At this time, Xiao Yang did not give up on Pei Yan. He believed that if Boss Hong hadn't transferred the grocery store in the town, his affairs with Pei Yan would have been successful.
Xiao Yang thought about how to find an opportunity to contact Pei Yan. Pei Yan has not remarried yet, and Xiao Yang really wants to marry her. However, due to the grocery store's inventory deficit of more than 40,000 yuan, his relationship with Pei Yan and her father-in-law, Boss Hong, has been strained. Can this relationship be restored?
Xiao Yang repeatedly considered that as long as he returned the shortfall of 40,000 yuan to his family in a different way, everything would be easier. But how could Xiao Yang be willing to spit out all the money and return it to their family?
He finally figured out a way to go directly to Hongjiacun on a sunny day. But halfway through, the sunny turned cloudy, then cloudy turned cloudy again. He looked up at the sky and complained about the weather. It changes so fast. When he walked to the door of Boss Hong's house, he happened to meet Pei Yan sitting in the main room cutting pigweed.
Pei Yan lowered her head and ignored him. Xiao Yang felt excited and took the initiative to approach and said, Sister Pei Yan, let me tell you good news.
What good news? Pei Yan stopped what she was doing, looked up at him and asked.
Xiao Yang slightly bent down, leaned into her ear and said, I found an IOU worth 10,000 yuan. It was an IOU written by a customer when your husband was alive. Now that your husband is gone, no one is going to collect the debt. That customer doesn't Maybe take the initiative to pay back the money.
Pei Yan stood up and said, "Show me the IOU. Which customer is it from?" Xiao Yang said that the IOU was not brought, and the name of the debtor was written on it. I have forgotten the specific name, but I am responsible for collecting the debt from your family.
Pei Yan asked again, who is the debtor? You can't remember, are you so forgetful? Xiao Yang lowered his voice, "I only have you in my heart, I can't remember anything else."
Pei Yan pushed him, "Don't talk nonsense, please get the debt back to my father-in-law as soon as possible." Xiao Yang made another condition: I can ask for money from your family, but you must agree to my request.
any request? Pei Yan asked.
Anyway, your husband is gone. If you remarry, just marry me! Xiao Yang put his mouth close to her ear and spoke in a low voice, but Pei Yan heard it clearly. She thought to herself: It turns out you have other motives. Then he said, you first collect the debt and give it to my father-in-law before talking about other things.
Is your father-in-law at the pig farm? Xiao Yang amplified his voice.
Don't go to my father-in-law first. Get the debt back and then go to my father-in-law. Pei Yan said firmly.
Can't we find him now? I want to also mention your remarriage to me. Xiao Yang said, lowering his voice again.
You must not mention it. You should do as I said and get the debt back to my father-in-law. If you want to find my father-in-law now, unless you bring the IOU, give it to my father-in-law and let him collect the debt. Pei Yan said, then sat down and picked up the knife to cut the pigweed.
Xiao Yang thought to himself: I heard from Fa Fu that his wife was not very smart, but now that I have seen her more often, I think she is quite powerful.
At this moment, he reached out and patted Pei Yan's shoulder, as if caressing her, and said kindly, I will do as you said, help your family recover the debt, and then find your father-in-law. Talk about that.
Don't touch me. Pei Yan said, shrugging her shoulders as if she was electrocuted, and glared at him.
Xiao Yang said, I just like touching you, smiled obscenely at him, and walked out of the door. Pei Yan looked up again and saw that it was drizzling outside. If it was an ordinary acquaintance, Pei Yan would definitely lend Xiao Yang an umbrella, but now that this guy was so ambiguous to her, she was unwilling to appear so enthusiastic.
But Xiao Yang immediately turned to Pei Yan to borrow an umbrella. Pei Yan had no choice but to get up and go into the inner room to take out an umbrella for him and told him to remember to return it next time. Xiao Yang nodded, turned around and went out, opened his umbrella and left.
