Chapter 160 Cat 3
Hearing the knock on the door, A'rui, who was dozing by the window, suddenly opened his eyes, then slipped in through the gap in the window and squatted in a secluded place.

If you don't look carefully, it would be hard to notice that there is a cat in the living room.

"I don't know who is knocking on the door early in the morning." Wei Jianhua's voice came from the room, accompanied by the sound of someone getting up, getting dressed, and walking outside in slippers. Then, the door of the room opened.

It was Jiang Yingfeng who came out: "I'll go see who it is."

Their son and daughter-in-law have the key here, so there should be no need to knock on the door. He wondered who it was, but soon he understood. Could it be his eldest brother? Thinking of what the other party might come here for, Jiang Yingfeng couldn't help but sigh and walked out.

"Then I'll get up too," Wei Jianhua's voice came from behind, "Could it be Big Brother?"

"Just go and take a look and you'll know," said Jiang Yingfeng.

Wei Jianhua muttered, "If it's him, he must be here to borrow money. He didn't pay it back the last few times. If your big brother really can't make ends meet, you should help him in any way you can, but he's borrowing money to fill a bottomless pit. Old Jiang, you can't lend him money this time no matter what. It's because we have something to borrow that Jiang Wang feels that he has someone to back him up, so he doesn't learn his lesson, pretends to be a good boy for a while, and then goes back to gambling."

"Well, we won't lend it this time. If it really is my eldest brother, I will persuade him again to stop guaranteeing Jiang Wang." As Jiang Yingfeng spoke, he had already reached the door and opened it.

The person outside was indeed his elder brother Jiang Yingshan, who was seventy years old, only about four years older than him. He looked much older than him and was very skinny.

"Brother, why so early?"

"Come in quickly. You haven't had breakfast yet? We can eat together later." Jiang Yingfeng pulled him in. "Let's go downstairs. The breakfast shop downstairs is delicious."

Jiang Yingshan gave an awkward smile, clasped his hands uncomfortably, and walked into the clean house, not knowing where to put his feet.

He was not as capable as his younger brother. He did not dare to go to the city at first, so he guarded the one-third acre of land in the village. Now, he is still guarding the one-third acre of land, and the gap between him and his younger brother is getting bigger and bigger. As the eldest brother, he is not as successful as his younger brother, which makes him feel inferior.

If Awang had not been really helpless, he would never have asked his brother to borrow a penny.

Before Awang got into trouble, he never thought of taking advantage of his brother, as he felt that it was shameless.

Wei Jianhua had already put on his clothes and poured a glass of water for Jiang Yingshan: "Brother, have you had breakfast? Drink a glass of water first, we will go downstairs to eat soon."

"No more eating." Jiang Yingshan said quickly, holding the cup and taking a sip, he looked at Wei Jianhua, then at Jiang Yingfeng, and said with some difficulty, "I came here this morning mainly to borrow some money from you."

He also knew that he had come to borrow money several times, but he only had one son, Awang, and he couldn't just ignore him.

Jiang Yingfeng and Wei Jianhua looked at each other. They had guessed it before, and it was true. They felt somewhat helpless.

Jiang Yingfeng sat aside and said, "Brother, it's not that I don't want to help you, but Jiang Wang's situation has happened several times, and he never changes. How much can you cover for him? We are not particularly rich, and we can't go bankrupt for him, right? The first time, you came to borrow 30,000, and I lent it to you without saying a word. The second time, you came to borrow 100,000, and I lent it to you too, thinking that we are brothers and should help each other."

"Last month, you came to borrow two hundred thousand."

"Brother, to be honest, if you really have any problems, I, as your younger brother, will definitely try my best to help you. However, Jiang Wang has not changed his ways. He paid off his debts and soon owed them again. If he continues like this, our family will be ruined. This time, I will not lend you money again no matter what you say."

"If you have nothing to eat in the future, I, as your younger brother, will take care of you, and you don't have to worry about what will happen after your death. As for Jiang Wang, just let him go and ignore him, okay? Maybe if you ignore him, he will learn his lesson and really change." Jiang Yingshan buried his head in silence.

Jiang Yingfeng sighed and said to Wei Jianhua, "Jianhua, go buy some breakfast and bring it back to eat today."

Wei Jianhua said, "Okay."

"Second brother, I only have this one son." After Wei Jianhua left, Jiang Yingshan raised his head, his eyes reddened, and he kept wiping his eyes. "If I don't take care of him, who will? Just borrow it this time, okay? I won't come here in the future. If Awang has any problems, I will find a way myself."

Jiang Yingfeng shook his head: "Brother, I can't promise you this time. The total amount is hundreds of thousands, which is already beyond our family's ability to bear. The amount you want to borrow this time is probably not small, right?"

Jiang Yingshan clenched his hands: "I promise, this is really the last time."

"Second brother, this is the last three hundred thousand. I will never look for you again. Even if Awang dies out there, I will not bother you again."

"Lost another three hundred thousand?" Jiang Yingfeng asked.

Jiang Yingshan nodded quickly: "They said that if Awang doesn't pay back the money, they will come over and chop off his fingers when the time comes. Second brother, I can't just ignore it!"

"Then let them chop it off." Jiang Yingfeng said cruelly, "If he loses one finger, maybe he'll learn a lesson and won't dare to do it again."

Jiang Yingshan grabbed Jiang Yingfeng and shook his head: "No, Awang hasn't even gotten married yet. If he loses a finger, he'll be disabled. Which girl will be willing to follow him in the future?"

"Second brother, please lend me this three hundred thousand. It's really just this once. I will take good care of Awang in the future."

"Why don't we call the police?" Jiang Yingfeng suggested. "It's definitely wrong for them to threaten me with violence like this. Besides, the amount of money involved in gambling is too large. It's definitely illegal..."

"Then Awang will have to go to jail? No, if that happens, Awang will really be finished." Jiang Yingshan immediately denied it and decided not to call the police.

Jiang Yingfeng was somewhat helpless, but this time he was determined not to give in no matter what Jiang Yingshan said. Looking at Jiang Yingshan's desperate eyes, he felt a little uncomfortable, but if he didn't make up his mind, his whole family would be dragged down.

He had done his best for his brother, and he didn't owe him anything. He was willing to lend money because they were brothers, but he didn't know it was a bottomless pit.

Seeing that Jiang Yingfeng really didn't want to lend him the money, Jiang Yingshan stood up with great disappointment: "Then...then I'll leave first. I'll go back and sell the things at home to see how much I can get."

When Wei Jianhua came back, he met Jiang Yingshan who was going out. He greeted him and asked him to have breakfast, but he just shook his head and walked out.

"It's okay if you don't lend it. If you have less food to eat in the future, we won't ignore it," said Wei Jianhua.

Jiang Yingfeng sat there, feeling a little uncomfortable, and suddenly asked, "Did you buy it for Chengle and the others?"

"How could I forget my own son?" Wei Jianhua rolled his eyes at him. "I've already taken it. They're going out to play today, so they're all up."

Jiang Yingshan did not leave. He sat in a corner downstairs, smoking and thinking about what to do.
