Chapter 44

In Meng Duo's view, most people who gamble are not kind, let alone those who force others to use their land to repay their debts.But Xiao Qiang said that the group left after getting the money, and the uncle left by himself later, so where did the uncle go?
At dawn, Meng Duo was looking around at the gate of the courtyard. Siya woke up and saw that her elder brother hadn't come back yet, so she cried even more.

When Si Ya cried, Meng Duo felt even more uncomfortable.Although it is unlucky to see tears in the first month, Meng Duo still has the heart to worry about these things.If it wasn't for the young uncle and sister-in-law, she is the backbone at the moment, she really wants to cry a lot.

She tugged at her uncle and sister-in-law, and after thinking about it for a while, she decided to go to the village chief.Although she was reluctant in every possible way, if something serious happened to Meng Dazhen, only the village chief could mobilize people to help in this village.

Before the three of Meng Duo reached the door of the village chief's house, they saw the village chief galloping past in a carriage, followed by a man on a tall horse, and vaguely heard something like going to the town to see the mayor.

She was startled when she heard the words, what's the matter, the mayor summoned someone early in the morning?There was a flash in her heart, and she hurried in to ask the village chief's wife.

When Chen heard the people tell the story, and saw the village chief hurried away with the money, she felt uncomfortable. How could she have the mood to talk to Meng Duo?
Meng Duo got two or three sentences right, so he took his uncle and sister-in-law back home.

The north wind was blowing outside, Meng Duo asked Sanchun to take Siya back to the house to wait, but they were all thinking about how their elder brother could stay, so they ran out every once in a while to have a look.

Meng Duo has been standing in the north wind, his hands and feet are cold, and he never sees Meng Da's shadow, and his heart is even colder.

She didn't know how long she had waited, but when she saw Meng Da walking towards the sun, she felt in a daze.She rubbed her eyes to make sure she was not mistaken, all her fears turned into grievances and complaints, tears welled up uncontrollably.

Seeing Meng Da hugging Siya and dragging Sanchun into the house to follow her, the complaint in her heart deepened.

Meng Da has always been the backbone of the family, and since Meng's second child passed away, Meng Duo can only rely on him.When he thought that he would disappear without saying anything, without even an explanation, the tears in Meng Duo's eyes still fell.She was afraid of being embarrassed by Meng Da, so she hurriedly turned around and wanted to go out.

"Siblings!" Seeing her turn around, Meng Da hurriedly whispered, "Are you... crying?"

Meng Duo lowered his head and hurriedly wiped his eyes with the back of his hand, "Who is crying? It's just that they lost their eyes."

Meng Da heard her speak with a nasal voice, knowing that she must be crying, he couldn't help but feel more self-blame and annoyed.

"It's all because I didn't think well enough, which made you worry." He strode over, stretched out his hand to touch Meng Duo's shoulder, and quickly retracted, his face a little embarrassed, "How long have you been standing outside? It's all air-conditioning, hurry up and sit on the kang, and listen to me tell you slowly!"

"What are you talking about, I don't want to hear it!" Meng Duo got angry for the first time, not only Meng Da was stunned, but even she herself was taken aback.

The person in front of her is her uncle, how can she have such an attitude?She wasn't angry, but a little wronged. Uncle won't misunderstand, right?
She timidly raised her head, glanced at Da Meng, bit her lip and said softly, "Uncle didn't come back all night, I was so worried. The second brother is gone, if something happens to Uncle, uncle and sister-in-law and I..." Before he finished speaking, tears fell down again.

Seeing her crying with red eyes and white lips biting, Meng Da wanted to slap himself twice.

"I..." Meng Da's fists were clenched tightly, loosened and then clenched again. After a long while of conflicts, he finally made up his mind.Leaving aside the identities of uncle, brother and daughter-in-law, they are still brothers and sisters who grew up together.

"Brother Meng!" Meng Da rubbed over, reaching out to caress her back, when suddenly Xiao Qiang's movement came from outside.

Before he withdrew his hand, Xiao Qiang had already opened the door curtain and barged in. He saw the two of them very close to each other, one with a sad face and one with embarrassment.

"I didn't come at the right time?" He was straight-hearted, and he smiled hippiely when he saw this ambiguous scene.

It was only then that Meng Duo realized that something was wrong, two red clouds flew up on his cheeks, and his tender white neck and small earlobes were also stained red.

"Hey, has the village chief been to your house?" Meng Daqing coughed and asked.

When Meng Duo saw that they said something serious and left the house, Xiao Qiang hurriedly took out the silver from his arms, "Brother Meng, you take the ten taels of silver first, and I will return the rest as soon as possible. Thank you for your kindness. I remember it in my heart. Yesterday I knelt in front of the ancestors for a whole night, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt that I was an idiot. It was obvious that someone set up a trap, but I jumped in stupidly. If it wasn't for the help of my elder brother, I would Even if you die, you won’t have the face to see your ancestors. From now on, if I gamble again, I’ll die with my hands and feet, and I will be reduced to a beast in my next life!”

"What's the use of cursing and swearing? Let's see later." Meng Da said lightly.

The ancestors of the Xiao family have been honest people for generations, and Xiao Qiang is very responsible in his bones.It's just that there is no elder restraint in the family. In the early years, a few close relatives coveted his family's property and went around.

He is only so young, he is greedy for excitement, impulsive and competitive, it is normal for people to be unable to hold back when they are slightly stimulated.Meng Da kindly persuaded him not to listen, but now that he has learned his lesson, he regrets it too late.

"At first, I was thinking of asking Mrs. Wang to tell you about marriage, but something like this happened. How can there be a girl from a good family who is willing to marry you now!" Meng Da said regretfully, "Fortunately, you know how to repent. After a while everyone will forget about it."

"Brother Meng is worried, but it's really not good without a woman in this family. Look at brother here, there is heat when entering the house, hot food when you take off the pot, hot bed when you sleep, and a way to live life!" Xiao Qiang said enviously. He stared at Meng Duo who was cooking in the yard.

Meng Da followed his gaze and frowned in displeasure.

Xiao Qiang looked at Meng Duo who was burning a big stove in the yard, then at Meng Da with a serious face, and suddenly laughed.

Meng Da was inexplicably guilty by his laughter, and then a little annoyed.

"Go home if you have nothing to do, and think about how to make money to pay off your debts." Meng Da kicked him away for the first time.

"The town is very lively on the [-]th day of the first lunar month, and many people have to spend half the night shopping. I thought about buying some gadgets that children like, and I guess I can earn some copper coins. But I don't have any money, Brother Meng, do you want it?" Partner with me?" When he came here, besides paying back the money, he also had business to discuss, "There is not much foundation, so naturally you won't earn too much, but fly legs are also meat. Brother Meng contributes money, I contribute, and you earn money Seven and three."

"You are smart, you pretended to pay back the money first, so that I can't say that I don't have money, and then I borrowed chickens to lay eggs." Meng Da laughed when he heard this, "If you make money, we will get [-]% off, what if you lose money? Anyway, money It’s mine, you’re just setting up some legs, it’s really a good idea.”
