Universe dominance
Chapter 51, borrowing money
Along the way, he greeted the old people and uncles in the village, and Li Fu soon returned to his home. Li Fu's family was really poor, and his parents were honest farmers. Although Li Fu's father, Li Erlang, was known as the second oldest child, he was actually The youngest among all the siblings.
The older generation favors boys over girls, and all the daughters they have are from other families, so only boys are valued. Li Erlang has 4 sisters and 1 brother, making him the sixth oldest.
Li Fu's grandfather and grandmother had already passed away before Li Fu was born, so after the two brothers Li Fu and Li Xing were born, Li Fu's parents could not leave their children to their grandparents like other families, and they could take care of them themselves. If you go out to work to make money, you can only stay at home and farm.
Farming at home is exhausting all year round, just hoping to make some income from selling millet. This is a hilly area, and each family only has so much land. In addition, they have to provide for the two brothers Li Fu and Li Xing. I am a student, so you can imagine that I lived a very poor life.
If it weren't for the fact that in the next few years, there would be less and less farmland in the village, and it would be possible to farm other people's land, even providing for Li Fu and his brothers to study would be a big problem.
The family's house is still made of mud and bricks. They are the only family in the village that has not yet built a new house. Li Fu's parents have always wanted to save money to build a new house. They have saved a little bit over the years, but they see As Li Fu was about to graduate from college and get married, the matter of building a new house could only be put on hold indefinitely.
"Mom, I'm back."
Before Li Furen entered the door, he could already smell the aroma of his mother Liu Shuixiu's cooking, which was his favorite dish.
"came back."
Hearing her son's voice, Liu Shuixiu walked out of the kitchen and looked at Li Fu in front of her with a smile on her face. Her son was now successful, and parents were naturally the happiest.
"Where's Dad?"
Li Fu walked around his house. It was actually just two rooms, but although it was a little dilapidated, it was neatly and cleanly taken care of by Liu Shuixiu, and filled with the warmth of home.
"Don't mention it, hasn't your dad been urging you to come back recently? He is really a coward. Now, he is already running around in a hurry. I guess by now, he is probably entangled with those relatives in our family again."
When he mentioned Li Erlang, Li Fu's father, Liu Shui was so delicate that his voice became even louder while cooking.
"What's going on? Why are you so anxious about something?"
Li Fu didn't know why. Now that Li Fu was also a rich man, and his younger brother Li Xing was very promising and was admitted to university, there could be something that would make his father anxious.
"What do our relatives and father have to worry about?"
Speaking of these relatives in his family, Li Fu felt even more strange. Although Li Fu's family was poor, they did not borrow money from them. His ancestors did not have any treasures worth fighting for. Li Fu's father was such an honest and kind person. Farmers, what things are worth bothering with?
"Well, when it comes to this matter, it's not your father's fault. He's so cowardly."
The more Liu Shuixiu talked about it, the angrier she became. She even stopped copying the food. Tears fell down as she spoke. Thinking about how she had followed Li Erlang for the rest of her life, she had never wanted to eat well, live well or wear good clothes. He had worked hard all his life and survived all the hard times, but Li Fu's father was still so cowardly that he even shed tears.
"Mom, it's okay, it's okay, I have a son."
Li Fu saw his mother crying and hurried over to comfort her.
"Brother, here's the thing. Didn't you pay 5 million to your home? Our family was planning to build a new house last month, but my father actually revealed the 5 million. Now we’ve stoked a hornet’s nest, and all our relatives came to our house to borrow money.”
Li Xing on the side took over and began to tell the cause of the matter.
"Your second aunt's family is so rich that they come to us to borrow money. They have several houses in the county. Their son drives a car worth hundreds of thousands, but he has the nerve to borrow money from us, and he said he wanted to borrow 100 yuan as soon as he opened his mouth. Ten thousand."
"And your third aunt's family. In order to raise your tuition, we were short of 500 yuan and couldn't borrow money from their family. Now they are shamelessly borrowing money from our family, saying that they want to buy a car for their son. I want to get married, but I want to borrow 500,000 yuan to buy a BMW.”
"And your uncle's family. When your father was bullied, your uncle didn't even ask. Now when someone comes to borrow money, he talks about brotherhood. The first thing he asks is 2 million."
After saying this, Liu Shuixiu immediately said loudly, and one family after another read it out, and the tears fell even more disappointingly.
"Borrow money?"
Li Fu frowned instantly. He did not expect that such a thing would happen. Almost every household in the countryside has many relatives, including seven aunts and eight aunts. It is really hard to count.
