The Soul Reborn

The Soul Reborn
11. Guarantee Letter



As soon as Shen Dongyuan opened the door, he saw Zhu Haimei sitting on a folding chair. The woman is seen holding a pen and writing something in a book. Zhu Haimei can write? Shen Dongyuan thought in astonishment.


Zhu Haimei quickly stood up when he heard the sound of the door opening. "Have you come home?"


Shen Dongyuan could immediately see Zhu Haimei's swollen and reddened forehead. Feeling uncomfortable after seeing this, Shen Dongyuan turned around and walked towards his room. He could not even say a word of apology to Zhu Haimei.


But Zhu Haimei hurriedly stopped the man. "Shen Dongyuan, I want to discuss something with you."


Shen Dongyuan stopped and frowned. "What's wrong?"


"I want to borrow 30 yuan from you."


"30 yuan? What else do you want to do?" Shen Dongyuan asked as he tried to contain his anger.


"Don't misunderstand me first." Said Zhu Haimei who then tried to explain quickly. "I want to do a small business."


Shen Dongyuan replied. "I have no money, don't borrow money from me. Stop thinking of evil ideas by saying you want to open a business."


Zhu Haimei became very angry after hearing the remark just now, but he held her back and said, "I will write a letter of guarantee. I really want to borrow money from you. I can write a letter of guarantee and will return your money in 10 days. If I can't return it, I'll return to my hometown voluntarily."


Shen Dongyuan's heart was slightly moved after hearing Zhu Haimei's words just now. Was it true that Zhu Haimei could return the money within ten days?


"Are you going to keep your promise?"Ask Shen Dongyuan. He really did not want Zhu Haimei to stay here. Ever since Zhu Haimei came Shen Dongyuan became the laughingstock of his friends. If using 30 yuan alone could make Zhu Haimei return to his hometown, he did not mind lending it.


Zhu Haimei sighed in his heart. Oh real body owner, why do you like men who hate you? Thought Zhu Haimei. He then looked at Shen Dongyuan and said, "I told you, I can write his guarantee letter." Zhu Haimei then leaned over and tore a piece of paper from his notebook and gave it to Shen Dongyuan. "Now, I give it to you."


Shen Dongyuan took the paper. He was surprised to read it. "I am Zhu Haimei, borrow thirty yuan on Shen Dongyuan and will return it within ten days. If I can't return it, I'll go back to my hometown right then and there." Under the letter of agreement there was even Zhu Haimei's signature. Shen Dongyuan was not only shocked because his sentence was well written and clear, but also because of his neat and beautiful writing. This writing is very well written, even Shen Dongyuan who is a high school graduate can not write as well.


"Are you really writing this yourself?" Shen Dongyuan asked hesitantly.


Zhu Haimei replied. "Should I stick fingerprints too?"


Shen Dongyuan's eyes flickered. "no need. If you cannot return my money until the deadline, you must keep your promise. You can do business as long as you don't steal, kidnap or commit unlawful crimes."


Shen Dongyuan. This time he wanted to trust Zhu Haimei.


Zhu Haimei was slightly offended at the sentence just now, but he still held back his emotions from still having to borrow money from Shen Dongyuan.


"Wait here." Shen Dongyuan said and left the house.


Not long after, he returned with the money in his hand. Shen Dongyuan then went into his room, but then he came out again and handed the money to Zhu Haimei. "Thirty yuan, count it. But you have to take responsibility for your bail and go home voluntarily if you can't return it within ten days." Shen Dongyuan.


Upon hearing the sentence, there was a bitterness in Zhu Haimei's heart that could not be expressed in words. Why would a young girl from the 21st century like herself, still have to accept this cruel treatment? Maybe it was because he could endure it. If only someone else had been reborn like this, perhaps that person would have been depressed and had died by suicide from the start.


