General, the lady escaped again

Chapter 899: Borrowing but Not Returning (1)

"Now my embroidery shop is in trouble because I have no embroiderer. Could you please return some of the money I lent you before to help me get through this period?" Zhao Yang said with a smile.

"I told you that nothing good would happen if you came here. When did I borrow money from you? Is there a promissory note? There's no signature on it. It's obvious that you gave us the money out of pity. When did we ever say we wanted to borrow it? You're so funny! My family has no money! I've never borrowed money from you! Stop blackmailing me!" Aunt Wang said coldly, and pushed Zhao Yang hard. Zhao Yang staggered and almost fell.

He looked at Aunt Wang in astonishment. Over the years, he had borrowed money for all the weddings and funerals in her family, and even for her grandson's schooling!

Now, without any proof, she is denying her promise?

Zhao Yang didn't say a word and went to several other neighbors' homes. The same words were used again to push him out and he was turned away.

The smile on Zhao Yang's face collapsed and he walked back home in a daze. Before entering the house, he heard Aunt Wang next door laughing at him.

"What kind of person is this? In all these years, when have I ever asked him to borrow money? It's really funny. His embroidery shop has such a big incident. He must be guilty of hiring such a person. He must have a problem with his character. Really, he asked for money as soon as he opened his mouth. Who owes him money?..."

Zhao Yang walked back home in a daze. When the woman saw Zhao Yang's appearance, she knew that the blow he suffered today directly shattered his pride and complacency over the years.

He thought that since he had helped so many people, everyone would definitely help him when he was in trouble, but the reality gave him a hard slap in the face.

Over the years, he has never written an IOU when lending money to these neighbors. His wife has quarreled with him countless times because of this, but he still thinks she is making trouble. They are all neighbors, how can she ask for an IOU? How sad is this?

Now he was suddenly a little confused. After he came to his senses, he finally understood why his wife insisted on asking for the IOU, but he had rejected her.

"Xiaohua! Have I done everything wrong all these years..." Zhao Yang wanted to cry but had no tears. He looked at his wife, looking at her hurt.

"Now do you know why I insisted on them writing an IOU?" The woman looked at Zhao Yang and sighed. "An IOU is a debt and also a proof. When you borrowed it, they were of course happy to have it, but if you want them to return it, why would they give it to you?"

"You always say I'm overbearing, I'm bad, and I'm inhumane. Can you use these words to ask them to return their money?" The woman said seriously. "Why do they hate me? Because they think I'm a hindrance to them."

"How many times have you quarreled with me over them over the years! Look at them now, they avoid you like snakes and scorpions. This is the consequence of your kindness over the years. They treat you as a fat sheep, use your money to support their families, and have no intention of returning it to you." The woman looked at Zhao Yang. "And if you hadn't discovered this, you would never have seen their true colors."

"Because every time you ask them to pay you back, they will just talk about how difficult and sad their family is, and you will become a good person and lend them money." The woman became calmer and calmer as she spoke, but Zhao Yang became more and more flustered as he listened.

It felt like his wife was going to leave him at any moment.

Zhao Yang held his wife's hand tightly, his eyes full of regret and hurt. "Xiaohua, you have always known that you would rather be the bad guy all these years. After suffering so much injustice, I still have to quarrel with you and blame you..."
