"He, he is using a fake IOU to cheat me?" Xia Xinyu asked in disbelief.
She felt panic.
In this regard, she was even willing to believe that her family really owed Niu Qiong money.
Otherwise, if your best friend dies and you only have one daughter left, you still want to bully her...
How bad of a friend does Dad have?
How angry and self-blaming the father in heaven must have been when he saw this scene.
"I want you to never know anything like this."
Chen Yuan said these sentimental words like in a movie, but soon he was pulled back to reality: "But I feel relieved only after letting you know that those people are bad guys."
"Should I...should I know?" Xia Xinyu was a little panicked. She always felt that she would touch upon some unacceptable truth.
"He really doesn't do this kind of thing for money."
"Then..." Xia Xinyu slowly pointed her finger at herself, "He...his target is me?"
"If he dared to do that, I would have sent him to the orange."
"..." Xia Xinyu's face turned red, and she stammered, "Will it make you uncomfortable if I know the reason?"
When he really listened to the voice of his son, Chen Yuan felt a little disgusted by Uncle Niu.
Bull? Bull Demon Rewards!
"It will make you uncomfortable, but I have aroused your curiosity now. It's like reading a novel that has been interrupted by a stupid author. You must be feeling very itchy..."
"It's a bit irritating indeed." Xia Xinyu raised her head and adjusted her expression, "But I'll listen to you and won't ask any more questions. Just tell me what kind of emotion should I have towards Niu Qiong, anger, disgust, aversion, or regret?"
Chen Yuan shook his head and said, "He will never appear in your sight again. He will blame himself forever. Every night when he thinks about what he did, he will wake up and slap himself in the face."
"Because he bullied his best friend's daughter?"
"Yes. But you don't have to hate him." Chen Yuan looked at Xia Xinyu, who was smart and simple at the same time, and said, "Don't worry about the money anymore, and don't think about what kind of suffering your father went through when you didn't know about it. Then, naturally accept everything that happens next."
"..."
Xia Xinyu understood some of what Chen Yuan said.
Some of them I didn't understand.
But she knew that Chen Yuan wanted to protect something like a "pure land" to prevent the dirty thoughts of some adults from leaving her with bad memories.
Therefore, she tried to persuade herself that she should do as Chen Yuan had told her and accept whatever happened naturally...
……
"Brother Niu Qiong, you are here."
When Xia Fang saw Niu Qiong driving the car back, she took the initiative to step forward to greet him.
"Fangfang..." When Niu Qiong saw Xia Fang, he immediately avoided her gaze.
To be precise, he felt ashamed whenever he saw anyone in this family.
However, for Xia Fang, this feeling is particularly strong.
Judging from her expression, the boy didn't seem to tell his family about that incident.
He generously preserved his own dignity as a human being.
I don’t even want this old face anymore, alas!
"Let's go to town to eat this afternoon. I've already made reservations..."
Before he finished speaking, Niu Qiong waved his hands and explained with a smile: "There is really no way. I am really sorry. The shower glass at the hotel exploded today and injured a customer. I have to go back to deal with it." Why are you laughing when you injured a customer...
The aunt was stunned for a moment, then said regretfully: "Since this is the case, Brother Niu Qiong, you should go back quickly. Business is more important."
"Well, I'll be right back." Niu Qiong smiled and nodded, then glanced at Chen Yuan, who was sitting in the main room looking at his phone. He was scared just by being there. He said quickly, "I didn't think straight this morning and forgot to burn incense with Lao Xia and Xiao Xu. I'll go burn some incense!"
"okay."
At this time, the main room had been cleaned, leaving only the portrait and the incense burner. However, since he was the only one there, his aunt didn't think of decorating it any further.
Niu Qiong walked to the incense burner, lit three incense sticks, bowed three times, and inserted the incense into the burner.
Just when Xia Fang was about to go over to express her gratitude, he suddenly knelt down.
Then he kowtowed on the cold tile floor.
Three in a row, and there was even a sound.
"Sorry, sorry, let's go!"
After bowing, he waved goodbye, which was quite abrupt.
