Chapter 89 Usury

With Gu Lanting, the two of them quickly arrived at Yuan Yuan's house.

This is the old city area, many of which have been demolished, and the houses are relatively dilapidated.

Just as Gu Lanting and Yuan Xiao walked to the door, a porcelain bowl flew towards them.

Yuan Xiao's pupils shrank, and it was about to hit his head!

Bang——

Gu Lanting quickly slapped the bowl against the wall, and the air pressure around him suddenly dropped.

Yuan Xiao was a little scared and grabbed Gu Lanting's hand, "Are you okay?"

Gu Lanting's face instantly changed from gloomy to bright, "It's okay, don't be afraid."

His palm was broad and his five fingers were slender, and he still had enough to hold Yuan Xiao's hands.

Because of years of holding guns, the palms of her hands were covered with a thick layer of scars. Now they were just red, but not injured.

Yuan Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked inside.

Several big men were rummaging inside, wearing cotton-padded jackets, shorts, and flip-flops, chewing betel nuts, and cursing while rummaging.

Yuan Xiao heard a scream and recognized the voice as Yuan Yuan.

"It's my deskmate!"

Gu Lanting pulled her and walked in front.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Yuan Yuan being pushed to the ground, and the palm of her hand was cut by glass fragments on the ground.

"Yuan Yuan!"

Yuan Xiao walked over and helped her up.

Yuan Yuan's face was covered with tears, and she thought she was dreaming when she saw Yuan Xiao.

"Xiao... why are you here!"

Her eyes were red, her face was full of shame, and she didn't even dare to meet Yuan Xiao's eyes.

Then she pushed Yuan Xiao, "Go!"

Yuan Xiao took out a clean handkerchief from his schoolbag and covered her palms, "Who are these people?"

"Hey! The nosy people are here?"

Before Yuan Yuan could speak, she heard the leading man said to Yuan Xiao in a sinister tone.

Yuan Yuan shuddered, "My dad borrowed money from someone else at high interest."

Yuan Xiao frowned, "Aren't your parents divorced?"

"Little girl, the father's debt is the daughter's debt! We can't find her father, so we can only come here to find her! One hundred yuan, if you don't pay us back today, we will have to visit you every day!"

Yuan Yuan sobbed, "You have searched our house thoroughly, did you find the money?"

Then he heard the big man who was still searching in the back say, "Damn it! Brother Tian, ​​there is really not a penny here!"

The room was also filled with worthless things!

The man called Brother Tian licked his lips and stared at Yuan Xiao up and down, "Is this your friend?"

Yuan Xiao was about to sneer when he heard Gu Lanting sneer.

Then a shadow flashed before her eyes, and before she could react, she saw the big man, Brother Tian, ​​being knocked to the ground with a bang.

Yuan Xiao sighed, this sound must have hurt.

Gu Lanting looked at the man on the ground lazily, "Where are you looking?"

Brother Tian wanted to yell, but then his forehead was pressed against something cold and smelled of gunpowder.

He shuddered suddenly, his pupils widened, "Grandpa! Take it easy, be careful of accidental discharge!"

Yuan Yuan screamed in a low voice. She had never seen a real gun, but she had seen toy guns.

This iron-blooded man, she didn't think that what he was holding in his hand would be fake!

Yuan Xiao protected her, "Don't be afraid, he is a policeman."

When Tian Ge heard the word policeman, he began to beg for mercy: "Master, we are just here to collect debts! If her father doesn't pay us back, we will be left with nothing!"

Yuan Xiao picked up something on the ground and threw it over, "Her parents divorced a long time ago, and her father never raised her. Why should she pay back the money she owes?"

"Little aunt! There is nothing we can do. Her father moved and we can't find him!"

Yuan Yuan was stunned. She didn't know her father moved until today.

"Calculate how much money it is." Gu Lanting said in a calm voice.

Brother Tian was surprised when he heard it, "One hundred!"

