Xiao Ling was stunned for a moment.

Does our family owe Brother Guang money? Xiao Ling didn't react at once.

Also, my father has always been in charge of the store, but my mother hasn't been very involved.

Now that my father has suddenly disappeared and my mother is like this, no one can ask at all.

Xiao Ling glanced at her mother. Mom was still giggling and eating noodles.

Now, it's up to you.

Xiao Ling said, "What money do you want?" ”

Brother Guang approached the bar. The strip in his hand shook in front of Xiao Ling.

"When I was renovating your home, I fell off a ladder and broke my leg. Remember. ”

Xiao Ling thought about it seriously. - I don't remember any of that.

"Don't think about it. You can see that this article is clearly written: if the injury recurs, the follow-up treatment costs will still be paid by Castle Peak Hotel. Brother Guang was serious, tilted his head, pointed to the words on the strip, and showed it to Xiao Ling.

"I'm going to see my leg again now. You give me money. Brother Guang spread his palms in front of Xiao Ling.

"Mom." Xiao Ling ignored him and glanced at his mother.

As if she hadn't heard, Mom continued to eat the noodles with her head down. That big bowl of noodles is about to be eaten.

Xiao Ling turned his head to look at Brother Guang: "Why didn't I know about this?" ”

Brother Guang said: "It's normal that you don't know. You've been studying in a foreign country for the past few years. First, I went to the county to study in junior high school, then to the city to study in high school, and then went to the provincial capital to study in college, and then worked in the provincial capital. Isn't your dad always doing the hotel business? ”

"At that time, the renovation of the upstairs room and the modification of the air conditioner were all asked by your father to do it."

Brother Guang didn't graduate from junior high school, and after he didn't study, he opened a home appliance store in the town. General installation and simple maintenance, he is doing it.

"And what's the matter?" Xiao Ling asked.

"You don't doubt the authenticity of this injury, do you?" Brother Guang was a little anxious, and his tone became heavy. "It's got your dad's autograph on it."

Xiao Ling leaned in and took a closer look. It's indeed Daddy's handwriting.

It turned out that in the previous years, many guests complained because the upstairs room was not equipped with air conditioning, only a fan.

Dad was afraid that it would affect his business, so he spent money for Yang Guang to install air conditioning in every room.

When installing the air conditioner in the third room, Yang Guang fell off the ladder.

It's just that the angle of the fall was very unexpected, first stepped on the bed, the quilt slipped a little, stepped on the air, and a big fork fell to the ground.

As a result, Yang Guang's ankle was misaligned and his bone was cracked.

At that time, his father sent Yang Guang to the town health center, paid all the medical expenses, paid some lost work expenses, and gave Yang Guang and his father some cigarettes and alcohol, apologized, and was meticulous and thoughtful.

However, their family still refused, and they asked their father to sign the guarantee letter of this bullying.

As a result, before the foot grows, Yang Guang smokes and drinks without being spicy or taboo, and even dismantles the plaster cast in advance and drags around to play.

As a result, the ankle is always more accurate than the weather forecast when the weather changes every year, and the worse the day, the worse the foot hurts.

So, Yang Guang took this piece of torn paper again and again and came to the door to ask for money.

It's just that when he asked for money the first few times, Xiao Ling was not at home. It's all sent by my father.

This time Dad wasn't in the store, and Mom was like this again. Only Xiao Ling handled it herself.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ling glanced at her mother.

Mom had already eaten the big bowl of noodles and was pinching her chopsticks and looking at Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling walked over and took the empty bowl.

"Mom, do you still want to eat?" Xiao Ling asked.

Mom looked at Xiao Ling and smiled even more. Mom nodded vigorously.

Xiao Ling turned his head, took his bowl of noodles, and put it in front of her mother again.

Xiao Ling walked to Yang Guang's side, took the paper, and read it again.

"Yang Guang, you say, how much do you want this time?" The date on the paper was several years ago.

