The fierce peasant wife came to make a fortune

Chapter 10 Debt Collection

The man took out a piece of paper from his pocket, waved it in front of Miao Dafu, and said, "Do you know how to read? Did you see what was written on it?"

Miao Xiaoyan walked behind Miao Dafu calmly, looked at the paper, it turned out to be an IOU, borrowed by Miao Daidi before his death, presumably for the treatment of the original owner's eldest sister.

"What's this?" Miao Dafu looked at the paper blankly, he only knew the numbers on it, and didn't know the other words.

"IOU! The money your father borrowed before his death, plus interest, until now, is a total of 32 taels!" The man squinted and patted Miao Dafu's face with the IOU, gritted his teeth and said.

The man's actions made Miao Xiaoyan frowned even tighter.

Miao Dafu took a few steps back, and murmured: "I don't have any money." The money that Aunt Luo Shuluo gave was to buy food for younger brothers and sisters, and could not be given to them.

"You want to renege on your debt?!" Several strong men showed fierce eyes, and approached Miao Dafu two steps.

Miao Dafu took two steps back and bumped into Miao Xiaoyan.

"Swallow, take Xiaoque and Xiaobao into the house." After Miao Dafu finished speaking to Miao Xiaoyan, he turned back to the strong men and said, "Big brothers, I don't mean to renege on debts, I will definitely pay back the money. But I really don't have any money now, and I will definitely pay it back when I have money."

Seeing Xiaoque and Xiaobao standing in the corner of the yard and staring at them in fear, Miao Xiaoyan took them back to the house first, then turned back to the yard, and went into the kitchen before returning to the yard.

"Hmph, we heard that the Luo family left a lot of money for you when they left, hurry up and take it out for me, don't toast and eat fine wine!" The man in the lead warned with a cold snort.

Miao Dafu's face changed drastically when he heard that, how did the news spread so fast, even these loan sharks knew about it?
Miao Xiaoyan was not as innocent as Miao Dafu, she guessed that these people must be afraid that Miao Daidi would die, and their children would renege on their debts, so it is not impossible to send someone to watch their house.

"If you want money, you have to return this IOU to us!" Miao Xiaoyan walked up to Miao Dafu, looked directly at the strong men and said.

"Hey, a little girl has a serious tone! Do you know how much your father owes us?" One of the scar-faced men asked with a sneer.

"I know, it's 15 taels!" Miao Xiaoyan said to several people without fear. She just saw that the IOU was written as 15 taels.

"Ha~15 taels? Do you know how much the interest is for a day?"

"I don't care about the interest. We only have 15 taels. If you want to return the IOU, you can return it to us. If you don't return the IOU, you won't have a single copper!" Repaying debts is a matter of course. Now they only have 15 taels of silver from the Luo family, and they can't get any more. If they insist on calculating interest, then she, Miao Xiaoyan, will keep the money to buy food !
"Swallow." Miao Dafu tugged at Miao Xiaoyan's sleeve, fearing that if she angered the people in front of her, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Brother, don't be afraid, at worst, you will fight them!" Miao Xiaoyan glared at them angrily.

"Hmph, overestimate yourself! It seems that if you don't give me some color, you will see that you will not obediently hand over the money." The leading man winked at the few people behind him, and they walked into the house.

Miao Dafu hurriedly stopped in front of several people, and begged: "Brothers, please do me a favor, give me a few days' grace, and when I sell the firewood, I must pay back the money as soon as possible!"
