Zhou Sheng understood his mother's good intentions, took the burden and put it down, "Mom, I won't leave. You two elders used to protect me, now it's my turn to protect you."
Li Fang and Zhou Quan looked at each other, their faces filled with astonishment that their son would actually say such a thing.
"Son, I'm glad you can say that, but those gangsters are not easy to deal with. If you can't get the money in two months, they will skin you alive." Li Fang was very afraid that Zhou Sheng would be injured, so she picked up the bag again and
Go and push Zhou Sheng out, "Leave quickly."
"Yes! Son, you go out and hide for a few days, and then come back when it's safe." Zhou Quan also urged to leave.
"I won't leave!" Zhou Sheng didn't move. He turned around and held his mother's hand firmly. His eyes were firm and he said: "Mom, Dad, it's my turn to take responsibility. Don't worry, I will pay back the money in two months."
, and give you a peaceful life." He pushed his mother down and said, "Don't worry, you two, I won't do anything you're not sure about." He already had a way to make money, not only to pay off the debt, but also to improve the lives of his two elders.
The second elder was stunned again. At first he thought his son was telling lies, but seeing that his son looked serious and didn't look like he was lying, could there be any solution?
"Son, where can you find money?" Zhou Quan asked worriedly.
Zhou Sheng smiled deeply, and while talking about his thoughts, he gave his father medicine to make the two elders feel at ease.
He remembered that in his previous life, the land was short of water due to continued abnormally dry weather, which resulted in a drought two months later. The crops were affected and could not grow normally, and even the most drought-tolerant sweet potatoes were sunk to death.
Seeing that the harvest was hopeless, many villagers had no choice but to eat stored grain. Those who did not have enough grain went to other villages to buy it at high prices. Villagers with poor families suffered from famine, and at one time people starved to death.
There are still two months left before the drought. During these two months, he will buy a large amount of sweet potatoes, because sweet potatoes are the cheapest and are also very durable.
Moreover, the most common crop in the village is sweet potatoes, which are grown in every household. Even wealthy villagers use sweet potatoes to feed pigs. It will be very cheap for him to buy sweet potatoes now, and when there is a famine, he will sell them at the cheapest price.
You can make money even when you go out!
It's just that he doesn't have a penny now and needs to borrow money.
After much deliberation, I decided to borrow money from Xu Rou.
Xu Rou and he grew up together since childhood. The two are childhood sweethearts. Although she is the daughter of the village chief and went to college, it does not affect their friendship.
When Xu Rou was a child, he was chased by a dog. He chased after the dog and beat the dog to death. He saved Xu Rou and was considered her savior.
At the beginning, the biggest reason why he bought a mobile phone was to communicate with Xu Rou. After all, Xu Rou had always been the girl of his dreams.
In his previous life, he did not dare to confess to Xu Rou because of his inferiority complex, so he could only be friends with her and watch her marry someone else.
It would have been fine if she had married well, but that man was violent, and in the end she accidentally killed someone and was imprisoned. She died of illness within a few years.
He sighed when he thought of what happened to her.
In this life, he not only wants to change his own destiny, but also Xu Rou's.
So, he called Xu Rou and asked her to go to Sunset Mountain to watch the sunset tomorrow...
Sunset Mountain.
Climbing up the winding path, Zhou Sheng saw many small daisies growing on both sides of the road, so he picked some and woven them into garlands, thinking of giving them to Xu Rou later to make her happy.
After waiting for a while, Xu Rou came and shouted from afar: "Brother Sheng..."
Zhou Sheng looked towards the voice and saw a slender figure running towards him. When the familiar yet unfamiliar face came into his eyes, his eyes turned red unconsciously.
very nice!
I can still see her!
He looked a little obsessed, because Xu Rou was very beautiful, with a standard oval face, delicate facial features, thin eyebrows, big eyes, a small and exquisite nose, and a cherry-like mouth... In short, she gave people a very comfortable feeling. After taking a look,
I couldn't help but take a few more glances.
"Brother Sheng, you've been staring at me, is it because I'm too beautiful and you fall in love with me?" Xu Rou walked up to her and took Zhou Sheng's arm affectionately and shook her.
The two of them have a good relationship, and such behavior was common in the past.
Zhou Sheng was awakened by these words. He looked at Xu Rou with some fear, "Hu...what are you talking about?" He pulled out his arm, took a few steps back, and explained, "It's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, and I don't recognize you.
"
After living another life, he is still nervous when facing the lover of his dreams.
"I know, I'm just teasing you." Xu Roujiao laughed. When she saw the wreath in Zhou Sheng's hand, she asked doubtfully: "Did you give it to me?"
Zhou Sheng nodded and handed the garland to Xu Rou.
"I like it." Xu Rou took it and put it on her head with satisfaction.
Zhou Sheng smiled and his nervousness was relieved.
Next, the two chatted about their daily lives and regained the feeling of being childhood playmates.
At sunset, the gorgeous rays of light shine on the mountains, and the entire mountains seem to be shrouded in layers of Buddha's light, shining, spectacular and charming.
The twilight at dusk was beautiful and soft. Xu Rou stretched out her hands, and the setting sun passed through her fingers. "It's so beautiful!"
"It's beautiful." Although Zhou Sheng looked ahead, he kept paying attention to Xu Rou out of the corner of his eye.
The scenery is beautiful, and so are the people.
The two of them didn't talk, and watched the sunset quietly, and didn't go down the mountain until dark.
When leaving, Zhou Sheng mustered up the courage to borrow money and promised to pay it back in two months, and then looked at Xu Rou calmly.
She has a lively personality, is innocent and cute, and her only shortcoming is that she sometimes lacks the right strings to do things and is quite nervous. But there is one thing worth his attention. She values love, so he asked her to borrow money.
After Xu Rou was slightly stunned, she took out 500 yuan from her bag without hesitation and stuffed it into Zhou Sheng's hand, "Fortunately, my dad just gave me living expenses today, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to get it out."
Seeing that there were five hundred yuan, Zhou Sheng smiled and said, "Thank you!" Sure enough, he borrowed the right money.
"Why are you thanking me? The money is not much. Besides, we are childhood sweethearts. You are still my savior. I am quite happy to be able to help you." Xu Rou smiled brightly.
Zhou Sheng nodded without saying anything, accepting the sentiment.
Five hundred yuan is enough for him to buy sweet potatoes!
He was worried that Xu Rou would go home alone, so he personally sent her home. When he saw her entering the house, he left with peace of mind...
Early the next morning, Zhou Sheng went to the vegetable market in the village.
Because he had a bad reputation before, the villagers looked down upon him when they saw him.
When Uncle Luo saw Zhou Sheng selecting sweet potatoes in front of his stall, he immediately became unhappy and said, "If you don't buy it, don't touch it! You can't afford to pay for it if it gets damaged."
This was uncomfortable to hear, so Zhou Sheng shot back, "Who said I can't afford it?"
"Haha!" Uncle Luo sneered and started mocking, "Everyone knows that your family is in debt and can't even lift the pot. How can you afford to buy sweet potatoes?"
Zhou Sheng ignored Uncle Luo this time, his expression was calm.
This village is neither big nor small, and the seven aunts and eight aunts love to chat. The situation in their family has long been spread, so Uncle Luo looks down on him.
