Chapter 1084: A Person Who Worries About Nothing
"His father came to our store last month, and he didn't say anything at the time. Anyway, he asked him to take leave and go back with him. Erdong didn't want to go back at first, but he didn't want to be upset with his father, so he asked for a few Back on vacation.
Then, it wasn’t until a week later that he told me that my brother had lost a lot of money and his sister-in-law wanted a divorce. The child was left unattended, so his father had no choice but to let him go back to see if he could help his brother.
He only told me after careful consideration.
I don’t know how to deal with this matter. To be honest, if it were for anything else, I would lend him some even if I borrowed it. But if you lose the bet, this money will be a bottomless pit. Moreover, I also I feel like this shouldn't put pressure on him in the first place, right?
I still asked him if he wanted to help his brother or how to do it. If he decided to help, I could pay him two more months of salary, but that was all I could do. I couldn’t do anything more... ..." Xi Wenxin doesn't know what to do. He still hasn't figured out what to do.
Now that Pan Erdong is back, he hasn't had time to ask how things were done at home.
"At that time, Erdong said that he had to deal with it well before he could come back. Moreover, he didn't want me to pay more. He said he wanted to come back and assured me that he would not bring the impact of this incident to the store. .
To be honest, I also know that what I said is a bit hurtful. After all, for such a big thing, I didn’t stand behind him to help him. Instead, I felt like I was cutting off his tail because he was in trouble. However, I told him at the time that if he If he can handle it well, the store will welcome him back at any time.
I don't know if this is the right thing to do. "He had been struggling for a long time. It was difficult to tell Lu Jingxing on the phone. Now they were face to face. After he finished speaking, he let out a long breath.
"This... what are you so upset about? He is his brother. He has nothing to do with him, let alone you." Lu Jingxing felt that Xi Wenxin seemed to be asking for trouble.
"You don't know..." Xi Wenxin said irritably.
"Huh? Is there anything else I don't know..." Lu Jingxing washed his hair and came out, looking at Xi Wenxin who was stunned on the sofa, trying not to figure out what was going on with him.
"Well, Erdong's sister-in-law..." Xi Wenxin said hesitantly.
"Do you know his sister-in-law?" Lu Jingxing asked.
Xi Wenxin raised his head and looked at Lu Jingxing, his eyes evasive.
This made Lu Jingxing a little confused: "What do you mean?"
"Oh..." Xi Wenxin was heartbroken: "Do you think this world is really small? Guess who Erdong's sister-in-law is?"
"Who?" Lu Jingxing was a little confused: "Could it be your ex-girlfriend?"
"You got the answer right..." Xi Wenxin screamed.
"Ah? This is too narrow a road between enemies, isn't it? Didn't you say she went abroad?" Lu Jingxing remembered Xi Wenxin telling him.
"Yes, I also said that she sent me messages for a while, saying that her husband was not good to her, but I ignored her. It is said that she got divorced and returned to China not long ago, but she just didn't know how to follow her. Brother Erdong got together again and got married, and I found out accidentally. Of course, Erdong didn't know that I knew his sister-in-law." Xi Wenxin said.
"This is too bloody..." Lu Jingxing didn't know how to describe it: "So, Erdong still doesn't know, right?"
Xi Wenxin shook his head: "I don't know, so I hope he can handle it well and not bring this matter to the store, especially not to let his sister-in-law come here. I don't want to be passively involved."
"Probably not. You can go back and ask Erdong how he handled it. You should have some confidence in your mind, but it is probably a bit difficult to completely stop Erdong from his brother. After all, they are related by blood. But, as far as you are concerned, I think it shouldn’t matter,” Lu Jingxing said.
"Do you know why I'm worried? Because when Erdong's father came to see him that day, his sister-in-law came with him. At that time, Erdong directly pulled the two of them outside and said that they didn't come into the store. If they did, As for the store, his sister-in-law must know that I own this store, I..." Xi Wenxin was still a little frightened.
"Do you still like her?" Lu Jingxing asked.
"How is that possible? That was how long ago, how could I still like her?" Xi Wenxin immediately argued.
