Chapter 8

Lin Xiaofan's hometown is in the countryside of a small fourth-tier county in the north.There is a vegetable garden in his home, where his mother grows all kinds of vegetables and picks ripe vegetables every day to sell in the city.

Lin Xiaofan's father died when he was just in high school.His father fell ill from overwork and became seriously ill. He spent a lot of money but failed to cure it. It was at that time that the family borrowed a lot of money.

His academic performance was very mediocre, but since his father passed away, he studied hard and was finally admitted to Jinjiang University, a key university.

At this time, on a fast-moving train, Lin Xiaofan was searching for new plane chat groups on his mobile phone.

After he grabbed the ruby ​​red envelope in the monster chat group yesterday, he entered a new chat group.As a result, I have been lurking until now, and was accidentally discovered by a group member, and was kicked out of the group.

"It's okay to be kicked out. Anyway, there are plane chat groups, and I can keep searching for new chat groups. There are countless chat groups on thousands of planes, all of which are waiting for me to grab red envelopes. I want to grab every one of them. hey-hey……"

Lin Xiaofan, who has set a "great" ideal, clicks on the search function.

After a while, the plane chat group searched for a new group.

System prompt: I found the chat group "Those years we learned together", do you want to join?

Seeing this name, Lin Xiaofan was stunned for a second, and then an incredible guess appeared in his mind: Could this group be related to Journey to the West?

In his memory, the only thing related to Buddhist scriptures is the Buddhist scripture team in Journey to the West.

An uncontrollable excitement welled up in Lin Xiaofan's heart. If he guessed correctly, there would be his idol in this chat group—Sun Wukong, Monkey King.

Lin Xiaofan clicked "Join the chat group" with trembling hands, and secretly observed in the group.

He saw the name at a glance: Fighting and defeating Buddha-Sun Wukong.Sure enough, this group is the famous "Journey to the West" scripture learning group in the legend!

"Hahaha, I didn't expect it to be this group."

Lin Xiaofan couldn't help laughing out loud, and when he noticed the gazes from the people around him, he realized that he had lost his composure, so he quickly stopped laughing.

Lin Xiaofan continued to observe the scripture learning group, and the group business cards of the others were:

Zhan Tan Gongde Buddha——Tang Sanzang
Messenger of the Purification Altar——Zhu Bajie
Golden Arhat - Sha Wujing
Eight Heavenly Dragons - Ao Lie

Lin Xiaofan knew that these titles were conferred by the Buddha after they obtained the scriptures and became Buddhas.

There were originally only five people in this group, but now there is one more Lin Xiaofan, which is very abrupt.If it was another group, Lin Xiaofan had already left the group, and red envelopes rarely appeared in chat groups with few people, and he was easy to be found.

Just like now, there were originally five group members, but now there is one more, which is too obvious.

But this time, Lin Xiaofan will not quit the group, because this is a group for learning Buddhist scriptures from Journey to the West. In the group, there are Monkey King, Tang Sanzang, and Zhu Bajie...

Not to mention that Monkey King is Lin Xiaofan's idol, just their status as immortals and Buddhas is enough for Lin Xiaofan to give it a try.

"They are all gods. If they are lucky enough to grab a red envelope, they will really be prosperous."

Lin Xiaofan fantasizes about grabbing some kind of artifact, so that he can walk sideways on the earth.

The group was very quiet at the moment, no one was chatting, and no one noticed Lin Xiaofan suddenly appearing in the group.

He was in a conflicted mood. He hoped that no one would find him and not be kicked out of the group, but he also hoped that they would quickly chat and give out red envelopes.

After being anxious for a long time, Lin Xiaofan calmed down.

"It's useless to worry, let's resign ourselves to fate."

After setting up group message reminders and red envelope reminders, Lin Xiaofan opened the Qidian app on his phone and started reading novels.

----

"It's been dragging on for a few years, and you still haven't paid back the money?"

Wu Yaru: "Sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, I will definitely pay back the money owed to you, but the family's income is limited, so I can only pay you back slowly, please wait a little longer."

"Wait? We've been waiting for several years, and we haven't paid it off yet. When do you want us to wait? Just today, right now, we must pay back the money!"

Wu Yaru was so anxious that tears were about to flow down: "Sister-in-law, please don't rush, I only have this five thousand, you take it first. You know our family's situation, it is really difficult. We are a family and can help Let us help."

"Hmph, family, who is your family? If your family has difficulties, ours will not? My son is getting married soon, and buying a house, buying a car and having a baby, which one doesn't cost money?"

"That's right, let your son Xiaofan go to college if you have difficulties? If you let him go out to work, not to mention saving tuition fees, he can still earn a lot in a year."

"..."

