Sixteen thousand?" Lin Chenfeng was stunned for a moment, then he tried hard to suppress his anger and said," Why are there so many? Did you borrow it from him later?"
" It's not that I want to borrow money," Lin Chenlei said with a sad face." It's because I owe him money, so he came to me when he needed help to play mahjong. I couldn't turn him down no matter what. As time went on, he borrowed more and more money.”
"Good, good. This is really a way to make money.”When Lin Chenfeng heard this, he could not help but sneer.
" Actually, there are many people like me in the village," Lin Chenlei said embarrassedly." There are also three people in our group. It's just that their families don't know the details.”
"Oh? Is there someone in our group like you?”Lin Chenfeng was stunned." Who are they?”
"Lin Zhonghua, Lin Faguo, and Lin Wanli all owe Lin Yi money.”Lin Chenlei said.
"Lin Wanli is also betting?" Lin Chenfeng said in surprise," He has gambled for more than ten times and he still has a family at home.”
It was no wonder that Lin Chenfeng was surprised. Lin Wanli was Lin Xiaoxue's father. He used to be an honest farmer. He didn't expect that he would like this now. Lin Xiaoxue was hesitant when she spoke yesterday. It must be because of this, right?
"He's even more addicted than me now. He can't even be bothered to go home and do things.”Lin Chenlei teased.
He poured out all the things that he had hidden in his heart. He felt much more relaxed, so he spoke more quickly. In fact, he had long wanted to tell Lin Jianan about these things, but he did not dare to, because he was afraid that his father would beat him half to death in a rage. Today, he told his brother, so he was no longer afraid.
Because he knew that in front of his father, only his eldest brother's words had the most influence. His eldest brother's attitude towards this matter basically determined his father's attitude towards this matter. Therefore, although he was hit twice today, he was secretly happy because it meant that his eldest brother would help him to cover up this matter when he returned home.
"Who else do you owe gambling debts to?”Lin Chenfeng frowned and thought for a while before turning to Lin Chenlei and asking.
" I don't owe him any gambling debts," Lin Chenlei looked at him guiltily, then said carefully," But I still owe someone 1,200 yuan."”
"You only owe money, not gambling debts?" Lin Chenfeng was amused by his words, so he teased," Then tell me, what's the difference between the two?”
" Of course there's a difference," Lin Chenlei muttered softly," As the saying goes, gambling depends on one's character. Those who owe money in the casino are all people with no taste. Therefore, every time I play cards, I always borrow enough money before gambling with others. I never go back on my word when I lose.”
When Lin Chenfeng heard this, he couldn't help but be moved. Although his twin brother's academic performance had always been bad, he was very bold. Otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to do so. In today's society, ability was an element of success, but it wasn't the decisive factor. Sometimes, courage and vision could determine a person's tools.
That was why some people said that in this era, those who were brave would die from over-exertion, and those who were timid would starve to death. Although Lin Chenlei did not have any outstanding talents, he had the courage. If he could guide him appropriately, he might be able to do something in the future!
Thinking of this, he patted Lin Chenlei's shoulder and said,""Chen Lei, I won't say anything else. I'll take responsibility for everything that happened in the past, but if you dare to touch the gambling table again, don't blame me for disowning you.”
" Brother..." Lin Chenlei's heart ached when he heard this. Tears almost rolled down his face. He choked on his sobs and said," Brother, I won't do this even if you beat me to death."”
Because he suddenly remembered a past event from his childhood. At that time, the two brothers went to the mountains to pick mushrooms. He was suddenly bitten by a snake, and Lin Chenfeng immediately sucked the poison for him. After that, he was fine, but Lin Chenfeng fell seriously ill. That scene was something that Lin Chenlei would never forget for the rest of his life.
Furthermore, Lin Chenfeng had been taking care of him in such a practical way for so many years. It was only because Lin Chenfeng was too brilliant that he, as his younger brother, seemed even more shabby. Therefore, he subconsciously had a confrontational mentality towards Lin Chenfeng. However, at this moment, he suddenly felt the deep brotherly love between them. At the critical moment, it was still best for an older brother!
