The Big Landlord

Just when Wang Ben was about to decline again, several villagers who were sitting at the two tables next to him also surrounded him and persuaded him to drink together.

"Benzi, we sincerely respect you," an elder over 60 said sincerely.

Another villager said bluntly: "Yes, you helped us so much behind your back, borrow your wine today, and thank you for everything you say."

"Ah!" Wang Ben exclaimed suddenly, and asked in surprise, "How do you know?"

How did he know that Zeng Yi, a little policeman, was asked to give everyone money under the pretext of recovering the stolen money. This matter could not be concealed at all. More and more people went to the Public Security Bureau to inquire about the matter, and in the end Zeng Yi couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to tell the whole story to the public.

After learning that it was Wang Ben's own money, combined with the initial series of actions and opinions, most of the villagers felt guilty in their hearts. Under the organization of the captain Liu Changsheng, they held such a birthday banquet, hoping to pass this way. , express a thank you, and repair the relationship between the neighbors at the same time.

It wasn't until this time that Wang Ben suddenly realized that he was a junior, and it was not his turn for the whole team to celebrate his birthday. No wonder Ma Yunxiu was so eager to hold a banquet for him yesterday, no wonder they all came to help, and, these two days The villagers were also a little weird when they saw him.

Since it was his personal money, the villagers were absolutely unwilling to accept it. After Liu Changsheng took the lead in taking out the subsidized money, the rest of the villagers also started to pay for it, wanting to return it to Wang Ben face to face.

For a while, most of the people who were eating stood up. The banquet was very lively just now, and now it seems to have become a money repayment meeting.

Among them, many villagers took the money to repay the accounts of their relatives, and the rest was not enough, but they still planned to pay the rest first, and assured them very firmly: "Book, the money is not enough, the rest We will replenish you as soon as possible."

"Don't!"

Facing a large group of villagers rushing towards him, Wang Ben hurriedly took two steps back, stretched out his palms and shouted loudly, barely stopping everyone's footsteps, before he said very solemnly: "Just treat it as the one I lent you. OK."

"But you are not rich. Didn't you ask the bank to come to the team to make loans some time ago?" said a villager.

"Yes, if you didn't give it to us, you wouldn't need to borrow two million," Liu Changsheng also said. To handle such a large loan, you must have the joint signature of the team leader and the village committee to guarantee it. He knows better than everyone else.

Even Grandma Zhen came over with the help of a cane, and said kindly, "Son, don't make yourself miserable just to help everyone."

Living in the countryside, a loan of two million is really not a small amount. If you continue to farm like before, you probably won’t be able to pay it back in your lifetime, so everyone would rather be tighter than pay back the money.

For everyone's concern, Wang Ben was very moved. For him, money is not a difficult problem. There will no longer be any barriers between the villagers of Xiushuiwan.

Grandma Chongzhen pursed her lips and smiled, turned her head and said to everyone: "It doesn't matter, please rest assured, I will pay back the money within half a year."

He took the initiative to take the bowl of wine in Liu Changsheng's hand, held it up high with both hands, looked around at all the villagers in the courtyard, and said gratefully: "I drank this bowl of wine, thank you for looking up to me Such a junior,

Come and help me celebrate my birthday! "

Staring intently at the wine in the bowl, he brought it to his mouth resolutely, grunted twice, and drank it upside down within a few seconds.

He raised his arm to wipe his mouth, and greeted warmly: "Everyone, continue to eat..."

Just halfway through the conversation, he suddenly felt dizzy, and hurriedly turned around and walked towards the house.

"Slap!"

The feet were soft, and the whole person fell straight into the courtyard dam, his eyes were darkened, he didn't know anything, and he suddenly drank so much wine on an empty stomach, and the alcohol came too fast.

This drink was really intoxicating, I don't know who brought him back to the bedroom, and I don't know how many times he vomited, until he opened his eyes in a daze, it was completely dark.

It's past dinner time, everyone has dispersed, Ma Yunxiu's family is cleaning up and washing dishes in the stove, the entertainment room is playing cards, and the leisure room is watching videos as usual. Without him as the host, everyone still passed the banquet It was quite lively.

He walked downstairs weakly, sat quietly on the sofa in the living room, took the boiled water handed by Linglong and poured it vigorously, rubbing his swollen and painful temples from time to time, although his stomach was empty, he didn't want to eat anything, and couldn't eat anything.

It's been a long time since he's been so drunk, and he still feels very uncomfortable, but he doesn't regret it at all after drinking that big bowl of wine.

Picking up the phone, he dialed the number of the little police officer Zeng Yi, and asked indiscriminately: "Hey, why didn't you tell me?"

If he had been notified of the matter in advance, at least he would have been mentally prepared, and he would not have been in such a mess.

"Oh!" Zeng Yi suddenly realized, and said in a panic, "I'm sorry, I really wanted to tell you, but I was too busy, so I completely forgot about it."

Because he helped Wang Ben last time and sent two million to the villagers of Xiushui Bay, he had to deal with many villagers who came to inquire every day during this time. Because of this, he was severely criticized by the bureau. After a while, he also took a punishment.

"Hehe," smiled helplessly, Wang Ben didn't continue to blame, logically speaking, these are all things he tricked Zeng Yi, he should pay for it, if you want to blame, you can only blame the damn Ye Zirong, Mr. One day he will be punished.

I still had a splitting headache throughout the night, and it didn't get better until the next day. After breakfast the next day, with the help of the villagers, the tables were moved away one by one, and the washed dishes and chopsticks were returned to the villagers. Cleaning up for him again, a very lively birthday banquet finally came to an end.

Walking in the countryside, breathing in the refreshing fresh air, the body after drinking finally regained its vitality.

Unconsciously, when he came to the door of the villager Uncle Luo's house, Uncle Luo greeted him with a smile from afar: "Book, come and sit down."

After sitting for a few minutes and chatting comfortably for a while, we continued to wander around Xiushui Bay.

Next to Old Man Li's house, the pear tree was covered with attractive fruits. Old Man Li knocked down a few of them with a bamboo pole, handed them over enthusiastically, and said with a bright smile, "Book, come and eat the pears!"

He took it with a smile, took out one and wiped it on his clothes, and bit it wantonly like this, which seemed to have an incomparable aftertaste.

After more than a year of suffering, from then on, he could feel this incomparably simple joy again.
