After thanking the driver from the Yu family, Qin Hongfei walked along the still intact path and passed the He family. The front door of the He family was already full of potholes. The neighbors nearby complained bitterly, but they did not dare to shout at the Qin family, but at the He family instead.
Because it was Ms. He who bullied others first, if she didn't drive them away, why would the eldest branch of the Qin family want to dig the road?
When she returned home, Qin Hongfei found that Uncle Zhou was still there.
Uncle Zhou came with the same old problem, wanting to take them to Qin City.
Qin Hongfei replied in the same way as always, "Grandpa, I'm not going to Qin City."
Uncle Zhou suddenly looked sad, and he refused to give in. "Don't you trust me? Do you think I can't take good care of you two sisters? Even if my son and daughter-in-law of the Zhou family are unwilling to accept you, your grandfather can still give you a very good living environment. You can live in a good house, read good books, eat well and drink well. If you don't go with me, how can I be worthy of your father?" As he spoke, his eyes turned red.
Concubine Qin also felt uncomfortable, "How about..."
Qin Hongfei said, "Use less garlic slices. When you get older, your eyes will be damaged by the smoke and you won't even have anywhere to cry when you want to."
Uncle Zhou: “…”
Dongshi looked at the old man in surprise. No way, he is playing this kind of tricks at such an old age.
...
...
Uncle Zhou felt seen through and his face turned red.
Qin Hongfei looked at him seriously and said, "Stop it, I really won't go. Grandpa, I appreciate your consideration for us, but I can't go because of this. You have your own son, daughter-in-law, and grandson! You can't make them unhappy because of us."
Uncle Zhou is a good person.
No matter how good Qin Shi Zhou is, if he took in two outsiders for no reason, anyone would have something to say. Even if he didn't say anything for Uncle Zhou's sake, many things would be inconvenient when living under someone else's roof. Otherwise, why is there the saying that a nest of gold or silver is not as good as a dog's nest?
Uncle Zhou saw that she had made up her mind and sighed, "Okay, if you don't want to go, then I'll pay off your mother's loan sharking debt first. Is that over 500,000 yuan?"
He thought that if he paid off the debt, his two children would also feel relieved.
More than half a million is a bit too much.
He can't afford to pay it back, but he has saved a lot from the filial piety of his children and grandchildren over the years.
Qin Hongfei said, "No need, the money has been paid off."
Uncle Zhou glared, "Don't mess around, either pay me back or come with me to Qin City... What did you say? Pay it back?"
Qin Hongfei nodded, "Yes, it's paid off. It's not easy for you to save some money, don't spend it all." More than 500,000 yuan, no matter how rich the Zhou family is, this must be given by their filial children and grandchildren. She is very grateful that the old man has this intention, and there is no way she can move it.
Looking at Uncle Zhou's legs, it was probably an old problem, and he would hit them from time to time.
Uncle Zhou narrowed his eyes and said, "How can you pay off more than half a million? Don't make a fuss."
Qin Hongfei was about to explain when someone knocked on the door. She guessed who it was and said, "Come in."
Yu Chi and Meng Yu came in one after the other. Yu Chi handed the IOU to Qin Hongfei, "Ms. Qin, this is an IOU for a loan shark."
Qin Hongfei took a look and saw Xia Lu's signature and seal on it, with a principal of 120,000 yuan. "Thank you for your hard work."
She tore up the IOU directly.
Concubine Qin asked quietly, "Have you paid off the loan shark?"
Qin Hongfei said, "Well, it's paid off. Who else does mom owe money to?" Xia Lu borrowed money from a wide range of people. In addition to loan sharks, she borrowed from relatives and friends. She also borrowed a lot of money from her second uncle over the years, but she was not sure about the exact amount. Qin Fei might know, so she should pay it all off now.
Concubine Qin said, "It's recorded in my mother's account book."
Qin Hongfei said, "Look back."
It is said to be a huge sum of millions, but in fact, if the interest is not counted, it is only a few hundred thousand, like a loan shark. It has rolled up to more than 500,000, but the actual principal is only 120,000. The reason why the interest is so high is that the interest rate was very high in that era.
Unlike the future where the interest rate is only four or five points, the bank interest rate is about ten points if it is high, and seven or eight points if it is low. For usury, the interest rate is even higher, so as time goes by, a huge amount of money is formed, which means that usury is still easy to negotiate.
If the person is not easy to talk to, the eldest wife would not have had an easy time these years. This is why Qin Hongfei asked him not to hit anyone when Yu Chi took action. It is only natural to pay back debts. The other party makes a living from this business. Xia Lu borrowed the money herself, and the other party is willing to reduce part of it, which is already good enough.
Thinking about this, she looked at Uncle Zhou and said, "They are the people sent by my brother to protect me. They are very powerful. You don't have to worry about me being bullied here."
Uncle Zhou looked at Yu Chi and Meng Yu with scrutiny and couldn't help but say, "This protection... there are only two of them, what if the people from before come again."
Qin Hongfei said, "It's okay. Even ten Song Zhaolins are no match for one of them."
She felt that the person sent by Ms. Tang should be reliable.
Meng Yu blinked, "Song Zhaolin? He won't come again. He was fired by the Jiang family."
Jiang Musheng was injured. Song Zhaolin went through so much trouble to find someone to make a kid run around in circles. The Jiang family has already abandoned him.
When Uncle Zhou heard this, he couldn't help but ask, "How did you know?"
Qin Hongfei said, "Because she was sent by my brother."
Uncle Zhou was suspicious, "Qin Yan, can he contact you?"
Qin Hongfei nodded, "Yes, as long as I am willing." Anytime, anywhere.
Seeing that the old man still didn't quite believe it, she was quite patient with this old man who was only taking care of his sisters, "Can you show us your skills?" She was talking to Yu Chi and Meng Yu.
Yu Chi had never been questioned like this before, but he didn't lose his temper. "How do you show off?"
At the door, a tall figure walked in and said, "Grandpa, let them split a brick with one hand for you to see, is that enough?"
Yu Chi and Meng Yu turned around and met Tang Jinnan's eyes. They were both surprised, "Jinnan..." The word "Young Master" was swallowed back by Tang Jinnan's gaze.
Qin Hongfei didn't care about this. "Brick splitting?...It seems possible."
Uncle Zhou looked at Yu Chi, splitting bricks, acting in a TV series, "Then let him split them. If he can't split them, will you come with me to Qin City?"
Tang Jinnan agreed for her, "Okay."
Qin Hongfei looked at him, and when their eyes met, she immediately felt relieved. Since Tang Xiaojin said it was okay, then she should be trustworthy.
The thing that was most in short supply in the countryside was red tiles and bricks. Yu Chi went back to the yard and looked around, brought back three bricks and stacked them together, then he chopped them down with his palm, and the three bricks were neatly cut in the middle, without his hand being hurt at all.
Uncle Zhou struggled: "... No matter how powerful one person is, what if the other party comes with a lot of people?"
Meng Yu said brightly, "It's okay, it's okay. I'm here. I won't split bricks. I'll kill a chicken for you, old man." As she spoke, she swung the steel wire in her hand. No one saw how she did it. Anyway, the chicken she caught didn't even make a sound before it died.
Uncle Zhou: “…”
Back to the 1990s, she became rich through scientific research
