When we were eating at noon, I told Auntie He about the matter of getting a godson, Auntie He was also so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and kept saying that my dad was their family's benefactor, Old He hasn't been this happy in the past few years, and he even got such a good godson! As for the matter of my marriage with Xiyuan, Uncle He didn't mention a single word, but from the gaze and expression he looked at me with, I could deeply feel his peculiar feelings, it was completely the appearance of a father-in-law looking at his son-in-law!
Facing this kind of gaze, I could only pretend that I didn't know anything, and buried my head in eating. To be honest, after getting used to eating delicacies, occasionally eating these rural farmer's dishes did have a different flavor. Unknowingly, I actually ate one more bowl of rice than usual.
"Oh yeah, Old He, don't you have a younger son? Where did he go? "After my dad drank three rounds, he noticed that there was one less person at home!
"At school, our home is too far away from the school, so it's inconvenient to go back and forth, so he's living at school!" said Uncle He.
"Oh yeah, Uncle He, did you get enough for little bro's school fees?" I suddenly thought of a very important problem, the reason why He Xiyuan went to work in the city was to get enough money for her younger brother's school fees!
"Ai! Where would I get the money! Even the money for my treatment was borrowed! " Said Uncle He. "Huwa's (Uncle He's son's nickname) teacher is a good person, he communicated with the school, and let the child go to school first, we will pay the school fees after we get enough."
Hearing that, my dad took out his wallet without saying anything, but in this day and age, who would carry a lot of money in their pockets! Adding that my dad left in a hurry in the morning, and didn't bring much money, he spent fifty kuai on the taxi, so he only had less than a hundred kuai left in his wallet. My dad was so awkward that he didn't know what to do, if he took out the money, he really couldn't take it out, if he didn't, what was he doing now! Feeling helpless, he could only shift his gaze towards my mom, and prepare to ask for help from her.
Actually, from the moment my dad opened his wallet, my mom already knew what happened! But now that I left in such a hurry, I didn't even carry my bag, and didn't bring any money, so when my eyes met with my dad's, I couldn't help but shake my head helplessly.
Seeing my dad's awkwardness, I quickly took out my wallet from my pocket, and took out a stack of hundred yuan bills and said to Uncle He, "Ganpa, take this money and use it first. We left in a hurry this morning, and didn't bring much cash! If it's not enough, just give me a call! "
Don't ask me why I didn't go to the bank to withdraw more money. There was no bank in this poor place, only a rural credit union. At this time, there was no concept of Unionpay. I didn't even have a passbook for a credit union.
"This … How can this be?! Take it back quickly, how can I take your money! "Uncle He quickly waved his hand and said.
"Godfather, you're treating me like an outsider. I'm your godson, which means I'm Huwa's godbrother. It's natural for an older brother to pay for his younger brother's education." I said in a dignified manner, making Uncle He unable to refuse.
"But … This money is a bit too much …" Uncle He received the stack of banknotes, and estimated it, there was at least three to four thousand kuai.
"Old He, it's rare for your godson to have such good intentions, just accept it!" My dad persuaded. Only then did my dad believe that his son was truly rich, and would casually carry several thousand kuai when he goes out.
Uncle He thought about it, since Old Liu already said that, then it wouldn't be proper for him to refuse. What's more, his family was truly lacking in money! With his relationship with Old Liu back then, they were even closer than real brothers. They ate the same bowl of rice, slept on the same bed, and wore the same pants. Now that he was giving him money, he wasn't embarrassed about taking it! Thus, he didn't say anything else, and put the money away, "This money is enough for a year of our family's income from the orchard! If I knew that I had such a promising son, why would I go and find that Jia Daguo! "
Getting reminded by Uncle He, I suddenly remembered, I almost forgot the purpose of coming this time, it was to get even with that Jia Daguo! Thus, I used the excuse of going to the washroom, and went outside to call Guo Qing.
"Boss, what's wrong with you, you left without saying anything, me and a bunch of bros are still stupidly waiting at the entrance of the village to bask in the sun! You made those civilians think that we're some kind of gangsters, and stayed far away from us! "The moment the call connected, Guo Qing complained loudly.
"Hehe, sorry, sorry!" I said. "Ai? That's not right, what do you mean by think that you're gangsters? Are you not? "
"Boss, this is different, gangsters are criminals, I already thought about it, I'm going to set up a company," Guo Qing said with a smile. "I know that if I continue like this, I'm already standing on the edge, so I have to stop before it's too late!"
"If you can think like that, then I'm very happy, but let's talk about this later." I started to get down to business, "Go and find a person for me, he's called Jia Daguo, he's the son of the village chief of Zhendong Village, he has a lot of background in this area, I think he's also someone in the society, help me find him!"
"No problem!" Guo Qing replied. "What do we do after we find him? Get rid of him? "
"Get rid of your head! Do you feel that the days are too easy, so you want to go in and stay? If you really cause something huge, even I can't protect you! "I scolded.
"No problem, I'll go and find dasao!" Guo Qing laughed sinisterly.
"Whatever, then see if she can do anything for you without me!" I thought to myself, even your dasao's dad is working for me, who are you going to find! If you really do something and go beg Zhao Yanyan's grandpa, with Grandpa Zhao's righteous personality, he will definitely send you to jail first!
"Hehe!" Guo Qing laughed. "I know, I know what I'm doing! I was just kidding. "
"Then that's it, after you find him, watch him first, find a place with no people and catch him, then wait for me to come over at night!" I instructed.
After eating, our whole family sat in the courtyard and chatted, it was rare for Uncle He to be in a good mood, so he made an exception and sat in the courtyard to bask in the sun.
"Ganba, how much does Jia Daguo owe you in total?" I asked.
"Ai! It might not be much to you, it's only three thousand something kuai, but at that time, it was life-saving money for our family, Xiao Xi and Hu Wazi relied on this to pay their school fees! However from the looks of it now, I was too impulsive back then! Risking my life for three thousand kuai! "Uncle He sighed and said.
"Don't worry Uncle He, I will definitely get an explanation for you," I said seriously. Three thousand kuai might not even be enough for me to eat at a high class restaurant, but that wasn't the case! The amount of money was secondary, the main thing was that this Jia Daguo actually dared to cause trouble for my family! I was just fretting that I had nothing to do, then he came.
