"What's the matter with you?" Jiang Zhen asked again, he has never been patient with others, unless that person is Zhao Jinge.
"Boss Jiang, can you help me? My father owes that Liu Heitou money, and he won't let our family go." He Qiusheng said, his head lowered, thinking of his parents' request, he felt a little bit embarrassing.
He didn't want to rob someone else's man, and he didn't think he could. As for being a kid...
He used to think that as long as the man who proposed the marriage was rich, it would be okay if he was older, or if he wanted to marry him to fill in the house, but not if he was young.
In this Hexi Village, even Zhao Dahu has a daughter-in-law, but there are not many people in the county who take concubines. He has heard people say that those concubines in the county have a very difficult life.
It's just... If you want Jiang Zhen to help, you have to pay a little price, right? Apart from him, there is nothing else in their family.
He Qiusheng had all kinds of thoughts in his heart, and was thinking about what to do next when he heard Jiang Zhen say decisively, "No help."
When Liu Heitou was about to kidnap He Qiusheng, Jiang Zhen took action, because he felt that it was not good for He Qiusheng to be taken away and spoiled as a minor.
But he didn't help He Qiusheng to get ahead and let Liu Heitou settle the accounts. Even if it was a matter of his words at the time, he didn't need to take out the money.
And there is a reason for this.
Regardless of whether it was deliberately designed by Liu Heitou, it is a fact that He Qiusheng's father borrowed money, not forced by others. He has no position to let people wipe the account.
Moreover, he gave Liu Heitou a face in this way. Even if Liu Heitou was beaten, he would not come to trouble him if he found that he was not easy to deal with, but if he had to make an inch, he would have to help the He family... That Liu Heitou There is also a vote of people underneath, and they always have a way to make trouble for him.
Of course, there was another reason why he did that, because he didn't want to be entangled by He Qiusheng's father.
This kind of person who knows that his family has no money and still borrows and gambles everywhere has always had no bottom line and can do anything. He helped pay off the gambling debt this time. Maybe next time, then Father He will dare to fight Borrowing money everywhere in his name.
When the time comes, the He family encounters another unfortunate incident. Does he still want to help
Jiang Zhen has always felt that he is responsible for his own life, so after he rescued the two women from the water bandits, he let them go without saying a word. Before saving He Qiusheng, Liu Heitou couldn't. After arresting He Qiusheng again, the debt matter will not matter, let them handle it by themselves.
Others can save once, but they can never save a lifetime. If you want to live a good life, you still have to rely on yourself.
"Then Liu Heitou's methods are vicious. He will kill my father, as well as my brother... You... As long as you are willing to help, I can do anything." He Qiusheng said, summoning up his courage to look at Jiang Zhen.
"I won't help." Jiang Zhen reiterated. At this moment, he also saw something, and because he saw it, it became more and more impossible for him to help.
He didn't want Zhao Jinge to misunderstand and be sad.
"Why! You are so powerful, why didn't you help me?" He Qiusheng couldn't help asking.
"No matter how powerful I am, it has nothing to do with you!" Jiang Zhen said, ignoring this person and going to work on the other side.
In his opinion, these fourteen or fifteen year olds are the most difficult to get along with. If it is not necessary, he does not want to contact them at all.
He Qiusheng watched Jiang Zhen ignore him and walk away, and felt aggrieved again.
He was obviously very good-looking, why didn't Jiang Zhen take him seriously
He wanted to leave, but thinking of his mother who had been wiping tears incessantly for the past few days and his two brothers who were already struggling, he gritted his teeth and chased after him: "Boss Jiang, please help me! Can't I pay you back in the future? My father borrowed 30 taels of silver, and as long as you let Liu Heitou wipe out the account, I will pay you back 50 taels in the future." He is good-looking, and if he is ruthless, the dowry gift of 50 taels of silver will come!
Jiang Zhen didn't even bother to say anything this time, it wasn't a question of money at all. Madam Jiang can toss, at least they don't gamble, what about He Qiusheng's father? That is a bottomless pit. Their family didn't want to get rid of this bottomless pit, and they kept filling it with money, which would only make the bottomless pit bigger and bigger.
"Boss Jiang, you can beat Liu Heitou, so powerful, please help me!" He Qiusheng said again.
"I'm not that good at the beginning." Jiang Zhen was a little annoyed: "You better get out of here, or I'll even hit you!"
When Jiang Zhen spoke, he pointed at He Qiusheng with the axe in his hand.
He Qiusheng was startled as the shining axe was facing him so straightly, and he fell to the ground.
Jiang Zhen left again, and this time He Qiusheng didn't dare to keep up, so he could only walk to the village in a dazed way.
When Zhao Liu came to deliver food to Jiang Zhen, he saw He Qiusheng at a glance, and he felt a "squeak" in his heart.
She also knew about Jiang Zhen's rescue of He Qiusheng from Liu Heitou before. Originally, she wanted to ask Jiang Zhen with Zhao Fugui that day, but Jiang Zhen gave them one hundred taels of silver, and they were dazed by the earthquake. Huhu, just forget it.
