Chapter 100: Love

Views:

"We also want to get along well with our neighbors." Zhou Chengkang said in a serious tone, "I get along well with Min Rui who is behind me. In fact, we are two points closer than brothers."

"It's not our problem that we don't get along well with your family." Zhou Chengkang continued, "You owe so much money to the villagers, and we, the husband and wife, don't like borrowing money the most in our lives, and we don't like people asking us to borrow money. Talking about money hurts feelings, if you want to have a good relationship, it's best not to involve money."

But if the relationship is not good, he will not borrow money from others.

This is a knot, in fact, Yang's father probably has nothing else to do when he comes to the door except to borrow money. These words stopped him from borrowing money.

Father Yang was dumbfounded for a while, looked at Li Qinghe, and frowned slightly, "Speaking of which, Qinghe saved my son-in-law when you were not married. I remember that when Qinghe wanted to thank the gift, it was my daughter who paid for it... He glanced around the yard, "It seems that the land here was bought with that silver."

"That's right." Li Qinghe said calmly, she should have asked for a gift in the first place, she almost lost her life, saving Xu Changjie's life, asking for ten taels of silver is not much at all. As for the money paid by Yang Lanrou, that was her willingness, and it was not Li Qinghe who asked her for it.

"Did you save my son-in-law because you treated him..." Father Yang paused, "So you don't like my daughter, and you don't like to associate with our family."

The subconscious meaning is that Li Qinghe has not let go of it now, so he will hold grudges.

How much self-confidence does Yang's father have to think that his son-in-law is so good, worthy of being married and having children

"I said this not to ask you to pay back the ten taels of silver, but I just hope that you will look at the original incense..."

Zhou Chengkang interrupted him, "If we ask us to pay it back, we won't pay it back. We should take the money seriously, but we didn't blackmail it. Ten taels of silver buys our lives. Where can we find such a good thing? Besides, my wife paid me back later. I saved him once, but I haven’t given him a gift yet, I’ve been pretending to be stupid, the Xu family has a problem with their character, and they don’t know how to be grateful, so we don’t know their family well.”

How can people accept this

Father Yang was dumbfounded.

Zhou Chengkang was already impatient with him. In fact, the two of them were not allowed to enter the house, but when they came, someone happened to buy fish, so they entered the courtyard by the way, but the person who bought fish left, and the couple was here. chat.

Looking at this posture, it seems that it is not over.

"Don't!" Seeing that he was about to leave, Father Yang hurriedly said, "Actually, we came to ask for something."

"I know, borrow money." Zhou Chengkang replied, "Needless to say, our family doesn't have any. After paying so much wages, the family only has a few copper coins now."

"If it was normal, I wouldn't say that." Father Yang looked puzzled, "My son was originally a very good boy. The master said that he is very talented and intelligent, and he is very likely to be a scholar." But I didn't expect him to steal things last year... He didn't go out after that incident, maybe he was hit. After the spring of this year, I sent him to the county seat. The original intention was to let him try to take the county exam, but I did not expect… "

Li Qinghe looked at him suspiciously, and asked curiously, "Stealing again?"

Father Yang sighed, "He got addicted to gambling, lost all his money, ran to borrow interest, and borrowed ten taels, and the interest rate is now twenty taels. There is news from the county that if within ten days If it is less than thirty taels of silver, his hand will be cut off."

"As you know, a scholar's hands are the most important thing. If he has an illness, he can't study. He can't carry his shoulders and hands. If he doesn't have his hands, he's a useless person. You have also become parents, and your son touches it. In this kind of thing, I..." He wiped his face, his eyes were red.

Really... a prodigal son!

"But you're also embarrassing us when you come to our door." After hearing enough stories, Zhou Chengkang sighed, "Our family really has no money. If it was last year, we would still be able to give out ten taels, and we paid wages for the first two days."

If the fish was not stolen last year, and Father Yang went to the village to raise money like last year, he might be able to recover more than half of the twelve taels of wages he sent out, but now... the initial wages for building the house have not been paid yet. , not to mention the few taels of silver I borrowed in the village last year, which was so violent that I still haven't paid it back at all.

To Yang's father, a few taels of silver was nothing, but to the villagers, it was all the savings of the family. Now that they have lent it out but can't get it back, don't worry about regretting it.

There are lessons learned from the past, so now that Father Yang wants to borrow it again, almost no one in the village will agree.

Seeing off the Yang family and his wife, Li Qinghe was quite emotional. In fact, at the beginning, she didn't think the Yang family would be in ruins. After all, normal people would not dare to owe money to the villagers like that, would they

But in fact, Father Yang really does not itch when there are too many lice, and does not worry when there are too many debts. He owes so much money to others, and his family still lives a fine life with peace of mind. Mo is incomparable to the days before their family. But compared with these people in the village, it is a very good day.

It is typical to take other people's money and live a good life with peace of mind.

However, it is also coming to an end.

Within two days, I heard that Yang's father went to the county to pick up his son. After Li Qinghe heard about it, he couldn't help feeling that the Yang family had a strong foundation, and they knew how to pretend to be poor.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Yang Lanhong picked it up here, there would be a quarrel at the Xu family's side. It turned out that Xu Changjie stole his own savings bank and used it for his father-in-law to rescue his brother-in-law.