In fact, it was quite sudden when I kowtowed these three times just now.
My uncle and aunt hadn't reacted yet. They looked at each other, asking questions frantically.
"This Niu Qiong... is really nice."
"I knew he had a good relationship with my brother, but I didn't expect... to the point of kowtowing."
"And this time they gave a gift of two thousand. According to the customs in Shaoxiang, they don't give such a large amount."
"Indeed, he is a good man..."
Normally, most people would be happy if someone praises them.
But Niu Qiong felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife and was extremely uncomfortable.
The better they think of themselves, the worse they feel.
He was sorry for Lao Xia. We were such good friends, we grew up together, and I even took him to work in Xingsha. Logically, this should be a lifelong friendship, but I...
Is my boy worthy of Xinyu?
I'm dreaming about this!
While struggling, Xia Xinyu walked out of the house and accepted the gift money in the name of sending it off.
Chen Yuan should have told her.
But he didn't know how much he had told.
"Xinyu, I'm so sorry." Niu Qiong touched his head and said awkwardly, "Lao Xia had already transferred the money to my wife, and I didn't know. Then after she came back today, she told me that she had already given the money to her brother... It's my fault, my wife's fault. Don't take it to heart."
In front of Xia Xinyu, Niu Qiong tore the IOU into pieces.
It was like flying snow, falling to the ground.
Standing there in a daze, Xia Xinyu spent the whole morning preparing herself mentally, saying that she would definitely pay it back, and she would pay it back when she went to college. But at this moment, after the burden was completely gone, she realized that it was better not to have some of the heavy things pressing on her.
"Take this."
He took out a large white bag from his inner pocket and handed it to Xia Xinyu. Then, Niu Qiong ran to the car as if he had seen a zombie, stepped on the accelerator and drove away...
Looking at this huge white envelope, Xia Xinyu finally understood what Chen Yuan meant.
Stay calm no matter what happens.
Even if it's this kind of 'ill-gotten gains'.
So many...it must be about 20,000.
"Is this blackmail?"
Seeing Chen Yuan coming over, Xia Xinyu hurriedly trotted up to him, lowered her voice, and asked extremely nervously.
"It's a gift." Chen Yuan answered quickly.
It is very important to watch some small videos about legal knowledge... no, small videos are still very important.
Lao Niu was arrested because of his ignorance of the law.
"You threatened him, right?" Xia Xinyu asked again.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't talk nonsense." Chen Yuan quickly denied it, trying to clear himself.
Actually, it's not really a threat.
On the contrary, he gave Niu Qiong a chance to live.
This is also his way of salvation.
As for the 20,000, plus the previous 2,000, they are just pure gold coins.
My favorite thing to do, Chen Yuan, is to give away people's gold coins.
"Since you say so...then take it."
Although Xia Xinyu said this, her repeated deep breathing betrayed her nervousness.
Twenty-two thousand yuan is much more than the gifts given by all the villagers combined.
When you get this kind of money, you will definitely feel uneasy, as if it is "pie in the sky".
Silly boy, how can you be uneasy when pie falls from the sky?
Who doesn’t like pie in the sky?
Holy shit, pie? Got it!
"He has let your father down. This money is compensation for his guilt." Patting her shoulder, Chen Yuan comforted her, "It's just like the merit of releasing animals. Only those with evil intentions would do it. But you are upright."
"I see...you're right."
After Chen Yuan made this analogy, Xia Xinyu understood.
No wonder he often gets 50 points for his Chinese composition, this metaphor is so clever.
He will only be afraid if you don't charge him money.
"So what are you going to do with this money?" Chen Yuan asked.
Because of financial difficulties, Xia Xinyu had previously set a living allowance of five hundred yuan per month for herself.
Now that I have money, it shouldn't be so miserable.
Without thinking, Xia Xinyu answered directly: "Of course I save it and take it out when I need money in the future..."
"As living expenses, do you really only use 500 a month?" Chen Yuan was really confused. Why should I save it? Moreover, if I save it all, you will only live on these 500 yuan a month?
