4. Ask for debts
Gu Manniang closed her eyes and rested, and when Mrs. Tang saw them, she thought that the time limit for her to return to the light had passed, and now she only had to wait for death.
Gu Manniang was going to die, and she ate three bowls of rice before she died. Such an abnormal phenomenon still makes Mrs. Tang pay more attention to it. After they left Gu Manniang's room, Mrs. Tang asked the Liu family to call the man in the family back. shouted back to discuss Gu Manniang's afterlife.
If Gu Manniang didn't return to the light and died, Mrs. Tang was afraid that she would be wrapped in a straw mat directly, and she wouldn't even buy a coffin for her. Now it's different, Gu Manniang has returned to the light, in order not to trouble the Tang family in the future after Gu Manniang's death, this funeral still has to be handled well.
Although Old Man Tang is a good farmer, as long as he does not delay farming, he doesn't care about anything else. Even if his daughter-in-law is about to die now, with Mrs. Tang in charge, as long as he sits there, he doesn't need him to express any opinions at all.
Tang Dazhu and Tang Erzhu, as the sons of Tang's mother-in-law, are about their younger brother-in-law, and as the eldest uncle, they naturally have nothing to say.
So, what to do, I still have to listen to Mrs. Tang's arrangement.
"A thin coffin still has to be bought, as for the shroud, the eldest daughter-in-law, you wait to go to the village to see if anyone has it, if there is, borrow it first. When this period is over, let's buy the cloth and come back and make it and return it to others. β
People here generally reach a certain age, and the sons and daughters-in-law of the family will prepare the shroud as soon as possible, so as not to win when they get it. This is not to curse the old man in the family, this is just a custom.
Mrs. Tang is less than fifty years old now, and they look relatively young, so these things haven't been purchased yet, and if they have them at home, they don't need to borrow them outside.
"Mother, I'm afraid that others won't lend it to me." Liu looked at Mrs. Tang with some embarrassment. Most of the people who buy shrouds are very precious to their own shrouds, after all, this is what they want to wear behind them. Since it is a treasure, how can it be casually lent to others for use?
When Mrs. Tang heard this, her face sank, "Then what do you say?" Can't let you three
Let's go naked and go on the road. β
This person died, if he didn't wear a shroud, people wouldn't wear anything in front of him, that's why Mrs. Tang would say this.
When Tang Dazhu and Tang Erzhu heard this, their faces couldn't help but turn red, and they quickly lowered their heads, pretending not to hear.
There was no way, Liu gritted his teeth, "Otherwise, I'll wait and try it at my mother's house." "Liu's father and mother are older than Tang Pozi and Old Man Tang, and the family has prepared the coffin and shroud early. Liu thought that his father's body was still relatively tough, and he didn't need this for a while. Her father and mother looked at her face and thought that they would agree to her request.
My father and mother are afraid that there is no problem in front of their daughter, but what Liu is most worried about is that Mrs. Tang will not admit the account, and when the time comes, this account will be directly carried down by the big house. Therefore, Liu is still a little hesitant.
"Yo, it's really hot at home, brothers, it seems that we have come to the right place today." Saying that, the person who came directly threw Tang Tiezhu in.
Mrs. Tang was so frightened by Gu Manniang that they began to discuss wholeheartedly preparing for Gu Manniang's funeral, so that they left behind the trouble caused by Tang Tiezhu. Now seeing this group of fierce and vicious people scared them a lot.
In the countryside, the door is generally not closed during the day when there are people at home. Therefore, for those who come to the Tang family to ask for debts, it is really unimpeded.
Tang Tiezhu, who was still on the ground, is not good now. The whole person was beaten so that the nose was not the nose, and the face was not the face. If Tang Tiezhu hadn't opened his mouth by himself, he would have really been beaten so much that his father and mother didn't know him.
"Mother, save me, I'm about to be beaten to death." After Tang Tiezhu pushed Gu Manniang down and broke her head, she ran out in fright. But where can he go, this debt repayment is justified, not to mention this group of lawless usurious people.
Tang Tiezhu hid, but he didn't have any money on him, so where could he hide, so he was quickly found by this group of people.
Knowing that you don't have the money to repay your debts, you will beat them up first, which will make people afraid, and those who smash pots and sell iron will have to pay back the money. They have long been experienced in asking for debts.
"Son, what's wrong with you? Whoever beats you, tell sΓΉ Niang, and Niang will find him. When Mrs. Tang saw that Tang Tiezhu was beaten and his nose was blue and his face was swollen, she couldn't wait to let herself take him to this crime. I am not afraid of this group of fierce gods and evil debtors.
Mrs. Tang looked like this, as if she knew who beat her precious son, she would immediately fight with that person.
"Hahaha......" Boss Wu immediately laughed twice when he heard Mrs. Tang's words. walked up to Mrs. Tang and said with a smile: "Old woman, you are really interesting." Don't you want to know who hit your son? Then I'll sue you now, I asked someone to beat him, you say, what do you want to do with me. β
Boss Wu had a smile on his face, but that smile made people feel very terrifying, which made the Tang family shudder involuntarily.
When Mrs. Tang heard this, she remembered who this group of people was. With the smile on Boss Wu's face, she dared to make decisions for Tang Tiezhu in a tough way.
And Tang Tiezhu had already been scared by Boss Wu's shouting, and he was so scared that he hid behind Mrs. Tang, and he didn't dare to look directly at him.
Looking at this group of spineless Tang family members, Boss Wu sneered twice. After that, he didn't care whether the Tang family was afraid or not, and directly found a place to do it.
And Tang Dazhu and Tang Erzhu both looked at Boss Wu with a wary face.
"Tang Tiezhu borrowed ten taels of silver from me, and he paid it off within ten days, but the silver has been delayed for almost a month. My silver didn't fall from the sky, it was only right to borrow money to repay the money, since Tang Tiezhu didn't have the silver to return to us, I had to bring someone to his father and mother to ask for it. "As the saying goes, the father's debt is repaid by the son, and the debt borrowed by the son can naturally be repaid by the parents.
As soon as the Liu clan and Zhang heard this, they couldn't wait to eat Tang Tiezhu raw immediately. The family worked hard all year round to save two taels of silver, and when he got good, this shot made the family do five years of work in vain. In addition, Tang Pozi was unconditionally good to Tang Tiezhu in the past, and this new hatred added to the old hatred, and she didn't let the sister-in-law hate them to death.
Boss Wu saw that the Tang family was stable there, and the family didn't speak. sneered, he has seen a lot of such things, "Tang Tiezhu borrowed ten years of silver from me, this is profitable, and now it is fifty taels, you quickly take out the silver and pay it back, otherwise, be careful that I break Tang Tiezhu's dog legs." β
After speaking, Boss Wu gave his subordinates a look, and the man had been following Boss Wu all the time, so he naturally knew what it meant, so he stepped forward and kicked Tang Tiezhu directly.
This is to give the Tang family a dismount, and they have to let these people know that a group of them are not easy to mess with, and if they want to repay the debt, there is no door.