Now... This He Qiusheng came from there to find Jiang Zhen, right
Zhao Liushi felt that Jiang Zhen was his mother-in-law looking after her son-in-law, and the more she saw it, the more happy she became. Now she felt that Jiang Zhen was a piece of fat that anyone who saw it would want to take a bite, and immediately raised her heart.
After passing by He Qiusheng, Zhao Liu quickly found Jiang Zhen.
The land that Jiang Zhen bought had a forest on one side and a bamboo forest on one side. Because no one took care of it, the two forests were too dense. Jiang Zhen planned to cut down some trees and bamboos so that the land below could be seen. Sunlight, so that in the future, the leaves and bamboo leaves will be swept away, and some seeds will be scattered, and green vegetables will grow.
And ducks and chickens will eat vegetables.
Seeing Zhao Liu's coming, Jiang Zhen stopped his movements and called out "mother", feeling a little disappointed.
They are about to get married, so why is Zhao Liu still coming to deliver meals? What if it was Zhao Jinge who came to deliver the meal? He picked up a bird's nest before, with seven or eight eggs in it, and planned to play with Zhao Jinge.
"Jiang Zhen, it's time to eat." Zhao Liu said, and went to greet Wang Haisheng who was working on the other side.
In addition to food, Zhao Liu also sent water. Jiang Zhen and Wang Haisheng were indeed hungry and tired, so they happily finished their meal and drank water.
When they had enough to eat and drink, Zhao Liu finally thought about what she wanted to say to Jiang Zhen, and Wang Haisheng couldn't speak to her, so she said, "Jiang Zhen, come with me to see this place!"
Zhao Liu is not a person who can hide his emotions. He can see everything in his heart. Jiang Zhen knew that she had something to say, so he took her to the place where he planned to build the chicken coop. .
Sure enough, soon, Zhao Liu said, "Jiang Zhen... Do you understand the matter of the He family? Then He Qiusheng's father is just a muddy mud that can't support the wall. It's just a good life. To lose everything in the family, the two boys from the He family worked hard for others to earn some money to buy food, but when they turned around, the food was stolen and sold by him and lost all the money."
Zhao Liu wanted to say something bad about He Qiusheng, but He Qiusheng didn't actually do anything bad, so he specifically said about He Qiusheng's father: "He is still entangled in people, and he will never let go. Whoever loaned him money softly, he kept it, and he borrowed it every day, and he and our family also borrowed a hundred pennies and didn't pay it back!"
"This kind of person can sell their own children even if they don't recognize them, so let's stay away." Zhao Liushi said again, racking his brains to talk about the troubles of the He family.
"Mother, I understand." Jiang Zhendao, for some reason, watching Zhao Liu say there is something wrong with the He family, he always felt a little bit wanting to laugh.
Zhao Liu finally felt relieved: "It's good that you know, but don't be entangled."
Jiang Zhen was very sure: "No way." He didn't like He Qiusheng's one at all...
Zhao Liu said everything he wanted to say, but at this time, Jiang Zhen asked, "Mother, do you know anything about Liu Heitou's family?"
Zhao Liu came from Qiaotou Village and had the same surname as Liu Heitou.
"Although I have the same surname, my mother's family has nothing to do with his family. When I got married, Liu Heitou was just running away, and his family was still poor. I didn't know him well." Zhao Liu said. That Liu Heitou is in her early thirties, and it has been nearly ten years since she became powerful. In the past ten years, she has not had much contact with her family.
Jiang Zhen didn't plan to ask anything from Zhao Liu's, he casually said a few words to Zhao Liu's, and then went to work again.
Zhao Liu came back home with a basket, and after thinking about it, he was still worried, and with the last slap on the thigh, he called Brother Zhao Jin, who was setting up a mud stove.
"Mother, is something wrong?" Zhao Jinge asked. In the past, the stove in their house had only one chamber and could only hold an iron pot. Now that Jiang Zhen bought another iron pot, he and Zhao Fugui worked together and planned to rebuild the stove.
This work is dealing with mud. Brother Zhao Jin is all mud at the moment. When Zhao Liu looked at his son and recalled the appearance of He Qiusheng he had seen before, he couldn't help but worry again.
"Brother Jin, don't do this, go wash and wash yourself, put on the new clothes Jiang Zhen bought for you, and then send water to Jiang Zhen." Zhao Liushi said.
Zhao Jinge was confused. He wanted to deliver food to Jiang Zhen just now, but Zhao Liu stopped him and didn't let him go. Why did he let him deliver water now
Zhao Fugui also said, "Didn't you just deliver water? I need Brother Jin's help here."
"I'll give it away just now! I'll help you." Zhao Liu tugged up his sleeves.
Zhao Jinge and Zhao Fugui didn't know why, but at Zhao Liu's insistence, Zhao Jinge took a shower and went to Jiang Zhen with water.
