I was in my final year of high school, and my deskmate found out I was writing a novel!
Chapter 258 Helping to Pay Back the Money
Ye Feng's father felt a little embarrassed. Looking at the thick red envelopes that others were giving him, he couldn't bear to look at his two thousand yuan red envelope.
It's really not easy for him to squeeze out these two thousand yuan right now, especially since he's still heavily in debt.
Ye Feng, of course, didn't mind and exchanged a few pleasantries with his somewhat unfamiliar father.
"Dad, stay in Shanghai for a few more days. I'll show you and your uncle around."
"Never mind, I have a lot going on at home, um..."
"Uncle, stay a few more days! I'll take you to see the Oriental Pearl Tower!"
Ye Feng's father wanted to say something, but Ye Feng directly called his uncle, changing the subject.
The words that were stuck in his throat were swallowed back down.
He knew that his son didn't want to give him a single penny!
But he also wanted to try asking about it.
He was interrupted and didn't want to say anything more.
"Never mind, it's a busy time at home right now. Let's come back in the summer."
The vegetable greenhouses are doing their best business right now. Although my two children are earning quite a bit of money, they're still able to work, so it's better to just sit around doing nothing.
Ye Feng's father smiled awkwardly. His older brother had arrived, and he didn't want to continue the conversation.
His uncle glanced at him, and after speaking with Ye Feng, he pulled him out of the private room.
"How much money do you still owe to outsiders?"
Ye Feng's father kept his head down, smoking without saying a word. He was over forty years old, and although the person opposite him was his own older brother, he still didn't want the other person to know how miserable he was being.
Actually, his uncle knew about his affairs, but because of Ye Feng's situation, his uncle didn't want to get involved.
But after all, he was his younger brother, and seeing him like this made him feel a little sorry for him.
"Not...not many."
"Tell me the truth! This is your only chance!"
"More than three million."
"How come there are so many!"
My uncle originally thought it would be around a million, after all, you can't have not earned a penny over the years, right?
"Sigh, actually there's still a lot of money we can't get, otherwise it would only be a hundred thousand or so."
Many people go bankrupt because of this: I owe others, and others owe me. If I can't get the money from them, I won't be able to pay them, and then the next person in need won't be able to make ends meet.
This is similar to a bank withdrawing loans.
Ye Feng's father kept his head down and didn't say anything. Actually, he was also feeling terrible. The debt collectors had even come to his house.
While they might not do anything drastic, they are still affected.
His wife and children have already taken the kids to his maternal grandparents' house. Now the creditors want to force him to sell the house, but it's his only house, and he really doesn't want to sell it. If he sells it, he'll have nothing left.
"Here's what we'll do. I'll discuss it with Ye Feng and we'll give you a portion first. But let's make this clear: don't expect Ye Feng to take care of you in your old age. He'll provide the retirement money he's owed. Just don't bother him."
"Oh, I know. I never intended for him to take care of me in my old age."
"It's good that you know."
Ye Feng had discussed this matter with his uncle, and to be honest, Ye Feng didn't really care about anything.
However, the other party never stopped providing me with living expenses. Although they didn't take care of me, they still gave me money.
Ye Feng couldn't be so heartless.
A few million is really not much for Ye Feng.
Perhaps because the debt problem had been resolved, Ye Feng's father started drinking more freely, holding a wine glass and drinking several glasses with Ye Feng.
Then, before the dinner was even over, he got drunk.
"Alright, that's enough for now. I'll take him to the hotel. Oh, and Ye Feng, you're coming with me."
The uncle also invited Ye Feng, probably because of what they had discussed before.
Miaomiao, along with her child and mother-in-law, took the child home first.
Ye Feng originally intended to arrange for his uncle to stay at home, since there were enough rooms available. He had already asked Aunt Zhao to prepare the rooms in advance.
But my uncle and his wife wouldn't have it. They insisted on going to my cousin's place, but my cousin only has one room, how could they possibly fit everyone?
He probably worried that Ye Feng's father would feel awkward staying there, so he booked a few rooms since they were close by anyway.
"I've already spoken to your dad. He owes over three million yuan, but he also has over one million yuan that he hasn't been able to recover."
"Okay, then I'll help him pay off all his debts. But Uncle, you have to make it clear to him that this is a one-time thing, there won't be a next time."
It's no wonder Ye Feng said all this in advance. If he borrows money recklessly in the future, thinking that he can just pay it back anyway!
So, let's get this preventative shot first.
"Yes, we really need to talk to him about this. Also, we can't transfer the money directly to him. Do you have time? Why don't you go home and we can go find someone to exchange the money and transfer it directly to his account?"
"I won't go. Could you please help me pay back the money later?"
"I'm fine with going, but it's not right for the money to pass through my hands."
"Then I'll have someone from the bank go with me. Oh, and I'll have my lawyer go too, so we can resolve everything."
"Okay, I'll tell your dad when he wakes up."
"Okay, I'll call him later. If he's in a hurry... then I'll have to trouble you, Uncle."
"Don't talk about whether it's troublesome or not."
Ye Feng didn't participate in this whole thing; he didn't want to meet his father's creditors.
Back home, Ye Feng didn't hide anything from Miao Miao. Although three million yuan was nothing to him, Ye Feng felt that it was still necessary to talk about such things between husband and wife, even though he knew Miao Miao didn't care.
After hearing his words, Miaomiao hugged him as a form of comfort.
"I'll support whatever you want to do."
The house was lively for only one day, and returned to normal the next day.
My uncle and his family have already gone home. They were in my father-in-law's car, with exactly five people in it. They arrived in the same way.
The father-in-law actually wanted to stay a couple more days, but since everyone was supposed to stay together, and even the father-in-law wasn't staying, he felt a little embarrassed.
They had just arrived home when the lawyer Ye Feng had called arrived.
Before he could even go home, his uncle rented a car and took Ye Feng's father to pay back the money.
It's just after the New Year, and the creditors didn't expect to actually get the money, but the situation is a bit scary.
Goodness, there were two men in suits and another one with a dark expression.
"IOU".
"No, I gave him the money when he asked to borrow it, but he hasn't paid me back in years!"
Ye Feng's father nodded, admitting that he had lent money and that he wasn't making it up.
But my uncle was also cautious.
"Lawyer, could you get him to sign a certificate stating that the money was borrowed by him and confirm that it has been repaid in full?"
The uncle came directly with him because he was worried that Ye Feng's father would hire someone to pretend to be a creditor in order to get more money, and he didn't give him any time at all!
The lawyer is responsible for reviewing the loans and contracts; anything with problems will not be granted!
But as long as there are no problems, the money will be transferred immediately, without missing a single penny, and interest will be calculated.
Some people were planning to cause trouble, but the lawyer made a phone call and summoned the police. Now everything is settled, and those with problems can file their own lawsuits!
