Inside the eldest son's house of the Song family.
Song Guomin sat on the edge of the bed with a worried look on his face.
Liu Aimei suggested, "Why don't we borrow some money and buy that house as soon as possible?"
Song Guomin's boss is in urgent need of money and said a month ago that he wanted to sell the property, but it hasn't been sold yet.
If Song Guomin were to buy it, it would please the leader, who is about to retire, and the director would be chosen from among those who joined the bank at the same time as Song Guomin.
If Song Guomin buys the house, he is absolutely certain that the deal will go through.
That house cost a total of 2,600 yuan.
Song Guomin only has a little over 800 yuan left, and he is still short of nearly 2,000 yuan.
If we were to borrow them, we would need to find at least a dozen people to gather the money.
Previously, Song Guomin wanted to find Xu Guiying and the others because he wanted to delay paying back the money.
But his parents wouldn't give him the money, so Song Guomin had to borrow it.
Liu Aimei muttered, "Anyone with eyes can see that you are the only one with a future in the whole family, but your mother still insists on helping the other good-for-nothings."
Song Guomin frowned. "Alright, stop talking."
Just then, a noise came from the main room outside; the door to the three brothers' room next door had opened.
"Keep it down," the second son said.
"I know!" It was Song Jianmin's voice.
Liu Aimei scoffed, "The second son is always trying to be a good person."
Song Guomin frowned, then lifted the covers and got into bed.
The next day.
Song Jianmin left early in the morning. He got up earlier than the chickens. The Song family was quiet, and there was no one in Heping Lane. He quickly slipped out.
Xu Guiying and Song Xinfu seemed oblivious to anything amiss and went to work. Last night, the younger children asked where their third son had gone.
The elderly couple said they had sent the child to their grandparents' house. The second and fourth children didn't dare to ask any more questions. Song Rongrong didn't dare to say anything more either, seeing the expressions on her uncle and aunt's faces. The eldest child's family didn't care at all.
The second child breathed a sigh of relief as he watched his parents walk away.
Bringing Lao Wu home to live is too risky; we should send him back to his own dorm from now on.
Song Guomin didn't come back after dinner in the evening. Liu Aimei said that Song Guomin went to his colleague's house for dinner.
Xu Guiying and Song Xinfu didn't say anything.
These past few days, the boss has had a long face, like he owes him money.
The eldest brother didn't get back until 9 p.m.
They also brought back two thousand yuan, which the eldest brother borrowed from his former classmates. It took ten people to raise the money.
Liu Aimei was heartbroken, suddenly burdened with a debt of two thousand yuan.
I don't know how many years it will take to pay it off.
Eldest brother: "Consider it buying a house in advance. Once we have a house, we can move out and live there."
Liu Aimei didn't want to move. Xu Guiying was just not helping her take care of the child now. Maybe when the child was a year or two older, Xu Guiying would soften her heart and go back to how she used to be.
Song Guomin, unaware of Liu Aimei's inner turmoil, sighed and said, "Go to sleep."
The next day after get off work, Song Guomin went to see a house with his boss.
This leader's surname is Tong, and everyone usually calls him Brother Tong.
This apartment is not far from the bank. It has three bedrooms and a living room, and it's just okay. The price of 2,600 yuan is about right.
Once the contract was signed, Brother Tong patted Song Guomin on the shoulder with a smile.
"I know what you're thinking, don't worry, I understand."
Song Guomin's heart settled down, and he smiled, "Thank you for your appreciation, Brother Tong."
"It's too formal for us to talk about these things. It's still early, let's go have a couple of drinks."
Song Guomin: "Okay."
That night, Song Guomin returned home drunk.
People are in high spirits when they have good news. Song Guomin was still clear-headed when he saw Xu Guiying hanging clothes in the yard.
"Mom, I've bought the house."
Xu Guiying was not surprised. Her eldest son was determined to buy that house. In his previous life, Song Guomin had indeed won the favor of his superiors by buying that house and was eventually promoted to director.
After working for decades, Song Guomin was still the director when Xu Guiying died.
"Oh, that's good."
"I'll rise to prominence sooner or later!"
Song Guomin thought to himself, "It's my mother who won't give me money, but I'm determined to prove her right."
Anyway, buying a house is like having another asset, so it's not a loss.
It was Mom who misjudged him; it was Mom who didn't support him, which almost caused him to miss out on a bright future!
Xu Guiying took the basin into the house.
Liu Aimei came out and helped Song Guomin inside.
Why are you drinking so much?
"I've bought the house."
"You really bought it?"
"Um."
-
After Song Yingying stayed at home for more than half a month, Xu Guiying took her to the hospital to have her stitches removed.
After the stitches were removed, Song Yingying was ready to go back to school.
Having missed so much class, Song Yingying was a little unsure of what to do.
Qin Zheng came again the day before he was to go to school.
Qin Zheng gave her his high school sophomore study notes.
"I wanted you to focus on recovering from your injury, so I didn't give you these notes. You can look at them when you start classes; they're handwritten by me."
Song Yingying looked up, her face filled with gratitude, "Thank you, Qin Zheng."
Qin Zheng shook his head, "You're welcome."
After Qin Zheng said that he saw Song Yingying and thought she looked like his younger sister, Song Yingying stopped having any more wild thoughts.
Tongtong has visited her these past few days, and Song Yingying is really looking forward to going back to school.
Qin Zheng left after a short time.
When Song Rongrong returned, she brushed past Qin Zheng, raised her eyebrows slightly, and stared at Qin Zheng for a while.
Qin Zheng looked over at Song Rongrong.
Song Rongrong smiled and walked into the Song family home.
Back in her room, Song Rongrong couldn't help but ask, "Yingying, is that the classmate you were talking about?"
Song Yingying nodded. "Sister, you ran into him?"
Song Rongrong hummed in agreement, "She's quite pretty."
Song Yingying sat down next to Song Rongrong. "Sister, are you going to work?"
Song Rongrong hummed in agreement. She majored in Chinese literature in college, and her teacher recommended her to write articles for a newspaper, but Song Rongrong hadn't decided yet.
Qin Zheng returned to the Qin family.
It was rare to see Qin Zhiyuan and Jiang Xiu at home today; the couple had just returned from their business trip.
Jiang Xiu felt extremely distressed when she saw Qin Zheng looking so weak.
"Son, are you feeling any better?"
Qin Zheng had just had his stitches removed two days ago. He called out to his parents and then said, "I can't feel anything anymore."
Jiang Xiu couldn't help but say, "You should have gone to call for help instead of fighting by yourself. What if that person had a knife?"
Qin Zhiyuan praised his son's behavior, saying in a calm tone, "Azheng's original intention was good, but you are still a senior in high school, so you still have to do your best."
Qin Zheng's expression remained indifferent.
"I just think she looks like my younger sister."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Zhiyuan and Jiang Xiu were both stunned, and the light in their eyes gradually dimmed.
Jiang Xiu moved her lips, then lowered her eyes, "I heard he's a grade below you."
Qin Zheng hummed in agreement, "She has a good personality and is also good at studying."
The passing of their youngest daughter is a deep wound in the hearts of the Qin couple.
Qin Zhiyuan stood up. "Let's go to your grandfather's house for dinner tonight."
Grandpa Qin did not live with the younger generation, but lived in the Qin family's old house.
Since Qin Zheng's uncle passed away while working in the countryside, Qin Zhiyuan and his brothers have been going back to visit their grandfather every week.
