Chapter 187: [Pay off the debt! ]

Views:

Saturday.

County *** family building.

After working in the countryside for a few days, Dong Xuebin was exhausted. When he returned to the county last night, he fell asleep. Ring, ring, ring, ring. The ringing of his cell phone came to his ears. Dong Xuebin lifted up the soft quilt and exposed his head. , squinting sleepily at the watch, it was 8:15 in the morning, so he yawned and sat up from his bed, picked up the phone and answered: "Mom, I have a day off today, can't you make it?"

Luan Xiaoping said anxiously: "Why didn't you tell mom about such a big thing!"

Dong Xuebin said, "...what's the matter?"

"You were almost beaten by a gang of gangsters when you were handling the case. Were you injured?"

"Hey, this is what we call it. He's not hurt. It's been solved over there. The case has been handed over to the county bureau's serious crime team. When the people of Dawang Village heard that Shan Dalei and Shan Dingbing were arrested, many people in Dawang Village were shocked. The people who didn't dare to report the crime reported it again, and the evidence was complete. Those two things probably haven't been thought of in recent years. Mom, just rest assured, just a few of them can't hurt me. "

"Everyone says you beat more than a dozen people by yourself? Is that true?"

"Whoever said that, it was just six or seven beatings."

She knew her son's fighting ability all too well. Luan Xiaoping wondered: "When did you become so good at fighting?"

"Ahem, um, I practiced fighting with the National Security Party School, so I have no problem dealing with these people."

Luan Xiaoping was hesitant, but after practicing fighting for a week, the results came out? This is too fast!

After hanging up the phone, Dong Xuebin got dressed, brushed his teeth and washed his face. Finally, he wanted to boil two eggs for breakfast, but found that there was nothing in the refrigerator, so he had to make a bag of instant coffee to make do with it. There was sugar in it, just to satisfy his hunger. . Dong Xuebin has become accustomed to Qu Yunxuan's care in the past six months, and he has become much lazy. In addition, sometimes he is too tired to go home from work. Dong Xuebin is not in the mood to cook by himself, let alone clean the house. Look, at home What is it like now? It’s such a mess.

Ding dong, ding dong, the doorbell rang.

Dong Xuebin walked over and opened the door, "Hey, Director Qin, please come in quickly."

Deputy Director Qin Yong walked sideways into the room with a smile, "I came uninvited, haha, I didn't disturb your rest, right?"

"No, please sit down and I'll pour you a cup of tea." When he was getting the tea can, he realized that the tea leaves were gone. Dong Xuebin couldn't help but shook the tea can and glanced at Qin Yong with a wry smile, "Director Qin, can you use boiled water? "

Qin Yong didn't let Dong Xuebin pour the water, grabbed the thermos and said: "Anything is fine, I will do it myself."

Dong Xuebin walked over and cleaned up the torn coffee bags, orange peels and other garbage on the coffee table. "I made you laugh. The house is a bit messy."

Qin Yong smiled and said: "You are living like this. Brother Dong, don't you want to hire a nanny?"

Dong Xuebin waved his hand and said, "Let's make do with it first. If it doesn't work, we'll talk about it later."

After chatting for a while, Qin Yong finally mentioned the matter, "That's right, Director Liang's mother fell ill last night and is now hospitalized at the County People's Hospital."

Dong Xuebin was stunned, "What disease?"

Qin Yong said: "I went to see him at night. It was cerebral thrombosis. I just rescued her. However, the old lady is seventy or eighty years old after all. The follow-up is still not optimistic." After talking about the condition of Director Liang's mother for a while, Qin Yong got up and said, " I’m working overtime today and it’s time for me to go back to the county bureau.”

Dong Xuebin understood that Qin Yong came here specifically to tell him that the leader's mother was in hospital. It would be unreasonable for Dong Xuebin not to visit the doctor, so as soon as Qin Yong left, Dong Xuebin took his bag and went downstairs to buy some fruits and nutrients. I took a taxi and went to the County People’s Hospital.

This is the best hospital in Yantai County, but from the outside, it is very unsatisfactory. Not to mention compared with the top three hospitals in Beijing, even the community outpatient department not far from Dong Xuebin's home looks better than this one. It's better. The medical environment at the grassroots level is indeed incomparable with that in first-tier cities.