Jiang Zhen felt more and more wanting to laugh when he saw that Zhao Liu's had just left and Zhao Jin was here.
With Wang Haisheng, Jiang Zhen couldn't be friendly with Zhao Jinge, so he only gave Zhao Jinge the egg he got and a snake he caught, and asked Zhao Jinge to take it back to add vegetables, and also gave Zhao Jinge a bunch of wild flowers that he picked up. , let him take it back and raise it in a bamboo tube.
Zhao Jinge made a special trip, and soon returned.
Zhao Liushi couldn't help Zhao Fugui at all, and she didn't have the heart to help, and kept waiting for Zhao Jinge.
Seeing that Brother Zhao Jin came back with a bouquet of eggs and a snake, she finally felt relieved.
When He Qiusheng left before, he was empty-handed, and Jiang Zhen was still the best for her brother Jin.
Wait, this bird's egg, this snake, this flower, couldn't be all Jiang Zhen got it in that moment, right? If that's the case, why didn't Jiang Zhen give her something when he passed by himself just now
She also walked away empty-handed...
On the Zhao family's side, Zhao Liu's was just a little depressed. On the other side of the He family, He's father was scolding He Qiusheng. He felt that He Qiusheng was useless, and even the Boss Jiang, who had never seen the world, was doing it. indefinite.
Mother He usually dotes on He Qiusheng very much, but now Father He is angry, but she doesn't even dare to say a word, she just cries, and persuades He Qiusheng: "Otherwise, you can go find that Jiang again. Boss?"
"Qiusheng, mother really can't help it..."
He Qiusheng has always been very embarrassed, and Jiang Zhen has been facing him with an axe, so how can he be willing? I refused without thinking
When Father He saw this, he rushed up to slap He Qiusheng, but was stopped by He Chunsheng.
These days, the two brothers He Chunsheng and He Xiasheng have had a very difficult life, and their grievances against Father He are getting bigger and bigger day by day.
Pushing Father He to the ground, He Chunsheng and He Xiasheng took their younger brother out the door.
"Qiusheng, when we went to the county town before, didn't the son of the bakery owner like you very much? He even came to find you later... marry him. If you go to the county town, Liu Heitou will not dare to treat you. How's it going?" He Chunsheng said. No matter how powerful Liu Heitou was in the countryside, he wouldn't dare to go to the county seat to splash around. If He Qiusheng went to the county seat, he would definitely be able to avoid him.
As for the family... family affairs, He Qiu gave birth to a pair of children, so don't worry about it.
The son of the pastry shop owner is the best of all the people who like He Qiusheng, but they have more than one son, and the owner of the pastry shop is very powerful, so He Qiusheng didn't want to marry him before.
And now...
"Then what do you do!" He Qiusheng cried again.
"There is always a way." He Chunsheng said, wiping his eyes.
He Chunsheng was actually one of the bachelors in He Xicun who couldn't marry a daughter-in-law. He was already twenty-three, but no one ever told him about his marriage.
No, in fact, there are still some people. Someone once fell in love with He Qiusheng and wanted to exchange relatives with their family, but when he heard that they were going to exchange a woman for He Qiusheng, he kicked them out.
"Then let's think of another way! I'll go find Boss Jiang." He Qiusheng said, his father was tossed by Liu Heitou, he didn't really care, but he still had his mother and brother...
"Boss Jiang... Qiusheng, what did he say when you went to see Boss Jiang before?" He Chunsheng asked.
At home before, He Qiusheng didn't want to be laughed at by He's father, so he just said that Jiang Zhen didn't want to, but now facing the two older brothers, he told all the ins and outs of the matter, and Jiang Zhen's words were repeated sentence by sentence. .
He Chunsheng listened, at first felt wronged for his younger brother, but in the end he couldn't help being silent and muttered, "I'm not that good from the beginning?"
He suddenly thought that the former Boss Jiang was a person who had a worse life than his and He Xiasheng's birthday. He was bullied all day long, and even he and He Xiasheng looked down on him.
But now? Boss Jiang is not even afraid of Liu Heitou.
He wasn't as good as he was from the beginning... Then... Can they be as good as Boss Jiang
"Qiusheng, hide at your uncle's house, Xia Sheng and I will find a way." He Chunsheng said.
He Qiusheng was persuaded by his two brothers to go to his uncle's house, but He Chunsheng and He Xiasheng went to Jiang Zhen together.
Jiang Zhen was about to finish work and go home when he saw He Chunsheng and He Xiasheng, and immediately frowned: "Are you finished?"
"Boss Jiang, can you teach us how to be powerful?" He Chunsheng asked.
Jiang Zhen raised his eyebrows in surprise, and He Chunsheng pulled He Xiasheng to his knees again: "Boss Jiang, teach us to fight! We don't want to go on like this anymore!"
After speaking, He Chunsheng and He Xiasheng kowtowed to Jiang Zhen together.
