Dad Xue sighed softly, "You, if it's a small matter, don't bother him."
"Since I'm here, I have to go and see him." Xue Ling frowned and said, "Uncle Zheng and I are both partners and friends for ages. It would be fine if I don't know, but how can I not care about it?"
Dad Xue nodded, as if he remembered something, and asked: "It's April now. Has he calculated your money for the first quarter for you?"
"No." Xue Ling shook his head and said, "If he has urgent use, he will use it first. When he is rich in the future, he will slowly settle it and repay me."
"Yes." Xue's father said warmly: "You say this to him so that he can slightly relieve some of the pressure. In the late middle age, there are old people above and young people below. He can support a family in such a big family.
It is really not easy for Lao Zheng to take relief from relatives and friends outside."
"I know." Xue Ling smiled bitterly, "Uncle Zheng is so good..."
In recent years, their sweater factory has made great profits, and the benefits are better than clothing wholesale stores. She invested in building a mall, and made a one-time return, and there were also various rents and house selling money.
But Uncle Zheng not only has one factory, but also another old factory. He should have made a lot of money, but unfortunately he was a wife who loved gambling and other relatives and friends who had reached out to him, dragged him down.
Xue's mother came over, listened to a rough answer, and sighed, "I sent him some Ganoderma lucidum to nourish his body. I heard that his hair suddenly turned white, so eating Ganoderma lucidum and sesame paste is the best. He is only in his fifties.
Suddenly, I lost a lot of hair and half of my head. It seemed that I was much older than your father. It made people feel really distressed to see it."
Xue Ling stood up and said, "I'll go over and see him."
"Wait!" Xue's mother said, "I just went to the kitchen and asked my aunt to make some omelettes for you, and then go there after eating. I'll sit down and chat later. Maybe I'll come back at noon, so don't starve me.
Little grandchildren.”
When Xue Ling heard about what he had eaten, she suddenly felt hungry.
"Okay, I'll eat it before going."
The kitchen is not yet ready for cooking, and most of the workers are eating outside for half a day off today. The aunt in the kitchen is very free and after a few strokes, the hot egg cakes are out.
Xue Ling chewed in big mouthfuls, drinking tea while eating very satisfied.
"Slow down!" Xue's mother scolded: "Be careful to burn your mouth!"
Xue Ling smiled bitterly: "I have eaten like this recently and can't control myself. As long as I start to eat, I can't stop. I almost swallowed it one by one."
"It's okay, eat more, it probably won't be possible." Xue's father said warmly: "The children in your belly need more nutrition, so it's definitely right if you eat more."
Xue's mother couldn't bear to talk to her anymore, so she helped her blow so that her daughter wouldn't burn her mouth.
Although you love to teach a lesson, your children are the treasures of your parents. As long as it is for her good, you can throw any rules and etiquette aside.
After Xue Ling was full, he took his stomach and went to the factory next door.
The sweater factory is not on holiday, and the automatic sweater is knitting wool, and the workers are coming and going to take care of it.
Xue Ling asked Zheng Sanyuan where he was. When he heard that he was sleeping in the office, he knocked on the door lightly.
Soon, the door opened.
Zheng Sanyuan's face was haggard, and he lost a lot of weight. His front was bald and his hair at the back turned white. His eyes were red, and he was wearing a wrinkled white shirt, and his body was covered in embarrassment.
Xue Ling was stunned and couldn't recognize him for a moment.
Zheng Sanyuan smiled and said warmly: "Ling Ling is here... Come in!"
Xue Ling looked at him and couldn't help but have red eyes.
A man who is so generous and confident, who is tormented by life like this - it really hurts!
Zheng Sanyuan pointed to the office and explained: "I live here recently... it's a bit messy. Come on, you sit on the sofa, which is softer."
Xue Ling sniffed, sat on the sofa, and looked at him choked and couldn't speak.
Zheng Sanyuan smiled slightly and said sadly: "I...I'm fine. It must be your parents who told you? Alas! I came through the wind and waves, and I haven't experienced any wind and waves. I'll be fine if this wave has passed."
Xue Ling nodded.
Zheng Sanyuan sighed and said, "Ling Ling, I originally planned to call you in the next two days. I misappropriated your money for the first quarter. I'm sorry... I'm really sorry,"
"I don't need it, you can use it first." Xue Ling chuckled: "You have to cheer up and take good care of the factory. Are you still afraid of not having money to make money in the future? What you said just now is that this wave of storms has passed, so it's good.
Now.”
Zheng Sanyuan smiled, his eyes turned slightly red.
"Lingling, thank you. You are as kind as your parents. Your father has helped me a lot in the past two years, but it's a pity that I... can't make progress. Not only did I not save any money, I still owe debts now
.”
Xue Ling couldn't help but frown and asked, "How much do you owe? Do you need my help?"
"No need." Zheng Sanyuan smiled bitterly: "You can help me with the money. The gambling debt is a big hole, and it can't be filled in no matter how much you fill it."
Xue Ling was silent and couldn't ask any more questions.
Zheng Sanyuan touched his hair and sighed: "I look ugly and old like this, right? I don't dare to look in the mirror now."
Xue Ling shook her head, "It's okay... Anyway, you'll get older sooner or later, and it's almost time to get older."
Zheng Sanyuan laughed and whispered: "It's a pity that I can't convince myself, otherwise I won't be able to do it anymore. Ling Ling, I have always felt tired recently... it's not the kind of physical fatigue. It's the heart... it's very tired and tired.
.”
Xue Ling sighed and asked, "How is it now? If you move here, what should you do at home?"
Zheng Sanyuan whispered: "The oldest child is twenty years old and is already studying outside. The other two are in high school. I applied for accommodation for them and went home on weekends. The house is messy, and it is even worse for the child to live in it.
It’s better to go out and live.”
"The house is in a mess?" Xue Ling raised his eyebrows and asked, "I'm here to collect debts?"
"More than that," Zheng Sanyuan sighed and explained: "The woman sold everything she could sell at home and planned to sell the house. Now the house is in chaos, and I am too lazy to pay attention to her anymore. She can do whatever she wants.
.”
Xue Ling asked: "Then...you hide here? What should you and your aunt decide now?"
Zheng Sanyuan was silent for a moment and whispered: "Lingling, if you were someone else, I might not be able to tell the truth. But we have worked together for many years, and I am very close to your parents or you, and I am almost walking around like relatives.
.I'll tell the truth. I-I plan to divorce."
Xue Ling raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Uncle Zheng used to obey his wife, and he would give her whatever she wanted and listen to her. Now that she has made such a decision, she has obviously completely disappointed her heart. Otherwise, people like him who love her family and children would never do this.
Decisive plan.
Zheng Sanyuan smiled sadly, "I'm very tired... If this continues, I don't know how to live my life. Since I was sensible, I got the village head to move bricks to the brick factory to make money and go home to help buy rice.
Food. At that time, my biggest wish every day was to be able to eat a little bit full and not to be hungry all day and night."
