"Let's not worry about it for now!" Chen Xiaoying said angrily.

She had been running around all day today, looking for people, talking about things, and also competing with her eldest daughter Li Hongyan, whose face was thicker than a city wall. She was already tired.

She also remembered the cold face of her grandson Zhao Pengfei and his sarcastic words.

"Mom, let's not ask my grandma for help. She doesn't care whether you live or die."

"Grandma, I've returned the money to you. I don't owe you anything anymore."

What is he talking about?

Today's mess was all their fault, so how could they blame her for not caring about their lives? As a grandmother, did she deserve to owe them?

What else is there to say? I've returned the money to you. I don't owe you anything anymore.

Your mother clearly tricked your grandfather into borrowing a loan shark. The loan was 28,000, not 5,000. You just give me 5,000 and that's it?

What made Chen Xiaoying particularly sad today was her grandson Zhao Pengfei, whom she raised like her own grandson until he was six or seven years old.

Her eyes felt a little sore, and she quickly grabbed a piece of paper to wipe her tears: "I don't care anyway, let Hei Lao San go and ask your father and your eldest sister Li Hongyan for the debt."

This is the truth, but Li Hongwei is still afraid.

"Is this okay? What if Hei Lao San just sits in our house and refuses to leave?"

He had inquired about it a long time ago, and knew that this was how this group of people collected debts. When they arrived, there were seven or eight tall, strong, and fierce-looking young men, smoking, playing cards, eating and drinking at your house, shouting and making a lot of noise. Not only did they disturb their own lives, but they also made their neighbors unable to sleep.

He can't afford to lose this person in Lijia Village.

"There is no other way." Chen Xiaoying held back her tears, took another piece of tissue to blow her nose, and said hoarsely: "In the beginning, Hei Lao San also treated us and my son as scapegoats. We have taken practical actions to tell them that they should go after anyone who borrowed money from them."

"If you insist on having the restaurant, we rented the building for this restaurant, and they don't know how much money we make from selling food. If they want money, they will say they don't have any, and they use it to pay off the loan every month."

Some time ago, the gangster leader in their village, Lao Laizi, thought that her eldest son, Li Hongwei, who opened a restaurant and bought a house, had made a lot of money, so he took advantage of the couple working in the fields and sneaked into his house to steal things.

When the couple returned home, the house was in a mess, and it was clearly robbed.

Fearing that she would be targeted, granddaughter Li Yutong deliberately reported the case to the police and said in front of many villagers who were watching the excitement that her father had no money because he had borrowed a loan of 100,000 yuan and had not yet repaid it.

This reason can be used at this time.

"Also, if we get desperate, we can sell this house, specifically to the person they can't afford to offend, at a low price. We can then hide the money. At worst, we can go find work somewhere else in the future."

Li Yutong listened quietly at the side.

I was a little surprised when I heard her grandmother say that at worst she could just go find a job somewhere else.

Her grandmother had been a village woman all her life. In her previous life, the longest journey she had ever walked was to the market to have a bowl of tofu pudding. In this life, she had been hanging around in this county town.

This is her hometown, her roots. It is the sentiment of the Chinese people that fallen leaves return to their roots, and the older people get, the more they want to stay in the place where they grew up.

This means going to other places and leaving home.

This shows her determination.

"Grandma, it shouldn't come to this." She couldn't help but advise.

Chen Xiaoying is an old lady now. It is not nice to cry in front of her children and grandchildren, so she tried not to cry, but kept wiping her eyes with tissues, which had already turned red. "I know that the world still abides by the law. Hei Lao San will never dare to force our family to be destroyed. I just can't stand this."

"This time, I must teach your grandfather and your eldest aunt Li Hongyan a lesson, so that they know the pain of being forced to pay their debts. Let's see if they dare to borrow money from this dishonest person again in the future."

Li Yutong had no choice but to nod.

Her father Li Hongwei couldn't think of any other solution. He had been working down-to-earth in the countryside all his life. He had no knowledge and no skills other than farming.

All I can do is: "Okay, Mom, I'll listen to you."

"Mom, what about me and Jiejie?" Zhao Xueyan felt a little uneasy. This house belonged to her uncle Li Hongwei. She was just relying on her mother-in-law to live here temporarily and take her children to school.

"Hei Lao San won't come to ask me for a house, right?"

Chen Xiaoying glanced at her and said, "Don't worry. He can't give it to you even if he asks you. Your name is not on the property deed. Besides, the money has only been borrowed for a short time. He can't force you to come here for the time being."

They are worried about the high daily interest. Every day they spend has to pay more interest.

I guess Hei Laosan is in no hurry. He hopes to wait a year or two, until they have expanded their restaurant business and bought two houses, and then his group will come and get the ready-made ones.

After the discussion, early the next morning, Chen Xiaoying took her eldest son Li Hongwei and granddaughter Li Yutong back to the village.

The third daughter-in-law, Zhao Xueyan, continues to stay here and pick up and drop off the children to school.

The group returned to the village and saw the third son Li Hongqiang making a fire and cooking in the old house, and the old man Li Pingwang chopping firewood. There was no woman in the family, so the father and son had learned to be self-reliant.

Seeing them coming back, the old man Li Pingwang was not in a good mood either. He said to Chen Xiaoying, "You still remember to come back?"

"Hongyan came to tell me yesterday afternoon that you ruined Pengfei's marriage. Chen Xiaoying, you have really become very capable. You are amazing."

"Aren't you afraid that the villagers will poke your spine if you do this?"

Li Hongqiang also said, "Mom, how can you be so bold? My sister has put so much effort and money into Pengfei's marriage, and you, as a mother, just messed it up. How old are you, and how can you do such a thing?"

Early in the morning, Chen Xiaoying was stimulated by this brainless father and son.

She had a stern face and ignored Li Hongqiang. She only said to the old man Li Pingwang: "Aren't you enjoying your daughter's life? Why did you come back? She doesn't want you."

Li Pingwang was very angry and a little embarrassed: "I have four sons. Living in my daughter's house is embarrassing. People will laugh at me."

It was so embarrassing yesterday. The old woman sent him to the home of the eldest daughter Li Hongyan and asked him to obey her son-in-law's mood. He was so mad.

Fortunately, the two villages were not far from each other. As soon as the day broke, he returned home without even having a bite of food.

Chen Xiaoying was too lazy to tell him this.

"Hongwei, go find that Zhao Bangzi right now, give him ten dollars as a bribe, and ask him to tell Hei Lao San that the high-interest loan that Li Pingwang and Li Hongyan borrowed has nothing to do with me, Chen Xiaoying, you, Li Hongwei, and others. If he dares to come to collect the debt, we will call the police, tear our faces apart, and make a big fuss. I won't pay a penny for this debt."

She threatened to let Hei Lao San know that she would not take responsibility for this matter.

Don't try to take over her restaurant and her eldest son Li Hongwei's house. If she doesn't give him the house and doesn't have the money, he can do it himself.

"You're crazy." Li Pingwang was shocked.

Hei Lao San is a tall and strong man with a dark face. When he stands up, he is as strong as an iron tower. He can probably beat someone half to death with just one punch.
