At around six o'clock in the evening, the Chu family had just finished dinner and were gathering in the main room to watch TV when two aunts, Sun Mei and Han Lian, arrived with their husbands.
"arrive!"
Outside the Chu family's door, the Sun and Han families who came together put their bicycles against the wall and came to the two vermilion doors together.
Han Lian looked at the tall door and wondered, "Sister Sun, do you think Hengzi can help us?"
"I guess we're close. Based on our relationship with Hengzi, who can we help if he doesn't help us?" Sun Mei confidently patted her sagging chest. Her strong body put Mavericks and others who were facing her to shame.
.
"I don't want to say whether I can help or not. Are you two asking for help? I have never seen anyone give gifts to large-scale production!" Uncle Sun smiled wryly and shook the net bag in his hand. There was a production line in it.
Cigarettes, a pack of pastries, a few apples, and a bottle of Erguotou, which is really a bit shabby.
"Who says it's not the case!" Uncle Han, who had something similar to his own, was also quite speechless: "Don't wait until you blow it out for us."
"What do you two know!" Sun Mei turned her head and rolled her eyes at the two of them, and said with reasonable reasoning: "Our Hengzi never accepts gifts from his subordinates, no matter how good our relationship is. You don't care what you give him.
I'll definitely give it back to you when the person comes back. Since you have to pay it back anyway, why did you buy something so expensive?"
"That's too ugly." Uncle Sun still felt it was inappropriate.
"Go, go, go, let's go and watch carefully."
Sun Mei was too lazy to talk nonsense with him anymore, stretched out her thick arms to pull the man away, took a few steps to the door, and gently tapped the door knocker a few times.
"Dong dong dong!"
A melodious and thick voice sounded from the door.
"Who?"
Not long after, Yang Guizhi's voice sounded from behind the door.
Sun Mei has been here several times and is familiar with the elder sister. When she heard the voice, she quickly shouted: "It's me, sister, Sun Mei!"
"Hey, Sister Sun!"
Yang Guizhi hurriedly ran a few steps forward and opened the door. She greeted Sun and Han politely, and after getting acquainted with her two uncles who were meeting for the first time, she welcomed them in.
"This house is really magnificent!"
"There must be almost twenty rooms, right?"
"Good guy, his family is bigger than ours!"
It was the first time for both uncles to come here. When they came in, they were amazed when they saw the carved beams and painted buildings and the green tiles and red eaves of the Chu family's mansion. The two of them looked around and followed their wives as they walked in, and soon entered the backyard.
.
"Hengzi, Hengzi! Sister Sun and Sister Han are here."
As soon as Fang walked into the backyard patio, Yang Guizhi hurriedly shouted to the main room.
"Tsk! It's here after all."
On the Luohan bed, Chu Heng, who was holding Chu Zhecheng with one hand and little Huniu with the other, enjoying the family happiness, sighed helplessly, turned to look at Ni Yinghong again, and handed the child to Qin Jingru and her eldest cousin.
, and his wife hurried out to greet him.
"Hey, I told you to come and come. What can you bring?"
"There's no one who comes here empty-handed. Besides, it's not the same thing as before."
"Uncle Sun and Uncle Han, we haven't seen each other for a while, are they all fine?"
"Thanks to you, it's good, it's good."
After a few polite words, Chu Heng and his wife invited them into the main room, and then made tea, brought peanuts, melon seeds, fruits and other gifts to entertain them. It can be said that the etiquette aspect was quite thoughtful.
A few people just drank tea in the main room and chatted for a while. It was almost time to see Sun Mei, and she finally revealed the reason for her visit today.
"Hengzi, I guess you've guessed why your Aunt Han and I are here today. I won't beat around the bush with you on our relationship. Just give us a clear answer today. Can you share this house?"
Can you help me?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Han Lian, who was talking to Yang Guizhi, and her two uncles, who were smoking cigarettes, raised their heads and looked at Chu Heng expectantly.
"this……"
Chu Heng frowned, looked up at the two families with an expression of embarrassment, and said: "Aunt Sun, Aunt Han, I really can't help you with this. The house is not something else. There are so many pairs of eyes staring at me.
I have to give you two a backdoor, and you must not be scolded to death? How can I convince the public? How can I do my job? I hope you two can understand me."
Sun Mei, who never expected to be rejected, instantly froze the smile on her face, and at the same time, some barriers arose in her heart.
If others don't know Chu Heng, how can she not know?
This guy is a local emperor in the entire sixth district, and he is not afraid of others gossiping, so going through the back door is not a problem for him!
But now, he was shirking himself on this matter.
This meaning is already very obvious. It is obvious that they think these two old colleagues are useless and don't want to help?
After Han Lian and others heard Chu Heng's answer, their bright eyes dimmed instantly.
But Aunt Han was still a little unwilling, and couldn't help but beg: "Hengzi, please help us. Your Aunt Sun's eight sons are crowded into one room, and Fang Wu is about to get married. My family...
…”
"Aunt Han, please stop talking. We have known each other for so long. How can I not know what is going on with your family?" Chu Heng smiled bitterly and picked up the teapot. While pouring tea for the two families, he said: "And
Based on our relationship, if I can really help with this, wouldn’t it be necessary for you guys to come to your door in person? I’ll just do it for you beautifully.”
"You two, do you think this will work?"
As he said that, he turned to look at his wife. Ni Yinghong quickly took out two envelopes that had been prepared long ago from her pocket and handed them to her husband.
Then Chu Heng put the two envelopes in front of Sun Mei and Han Lian, who looked ugly, and said with a serious expression: "These two envelopes contain one hundred yuan, just think of it as my loan to you, there is no need to rush.
Also, let's talk about it when we have it. You two can take this money and rent a house for my brothers to get married. As for the matter of dividing houses, I really can't do anything."
This move of his could be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous, but it also put Sun Mei and Han Lian on fire, and they could no longer say a word of wrong from him.
Indeed, Chu Heng did not help them, but they gave each of them a hundred yuan!
This is not a small amount.
An ordinary worker's three-month salary is just this, and if people give it to you as they say, do you have the nerve to ask for anything else?
"What are you doing, take it back quickly!"
"That's right, we can't take this money, put it away quickly!"
Only then did the two sisters realize that their request was really difficult for Chu Heng, and for a moment they felt guilty.
"Hurry up and take it, Aunt Sun and Aunt Han. We both feel sorry for not being able to help you solve the house problem. If you don't even take this, I will feel even worse." Ni Yinghong said.
Then he pushed the envelope back.
However, the two aunts refused to take anything, so after arguing with each other for a few times, they put down the money and left in a hurry, without mentioning anything about dividing the house. Even when they left, one or two of them were filled with self-blame.
I feel that I am a little ignorant and have caused trouble to others.
And this is the solution Chu Heng came up with.
Just as Aunt Sun and his two aunts knew him, he also knew these two aunts very well.
He knew that these two people were honest people and would definitely not ask for his money shamelessly, so he gave the money in one fell swoop, which was just a formality, but it also made them indirectly understand their difficulties, and they didn't know how to do it.
It made them complain and hurt the harmony among their old colleagues.
A relationship crisis was quietly resolved by this guy.
