The next morning, Bai Yajing went out with a big-character poster and a gong.
This is during the morning rush hour, and everyone is having breakfast.
"Dong dong dong dong qiang!"
"Dong dong dong dong qiang!"
"Come and take a look! You'd be a fool not to take advantage of a good deal!"
The people living in Baiyuan all heard the commotion.
People have started to gather around.
"Really? They're giving money back?"
Wow! That's quite a lot!
Granny Liu was staring blankly at the bowl of thin rice porridge on the table.
"Old man, how are we supposed to live like this... If our son keeps gambling, we two old bones will really have no way out but death!"
Old Liu also had a long face, and his hands numbly scooped up spoonful after spoonful and stuffed them into his mouth.
"What can we do? We can't just kill him, can we? He's managed to get away now, but what about us? People are constantly blocking our door! They've taken all the money from our house! Sigh!"
"Can your brothers on your mother's side still borrow money?"
Granny Liu was also distressed that her son was so disappointing!
I finally managed to get a job at the neighborhood office through connections, but I've completely changed since I started working here!
She recalled how, over the past two years, she had repeatedly visited her brother and younger brother to borrow money, and how their initial willingness to agree eventually turned into a detour whenever they saw her.
Heartbroken, she propped her head up and shook her head. "Borrow my ass! I can't pay back the ones I borrowed before, and they've already said I can't go back to my parents' house!"
As he spoke, he slammed his hand on the table and glared at Old Man Liu, asking, "Where are your relatives?"
Hongbing is still their junior, after all! Are they really planning to just stand by and do nothing?
When Old Liu saw her get angry, he trembled all over, and the thin rice porridge he had just scooped up fell onto the table.
"Oh, don't be angry! I've borrowed from everyone, and I still haven't paid back a lot!"
After saying that, he cautiously glanced at Granny Liu and muttered under his breath, "They also said that I'm not allowed to come over anymore..."
Granny Liu slumped back onto the stool in despair.
Then, with a hint of hope, they looked at each other.
"Your salary..."
"Your salary..."
"I've already paid for three months in advance..."
"I've already paid for two months in advance..."
The couple exchanged a glance and sighed in unison. Not only would the finance department not approve of an advance, but they'd likely find an excuse to fire them!
Granny Liu glanced nervously at the old man, "Take those first..."
Before she could finish speaking, Old Man Liu glared at her with disapproval in his eyes. It was rare for him to treat Granny Liu like this, which immediately brought Granny Liu to her senses.
"Are you out of your mind?"
Granny Liu's shoulders slumped down.
Just then, things started to get lively outside.
Granny Liu craned her neck to look outside. "What's going on? Old man, why do I hear someone banging a gong?"
Old Liu listened intently for a while, then his eyes lit up. "It sounds like they're saying there's money to be made!"
"Really? You didn't hear me wrong? There's such a good thing?"
Granny Liu jumped up and rushed out, not caring whether she was hungry or not.
The old woman went out, and Old Liu, unable to eat anymore, followed her out.
Bai Yajing was still outside telling the tenants that the sooner they moved out, the better.
"Think about it, we're going to move anyway, so we might as well move sooner!"
One hundred yuan! That's several months' wages for a worker! Are you crazy?!
"If we don't take advantage of this great opportunity to move now, we won't have another chance like this!"
She then spread her hands with a regretful expression, "Not only will we not get a single point, but we'll also be forcibly kicked out. Anyone would know what to choose!"