Ugly words kept coming, Wu Yaru could only endure silently, and at the same time, begged them to give them some more time.

----

"finally arrived at home!"

After several hours of train rides and several bus transfers, Lin Xiaofan finally arrived at his hometown village.After sitting in the car for so long, his butt hurts.

"Phew, the air in the village is better."

Taking a deep breath, feeling the familiar atmosphere from his hometown, Lin Xiaofan stretched, feeling at ease.

He had just entered the village, and within a few steps, he ran into an acquaintance.

"Xiaofan, are you back from vacation?"

The one who spoke was Zhang Chongshan, an uncle in his 40s, who had a good relationship with Lin Xiaofan's father. After his father passed away, Zhang Chongshan often took care of their family.

Lin Xiaofan: "Well, it's summer vacation. Uncle Zhang, how are you doing recently?"

Zhang Chongshan's family contracted dozens of acres of orchards, and he worked in the orchard for a long time, and his back suffered from the root of the disease.

"It's okay. I've been recuperating for a while, and my health is much better. Well, you, forget it, you'd better go home." Zhang Chongshan's hesitant expression made Lin Xiaofan confused.

"Uncle Zhang, what's wrong with my family?" Lin Xiaofan asked anxiously.

Zhang Chongshan: "It's nothing, I just saw your two aunts go to your house."

not good!Lin Xiaofan hurriedly trotted to his home. He knew his two aunts very well, and their words were ugly, but his mother had a strong self-esteem and couldn't listen to other people's ugly words.

Sure enough, as soon as Lin Xiaofan walked to the door of the house, he heard the harsh voices of his two aunts yelling in the room:

"Ask your son Xiaofan to go to college when you have difficulties? If you let him go out to work, not to mention saving tuition fees, he can still earn a lot in a year."

When Lin Xiaofan heard what the two aunts said, he became angry. If his uncle and second uncle were here, they would definitely not talk like this.

Uncle Lin Xiaofan works in the county office, and the second uncle runs a small supermarket in the county.When Lin Xiaofan's father was ill, they borrowed most of the money.

Lin Xiaofan's father and they are brothers after all, and they don't know what to say, but Lin Xiaofan's two aunts are different.

Pushing open the door, Lin Xiaofan rushed into the room, at this moment his mother was wiping her tears with her head down.

"Auntie, what are you doing! Don't you just owe you some money, and it's not like you won't pay it back. Are you urging for your life? After all, we are a family, so can't you be more polite?"

The eldest aunt: "How do you talk, a child, we are your elders."

elder?I'm afraid you have never regarded me as a junior.Lin Xiaofan was very disdainful of what the aunt said.

Second aunt: "We owe us some money? To put it lightly, it adds up to 15 yuan. When will you pay it off?"

Lin Xiaofan: "Now, I will pay you back now. What is the account number, tell me your bank account number."

The auntie looked at Lin Xiaofan in disbelief: "You mean to pay us back now? Is it all the money, not thousands of dollars?"

"Of course it's all. You give me your bank account number, and I will transfer the money to you now."

Second Aunt: "Where do you get so much money? You can't lie to us."

"I'll know if I lied to you in a while."

Lin Xiaofan didn't want to explain too much, and let the facts speak for themselves.

The two aunts dubiously told Lin Xiaofan the bank account number. Lin Xiaofan took out his mobile phone and transferred all the money owed to the two through online bank transfer.One is 15, the other is [-], a total of [-].

Soon, the two received a bank account reminder.Looking at the text message notification, the two couldn't believe it. The money owed to them for several years was so easily repaid?You must know that it took a few months to return them thousands of dollars.

Although they received the money, the two were not very happy.

In the past, I could come to collect debts from time to time, vent my emotions, and show off my sense of superiority, but now I can't.

Lin Xiaofan: "The two aunts are still not leaving? Stay here and wait for me to treat you to tea?"

The two looked at Lin Xiaofan, and could only turn around and leave. Now Lin Xiaofan owed them nothing.

Huh—— Lin Xiaofan took a long breath.While feeling happy in his heart, he also felt a sense of relief. The mountain that had been pressing on him had finally disappeared.

"Mom, calm down, they are poisonous, don't be as knowledgeable as them."

What surprised Wu Yaru at this time was that Lin Xiaofan paid back the money: "Where did you get so much money? This is 15, you must have done something illegal. Listen to my mother, hurry up and surrender, there is still time."

Lin Xiaofan: "Mom, don't you believe me? Don't worry, I definitely don't dare to do illegal things. This money was earned by me and my friend starting a business, so don't ask, because you don't understand."

"Okay, okay, I don't ask, you're doing well now." Wu Yaru smiled, "Xiaofan, after such a long journey, you're hungry, I'll cook for you now."

 Please recommend tickets, thank you!
