The strongest medical saint in the city

Chapter 8 Repayment of Debt

Early the next morning, as soon as Zhou You woke up, he heard a hasty knock on the door.When I opened the door, I saw five or six villagers headed by Aunt Qian standing outside the door.

Zhou You frowned: "What's the matter?"

The sharp-tongued Aunt Qian immediately said: "Zhou You, yesterday I saw that you threw a wad of money to that lazy three. It seems that you are prosperous. When will you pay back the money owed to us folks?"

Zhou You looked at Zhou Hui behind him in confusion, and Zhou Hui said to Zhou You: "Brother, in fact, my father's health has not been very good these years, thanks to the relief from the villagers..."

"Why didn't you tell me about these things earlier!" Zhou You said guiltily.I practiced "Shen Nong's Medical Classic" by myself, and countless people survived, but I didn't even cure my father's illness!
"Father is afraid that you will be distracted outside, so we don't allow us to tell you." Zhou Hui said with her head down.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Aunt Qian said in a sharp voice, "It's only natural to pay the debt, so pay it quickly!"

"Everyone!" Qi Sisi hurriedly stood up and said, "The younger sister of the Zhou family has just been admitted to university, and the money from Zhou You is used to pay Xiaohui's tuition. If everyone really needs money urgently, I still have some savings here, which is not enough for future It will definitely be paid off. Folks in the village, I will not rely on your money!"

"Mr. Qi, thank you very much." Zhou You smiled slightly at Qi Sisi, and said loudly, "I will not default on the money I owe you. Come in with the IOUs, and you will not lose a penny of the money you owe !"

Aunt Qian immediately took out an IOU: "At the beginning, I gave your old Zhou family 500 yuan. It has been almost two years. According to the bank's interest rate, the interest will be ten yuan for you!"

Zhou You didn't even look at it, just took out six cards from his backpack and threw them to Aunt Qian: "The extra one hundred is considered interest!"

Aunt Qian did not expect Zhou You to be so generous, so she quickly checked that the money was real, and quickly hid it in her trouser pocket.

Other villagers also came to Zhou You with IOUs.One of the honest villagers said with some embarrassment: "Zhou You, look at the trouble... If my girl hadn't needed tuition fees for high school this time, she wouldn't have been instigated by Aunt Qian to come up early in the morning to ask for money. "

Zhou You took over the IOU, and it was not easy for a farmer who lived on the land to lend 2000 yuan at once. He smiled and said, "Uncle Chen, Zhou You is in a hurry for your kindness. The younger sister of the Chen family needs to go to school. I can understand, this is 4000 yuan, you can keep it."

"No, no, no!" Uncle Chen is not willing to accept it, "Mr. Zhou saved my life back then, but he didn't charge me a cent. This time, I'm going to put on an old face to ask for money. How can I collect your interest..."

"Uncle Chen, just keep it." Zhou You stuffed the money into the other party's hands without any explanation, and said loudly, "You were willing to lend money to my family back then, but now no matter what the reason is, I will always remember this when you come to ask for money. How much I owe you, I will pay you back double!"

Aunt Qian was still complacent about asking for an extra 100 yuan, but when she saw Zhou You being so "discriminatory", she suddenly felt unbalanced: "Zhou You, what do you mean? Why should you give them so much money? Just give it to me So much?"

Zhou You snorted disdainfully, and didn't bother to talk to her.Instead, the other villagers couldn't stand it anymore, and shouted and scolded: "Aunt Qian, are you still not satisfied? Let alone Mr. Zhou treated you several times before his death, and you only borrowed 500 yuan from the old Zhou's family. How much did you take advantage of them afterwards? Zhou You will pay you back six hundred, what else do you want!"

"Yes, yes, if it weren't for the fact that our families are in trouble, would we listen to your instigation and come to ask for debts!"

Everyone said what they said, even though Aunt Qian was a shrew, she didn't dare to make people angry and left Zhou You's house as if she had fled.

After Zhou You paid off the villagers' debts, he said to Zhou Hui, "Little sister, who else do we owe?"

"There are quite a few people." Zhou Hui quickly took out a notebook from the room, "I remember everything."

Zhou You flipped through it, picked up his backpack, and said to Zhou Hui, "Let's go."

"Where are you going?" Zhou Hui blinked her big eyes and didn't react for a while.

"Pay off the debt."

According to the list in Zhou Hui's notes, Zhou You paid back the money from door to door. Those who didn't take the initiative to come to the door, Zhou You always paid back three times the money, and some families who were in distress, Zhou You even gave four times the money.

Zhou You's reputation quickly spread in Lingquan Village.When the person who came to ask for debts in the morning heard the news, he regretted it for a while, but after thinking about it carefully, it was his own fault. Zhou You was benevolent, so naturally he can't be blamed, so he poured all his resentment on Aunt Qian.

Zhou You did this to repay the debt on the one hand, but the most important thing he wanted was to use this incident to let Lingquan Village do something for him.

On the second day after paying off the debt, Zhou You gathered the whole village on the playground.

"Zhou You, you asked us to gather here early in the morning, what's the matter?"

"That's right, I still have a day of farm work today, so let's talk quickly if you have anything to say."

"How much money can I earn by doing farm work?" Zhou You said loudly, "I have a job here, I wonder if you are willing to do it."

While Zhou You was talking, Zhou Hui distributed a booklet to everyone. When everyone opened it, they saw some "weeds" painted on it, and a price was marked under each photo.These are all the herbs that Zhou You found from "Shen Nong's Medical Classic", and went to the county town overnight to fight.
