Chapter 144： bottomless pit

Ye Shu was cleaning the TV debris, and when he saw him, he smiled suddenly: "How do they pay for this TV?"

Kong Jie's face instantly darkened.

What can he say? Said he did not earn each other? Or did he admit that his sister broke the TV?

"Ni'er, tell the truth, did you make this TV?" Kong Jie closed the door and asked.

"No! Brother, her child did it! You don't believe me! I'll beat her up!" Connie threw the buns on the cleaned floor, stood up and rushed out.

"Stop for me!" Kong Jie roared, his face darkened.

Connie was a little scared, so she stopped obediently.

"Clean up the ground!" Kong Jie said solemnly.

Kong Ni turned her head to Ye Shu who was watching the play and said, "What about you! Clean the floor!"

Kong Jie raised his head angrily and roared, "I said what about you!"

"Oh..." Kong Ni dawdled over, took the broom in Ye Shu's hand, and scratched the ground.

The stuffing of the steamed buns was evenly spread on the ground, and after several times of sweeping, it didn't get into the tumbler. At first glance, the action was not a regular job.

"Before at home, who did the housework?" Kong Jie asked suddenly.

His mother kept telling him that Ye Shu didn't do anything at home, she was just a young lady who knew nothing, and she and Kong Ni did the housework.

He never doubted that when she first married Ye Shu, she really couldn't. He was doing all the work.

"Of course my mother and I were doing it!" Connie answered quickly and loudly, holding her broom.

"Heh." Ye Shu sneered back and sat on the chair: "Then you should wash the dishes today."

"Why should I brush?" Connie blurted out.

Ye Shu looked at Kong Jie and sneered again.

Kong Jie lowered his head, not daring to look at her.

"The downstairs said that your sister-in-law cooks for you every day?" Kong Jie asked again.

Kong Ni opened her mouth and whispered, "Sometimes she's lazy, so she just buys me a steamed bun to fool around. Besides, she's my sister-in-law, what's wrong with cooking for me?"

Kong Jie lowered his head even further. His mother said Ye Shu couldn't cook, and he believed it. Every time he comes home from vacation, it is his mother who cooks.

"The downstairs also said that you asked her children to come up to eat and drink every day, deliberately sabotaging?" Kong Jie asked.

"Say downstairs and say it downstairs! Why do you believe what you say downstairs! You're still not my brother! How can I have so many bad thoughts! Woohoo~" Connie cried and ran into her room, and threw it away Door.

"Haha." Ye Shu sneered again.

The house was completely quiet.

Suddenly, Ye Shu asked again: "This TV, don't you lose it?"

"Pay, pay, pay, how can you not pay?" Kong Jie sorted out his expression, sat next to Ye Shu, and said in a somewhat flattering voice, "Let's pay my aunt this TV."

"We pay?" Ye Shu turned to look at him: "Why should we pay? Your sister broke it, why should we pay?"

Kong Jie said a little embarrassedly, "She's still young, she's still a child, she doesn't have a family, and she has no source of income... We are brothers and sisters-in-law, so take more care."

"Heh." Ye Shu turned his eyes away and didn't want to look at him, and said blankly: "She is your sister, you should bear the burden of her troubles, you should, but don't add me, you have to pay for yourself."

"Okay!" Kong Jie immediately nodded and smiled. The daughter-in-law is still so good at talking, and she agrees with two sentences.

"Heh." Ye Shu just wanted to sneer today: "Do you know how much this 14-inch color TV costs?"

"How much? It's not cheap, right? I heard about one or two thousand." Kong Jie said, he had a little understanding of these.

"It was more than 2,000 when I bought it, but I've seen it for a few years. I'll give you a discount, 2,000." Ye Shu said.

In the 1970s, China had the first domestically produced color TV set, and Ye Fang bought it as soon as it was available.

"Okay! You can say as much as you want!" Kong Jie said happily.

"Heh." Ye Shu smiled again: "Kong Jie, I'll settle the account for you. When you first got married, you didn't have a penny in your hand. You've sent your salary for the past few years to your mother, right?"

Kong Jie suddenly thought of something, and the smile on his face disappeared.

Ye Shu turned to look at him, he nodded lightly: "Yes."

"In the first year after marriage, your salary is only 55 yuan, and you have to mail 30 yuan to your mother every month. You still have various expenses. In that year, you gave me a total of 130 yuan."

Kong Jie said nothing.

"You don't even remember these little things, and I don't care about them either." Ye Shu changed a more comfortable position and said, "But I have the habit of keeping accounts, my income, and every expense I have. If I buy a headband, I will keep the accounts, and the accounts at home are kept in the drawer by the bedside, you know?"

"I know..." Kong Jie said.

"But you've never opened it before, right?" Ye Shu sneered again after he finished speaking. I don't know if this person is disdainful or afraid to look at it.

Kong Jie didn't speak, Ye Shu got up and went into the room, actually took out a cowhide book, sat down and opened it again and said, "In the second year after your marriage, your salary has grown to 60, and you have to send 40 to your mother every month. In the second year, it was handed over to me for only 95 yuan. The third year..."

She even brought the ledger.... It was very clear in the sum of the sums. After so many years of marriage, Kong Jie gave her a total of more than 500 yuan.

"I don't care about the food, drink, clothes, and daily expenses that you spend on your mother and your sister. I just tell you how much cash and items your mother asked me to lend to them because your brothers were having a hard time. 2360 in cash and 3478 in item money, a total of 5838." Ye Shu said.

Kong Jie clenched his fist, is there so much...

"Although I earn more than ordinary people, it is limited. To be honest, I only have dozens of dollars left in my pocket. I can't fill the bottomless hole in your family." Ye Shu said.

Kong Jie clenched his fist tightly, his face turned black and red, red and black.

Ye Shu thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he said, "It's okay if you want me to go home and continue living with you, but you have to pay me back the money you owe me first.

"Those cash and appliances, I didn't give you two brothers for nothing. Your mother kept saying that it was lent to them, and the brothers clearly settled the accounts. Everyone got married and started their own lives, and didn't let one brother support the others. The truth of a brother and a family. This is what your mother said.

"She also wrote me an IOU, but there was only one. It was given to me by your mother when she first asked to borrow money, saying that it was written by your brother. Later, she stopped mentioning the IOU a few times. I think With a family, can you still rely on my account? I don't care what she wants.

"Go give me the money now and ask for it back." Ye Shu took out a piece of paper from his notebook and photographed it in front of Kong Jie.

The crooked words on it are indeed the words of the eldest brother, and it says to borrow 500 yuan.

Kong Jie was silent.

"Oh, she doesn't necessarily accept the account now." Ye Shu said, "But it doesn't matter, you go back to your hometown to have a look. I heard that your two brothers have built 5 large brick houses with complete appliances. Ask them. What did you pay for it?"
