Chapter 237: Forced Debt

Three low thatched huts, with half-man-high fence walls slanted, as if they would fall down at any moment if the wind blew.

There was hardly anything decent in the room except for a table and two broken stools, and it could be said that the house was surrounded by four walls.

This is Fang Zhongyou's home.

Qiduo, Tan Dejin, and Tang Hu looked at the scene in front of them and shook their heads, they were really poor.

After Fang Zhongyou shouted at the house, he wiped and wiped the only two benches with his sleeves a little crampedly, and invited the three of them to sit.

After hearing him talk about the situation at home before, Qiduo wanted to come to his house to see if he could help.

Fang Zhongyou's house is really not close to Luhuapo, and the road is not easy to walk, so the carriage traveled for more than half an hour to reach the small Fangzhuang where his family lived.

With his previous call, a middle-aged woman with a thin body came out of the room on the left.

'Loyal friend, why are you back again, what can you do with the owner's words, you can't make the owner embarrassed. As she walked, she talked, and the room was dimly lit, and for a moment she did not notice that a guest had come to her house.

When she finished speaking, when she raised her head, she found that there were seven more people in the family, and she was stunned and hurriedly looked at her son.

Fang Zhongyou hurriedly introduced the identities of the three of Qiduo.

I heard that Qiduo and Tan Dejin are Fang Zhongyou's owners, and Tang Hu is his housekeeper, Fang's mother was anxious, and she didn't know if her son had caused something, so she asked the owner to chase her home.

'Boss, is there something loyal and friendly that you are not doing well enough?' Please don't blame him, it's the old woman, I'm not angry, and I'm not in good health. He is filial. Don't worry about me. If you have to take leave to come back to take care of me, it's all the old woman and I have tired him. Ask the owner to be gracious, next time I won't let him go home, don't quit him, okay? Fang's mother begged Tan Dejin very anxiously.

Qiduo Zhilu said that she had misunderstood the meaning of the three of them.

She looked at Fang's mother, dressed in a gray coarse cloth with several blue patches on it, her hair was a little unkempt, and her face was vegetable. He has wrinkles on his forehead and looks like he is about fifty years old.

Before Fang Zhongyou was in the carriage, he said that his mother is only forty years old this year, and she should be too tired and tired by the burden of life, so she looks so old and vicissitudes.

Tan Dejin hurriedly said, "Aunt Fang, you misunderstood, we didn't say anything about loyalty, we just heard him say that your old man and Dong'er are not in good health, so let's come and take a look." ‘

Listen to what he has to say. Fang's mother breathed a sigh of relief, and now the family's life is all dependent on her son working long hours to earn money. Without this job, the family of three would really have no way to live.

But at the same time, I was pleasantly surprised that the other party had such an owner, where was the family of a long-term worker sick, and the owner also came over to see it from a long distance, which was the first time I had heard of it.

Fang's mother is very grateful to Qiduo's father and daughter, and more respectful, such a host is rare.

After a few people said a few words, Fang's mother was busy boiling water to make tea for Qiduo, but was stopped by Qiduo, where did they have the heart to drink tea.

Fang Zhongyou hurriedly asked Fang's mother, 'Mother, what about Dong'er, he is better now. ‘

As soon as she mentioned her grandson, Fang's mother's face was suddenly clouded with gloom, and she shook her head, "Dong'er's illness is good and bad, and it is good during the day, but at night, the body is very hot, and I don't know what to do." ”

Hearing his mother say this, Fang Zhongyou hurriedly rushed into the room to take a look.

"Auntie, can you ask Lang Zhong to come and take a look at Dong'er and see what is going on with him?" Qiduo asked.

Fang Mu nodded, "Back to the seventh girl, I invited Lang Zhong to come and see it, but Lang Zhong didn't know what was going on." Alas, what can be done about this? ”

As she spoke, she began to wipe away her tears.

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Fang Zhongyou shouting anxiously in the house, "Mother, mother, Dong'er has cramps." ”

"Ahh Fang Mu exclaimed in surprise, and didn't bother to greet Qiduo and them, and hurriedly rushed into the house.

Qiduo's brows furrowed tightly, and he looked at Tan Dejin, and the father and daughter also followed into the house.

Tang Hu was ashamed and followed behind.

The room was not big, and there were seven more of them at once, and the three of them suddenly felt a little crowded.

In the dim light, I saw Fang Zhongyou holding a small person in his arms, which should be his three-year-old son Dong'er.

Dong'er's body was tired from convulsions, and she found a low moan of pain.

"Dong'er, my Dong'er." Fang's mother watched from the side and wiped her tears.

The three of them were all heartbroken, and their eyes were red at the same time.

"Zhongyou, the child has cramps, and he is still stunned about what to do, hurry up and ask the doctor to go." Tan Dejin scolded with a calm face, Liulang had the experience of being sick, and he could best understand the feeling of being a father when a child was sick.

"Yes." Fang Zhongyou choked up, but he didn't get up immediately, he just looked at Fang Mu, and there seemed to be embarrassment on his face.

"Brother Fang, but he doesn't have any money?" Qiduo saw it and asked hurriedly.

Fang Zhongyou bowed his head in shame, and Fang's mother wiped her tears and replied, "I owe Lang Zhong the medicine fee last time, and I am afraid that this time it will be ......."

"Sister-in-law, take this little money, hurry up and take the child to see a doctor." Tang Hu Lily took out about a penny of broken silver from his arms and stuffed it into Fang's mother's hand.

