He yawned as he spoke, "Dad, didn't you say you still had some of your salary? Give it to me first, and I'll go out and get some more money together, and then return the money to Brother Long as soon as possible."
"Brother Long said that if I don't pay back the money soon, he will move all the things in the house to pay off the debt."
Gu Ruizhuo said, looking around the room with disdain, "It seems that we don't have anything worth buying at home. Even if we sell all these things, we won't get even half of what we paid for them."
"How will we live then?"
Gu Ruizhuo held out his hand as a matter of course. Gu Dakai was furious and wanted to curse, but then he heard him continue: "This bet is really not a good thing. I won the past two days, but I didn't expect to lose so badly in the end."
"Where's your salary? Give me some."
When they heard about gambling, Gu Dakai and Bai Cuiyan were like being hit on the head with a stick, and they were a little dazed.
this……
"Don't you two want to give me the money?" Gu Ruizhuo was a little angry when he saw that they were reluctant to take it.
"no."
Bai Cuiyan spoke too hastily just now, so she yelled at Gu Dakai. Fortunately, Gu Ruizhuo didn't hear anything wrong.
It is impossible to tell my son directly now that Gu Dakai has cheated on me.
Gu Ruizhuo was of course unhappy because he couldn't say anything and couldn't pay.
"OK!"
Seeing the two of them lying motionless, Gu Ruizhuo stood up and kicked the table in front of him. "If you refuse to give me the money, then you can just watch me get beaten to death by Brother Long and the others."
"have a look!"
Gu Ruizhuo rolled up his sleeves. There were two bruises on his wrists and one on the back of his neck.
"After they beat me to death, they will come to our house to take away our things." Gu Ruizhuo was desperate. The old man felt distressed when he heard it. "Why would they beat you like this?"
Then he took out two dollars from his pocket and said, "I earned this money by picking up bottles these two days. If nothing else, you can use it to buy two bottles of water."
Gu Dakai and the others felt very distressed as well.
How could it become like this?
"Look how badly I've been beaten, and you still don't take any money. Why are you pretending to be so hypocritical here?" Gu Ruizhuo was furious, and Bai Cuiyan felt very upset too.
She couldn't tell anyone about the cheating and the money she lost, and now her son was beaten like this. How could their family's life become like this?
"I'll find a way." Gu Dakai was also suffering. "I will never let you be beaten by them again. I will go to the factory tomorrow to ask and advance part of the salary. I will find a way to compensate you."
"But after you lose money, you really can't gamble anymore. It's like a bottomless pit. No matter how much money you put in, you won't be able to get it out in the end."
"If I can't take it out and get beaten by them, that would be very serious!"
Gu Dakai didn't expect that the reason why Gu Ruizhuo was doing so well outside recently was because of gambling.
But what can I do? Now I have to pay off the debt on my son's behalf.
Gu Ruizhuo was finally relieved after hearing this. Before returning to his room, he urged him again, "Remember to go to the factory to collect your salary tomorrow, otherwise I will be beaten badly by them and have to pay for medical treatment."
The two people nodded repeatedly.
After Gu Ruizhuo completely entered the house, the old man looked at the two of them and said, "I don't know what happened to you, but you still have to find a way to pay Xiaozhuo back. He was beaten like this. Don't you feel bad as his parents?"
How could Gu Dakai and Bai Cuiyan not feel distressed? They returned to their room and hardly slept the whole night.
In the end, the two people decided to collect their wages at their respective workplaces.
The next morning, the two went.
The factory manager felt a headache when he saw Gu Dakai. When he heard that he was coming to collect his salary, he found it incredible. "Dakai, you were just demoted yesterday. It's not good to ask for salary now, right?"
"And you're paying so much salary, it'll take almost two months to pay it back. Are you not going to pay me for the next two months?"
The factory manager is really speechless.
After causing such a big trouble, you still have the nerve to come and collect your salary today?
"Director, please, something serious has happened in my family, otherwise I wouldn't come to you for help!" Gu Dakai almost knelt down in front of him.
The same goes for Bai Cuiyan.
Although she was a cleaner, there was no dedicated person to manage them. When she mentioned the issue of early salary payment, the manager was very unhappy.
"I used to see you clean the place pretty well, so I treated you pretty well. I also gave you quite a bit as a bonus from a client last time. Why do you still want a salary?"
The manager sighed, "If you take out just a few dozen dollars, it'll take more than two months to pay it back. Aren't you going to have any way to live after that?"
Bai Cuiyan felt bitter in her mouth. She knew that the next two months would be difficult, but she had no choice but to pay back the money for her son.
I can't just watch my son get beaten.
"Sister Li, please give me some of my salary. Something serious happened in my family." Bai Cuiyan's words were exactly the same as Gu Dakai's. The two of them begged again and again at the workplace, and their lips were almost worn out, but they finally got the salary.
In order to receive salary and maintain their lives in the future, they deducted a portion from their monthly salary and had to pay back the entire amount in three and a half months.
Although life was difficult afterwards, the two of them smiled with relief when they saw that the money they had scraped together was finally enough to pay back the debt.
When Gu Ruizhuo returned home in the evening, he saw Bai Cuiyan and Gu Dakai sitting on the sofa, and a hint of surprise suddenly emerged in his heart.
"Have you collected enough money?"
He wanted to go out and try his luck today, so he borrowed ten dollars from someone. Unexpectedly, he lost everything in the end. On the way back, he met Brother Long and was blocked by his men.
If I hadn't gotten away with it with a few words, I would probably have been beaten again tonight.
When he thought about being pinned down in the alley and beaten by them, Gu Ruizhuo felt pain all over his body.
I simply stopped going out for a stroll and hurried back to see if my parents had collected enough money.
"We've collected enough money." Gu Dakai pulled out an envelope bulging with change. "This is the salary your mother and I collected. We've spent almost all of the next two or three months' salary, leaving only some basic living expenses."
"We can give you this money to pay back Brother Long, but you have to promise us that you will never gamble again, absolutely not!" Gu Dakai spoke with a sense of powerlessness.
Although I feel sad that my son was beaten, I am also angry sometimes. How could my son be so disappointing?
