Kuai Chuan's face-slapping gold finger

Chapter 58

As soon as the voice fell, there was an instant silence.

Just when everyone thought that the Nie family would admit their love, Nie Xiangwen's eyes lit up, and he said, "That's right! Father's debt should be paid by son, as it should be!"

He tugged Ma Shi's sleeve, and Ma Shi immediately responded: "Yes, yes, that's the way to do it!"

Everyone: "..."

A group of onlookers were thinking, is the Nie family crazy?

But Ma Shi turned his face away and said to Nie Shan'en: "Da Lang, your parents have always treated you kindly. Now that your father is in trouble, you can't be so selfish."

"Mother!" Nie Shanen's eyes widened in disbelief.

Everyone: "..." Shameless!
Even Gui Qi was stunned for a moment, then turned to give Nie Shanen a sympathetic look, and said, "People say that tiger poison doesn't eat its offspring, you old lady is really cruel."

Ma Shi has always been thick-skinned, and this time he was a little shameless in front of everyone, with evasive eyes.She knew it was unconscionable to do so, but what could she do?Is it true that their family will lose their house and land?Is it really possible to ignore old man Nie? "Da Lang, we are not really separated, and we can't write two characters in one stroke. If you really need something, will we help you?"

The light in Nie Shan'en's eyes gradually lost, as if he had suddenly realized something, he just lowered his head and smiled self-deprecatingly, and when he looked up again, his black eyes were already dead, and he said to Gui Qi: "My lord, you must have seen it too. , I don’t have any long-term possessions, I really can’t afford 800 taels of silver now, I wonder if I can give it a little more time?”

Gui Qi found it interesting, and circled around Nie Shanen, seeing him standing quietly in the same place, motionless as a mountain, nodded with satisfaction: "It's someone else, young master, of course I don't agree, but you... that's okay too." It was because of my words that you suffered an innocent disaster, how about this, I will give you a chance." Gui Qi nodded his hands and thought for a while, then clapped his hands again: "Since it is a gambling house, then follow the rules of the gambling house, and you will How about a bet with me? If you win, I will release Nie Dafu immediately, and then let you relax... How about a one-year deadline?"

One year... Many onlookers felt that the pit was too deep, how can 800 taels be enough for a year?Nie Shan'en is just a poor and white country boy. Alas, I knew that the Nie family was biased, but I didn't expect it to reach this level. A good boy, just ruined like this...

I only heard Nie Shanen say without hesitation: "Okay, thank you in advance, boy." After saying that, he bowed to Gui Qi.

Gui Qidao: "I'm not going to make things difficult for you, just guess whether the money on my body is an odd number or an even number?"

Half the chance for each, it's all about luck.

"Even numbers." Yang Zhao said firmly.

When the bystanders saw that he answered without thinking at all, they all gasped. Did he intend to smash the can?

Gui Qi grinned, took out her silver bag, shook out the silver coins inside and counted them one by one. A few pieces of broken silver and a dozen copper coins were lined up on the ground one by one, reflecting the metallic luster under the sunlight. Muttering and counting, the villagers outside the courtyard all stretched their necks to look in. Nie Xiangwen secretly moved two steps towards Gui Qiqi, wanting to hear more clearly.

"47, 48, 49... Hey!" Gui Qi raised his head, and said with a half-smile: "It's seven taels of money and 49 coins, which is an odd number..."

Upon hearing this, the villagers sighed in unison and let out loud sighs. Ma Shi and Nie Xiangwen also glanced at Nie Huen resentfully, but at least they didn't dare to say anything excessive.

Yang Zhao remained calm, and also took out a penny from his own purse, and said to Gui Qi: "I will return you a penny first, boy, and now you have seventy-two, twenty-two and fifty pennies, isn't it an even number?"

Gui Qi was stunned for a moment, then looked up to the sky and laughed. He patted Nie Shanen on the shoulder, and dropped the words "willing to gamble and admit defeat" to remind Nie Shanen to keep his promise. Next time he will not be so easy to talk to.

Ma Shi and Nie Xiangwen looked at the back of Gui Qi leaving with his men, and both sat on the ground with their buttocks, as if they had collapsed.A shadow suddenly appeared above their heads, and when they looked up, it turned out to be Nie Shanen. At this time, he was against the light, and they couldn't see his appearance clearly.

"When Dad comes back, I'll invite Li Zheng."

After all, he turned and walked out the door.

Seeing this, the villagers on the third and outer floors of the courtyard consciously gave way. Seeing Nie Shan'en's expressionless face, they all said that he was chilled, and it was only because Ma Shi and Nie Xiangwen were so worthless!But after all, this is a matter of the Nie family, and Nie Shanen himself agreed, and they couldn't help him with anything.

Without Nie Shan'en's cover, the sun once again shone on Ma Shi's body. It was warm, but she only felt a little cold.

That afternoon, old man Nie was released, and not long after, Lizheng and several respected old people in the village were invited to Nie's house to preside over the separation of the family.

Looking at the cold-faced Yang Zhao in front of him, and the other three people who were dodging their eyes, Li Zheng sighed deeply, but the matter had come to an end, he could only help Nie Shanen fight for more.

As soon as he showed his intentions, old man Nie and Mrs. Ma cried bitterly, while Erlang of the Nie family sighed and groaned, which made him angry, but he heard Nie Shan'en calmly say: "Grandpa Lizheng, your The well-meaning boy appreciates it, but... in short, I don't take a single thing from the house, and take it as a repayment to my parents for their upbringing, I hope you take care."

"You really don't want to take it? You don't want the land, the house, or the silver?" Old Man Nie looked at him suspiciously.

"Exactly."

