Chapter 23
"You kill a thousand knives, I told you not to gamble, but you still want to gamble. Now that you are fine, you owe a debt of 40 to [-] yuan, and you have paid off the storefront. It depends on what you can pay back."
As soon as the Xia Mu brothers picked up their grandparents from the countryside on the second day of the Lunar New Year, the husband and wife in the shop opposite their house started arguing, and even used knives.
"Wow, brother, help grandma, let's go to the other side."
Xia Mu supported his grandfather, and carefully walked around to the other side of the crowd. The couple was having a lively fight, surrounded by people watching.All of them didn't even drive their cars, and all parked on the side of the road to watch the excitement, because the couple fought in the middle of the road and left it there, causing serious traffic jams, and someone had already called the police.
Neither Xia Mu nor Xia Shu like to join in the fun, if they hurt their grandparents just to watch the fun, Xia Mu will definitely slap himself.So they returned home as if they didn't see it, thinking that this matter would never involve the Xia family. Who knows that sometimes fate is really strange, if you don't provoke it, it will find you.
In the evening, the Xia family was preparing for dinner, and the family was all seated when there was a knock on the door.
"I gonna go see."
As the youngest person in the family, Xia Mu stood up without hesitation.
"Huh~"
Through the cat's eyes, Xia Mu saw that the person who knocked on the door was the couple who fought in the morning. Didn't it mean that they were taken away by the police for criticism and education?Back so soon?
"Dad, Mom, they are the Wang family couple who live in the opposite house." Not only did the couple face each other in the store, but they even lived in the same house.
"Let me do it!"
The two sons have already told them what happened in the morning. Dad Xia felt that it would not be so easy for the couple to come to the door now, so he decided to deal with it by himself. The youngest son is still young and lacks a little in terms of interpersonal relationships.
"Dad, be careful."
Xia Mu saw that the couple's faces were not very good-looking, and it is said that they owed a lot of debts outside. If he heard correctly this morning, their shop has already been mortgaged.
"Dad knows, Dad has traveled more roads than you have eaten salt!"
Father Xia patted his son on the shoulder, even the youngest son was taller than him, so he could finally feel relieved.
I don't know why, but Xia Mu always felt that his right eyelid was twitching violently. In the end, he was still worried and quietly stood behind the door. There was a cabinet as tall as one person. Just can't see him.
Dad Xia opened the door. Like their house, there are two doors, one is the inner wooden door, and the other is the outer iron door. After Xia Dad opened the iron door, he welcomed the Wang family couple in.
"Brothers of the Wang family and younger siblings, sit down, and I'll make tea for you."
Because his son was standing behind the cabinet, Dad Xia cleverly led him to the living room, where he could see each other between the living room and the dining room, but he couldn't see Xia Mu behind the cabinet.At this time, the people in the dining room went to see Xia Mu's movements clearly, and they all pretended not to pay attention to eating with their bowls.
"Brother Xia, thank you very much." The man from the Wang family held the bag tightly and put it at his feet, while his wife sat next to him.
Xia Mu quietly watched the eyes and expressions of Wang and his wife through the gap of the wooden cabinet, and always felt that their behavior was a bit strange.Normally, shouldn't they try to raise money at home?Why did you come to Xia's house?Although the two families live opposite each other, in fact, the two families seldom communicate with each other, that is, the relationship of nodding to each other when they meet on the road.
"Brother Xia, we actually came here today to borrow some money from you. You also know that my family owes a lot of debts. If I don't pay them back, they will kill me."
The man from the Wang family is called Wang Cai, and his parents gave him this name in the hope that he would make a lot of money. Originally, at the age of forty, he already had a house and a not-so-small shop in the city, which was already regarded as a privilege. Rich, at least in their village is definitely rich.
But this person couldn't resist the temptation from the outside, and accidentally fell in love with gambling. Not only did he lose all his family's savings, but he also took out the shop as a mortgage in exchange for money to continue gambling. With the note that he mortgaged the shop, he had to take the shop if he couldn't get the money. Although he owed a lot of money, his shop was not only priced at three or four hundred thousand!
You must know that they are close to the city center, and his shop is not too small, at least worth millions, and it was taken away as a gambling debt of 40 to [-] yuan. How could Wang Cai and his wife be willing to do it.
But those collectors of gambling debts would not reason with them, Wang Cai himself wrote the pledge, and the people from the underground casino originally wanted to collect the storefront, so they came to force Wang Cai.Compared with the money of 40 or 100, the shop fools with more than [-] million will know which one to choose.Even if they don't run their own business, they can make hundreds of thousands of dollars just by changing hands. For people like them, the more money the better.
"But my family has no money! You know, although my family also has a shop, but we don't operate it ourselves, we rent it out, and I have three children to raise, and their living expenses and tuition fees cost tens of thousands a year. , and our family's own expenses, our family can't afford much money in a year, so the family really has no money to borrow."
