From abandoned baby to CEO

Chapter 14 Creditors press for debts, Sun Xue goes to the city to work

The main reason for Sun Pengfei's repentance and reform was also due to Sun Xue's generosity.

I am a big boy, and I directed and acted in a good show of framing Sun Xue. Unexpectedly, after the incident was exposed, Sun Xue chose to forgive him, which made him ashamed. After a fierce ideological struggle, he learned from the pain and determined to transform himself.

In the end, with Sun Xue's help and his own efforts, he changed completely in his last year of elementary school. This change not only surprised him, but also gave people around him a new understanding of him.

During the holidays, Sun Xue was not idle at all. Grandpa cut wheat, and Sun Xue helped tie up the wheat that grandpa cut down in the field, and then stacked them into wheat stacks of the same size. These tasks are not easy for the thin Xueer at all. In the hot summer, with the scorching sun above his head, Sun Xue's clothes were soaked, and the sweat flowed down his cheeks and into his eyes, making him unable to open them. Sun Xue couldn't care less, wiped the sweat with her sleeves, and continued to work hard.

Harvesting wheat is generally a job for adults, and children can at best help adults pick up the wheat heads scattered in the field.

However, Sun Xue knew in her heart that if she didn't help, her grandfather would have to do all the work alone. Grandpa is already working hard enough. She must learn to do all the work so that she can lighten the burden on him.

Sun Xue did not dare to neglect at all, and had to work against time during the few days of harvesting wheat. She had to tie up the wheat that her grandfather had fallen to the ground and pile it into a pile as soon as possible. You can't tell when it will rain, and all your efforts will be wasted. Wheat that has been soaked by rain will not only become moldy but even sprout, and a year's hard work will be wasted.

The wheat stack was taller than Sun Xue. She had to use all her strength to throw the wheat bundles up while holding the wheat bundles. At first she could barely throw it up easily, but then she felt her strength was getting weaker and weaker. She even had to throw the top sheaf several times before she could throw it up.

This simple action is nothing to adults, but for Sun Xue, it is a great challenge to her body.

However, Sun Xue was not discouraged. She had an unyielding spirit in her bones, which was also taught to her by her hard life. Children without umbrellas can only run desperately in the rain.

With the joint efforts of Grandpa and Sun Xue, all the wheat in the field was harvested in three days.

After harvesting the wheat, the grandfather and grandson finally breathed a sigh of relief. They took the wheat and dried it for a while before grinding it home.

After dinner that evening, Sun Xue and his grandfather were enjoying the cool under the grape trellis in the yard.

At this time, a burly man walked in.

"Is this Sun Erzhu's home?" the man asked.

"Yes! I am Erzhu's father." Old Man Sun stood up and said.

"Oh, old man, where is Erzhuren? He has been delaying repaying the five hundred yuan he lent me for several years. Now my wife is lying in the hospital waiting for urgent money!"

"Er Zhu had an accident in the coal mine a few years ago." Old Man Sun said with a sad expression.

"Oh! Where is his wife? She has to pay back the money when he is gone."

"Hey! His wife ran away with someone!" Old Man Sun's face looked ugly when he said this.

"Then what should I do? I have to pay back the money! He and his wife are not here, so I can only ask you for it!"

"This!...I really have no money on hand now!"

"Can you just say that you have no money? At that time, he begged me to lend him money, and he kept delaying it. It has been several years, and it's time to pay it back! I have difficulties myself!"

"I know, can you please slow down and let me think of a way!" Old Man Sun begged.

"Let me tell you, don't even think about defaulting on your debt! I have kept all the IOUs. At that time, I asked Er Zhu for money, and he kept pushing. Today you push again. I think you have agreed that you are not ready to pay back the money. Bar?"

"No, no! The family really doesn't have any money." Old Man Sun replied helplessly.

"Stop talking so much, I don't want to hear it either. Give you a month and you can figure it out on your own! Let's talk about the ugly things first. Don't blame me for being rude then!"

After saying that, the man walked away angrily.

Throughout the whole process, Sun Xue hid aside and listened to the conversation between his grandfather and the strange man. Grandpa always said nice things in front of the man, with a condescending expression. After the man left, Grandpa's face was filled with sorrow, and he kept smoking with his head down.

Sun Xue knew that her grandfather really couldn't come up with the money, and the 2000 yuan left by her aunt had already been spent on medicine for her brother's treatment. The only thing that can be exchanged for money at home is wheat. The wheat has not yet been ground and brought home. Even if it is ground and brought home, we cannot sell it all. This is the family's ration for a year. After selling it, the whole family will go to drink the northwest wind.

When the man left, he only left Grandpa a month to collect money. After a month, if grandpa still hasn’t raised the money, I wonder what will happen? Sun Xue was in distress. She wanted to help her grandfather, but she didn't know how...

However, things took a turn for the better at this time.

One day, a distant uncle of Sun Xue was chatting at Old Man Sun's house. During the chat, he accidentally mentioned that a boss in their village had opened a restaurant in the city and the business was very good. But now is the busy farming season. The busboy in the restaurant has gone home to harvest wheat, and the boss asked him to find someone to help in the restaurant.

Sun Xue, who was on the side, immediately became excited after hearing this.

"Uncle, tell the boss, can I go to his restaurant to help?"

"You? You can't bear that hardship!" The uncle looked at Sun Xue and shook his head.

"I can! I'm not afraid of hardship! I'm not afraid of any dirty work!" Sun Xue saw her uncle shaking his head and immediately answered with confidence.

"It doesn't matter if my salary is low, please just ask for me!"

Sun Xue was very anxious. She saw that her uncle had no confidence in her and was hesitating. She was afraid of losing this great opportunity to make money.

"This...does your grandfather agree with you to go?" The uncle turned to look at Old Man Sun.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I can do it, so just let me go. Anyway, I don't have any homework, and it's still early to leave school!"

Before Old Man Sun could speak, Sun Xue took Old Man Sun's arm and begged pitifully.

"Xue'er, you are still young and can't do it! Grandpa is worried!"

"Grandpa, don't worry, I can do it! Just let me go!" Sun Xue begged.

"This... then you should be careful when doing things outside. If you can't do it, come back!"

Grandpa said this and agreed to her going. Sun Xue felt so beautiful in her heart.

"Then you pack your things tonight and bring a few changes of clothes. I will take you to the city to find your boss tomorrow."

Sun Xue nodded happily. If the boss agreed to let her stay, she calculated that she would be able to earn a few hundred yuan for her grandfather, who would then be able to pay off his debts, with more than a month left before school started.

Thinking of this, Sun Xue was so excited that she couldn't sleep well all night.
