Chapter 25 Chapter 25 Guoguo, I am the best, you don’t have to…

Jiang Hongguo took out the two bags of tea she brought with her, saying they were specialties from her hometown and not bought with money. She looked at the expression on Xiao Sun's face and saw that he was even more worried than in the morning. Changzong did not come back from driving lessons, but her husband came back early. Was he driven back by his master?

Changzong was feeling jealous, so Jiang Hongguo didn't ask too many questions. He gave him some tea and prepared to leave. Xiaosun wanted to return the favor, so he took a bag of dried bamboo shoots and said that he had never seen Hongguo's children, so he came over to take a look.

Jiang Hongguo felt that she had something to say. In the store that morning, everyone was still unfamiliar with each other. It was hard to refuse someone who said he came to see the child, and there was no reason to not let him see the child. She glanced at him and saw that the little Sun man had been standing silently aside from now on. His gloomy expression had not changed, and his fierce look was very scary.

If Xiao Sun hadn't been here, Jiang Hongguo would have been scared and went home long ago. She remembered that it was no wonder that Xiao Sun's ex-husband's family only dared to go to the store to look for Xiao Sun, and only dared to let relatives go. With such a big guy, who would dare to come to the door?

The little one was sleeping, and when the little grandson saw how cute the child was, he praised him several times.

Seeing that she had no intention of leaving, Jiang Hongguo made some tea, took some biscuits, and sat in the main room to talk: "Xiao Sun, you came back so early in the afternoon, is there something wrong?"

Sun Aiqin drank half of her tea before she spoke: "My husband didn't want to help the master's family. He couldn't even deliver cigarettes and alcohol to the master. He was driven back by the master. I thought, when your husband learns to drive, I will teach him."

Changzong is jealous of Xiao Sun's man. Even if he is not jealous, Changzong will not talk to him. There is no way to teach him.

Jiang Hongguo came here to collect debts, so how could she interfere in other people's family affairs? Besides, it was only the second day after she moved in, and Xiao Sun made this request, which was quite abrupt.

Jiang Hongguo said, "Sister Sun, I speak directly. If you are unhappy with what I say, you can just turn around and leave. You know in your heart what the problem is with your man. If he doesn't change, how can he work if he can't even get along with the driver who taught him to drive? Which leader or colleague would like him? He will suffer too. If your family can still make ends meet, why don't you give it a break for now?"

What Jiang Hongguo said made sense, Xiao Sun just chose to ignore it, but the problem still exists.

She put down her teacup sadly and said, "It's not easy for him. He doesn't want to be idle and wants to find something to help me share the financial pressure. It's hard for him."

Jiang Hongguo thought about it and said, "Sister Shan said that you get commissions from selling antiques, and your salary is good. Does your husband have to have a job right away? I heard that he has suffered a lot, so he should take a break and relax."

Xiao Sun said that her life was okay, but she owed a huge debt, a lot of it, and she was worried.

"My husband's family didn't let me pay it back before and wanted me to default on it. After the divorce, I was determined to pay it back. When he found out, he wanted to help me pay it back. No matter what I said, I couldn't change his mind. He is such a fool."

Jiang Hongguo suddenly realized that the huge debt that Xiao Sun was talking about could not be the IOU left by Chang Zong's grandmother? Otherwise, how could there be another debt?

It turns out that the person wanted to pay it back, but he just doesn't have the ability to do so now.

Jiang Hongguo misunderstood her and felt a little uneasy. She asked, "Xiao Sun, I want to ask, it's only the second day since I moved in, why did you ask me and Chang Zong to help?"

Xiao Sun was also confused: "Didn't Gu Changzong tell you? During the years when he went to the countryside, I sent him some money."

Seeing Jiang Hongguo's expression that showed he really had no idea, Xiao Sun became annoyed and tried to persuade Jiang Hongguo not to take it to heart.

"I really don't know that you don't know. Hongguo, don't go to reconcile the accounts with Changzong. Don't let it affect your relationship as husband and wife."

Jiang Hongguo remembered that half a year before she and Gu Zhiqing got married, he had received two packages. Hongguo asked him about it, and he said they were sent by his grandmother's students, but he didn't say which one, nor did he show her what was in the package. He just took out the food and gave it to her.

It turned out that it was sent by Xiao Sun, so it was not surprising at all that someone asked Changzong for help today.

Jiang Hongguo blushed uneasily. If she said she was willing to help now, it would seem insincere, and she couldn't make the decision for Changzong.

After sending Xiao Sun away, Jiang Hongguo felt lost for a while. She fed the little one milk powder. The little one was very well behaved and smiled at her to make her happy.