Shinai inpatient department.

Liang's mother lived in a single ward, and Liang Chengpeng and his wife were also there.

As soon as he entered, Dong Xuebin said: "Director Liang, eldest sister, how is the old man?" According to his age, Dong Xuebin should be called Uncle Liang Chengpeng, but in terms of positions, the gap between the two is not too big, so Let's just call Liang Chengpeng's lover "eldest sister".

Liang Chengpeng might not have slept all night, and the circles under his eyes were a little dark, "The old lady is fine for the time being, thank you."

Director Liang's wife got up and moved a chair from the side to Dong Xuebin.

During the chat, I learned that although the hospital said that Director Liang’s mother was not in danger, the elderly woman always suffered from headaches, dizziness, and sometimes palpitations. Even the medicine for cerebral thrombosis had little effect. The doctor’s advice was to take a good rest for a while, or to go to hospital. Find an authoritative hospital in Beijing.

Dong Xuebin suggested: "Why don't you take the old man to Beijing to check it out?"

Director Liang's wife sighed and said, "I think so too, but I'm afraid the old lady won't be able to bear it if she does it again and again."

Liang Chengpeng said tiredly: "Let's take treatment for a few days and check the situation. If it doesn't get better, then go to the capital."

It was not appropriate to stay on this kind of visit. Soon, Dong Xuebin said goodbye and left. He went downstairs from the west door. When he went down, he happened to be in the emergency ward. There were rows of beds next to each other and many instruments were ticking. After a casual glance, Dong Xuebin was about to step out, but suddenly he was startled, and quickly looked at the temporary hospital bed in the emergency room. He actually saw the beautiful mother who met on the commercial street on a bed in the corner. Female, I remember my mother’s name is Yu Meixia, and my daughter’s name seems to be Yu Qianqian.

Why did they come to the hospital? sick

Dong Xuebin hesitated and walked slowly into the ward.

Lying on the bed was Yu Meixia, with a pale face and weak coughs from time to time. She has been working in a small supermarket these two days, moving things, cashing out, and cleaning. She is doing most of the work in the small supermarket. Maybe she is too tired, and she hasn't eaten much since her husband died. After a serious meal, Yu Meixia fainted in the corridor as soon as she returned to the hotel last night.

Lying on her mother's lap, Yu Xixi was crying.

Yu Meixia put an IV in her right hand and touched her daughter's head with her left hand, "Stop crying, cough, cough, cough, mom is fine, it's fine."

At this time, the nurse who was changing the dressing came up, looked at the mother and daughter's beautiful faces with some jealousy, hung the two bags of medicine on the infusion pole, "There are two more bottles of medicine, go and pay. "

Yu Meixia hurriedly said without thinking, "I won't give you any more infusions. I'm already fine."

The nurse frowned and said, "You have a viral cold and a high fever. How can you get better without infusion?"

Yu Meixia said stubbornly: "Didn't you have an infusion at night? I really don't want to take any more injections. Come on, Sissy, help your mother out of bed, and we'll be discharged from the hospital."

Yu Qianqian cried even louder, clutching her mother's clothes tightly, "Mom, please listen to the doctor, wuwu..."

Yu Meixia sighed, "We have spent several hundred, and we have no money."

"We have it. Don't you still have three thousand in your arms? Oh, mother, please give me an infusion!"

Yu Meixia hugged her daughter, her eyes were red, "Silly boy, that's money for your schooling. Don't touch it. Mom is really fine, cough, cough, cough."

Yu Qianqian cried: "I won't go to school anymore. I want you to get well soon. Wow, I won't go to school anymore."

Dong Xuebin's steps were steady, and he felt a little sour in his heart. Mother's love is really great. When his father passed away, his mother was not like Yu Meixia. She gave herself the most nutritious vegetables every time she ate, while her mother was hungry. After a full meal, sometimes I don't even want to eat. The money I saved is not only to pay off debts, but also to buy some delicious food for myself. Alas, thinking about those years now makes my heart ache.