A few days later, it was a sunny day. Xiao Yang did not remember to return the umbrella, but took the 10,000 yuan with him and came to Hongjiacun. He did not look for Boss Hong first, but walked to Boss Hong's door and met him. Boss Hong, he said with a smile, Boss Hong, I have something to ask you.
what's up? Boss Hong replied coldly.
There is an important thing to say in the room. Xiao Yang behaved mysteriously.
Come in, come in! Boss Hong waved his hand and asked him to enter the room. He happened to meet Pei Yan coming out of the inner room. When Pei Yan saw him, she asked, "Where's that umbrella?" Xiao Yang said, alas, I forgot to bring it. I'm here to return that thing. Pei Yan knew that he was here to pay back the money, and felt happy for a while, so she said, forget it, that umbrella is an old umbrella and I don't want you to return it.
When Boss Hong heard that something was returned, he asked sensitively, "Xiao Yang, what are you here to return?"
Sit down and talk! Xiao Yang continued to act like a salesman, leaving Boss Hong worried. Pei Yan immediately handed Xiao Yang a chair to sit down and talk. Xiao Yang said to Boss Hong, I have something good to tell you.
What's good? Boss Hong asked impatiently. Xiao Yang did not answer Boss Hong directly. He only said to Pei Yan, "Sister Pei Yan, please stay out of the way."
Pei Yan was still reluctant, thinking: I know everything you say, why are you making it so mysterious? When she didn't leave immediately in the main room, Boss Hong said to Xiao Yang, "Come with me and go to the wing over there to talk."
Xiao Yang got up and followed Boss Hong through the patio to a side room on the left side of the main room, obviously to avoid Pei Yan, who was sitting in the main room still doing her job of cutting pigweed.
But Pei Yan didn't know that her husband Hong Fafu's soul, which was parasitic in her private parts, immediately left her body and followed her father-in-law and Xiao Yang.
At this moment, Hong Fafu also walked into the side room, and they didn't know it at all. Boss Hong also closed the open door of the wing, then sat back on the edge of a sleeping berth, and said to Xiao Yang who was sitting on the chair, "You can say anything you want now."
Xiao Yang still didn't speak immediately. He only took out a box of cigarettes, took one out and handed it to Boss Hong.
Boss Hong shook his hand and said I don’t smoke. Xiao Yang said you smoke one for fun. Boss Hong took the cigarette and Xiao Yang lit it for him. He also took out one, held it in his mouth, and took a deep breath.
Then, Xiao Yang said slowly, "Boss Hong, congratulations. I suddenly remembered something in the past few days. When your son became rich, a business partner asked him to borrow money and issued an IOU. I seemed I saw your son putting it under the quilt of the bed in his bedroom in the grocery store in town. I hurried over to look for it today. Although you transferred the grocery store to someone else, the bed has not been dismantled yet. I went in. After rummaging around, I found it.
Boss Hong asked him where the IOU was and how much the business partner owed. Xiao Yang said, don't worry, let me finish. The IOU is for 10,000 yuan. I have already taken it to the business partner and asked him to pay back the money.
With that said, Xiao Yang took out a large roll of banknotes from his body and handed it to Boss Hong, saying that I brought you money specially. Of course, this money is money from your grocery store.
Boss Hong was very happy to count the large amount of money. It was exactly 10,000 yuan, exactly. He vomited the cigarette without finishing it, and then praised Xiao Yang, "Your thinking is not bad. I turned out to be wrong about you."
Xiao Yang suddenly became arrogant. He said, "Of course, if I don't think well, even if I remember the IOU of 10,000 yuan, I won't care about it. It can be said that it has nothing to do with me." The reason why I care about it is because of my conscience. I think the last time you went to the grocery store to take inventory and found that you owed so much money, you probably lent the money to others when you were rich. Now that you can't find the IOU, they won't consciously pay back the money.
Xiao Yang was smoking as he talked, exhaling clouds of smoke from his nostrils. The smoke enveloped him, making him look very mature.