"Then let's get married. For one reason, you are not afraid of the shadow. She has already been married for the second time, so she can still come to pester you. Besides, she was sorry for you at the beginning, and it was not you who was sorry for her. If she really wants to find you, It’s untenable, and the same applies to Erdong. He works here, and it’s not his brother’s turn to come to his place to cause trouble..." Lu Jingxing analyzed.
"I know that, but I feel a little irritated when encountering this kind of thing." Xi Wenxin shook his head in annoyance.
"Okay, you're calling yourself a mediocre person. You were never like this before. When did you become so indecisive?" Lu Jingxing knew that this was actually the reason why he hadn't completely let go. He couldn't help it. First love is always hard to let go of. of.
Seeing Lu Jingxing yawning, Xi Wenxin didn't stay any longer and went home directly.
Early the next morning, he came again, this time to pick up Lu Jingxing and Ji Ling to have breakfast together.
Seeing his energetic appearance, Lu Jingxing and Ji Ling looked at each other and smiled.
Lu Jingxing didn't tell Ji Ling about Xi Wenxin.
But this did not affect Ji Ling's good mood.
"Why don't you be so polite? We can just have some breakfast ourselves." Seeing Xi Wenxin waiting for the two of them in the hotel lobby, Lu Jingxing said with a smile.
"I purposely didn't let you book a room with breakfast, just so that I could have breakfast with you in the morning. Well, it's still early, don't be in a hurry, let's go..." Xi Wenxin led the way.
Several people went to have breakfast together. While Ji Ling was about to wash her hands, Xi Wenxin talked about what Er Dong told him after he returned: "His brother ran away. No one knows where he went. He owes him a debt." The amount is too big. With their family’s savings and everything else, they will definitely not be able to pay it. , his sister-in-law had already gone through the divorce procedures with his brother, and it was done before they came. His brother still had some conscience and wrote a statement to everyone stating that all the debts had nothing to do with the family. Although this statement It doesn't do much, but it's better after all.
However, Erdong said that their family actually has several houses. After discussion, they still planned to dispose of several properties to help his brother pay off the debt. Now that they have been entrusted, it is estimated that if they are all disposed of, they should be able to pay back the debt. Well, as for what happens in the future, he doesn't know what to do. This is the only thing he can do.
As for his sister-in-law, because she knew that those houses were not in his brother's name when they got married, she didn't take more when they got divorced. She just wanted one house and divided it...
The reason why she was divorced and came to him with his father this time was purely because the creditor came to find her. Although she was divorced, she couldn't be completely divorced at once, so she had no choice but to follow his father to come to him. , and the reason for asking him to go back was to get his consent and signature for those houses to be sold.
He is not married now, and he has no girlfriend. He had no intention of having those things in the first place, so he signed it when he was asked to sign it. He couldn't completely ignore it. After all, he was his brother, and the house belonged to him. Dad bought it. He couldn't possibly stop a father from saving his son.
However, he also said that he will no longer take care of it in the future, and has no conditions to take care of it anymore. Now he has left a small set at home for his parents to live in, and is taking care of everything else...
I didn’t ask why their family had so many houses. I was particularly curious as to why he still had to work this hard job outside when there were so many houses. However, he didn’t say that it was not good for me at this juncture. The boss asked, this is probably the case, I hope his brother will not do it again in the future. "Xi Wenxin said in a low voice, half-lying on the table.
Lu Jingxing nodded. He somewhat understood Pan Erdong's thoughts. If it were him, he might do the same.
After all, it was his father's family property. He only had the right to inherit it and had no right to oppose his father's desire to save a son, even though that son seemed to be a prodigal.
He felt a little sorry for that boy. He could have lived a life without worries about food and clothing, but because of such a brother, he had to start everything over again.
While the two were talking, Ji Ling came back: "What are you talking about? After eating, should we continue going back to the store?"
"Nothing to talk about. Let's go back to the store, or you can go shopping. We are all here today, so it should be fine, but I don't have more time to spend with you." Xi Wenxin called the waiter to pay, and then smiled and talked to the two people say.