Papa Xia paused while making tea and said, Wang Cai used money to gamble. He met him once before, and he kindly persuaded him, but unfortunately he didn't listen, and directly said that he was jealous of his own fortune, and scolded Papa Xia. Since then, Father Xia has stopped interacting with the Wang family, and Mother Xia usually doesn’t talk to the women of the Wang family. This person who is addicted to gambling will not only affect his own family, but also the people around him. The Xia family is a good citizen. It is right for people to come and go.
"Brother Xia, don't lie to me. Although you have three children in your family, there is no one around us who doesn't know that your children receive scholarships every year. I heard that Xia Mu received tens of thousands when he was admitted to university this time. You The two children usually work outside to earn money, not to mention an extra 10 yuan, should your family have it?"
Wang Cai's face has become serious, he has been forced to nowhere, his relatives have never had much money, and they all farm in the countryside, so they earn hard money all year round, which is not enough for him to gamble!The people in the underground casino only gave him two days to raise money. If he couldn't raise more money, Wang Cai's shop would be confiscated. He had worked hard for decades to earn such a shop, and Wang Cai would never let go of it.
Moreover, he not only owed gambling debts from underground casinos, but also owed money to some people who had business dealings with him, adding up to 30 to 70.If those people heard the news and came to ask for money, he would have to face a debt of [-] to [-] yuan, and he might have to sell his home to pay off the debt.Wang Cai is not even willing to let go of his shop, let alone his current house in the city.
As for how to repay the borrowed money, he has never thought about it. Anyway, it is the uncle who owes the money now, and there is nothing he can do if he does not pay back the money.
"Really not, my family has a large population, and I can barely scrape together a few thousand dollars in expenses, one hundred thousand..."
Dad Xia is not stupid. Wang Cai owes a lot of debts now. If he borrows the money, he will definitely not be able to get it back. The most fearful thing is that he will take the money and run away. Where will he find someone then?And my family really doesn't know him well, okay?Who would lend 10 yuan to someone who is not familiar with his family!Is this Wang Cai out of his mind to ask him to borrow money?It is estimated that he has long forgotten what he said to scold him before, thinking that he is meddling in his own business and disturbing his time to make money.
"So you won't borrow it?"
Wang Cai picked up the bag and looked at Papa Xia gloomyly. His wife beside him was a little hesitant and kept looking at the bag in his hand.
"dad."
Seeing this, Xia Mu hurriedly ran out from behind the cabinet and came to Dad Xia as fast as he could, and snatched the bag from Wang Cai before he could react.
"what are you doing?"
Wang Cai was shocked and wanted to grab the bag.Xia Mu is not an ordinary person, he dodged Wang Cai nimbly and opened the bag directly.
"Knife?"
Inside were two butcher knives.
"Dad, call the police."
It was self-evident what Wang Cai wanted to do when he came to their house with a knife.
"Okay, okay." Dad Xia hurriedly took out his mobile phone and called 110, and everyone in the dining room also ran out when they heard the noise.They kept their ears up to listen to the movement outside, and rushed out as soon as they found that they were not moving.
"Are you all at home?"
Wang Cai looked at the Xia family in astonishment. Didn't the Xia family all go out in the afternoon?Only Dad Xia is at home.
"Huh? Are you surprised we're at home?" Xia Mu raised his eyebrows. The family went out in the afternoon, taking Grandpa and Grandma Xia to swim in the lake.It's all because of the colder weather, halfway through the lake they came back early because they were worried about Grandpa Xia's health, originally they planned to eat outside at night, but Dad Xia stayed alone because of his joint pain these two days. at home.
"..."
Only then did Wang Cai realize that it was a mistake for him to come to Xia's family to borrow money today, and he shouldn't have come.But now the other party has called the police, and the eldest son and daughter of the Xia family are guarding the door, and even the two old people are holding a stool and looking at him.The two old people have worked in the countryside all year round, and their strength is much stronger than those who are used to the city.
Surrounded by the entire Xia family, the Wang family man and his wife did not run away until the police came to take them away. Of course, someone from the Xia family also took notes. As for the two knives that almost became murder weapons, they were also taken away by the police. up.
Afterwards, the Xia family was all relieved. Fortunately, they came back early today. If Dad Xia was the only one in the family, everyone couldn't imagine what the consequences would be.Maybe they'll have to hang white cloths on New Year's Day to turn a happy event into a mourning one.Thinking of Grandpa Xia and Grandma Xia's heart-wrenching pain, sending a white-haired person to a black-haired person is one of the most painful things in the world.
As soon as the Xia Mu brothers picked up their grandparents from the countryside on the second day of the Lunar New Year, the husband and wife in the shop opposite their house started arguing, and even used knives.
"Wow, brother, help grandma, let's go to the other side."