"Not only these, those distant relatives who have never been in contact with each other before have come to our house since you appeared on the TV station. Almost all of them borrowed money from our family under various excuses. They all treat our family like fat pigs. Look, I’m afraid that I will fall behind others and not get a share.”
Li Xing on the side also had a sad face when he said this and seemed very unhappy. After he returned home, various relatives came to his door almost every day, many of whom he had never met before and had no contact with.
"Dad lent all the money?"
Li Fu frowned after hearing this. Li Fu knew very well what kind of character his father Li Erlang was. To put it nicely, he was an honest and kind person who didn't know how to reject people at all. To put it badly, he was like Li Fu's mother. What Liu Shuixiu calls useless.
"If I hadn't hid the bankbook, your father would have lent out every cent of the 5 million you gave him. He is really a coward. Are those relatives people who are short of money? Let's talk about brothers and sisters. Qing, your dad didn’t know how to speak in an instant, he just said whatever he said.”
"Your dad actually nodded and agreed to borrow the money. Do you know how much each of those people had to borrow?"
"Your eldest aunt's family said they wanted to borrow 2 million, your second aunt's family said they wanted to borrow 5 million, and your third aunt's family said they wanted to borrow 4 million... Each one is more ruthless than the other, and the total amount of money those people want to borrow now has reached several thousand. Ten thousand."
"And now all of them feel dissatisfied. The eldest aunt's family feels that they have less, and they ask your father to borrow more. The second aunt's family also feels that they have less, and your uncle's family even more. All the relatives are dissatisfied. , everyone is afraid that they will get something less, and now they are pulling your dad every day to ask your dad to agree to lend money, and I don’t know how much money has been promised. "
"Ahem!"
The more Liu Shuixiu talked, the angrier she became. She started coughing and tears kept flowing down her face. Seeing that her son was promising, the hard life he had endured all his life was about to come to an end. He could live a good life for a few days, but Li Fu's father couldn't even refuse.
After understanding the whole story, Li Fu felt confident. Li Fu didn't find it strange at all. With his father's character, this was really the case. Someone had never asked Li Fu's father for help. They will not refuse. As for borrowing money, Li Fu's family was very poor in the past, so no one borrowed money. But now it's better, and everyone swarmed in all of a sudden.
"Mom, there's no need to be angry, let alone shed any tears. Dad is just too soft-hearted, so he didn't lend out the money."
Li Fu tried to comfort his mother, but his mother shed tears for such a bad thing, and his father was really speechless.
"That's right, there is nothing to cry about. Relatives should help each other, but borrowing money does not help the poor. What's more, none of them are poor. It's not that they are really short of money. They just feel Brother has become rich and wants to benefit from our family. He keeps saying that he wants to borrow money. If he really lends it, who will pay it back? "
"Now the money is still in my brother's hands, and these relatives are already quarreling over there. Everyone is talking about how they helped our family before, so how much money should be borrowed? The typical meat is still there There is already a quarrel between heaven and earth over how to eat.”
Li Xing also said that he had never had a peaceful day since he returned home. People came to see him every day, mentioning their past friendship and so on, and then the lion asked to borrow money.
"Mom, don't be angry. What's the point of being angry? The money is with your son. They can't even borrow a penny. Back then, when our family borrowed money from relatives, only my aunt's family and uncle's family could help. Everyone else is a tough guy who has nothing to lose, and now they want to borrow money, so it’s really embarrassing for them to ask.”
Li Fu smiled and continued to comfort his mother. In fact, this matter is quite complicated. In rural areas, there are too many trivial matters between relatives and neighbors. Sometimes they will quarrel every day if they are not handled well. From then on, they became enemies and never interacted with each other until death.
It's easy to say that it's actually very simple. As long as Li Fu's father is a little harder-hearted and knows how to refuse, things that are originally very simple will not become so annoying. These relatives and friends don't really need to borrow money. In case of emergency, just say no directly and neatly.
As for what they said about this and that, there is absolutely no need to pay attention to it. For example, Aunt Li Fusan's family said they wanted to borrow money to buy a BMW to get married. This is even more nonsense. They don't even make excuses. It's obvious that they borrowed money but never paid it back. , came here to rob.
"Son, you must not be like your father. Otherwise, even if you have a net worth of hundreds of millions, you will not be able to satisfy their growing appetite. Now they are all like lions, and they are all greedy. I’m less afraid than others.”
After hearing what Li Fu said, Liu Shuixiu also wiped away her tears and couldn't help but tell Li Fu.
"Do not worry!"