Zhu Haimei then took the money from Shen Dongyuan's hands and said, "Thank you." He then encouraged himself with the words of Mencius: If God wanted to impose heavy responsibilities on a person, he would first make him depressed and tired, starve him, make him weak, and make him weak, and make every action unsatisfactory, so that the person turns to be persistent and improve all his abilities.


Now Zhu Haimei will only assume that God is testing him.


After he went to the owner's aunt's place to remove the gas canister, Zhu Haimei then put it on top of the goods trolley and went to fill the gas. The road that aunt said could be taken within an hour of commuting it should be occupied longer.


Zhu Haimei had a fat body and the weather was currently extremely hot. Moreover, he had to walk on paved roads. Zhu Haimei only hoped that he would not melt. After filling up the gas and walking home, all of his energy seemed to be drained away. He really did not know why the body of the original owner was so fat. As he left, the trip only took an hour, but it was unexpected that it took him two and a half hours to return.


By the time he returned home to the military, it was dark. He drowned in bed and didn't move a bit.


His body was sweating, the side of the shoulder he used to pull the trolley was very painful, his stomach was also very hungry to the point of sounding. "Oh my God, who will save me?" But tonight, he did not hear Shen Dongyuan's voice come home until he fell asleep. He did not know what Shen Dongyuan was doing.


The next day Zhu Haimei woke up early in the morning because the aunt said that today was 'market day'. So what if today he tried to shop?


Zhu Haimei felt that he had arrived earlier, but there were already many people gathered there. He bought two pans, two buckets, six basins, one serving of white rice and one fried vegetable. Zhu Haimei almost spent 10 yuan to buy 2 pots. Then he also bought rice and flour, vegetable oils, spices and vegetables. And finally, he returned to his small house to put the items and went again to buy other items. After buying, the money is now 0.4 yuan.


If his business fails, he must eventually return to his hometown.


But Zhu Haimei did not want to think about it right now. He began to take water, cook rice in a large pot and began to wash and cut vegetables. Today was his first day of selling, so he did not dare to prepare too many dishes for sale. He cooked two cold dishes namely Mazhidoujiao (Long bean salad with peanut sauce) and Huangguafensi (salad from a mixture of cucumber and tomato) in his small house. When the rice is ripe, he put it in a large basin and then take the cut vegetables to fry at the place of sale and then pack the gas canisters well. Not feeling the time has shown at eleven, Zhu Haimei also went to the construction site to start selling.


While pulling his trolley, Zhu Haimei felt extremely nervous and excited. If his efforts are successful, perhaps this is the starting point for his new life. But what if it fails? He did not dare to imagine it. The courage to start again is not owned by everyone.


Fortunately, the distance of the construction site from his home in Shangshui Village was very close. At least he didn't have to walk that far with his shoulder still hurting. But looking near the bus stop sign there were some people waiting for the bus, Zhu Haimei suddenly did not dare to walk forward.


"Miss, are you no longer able to pull it? Let me help you."


The sound of an uncle approaching.


Zhu Haimei quickly turned his head and said, "Thank you, uncle."


"Well, you bring pots, pans and so on. Are you going to sell food here?"


"Oh, uncle knows yes. I don't have a job, so I'm thinking of doing something." Zhu Haimei replied with a hint of embarrassment.


The middle-aged uncle raised his thumb and said, "Miss, you are so great. I think you can sell there. There are a lot of people coming in and out of there. I'll announce to people that you're selling there."


"Oh!" Zhu Haimei screeched in surprise. The place that the uncle pointed at was the place where he saw many people resting yesterday. It was about ten meters away from the gate of the construction site. There was an empty place that looked clean.


Now Zhu Haimei felt his luck was really good.


Once out of the house he met a noble hearted person like this uncle. Zhu Haimei was confident that this business would definitely succeed.


"Let's go, let's go. I'll help you. Come on over here."


Zhu Haimei was moved until his tears almost dripped. In these two days, uncle's words just now were the most beautiful words he had ever heard.
