Sam's Dream of Green Horizons Chapter 12

Today was a good harvest. We collected a lot of blueberries and walked out of the birch forest to the place where the fishing net was set. When we pulled the net up, more than 20 big crucian carps were struggling. Dean Li was very excited because it was his first time to catch fish, and he caught so many big fish.

Back at the mountain, we took out two crucian carps we had just caught and cooked them into a dish. In the wild mountains, tasting fresh crucian carps and drinking a few sips of the pure Liang Shao brewed by the locals was really a heavenly pleasure.

During the meal, my elder brother and Dean Li chatted while drinking. Of course, we couldn't help but talk about the customs and habits of people from all over the world. The feeling of fatigue soon disappeared. During the conversation, my elder brother said to Dean Li: "Dean, can you help to deal with the 2,000 yuan that the old dean of the hospital owes your niece for medicine?" I was very unhappy when I heard what my elder brother said. I thought to myself that Dean Li came to the mountains to relax because he was annoyed by the debt collectors without saying a word to me. 

At the same time, I was thinking how much money the former dean owed for medicine. It is not easy for my brother Li to be a leader. Dean Li said to my elder brother: "The hospital owed too much money for medicine in the past, and the old dean passed away. Our hospital has to pay these debts bit by bit! Brother, don't worry, we will take responsibility for these debts!"

After dinner, as it was getting late, Dean Li and I rode on a motorcycle along the rugged mountain road to the town. On the way, I said to Dean Li: "Brother Li! I'm really sorry, I didn't know about the debt between the hospital and my eldest brother's niece." Dean Li smiled and replied: "I wanted to hide in the mountains to avoid debt collectors, but I didn't expect that there would still be people demanding debts in the mountains!" I thought to myself that Dean Li and my principal Li had inherited a mess.
