Decades ago, my parents worked hard to earn all their money, and used it to support my eldest sister's family. It was not easy for them to support my eldest sister.
It was only in the past two years that they gradually came to their senses and realized that when helping others, they had to first ensure that their wives and children had enough food to eat and a good house to live in before they could think about helping others.
The two of them felt extremely complicated.
Chen Xiaoying was so angry that she almost fainted. She waved her hands tiredly: "You asked me to buy you a car, but I told you that I can't buy you one. If something happens to you while driving, I can't take the responsibility."
"I won't buy it for you. You suddenly made such a scene today. You weren't injured at all. You and your brother teamed up to cheat me out of three thousand yuan. Pengfei, how did you become such a person?"
If it was something else, she would take her grandson Zhao Pengfei's face into consideration and not tell him about it because he is young and ignorant.
But what he did today was too much.
Isn't he making fun of her?
After Chen Xiaoying said this, the second brother Li Hongjian and others all understood.
They were all a little bit unbelieving.
"Pengfei, did you cheat your grandma out of the money you used to buy the car?"
"How could you do such a thing? What were you thinking?"
They were also confused.
Li Honggang asked his second brother Li Hongjian: "Can you buy a car for 3,000 yuan?"
The two brothers were still confused, but Chen Xiaoying had already asked Zhao Pengfei, whose face had turned ugly: "I don't care about your car, but where is my 3,000 yuan?"
Once you ask clearly about the money, you will know what's going on with this car.
Zhao Pengfei felt humiliated by what he had just said, and he didn't want to be taught a lesson any more, so he had to tell the whole story of how he bought the car.
He felt quite satisfied: "Grandma, this is the best thing I've ever encountered. I can buy a car for 3,000 yuan, and the rest of the money is settled. I will pay it back slowly as I earn money every month."
"Those three thousand dollars from you can be considered as a loan from me. I can drive and pick up passengers today to earn money, and I can have an income every month. Isn't this a good thing? It's the best of all worlds."
"My brother can treat his father's illness, and I have a car and can make money. You don't actually lose anything, right?"
At first glance, what he said makes sense.
The second son, Li Hongjian, and the fourth son, Li Honggang, both did not finish primary school. They farmed in the village and worked as laborers moving wood in a sawmill. They had no idea about these twists and turns.
After hearing what my nephew said, I found out that this is the case.
They all nodded: "It is indeed a good thing that happened."
Chen Xiaoying is an old woman in the village, who has also never seen the world. However, she has been doing business for three years and has seen some people's petty schemes. Her intuition tells her that such a good thing will never happen.
"Isn't he afraid that you won't pay me back next month? Or the month after next?"
"I am a loyal person. I will definitely pay back the money I said I would." Zhao Pengfei was still unhappy that his grandmother questioned his character.
Chen Xiaoying was feeling anxious: "You said you would pay it back, so you should pay it back. Have you written him an IOU? Let me see how much money is left."
Zhao Pengfei waved his hand and said, "We are brothers now, why do you need to write an IOU? My brother even wants an IOU."
Seeing his attitude, not to mention Chen Xiaoying, even the second and fourth brothers felt that something was wrong. The car was not a small thing, so how could they just give it to him without asking for anything else?
Chen Xiaoying suddenly remembered: "What about the formalities? You said he sold the car to you. Have you two completed the formalities?"
Zhao Pengfei said with disdain: "Grandma, how can he be so stupid? I haven't paid enough money, how can he process the procedures for me? We have an agreement that he will process the procedures for me when the money is enough."
This is the truth, but Chen Xiaoying felt something was wrong no matter how she thought about it.
Zhao Pengfei has already greeted his second uncle Li Hongjian, and his fourth uncle Li Hong just went to see his Santana.
Li Hongjian and Li Honggang were quite envious. Their nephew had bought a car, but they, as uncles, had nothing. They would have to rely on their nephew to benefit from the car in the future.
As they were talking outside, Zhao Pengfei said, "It's just that the gas is not enough. I thought about coming over to lend you some more money to fill up the gas in the car first, so that I can start driving the car."
Li Hongjian thought it made sense: "How much does it cost?"
As an uncle, he is particularly generous to his nephew. No matter how much money his eldest sister has lent him since he was a child, whether the family needs money to buy a house, to buy seeds and fertilizers for the land, or for the children's schooling, etc., as long as he has the money, he will give it to them without hesitation.
He was afraid that his elder sister Li Hongyan would think that he had no family affection and he didn't even help her.
Later, during the past three years, their biological mother Chen Xiaoying had a falling out with their eldest sister and forbade them to borrow money. They went to ask for the money once, but found that their eldest sister had no intention of paying it back, so they gave up and never lent money again.
But strangely, he still felt guilty and thought he was too harsh on his eldest sister, even though he knew she had three sons and the pressure was too great and her life was not easy.
This time, his nephew bought a car and he was just a little short of having enough money. It would be awkward for him, as his uncle, not to lend him some money.
Li Hongjian had no money, so he came back to the store to ask Chen Xiaoying to borrow some.
Chen Xiaoying was already in a mess because of this car. When he heard that Zhao Pengfei borrowed money from him to buy gas, he immediately became angry: "You didn't have money to buy a car, so you asked me for it. I didn't give it to you, so I cheated you out of 3,000 yuan to get this car, and now you're asking you for gas money. What, do you owe him?"
The second son, Li Hongjian, disagreed: "Mom, Pengfei bought a car to make money and is ambitious. This is a good thing. How can I, as his uncle, not support him?"
Li Honggang on the side didn't say anything. If his second brother wanted to lend him money, he would lend it. If his second brother didn't want to lend him money, he actually didn't want to lend it either, as he also planned to buy a house.
If you borrow money from your elder sister's family, you have to be prepared to think that it is lost and will never come back.
Li Hongjian added: "You have to let him earn money by driving a sports car, so that he can pay you back the three thousand yuan."
If you don't work, you won't have money.
Chen Xiaoying sighed and looked at Zhao Pengfei who was standing outside the door and looking towards here. His young face was full of hope for a good life in the future. Even if this kid lied and was not ambitious, she still couldn't bear to do it.
"If you want to borrow it, then go ahead. By the way, call him in and write the IOU first."
The second brother, Li Hongjian, was more shameless: "We are all family, why write an IOU?"
Li Honggang also smiled: "It doesn't matter whether you write it or not."
He knew in his heart that if he didn't want to pay it back, it would be useless to write it.
Chen Xiaoying didn't think so: "I have to write it. Writing the IOU will at least serve as a warning to him. This money is borrowed, so I have to think about paying it back in the future."
The second brother Li Hongjian had no choice but to go out and call Zhao Pengfei in.
Zhao Pengfei felt uncomfortable, and he frowned and didn't say anything.
He wrote when asked to, but after writing the two words "an IOU that looks like a dog's crawl", he couldn't do it: "I can't write."
"You can't write, but I told you to write." Chen Xiaoying glared at him and said, "We lent you the money, not for your gratitude. At least don't be so rude to me."
Zhao Pengfei thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. He could just write the IOU and wait until he got the money first.
Anyway, with the example of his parents, even if he doesn't pay back the money, his grandma and others can't do anything to him.