Lin Chenfeng didn't know that his younger brother was feeling so much at that moment. He thought that his younger brother was only worried about the gambling debt. Hence, he glared at Lin Chenlei and said,""Why are you crying? It was just a small matter, what was there to worry about? As long as you don't gamble anymore, I'll settle this for you.”
" Brother, I'm not crying." Lin Chenlei quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. Then, he looked at Lin Chenfeng and smiled." Brother, how did you suddenly become so powerful?" Have you practiced some martial arts?"
" Uh, sort of," Lin Chenfeng answered ambiguously.
" Then you have to teach me a few things." Lin Chenlei shook his shoulder and said," Just like the hand that crushed the mahjong just now. That was so cool that even Lin Fei didn't dare to say anything.”
"And that slap, I think it's pretty cool too.”Lin Chenyu suddenly interrupted.
" Go away." Lin Chenlei glared at him, then waved his fist and said," You're asking for a beating again."”
Although he was obedient in front of Lin Chenfeng, he regained his vitality when facing Lin Chenyu. This was because in this family, Lin Chenyu was the only one who was under his control.
" It's easy for me to teach you." Lin Chenfeng glanced at him and said," From tomorrow onwards, you will stay at home and work. Then, every morning, you will tie a sandbag to chop a bundle of firewood. If you can persist for two months, I will teach you a set of boxing."”
"What? Tying sandbags? You still want to chop wood?" Lin Chenlei opened his mouth in shock.
"Yeah, if you're afraid of suffering, then forget it.”Lin Chenfeng said calmly.
"No, no, I'm not afraid of hardship. I tie sandbags and chop firewood.”Lin Chenlei quickly surrendered to him," But I want to ask, if I master my martial arts, how useful will it be?”
"Uh, maybe 30 to 50 catties more.”Lin Chenfeng said casually.
" You know I'm not talking about that," Lin Chenlei said angrily." I'm asking how many people you can beat at the same time."”
"Why? You practice martial arts just to fight?”Lin Chenfeng glanced at him.
" Of course," Lin Chenlei said righteously," As the saying goes, I won't attack unless I'm attacked. If I'm attacked, I'll definitely trample him under my feet and give him two slaps. So, I believe that although martial arts is not for fighting, fighting is necessary regardless of whether you practice martial arts or not.”
" Nonsense." Lin Chenfeng glared at him and said," I'm warning you first. If you use the martial arts I taught you to do bad things in the future, I'll skin you alive."”
"Brother, do I look like someone who does bad things?”Lin Chenlei said cheekily.
Lin Chenfeng couldn't be bothered with him. As he walked, he said,""If you practice your basic skills diligently, you can deal with three or four hooligans without weapons in the future. If you want to slack off, you might not even be able to defeat two people.”
"What? Really?" Lin Chenlei was overjoyed." Then what are the basics?”
" It's what you have to do for the next two months, tying sandbags and chopping firewood," Lin Chenfeng said calmly." Because no matter how good your tricks are, it's useless if your body is not strong enough.”
"But you…why haven't I seen you tying sandbags and chopping firewood?”Lin Chenlei asked suspiciously.
" I'm different from you. I can't explain this in a short time," Lin Chenfeng said vaguely." Anyway, it's up to you whether you want to practice or not. If you want to practice, I'll teach you well. If you don't want to practice, I won't force you."”
" Yes, of course," Lin Chenlei nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. But after a while, he suddenly slapped his thigh and said," Aiya, brother, are you lying to me? Two months from now, you'll be working in the county. How are you going to teach me kung fu?”
"Why would I lie to you?" Lin Chenfeng smiled and said," I'll be returning to the village in a few days. I'll be the assistant to the village director.”
" Tsk, that's impossible," Lin Chenlei said casually." You're a civil servant in the county, and you're working as the assistant to the director in the village. What kind of joke are you making? Don't think I don't understand. The village's cadre isn't even a national civil servant. Why should you take up a temporary position?”