Gu Lanting raised his thin lips slightly and put away the gun in his hand, "Okay, then pay back one hundred, give me money."

Yuan Xiao held back his laughter and stretched out his hand to Brother Tian, ​​"Give me money."

Brother Tian was stunned, "What money?"

"You broke so many things in someone's house, and you don't have to pay back?" Yuan Xiao raised his eyebrows.

"No-"

Brother Tian met Gu Lanting's deep eyes and swallowed the words on his lips.

"Here, give me money!" Brother Tian said with pain.

He counted out ten big reunion bills from his pocket and handed them out with his eyes closed.

Yuan Xiao took out a big knot from the group and said crisply: "Every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. Go find her father to pay the money he owes. What's the point of bullying a woman or a girl? Yuan Yuan, do you know where your father might be?"

Yuan Yuan hesitated with tears in her eyes.

"Your father doesn't treat you as his daughter, so why do you treat him as your father?"

Yuan Yuan twisted her fingers, "We have a self-built house in Xiaxi Village. If he is not in the county, he may have returned to his hometown."

Tian Ge got up from the ground and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! We're going to collect the debt now, and I promise not to make trouble again!"

After the group left, Yuan Xiao helped to clean up Yuan Yuan's room.

Yuan Yuan's room was really small and simple, with only one room, bathroom and kitchen inside.

"Where's your mother?"

"My mother is in the hospital. The doctor said she fainted from low blood sugar."

Yuan Xiao took out a few big group notes from his wallet. "Please clean up the house first, and then go to the hospital to take care of your mother."

Yuan Yuan refused: "I can't take your money. You have helped me a lot."

Yuan Xiao occasionally took her out for dinner. She didn't have money to pay him back now, but she remembered everything and would definitely pay her back when she had money in the future.

Yuan Xiao's eyes widened. "I didn't give it to you for free. Where does your mother work?"

"She, she usually takes some odd jobs, such as cleaning houses and washing clothes for others."

Yuan Yuan said this, feeling inferior and distressed, and felt very uncomfortable.

Yuan Xiao put the money on the table, "Yuan Yuan, I am short of people here. After your mother is discharged from the hospital, you can ask your mother to consider whether she wants to come here to work as a weaving worker."

Last time Zhang Qingya's second aunt left, Zhang Qingya found a few people with good temperament and down-to-earth temperament.

Yuan Yuan stared at her blankly, tears welling up in her eyes, and murmured, "Can I?"

"Of course you can, the wages are better than your mother's odd jobs. But if your mother comes to work for me, you can't live here. We have a yard in the east of the city, you can move in and live with us."

Old Lady Yang's yard was empty, and Yuan Xiao wanted her to come and weave cloth for the female workers.

But those female workers all had families in the county, so the rooms in that yard were empty and no one lived in them.

Yuan Yuan felt like she was hit by a gold coin, and was ecstatic.

As soon as she opened her mouth, she sobbed and cried.

"Wuwuwu... Yuanxiao, you are so good to me. I will definitely work hard to repay you in the future!"

Yuanxiao patted her head like a little adult, "No need to repay, just study hard, and finish the exercises I gave you last time, I need to check."

Yuan Yuan's crying stopped abruptly, and her chubby face fell.

"Okay, you take care of your mother's affairs first, and come to my house when you are ready."

After Yuanxiao finished speaking, he left with Gu Lanting.

"Let's go to the department store!"

After solving one thing, Yuanxiao's voice was quite light and his face was full of spirit.

Gu Lanting looked into her eyes, which were dark and shiny, like two gems.

"Very happy?"

Yuanxiao nodded heavily.

"You have a good heart, but there are too many people like this in the world,

and you can't help them all." Although this statement is a bit discouraging, it is true.

Yuan Xiao was not discouraged, "There are many people like this, helping one less is one less."

Do not let a small kindness go unrewarded.
