Chapter 158: Searching for Someone

Old Man Lin saw that there was no problem with the IOU and pressed the handprint, then took the silver taels, and continued to gamble on the table. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

But good luck didn't always favor him, the one hundred taels of silver were on the table and he lost faster, and after a while, Lin Yongde was empty in front of him. After losing, he was dumbfounded, and he seems to be in trouble today, what should he do? I lost a hundred taels of silver, and it's really hard to explain to my grandchildren when I go back.

The person who borrowed his silver just now came over again and asked him if he had borrowed it, but the old man was heartbroken and borrowed it. But this time he was a little more cautious, and he didn't dare to bet as high as before, and every time he bet a little, it seemed that he could win a little bit again.

Old Man Lin's gambling was called a forgetfulness, the sky was getting dark, and he didn't notice it, he didn't care if he was hungry, he just focused on fighting on the table.

Lin Ji was in a mess at this time, this old man went out to walk on the street in the afternoon, and he didn't come back until dinner. The family waited and waited for him but didn't see him, Lin Yujuan asked Li Dajiang and his wife and Yusuo to go to the street to look for him.

The old man usually searched all the places he liked to visit but couldn't see a figure, Lin Yujuan wondered if he was lost somewhere? But if you get lost, you can ask someone, or hire a sedan chair to come back, and it won't be dark and you haven't come back.

What the hell is going on?

Lin Yujuan didn't dare to delay any longer, and took Yue'e to Zhiweixuan to find someone to help.

Xue Tingfang was not there, and it was the big shopkeeper who received him.

Lin Yujuan said anxiously: "Big shopkeeper, please help me find some people to find my grandfather in the nearby streets." I will pay twenty cents per person, and whoever finds my grandfather will be rewarded with five taels of silver. ”

After she finished speaking, she handed over the two ingots and ten taels of silver ingots to the shopkeeper, "You use it first, and then tell me if it's not enough." And my grandfather's name is Lin Yongde, he is over 60 years old, and today he is wearing a black cloth jacket, a beard, and an accent from Taixian. ”

The shopkeeper answered, stretched out his hand and beckoned a man who lived relatively close to his family to come over, lit up the two ingots of silver ingots, and said:

"Huang Xiaosi, you go home and gather the neighbors who live nearby to find someone, this work is not in vain. Whoever goes out to find someone will be rewarded with twenty taels of silver, and the reward for finding someone is five taels of silver. The old man's name is Lin Yongde, in his sixties, dressed in black, with a Taixian accent. Go ahead, you must remember who you have asked for help. ”

Huang Xiaosi glanced at the white swaying silver, and ran home. After returning home, his parents, brother and sister-in-law, and older nephews all went to the street to look for someone as soon as they heard that as long as they contributed, they would have to pay 20 yuan. If you're lucky, you'll probably get five taels of silver.

He went to a few neighbors who had a good relationship, and when the neighbors heard about this good thing, they all went to the street, pulling their necks and shouting: "Lin Yongde-"

The other families in the alley were also alarmed, and pulled someone to ask, as long as they found an old man named Lin Yongde, they could go to Zhiweixuan to receive five taels of silver. So after receiving the news, all those who wanted to earn money went to the street to look for someone.

Lin Yujuan was afraid that if Yusuo found someone and disappeared again after returning home, the two of them would be worried. So I said goodbye to the shopkeeper and went home and waited. It's been a long time, and Sister-in-law Li didn't find anyone to lock them, so they came back to see first, in case the old man came back by himself. Then Lin Yujuan didn't let them go out to look for it again, after all, it was too late.

Finally, someone came to report that the person had found it, but he couldn't bring it back.

"What's going on?" Lin Yujuan asked Huang Xiaosi, who came to deliver the letter.

The person next to Huang Xiaosi spoke: "I found someone here, but I didn't bring it back, does that five taels of silver count?" ”

"Count, take us to someone, and when I see someone, I'll give you silver. Hurry up and lead the way, and have something to say on the way. Lin Yujuan asked Sister-in-law Li's mother and daughter to stay at home, took the jade lock and Li Dajiang followed Huang Xiaosi to pick up Old Man Lin.

"In Xia Wang Mazi, I like to gamble twice on weekdays, and today I heard that you are looking for someone at home, and I wandered around the alley for a long time and did not find anyone. Then I got to the neighborhood of the casino I usually go to, and I thought I'd go in and take a gamble and try my luck. As soon as I entered, I saw an old man with a raw face, just like you said, dressed in black, in his sixties, and speaking with a different accent. I called his name and tried it, and it turned out to be your old lady. This Wang Mazi said how he found Lin Yongde as he walked.

When Lin Yujuan heard this process, she said in her heart that if she wasn't a gambler, she really wouldn't be able to find her grandfather.

"Then my grandfather can't come back because his gambling money is deducted?"

"Yes, I owe hundreds of taels to the casino, and I didn't tell me how many people told me. I hurried over to deliver the letter. Wang Mazi also had palpitations when he said that, hundreds of taels, and he couldn't see that the old man gambled more than him.

When the group walked outside the gate of the underground casino, Wang Mazi was reluctant to go in.

"I'll wait out here, and it won't be good for them to know that I brought the man."

Lin Yujuan asked Li Dajiang to knock on the door, and the banging knock was particularly loud at night. After a while, someone asked who it was through the door, Li Dajiang said that his family came to find Lin Yongde, and the people inside did not open the door after hearing this, and hurriedly ran inside to deliver the letter.

"Big brother, that old man Lin has come to his house, what should I do? He only lost more than 300 taels, which is too little. Why don't we detain it a little longer? ”

"Use your brain, you can't complain about anyone when he comes to gamble and loses, but if we hold people and alarm the government, even the three hundred taels will be gone. Forget it, go open the door. ”

The little white face and crooked mouth were also a little depressed when they heard the news, and the old man Lin at the gaming table was even more haggard. He knew that there was a big disaster today, more than three hundred taels of silver, what to pay back. I was annoyed when I heard someone calling grandpa.

This is the voice of the jade lock, where does he still have the face to see people, the old man hung his head lower, and he only hated that there was no crack on the ground for him to get into.

"Who's the boss?" Lin Yujuan looked at the people on the field and asked.

"I am, little lady, what advice do you have?" A guy with a meaty face replied with a smile, seeing Lin Yujuan's appearance clearly, his heart was even more beautiful, and his heart was not bad.

"I'm going to take my grandfather away."

"Yes, but you have to pay the money."

"How many taels of silver?"

"Three hundred and twenty-eight taels, here is the IOU." The little white face next to him took a few IOUs and showed them to Lin Yujuan.

She looked at it through the light, and the sum of several sheets was really three hundred and twenty-eight taels.

"Grandpa, you lost so much silver?"

Old Man Lin trembled and said, "Originally, I won two hundred taels, but who knows that if I lose all, I still owe more than three hundred taels." ”
