Chapter 11

When the child yelled, a large group of people came out of the alley in an instant, and the first thing they said when they saw Li Buqi was, "Really, Hei Sanlang is back?" "Hei Sanlang is back, go home and see Let's see."

What happened at home?Li Buqi walked into the alley while greeting everyone, and came to his door.Li Buqi's parents had already helped each other out of the door, and saw Li Buqi's mother rushing up with her hands open: "Son! You are back! How can you be so stupid..."

Li Buqi was about to enjoy the warmth of his family, when suddenly his mother stopped, circling around as if looking for something.Someone asked: "Sister-in-law, what are you looking for?"

The mother who took Li Buqi suddenly saw the stick in Li Buqi's hand, rushed up to snatch it, swung it round, and hit Li Buqi in his pocket: "I'll hit you for disobedience, I'll hit you! I don't understand..."

Although I don't have much strength, it still hurts when the stick is on my body.Li Buqi covered his head with his arms and quickly dodged: "Don't hit, don't hit!"

The neighbors also persuaded, and my father also came up to hold my mother, and then my mother threw a stick and hugged Li Buqi and cried loudly: "You scared my parents to death!"

It took a long time for everyone to persuade his mother, and Li Buqi thanked everyone for helping his parents back home.After entering the yard, my mother lost the slightest bit of anger. Instead, she kept asking Li Buqi if he had eaten, but was he tired?Under the questioning of the two, Li Buqi had to briefly talk about what happened in Shaanxi. Of course, the part about escaping from death was skipped, so there was no need to worry the two old people.

Seeing this house with four walls, he was too embarrassed to open his mouth and say he wanted to take a bath, but in fact he already had lice on his body.Li Buqi may not care, but for Liu Zhiwei, this feeling is really uncomfortable.The two excited old men insisted on burning wormwood to smoke the mosquitoes before going to rest, and then he walked into Li Buqi's room and sat down on the bed.

The furnishings in the room are very simple, two benches set up a wide plank bed against the wall facing the door, judging from the width, it should be a double bed.There is a small table and a stool near the window. On the table is an inkstone and a pen holder with several brushes hanging on it. Next to the table is a bookshelf with some books and a roll of paper.That's all there is to it.

Although it is simple, it is a shelter from the wind and rain, and there are neighbors who know everything about it, so they can finally sleep peacefully.Li Buqi kicked off the broken hemp shoes on his feet, turned over and lay down on the bed, thinking that he would start earning money after two days of rest.As a person who traveled from 1000 years later, if you can't lie down and make money in Song Dynasty, you might as well find a piece of tofu and kill yourself.

Finally, I didn't need to keep one eye open when I slept, just in case, and I slept soundly.But a good dream was disturbed by the noise in the yard.He got up in a daze to see that the sun was almost at mid-heaven, and the four men in the yard were yelling at Li Buqi's parents: "I saw that you were pitiful at that time, and I lent you money because I couldn't help but die. Don’t you want to pay it back now that you’ve recovered from your illness? You ask around, but my interest rate is the lowest in Tokyo, and you still think it’s too high? This is really kind of unrewarding! That’s why I say good people can’t do it! It’s useless to say more, it’s in black and white The deed is here, if you don't pay the money after two days, you can use this yard to pay off the debt!"

Li Buqi's father, Li Lei, said angrily: "But someone told me that you were the one who refused to let others lend money to my family because you wanted to seize my yard."

But Niu'er was complacent: "So what? Who told you to borrow money? If you don't see a doctor, you won't be fine if you don't get medicine? Now that the contract is here, it's just to see an official. You can't come to this yard without money." It's mine. Let's see who can speak for you?"

Li Lei was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do. Li Buqi's old lady was so angry that he cursed Niu Er to die.But Niu Er said with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't die. Haven't you heard that good people don't live long and they live thousands of years? Haha!"

This person is in Li Buqi's memory, but he is Niu Er, a money lender on the street.Did the family borrow his debt?
Li Buqi put on his clothes and came out of the house and asked, "What's going on?"

Niu'er saw Li Buqi stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "So your Sanlang is back. I heard that he went to the frontier army to earn credit, so he must have brought money back. It happened so, so I paid back the money." , I won’t move your yard. You’re paying for it!”

Li Buqi glanced at Niu Er and asked coldly, "How much do you owe?"

Li Buqi was already a person who had escaped from death and killed many people, and there was a fierce murderous look in his eyes.People in the market like Niu Er are the most sensitive to this, and suddenly feel a chill in their hearts.But thinking about the contract in black and white in his hand, the kid in front of him is only fourteen or fifteen years old, and he can't do anything to himself, so he regained his courage, shook his head and said: "Ten pennies! This is a grace several times Now, this time, we can’t delay any more.”

Li Buqi said: "Okay, I will pay you back the ten pennies."

Niu Er was surprised: Didn't it mean that this kid had no money at all when he came back last night? Could it be that he was mistaken?

He hurriedly stretched out his hand: "Take the money!"

Li Buqi still said coldly: "Isn't there still two days left? I will pay you back ten pennies in two days. Now, get out!"

"What did you say?" Niu Er was about to throw a tantrum, but when he met Li Buqi's cold eyes, he immediately felt guilty. "Okay, don't be stubborn! If you don't see the money after two days, I will have to invite you out! I don't believe that you, a thief and an army, can come up with ten coins. Don't steal it?"

Li Buqi rolled his eyes: "How I get money is none of your business! Get out of here!"

It is good to have the ability, and have enough confidence to pretend to be aggressive.After Niu Er left, Li Buqi asked Li Lei, "Daddy, why did our family borrow so much money?"

Seeing that Li Buqi clenched his fists, Niu Er couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart.Now that he had spoken harshly, Niu Er hurried away with three thugs shaking his arms.

Li Lei sighed straight away, and the lady in Yi, who was diagonally opposite the door, poked her head in and said, "Where are there so many? It's all because of profit. You ran away without saying a word. Although the little fat man brought a letter later, you Mother fell ill because of getting angry. Your father borrowed a lot of money to treat your mother."

It's so dark!Without bothering to talk about it, Li Buqi hurriedly asked his old mother: "How is your mother's illness?"

"I'm almost on the mend. As soon as I see you back, I'll be fine."

Looking carefully at the face of the old lady, it seemed that there was no serious problem, and I was relieved after asking my father again.Now I have to consider the issue of making money, and the originally calm plan can only be advanced.Li Buqi turned around and went back to the room to take out his old clothes and saw that they were much smaller. It was not suitable for wearing out, so he had to wear this dirty outfit, then rolled up a few pieces of rice paper and took out a wooden board from the bookshelf , I found a piece of cold cooking cake and a few pieces of charcoal left over from the winter burning in the kitchen and said to my parents: "My lord, my son is going to earn money now. You can just wait at home."

The old lady felt sorry for her son and hurriedly held him back: "Oh, where did you earn so much money in three days? At worst, we don't want this yard anymore."

Li Buqi comforted his old mother and said: "Mother, don't worry. Now that the child has learned the skills, it is not difficult to earn ten pennies. Mother just wait at home."
