"My daughter is smart but has no social experience. You must have lied to her. You have to make up for the shortfall in her salary." Tian Huizhen's father said confidently.
Tian Huizhen, who was sitting aside, was not allowed to speak to Zhou Zichen, so Tian Huizhen stood up first: "Dad, what do you mean, you are gambling and in debt at home, and now you know that you are coming to ask me for money?"
"Huizhen, what's going on?" Zhou Zichen also knew that he would definitely not understand anything from Tian Huizhen's father. His talk was all about money.
Tian Huizhen angrily introduced her parents briefly with tears in her eyes, and then said: "My father was gambling at home and owed a lot of debt. He had no choice but to come to me for money."
"I didn't go back during the summer vacation. I didn't go back for a year, and they got into this mess. They even divorced my mother."
Tian Huizhen's father's name is Tian Zhiyong, and her mother's name is Mu Chunhua. When she first met Tian Huizhen, she heard her say that the situation at home was very bad. At that time, Zhou Zichen thought that Tian Zhiyong was an honest farmer, but he didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, he would become an honest farmer.
Got addicted to gambling.
When Tian Zhiyong heard this, he immediately became unhappy: "What do you mean I divorce your mother? She insists on divorcing me."
When Mu Chunhua, who had been silent all this time, heard this, he cried with tears in his eyes: "What can I do if I don't divorce you, or get stabbed in the spine with you?"
Tian Zhiyong turned around and shouted: "It's not just for my family, okay?"
"Well, you are going to do business at the beginning of the year. I advise you not to do it. You have never done business at all. If you do, you will lose money. You don't listen. You borrow tens of thousands to do business with others and end up losing money.
The cents are gone, and there is only a pile of useless junk." Mu Chunhua said while wiping tears.
Tian Huizhen walked up to Mu Chunhua, wiped Mu Chunhua's tears and said, "Mom, please stop crying."
"Cry, let her cry. If she hadn't said it in the first place, I might have made a profit." Tian Zhiyong said impatiently.
Mu Chunhua's tears that were just about to stop flowed out again: "It's okay if you do business. Even if you lose money, I won't tell you anything. We can pay back the money you owe slowly, so why do you still go gambling?"
"
"Didn't you make money at the beginning? Didn't you see what Tian Zhihua and the others made?" Tian Zhiyong said confidently.
Zhou Zichen heard some clues. It was probably that Tian Zhiyong lost money in business and owed foreign debts. He saw others making money by gambling, so he also tried his luck. At first, he made some money, but later he probably lost all of it.
Seeing Tian Zhiyong being so unreasonable, Tian Huizhen also shouted: "Dad, stop talking, you still don't admit that you are wrong."
Tian Zhiyong patted the armrest of the sofa: "What did I do wrong? Aren't everything I do just for this family?"
Mu Chunhua said with a tearful voice: "You and I are not from the same family. We are divorced. Huizhen has grown up now. I will take care of Xiaoliang by myself. You don't need to worry about it. Don't bother us either."
Xiaoliang is Tian Huizhen's younger brother, named Tian Xiaoliang. He is still in high school and will take the college entrance examination next summer. Zhou Zichen has also heard Tian Huizhen talk about it.
"They are also my children. I don't want to see you yet. I look at my own son and what happened to my own daughter?" Tian Zhiyong said.
Mu Chunhua sneered: "You still have the nerve to say that your family's house was sold to pay off your debt, and your son will take the college entrance examination next year, and you don't care. You know how to gamble all day long, and you still have the nerve to say that you are their father?"
"
Zhou Zichen understood now that Tian Zhiyong wanted to do business and lost money, and then tried to make money by gambling, which increased the family's debt. Mu Chunhua's repeated attempts to dissuade him were in vain. In the end, the family's house
They were all sold to pay off debts.
Mu Chunhua was forced to have no choice but to divorce. Naturally, Tian Xiaoliang followed Mu Chunhua. Tian Zhiyong became a loner. It could almost be said that he was deserted by everyone. He didn't know why he suddenly wanted to come to Tian Huizhen to ask for money.
