Chapter 128 Gu Tianfeng is here to borrow money
Hearing this, Gu Tianfeng frowned, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
He claimed to be the eldest in the family. Although he was not as successful as Nie Peilan, he was still a person who had a say in the meat processing factory. He lived a comfortable life without pressure. How could he tolerate the younger generation of his brother's family rejecting him?
Gu Zhifeng also understood her brother. She looked back at Gu Tinghuai and said, "You go first."
Gu Tinghuai shrugged, gave Gu Yuehuai a wink, and left home.
As soon as he left, Gu Tianfeng looked at Gu Zhifeng expectantly. He knew that his younger brother valued family affection, and he had taken this into account when he borrowed money from him. He was sure that he would pay it back, and since the interest rate was high, he had to maintain the relationship.
Gu Zhifeng rubbed his hands and said with embarrassment: "Brother, you know my family's conditions. We are so stingy even when we eat meat. Where did we get a hundred yuan? Besides, we have to save all the money for our daughter's dowry."
He was not lying. All the things dug out from the backyard had to be left to his daughter. No one else should be told. Even his sons had no share, let alone his brothers and sisters.
Hearing this, Gu Tianfeng's face drooped.
As the eldest of the family, he still had a lot of prestige. He didn't care that Gu Yuehuai was standing next to him. He opened his mouth and said, "Zhifeng, I'm not saying anything to you, but when your daughter gets married, she will belong to someone else's family. What's the point of you giving her the money? You have three sons in your family. Aren't you going to find wives for them? Do you know how much dowry is needed to marry a daughter-in-law now?"
Gu Zhifeng pursed her lips unhappily and retorted: "How can a son compare to a daughter? We are different."
Seeing this, Gu Tianfeng didn't want to say more and not annoy Gu Zhifeng. Knowing that Gu Zhifeng was a person who would respond to soft words but not hard ones, he immediately put on a faint smile, pulled him to sit on the kang, and decided to reason with him and appeal to his emotions.
Gu Yuehuai suddenly said, "Uncle, let my dad go back to work. All the money in the family is used to pay off debts. There is really no extra money. If you really want to borrow, I can lend you fifty yuan, but you have to write an IOU."
Although my uncle and second aunt had their own ulterior motives when they borrowed the money, they lent it out of family ties.
She accepted the favor, so she was willing to lend fifty dollars, but that was all.
Needless to say, human nature is greedy. If Gu Zhifeng and Gu Yinfeng knew how much money her family had, it would inevitably cause a lot of trouble and it would also easily expose the secret of the treasure behind the house.
"Fifty?" Gu Tianfeng smacked his lips, his expression hesitant for a moment.
However, thinking about the troubles at home, he still smiled and said, "Nannan is still thinking about her uncle. Okay, fifty is fifty. I'll write the IOU. When your brother Gu Jia gets married, I will definitely invite you to have a drink at the wedding!"
Gu Zhifeng was a little surprised and asked, "Gu Jia is getting married? When is it going to happen? What does his partner do?"
Gu Jia is Gu Tianfeng’s son, and he is about the same age as Gu Yuehuai. I didn’t expect that he would get married at such a young age.
"It's almost time to get married." Speaking of this, Gu Tianfeng's eyes were slightly proud, and he continued, "The target is the daughter of our meat processing factory director, the only daughter. Haha, to be honest, we are still marrying up."
Gu Zhifeng nodded, not feeling anything about this, and asked, "How is the woman?"
If he were looking for a daughter-in-law, he would first consider her character. As for her family background, none of that was important. He would marry someone he liked and someone with good character. Then the family would live in harmony and would never go hungry.
But if you really want to marry a troublemaker, haha, even if she is the daughter of a big boss, it’s useless! Sooner or later, we will break up!
Speaking of character, Gu Tianfeng's face changed slightly, and he said vaguely: "Very good, the girl is pretty, and her father is the director of the factory, so her life will definitely be good in the future! Definitely!"
He said "definitely" twice, and it was unclear whether he was saying it to Gu Zhifeng or to convince himself.
Gu Yuehuai glanced at him.
Gu Jia's life in his previous life was not good. The girl was indeed the daughter of the director of a meat processing factory and was indeed pretty, but why would she fall for Gu Jia with such good conditions?
Of course, it's not that Gu Jiaren is not good enough. Her non-blood cousin is not a bad person except that he is a little arrogant. He has been to school and has an educated figure. He is tall and has a very handsome appearance.
However, this is not enough to impress your boss's daughter, you need some "extraordinary qualities", right?
Gu Jia doesn't have this outstanding quality. If he does have one, it is that he is very tolerant!
Because the daughter of the director of the meat processing plant was pregnant before marriage. To put it simply, her cousin Gu Jia was cuckolded, became a father, and raised a baby for someone else. He was very clear about this matter, and Gu Tianfeng seemed to have heard some rumors as well.
Gu Jia's life was sweet for a while after marriage, but things changed after the child was born.
The child looked nothing like Gu Jia, nor like his wife. Every time he was taken out, he would cause a flurry of gossip, because the child looked very much like a small leader in the factory, almost like they were cast in the same mold!
Chinese people love gossip, and rumors were rampant in the factory. Even though Gu Jia knew the truth, he couldn't stand the blatant cuckoldry. He quarreled with his wife every few days and finally ended up in divorce.
Why did she know that?
Because when Gu Jia got divorced, she was temporarily living in Qin Wanjiang's house, relying on Lin Jinshu.
However, it was pointless to think too much about the past, and she was not going to tell anyone about such absurd and weird things, so whether Gu Jia would continue the fate of his previous life had nothing to do with her.
Gu Yuehuai turned around and went back to the house and took out fifty yuan.
When Gu Zhifeng saw the money in her hand, he forgot to ask about Gu Jia. His lips moved, wanting to say something, but when he thought of Gu Tianfeng who was present, he remained silent.
He didn't know how much money his daughter had. Fifty yuan was not a small amount. If it wasn't for him, she would definitely not lend it to him. Those things were supposed to belong to her daughter. How could he have the nerve to spend that money?
Gu Zhifeng felt unhappy and sat on the kang in silence.
Gu Tianfeng looked at it with a slightly delighted look, these were five neat and tidy pictures of unity!
Although his salary was not low, he could not save much money in a month. This time he was able to borrow money, which solved his urgent problem and also put an end to a great worry. He wrote an IOU without hesitation.
As for the interest, it is also five dollars a year.
When he heard the interest, Gu Tianfeng was a little dissatisfied, but thinking about what he had done in the past, he accepted it reluctantly, thinking to himself that he would pay it back as soon as possible after the family affairs were over.
Although being able to borrow the money was not what he expected, Gu Tianfeng was still satisfied.