Dong Xuebin was once again moved by the mother and daughter. He walked up and said, "How can you not take care of someone who is sick?"

Yu Meixia was stunned, "...Dong, Director Dong, why are you here?"

Yu Qianqian also wiped away tears and timidly called Director Dong.

Dong Xuebin took out his wallet, gave Yu Qianqian a thousand yuan, touched her head and said, "Pay your mother the money for the infusion. If it's not enough, don't ask me for it."

Yu Meixia hurriedly said: "Director Dong, why is this happening? Qianqian, please return the money to Director Dong quickly."

Yu Qianxi didn't say anything, gritted her teeth, and trotted along to pay the bill the nurse gave her.

Dong Xuebin looked at Yu Meixia, "You are just worrying your children. You can't even take care of yourself. How can Sissi go to school steadily?"

Yu Meixia's eyes became filled with mist, and she shed tears, "Thank you."

Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "Sister, you are so many years older than me, so I won't be yours. It sounds awkward, okay?" As soon as he leaned down, Dong Xuebin reached out to help her lie down, "You are a patient now. Lie down and rest quickly. Viral colds come and go quickly. Just take care of yourself and you'll be fine. You're still holding on to yourself when you're sick. Why did you tell me to call you when I left? ”

Yu Meixia sniffed, "I'm afraid it will cause trouble to you." In fact, she didn't dare to fight. Dong Xuebin's official was too big in her opinion.

Dong Xuebin sighed, "My father died of illness a few years ago. At that time, my mother and I were in the same situation as you and Xixi. The family had no backbone and was still in debt. But what does the old saying say? Days have to go by, don’t worry, everything will pass.”

Only then did Yu Meixia understand why Director Dong helped the two of them over and over again, "You are such a good person."

Dong Xuebin chuckled, "I don't dare to take these two words seriously."

Not long after, Yu Qianqian came back with the list, and the nurse changed Yu Meixia's dressing.

Dong Xuebin looked at his watch, "If you want to eat something for lunch, I will buy it for you and add more nutrition."

Yu Meixia was flattered and waved her hands quickly, "No, no, no, let... let Sissy go."

Dong Xuebin looked at Yu Qianqian and said, "You are not willing to spend money if I let you go. Tell your brother what you want to eat."

Yu Qianqian looked at her mother and then said cautiously: "I want my mother to drink chicken soup. I heard that it is good for the body. I, I can just eat steamed buns."

Dong Xuebin touched her little head with emotion, "What a good child. Okay, you can stay with your mother, and my brother will go buy groceries."

Yu Meixia said gratefully: "Director Dong, I'm really sorry to trouble you."

Dong Xuebin waved his hand nonchalantly, and after asking the nurse about Yu Meixia's condition, he went out to a nearby restaurant. Chicken Soup does not have this dish, but Dong Xuebin paid a little more, so the boss ordered the chef to make it. After the chicken soup was simmered, Dong Xuebin also had a simple meal here and ordered a few more dishes and rice. , he packed the food and returned to the hospital, giving the food to Yu Meixia and her daughter.

Yu Qianqian swallowed, as if she hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and she immediately devoured it.

Seeing this, Yu Meixia's eyes turned red and she felt that she was really sorry for her daughter. She had not even given her a full meal for half a year.

Dong Xuebin served her a bowl of chicken soup, "The doctor said it's best not to drink too much chicken soup because of your illness, but it's okay to drink some. What you two are lacking now is nutrition, come on."

Yu Meixia quickly thanked her, picked up the bowl, and drank sips.

Dong Xuebin was afraid of not having enough, so he bought more vegetables. In the end, there was a little bit of two dishes left, and half of the box of rice was left unfinished. Seeing this, Yu Qianqian naturally covered the leftover lunch boxes and placed them on the small cabinet next to the hospital bed, preparing to keep them for dinner. Dong Xuebin threw away the leftovers involuntarily. Seeing Yu Meixia and Yu Qianqian's expressions of reluctance, Dong Xuebin said: "There is no refrigerator here, and the hospital environment is not clean. Don't let it ruin your stomach."

Yu Xixi looked at the leftovers in the trash can longingly, "It's okay. My mother and I have eaten a lot and we don't have any stomachaches."

