After sitting down and chatting with them for a while, Wu Lijiang brought up the matter of borrowing money.
"Er Fatty, you also know that there are not enough crops in the fields now. Some time ago, the boy from Lao Li's family in our village went to the south. I heard that there is gold all over there, and you can make money if you go there. You see the peak
There is nothing to do at home. What your third uncle and I are saying is that you have seen a lot outside and you are a college student, so we want to lend you some money to help Jianfeng as capital and let him go to the south to have a try!"
Wu Jianye asked noncommittally: "Uncle, how much money do you want to borrow?"
Wu Lijiang chuckled and said: "It's not much, just five hundred yuan. When Jianfeng makes money later, let him pay you back!"
Wu Jianye sneered in his heart: "Uncle, my monthly allowance in school is only 25 yuan. Even if I don't eat or drink for a year, I can't make up 500 yuan!"
Wu Jianfeng said unhappily: "Didn't you go to college for more than two years? Besides, I heard that you are going to make a movie this year, and you can still earn hundreds of dollars. I will make this money again."
It’s not that I won’t pay you back, but when I make a lot of money, I will pay you back double the amount!”
It must have been Wu Shuangqing's big mouth who said it. Wu Jianye didn't think much about it: "You can't say that. I have to eat in Yanjing. Even if I go to make a movie, I still have to have some money in my pocket.
What if something happens?"
"Whatever happens when you make a movie is controlled by the state anyway. If you don't want to borrow it, just say you don't want to borrow it!" Wu Jianfeng muttered.
"Jianfeng, don't talk nonsense!" Wu Lijiang scolded, and then smiled and said to Wu Jianye: "I also know that it is more difficult for you there, and there is nothing you can do about it. Jianfeng is already so old, and he hasn't married yet.
Well, you can't just watch him be a bachelor all his life, right?"
Wu Jianfeng is a well-known second-rate boy in the village, so that girl is willing to marry him.
"Uncle, I really want to help him, but I really have no money!" Wu Jianye spread his hands, saying that he had no money anyway.
"Then can you help your classmates borrow some? If I see Feng making money in the future, I will pay them back!" Wu Lijiang continued.
"Uncle, this is inappropriate. My classmates are in the same situation as me, and I can't open my mouth!" Wu Jianye still didn't let go.
If they just borrowed a few dozen yuan at the beginning, Wu Jianye would have given it to them, and now they want to borrow 500 yuan. This is really a big deal. There is probably no one in the whole village who can come up with 500 yuan in cash.
"What should we do?" Wu Lijiang rubbed his hands and looked embarrassed.
Wu Jianye looked at their situation and said nothing.
"Forget it, Jian Feng, why don't you go to the south? I heard that some people call this speculation now, and it's illegal. Why don't you go to work honestly?"
"Go to work? Okay, since Erpang can't get the money, it's useless to go there! Then I'll go to work!" Wu Jianfeng said with difficulty.
Wu Lijiang smiled and said to Wu Jianye: "Second Fatty, since you can't get the money, why not go and discuss with your Uncle Qian and let Jianfeng work in your factory? There will be an iron rice bowl.
It’s easy to find a wife, maybe I can even find a wife from the county town!”
If Wu Jianye still doesn't know what kind of tricks the father and son are playing now, Wu Jianye is really fooling around in vain. Borrowing money before was just a cover. If he wanted to ask for help on their behalf, he would go to work in the factory.
real!
If it was Wu Jianye in the past, he might have fallen into their trap, but now?
"Uncle, this matter is probably even more difficult to deal with. You also know how you treated Uncle Qian when he was in our village. I went to Uncle Qian's house several times and could hear him scolding you. You said
Now let me go and make peace with Jian Feng, I’m afraid this is even more hopeless!”
"Wu Jianye, what do you mean? You won't borrow the money. I asked you to go and tell Qian. If you don't go, do you think you are a member of the Wu family?" Wu Jianfeng saw that Wu Jianye was not getting enough money, and he immediately
He got angry.
Wu Jianye didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "It's really not that I didn't help with this matter. I don't need to tell everyone about the matter between the uncle and Uncle Qian when he was young. Even if I go to ask Uncle Qian now, will he agree?
?”
"Hey, who would have known that he would be dating the county deputy leader's girl..." Wu Lijiang also said regretfully.
"Oh, my son, why is your life so miserable? None of your brothers will help you!" The aunt who had been sitting next to her silently suddenly started to cry.
Then there was a lot of excitement in the yard. Wu Jianye sat there and watched them making trouble. He didn't say anything, but he was a little curious. This was originally a matter of Wu Lijiang's family. Why did the third uncle come here?
Soon the movement here alerted the surrounding neighbors, who came over to see what was going on.
Then the aunt grabbed the visitor and scolded Wu Jianye for being ungrateful. She had made a career for herself and didn't care about the life or death of her family members.
Many people also criticized Wu Jianye. Didn't they just ask him to beg someone? They were all their brothers, so they didn't help at all. Some who knew the original matter remained silent.
"Okay, why are you crying!" At this time, an old voice suddenly came.
"Second Grandpa, why are you here?" Wu Jianye stood up immediately after seeing the old man. Although Wu Jianye's grandparents died long ago, his Second Grandpa has always built in Wulijiang and Wulihu wanted to
When Wu Jianye's family wanted to take over the farmland, it was the second grandfather who stood up and said something fair.
The second grandfather is now the senior Wu family in the village. When he came, the aunt stopped howling. She looked directly at the second grandfather and said: "Second uncle, you can't ignore this matter. Seeing the situation is getting worse and worse."
It's getting bigger and bigger, and I still don't have a wife. We wanted to ask Erpang to borrow some money and let him go out to have a try. Erpang didn't lend it. Now we ask him to help Jianfeng find a job, but he won't help either.
Do you think he is still from the Wu family?"
"Okay, stop talking. I just heard what happened. You parents don't know who Jianfeng is. He went out to try his luck. With his character, he went to work in a factory. How can anyone want him?
"?" Second Grandpa sat next to Wu Jianye.
"Then we can't watch Jian Feng being a bachelor all the time!" the aunt cried. She was really anxious. Her son was already in his twenties, and children of his age in the village could still be bachelors.
Second Grandpa ignored her and said to Wu Jianye: "Why didn't you go to Second Grandpa's house when you came back?"
"I think I'll go there when everything is done here!" Wu Jianye said quickly. He may not care about Wu Lijiang's family, but he can't care about the second grandfather.
"Well, it stands to reason that Second Grandpa shouldn't talk too much, but you also know Jian Ye and Jian Feng's current situation. No matter what, you are all the Wu family, and you can't let outsiders laugh. Do you understand?"
"I know, I really don't have any money, but I can tell Uncle Qian. As for whether Uncle Qian can help, I'm not sure!" Wu Jianye had no choice but to say this.
"As long as you say this, you, the Lijiang family, have also heard it. Jianye helped me with this matter, why don't you thank Jianye quickly!" said the second grandfather.