"It's not going to be done." Entering the silver, Fang Mu felt that her hands were burned, where did she dare to ask for it.

"Auntie, now is not the time to be polite, take Dong'er to see a doctor first, and it's not too late to say anything later." Qiduo was busy.

Tang Hu ignored Fang's mother and went directly out of the room to prepare the carriage.

Fang Mu gritted her teeth and nodded, "Okay, the old woman won't say anything now, loyal friend, hurry up and take Dong'er away." ”

Fang Zhongyou hugged Dong'er, and several people went out of the room together.

Saving people is like fighting fires, and everyone didn't have too many kind words, Fang Zhongyou hugged Dong'er and got into the carriage, Tan Dejin and Qiduo also followed, and Fang's mother stayed to take care of the family.

Fang's mother wiped her eyes and muttered that she had met a good person.

Thinking that Qiduo and they came all the way over, and they were Fang Zhongyou's owner, they should be treated well.

It's just that the family is destitute and has nothing, and only two hens laying eggs are still things.

The two chickens laid eggs, and she and her grandson were reluctant to eat them, so they saved up and went to the market to exchange some oil and salt.

But in order to entertain the seven flowers. She decided to kill one. Then go to the vegetable field behind the house to pick some greens and come back. Although it is shabby, it can only be like this for now, and I believe that the three of them will not be blamed.

After making a decision, Fang's mother wiped away her tears and went into the house to prepare.

A young woman dressed in green, twisting her waist, walked over, looked at Fang's mother's back and called, "Auntie." Why did you enter the house as soon as you saw me? ”

The young woman was followed by two muscular young men.

Hearing this woman's voice, Fang Mu's complexion changed several times, and at the same time, her head hurt.

She turned back very reluctantly, squeezing out a strong smile, "It's Jin Lian, why do you have time to come over today?" ”

This woman in green is the daughter-in-law of Fang's mother's eldest brother, named Wu Jinlian.

Wu Jinlian raised her chin, "Auntie, you should know what I'm doing today." It's time to give me back the five taels of silver. ”

"Jin Lian, what's the situation at my aunt's house. You don't know. Dong'er and I have both been sick this month, and now we still owe money for medicine in Langzhong, Dong'er has just been sick again, and Zhongyou has taken him to see Langzhong again.

Jin Lian, let's hold off a little longer, and when Zhongyou pays the salary, will I give it to you? Fang Mu let out a long sigh and pleaded in a low voice.

"Auntie, for the sake of our two families being relatives, I've been relieving you for a long time. I have the money to see a doctor for my grandson, why don't I have the money to pay me back, no, you must pay me back this silver today, otherwise, don't blame me Wu Jinlian is welcome. Wu Jinlian squinted at Fang Mu and said very ruthlessly.

When the two young men who followed her heard this, they forced Fang Mu to her side, glaring at Fang Mu fiercely.

It seems like I'm going to eat Fang's mother.

Fang's mother felt a pang in her heart, and she knew that Wu Jinlian was her nephew and daughter-in-law, but she didn't know what to do, and she thought that it was the landlord's wife who came to force the debt.

Big brother, why did you marry such a daughter-in-law, can you be blind under the nine springs?

"Jin Lian, I really don't have any money, it's useless for you to force me, even if you beat the old woman to death, I won't have any money. Jin Lian, please read about the past relationship between our two families, whether it is okay to be more lenient, I really can't help it. Fang's mother begged helplessly, but she didn't kneel down for Hu Jinlian.

"Auntie, don't cry to me for poverty, loyal friends are working long hours for others, and there are at least a few hundred wen a month, which has been done for several months, and I have already saved enough. Auntie, I'm already very polite to you, I don't count the profits, don't toast and don't eat and drink, be happy, save yourself from tearing your face and being ugly. Hu Jinlian sneered and looked at Fang's mother with disdain.

She stood in the courtyard, looked around, then pointed to the three thatched huts and said, "If you really don't have any money, you can get these three houses, plus the acre of land behind your house." ”

Three thatched huts and an acre of dry land are the most reluctant industries of the Fang family, if they were really given to Wu Jinlian, then Fang's mother and Dong'er would not even have a place to stay, not to mention food in the future, they would not even be able to eat a single green vegetable.

This is pushing yourself to death.

Fang's mother was furious, "Wu Jinlian, why are you so ruthless, if I had the silver, I wouldn't have given it to you a long time ago." Do you have a long conscience, I think at the beginning, if I hadn't made a match, you would have been able to marry Changhe.

Unexpectedly, now you turn your face and don't recognize people, telling you that you are really going to force your wife to a dead end, and I will not let you go as a ghost. Wu Jinlian, you are too ruthless. ”

"What? You old slut dare to scold me, you have eaten leopard gall, what are you still doing in a daze, clean up this old slut for me. Wu Jinlian completely lowered her face and instructed the two behind her to beat Fang's mother.

The two young men nodded, and strode forward, about to pull Fang Mu.

'Huh', a carriage stopped steadily at the door of Fang's house, it was the carriage of the Qiduo family.

Tang Hu, who was sitting in front of the car to catch the car, saw the situation in the yard and immediately shouted, "Stop." ”

Then he jumped out of the carriage and rushed into the yard.

Tan Dejin and Qiduo also got out of the carriage, Fang Zhongyou came down with Dong'er in his arms, and when he saw Wu Jinlian in the courtyard, his face suddenly turned black as ink. (To be continued......)