"I don't need your company. Let's go back to the store first. I heard that the night market here is quite famous. Let's go out for a stroll in the evening..." Lu Jingxing stood up and said to Ji Ling with a smile.
Ji Ling nodded immediately: "I can do it, I'll listen to you."
So, the three of them walked back to the store.
Everyone has arrived at the store and is already busy.
Because Xi Wenxin had surgery, he went to work on himself as soon as he returned to the store.
Lu Jingxing didn't wander around the store yesterday, so he would go to the backyard when there was nothing else to do.
Not long after he walked around, Ji Ling came running to find him: "Go and take a look in front..."
"What's wrong?" Lu Jingxing asked.
"There is a puppy that is very dirty. The owner brought it over for a bath, but the store didn't really want to pick it up. You go and have a look..." Ji Ling said.
The two came to the hall together, and at a glance they saw many people discussing something in the middle of the hall.
"This is difficult to do, it's all knotted, and..." Xi Wenxin was not there, and Pan Erdong didn't see anyone. They probably entered the operating room together.
Only Fang Guo was talking to the owner, looking very embarrassed.
Lu Jing walked over and asked, "What's going on?"
Fangguo stood up immediately: "Brother Lu, this guest wants to give this little guy a haircut and a bath, but his body is really dirty. The little four who is taking a bath today is not here, so they can't do this..."
"Help, please. The main reason is that we have gone to several stores and they really don't want to wash it. Either they don't want to wash it or they just can't cut it. It's really pitiful. We've lost it for three years. It's its own fault. I found it. Now that it is like this, I can't even recognize it. If it hadn't been like the ones before, From the instructions and gestures, I'm really not sure that this is my Xu Dawang. "The owner is a woman in her twenties with dreadlocks on her head. At first glance, it looks surprisingly consistent with the hairstyle she said of Xu Dawang, but she is. He was wearing some hair accessories, but Xu Dawang was dressed in black, and the original color could no longer be seen.
Xu Dawang looked at the people surrounding it with an innocent face, and his eyes revealed a kind of pity.
The woman squatted down: "Xu Dawang, if they can't pick you up, what will we do? I can't take you back with you like this, so you can only continue to wander."
"You know it's your Xu Da Wang, why do you let it continue to wander?" Ji Ling asked in disbelief.
"Then it doesn't look like Xu Da Wang like this. Besides, how can I take it back like this? You can't blame me." The girl with dreadlocks said it confidently.
"You..." Ji Ling was so angry that she almost cursed.
Lu Jingxing immediately pulled her. There was no need to get angry for such a person. Isn't it just to be Tony teacher again? He can do this. As long as the money is in place, there is no work that can't be done.
"Five hundred, I'll cut it... Washing is another price..." Lu Jingxing said.
"Deal..." The girl with dreadlocks immediately responded: "Money is not a problem, as long as it is cleaned, I don't want it. It ran away by itself at the beginning, and I have been looking for it for many days. It's just that it is too dirty now, I can't take it back, and I really can't cut it myself..." The girl also explained.
Hearing her say this, Ji Ling's anger also disappeared by half: "I'll help you..." She pouted.
Lu Jingxing laughed: "Okay, then, you just go to the front desk to pay, and Xu Dawang will be handed over to us."
The employee immediately took the rope from the girl and took the little guy to the beauty salon.
Lu Jingxing and Ji Ling also changed their clothes and walked over.
"How about I come, how can I let you do it yourself..." The speaker was a new employee who had just arrived not long ago. He was usually responsible for bathing the dogs, not for beauty.
The beauty staff took a leave today, so no one knows how to beautify.
"It's okay, you go and do your job, just leave it to me." Lu Jingxing knew that the store was now a carrot and a pit, and everyone was very busy. For example, bathing and beauty work, it was only accepted by appointment.
It was also because of this that the beauty staff took a leave today, and the store did not arrange beauty work.
If he asked the bathing staff to do this, then the bathing work over there would have to be postponed, and everything would be messed up again.
Besides, he felt that Xu Dawang would not be able to handle this new employee with his messy black hair. Otherwise, Fang Guo wouldn't have been in such a difficult situation just now.
