Chapter 49
They are all people who live every day, how can they save so much money.Usually I can see one or two taels, and I don’t know how happy I will be, but now, people want ten taels for one, isn’t this killing people?
"Father, I know I was wrong, I will never dare again, please help me!" Zhou Hong lost his previous arrogance, and just begged blindly.

Qian Jin looked at it coldly, but felt so sad in her heart.On weekdays, Zhou Hong was indifferent to the old man Zhou and his wife in every possible way, and he didn't care about his parents' feelings at all. Now, because of the matter of money, he actually knelt down to ask for help with tears and nose. It seemed so natural, isn't it embarrassing?
"Do you have any silver at home, don't you know?" Mrs. Yu kept wiping away tears, glared at Zhou Hong and asked, "When the family was separated, one person gave you two taels of silver, isn't that enough? Do you think I How much money did you hide with your father?" After the separation, they didn't earn much money when they went to sea, and in addition to the New Year's money for the children, they spent all they should have spent, and now they have no money.

"The daughter is there. Didn't she earn a lot of silver?" Zhou Hong looked up at the daughter with a confident expression on his face, as if it belonged to him.

"Your sister only made more than one or two taels in total. She bought clothes for the New Year, bought some brown sugar and spent some money, and only one or two taels of silver is left. How can there be a lot!" Mrs. Yu was very angry, because of this unbelievable son. And annoyed.

"Mother, don't be fooled by Qianjin. She earns only one tael, six or seven taels, okay?" Zhou Hong immediately waited for Qianjin to complain in dissatisfaction.

"What? Six or seven taels?" When Yu heard this, she looked at Qianjin in shock, then turned her head and stared at Zhou Hong in disbelief and asked, "How do you know that your sister earned six or seven taels? Who told you?" of?"

Not only Yu Shi was shocked, but even Qian Jin was puzzled... because everyone in the village knew about the money she earned before, so she didn't hide it from Yu Shi.Afterwards, she kept the money for making brown sugar rice cakes from Mrs. Yu, so apart from Juan'er who knew that she had made some money, she didn't know the details. Who told Zhou Hong?

Could it be that from the very beginning, Zhou Hong was plotting against the little money he held in his hand?

Qian Jin thought of this, a cold light flashed in her black eyes, and she clenched her hands tightly, but she still didn't make a sound.

Zhou Hong was stunned for a moment when he was questioned by Mrs. Yu, remembering what he had explained, he swallowed, and said impatiently: "Mother, I am your son, dear son, my life is at stake, if you don't let me Qian Jin came out to help me with silver, and asked this and that, do you think of me as your son?"

Qian Jin carefully looked at Zhou Hong's expression, and found that he seemed to be afraid of people who told him that he had made money, so she began to think about the tricks in it.If she guessed right, the news came from the other courtyard of the Yun family. That person must have told Zhou Hong that he earned two silver coins, and that he was not as good as her sister Yunyun without money... and then encouraged him Go to gamble, anyway, if you lose the bet, and her sister's money can pay him off.

Who is this vicious person?To get along with such a vicious scheme came out!If what Zhou Hong was looking for was money borrowed by a ruffian, then at this moment, how can the Zhou family live a peaceful life?

"I know you are my son, but that is your sister's money, which is the dowry she saved, and that money must not be touched!" After hearing Zhou Hong's words, Yu's heart became even more bitter. .She never thought that her son would become like this.

Where did that loyal and honest son go?

Zhou Hong wholeheartedly hoped that Mrs. Yu would open her mouth and ask the daughter to take out the silver. When the matter is resolved, it will be fine.But now, Mrs. Yu has been refusing to let go, not even willing to help, so she got annoyed and shouted at Mrs. Yu: "Dowry, dowry, you only think about her dowry, have you ever thought about my son being kidnapped?" People loose their tendons and hamstrings, how will they live in the future?"

Qian Jin stared at Zhou Hong dumbfounded, not knowing whether to cry or laugh... It turned out that people are so speechless when they make trouble for no reason and think themselves right.

The money is hers, okay, whether to help or not depends on her wishes, why is it heinous in Zhou Hong's eyes?

"That's what you asked for!" Old man Zhou's face turned black from his anger, and he was about to faint.

After a night of quarreling, the matter was still not resolved, and Qian Jin remained silent from the beginning to the end.She knew that if she opened her mouth, the matter would become more complicated, and Yu's desire to help Zhou Hong would be shattered.

The next day, the debt collectors came early and blocked Zhou Hong in the house, unable to go anywhere.

This time, it was not a single person who came, but a group of hooligans with sticks and knives. As soon as they entered the yard, they stretched out their postures, making Wang's hands and feet weak from fright.

"Zhou Hong, I told you at the beginning that it is impossible to sneak away after borrowing money. Tell me, do you want to give up your hamstrings, hand tendons, or return the money?" The people who came yesterday were not so friendly. , the hostility and gloom on his face made the fresh morning air seem so suffocating.

Zhou Hong and Wang Shi trembled in fright, Hui'er and Min'er were wailing and crying, Juan'er was also frightened, but still tightly guarded his siblings, biting his lips, saying I dare not say anything.

"Return...repay the money, let's pay back the money." Zhou Hong was so frightened that he couldn't even finish his sentence, but murmured in a low voice with a pale face.

"Then take out the silver, I don't count you 15 taels, as long as you pay back the silver today, it will be [-] taels!" Waving the paper in his hand, the debt collector said with a magnanimous face.

Brother, in just a few days, you have earned five taels of silver, so don't pretend to be so generous, okay?Qian Jin sneered in her heart, but she wasn't stupid enough to be a bird in the wall.

"Mother, help me, take out the money!" Zhou Hong looked at Yu's painful expression, and begged desperately.

"Wuuu... Ah Mu, if Brother Hong gets his hamstrings cut off, what will Huier do in the future? Please help him, we will be filial to you in the future." Wang also begged, now Only then did she realize that things were not that simple, and then she realized that she was afraid.

"I don't have any money. The money is in your sister's hands. If you want money, you go find her yourself." Even if Yu Shi was being tough, she would not just stand by and watch Zhou Hong's tendons in his hands and hamstrings being cut, so she finally let go. .

"Qianjin, you give the silver to elder brother. In the future, your dowry will be properly arranged by elder brother, okay?" Zhou Hou immediately looked back at Qianjin and coaxed.

"Yes, my daughter, my eldest brother and sister-in-law will definitely buy a dowry for you, don't worry, ah!" Mrs. Wang also obsequiously agreed, without the bitterness of the past.

Looking at the two of them, Qian Jin sighed in her heart, she knew a long time ago that Mrs Yu would let go, after all, he was her biological son.It's pretty good that she can survive until now.

"Silver, I'll borrow it." Qianjin didn't make things difficult for them, she opened her mouth readily, and when she saw Zhou Hong and his wife grinning happily, she suddenly turned a corner: "I don't want my elder brother and sister-in-law to buy me a dowry either. After all, your family has many children, and Juaner has grown up, so my money can only be borrowed, not for you. If you want money, write me an IOU, and I will lend it to you, otherwise, I will not give you a penny. Not for you!"

She didn't think Zhou Hong and his wife would be overwhelmed with gratitude after taking their money, and they would buy her a dowry, so she thought so.She can earn more money, but she definitely doesn't want Zhou Hong and Wang Shi to have a hard time.