It seems that Yang Guang has asked for money many times.

"Anyway, it's worth 3,000 yuan. It hurts even more this year. Yang Guang gritted his teeth, and the pain was the same as the real thing.

"So, how much has my dad given you in the past few years?" Xiao Ling asked.

"Cut. Five hundred and one thousand, not much. It's not enough for a meal every time. Yang Guang said with shaking legs.

"So, how much are you going to want next year?" Xiao Ling's eyes scanned up and down at the paper in front of him and Yang Guang in front of him.

"I don't know yet, but let's see what happened." Yang Guang was still shaking his legs.

"Well, what about the year after tomorrow?" Xiao Ling squinted and asked with a smile.

"The year after tomorrow, it depends on the situation. Now give me this year's. Yang Guang spread his hands again.

"Yang Guang!" Xiao Ling was a little angry.

When her mother heard this, she stopped eating noodles and raised her head to look at Xiao Ling.

"Mom, it's okay, you go ahead and eat noodles." Xiao Ling walked over to persuade her mother.

"Yang Guang, let me tell you, you can't go too far." Xiao Ling said. "An ankle injury, no matter how much you treat, it won't cost so much money."

Yes, the money given over the years, adding up, is almost enough to give Yang Guang a new foot.

Yang Guang does not follow. Still spreading his palms, shaking his legs there.

Xiao Ling was so anxious that her face turned red. But there is no way to deny that Dad signed it.

Xiao Ling had no choice but to say, "Brother Guang, do you think this will work?" I've just come back, and the situation at home hasn't been sorted out yet, so in two days, two days later, you'll come back to me, okay? ”

Yes, the luggage has just been put down, and the situation at home is still unclear.

Yang Guang does not follow. The hands are still there.

"If we can't get the money today, we won't leave."

"Brother Guang, it seems that this girl doesn't want to give money." The younger brother who followed the class added a sentence.

"Huh! How can it be. I grew up watching Xiao Ling. Xiao Ling has always been a person who counts when he speaks. Yang Guang turned around and said.

"Brother Guang, it's really not that I don't give it, it's true, I don't know how to give it to you now." Xiao Ling walked to the front desk and pulled open the drawer.

"Look! No one has come to the hotel for the past few days, which is not a penny. Xiao Ling spoke a little heavier.

"I don't have any cash, I can transfer money by phone. How can someone from a big city like you be as old-fashioned as me? Yang Guang still didn't follow.

Xiao Ling was helpless.

Half of the money she earned in the city was given to the landlord, half of it was eaten and the subway was taken, and then she bought some cosmetics or something, and there was nothing left. That is, before her father's disappearance, the family could still support herself by relying on this small hotel, and she didn't need to contribute anything to the family for the time being.

Therefore, Xiao Ling has never sent any money to his family.

It's just that now that her father suddenly disappeared, all the things in the family suddenly weighed on her.

Xiao Ling glanced at her mother.

Mom has already eaten all the noodles. Mom grabbed the chopsticks, looked up at Xiao Ling, and smiled.

Xiao Ling walked over and put the bowl away. Grab the dishes and chopsticks and walk out the door.

"Don't go, beauty!" The little attendant said.

"Don't worry, I'm not running. I returned the bowl to Aunt Fifth first. Xiao Ling had already walked outside the door.

Yang Guang followed.

"Xiao Ling, beautiful woman, you can give me money first. I won't bother you if I take the money. Really, I promise. ”

"I don't have that much money right now." Xiao Ling was anxious. "Besides, you want three thousand for this opening, is it the doctor who said it?"

"I didn't go to the hospital. I went to the hospital for a few days, not to mention three thousand, five thousand is not enough. "Yang Guang followed closely." You want me to go to the hospital and lie down for a few days, hello give me money, right? ”

"Beauty, you can't do that. You might as well give me the money. ”

"What money to give?!" This is the voice of the fifth uncle. The fifth uncle held a big knife and stood at the door of his shop.
