Rural Friends Circle
Chapter 30: Humanity is cold and indifferent
"Third daughter, you can't say that. A nephew is a nephew, but he is not as close as a son-in-law. If it were you, I would say that Li Hongshun ran away, and the money should be paid by the eldest daughter's family." Then, the eldest uncle's voice came out.
Tang Feng, who was originally calm, heard the eldest uncle's words that obviously favored the second aunt, and suddenly became angry. They are all sisters, how can a brother do this? This is too obvious to be partial.
Li Hongshun ran away with the young lady, did his parents also run away? After this happened, you didn't go to his parents, but came here to collect the debt. You really want to bully my family just because you see that my family is poor.
"Brother, what you said is not right. If Li Hongshun has no parents, and he ran away after owing money, it is understandable that you came here to find him, but his parents are still alive and not too old. If a son owes money and runs away, he should naturally ask his parents for the debt, not his father-in-law and mother-in-law." The uncle couldn't stand it anymore and said.
In the room, the second aunt put her hands on her waist, looking like a rural shrew. Her eyes were wide open, and she shouted and jumped at the top of her voice: "His parents said that the 20,000 yuan was borrowed by Li Hongshun and Tang Cuicui together. Now that Li Hongshun ran away, Tang Cuicui should pay it back. I don't care about anything else, I just want the money. If you can't pay it back, no one will have a good life."
What is a shrew? Tang Feng has thoroughly experienced it. This kind of unreasonable shrew is not uncommon in the countryside, but it is the first time Tang Feng has seen it. Fortunately, this woman is his mother's sister.
He clenched his fists, took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, stepped over the threshold, and walked into the house.
Inside the house, his mother, who was sitting on the sofa and wiping her tears, saw him come in, as if she had found her backbone, stood up, wiped her tears and walked up.
"Mom, go in and take care of my dad, let me handle this matter." Tang Feng said to his mother, worried about his father.
Since his father fell ill, the burden of this family has fallen on his shoulders. Over the years, he has gone through ups and downs, and he is no longer the boy who knew nothing and could do nothing.
After his mother entered the inner room, his eyes swept over everyone in the room one by one. He saw the hideous faces of his second aunt and second uncle, and the indifference and contempt of his first and second uncles.
These are all his good relatives. When they needed help the most, these people hid aside and watched the fun. Now that something happened, they came to make a fuss again, completely ignoring their father's health. From the bottom of their hearts, these people did not really regard them as relatives.
"Second aunt, you also know the situation of our family. Do you think our family can come up with 20,000 yuan now?" He did not get angry with anyone, but looked at his second aunt and asked word by word.
Now, he only hopes that there is still some humanity in this woman's heart, even if it is only a little bit, so that he can forgive her. After all, rural people, no family has a good life, and a loan of 20,000 yuan is a big number for anyone.
"I don't care what your family situation is. If you can't come up with the money, you can sell the land. I know that your family still has three acres of ponds. Those three acres of ponds can sell for tens of thousands of yuan at least." As soon as he finished speaking, the second aunt shouted again.
Want me to sell the three acres of pond! This is determined to drive my family to death. How could she not know that the three-acre pond is our family's only source of income? At this moment, Tang Feng's heart sank to the bottom.
"Second aunt, the three-acre pond is our family's only source of income. If we sell the pond, our family will really have no way to survive. We are all relatives, relatives. Can you bear to watch our family starve to death?"
"If you ask me, the three-acre pond should have been sold long ago. After paying back the money to your second aunt's family, we can also pay back the 20,000 yuan owed to my brothers. I can't watch my money go down the drain." Before the second aunt spoke, the uncle next to her spoke first.
These words without any human touch fell into Tang Feng's heart, like a needle piercing hard. The pain and coldness made him want to throw money at this old face.
Twenty thousand yuan, just for twenty thousand yuan, he can even give up family affection, how sad it is, even more sad is that the money he earns from selling a big fish now is more than twenty thousand yuan, is it possible that family affection is not as valuable as a fish!
"Brother, this is your sister's home, Xiaofeng is your nephew, how can you force them to death." There were tears in the eyes of the aunt, and she said with tears in her eyes.
"Humph, sister, nephew? They are not worthy, I feel ashamed to have such a sister and nephew." The uncle snorted, his old face was full of disdain, and he said in a yin and yang tone.
At this moment, the tears in the eyes of the aunt could not be stopped after all, and flowed down. The cruelest thing in this world may be the indifference of relatives.
"Tang Feng, you've been to high school, so you should understand that it's only natural to pay back debts. My uncle knows that you're having a hard time, so he won't take advantage of you. I'll give you 50,000 yuan for your three-acre pond and the wasteland next to it. Not only can you pay back the debts owed to our three families, but you can also keep 10,000 yuan, which is enough for your family to eat and drink for a year."
What is shameless and what is shameless? Perhaps, my uncle has interpreted these two words thoroughly. Tang Feng was almost amused. Was this monkey hired to amuse him?
Three acres of pond plus two acres of dry land, my uncle actually wanted to buy it with 50,000 yuan. It was a pity that he dared to think about it. If it were someone else, he would really go up and give the other person two slaps in the face to make him sober up.
"Brother, that... I don't want the 10,000 yuan for now." The second uncle, who usually speaks little, hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and spoke.
In this family, there are still one or two people with a little humanity. Although the second aunt is snobbish and looks down on their family, the second uncle still has a little humanity.
"You useless thing, you deserve to be poor all your life." The first uncle glared at the second uncle and scolded him angrily.
"Uncle, you will be rewarded for not kicking someone when they are down today." Looking at his uncle, Tang Feng said word by word.
"It is natural to pay back debts. We in the Tang family are not the kind of people without conscience. I will pay you back every penny of the money I owe you, and today. However, our land will never be sold. The land was passed down from our ancestors. Anyone who dares to sell the land is an unfilial descendant."
"Hmph, why are you pretending to be so arrogant? If you don't sell the land, what can you use to pay off your debts? With your family's current situation, who will lend you money? If you can borrow 10,000 yuan today, I will take your surname." The uncle snorted disdainfully and said in a yin-yang tone.
