Chapter 4
“You calm down, I think now Xiuqin is not seriously hurt is the most important thing. Liu Chunping this mother…this comrade, everyone in the village knows what kind of goods she is, and I’m happy to be a witness for you, it’s just that if you return the money to them, doesn’t the child still have to go to school? Xiuqin’s hospitalization also costs money, right?”
Although the village chief is not a big official, at least he is in charge of dozens of families in the village.
Normally, we have a lot of meetings, and we drink a lot of tea.
Wearing a Chinese tunic suit and a liberation cap makes him look like a leader.
Xia Zhimin jerked his hair and frowned.
“And then think of a way, you can always borrow a few more to get by, the main thing is to collect that money in our heart diaphragm.”
Xia Zhimin is a loyal person, as long as he is willing to put down his face
Three thousand dollars wasn’t hard to borrow, and Zhao Shuzhong had a reason for asking that one.
He has two sons. The oldest is married.
The second one hasn’t married yet. He didn’t go to college, but he did go to high school.
After graduation, He worked in the purchasing department of a supply and marketing cooperative, where there was a lot of work.
The second is more active than the eldest. The Mayor has high hopes for him.
At 22, it’s time to get married and find someone, but the second one’s got his sights set pretty high.
The Xia family has four daughters.
Xia He is about the same age as the second child, and this girl Xia He is a college student.
She’s not bad, he’s also the one who saw her growing up when She was young.
She’s sweet and understanding, and She’s filial to her parents.
Sister Youai, Zhao Shuzhong and his wife both fall in love with Xia He.
Want to ask Xia He to be his second child’s wife, but Xia He is a college student.
Those who can get a job as a teacher after graduation may not necessarily like their own children.
They say it’s easy to add flowers, but hard to send charcoal in the snow.
Zhao Shuchong wanted to be the one to deliver the charcoal in the snow, no matter if the two children could make it in the future or not
This good feeling has to be stretched.
“Zhimin, we brother and sister have known each other for so many years, why bother to seek far and near, I, Lao Zhao, have more than enough, a few thousand dollars can still be freed up.”
This is the meaning of the initiative to borrow money, Xia Zhimin did not react for a moment.
Zhao Shuchong mentioned it again, deliberately joking that.
“What, don’t believe I can come up with the money?”
Xia Zhimin quickly waved his hands and said that he didn’t mean it.
“I just didn’t expect it, at this time of the year everyone meets halfway hate to go around me, just afraid that I’ll open my mouth, I know you’re kind, I’ll take this favor.”
“That’s right. Who do I admire the most in the whole village? One is Zhao San that boy, and the other is you. It’s not easy for your daughter to get into college, so you can wait to enjoy the blessings in the future.”
Zhao San is a villager from Shuiliu Village, he used to risk his business during the crackdowns.
He was caught by the police several times, and when the policy was changed in the late 1980s.
He started his business bright and early on the streets in the beginning.
Stalls, then rented storefronts in town.
Now the business has gone to the capital, and the family has built the first house in the village.
Repairing the bridge and repairing the road didn’t make much effort, giving Zhao Shuzong, the village head, a lot of gold on his face.
As long as he walks out, people will know
The road in Shuiliu Village is the smoothest and the best. The gravel road doesn’t even get muddy when it rains.
The bridge in their village was also the strongest, with railings around the sides
No need to worry about accidentally falling into the river.
Since the mayor promised Xia Zhimin, he called Xia Zhijun and Liu Chunping to his home.
Xia Zhimin returned the money face to face, three thousand whole, and added ten dollars of interest.
Xia Zhijun’s face went flushed and blanched, whitened and reddened, looking at Xia Zhimin in bewilderment and shame.
“What do you intend to do, Zhimin? Your family needs this money, why are you giving it back to me?”
If Xia Zhimin is not in a hurry to use the money, there is no need to borrow money.
Two days after borrowing it, he returned it in front of the Mayor.
Doesn’t this make Xia Zhijun look ugly?
Liu Chunping rarely sits on the side and doesn’t say anything, She’s not the kind of person who doesn’t know what she’s doing.
Although she felt in her heart that Li Xiuqin had no business seeking death by drinking medicine, but it did have something to do with her.
And she kept remembering the way Xia Zhimin looked at herself before sending Li Xiuqin to the hospital.
It’s like a knife. It’s a far cry from the usual honesty and loyalty, it made her a little wary.
It shows that she’s always been a troublemaker.
But it’s because she hasn’t met anyone who can show her the error of her ways.
Xia Zhimin insisted on paying back the money, but Xia Zhijun wouldn’t accept it.
He then placed it on the surface of the table next to Xia Zhijun’s hand.
“I have caused so many troubles for this money. If I had known it would be like this, I would never have spoken. I thought that we are brothers, and we should be closer than others. If there is a problem at home, I will go to someone else without you first. I’m afraid you know. Will be unhappy.”
There is a reason for this, human society.
It’s all about closeness and proximity. If you’re in trouble, you’ll definitely go to your closest relatives first.
If he couldn’t help, he looked for other connections, so Xia Zhimin borrowed money.
If not Xia Zhijun, he’ll find someone else first.
When the word gets out, people will think that the brothers are not on good terms with each other.
Xia Zhijun understands this, so this money was not willing to take the money from his brother-in-law at this time.
It took a lot of persuasion to convince him, but who would’ve thought it would end up like this?
A good thing turned out to be a bad thing.
“This time it’s your sister-in-law who is wrong, she was not supposed to gossip, and she herself regrets it, we are going to go to the hospital tomorrow to see Xiuqin, and apologize to her face to face, you can take this money first, and return it when it’s convenient for you, we can’t take it for a while.”
Xia Zhijun said politely, over there Liu Chunping refused to do it, for one thing, she is not willing to go to what apology.
The second is that the repayments can’t be delayed, in case they take eight or ten years.
The boys will need a lot of money for their future marriages.
“Who said it’s not necessary? Xia Hao can’t find a wife to get married, and he can’t spend money on marriage? At most, it will take half a year. The money will definitely have to be paid back.”
Liu Chunping is already on a blind date with her son Xia Hao and Zhang Luo, once the match is suitable, it will be made.
The family has about 10,000 dollars left in savings. It’s enough to get married.
But it is natural to hold one’s own money in one’s own hands for peace of mind.
Xia Zhijun just finished being pulled back by his own wife, angry face blackened
The village chief and Xia Zhimin, they already know what kind of person Liu Chunping is.
Instead, he didn’t take it to heart, and just became a little more certain that this was the right thing to pay back.