Tian Zhiyong still wanted to speak, but Zhou Zichen shouted softly: "Uncle Tian, that's enough!"
No matter what, Tian Zhiyong is Tian Huizhen's father. Zhou Zichen cannot call him by his first name. The most basic respect must be given to him. Even if it is not for his face, he must call him for Tian Huizhen's face.
"Uncle Tian".
Seeing that Zhou Zichen seemed a little angry, Tian Zhiyong shut up and said nothing.
Zhou Zichen looked at Tian Huizhen: "Huizhen, what do you think about this matter?"
This matter is a family matter of the Tian family. Zhou Zichen cannot make the decision alone and just handle the matter. He still has to listen to the opinions of the Tian family. Now the only person in the Tian family who has the ability to give opinions is Tian Huizhen.
Tian Zhiyong is a nuisance now, so there is no need to consider her; Mu Chunhua is a peasant woman, so she can't make too many decisions.
Tian Huizhen looked down at her toes: "I gave all my savings to my father, more than 20,000 yuan, and I will pay back the rest later."
Zhou Zichen looked at Tian Zhiyong: "Uncle Tian, what about you?"
Tian Zhiyong was clean and sincere: "I have found their rules. After I go back, I will gamble twice more and win back all the money I lost, and then I will quit gambling."
Zhou Zichen ignored Tian Zhiyong, and Tian Zhiyong turned to Mu Chunhua: "Auntie, everything you have counts?"
Mu Chunhua wiped her tears and said, "When I go back, I will just take Xiaoliang with me. I don't want to care about other things and I can't care about them."
Tian Zhiyong was not happy when he heard this: "Xiao Liang is my son, he must follow me."
Zhou Zichen frowned proudly: "Uncle Tian, are you asking your children to learn gambling from you?"
Tian Zhiyong glared and said, "What did you say, that I could harm my son? Even if I teach him to gamble, it is for his own good."
Zhou Zichen listened to Tian Zhiyong's words becoming more and more outrageous, and shouted: "You say such things, are you worthy of being a father? If it weren't for the fact that you are Huizhen's father, I would throw you out right now. Do you believe it?"
"
Tian Zhiyong also noticed that Zhou Zichen and Tian Huizhen had a good relationship and were friends of his daughter. Tian Zhiyong was no longer afraid: "You are a young boy, how do you talk to your elders? Do you believe I can help you?"
Did your parents teach you a lesson?"
Tian Zhiyong has been doing farm work all year round, and he still has a lot of strength. Most people really can't compare with him.
"Dad, what are you talking about? I just want to help solve the problem." Tian Huizhen saw that Tian Zhiyong was going too far, and she was already very dissatisfied with Tian Zhiyong, so she also said the same.
Tian Zhiyong stood up immediately: "My daughter is not in the middle school. She has not been with others for two days. She has stopped reading. Now her arms are still turned outward. Give me money and I am too lazy to care about you. Let Xiaoliang follow me later.
.”
Tian Huizhen's whole body trembled at Tian Zhiyong's words. She was confused and angry.
Zhou Zichen's face turned cold: "If you want to leave, just leave. No one will follow you, and you don't want any money."
Upon hearing what Zhou Zichen said, Tian Zhiyong became furious: "You brat, our family affairs are none of your business? What do you want to do here? Go away and take out the money you owe my daughter.
, otherwise I will sue you."
"Go try it!"
Tian Zhiyong really didn't dare to go. Tian Huizhen was already so old, so it wouldn't make sense for him to sue Zhou Zichen.
"You...you...I will teach you a lesson for your parents today!" Tian Zhiyong said and really took action, slapping Zhou Zichen in the face.
Although Tian Zhiyong has a lot of strength, he is still far behind Zhou Zichen.
Zhou Zichen raised his hand and grabbed Tian Zhiyong's wrist: "I respect you as Huizhen's father. You'd better save some face for yourself."
Zhou Zichen said and shook off Tian Zhiyong's hand.
