"And I am not helping you free of charge, but I take the liberty to ask, what is going on with this money?"
"I don't think you and auntie don't want that kind of...people who will borrow money from these people casually."
A trace of sadness appeared on Zhang Xiaowen's face when he heard the words, and his eyes were a little reddish and said: "This is already two years ago."
"In fact, our husband and wife also have a son, because he was born late, so there are more age differences."
"Two years ago, he was just 2 years old, at the age he was about to get married."
"Moreover, under the education of our husband and wife, we have good personalities and we have a career of our own."
"Just when my wife and I were looking forward to this child getting married and having a child, I didn't know what was wrong with him. For a while, I felt very emotional."
"He who has never lost his temper with us, even started yelling at home."
"My husband and I thought he was more irritable because of business matters. During that time, we tried not to disturb him, so that when he moved out of the house later, we did not stop him."
Speaking of this, Zhang Xiaowen's face showed a look of regret, and Gao Xiang's heart moved.
Zhang Xiaowen's eye sockets were gradually reddening, and even the corners of his eyes became much deeper, and he said in pain, "However, just two weeks after he moved, we suddenly received a call from the hospital."
"The child committed suicide, and there is no chance of rescue."
"At that time, our husband and wife almost didn't resist when we heard the news. We changed it for the better. There was an old friend who was a guest at home and directly assisted us to go to the hospital."
"When I arrived at the hospital, looking at the familiar face without any anger, my wife fainted directly."
"In the midst of great grief, we finally chose to be real."
"After processing my son's funeral, this is the beginning. How long will it take for the group of people who just came to find our house."
"They took out the contract and owed them a lot of money. Let us pay it back."
"We didn't believe it at the time. For this reason, we had a big fight with them."
"Until they took out a video to testify with a colleague of my son's company at the time, we didn't know that all this was true."
"My son is in urgent need of money for some things in the company. He seems to be investing in a big project, but he is embarrassed to talk to us."
"That's why I found them. The loan is... one million."
"Moreover, many employees of companies were also owed wages. At that time, we had nothing to do."
"Fill in all the savings at home, first settle all the salaries of his company's employees, and then discuss with the loan company to postpone the full payment for a period of time."
"It turned out to be okay. With this hot pot restaurant, I can even repay 20,000 to 30,000 yuan every month, and I have a daily cost of money in my hand."
"Who knows why they didn't know why they have been eyeing this hot pot restaurant recently, we can't help it."
"Then it's...today's thing."
Gao Xiang frowned and said, "Why didn't you sell the hot pot restaurant at the time. If you sell it, it will be cheaper, and it will be enough to pay the bill, and the remaining money should be enough for your livelihood."
Zhang Xiaowen clutched his head and said, "Naturally I thought about it at the time, but I gave up later. My wife didn't want to sell this store, and if this store is sold, our family won't even have the place to go. Home is here, even if you can have money left, where can you live?"
"But if my son had said that he owed money, we would have sold the store a long time ago, and he wouldn't be unwilling to open it."
"But my son has loved face since he was a child, and he didn't respond to any difficulties and talk to us."
"Maybe it's also a stricter issue that we manage, and don't tell us anything."
"We regret it too."
Gao Xiang didn't know why Zhang Xiaowen sold this store.The store he said carries the memories of his family. This reason is actually somewhat unreasonable.
However, Gao Xiang didn't want to know the specific reason, and said softly: "The matter is over, regret is useless, and many sorrows in the world would not have happened if they had been known for a long time."
Zhang Xiaowen buried his head very low.
Gao Xiang slowly said, "Forget it, you can write down my bank card number. If you earn money in the future, you can pay me back slowly, and I'm not in a hurry."
Zhang Xiaowen raised his head, his face still full of sadness and said, "Didn't you say there is something to discuss?"
Chapter 1414
Hearing this, Gao Xiang waved his hand and said: "I originally planned to directly use enough money to buy the hot pot restaurant, but since this is your last home, then forget it."
Zhang Xiaowen thought for a while and said, "In fact, if there are other places to live, we also plan to sell this hot pot restaurant."
"My wife and I have discussed it before, and we are not young anymore, and our bodies are not as good as each day."
"It is estimated that in a few years, there will be really no heart to run this hot pot restaurant."
"I originally planned to dispose of the hot pot restaurant after the debt was paid off, if possible, and find a place to rent a house to live in, and the remaining money will be enough to spend my old age."
"Since you have spoken now, I will discuss it with my wife. It just so happens that we really don't have the energy to continue business."
"You can just give us a living allowance at that time. Even if you give us more money, we have no place to spend it."
Gao Xiang could see that the old man said these words with a deep sense of perseverance.
Gao Xiang waved his hand and murmured: "In fact, even if I acquire it, I don't have time to manage it. Then you can continue to live here and manage the store for me. I can pay you salary every month."
"When the time comes, just sign the labor contract, and you don't have to leave."
"When you feel bored and don't want to do it anymore, you can just tell me directly, and then I will arrange a place for you to live."
"Moreover, I will also give you the money sold in the hot pot restaurant, which should be enough for you."
Zhang Xiaowen's eyes suddenly brightened when he heard Gao Xiang's words.In this case, the things Zhang Xiaowen considered were basically resolved.
Zhang Xiaowen looked at Gao Xiang deeply and said, "You can see that although you are young, you are definitely an amazing person."
"What you said is also very heartwarming. If you just work part-time, you won't have to bother too much. I'm definitely very good."
"Well, wait for me, I'll discuss it with my wife."
In fact, Zhang Xiaowen had already acquiesced to Gao Xiang's proposal.The most important reason was...After today's events, they already knew that if their old couple encountered an emergency, it would not be able to solve it.
I am also afraid that the group of people will be in trouble, but if Gao Xiang buys this store, the nature is completely different.
If those people still come to make a fuss at that time, Gao Xiang will definitely not sit back and watch, and the old couple really won't have to worry too much.
Seeing that Zhang Xiaowen was about to leave Gao Xiang, he hurriedly said, "Uncle Zhang, don't worry, this matter must be discussed carefully. It just happens that it is not too early now, I will go back."
"You guys are discussing it in the evening, anyway... I will definitely have to come over tomorrow, and we will be negotiating the specific details by then."
Zhang Xiaowen was taken aback when he heard the words, and said nervously: "You are leaving now, are you so anxious?"
