Chapter 11 Homecoming for Debt

Zhang Tiesheng was also wondering if Scar and the One-Eyed Dragon were here again.

In fact, Zhang Tiesheng was not just joking about asking them to lose money.

But he didn't believe that they would be so honest and take the initiative to send money.

"I'll go take a look." Zhang Tiesheng said and walked towards the door.

When he opened the door and saw that it was his aunt Zhang Hongxia, he was relieved.

"Auntie, what can I do for you?"

Zhang Hongxia ignored him at all and rushed inside.

Zhang Tiesheng immediately followed in.

Seeing her look like this, he didn't feel like there was anything good going on.

"Where is Zhang Dewang?" Zhang Hongxia glanced at Zhang Xinyue.

Seeing her angry look, Zhang Xinyue timidly replied: "My dad is resting in the house."

Zhang Hongxia ignored the two of them and broke into Zhang Dewang's room directly.

"Zhang Dewang, you should pay back the money you owe me today." Zhang Hongxia went straight to the point.

Her face was full of indifference, without any regard for the affection and affection between the two of them.

Hearing that she was here to ask for money, Zhang Dewang felt ashamed and helpless, and said in a low voice: "Sister, you don't know about my family's situation. For the sake of us being siblings, please give me a little more grace."

Zhang Xinyue's tuition fees were all borrowed.

And Zhang Hongxia is their biggest creditor.

"There is still a period of grace. When I borrowed the money, I said I would pay it back at the end of the year, but it has been almost a year now. Whether you are smashing pots or selling iron today, you must give me the money, otherwise, I will not leave.

Come on." Zhang Hongxia sat down on the stool, looking unreasonable.

That's exactly what I said when I borrowed the money.

At that time, Zhang Tiesheng was still a normal person, thinking that he would work hard and pay back the money at the end of the year.

But who knew something would happen later. Not only could he not go out to work, but he also had to take care of the paralyzed Zhang Dewang at home.

Not to mention how difficult my life was.

The money owed to Zhang Hongxia has been delayed until now.

"Auntie, we are all a family. It's not like we don't want to pay back the money. I'll go out to find a job tomorrow, and I'll give it all to you when I get paid." Zhang Xinyue also said in a good voice.

When something like this happened, she knew she could no longer read this book.

Now the family really needs her to make money.

After hearing this, Zhang Tiesheng felt extremely sad.

"I am a family with you. I have been so unlucky for eight lifetimes that we are all so poor." Zhang Hongxia did not shy away from it at all and scolded several of them in person.

Her current behavior shows that she doesn't regard them as relatives at all.

However, these words had a great impact on Zhang Xinyue's self-esteem.

She always believed that blood is thicker than water, and a family should help each other.

But in Zhang Hongxia, she only saw indifference and oppression.

"Auntie, I promise you, I will pay you back the money I owe you in a week." Zhang Tiesheng said seriously.

The money from selling Ganoderma lucidum is enough to pay off Zhang Hongxia's debt here.

But the money was not enough to pay Zhang Xinyue's tuition.

So he could only hold Zhang Hongxia back first, and then think of a way.

But Zhang Hongxia has heard the same words many times and doesn't believe it at all.

And when she came here today, she was determined to get the money back.

"Do you think I'm a three-year-old? You said half a year before, and now you say a week." Zhang Hongxia rolled her eyes at Zhang Tiesheng, "Besides, a guy like you can make so much money in a week?"

It doesn't matter that Zhang Hongxia doesn't care about family ties, she still makes sarcastic remarks at every turn.

Zhang Tiesheng really couldn't swallow this tone.

When he wanted to speak, Zhang Xinyue beat him to it.

"Auntie, it's true that we owe you money, but you can't speak so harshly." Zhang Xinyue's eyes turned red with grievance.

Zhang Hongxia's indifference and ruthlessness really made her very sad.

"If you think what I said is unpleasant, then pay back the money as soon as possible. I'll leave immediately after paying it back." Zhang Hongxia folded her hands, looking like a shrew.

Zhang Dewang was so angry that he coughed several times, "Sister, we really have no money now. If we had money, we would have paid it back to you long ago. Look at me now..."

"Dede, don't pretend to be pitiful for me." Zhang Hongxia interrupted him, "My son is getting engaged soon. If I don't pay back the money today, it's useless to say anything."

She kept a straight face and left no room for negotiation.

Zhang Tiesheng turned around angrily and walked out.

Zhang Xinyue also knew that he felt wronged and wanted to comfort him, but was afraid that Zhang Hongxia would say something unpleasant to anger Zhang Dewang.

So she is in a dilemma now.

Zhang Tiesheng did not feel aggrieved, but was very angry.

He didn't go anywhere else, but went to the room to get money.

"Auntie, this is 3,000 yuan that I owe you. If I pay it back to you now, we will pay it back in the future." Zhang Tiesheng returned the money to her and said it loudly.

The clear debt he mentioned does not simply mean clearing all debts.

Even his relationship with Zhang Hongxia must be kept clean.

Today Zhang Hongxia made him see the ugliness of human nature, and he no longer wants to be related to such a person.

Zhang Hongxia is a person who loves money.

As soon as I got the money, my attitude immediately changed.

"I knew you were rich. What I just said was to encourage you. You should take it to your heart." Zhang Hongxia started counting the money with a smile.

Zhang Tiesheng felt like vomiting just looking at her ugly face.

"Auntie, now that we are settled, please go back. You are not welcome in this home." Zhang Tiesheng directly issued an eviction order.

Zhang Hongxia gave them a good look for the sake of money.

Now that Zhang Tiesheng wants to drive her away, she has changed her face again.

"Very good, even if you starve to death in the future, I will never look at you again." Zhang Hongxia stood up and left.

Zhang Dewang sighed deeply, not knowing what to say.

Zhang Xinyue didn't know where Zhang Tiesheng got all the money, but this time it was thanks to him.

"Brother, I'm going to find a job tomorrow. I don't want to drag this family down anymore." Zhang Xinyue said this with tears in her eyes.

These days, she has seen Zhang Tiesheng and Zhang Dewang's suffering, and she feels really sorry.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Just go to school with peace of mind and I will find a way to deal with the money." Zhang Tiesheng smiled and touched her head.

He himself has no culture, but he knows that only knowledge can change destiny.

Partly because he didn't want Zhang Xinyue to be trapped in this remote place all his life like him.

"But……"

Just as Zhang Xinyue spoke, there was a knock on the door outside.

Everyone in the room became serious.

Everyone is wondering if Zhang Hongxia is going to say something again.
