Chapter 046: Debt Collection Again
The next day, the Zhuang clan used fairy spirit ointment to repay the debt, and it spread all over Shenwang Village. As soon as the morning dawned, a few people arrived in front of the remote earthen embryo house and looked around.
Shen Xi was the first to notice the abnormality, put on his clothes, and immediately rushed out. "What do you want to do?" Coming to her house in groups, it must be no good thing, Shen Xi's tone was not good.
Villagers, you look at me, I look at you.
Shen Xi was extremely impatient and said, "If you have something, just say it, it's awkward." ”
"It's all cowardice." Wang Caihua rolled her eyes, pushed aside the crowd, and said, "You girl is really tricky, the elders are here, how can you let it go?" ”
"Heh......" Shen Xi sneered, "Who came to other people's houses early in the morning to make a splash?" I'm embarrassed to say it. Aren't you all idle? ”
Wang Caihua said sharply, "What a little hoof with sharp teeth and sharp mouth, he is presumptuous in front of your aunt and grandmother!" I'll tell you, we're here to collect debts today. ”
Shen Xi laughed, "Debt collection, do you have an IOU?" When did our family go into debt to you? ”
Wang Caihua's face turned blue, "You made the fraud go to the IOU." You must return the money to us today, or ......."
"How else?" Shen Xi took a look at Hengwang cauliflower.
Wang Caihua looked at the already dilapidated house and pointed at it, "If you don't pay it back, I will tear down your shed, push the house, and destroy the medicine field." ”
"You didn't rinse your mouth when you got up, did you?" Shen Xi squinted at her.
Wang Caihua shook her body strangely and said, "I washed my teeth with salt, who said I didn't rinse my mouth." ”
"Since you've washed your mouth, why are you still breathing so much?" Shen Xi sneered.
Wang Caihua was a handful of years old, but she didn't expect to plant her head in the hands of this yellow-haired girl, her face turned red, and she said hatefully: "I see that you are really impatient to live, pay back the money, if you don't pay back, you will lift the roof of your house." ”
"In broad daylight, you want to forcibly demolish my house, is there a royal law in the end?" Shen Xiyi was righteous, "You are so good! ”
Wang Caihua couldn't speak anymore, covered her chest, and said straightly: "You, you ......"
Zhuang Shi came out of the house, she was dressed plainly, only wearing a dark Confucian skirt, inserting a hairpin, no fat powder, looking a little haggard, but her expression was very resolute. She has a solemn expression, gestures, and an otherworldly temperament. She opened her lips lightly and said lightly: "Since I am here to ask for debts, just say it well, why bother to mobilize the people so much." ”
Wang Caihua knew that Zhuang's had always been docile and easy to bully, so she rolled up her sleeves, approached her, raised her hand, and pointed at Zhuang's, "Okay, you are a cheap...... Yes! ”
Shen Xi didn't know when he picked up the bamboo pole and smashed it on Wang Caihua's hand, "You try it with your finger again?" Believe it or not, I broke your hand. ”
Wang Caihua covered her hands and cried wow, "What a poisonous stinky girl, see if I don't kill you today!" ”
The villagers on the side finally couldn't stand it anymore and came to pull Wang Caihua one after another. They were not afraid that Wang Caihua would hurt Shen Xi, but that Shen Xi would beat Wang Caihua to death.
Among them, the older Wang Jiubo came out to speak, "Shen Lin's daughter-in-law, you know that she has always had a bad mouth in Cauliflower, and you have a lot of adults, so don't hear it." We have come here for nothing other than to ask for some fairy ointment to heal our children. At the beginning, your Xiaoxi was sick, and our fellow villagers all helped. You can't die without help. ”
Zhuang Shi blessed Wang Jiubo and said: "It's still Wang Jiubo's reasoning, you are in trouble, if I have the ability to help, I will naturally not die without help." It's just that I'm not a doctor, how can I save him. ”
Wang Jiubo looked at the others and said, "I don't have to hide it here. Today, I'll make it clear. The method of planting fairy spirit grass that your Xiaoxi said is not effective at all. ”
Zhuang listened quietly.
Wang Jiubo said bluntly, "We now understand that fairy spirit grass is not something that ordinary people can grow, and we no longer dare to expect this matter." It's just that the IOU for that day can be returned to us. You know, we're all rednecks, and it's not easy to save some money. ”
Zhuang nodded and said, "Uncle Wang Jiu is reasonable, it's just an IOU, I have already taken it back, and I will give it to you again, wouldn't I borrow a sum of money from you again." ”
Wang Jiubo's face immediately fell.
"However," Zhuang added, "I won't rely on your money, and I won't wait until my family Xi'er grows this batch of fairy spirit grass and sells it, so that the money will come in." Until then, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do. ”
Wang Jiubo saw that he was expected to ask for debts, his face softened, and after looking at others, he said: "Yesterday, you have seen Shen Si, his children and our children have been bitten by rat spirits, and their lives are worried, and they are not healed by fairy spirit ointment. Doctor Yang said, this fairy ointment is the same price as silver, and we really have no choice, so we came to ask you for help. ”
"I see." Zhuang looked at Shen Xi and said, "Xi'er, go get the medicine box and the money box." ”
Shen Xi knew Zhuang's intentions, and although he was a little reluctant, he still went to get it.
Zhuang's heart is kind, and he will never see death without help. The villagers were also used by the Shen Wang clan before, so they would be like that.
Shen Xi's movements were very fast, and after a while, he took out the table, stool, money box, medicine box, scale, etc.
Zhuang sat on the bench and saw that he took out Wang Jiubo's IOU, a total of seven taels, "How much fairy spirit grass do you want, how much silver do you want?" ”
"Two people in my family have been bitten, and they need four taels of fairy ointment." Wang Jiubo gestured with his fingers.
"Xi'er, call the four taels of fairy spirit ointment." Zhuang Shi said, "Uncle Wang, please go back, tell me and the villagers for me, my Shen Zhuang will never rely on people's money, if there is an emergency at home, even if I smash the pot and sell iron, sell the land, I will pay back the money." Please don't worry, folks. At the beginning, when my husband Shen Lin was here, he took care of everyone, and he personally paid for the stone canal in the village. I have given everyone a lot of convenience, and I hope that the villagers will also have some convenience with me, a widow. ”
Wang Jiubo's face turned red, he took the fairy ointment and silver money in Shen Xi's hand, and said again and again: "That's nature, that's nature." ”
Soon, the Zhuang family sent all these people away, including the spicy Wang Caihua. Just because Shen Xi injured her hand, she gave her some more fairy ointment.
Zhuang took out the remaining IOUs and counted them carefully.
Shen Xi asked with concern, "How much did you pay back this time?" ”
"I paid back a lot, plus your grandmother's ten taels, and there are only thirty-two taels and seven dollars left. We only have about twenty taels on hand, which is not enough to pay off. Zhuang sighed.
Shen Xi comforted: "Mother, you don't have to worry, the money will be repaid soon, I will go to Xishan today and pick a batch of fairy grass, so that the money will definitely be repaid." ”
When Zhuang heard that she was going to Xishan, he immediately became nervous, "Xi'er, there are rat spirits in Xishan, you better not go, the fairy spirit grass in this field has already sprouted, you don't have to take risks." ”
Shen Xi smiled: "Mother, don't worry, the rat spirits only bite them." They must have angered the mountain gods. I've been there so many times before, and I haven't seen any rat spirits, they won't bite me, don't worry. ”
