Chapter 12
"Borrowing meat?" Li Yun smiled and looked at the boy with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and raised four fingers: "This winter, I lent you meat, do you have it back? At the current price, a catty of bacon is more than 40 copper coins, you Say, how much do you want to borrow from us?"

As if he didn't hear Li Yun's implication, the young man thought about it seriously and said, "Brother, just three catties!"

Three catties?

Li Yun shook his head and almost laughed out loud.

This family is really funny.

Three catties of meat, more than 140 copper coins, for these poor people in shantytowns, it is a question of whether the family has ten copper coins in savings.

If you borrow three kilograms at a time, I'm afraid it's like a meat bun beating a dog, and you will never come back.

"Okay," Li Yun said.

The family of three suddenly burst into ecstasy.

"Three catties of meat, what else do you want?"

"Ten catties of grain, is that okay?" The middle-aged man asked softly, tentatively.

"Okay! Why not! What else do you want?"

"Thank you big brother, what else do you have?" The middle-aged man was ecstatic.

"Bacon, rice, pepper, cabbage and bamboo shoots, do you want it?"

"Yes, yes! Thank you, big brother!"

"The same for you?" Li Yun looked at the family with a smile on his face.

"Okay!" The man clapped his hands vigorously, and the young man behind him smiled so hard that his face almost burst into tears.

"It's very good, isn't it?" Li Yun looked at the family, his smile restrained, and he said in a cold tone: "You are dreaming, it is impossible to give meat, and it is impossible to borrow rice. The last time I borrowed from you, I have done my best. Please." Come back, I don’t keep food here!”

The sudden change of face made the smiling face of the middle-aged man froze. After a long while, he hurriedly smiled bitterly and said:
"Big brother, your family has a lot of food. Our family has completely run out of ammunition and food. Even the mice don't visit our house. We really have no choice. If we continue, we will starve to death. Please help us. A little food, I, Yang Laoer, will give you a guarantee, and I will definitely pay you back in a month."

"We are all neighbors. If you help me today, I will help you tomorrow. Brother, do you think it makes sense?"

"Oh, I won't borrow this rice. Leave quickly and don't force me to beat you," Li Yun said coldly.

"This this…"

Younger Yang wanted to cry, but the son behind him got up straight away, and said stiffly, "Father, let's stop kneeling. If he doesn't borrow money, he won't. Let's go!"

"No," Li Yun didn't bother to take another look, and closed the door forcefully with a bang.

After being rejected, Yang Laoer sighed, and the fat wife next to him whispered: "Master, let's go. If you don't want to borrow it from this brother, let's find someone else."

"No one else will lend us a loan. It's winter, and every household is tightening their belts. No one will lend us a loan." Yang Laoer shook his head helplessly. He stopped kneeling, patted his butt and stood up.

"The family doesn't even have a son now, just a copper plate from Te Niang, but what's the use of a copper coin, buying half a cabbage? In this world, no one wants me to weave bamboo baskets, so I can't live!"

"Father, mother, let's go!"

The boy with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks snorted coldly: "Let's go back, I have something to tell you, we are sure to find food."

"Really?"

"Don't worry, Mom and Dad, we will survive this winter!"

"Hey, let's go, let's go..."

The three turned and left. At home, Li Yun came back and sat down to eat again. He stuffed a piece of bacon into his mouth, feeling a little uncomfortable.

A little depressing.

Xiaorou comforted softly: "Uncle, it's okay, this is the way it is in this world, there are always a lot of bad guys."

"I know," Li Yun smiled bitterly: "Just treat the food you lent them as feeding the dogs."

He could see through the true face of the family.

Seeing them pitiful before, the Virgin Mary had a heart attack and lent them some food, but unexpectedly, the family used it as a long-term food stamp.

Just borrow it once, and borrow it a second time.

In this world, every household is tightening their belts, so Li Yun seems to be a little better, but in fact he is not much worse.

If it is really difficult, you can help if you can, but is the family really in trouble?

What they said one by one was completely treating Li Yun as a weak long-term food stamp.

Of course it was impossible for Li Yun to lend it to them, but he felt a little uncomfortable inside. The kindness he gave was treated like this by others, and it would be uncomfortable for anyone.

"Forget it, I don't want to worry about it, let's eat and eat," Li Yun shook his head to dismiss those thoughts, and said with a smile, "Xiao Rou, whoever finishes eating will do the dishes."

As he said that, Li Yun quickly started dog-planing, so fast that Xiao Rou was stunned.

"Uncle is really good," Xiaorou held the rice bowl, looked at Li Yun with a smile, and ate slowly, as long as the uncle can figure it out, he must wash the dishes by himself.

……

creak.

The door opened, and the cold wind followed people in, making people shiver.

After Yang Laoer and his family returned home, they were filled with sorrow and returned empty-handed. After being rejected by Li Yun, their family went to find other people to borrow it, but no one was willing to lend it to them.

There is no way, the whole family can’t find anything to eat, so they can only hang around outside trying to find some wild vegetables, but there is a fart of wild vegetables in the snow, and the three members of the family are all red from the cold, so they can’t find it, so they can only go home in despair .

Gumbling…

The boy with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks covered his stomach, his chest pressed against his back with hunger: "Mom, is there anything else to eat at home?"

The obese woman shook her head numbly: "No, you have eaten up the rice I borrowed from that guy earlier. You have eaten all the food in the house, and there is nothing left."

"What about the money? Our family should have some money, right?"

"You have finished betting. It seems that there is still a copper coin. I will look for it." The woman immediately went to look for it. After a while, she came back and said sadly: "Mother is incompetent. I can't find it."

"Ah!" The young man roared, and angrily slammed his hammer on the table: "That Li Yun is really not a thing, he obviously has so much food and meat at home, but he is not willing to lend us some, how fucking stingy! "

"Son, don't you want to talk to us? Tell me, what can you do," Yang Laoer sighed.

"Mom and Dad, I know Li Yun. I bumped into him many times when I went to the gambling house before," the young man said, lowering his voice with a smile on his face: "Aren't you very curious about why I am so confident that I can survive this winter? Well?"

"Just a few days ago, I saw with my own eyes that guy Li Yun killed someone, and he killed someone from the gambling house."

"I suspect that Li Yun is buying meat and rice these days, the money he got from killing people and buying goods. Otherwise, you would call him a stinky gambler. Where did he get the money to buy so many good things?" The young man hehe laughed.

His eyes are full of shrewdness and greed.

"Son, are you sure you saw it?" Second Yang stared at the young man with a piercing gaze.

"Dad, don't worry, my eyes are rulers!" The young man clenched his fists confidently: "He was a gambler who killed people in the gambling shop. If he is discovered, he will definitely die. We will kill him."

"His rice and meat must be given to us!"

"Dad, I have a plan to do this tomorrow."

Hearing this, after learning about the plan, the obese woman's numb pupils flashed a little hesitation: "This is not good, that little brother is very good..."

"Women's kindness!" Yang Laoer scolded women and said sternly: "We all can't live anymore. Just follow your words. Then if Li Yun gives in, forget it. If he doesn't give in, he will eat his mother's life for the rest of his life. !”

 If the detailed outline is used up, it will be gone tomorrow. I have to rethink. I only have the outline and direction of the plot, but no detailed outline.
