Wang Cheng stood outside the door for a long time.
He didn't dare knock on the door and could only leave the warm and cozy community.
I took the train from the provincial capital back to Ping'an County, and then walked back to Xiaowang Village.
Standing at the door, I recalled all the sad things in my life, and finally managed to shed a few tears before stepping inside.
Wang Song and Li Guifen could tell from his expression that things weren't going well.
"Xiao Cheng, is Wang Peng unwilling to vouch for you?"
Li Guifen asked anxiously.
"Yes, he wouldn't even let me in the door."
Wang Cheng squeezed out two more tears.
"That's too much! That unfilial descendant has gone too far!"
Li Guifen broke down, "Honey, we can't afford a thousand yuan for tuition. Are we going to let Xiaocheng's university education be delayed because we don't have the money?"
"Why wouldn't that heartless person vouch for his own brother?"
For a moment, the courtyard was filled with Li Guifen's cursing.
Wang Cheng kept rubbing his tears.
Inside the main room, Wang Zhen and Wang Xia watched coldly from the sidelines.
They both did well this year and were admitted to Ping'an County No. 1 Middle School.
The parents have already said that the family doesn't have the money to pay their tuition, and they need to earn their own tuition during the summer vacation.
If I earn enough for tuition, I'll go to school; otherwise, I'll work.
"Honey, let's go to the provincial capital tomorrow and demand an explanation from that unfilial son."
Li Guifen jumped up and down, shouting.
"Don't speak yet."
Wang Song looked up and glared at him, then lowered his head and continued smoking.
Li Guifen was taken aback.
"Honey, why are you glaring at me? Am I wrong?"
Wang Song ignored her and quietly finished his cigarette.
"Wang Cheng, I went to the Education Bureau this morning and asked. Student loans do not require a guarantor at all."
"The loan you're talking about is actually a student loan."
"Tell me the truth, what exactly happened?"
Wang Song stared intently at Wang Cheng.
Wang Cheng's head buzzed.
His student loan application has been completed, and now he is just waiting for the bank to disburse the funds.
He will only fulfill his repayment obligation three years later, after he graduates.
The loans he's taking out now are actually usurious loans, not bank loans at all.
As long as they trick Wang Peng into signing, Wang Peng will be responsible for repaying this high-interest loan.
"Dad, maybe I remembered it wrong. I'll go to the school to ask again tomorrow."
The father already knows the truth, and he can no longer lie.
"Okay, give me a definite answer tomorrow."
Wang Song threw away his cigarette butt and walked over to his son.
Suddenly, he slapped Wang Cheng hard across the face.
Snap!
Wang Cheng was stunned, and so were the others.
"You bastard, you want to borrow money at exorbitant interest rates and then make someone else take on your debts."
"Wang Peng is such a smart guy, how could you possibly fool him?"
"You overconfident beast!"
Snap!
Another resounding slap.
Wang Song was furious.
thump.
Wang Cheng hurriedly knelt down in front of his father, covering his face with his hands.
Main room.
Wang Zhen was secretly pleased.
Is there anything more exciting than the second brother, nicknamed "Baby Egg," getting slapped by his father?
Wang Xia was also very happy, as as long as her second brother received a student loan, the family would not have to pay his tuition.
The money saved by the family might be used to pay for their sisters' tuition.
"Honey, are you crazy?"
Li Guifen hurriedly protected Wang Song's arm, then turned and shouted loudly to Wang Zhen and Wang Xia, "Come and pull your dad up!"
"Mother, I dare not."
Wang Zhen went straight back to her bedroom, not caring whether her second brother lived or died.
Wang Xia hesitated for a few seconds, then lowered her head and went to Wang Zhen's bedroom.
"Father, I was wrong. I shouldn't have lied to you."
Wang Cheng was already sobbing uncontrollably.
"Hmph! If you had half the skill of your older brother, I could be enjoying my retirement in peace."
Wang Song walked out of his house with his hands behind his back and went to work in the fields.
A cozy residential community in the provincial capital.
Wang Peng sat on the sofa with a frown on his face, clearly not in a good mood.
Knowing Wang Song and Li Guifen's nature, they will definitely come and cause trouble after Wang Cheng was turned away today.
Wang Peng wasn't afraid of them causing trouble at his home; he was only worried about them causing trouble at the school.
That would have a very bad impact.
"husband."
Li Mingzhu put her arms around her boyfriend's neck and said softly, "Let my parents come and stay for a few days. They're not easy to mess with."
"No matter what, those two people from Wangjia Village are your biological parents."
"It's inappropriate for you to engage in a war of words with them."
"But my parents won't spoil them; they're not afraid of arguing."
Li Mingzhu said bitterly.
Wang Peng nodded slightly. "That's a good idea. Outsiders know how to chant sutras."
"Okay, let's go to your house and file a complaint, and let them give us justice."
Wang Peng took out his car keys from his pocket.
"Let's go, let's go right now."
Li Mingzhu immediately went back to her room to change her clothes.
Half an hour later, the two arrived at the light bulb factory's residential compound.
Li Mingzhu transformed into a little drama queen, her face full of grievance, embellishing the story of Wang Cheng's attempt to cause trouble.
Bang!
Li Kefan slammed his fist on the sofa, "This is outrageous! We've already severed ties, what are they doing here?"
"Old Li, pack your things, we're going to stay at your daughter's house now."
Duan Cuilu was also quite angry, rolling up her sleeves and saying, "It's been a long time since we've had a fight, and I'm feeling bored."
Wang Peng was a little confused.
"Uncle, Aunt, there's no need to make such a big fuss."
“What I mean is, there are public telephones outside the community. If they dare to cause trouble, I will have Mingzhu call you.”