Dong Xuebin looked at Yu Meixia and frowned.

Yu Meixia hugged her daughter and shed tears again, "Sometimes we run out of money, so we go to the restaurant and ask for some leftovers from others."

Dong Xuebin sighed. The life of mother and daughter was much harder than before. At least he and his mother still had food to eat. what to do? Sooner or later something will happen to mother and daughter if things go on like this. Can you help them? But Yu Meixia and her mother-in-law seemed to owe one million, and they couldn't get it out even if they wanted to.

Just as he was thinking about it, a middle-aged man with a beard appeared in front of the hospital bed at some point.

The middle-aged man looked at Yu Meixia and Yu Xixi, "I went to your hotel to look for you. I heard that you were taken away by an ambulance. What happened?"

Yu Qianqian was a little scared and immediately shrank into her mother's arms. Yu Meixia said softly, "It's a cold."

The middle-aged man nodded and said in a stiff tone: "It's not a serious illness, but it will be cured. How is the money raised? When will the money be paid back?"

Yu Meixia said: "I'm working part-time, can you give us a little more time?"

The middle-aged man said impatiently: "How much money can you earn from working? That's one million. You can't pay it back even if you work all your life. Yu Meixia, let me tell you, if you are not in a hurry, the interest can be paid every day." When you grow up, it won't be a matter of one million in another year. It will be two to three million by then. Can you still afford it? Listen to me, I will find you a job in a nightclub. , the salary is very high, which is enough for you to pay back.”

Yu Meixia said in a panic: "I, I won't go." She knew where that place was.

The middle-aged man said: "You don't want to go? Then let your daughter go!"

Yu Qianqian cried in fear, "Mother, mother..."

Yu Meixia hugged her daughter tightly, "My daughter won't go either! I, I will make money to pay you back!"

Dong Xuebin still doesn’t understand? Looking at the middle-aged man, "Are you the creditor?"

The middle-aged man was stunned, thinking that this young man was a family member of the bed next to him, "Who are you?" He looked familiar.

Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "When Sister Yu's husband asked you to borrow money, you added interest? Haha, is this loan sharking?"

"What does it have to do with you? Are you a relative of Yu Meixia?" The middle-aged man was the boss of Yu Meixia's husband's company. The reason why he lent money to Yu Meixia's husband was because he knew that he had a beautiful wife and children, and he treated them the same way. He had been coveting it for a long time, thinking that if he could not repay the debt, he could use Yu Meixia and the two to pay off the debt. However, later, the middle-aged man encountered some problems in his business and had no intention of doing so. What he wanted now was money.

Dong Xuebin smiled, "The police in our county are arresting illegal loan sharks. Do you think this has anything to do with me? You are pointing at the gun."

Hearing this, Yu Meixia's eyes lit up and she looked at Dong Xuebin for help, "Director Dong, my husband only borrowed 400,000 from him, and the rest was interest."

Dong Xuebin said: "Oh, it's already reached one million in just half a year? Okay, that's enough to get you a few years' sentence."

The middle-aged man was slightly startled, Director Dong? Could it be Director Dong who has been making a lot of noise recently... one beats seven? Holy shit! Only middle-aged people recognized Dong Xuebin. He said he looked so familiar. When Dong Xuebin first took office, the middle-aged people went to the county police website to see Dong Xuebin's photos! The middle-aged man immediately became cautious. He was not someone he could afford to offend. He said with a grimace: "Board Director, I didn't make a loan shark. It was the interest Yu Meixia's husband agreed to when he borrowed the money. We have an agreement. "

Dong Xuebin said: "Illegal agreements will not be recognized by law. Don't you know this? What's wrong? You still want Sister Yu to work in a nightclub? I would like to hear, what do you want Sister Yu to do? Huh?"

The middle-aged man wiped his sweat and said, "That's it... Paopaotang, Paopaotang."

Dong Xuebin waved his hand, "Okay, let's not talk secretly. How much money did Sister Yu's husband borrow from you?"

"... Four hundred thousand."

"Throw out the money they paid back, how much do you still owe now?"

