"Son, where are you? Come back quickly, this family is about to die!" On the phone, Fengli's mother spoke in a weeping voice, appearing a little hysterical.

"Mom, don't worry, I'm rushing home. You tell them, we will pay back the money." Pineapple, who is usually calm and relaxed, also looks quite uneasy at the moment, "Tell them not to act rashly, what's the matter?" Wait until I get back."

Fengli's home is located on the outskirts of W City, but not too far from the city. It is a newly built villa community in recent years.Most of the money for buying a house was paid by Pineapple. He said that his parents have worked hard all their lives, and it is time for them to enjoy life. Providing them with good accommodation conditions is the most basic guarantee for a good life.

After getting off the plane, Fengli rushed home non-stop, and the person who drove to the airport to pick him up was You Gu, a good friend from his hometown.The weather outside has risen sharply due to the entry of summer, and the pineapple in the car is sweating profusely because of something on his mind.

"Could you turn up the air conditioner a little bit more, buddy!" Pineapple shouted to Yougu.

You Gu didn't answer, but just turned on the air conditioner silently.Because of being unstoppable for many years, Yougu understands Fengli's mood at the moment.

……

The car finally drove to the door of my house, and I saw several black off-road vehicles blocking the door from a distance.Although it was inconvenient for the passing pedestrians to pass, they only sporadically whispered, but no one dared to ask someone to move the car away.

Pineapple asked Yougu to pull over on the side of the road, and looked in the direction of home: "Just wait for me in the car, I can handle it by myself." Obviously at this moment, Pineapple has returned to its previous state.

At noon, the sun is scorching the earth, but it doesn’t feel hot when you walk into the yard. There is no one in the yard, and the potted plants and decorations in the yard are scattered on the ground. When you look closely, several flower pots are covered with flowers. smashed to pieces.

Fengli regained her composure, and noticed that the people in the room knew that he had come in, so she walked straight into the room.

"Son!" Fengli's mother was the first to speak as soon as she entered the room, and she ran over and hugged Fengli, crying.

"Did you come here alone?" The leader of the man in black took off his sunglasses and asked contemptuously, but seemed to be talking to himself, "Have guts!"

"We've already wasted half a day here, and we don't want to spend any more time." The man in black looked at Pineapple, "In a word, you owe me 50 yuan, should you pay it back today?!"

"50? Why so much?" Fengli asked his mother in a low voice.

When Fengli came here, she just heard on the phone that her father had lost money in gambling outside, owed debts, and hadn't paid them back for many days.The other party seems to be a gangster, and his father has been detained. Now he has come to collect debts for several days in a row. Mom has no choice but to ask Fengli for help.

"Boss Chen, my old man only owes you 30 yuan, why did you ask for 50 yuan?" Fengli's mother asked while weeping.

"Because, what your old man owes is usury." The other party said in a cold voice, "What's the matter? Too little? If you don't pay it back, it will be 100 million!"

"What if we don't have the money to pay back?" Fengli asked calmly, as if it was just a passerby asking about something irrelevant.

"No money to pay back?" The other party walked up to Fengli and threatened in his ear. "Then take off your dad's legs first."

"Son, I have to pay it back. We will pay it back even if we sell everything!" Fengli's mother cried to Fengli and then said to the black-clothed man in a begging tone, "We must pay back the money, please hurry up and return my house. Let the old man go."

The big man in black glanced at Fengli's mother, who was begging bitterly, but turned his attention to Fengli's face, paying attention to his every move.

"50, we will pay it back, and we will pay it back today." Fengli spoke clearly and loudly, "But I have a few conditions."

"Oh?" The big man in black began to observe Pineapple from the moment he entered the door, and felt that this kid has performed well so far under such circumstances, and he couldn't help feeling a little appreciative in his heart, so he asked calmly, "What conditions? "

"One, no matter how much you owed before, the amount of 50 is finalized. After the amount is repaid, the debts of both parties will be cancelled, and there will be no harm from now on." Pineapple waited for the big man in black with piercing eyes, seeing that the other party did not refute, and then said , "Two, 50, not a small amount, you go back first, and I will send the money before sunset today. Three, you release people first."

"Haha, one or two is fine, three is not." The big man in black suppressed his laughter, "Pay the money with one hand and let the person go with the other. Before sunset, we won't wait for the expiration date. Let's go!"

With an order, the men in black all over the room scattered out of the door in an instant.Most of the solemnity and depression in the air disappeared in an instant, and Fengli's mother suddenly slumped on the ground, crying silently again,...

"They're all gone." The person who came was Yougu who had been waiting in the car, and briefly explained the situation to Fengli, "Don't worry, I'm here to help take care of my aunt."

"Thank you so much, good brother." Fengli nodded heavily towards Yougu.

"It's just, about the money, can you really handle it by yourself? Do you want me to help raise some too." You Gu still doesn't feel at ease that Fengli can handle such a large amount in one day alone.

"You've helped me a lot, I'll do it myself." Feng Li patted You Gu's shoulder, then turned and left.

No one knows what happened after that, because it was all handled by Fengli himself. All I know is that he finally collected 50 yuan and redeemed his father before sunset.

"I... am back." Fengli's father whispered like a child who has done something wrong.

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back." Fengli's mother said, tears overflowing her eyes again.

The two hugged each other tightly for a long time.

"That's nothing, I'll take my leave first." You Gu stood up and bid farewell to Fengli's parents, "Uncle, aunt, I'm leaving first." Turning to Fengli, he gestured "Call me if you have anything to do".

"Go slowly!" Fengli's parents said to You Gu in unison.

"Let's go, let's go out to eat too. After a busy day, everyone is tired, so go out and have a good meal together." Fengli greeted her parents.

"I just paid back so much money, and it's too expensive to go out to eat." Fengli's mother said a little embarrassedly.

Fengli's father didn't say anything, he just swallowed his saliva.

"Okay, I know, if something like this happened, there must be no food prepared at home, let's go!" Fengli smiled and urged the two elders to go out together.

"Son, in fact, Dad knows that it's not easy for you to be away, and I also know what you have done for the family these years. I just want you to suffer less, so..." In the restaurant, Fengli's father drank a few glasses of wine , with a flushed face and a choked tone, "I want to gamble and get rich, or at least lighten your living burden. But... it's all my fault."

"Dad, don't talk about these things. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Don't mention it again after this matter is over. You and Mom can take care of the old age together, and you don't need to worry about the rest." Seeing this scene, Feng Li's eyes rolled Also slightly moist.

"Hey, how can I not worry, I haven't seen you get married for a day, and I won't die with peace." Fengli's mother also said with emotion.

"Mom, don't say it's unlucky." Fengli hurriedly persuaded.

"Yes, Mom must live well, Mom is still waiting to hold a grandson!"