Jiang Hongguo felt even more guilty. She couldn't bring pessimistic emotions to the little one. Although the child was young, he actually knew it. The same went for Changzong. She couldn't bring bad emotions to him.

Chang Zong came back in the evening and talked about learning to drive with great interest: "Guo Guo, those drivers don't make money from wages. They drive long distances and can earn at least two or three hundred yuan for a private trip."

Now she can drive a truck and earn money, but also because she earns enough, she is unwilling to endure her man's bad face for Xiao Sun's small gift.

Jiang Hongguo felt that Xiao Sun's man might be that kind of person. People who look ferocious are sometimes not bad. Bad people's character is not only written on their faces. Bad people are cunning and can disguise themselves.

Jiang Hongguo asked: "Is Xiao Sun still going to study?"

Chang Zong's answer seemed to show that he had no heart towards his fellow countrymen, which made Jiang Hongguo feel worried.

"He should have died last time. He can't change it. He still looks dead. He deserves it."

Jiang Hongguo's heart ached. If Changzong thought of others like this, others would think of him the same way. She hoped that when Changzong needed help, there would be one less person to pour cold water on him.

However, she really didn't understand why Changzong and his fellow villagers could remain indifferent when they watched each other suffer and die, even though Changzong was obviously a very good person.

Jiang Hongguo didn't say anything, and her expression faded. Gu Changzong felt that he had said something wrong. He said that Xiao Sun's man deserved to die. Did Hongguo think he was too cold-blooded?

Gu Changzong didn't even eat, feeling uneasy: "Guoguo, are you angry?"

Seeing how cautious he was, Jiang Hongguo quickly put away her sympathy for others. She wanted to protect Changzong's safety first.

Jiang Hongguo had finished eating, put down her chopsticks, sat next to Changzong, and held his hand.

Gu Changzong's anxiety subsided. Hongguo was not angry. She still liked him as much as before. He would do whatever Hongguo asked him to do.

Jiang Hongguo said, "Chang Zong, I'm not angry. I'm just thinking about how you advised me to save some face for Aunt Liu. I won't advise you to help anyone between Xiao Sun and her man, but you need friends. If you don't treat others with sincerity, you won't make true friends. If I hadn't treated Aunt Liu with sincerity before, no one would have come to my house to accompany me when you went out to do things. Everything is new for us in the provincial capital. I hope you can make one or two true friends. It will be really good. Believe me."

Changzong had good communication skills and had no shortage of friends with whom he could drink and do business. However, none of them were from his hometown. When he really encountered problems in his hometown, he had no one to discuss it with.

Gu Changzong now understood that Hongguo was sad because she was worried about him, not because she felt sorry for others.

He now felt that what Hongguo said made sense. If he thought about it another way, as long as Xiao Sun's man was no longer pitiful, Hongguo might not even look at him.

Gu Changzong was very happy after figuring it out: "Guoguo, I know what to do now."

Jiang Hongguo couldn't rest assured since it was so unclear, so she had to ask, "Then tell me, what are you going to do?"

If it were before, Gu Changzong would do nothing but watch from afar, even if the other person died he would just watch.

What Hongguo said now was all for the purpose of making him live a better life, and he couldn't let Hongguo down.

Gu Changzong replied: "Guoguo, this is what I think. Xiao Sun's family is so poor now, you won't collect the debt on the IOU. When her family is no longer poor and has money, you can collect the debt and you don't have to worry about me. How great is that."

It's already very good to be able to think of this extent. Hongguo cannot force Changzong to do things according to her personality, otherwise he will become a puppet.

She immediately rewarded him by biting his neck gently, making him tremble.

Gu Changzong didn't expect there would be a reward, so he didn't even eat, and took Hongguo back to the room, saying expectantly, "Guoguo, wait for me for a while, I'll feed the little one and take a bath and then I'll come back."

Jiang Hongguo pursed her lips, a gentle look on her face: "I'm not running away, don't worry."

Changzong went to coax the little one. Jiang Hongguo hugged the pillow, her heart warmed thinking about how happy Changzong was. She felt that she had handled things well today.

After a while, Gu Changzong came back refreshed. He didn't exercise restraint last night and came again today. Thinking of the time when he hiked for more than ten hours without getting tired, Jiang Hongguo didn't feel disappointed, so there was no need to worry about his energy.

Gu Changzong was so happy that he did his work quickly and properly. He came back at noon the next day and said to Jiang Hongguo as if to take credit:

"Guoguo, Cheng Qizhen can't do it, so you have to rely on me. I asked him to save the master who taught me how to drive, and the master agreed to take another one. I will be with him for a morning and an afternoon. From now on, I will be at home for half the afternoon. Are you happy?"

Cheng Qizhen is Xiao Sun's man, big and strong, serious and stern. He is completely different from Changzong, who is very adept at dealing with the world and the people.