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly, "There are still 210,000." He also saw that Director Dong was determined to help Yu Meixia and her daughter, so he gritted his molars and said, "Director Dong, your face is for me. I dare not refuse, but it is natural to pay back debts. Well, I don’t want their interest anymore. There is still 210,000. As long as they can pay it back, I will cancel the IOU. "Director Xiao Dong has said since he took office. He had also heard of the domineering style, so he had no choice but to take a step back.

When Yu Meixia heard this, her debt changed from one million to two hundred thousand, and she almost shed tears.

Dong Xuebin nodded, this person still had some eyes, so he looked at Yu Meixia, "Sister Yu, I remember that you have a distant relative who opened a company in the capital? Can't you just borrow some money from him?" Yu Meixia was confused. For a moment, how could she have such relatives? Before she could speak, Dong Xuebin said to the middle-aged man: "Leave your name and bank card account. The money should be available in the afternoon, or tomorrow at the latest."

The middle-aged man immediately wrote an account.

As soon as he left, Yu Meixia said: "Director Dong, I, I don't have any relatives who are bosses, I..."

Dong Xuebin didn't say anything. He left the emergency ward and walked to the courtyard of the County People's Hospital to call Qu Yunxuan. It was really difficult for Dong Xuebin to come up with one million. After all, the auction company had just started and money was needed everywhere. But Dong Xuebin didn't feel so distressed at 210,000. This amount of money was nothing to him. "Hey, Aunt Xuan, how much money do we still have in our account?"

Qu Yunxuan said: "Most of it has been invested in the company's operations, and there is less than 400,000 left. What's wrong?"

Dong Xuebin coughed, "Here, I want to use some money, 210,000."

After a pause, Qu Yunxuan didn't even ask, "Okay, I'll call you right away."

"Uh, why don't you ask me?"

"Haha, you must have some use for the money. Besides, the money is originally yours. Auntie is just responsible for managing it."

"Oh, I said it's our money. Well, then I'll give you an account number and name, and you can just transfer the money there. Remember it."

"You tell me." After writing it down, Qu Yunxuan said: "There should be a delay in inter-provincial transfers, and they should arrive before six o'clock in the afternoon."

After everything was over here, Dong Xuebin hung up his phone and returned to the emergency ward.

Yu Meixia said anxiously: "I really can't come up with 210,000 yuan in a short time. If I don't pay it tomorrow..."

Dong Xuebin patted her shoulder and helped her lie down, "Sister Yu, I know you don't have any relatives who are the boss, so you were just trying to fool him. I've paid back the 210,000 yuan for you, and you can arrive in the afternoon." Your creditor’s account, now you two don’t owe anything, and you can live a good life in the future.”

Yu Meixia was stunned, "You, are you serious?"

"Haha, do I need to lie to you?"

"But, but..." Yu Meixia glanced at Dong Xuebin evasively, "We can't ask for your money."

Dong Xuebin smiled and said, "Sister Yu, don't think nonsense. I don't have any other meaning. When I see you, I seem to see myself several years ago. I am also a person who has climbed out of hard times. I will help you." I don’t mean to ask you to repay your kindness or anything.” Dong Xuebin knew that Yu Meixia might be thinking wrongly. He admitted that he did have some special thoughts about the mother and daughter, but that was also a normal phenomenon that everyone has a love for beauty. More of a sympathy, Dong Xuebin really wanted to save the mother and daughter from suffering.

Yu Meixia didn't expect that the debt that had been pestering her for half a year would be solved like this. She couldn't stop crying, "Director Dong, we... we..."

Dong Xuebin got up and said, "Okay, take good care of yourself. I'm going back."

But just as Dong Xuebin turned around to leave, two sounds came from behind him. Dong Xuebin looked back subconsciously, suddenly gave a wry smile, and walked back again.

Yu Meixia pulled Yu Qianqian to her knees and kowtowed to Dong Xuebin.

Dong Xuebin really couldn't bear this scene, and quickly helped them up, "Don't be like this, okay? Sister Yu, you are still sick, get up quickly."

Kneeling Yu Meixia cried: "Thank you, thank you!"

Yu Qianqian was also wiping her tears and burst into tears!
