Chapter Ninety-Five: Debt Collection

Not long after Tong Li returned home, Zhou Mei returned.

"Coming back? Have you asked Ji Yushu to inquire? Zhou Mei is now in debt, and she is always thinking about this in her heart.

Tong Li ate biscuits and leaned on the door cabinet, "I saw Tong Lin today, she was going to open a store in Changming Hutong to sell clothes, and I brought the words too, she said that she would come back when she was done." ”

"Opening a clothing store? Nonsense, how can she be in business? Besides, it's a shame to do business, and if you don't do a serious job, who will do that? Zhou Mei still looks down on people who don't have a formal job in his bones.

"She has money now, and of course she has the final say on what she wants." Thinking that Tong Lin was so rich, Tong Li's tone was also sour.

When it comes to money, Zhou Mei's heart also hurts, "She wants to open a store, when will she be busy?" How long will it take to go home and see? ”

"I didn't dare ask." Tong Li said, "What if her temper comes up, because what I said won't come back." ”

"Forget it, I'll go over and have a look."

Zhou Mei went to cook, halfway through the meal, Zhou's mother came over.

When Zhou Mei saw her mother coming, her heart chuckled, "Mom, have you eaten?" Let's eat here if you haven't eaten. ”

Mother Zhou glanced at her daughter, "No, there is something at home, I passed by and sat down." ”

Zhou Mei called her daughter to look at the pot, she entered the house and closed the door with her hand.

"Mom, why are you here?"

"Your nephew's marriage is almost discussed, your sister-in-law discussed with me last night that she went to see the house in the past few days, she saw a house, it was the family courtyard of the machinery factory, I heard that the family surnamed Hu, the man in the family had an accident, and now the woman is planning to go back to her hometown with her children, and she is in a hurry to sell the house, the red brick house, and the independent courtyard, such a house is not easy to find."

Zhou Mei sat down, "What is a good house over there in the mechanical family courtyard, you let my sister-in-law not worry, take a look at it more." ”

"I persuaded her to say this, but she and your eldest brother went to see it before, and the two fell in love, and the family was in a hurry to sell, afraid that the house would be sold, so they came home a few days ago to ask me for money, and I also asked people to bring me a letter to let you go home, you should always understand what it means, right?" Zhou's mother didn't say it directly, but she believed that her daughter also understood.

Zhou Mei pursed his lips, "Mom, you give me a few more days, I am also in a hurry to sell the house here, how can I have money if I don't sell it." ”

"At that time, I poured the money to you, but I said that if the family wants to use it, you have to pay it back by all means, your eldest brother and your sister-in-law don't know that I used the money for you, delaying your nephew's marriage, and the family will have to make a mess." Mother Zhou didn't care about that, got up and said, "I'll give you another day tomorrow, and you will send it home in the evening." ”

didn't look at her daughter, Zhou's mother left.

Tong Li in the outhouse saw that her grandmother was gone, and asked, "Grandma, aren't you eating here?" ”

"No, I'm going back to cook for your uncle."

"Then you'll come back another day." After Tong Li sent her grandmother, she entered the house, and when she saw her mother in a daze, she came over, "Mom, what's the matter with my grandma?" ”

"Your work, your grandmother and I poured 3,000 yuan, and your uncle is in a hurry to buy a house, and now he wants to use this money."

Tong Li's eyes widened, "That.... So how can we have money? ”

"I thought about selling my house, and no one is buying it right now."

"Mom, why don't you go to Tong Lin to borrow some?"

"You didn't think about it, she wouldn't take it out." Zhou Mei sighed.

"That.... So where are we going to live after selling the house? "Tong Li is still stunned, it's too shocking.

Zhou Mei didn't speak, sat silently for a while, turned around and rummaged through the closet, and turned out an iron biscuit box from inside.

I opened the lid, took out the contents of it, and finally took out a bill, which was the bill for this house.

Tong Li was attracted by a silver bracelet inside, and she picked it up and took a closer look.

The bracelet is very thin and not big, it looks like it is for babies to wear, and it is engraved with plum blossoms and magpies, and it must be a good skill to be able to engrave such a pattern on such a thin bracelet.

"Mom, where did you get this? I haven't seen you take it out. ”

Zhou Meizheng had a sad face, and when he heard his daughter's words, his face lit up, and he grabbed it and threw it into the box.

"Don't move."

It was the first time Tong Li saw her mother being fierce to her, and she pouted, "I'm just going to see." ”

Originally, I was not curious about the bracelet, but when I was given by my mother, it aroused my curiosity.

Zhou Mei stuffed everything back into the box, pressed the bracelet at the bottom, closed the lid and put it back in the cabinet.

When he went back to the bed, he picked up the deed and put it in his pocket, and when he went out to cook, he told his daughter, "Don't tell your dad about this beforehand." ”

"Got it."

Zhou Mei went to cook, Tong Li secretly went back to the cabinet again, turned out the box, took out the bracelet and put it in her pocket, and then put the things back in their place, and then returned to the house as if nothing happened.

Seeing that her mother didn't notice it, when she returned to her house, Tong Li took out the bracelet and played with it in her hand, thinking what this thing was, and her mother was so nervous when she saw it.

She tried to put it on her hand, but it was too small to put it on, and after playing with it for a while, she didn't find it interesting, and then asked her to throw the bracelet aside.

In the evening, after Tong Shi heard that his daughter was going to open a clothing store, he didn't say anything, Zhou Mei was hiding things in his heart, and he didn't talk much.

How about the Zhou family, Tong Lin didn't care, calculated the days, according to Li Weidong's speed, they would almost arrive home the day after tomorrow.

It takes at least half a day to load things, and it will take four days to come back on the same day.

At this time, Li Weidong was also thinking about his daughter-in-law, raised his eyes to look at Fan Er and Xu Hai, and had a gloomy face.

Fan Ergan laughed twice, "Dongzi, let's hurry overnight, we will get home tomorrow, load things in the morning, we can set off in the afternoon, and we can return to H City the day after tomorrow." ”

Xu Hai also said, "It's not that we don't want to tell you after we know it, it's that we haven't been able to find a chance, and then we set off to go back to our hometown, and we forgot about it, and I just remembered it today." ”

It turned out that the two were chatting on the road today, and then they told them what they heard in the dance hall that day that someone liked Tong Lin.

After Li Weidong found out, his face was gloomy all the time, and Fan Er and Xu Hai's backs were cold.

"Drive well, and I'll settle accounts with you later." Li Weidong closed his eyes, "Pay attention to safety." ”

Two: .... I have to say that after having a sister-in-law, Dongzi is really not nonsense.

But hearing this, the two also breathed a sigh of relief.

The three of them drove in turns, and returned to the village before dawn the next day, driving directly to the foot of the mountain.

No one came back from the yard for a few days, and it was still clean, just a few more fallen leaves.

Li Weidong has always been in a bad mood, but the moment he opened the warehouse, his heart was hit hard.

In the past, all the idle jars in the barn were used, there were four or five jars, and there were bags at the door, and he opened them to take a look, and they were all chestnuts and walnuts that he had picked up.

And on one side of the house was a pile of firewood that had been picked up, taller than him.

In the days when he was away, his daughter-in-law was waiting for him to come back, and he did so many things, and his daughter-in-law had a good life.