Tian Zhiyong never expected Zhou Zichen to be so strong. Once he grabbed him, he didn't move at all no matter how hard he struggled.
Tian Zhiyong felt that he had lost face. Although there were not many people here, most of them were his relatives, but the more he was in front of his relatives, the more embarrassed he felt. He picked up the cup on the table and threw it at Zhou Zichen:
"I'll let you……"
"Snapped……"
Zhou Zichen punched him and hit the porcelain cup in Tian Zhiyong's hand. The pieces of porcelain suddenly fell to the ground. Tian Zhiyong's hand was also cut several times, but Zhou Zichen was fine.
Tian Huizhen saw her father attacking again and again. If Zhou Zichen hadn't reacted quickly, he might have been beaten like this: "Dad, go away, go back, don't stay here, I will transfer it to you if I have money in the future.
Don't bother my mother and Xiaoliang, they will be here from now on, I will take care of them, you don't need to worry about them."
"Give me ten thousand a month, I want one hundred thousand!" Tian Zhiyong made his request.
Seeing that Tian Zhiyong still had the nerve to make demands, Zhou Zichen grabbed Tian Zhiyong and dragged him out: "Tian Zhiyong, I have already given you face. Huizhen has given you all the belongings. What else do you have?
satisfied."
Tian Zhiyong struggled desperately, but he couldn't break free from Zhou Zichen's hand.
Zhou Zichen dragged Tian Zhiyong out of the gate, then crossed the lawn and threw him outside the iron gate.
Just as Tian Zhiyong was about to fight back, Zhou Zichen punched the big iron gate.
"Clang..."
The iron gate was deeply dented by Zhou Zichen's punch: "Tian Zhiyong, you can try to move forward. I have given in again and again, so don't be shameless."
Tian Zhiyong didn't dare to move anymore, and he didn't dare to challenge Zhou Zichen anymore. If that punch hit him, he would definitely break his bones.
Tian Huizhen chased her out at this time and was relieved when she saw that the two people did not fight.
When Tian Zhiyong saw Tian Huizhen coming out, his eyes moved and he knelt down: "Daughter, there is nothing dad can do. You have to forgive dad."
In fact, both Zhou Zichen and Tian Huizhen knew that Tian Zhiyong was acting and wanted to win Tian Huizhen's sympathy.
Tian Huizhen knew it clearly, but she still had no choice. After all, this was her father: "Dad, how much money do you still owe?"
"Ten...one hundred and thirty thousand." Tian Zhiyong said a number.
"I will give you another 120,000 yuan in the next two years, and I will give you 5,000 yuan every month. Plus the money I gave you today, it will be enough for you to pay off your debt. You can go back! Don't come see mom, I have time.
I will go back to see you." Tian Huizhen shed tears as she spoke.
Zhou Zichen looked at Tian Huizhen's sad look. Although Tian Zhiyong was not good, he was his father.
Zhou Zichen walked in front of Tian Zhiyong, and Tian Zhiyong quickly took two steps back, fearing that Zhou Zichen would hit him.
"Give me your account number and I will transfer 130,000 yuan to you. If you still have some conscience, just use the money to pay off the debt. Huizhen will not give you the 5,000 yuan per month. If you pay back the money, you
It’s no problem to support yourself.”
Tian Zhiyong didn't care at all about what Zhou Zichen said. He only cared that Zhou Zichen wanted to transfer money to him. He quickly took out a bank card from his bag and handed it to Zhou Zichen.
Zhou Zichen took the card, looked at the card number, and transferred 130,000 to Tian Zhiyong.
Seeing that the transfer was successful, Tian Zhiyong said to Tian Huizhen: "Daughter, dad will leave first."
Tian Huizhen didn't say anything. Tian Zhiyong's face that he only recognized money and not his relatives made Tian Huizhen's heart feel as sad as if it had been cut into pieces by a thousand knives.
Watching Tian Zhiyong leave, Zhou Zichen took Tian Huizhen's hand: "Don't be sad, maybe he will get better one day."