Jiang Hongguo was very happy and praised: "Changzong, you are so amazing. When Xiao Sun's family gets through the difficulties, I will be able to receive the money. I am so happy."

This is just superficial happiness. What is more gratifying is that Changzong has changed. As long as he makes changes first, he can lead other people to change. He has fellow villagers as friends and is no longer alone.

After learning to drive for half a month, Gu Changzong established connections with the transportation company and was assigned to receive training under the company. Only after the training did he qualify for an internship and then be able to drive a truck with a master from the fleet. Only after passing the internship could he get a truck driver's license.

This driver's license is very useful. It's like having a stable job if you get it, and you can also earn a lot of extra money. In order to use his connections, Changzong not only worked hard, but also asked Hongguo to give him nearly 2,000 yuan as a favor on several occasions. Fortunately, he has some family background, otherwise, without connections and money, he would not be able to learn to drive.

A month later, Changzong entered the transportation company for internship. He gave gifts and used connections, and others tacitly accepted that Cheng Qizhen was with him. The relevant people were moved by Gu Changzong's kindness and turned a blind eye. They stamped Cheng Qizhen's internship certificate, but sent him to a long and somewhat dangerous route that no one else was willing to take, which was just right for him.

On his second trip, Sun beat up the unruly people who were blocking the road and robbing the goods, thus saving the transport company's goods and avoiding losses.

It was such a dangerous route, but with a man in the car who was more ferocious than a robber, he felt completely safe, and no one rejected him at all.

Jiang Hongguo also received the specialties and extra income brought back by Changzong's sports car. On the first trip, he conducted an inspection, and on the second trip, he wholesaled ten electric fans and made a profit of 20 yuan per fan, so 10 fans would make 200 yuan.

Having tasted the sweetness, Gu Changzong became bold and careful. He not only earned extra money with his apprentice master, but also recruited a few masters who ran the same route to join him, and the money he took home became more and more each time.

Jiang Hongguo was terrified and said several times: "Changzong, you will be envied if you make so much money. Wait until you get your driver's license before thinking about making money. Don't put the cart before the horse."

Gu Changzong was feeling excited about the extra income of more than one thousand yuan a month. He thought it was a good deal, but Hong Guo said it was dangerous.

Gu Changzong listened and promised: "Guoguo, I will listen to you. I will spend this thousand dollars, and there will be fewer jealous people. Is that ok?"

Jiang Hongguo felt distressed that he had worked so hard to earn more than a thousand yuan and just treated others to food and drinks.

She didn't show her distress, and smiled and said, "Sure, money is used to help people. If you think spending the money will help you, then spend it."

Gu Changzong took the money with him when he went out socializing, and the money he spent had an effect. The driver's license that he would have gotten at the earliest in the spring of next year could be issued to him before the end of the year after the transportation company completed the formalities.

Changzong got his driver's license, and Xiao Sun's man was able to get it without anyone blocking the process.

Jiang Hongguo felt that the most difficult thing for Xiao Sun's family was finally over. Could she take out the IOU and try to see if she really wanted to pay it back or was just pretending?

She couldn't go to deliver the IOU, so she had to ask Changzong to disguise himself and go.

Gu Changzong was particularly willing to do this. On his days off, he would go out with his bag during the day and no one knew where he went to disguise himself.

Jiang Hongguo is now very confident in Chang Zong's work, and she doesn't want to call him back today, but just to test him. He went out in the afternoon and should be back before dark. The couple often stay at home for half a day, so no one will suspect Chang Zong.

When it was dark, Changzong came back. Jiang Hongguo saw that his clothes were wrinkled and covered in dust. Did he have a fight with someone?

That would be terrible. Either he would cripple the other person, or he would suffer a loss.

Jiang Hongguo hurriedly asked him how he got into this situation. Last time he collected several houses at once, he was not in such a mess. Who did he conflict with today?

"Did you start a fight with someone?"

The person who could bring dirt to Changzong must not be an ordinary person. Jiang Hongguo was very worried.

Gu Changzong gritted his teeth and kept calling Xiao Sun's man a disgusting bastard. He admitted that he had a fight with him and told Hong Guo not to be disappointed in him. He said that the matter had been resolved and there was just a small accident.

"Don't think that he is several dozen pounds heavier than me. It's useless. I am much stronger than him. He suffered a great loss, and I beat him up badly. Guoguo, I am the strongest. You don't have to envy others."

Jiang Hongguo was angry, but couldn't bear to hit him. Why was he still saying this at this time? She hurriedly undressed him and said, "I don't believe it unless you let me take a good look."

"Then look." Gu Changzong was so obedient that he unbuttoned his shirt himself.
