No one expected things to turn out like this.
Grandpa Shen glanced at Fourth Aunt Shen and was also a little angry.
"What are you sisters arguing about? Isn't the most important thing right now to find a way to get the money back?"
"You can't blame me for this. It was my elder sister who was staring at me first, and I didn't mean to argue with her."
She won't take the blame.
On the contrary, she felt that she was wronged. Originally, her Baozhu had been cheated badly by Wu Wenjie, and now her second uncle Shen had been cheated of his money, most of which was hers.
After all, her family is the most unlucky one.
Who can she complain to about this suffering?
On the other side, Uncle Shen silently retreated into the corner.
If he remembered correctly, it seemed that he was the one who blamed Fourth Aunt Shen first.
Now he just wanted to pray that Fourth Aunt Shen would never think of this.
Otherwise, he would never let me go.
At the same time, he secretly hated himself for being so outspoken. If he hadn't been so outspoken, how could he have caused the two of them to quarrel?
It even made Aunt Shen angry and she ran away.
Now that there's one less person looking after me, Aunt Shen won't refuse to lend me money if I ask her to borrow it again in the future, right?
He even asked him to pay back the money. Where would he get the money?
In fact, everyone here is worried about how to ask for money, and they can’t care about Uncle Shen at the moment.
Grandpa Shen looked around at the people in the yard. The only one who could take charge was probably his eldest son-in-law.
But the eldest son-in-law usually doesn't interfere in his family's affairs easily.
Now the couple is gone again.
The other two are Lin Weiguo and Cao Changzheng, both of whom were busy today and did not come.
He thought about it, and took the initiative to lower his face and said to Aunt Shen Si:
"Why don't you go back and ask Chang Zheng?
Let’s see if he can spare some time to take us to the county town.
Perhaps Wu Wenjie, wary of Changzheng's identity, will agree to return the money."
That won’t do!
Fourth Aunt Shen's first reaction was to refuse. If the Shen family were to meet Wu Wenjie, wouldn't the matter of her Baozhu be hidden?
This is absolutely not possible!
She immediately made up an excuse.
"Dad, you know that what I'm doing is speculation.
Changzheng was the deputy director of the commune after all.
If I go with you guys, and I don't get the money back in the end, and that Wu Wenjie turns the tables and uses this to threaten Chang Zheng, then we're all done for.
We have no place to cry.
I would rather not have the hundred dollars than let Changzheng take the risk!"
I have to say that Fourth Aunt Shen’s worries are not groundless.
Didn’t you see that Wu Wenjie threatened them once in the commune’s staff quarters some time ago?
Grandpa Shen thought about it and it made the same sense. Since Cao Changzheng couldn't go, he could only turn his attention to Shen Wenfang.
"Third girl, could you please ask Weiguo to help make a trip?
At worst, I can take Wen Jiang and Wen Chao with me, just to have Captain Wei Guo to support us."
In fact, Shen Wenfang didn't want Lin Weiguo to go either. She had met Wu Wenjie and knew that he was very difficult to deal with, so she didn't want Lin Weiguo to get involved in this mess.
But when she met her old father's eyes, which were cloudy but still full of pleading, she couldn't bring herself to say no.
It was also at this time that she noticed that her old father had aged so much overnight.
The hair that was originally gray at the temples was now completely white.
This shows how much of a blow this incident was to the old couple.
Seeing this made her heart ache, and she couldn't bear to refuse.
However, she also knew her own limitations, so she did not intend to take on too much, and only agreed to let Lin Weiguo help depending on the situation.
Although two hundred yuan is a lot of money, you can't sacrifice yourself just for it.
Lin Ran, who was standing by, didn't say anything when she saw Shen Wenfang agreed.
Seeing Grandpa Shen like this, let alone Shen Wenfang couldn’t bear it, even she couldn’t stand it.
This old man, who looks so much like his grandfather in his previous life, shouldn't be bent by life and reality.
At worst, if they can't get the money, I can just secretly pay them back.
Anyway, I took away several boxes of gold, silver and jewelry from Wu Wenjie's house, which were worth countless two hundred dollars.
However, I will have to teach Wu Wenjie a lesson when I find the opportunity.
Since this person dared to set his sights on the people around her and even affected her, she should be prepared to be retaliated against.
…
When the mother and daughter got home in the afternoon, they found out that Lin Weiguo had gone to the commune with Shi Yan, Lin Laosan and others.
I didn't come back until dinner time.
The three of them didn't look very good.
After asking, I found out that there was probably no chance that Lin Laosan would go to college.
Now Shen Wenfang no longer had the energy to talk to Lin Weiguo about asking for money.
After all, Lin Laosan’s future is more important than two hundred yuan.
I became anxious immediately.
"what is going on?
Didn’t you guys discuss this with Director Zhang last time?
Why is there no play again?
Could it be that Director Zhang suddenly changed his mind?"
Lin Weiguo was also very annoyed. He took a puff of his cigarette before saying;
"You can't blame them for this."
"Why don't you blame him? Isn't it because he goes back on his word?"
"Alas... I heard that the county leaders asked Director Zhang for this position, and he couldn't refuse."
Having said that, Lin Weiguo took another long puff of tobacco.
Although he could understand Director Zhang's approach, after all, they had no relatives or friends, so how could he expect others to offend the county leaders for his sake?
But even though I understand it, I still feel unwilling in my heart.
But Shen Wenfang couldn't accept this result. She had watched Shi Yan and Lin Laosan busying themselves until now, wasn't it just for this college place?
“He can’t refuse so he comes to sacrifice our family?
How can there be such a thing in the world?
So does he still want to raise silkworms?"
"Silkworm farming is proceeding as normal."
Shen Wenfang was completely furious this time. She threw down her chopsticks and started cursing.
"What? He didn't even let the third child go to college, and he still expects us to raise silkworms for him?
What a big dream!
Go tell him tomorrow that there is no way!
Do you really think we ordinary people have no temper?
We won't raise him, let's see what he can do to us!"
As she said this, she looked at Shi Yan and Lin Lao San again.
"Did you two hear that? Don't get involved in any silkworm-raising business from now on.
It's useless for anyone to come to you.
If he wants to raise it, let him raise it himself."
Lin Weiguo did not quite agree with this.
"Forget it, raising silkworms is beneficial to the people after all, and it is good for our entire Tashan Brigade.
We can’t blame Joe for not getting a place at the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University.”
Shen Wenfang naturally understood this logic. What he said just now was just angry words, but he felt really aggrieved in his heart.
"So we're just helping them do this for free?"
"Director Zhang said he would give us other rewards."
Lin Laosan replied in a muffled voice.
He still hasn't recovered.
Originally, he was waiting to ask He Xiaoyue for praise after he got a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University.
The greater the hope before, the greater the disappointment now.
