone was no longer silent and chirping, Luo's father's mood became even more sad and angry.
"Could it be that this year is my calamity! I was hit by all the bad luck. Luo's father suddenly had a whimsical idea that the locals were tired of eating chickens, and it should be natural to get a duck to try, so he spared no expense to transform an abandoned fish pond into a duck shed.
Everything went well, but what I didn't expect was that there were a few more wintering wild ducks in the duck shed during the Chinese New Year, and then the ducks were inexplicably infected with the virus, and many died not long after. Luo's father replenished a lot of duck seedlings, borrowed a lot of money to buy feed and veterinary medicine, and hoped that the duck would make up for the deficit after it was raised.
But not long ago, there was an accident, someone sneaked into the duck shed at night, injured Luo's father, and swept away the ducks. The duck that is about to grow up is gone, but it needs Luo's father's life! This is his hope to turn over, and it is also the root of people's willingness to let him owe debts. Now there is no hope of turning over, but those who ask for debts have come to the door.
Although the money owed by his family is only tens of thousands, but at this time no one thinks about this, those who owe more talk in the house, those who owe less listen to the letter in the courtyard, and even those who owe a few hundred yuan are also outside the door to join in the fun.
Father Luo thought about it, but he really couldn't think of any way. The only valuable thing in the family is the contracted land, and as long as the land is subleased, it can get through this difficulty. But in this way, he has no ability to turn over at all.
At this moment, suddenly there was a loud commotion outside the door: "Wow, Rob, you bought a car!" ”
"What a new car!"
"What? Rob is back and has bought a car? Rob's parents were stunned, and then a sense of joy filled their hearts, and they rushed out of their homes to the street. The people in the house and in the courtyard also hurried out
I saw Rob standing next to a brand-new car, smiling and modestly saying to the people who were watching the excitement: "It's just an ordinary car, it's not worth much, that is, for the convenience of doing business." ”
An idler touched the front of the car and said enviously: "This is a car, with it, you don't have to go in the wind and rain." ”
In today's society, cars have become very common in rural areas, but having a car and not having a car is a dividing line between rich and poor, and with a car you will no longer feel inferior.
When Luo's father went out of the house, he saw that the idle man was touching his car, and he hurriedly yelled: "Wu Er, take your dirty hands away, haven't I touched it yet, you dare to try it!" ”
The idle man trembled with fright, and said with a smile: "I didn't look at this car too magnificent, so I couldn't help it." ”
Luo's mother went over to beat Rob and said happily: "You child, you don't discuss it with your family when you buy a car, it's really a big deal!" Although she was complaining, from the way she smiled, everyone knew that she was praising her son in a different way.
She was forced to cry all the time just now, but she didn't expect her son to buy a car and come back, she suddenly had a feeling of raising her eyebrows, and suddenly had an idea in her heart that she didn't give birth to this son in vain.
The group of creditors who walked out of the courtyard, looking at the tall body, also forgot the purpose of their visit, and couldn't help but praise: "This car is really luxurious, it must be worth a lot of money!" ”
In rural areas, there are mostly tens of thousands of small breads or slightly more expensive cars, which are more than 80,000 yuan of cars. Moreover, this big car consumes a lot of fuel, and ordinary people can't afford to drive it, so this group of creditors determined in an instant: Luo Bu is indeed making money in the city! We can't be offended, maybe we'll have to ask him for help in the future!
