The eldest brother Han wanted to write an IOU for his younger brother and sister as soon as he was afraid, but Lin Lan sighed secretly. This stupid eldest brother.
“Eldest brother, you have to have them sign it themselves. If you were the one who signed it, should they decide not to pay the amount, would you be the one who is going to take up the payment? How are you going to pay? Do you want the eldest sister-in-law to hang herself?”
The eldest brother Han was also stunned, but he understood. He went back with second brother to talk to their family.
Old Lady Han was on the verge of collapse. Now that she heard that if she didn’t pay back the money, she would be imprisoned and possibly shot, she started to usher them to hurry. She asked her children to write the IOU huirriedly to the point where she wanted to write the letter herself, “I-I’m going to give my bones and ashes to Old Three at this rate! Hurry, give your third brother a call! Ask him to collect this debt from his wife!”
“Mother, just don’t make a mess,” The eldest brother Han was anxious as he began to speak out, “Wasn’t he the one who went over to their place and made a fuss while the third brother wasn’t at home? Now, she’s doing the same thing against all of you, so what can we do about it?”
If his third brother was here, then this situation wouldn’t have happened anyways. If he was present, it wouldn’t have become this bad.
Of course, with Old Three at home, the fourth brother wouldn’t have the galls to do anything as well.
Great then, they would have to give their entire lives offering to the Third family.
Who didn’t know about the attitude of the old lady? She purposely waited for her son to leave before immediately leaving to the city to make a fuss. It was clear to everyone that she did it on purpose.
What was this called? Ah yes, shooting yourself in the leg and blocking off your own road— they deserved it.
The eldest sister-in-law sneered in the East room.
Han Jinyu was still crying about the fact that her mother preferred sons to daughters and had given her brother more money than what she received, “Jinbao spends more, so why should I also pay five hundred?”
Han Jinbao was rude, “I-I’ll hack her to death, it’s no big deal if we trade a life for a life!”
The eldest brother Han said angrily, “Just quit it will you?! It’s you who will be hacked to death first!”
In the end, it was Han Qingyun who delivered the official news. He came over with a red-coloured document and read the spirit of the meeting. Anyway, it was all about opposing waste, corruption, luxury, and the bourgeoisie and feudalism.
“If the third sister-in-law goes to the County Public Security Bureau and your school to file a complaint, then the two of you won’t be able to get your diploma. By then, you two wouldn’t even have jobs to have in the city…”
As soon as the sentence was announced, both Old Man Han and Old Lady Han were horrified as they quickly demanded the children to write an IOU!
They asked Han Jinbao and Han Jinyu to write. Han Jinbao claimed that he was in pain, so he asked his sister to write one for him.
Han Jinyu’s hands trembled uncontrollably, and as a result, she still couldn’t write a formal IOU.
Han Qingyun said, “Well, your learning is pretty limited, it seems.”
He instructed Han Jinyu to write the IOU and asked Han Jinbao to copyit. Then, each of them stamped their handprint on the papers.
