Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 1826: Chapter 1825: Debt Repayment

The words ”little bastard” made An Hao’s heart burn with rage: ”Second uncle, don’t worry! They say good people don’t live long, but the troublesome ones last a thousand years! So, you’re still alive!”

”You! Are you trying to anger me to death?” An Baoguo got agitated, clutching his chest and coughing violently.

”Good girl, say a little less! Your second uncle’s condition has just started getting better.” An Shuchao softly advised An Hao.

An Hao frowned and glanced at An Baoguo: ”He doesn’t look like someone with a terminal illness at all! Look at his rosy face, how many terminally ill patients have such a good complexion?”

”That’s right. I bet after all the eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling outside, he’s run out of options, so he thought of coming home to hide?” An Ping indeed hit the nail on the head.

”Big brother! Are you going to take care of these two kids or not? As a second uncle, I’ve ended up being such a failure, with no dignity...” After saying this, An Baoguo hugged An Shuchao and started crying with snot and tears.

”Alright, alright, both of you, stop mocking your second uncle. His days haven’t been easy!” Although his brother is a jerk, they are blood siblings; he can’t just stand by.

Otherwise, what’s the difference between him and a heartless beast?

”Not easy?” An Hao frowned, ”Have our days been easy these past years? How much suffering and hardship we endured to have the life we have today. He came back and brought all those debt collectors to our doorstep! Second uncle, I’m really not belittling you, but if you have the ability, solve it yourself and stop coming back to harm others!”

”Exactly, exactly!” An Ping echoed.

”Heartless! Heartless! If I weren’t driven into a corner, would I come back? If my body were still strong, I would go out and earn a living myself; I definitely wouldn’t need big brother to pay off my debts!” An Baoguo passionately argued, banging the table.

”Alright, Baoguo, the children’s words are unpleasant, but they are not wrong! You’re not young anymore and are living life worse than the kids! Now that you’re back, I, as your elder brother, definitely won’t let you starve! I’m only asking you, please settle down a bit in the future! Live a good life, and stop wandering off madly day and night, alright?” An Shuchao said.

”Alright!” An Baoguo agreed wholeheartedly, ”But, brother, shouldn’t you also help me solve the problems in front of me? Otherwise, I won’t be able to live peacefully.”

”Are you talking about the debt issue?”

”Yes, yes!” An Baoguo nodded quickly, ”Brother, if you help me clear all the debts, I will live well. Otherwise, if my debts aren’t cleared, those people will kill me!”

An Shuchao felt very heartbroken, but there was no way around it.

His own brother’s life and debts, which is more important?

The answer is clear.

”Alright! Alright! I’ll repay your debts!” An Shuchao said, gritting his teeth.

”Thank you, brother! Thank you, big brother!” An Baoguo was so excited he almost knelt down to kowtow in gratitude to his brother.

An Hao saw her father’s compassion was about to overflow again, and angrily blocked him: ”Dad, I think you should first find out exactly how much debt he owes before promising anything! Otherwise, you might end up unable to clear the debts and drag yourself down too!”

”Yeah! How much debt?” An Ping asked.

”Can’t I keep that from you guys?” An Baoguo pursed his lips, ”I just want to discuss this with my brother!”
