Chapter 10 Borrowing Money
When Jiang Chun came to the door, he saw Xingni who was spinning in place, seeing that her face was solemn and anxious, Jiang Chun guessed that something big should have happened.
"Chun'er, you must help me, I can't think of anyone else who can help me besides you." As soon as Xingni saw Jiang Chun, she took her hand and said eagerly.
Jiang Chun patted her soothingly and said, "If there is anything, you can say it slowly, don't worry." ”
Although it was a little difficult to speak, when she thought of the fierce and vicious appearance of those people, Xingni gritted her teeth and said, "Ah Chun, can you lend me some money?" ”
"Borrowing money? What are you borrowing money for? Jiang Chun was a little puzzled, Xingni's brother was an apprentice in a pharmacy, and he knew how to make herbs simply, so he taught Xingni some and let her usually concoct some herbs in her spare time and sell them in the pharmacy. She also did it with her before, and she also saved more than 20 yuan of private money. Xingni herself has money, why do she have to borrow money?
Biting her lip, Xingni whispered: "It's not that I want to use it, it's to save Brother Liangzi." ”
"Zhao Liang!" Jiang Chun gritted his teeth and roared, "He's gambling again, isn't he?" How much money is owed this time? All the private money you have saved over the years has been filled in to him, and he doesn't think about it for you. ”
Xingni looked embarrassed, her eyes turned red, and she kept saying, "This is the last time, he promised me that he would change." Besides, he's doing it all for me. ”
"For your sake, don't you do your job and gamble every day? He lied to you, you were still coaxed by him, you said you were stupid or not! Jiang Chun nodded at Xingni's head, hating that iron is not steel, "How many times has he said it, I think he just can't change the dog to eat, and he has to be told to carry a big heel to be honest." ”
Xingni took Jiang Chun's hand and pleaded.
Sighing, Jiang Chun asked, "How much does it cost?" ”
"Ten, ten taels of silver." Xingni whispered.
"How much?" Jiang Chun's eyes widened, and he shouted loudly: "Ten taels of silver? You're asking me to rob you of money. ”
Xingni also knew that some strongmen were difficult, but thinking that Brother Liangzi was beaten with blood all over her body, she had to say: "Chun'er, can you ask Jiang Quinoa to borrow it first, and when Brother Liangzi wins, we will pay it back immediately." ”
Jiang Chun sneered: "Zhao Liang is famous for losing nine out of ten bets, and when he wins to repay the money, I will wait until the Year of the Monkey." Besides, these ten taels of silver are not ten copper plates, and my monthly money is only more than one or two a year, and I have to be a maid for ten years to earn so much money, how do you want me to speak? ”
was rejected by Jiang Chun, Xingni suddenly despaired, and sat on the ground with a dead face, tears on her face couldn't stop flowing down.
Jiang Chun was frightened by her appearance, and called twice to see that Xingni did not respond, and hurriedly shouted towards the door. Fortunately, today the pillar was weaving a bamboo basket in the gatehouse at the door, and after hearing the shouting, he hurriedly came out to help help Xingni into the house.
The movement here alarmed the family, and everyone came up with ideas, but it was Aunt Rong who pinched Xingni with all her strength, which woke her up.
Xingni woke up slowly, saw a room of people surrounding her, looked at a person's face, and when she saw Jiang Quinoa, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she rushed over and knelt in front of Jiang Quinoa and kept kowtowing: "Miss, Miss, please save me, save Brother Liangzi, I beg you." I'll kowtow to you, I'll be a maid for you, and I'll work for you to pay off your debts, okay? Okay, okay?" He kowtowed as he spoke.
The whole room was frightened by Xingni, and when she reacted, she hurriedly pulled her up, and only then did she knock a few times on her forehead. Aunt Rong and Lotus are both perennial workmen, they have a lot of strength, but they can't pull Xingni, Jiang Quinoa saw that she was also forced to be anxious, and hurriedly said: "You get up first and say what's the matter, don't kowtow." “
Xingni breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and immediately sat down on the ground, unable to exert any more strength.
Lotus helped Xingni to the stool, and Aunt Rong poured another glass of water on Qiang, and she was much more sober. Jiang Chun has already said everything here.
"This Zhao Liang is a scourge, a scourge at two ends in three days. Xingni's private money saved over the years has long been emptied by him, and he hasn't even woken up, the more he gambles, the bigger he gambles, and now he owes ten taels of silver in gambling debts. I don't think I should save him, let those people teach him a lesson. Jiang Chun said angrily.
Xingni over there shuddered fiercely when she heard the last sentence, and the whole person began to tremble, Aunt Rong was shocked by her, glared at Jiang Chun, and hurriedly comforted Xingni.
When Jiang Qu heard the name Zhao Liang, he fell into deep thought, and after thinking for a while, he had already made a decision in his heart, pulled Qing Bo aside, and asked, "Qing Bo, how much silver is there at home now?" ”
Qing Bo glanced at Jiang Chun and the others, and said, "Miss, is this soft-hearted again?" Miss Bu said that if anyone in the village has three disasters and five difficulties, and we need to respond to emergencies, don't say ten taels of silver, it is twenty taels, I will go out to borrow this old face and raise it. But this Zhao Liang, I've also heard about it. A little bully in the next village, who has loved gambling since he was a child, and two years ago, he gave away the two houses left to him by his grandfather. His uncle was afraid of being implicated by him, and also threatened to cut ties with him last year. You see that it has fallen to such a point, he still goes to gamble, and he still owes so many gambling debts, if you want me to say, such a person really shouldn't be saved. ”
"This person is a bit hateful, it would be good if he let him suffer some hardships and have a long memory, but you see," Jiang Quinoa nodded to Xingni's side, "If this Zhao Liang has three long and two short, this is one death and two lives." ”
Xingni's grandfather and Jiang Quino's grandfather are cousins, and the two families have always been close. If Xingni's family has a difficult matter and needs money, Uncle Qing will definitely pay for it without saying a word, but after all, this Zhao Liang and Xingni have a private relationship, I heard that Xingni's mother dislikes Zhao Liang for gambling money and is a person, his parents have died, and his uncle has also broken off the relationship, and he does not agree with his relationship with Xingni. It's going to be hard for a while.
After pondering for a while, Qing Bo sighed, "Miss wait, I'll go get the money." “
took the money, Xingni said a lot of words of thanks over and over again, and she would repay the kindness of being a cow and a horse in her next life no less than five or six times, Jiang Quinoa was really worried about her mental state, and she was talking upside down, I am afraid that if she takes this money, she may not be able to redeem Zhao Liang safely.
"Brother Zhuzi, I bother you to go with Xingni, redeem Zhao Liang out, don't be coaxed by his sweet words, and directly escort him back." Jiang Qu said to Jiang Tiezhu.
Jiang Tiezhu is honest and steady, and often follows his father Qingbo to visit the major portals in the city, and the people in those gambling houses should also know that he is a subordinate of Jiang Jinshi's family in Jiangli Village, and they will not fool him at will.
