Gu Ruizhuo was beaten black and blue and huddled in a corner. The family was once again shrouded in sorrow. Bai Cuiyan had just opened her mouth.
Gu Dakai retorted, "Two hundred yuan, do you think it's a small amount?"
"You know, we worked hard for a month, and the total amount we earned was just that little. Even if we worked hard for a few more months, we wouldn't be able to make up for this money."
"And there's interest."
"You protected him, and he became like this. If you have the guts, go sell him!"
Bai Cuiyan shut her mouth, not daring to say another word. The family sat on the sofa for a long time before she suggested, "Why don't we go look for Gu Siqing again?"
"She is quite wealthy. Let's go and beg her to help us. Then we can work like slaves to repay her in the future, right?" Bai Cuiyan knew that they could not come up with so much money, so she set her sights on Gu Siqing again.
Although Gu Dakai wanted to say something, he finally sighed and said, "Then go look for her again. You can even kneel down and beg her."
“I’ll go!”
Gu Ruizhuo volunteered, a murderous look in his eyes, "I'll go with Grandpa. If we both beg him, he should give us money. If he doesn't lend us the money, we won't leave!"
He said this, but he didn't mean it in his heart.
He was going to ask Gu Siqing for money, and if Gu Siqing didn't give it to him, he would just beat him to death.
Let her lose her children!
"Then your dad and I will continue to go to work. You tell Brother Long that we will collect the interest as soon as possible and pay it back after we find Gu Siqing to borrow money." Bai Cuiyan sighed, and seeing that it was almost time, she hurried back to her workplace.
As soon as she came here and saw her colleagues, she patted her chest.
Yesterday she originally wanted to borrow money from her colleagues, so she followed her previous plan and borrowed three or four dollars from each person, which was a considerable sum of money.
But there were still a few days before salary was paid, and everyone was complaining about not having money, so she put the idea behind her. Today, she suddenly felt fortunate that she didn't borrow money yesterday, otherwise what would she do in the future?
The same thing happened to Gu Dakai. He had a quarrel with someone in the factory yesterday and thought he would not go today, but who knew he would go again.
The person who had quarreled with him yesterday was promoted to team leader this morning. Seeing him coming, he kept making things difficult for him and teasing him, but he had no way to stop him.
I can only swallow my anger.
The old man and Gu Ruizhuo went to the family compound, and the two decided to wait for Gu Siqing there.
Since Gu Siqing handed the plan to Zhao Zhigang, she has had nothing much to do. She stays in the military hospital every day to give lectures and occasionally picks up the children.
In my free time, I draw some designs and send them to my cousin. Their business empire is expanding little by little, and they have opened nearly a hundred clothing stores.
It’s already a big brand.
From time to time, my cousins would come back to the capital, and the two families would get together to talk about how the territory had expanded during this period, and then talk about the relationship between them.
The lives of several families became more comfortable.
Gu Siqing only takes the children out to play on weekends, so Gu Ruizhuo and the old man waited at the door for a whole week, all on weekdays.
I didn't manage to squat until Gu Siqing appeared outside.
Gu Ruizhuo was so angry, "What on earth is she doing? Is she deliberately refusing to see us?"
"Of course!"
Before the old man could even speak, Gu Ruizhuo answered his own question, "Maybe she had secretly seen us squatting at the door a long time ago, so she didn't want to come out. She just didn't want to help us!"
"We were wrong in the first place. We shouldn't have let him leave our family. We should have made him a servant for the rest of his life!"
As long as Gu Ruizhuo doesn't face the critical situation of having his hands chopped off or being beaten, his words are harder than his heart.
The old man sighed heavily. "What's the point of saying so much now? We'll be kicked out as soon as we go over there, and we can't find anyone here. It's already been a week. We should just go back and never come back again."
He has to run around here every day and walk back at night, which takes an hour or two. Gu Ruizhuo's body can handle it, but his old bones can't take it.
Since I can't squat, I'd better think of another way.
Although Gu Ruizhuo was very unhappy, he still followed the old man back home. Gu Dakai and Bai Cuiyan were having dinner at home, with a bowl of food packed from a restaurant in front of them.
Although it was still vegetarian, there were still a few pieces of meat in it, which were left over from the meal, and they enjoyed it very much.
The old man looked like he was from the future, no wonder he came over, took a piece with his hand and put it in his mouth for a long time. After chewing it twice, the oil seeped into the gaps between his teeth, and he squinted his eyes in satisfaction.
Gu Ruizhuo also went to get a piece, and the family shared the meal.
Bai Cuiyan had finally managed to get the chance to clean the hotel, and then she saw that some people hadn't finished eating, so she secretly packed up the food and brought it back.
Otherwise, they would not have the money to eat meat and could only eat leftovers.
They can't object to the fact that this is food that others have eaten, because now it is not easy as long as they can survive and have the strength to work.
Bai Cuiyan was particularly unhappy when she learned that they still hadn't found Gu Siqing.
Gu Dakai knew they would return empty-handed, so he could only sigh, "I recently received a few more dollars. You can use it to pay back Brother Long's interest first. We can slowly think of other ways."
I can still delay paying the interest for a while, but if I don’t pay any interest at all, based on the ability of Brother Long and the others, they will probably come to my door early tomorrow morning.
"Xiao Zhuo," Gu Dakai took out another cheap cigarette from his pocket, "I asked someone to find you a job today. If you can only register a dozen characters, you can earn more than 20 yuan a month."
Gu Dakai did not let them know that he had hidden several dozen dollars that time. This time he spent more than twenty dollars to treat people to a meal, bought some generous gifts, and finally found a job for Gu Ruizhuo.
Today I want to tell him the news.
"I don't want to go." Gu Ruizhuo is used to being idle. Picking up bottles some time ago was already his limit. Now he is asked to go to work. Isn't this asking him to die?
"Say it again!"
Gu Dakai raised the belt in his hand again and pointed his finger at his face. "If you don't want to go, then I'll send you to Brother Long. Whether you live or die is none of my business!"
"I can't find Gu Siqing anymore, so I can't borrow money from her. If you don't go to work and pay back the money, what are you going to do?"
In the end, Gu Ruizhuo compromised, and even the old man sighed, "I'll go out for a walk tomorrow. If there's anything I can do, I'll find a job."
