Rebirth of the Great Era 1993

Chapter 13, Debt Collection

It’s December 29th of the lunar calendar. Time flies so fast. Tomorrow is the New Year.

Since this morning, several waves of people have been coming to the Zhang family, including neighbors and people from credit unions, all here to collect debts. They all know that the Zhang family killed a pig yesterday and had some cash.

Sitting in the hall, looking at these familiar faces and hearing their unkind words, the heavy-faced Zhang Xuan did not dislike them. He was even very grateful to them in his heart for being able to lend money to his family to tide over the disaster.

Although he clearly knew that these people could lend money to the Zhang family, except for a small number of them because they had a very good relationship with Ruan Xiuqin, most of them were willing to pay because of the face of their aunt Zhang Ru as a guarantee.

Of course, there are also a very small number of people who just happen to have spare money, and they happen to sympathize with the Zhang family in their hearts, and they are optimistic that Zhang Xuan will most likely become a college student, so they borrow it...

Although most of the loans were not in vain and had to be repaid with interest, Zhang Xuan still respectfully poured a cup of tea for everyone with a correct attitude and expressed his gratitude.

Ruan Xiuqin was very direct. She took out all the cash in the family, including Zhang Xuan's royalties and the money for killing pigs, and then repaid a portion of the debt in proportion to the money borrowed by each family, so that no one would go home empty-handed during the Chinese New Year.

Then he said all the nice things in a low voice...

Everyone knew what the Zhang family was like, and seeing that Ruan Xiuqin was so straightforward, even though some of them said unpleasant things, they didn't force them too much, and they all left after taking some money.

After the person left, Ruan Xiuqin, who had been sent to the door in person, suddenly lost all strength, turned pale, and slumped down on the threshold.

"Mom!" Zhang Xuan and Zhang Ping, one on the left and the other on the right, helped her with quick eyesight and asked worriedly: "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine."

Ruan Xiuqin waved her hands and sat up straight, and then said gently to the two siblings: "Remember these people today carefully. These people are the benefactors of our Zhang family. If you two have conflicts with them in the future, please make concessions if you can." .”

"Yeah." Zhang Ping hummed emotionally.

Zhang Xuan was silent and said nothing, with mixed feelings in his heart.

In fact, he still has some money in his room, more than 2,100. 1,000 of them were mailed to me by unknown well-wishers, and the rest were my hidden royalties.

He is not selfish, but wants to save money and do something to make a lot of money in the future. Otherwise, if you earn a penny for a penny like this, money cannot make money. How long will it take for the Zhang family’s tens of thousands of yuan in foreign debt to be repaid?

In the afternoon, Ruan Xiuqin went out.

Ruan Xiuqin said that only some of the creditors came to the door this morning, and some of them did not come. Although they did not come to force the Zhang family, the Zhang family wanted to give people an explanation. This is a human attitude.

Ruan Xiuqin went out on the front foot, and Zhang Ping on the back foot carried a bamboo basket and went out to get pigweed in the soil. Yesterday, one pig was killed, but there were still three pigs in the pen. They were squealing every day and wanted to eat a lot.

Zhang Xuan did not go to help get pigweed, but used an ax and saw to prepare firewood for the New Year. This was also a big job.

Splitting firewood is a skilled job, and it is also a laborious job, but no matter what, it is a dirty and tiring job.

6 dry pine trees thicker than vegetable bowls, this is the task he must complete today.

After cutting down three large pine trees for half an hour, Zhang Xuan felt very tired. His arm holding the saw was a little weak, so he had to rest first.

It was too hot, so he took off the blue sweater outside and took another sip of hot water. He actually saw the fat kid from his neighbor walking on the road. Thinking of his strength, he smiled decisively at him.

Although the fat kid was not good at reading, he was not stupid. He came over and said, "Zhang Xuan, you are so bad, and you want me to help you work again."

Zhang Xuan quibbled, "No, I just want you to guide me and encourage me. After all, I don't do this much and I'm a novice."

"Tch! Whoever believes it is a puppy." Having said that, the fat kid still sat down.

Zhang Xuan started sawing the fourth pine tree again, and while exerting force, he asked: "Why are you alone today? Are your parents not at home?"

The fat kid said: "They went to Xinhua Railway Station to pick up my sister."

"Is your sister coming back from her side job today?"

"Yes, I also brought a boyfriend."

"Where?"

"I heard it's from Pudong."

"Shanghai Pudong?"

"Yes, this is the place for birds."

Based on his memory, Zhang Xuan said with emotion: "There are many rich people in this poor place, and your family is going to make a fortune."

After chatting for a while, Zhang Xuan ran out of energy after being busy for a while and was ready to take a rest.

At this time, the fat kid sitting on the tree couldn't see it anymore and urged him: "There is still a tree that has not been cut down. You are so soft and weak. You have grown so tall in vain."

"Didn't you see that I sawed three trees in front of me?"

"That's not good either."

"Yes, how about you come?" Zhang Xuan handed over the saw with a look of contempt.

The fat kid rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll do it, I'll do it. Just keep an eye on me. I can't read you, and you three Zhang Xuan are no match for me when it comes to work."

"Really? You can prove it to me today."

"Zhang Xuan, you are a piece of shit, you just want to trick me into chopping firewood for you."

"..."

Two hours later, the six pine trees quickly turned into a pile of debris.

The fat kid was sweating profusely while eating an orange and said, "Do you admit that I am better than you?"

Zhang Xuan, who was exhausted and paralyzed, nodded like a little chicken and said while drinking hot water: "You will be my big brother from now on, so you have to protect me."

"Hey hey hey..." The fat kid made a pig noise.

After chopping the firewood, he moved it to the eaves and stacked it. Seeing that his eldest sister was still busy cooking pig food in the backyard, Zhang Xuan walked into the kitchen to prepare dinner.

But after Zhang Ping saw it, he refused.

She snatched Shengzi who was beating the rice and said very seriously: "Brother, if you haven't read a book today, you should go and read a book. The college entrance examination will be held in half a year. You must fight for your family's reputation and take the exam." Great university, don’t let people laugh at us anymore.”

"..."

Although I know that the eldest sister's straightforward expression is also true.

But for some reason, Zhang Xuan just didn't like hearing it. These words always reminded him of his second sister's desperate expression when he failed the college entrance examination. He always felt that the Zhang family's life had entered a dark trough, which was long and heavy.

However, due to the short IQ of the eldest sister, Zhang Xuan could not say anything. In the end, he had to smile, say "hmm" and enter his room.

In fact, after being reborn, Zhang Xuan has always felt that one should leave the two and be happy, and it is also a state to decisively bid farewell to the pedantic past.

He is not willing to read stupid books every day, and wants to make a lot of money while studying to change the current situation of his family.

Let the family no longer be weighed down by foreign debt and lose their dignity, and make life easier.

But in this environment, there wasn't much that could be done. He did well in studying and the way he studied hard every day not only made his sister proud, but also his mother couldn't help but like him.

Zhang Xuan, who had too many distracting thoughts and was not pure enough, could not find the feeling of reading, so he had to look at Zhou Huimin on the wall for a while, look at her eyes, look at her lips. Alas, he gradually gained motivation...