The Xu family has been very diligent these years. Xu Changjie had been working as a shopkeeper in the town earlier. The salary was good, and he had never spent it. Xu's mother would manage the house and save as much as she could. According to her, she saved more than twenty taels, all of which were money for Xu Changjie's younger siblings to get married, and also planned to build a few houses. In fact, many girls in the village secretly liked Xu Changjie, not only because of his good looks, but also because of his salary and the foundation of the Xu family.

Unexpectedly, he stole all the foundation of the Xu family and gave it to the Yang family this time.

The whole family of the Xu family came to the Yang family, insisting on forcing them to pay back the money.

Father Yang is in debt, how can he pay it off

Before the money was paid, Xu's mother was in a hurry, jumping on her feet and yelling, saying that Yang Lanrou was a vixen, a broom star, a disaster star, why marrying the Yang family was bad luck for eight lifetimes, and all kinds of ugly words came out.

Even though there was an acre of land in between, Li Qinghe still heard most of it, and felt a little refreshed in his heart, and he was in a good mood all day long.

In her previous life, Xu's mother had praised Yang Lanrou many times in front of her. She was gentle, courteous, and good-looking. The child she gave birth to must be good-looking. He also said that the Yang family's wealth did not pamper her, and that the decline of the Yang family was only temporary, and it would get better sooner or later. Seeing her quarreling with Xu Changjie because of Yang Lanrou, he even told her not to be narrow-minded.

Sure enough, people are compared. Now without her ignorant daughter-in-law, it turned out that Yang Lanrou was so unbearable in Xu's mother's eyes.

However, the only thing that remains the same is the deep relationship between Xu Changjie and Yang Lanrou. It really is true love to use all the money in the family to save the brother-in-law.

It's more real than Li Fu's feelings for Qian Shi!

No matter how much Li Fu liked the Qian family, he would not allow the money to help the Qian family and his brother-in-law. Seeing her in a daze, Zhou Chengkang asked, "What are you thinking?"

"It really is true love." Li Qinghe said casually.

Seeing her eyes, Zhou Chengkang immediately understood that she was talking about the neighbor, approached and asked with a low smile, "Am I not true to you?"

Hearing this, Li Qinghe couldn't help laughing, "We are different."

"Yes, it's different." He agreed, "I'm more true to you."

While talking, I saw Xi Yu running over not far away, "Mother, let's eat..."

Li Qinghe's eyes suddenly softened, and before he could respond, he saw Xi Yu slipped not far away, and sat down on the ground.

The backyard was never as flat as the front yard, and he was less than two years old, so he fell easily. She stepped forward to pull him up, and said with a smile, "Slow down, don't run, walk steadily..."

The child who had stood up and hadn't cried suddenly started crying, his whole face wrinkled into a bun shape, "Mom, I'm in pain..."

At first glance, it was fake crying, and there were no tears. Li Qinghe: "..." Does this brat dislike her nagging

He picked up the child and stuffed it into Zhou Chengkang's arms, "Father and son have the same virtues, and they both despise me for nagging."

"Not at all." Zhou Chengkang was serious, he carried the child who had stopped crying, caught up with her and walked beside her, "Just say what madam has to say, I will definitely remember it carefully, and never do it again!"

Li Qinghe couldn't help but chuckled, "Teach your son well, he despises his mother, it's okay, he won't run away yet."

Xi Yu said, "Don't dislike it, take care of yourself."

Zhou's mother should have said this to him. Li Qinghe wasn't really angry at all when he heard this. Be steady and have to wait.”

During the meal, listening to the yelling and cursing from the neighbor, Zhou's mother said, "The child from the Xu family used to be a clear-cut kid, but I didn't expect to be able to steal money from the family to subsidize the wife's family."

After a while, he said, "However, saving people is like putting out a fire. You can't just sit and watch my brother-in-law's hand being chopped off. After all, he is kind."

Zhou Chengkang couldn't take it anymore when Zhou's mother praised Xu Changhe, "How can you be so kind? If your son takes all your money..."

Before she finished speaking, Zhou's mother exploded, "How dare you!"

Zhou Chengkang spread his hands, "Then you still praise him for his kindness? How about I be kind too..."

Zhou's mother was dumbfounded and glared at her son. Comparing her heart to her heart, she actually understood Xu's mother's mood very well, and fed Xi Yu with a bowl, "Damn it, don't steal your mother's money when you grow up, or you will die of anger."

Li Qinghe and the two quietly looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

Xu's mother cursed for three days and jumped outside the Yang family's yard. In fact, her voice became hoarse that afternoon, and no one tried to persuade her. But I can only curse, the Yang family really can't afford the money.

When her voice became hoarse, Xu's mother cried, whimpered and cried for two days, and then she cursed a few more words when she remembered it. Finally, seeing that the Yang family was indifferent, she gritted her teeth and ran to the mayor's house to sue her son for money from the family.

Everyone who heard the news was dumbfounded. They didn't expect that Xu's mother would sue her own son when she became so ruthless!

It was a family matter, and the mayor didn't want to come, but Xu's mother threatened that if she didn't help resolve the matter, she would hang herself at the door of the mayor's house.

Reluctantly, the mayor had no choice but to send someone to arrest Xu Changjie, and asked the Xu family to redeem him with money. If the money was not found within five days, he would be handed over to the county government.

It would take two years to steal two hundred wen, and it would take at least ten or eight years to steal more than twenty taels.