Nie Xiangwen finally noticed something wrong: "Brother, what do you mean? Are you planning to cut off contact with us? Don't you plan to recognize our parents?"

When Mrs. Ma heard this, she immediately said: "Then what's the matter? Even if the family is separated in the county, they still have to pay money to their parents for the elderly every month!"

Li Zheng: "..."

Lizheng has been in Lizheng for more than 30 years, and has presided over a dozen family divisions. He thinks he has seen all kinds of human feelings, but he is also amazed at the brazenness of the Nie family.

You must know that in Dongshan Village, it has always been emphasized that "the parents are here, and the family is not separated", otherwise it will spread the reputation of being unfilial, and unfilial piety is also one of the ten evil punishments in Hongguo, and no one wants to get involved.But the situation of the Nie family is different. The separation was initiated by Mrs. Ma in order to avoid Nie Dafu’s debts. It is precisely because of filial piety that Nie Shanen agreed to such a ridiculous proposal. Are you ashamed to ask for money?

Even if Nie Huen really wants to sever ties with the Nie family, the villagers will not say that he is not at all. Who would not be aggrieved by what happened today?

Lizheng immediately sank his face, warned Mrs. Ma sharply, and persuaded Nie Shanen together with several old people. Seeing that he had made up his mind, he had to sigh and help sort out the paperwork, which stated that Nie Shanen He didn't divide anything in the family, and took over Nie Dafu's gambling debts, so he didn't have to pay alimony to old man Nie and Mrs. Ma in the future.

He dried the ink and showed it to the Nie family first. Ma Shi was a little unwilling, but under the obvious dissatisfaction in Li Zheng's eyes, he had no choice but to calm down, and finally pressed his fingerprints reluctantly, and the rest of the people present were also divided. Fingerprints were printed on the family documents, and the matter of family separation was settled.

That night, Yang Zhao went to Zhang Xiucai's home. No one knew what he and Zhang Xiucai talked about. They only knew that a famous matchmaker from ten miles and eight villages visited Zhang's house the next day, saying that she was going to propose marriage to Zhang Xiucai's daughter, Zhang Yuantong, on behalf of Nie Shanen. , and Zhang Xiucai agreed!
Everyone said: "I said that Mr. Xiucai is crazy? Even if Miss Zhang's body is dumb, she wouldn't promise it to Nie Dalang, right? That's a debt of 800 taels of silver. Nie Dalang is also a fool, and he didn't pay a penny. Pick……"

Even Mrs. Ma chattered to the old man Nie in doubt: "What do you think the Zhang family thinks? Could it be... Zhang Xiucai is willing to help him pay back the money?" That's 800 taels... Zhang Xiucai has such a fortune?Then they are at a loss!

Fortunately, she quickly thought of the more affluent Miss Liu's family, and the grievance in her heart was relieved a little.

A few days later, news came back to the village one after another. First, it was said that Nie Shan'en was willing to degenerate and followed Nie Dafu's old path. As if there was a divine help in repaying the favor, he won nine out of ten bets, but within a few days he paid off the debt owed by Nie Dafu and made a lot of money.

It wasn't until Nie Shanen arrived at Zhang Xiucai's residence with more than a dozen carts of betrothal gifts that everyone knew that all the rumors were true...

At this moment in the Zhang family, Zhang Xiucai's cheeks were flushed with joy, he looked at the tall and straight young man in front of him, and praised him several times in his heart!Nie Shan'en was also kneeling in this hall that day, telling the whole story of the incident, expressing his intention to ask for Zhang Yuantong, and swearing to God to treat Zhang Yuantong kindly all his life and cherishing him with all his heart, otherwise he would be punished by God and fall into hell after death. Eighteen levels of hell can never turn over!

This kind of oath was a very serious oath in ancient times, and Zhang Xiucai was inevitably moved. He heard Nie Shanen tell the whole story of the separation of the family. It turned out that Nie Dafu's so-called 800 taels of debt was a trap arranged by Nie Shanen for his purpose. It is precisely for the purpose of separating the family and at the same time protecting his own reputation, making people blameless.

Zhang Xiucai was very shocked when he heard it at first. Nie Shan'en's scheming was beyond his expectation, but it made sense when he thought about it carefully. How could a person with such a talent in reading have nothing to do?What's more, although this trick is a conspiracy, it can also be regarded as a conspiracy. He just fabricated an illusion and let the rest of the Nie family choose. There is no way to do this!
Although Zhang Xiucai wondered why this son's personality changed drastically, but in his opinion, such a change is a good thing. He is willing to be confused for a while. People have to be able to protect themselves in order to protect the people around them. Perhaps, he was wrong in the past... …

However, what Zhang Xiucai knew had been whitewashed by Yang Zhao. The truth was that he first inquired about the whereabouts of Wang Gouzi, the local ruffian in Xingyang County through the prostitutes in Baihualou. After a pause, seeing that Wang Gouzi was being beaten and begging for mercy, he took Wang Gouzi to the casino again, and let the other party see the gambling skills he had learned in the palace from the servants who were proficient in this way.

Wang Gouzi's eyes were shining brightly, and Nie Shanen finally agreed to teach him after hard work, and he was overjoyed. He was hit by a stick and ate a sweet date, and he was so impressed by Nie Shanen , so when Nie Shanen asked him for help, he immediately agreed.

Wang Gouzi and Gui Qi, who was watching the scene in Tianxiang Gambling House, were childhood friends, and he introduced Nie Shanen to each other. Soon, Gui Qi was also impressed by Nie Shanen's superb gambling skills. After the plan...

Zhang Xiucai took a closer look at the young man in front of him, with white teeth and blue eyebrows, but he already has the appearance of a dragon, a colt, and a phoenix. soaring!
