Here, Liu Ximing took his two younger brothers to the novice village to explore the road and open the map, but the family was in a different situation.

Liu Chen heard the three sons laughing and walked out, and quickly added a handful of firewood to the stove, thinking to himself, "A few little guys are estimated to be back soon, and we have to hurry up and make the meal before they come back." ”

While the water in the pot was still not boiling, Liu Chen walked to the side house, opened the grain storage cabinet in the corner of the house, looked at the grain that was about to bottom out, and sighed, a trace of sorrow lingered in his heart.

Frowning and thinking for a moment, he took out three eggs from the cupboard. After hesitating for a moment, he put the two eggs back, thought about it and took them out again.

"The third and fourth children are also suffering these days, let's make up for each of them," Liu Chen said to himself.

As soon as he put the eggs into the small pot next to the stove and boiled them, Liu Chen suddenly heard a loud voice roar in the courtyard: "What about people? Liu's family, come out quickly, Master Zhang is here! ”

Liu Chen was shocked, this is a little bit, what are Zhang Yucheng and them doing here?

I straightened my clothes and hurriedly walked out.

I saw two men coming in the courtyard at some point, the first one was a sharp-beaked monkey cheek, wearing a blue muslin collared gown, with a net towel wrapped around his head, thinking about the house, his face full of impatience; A fat-headed and big-eared one in the back was wearing an agarwood-colored silk cloth round-necked robe and a six-in-one hat, and his expression was full of arrogance.

"Rare guests, rare guests, it is difficult for Master Zhang to get a trip to the cold house, and it is inconvenient for my sons to be at home, so I will not invite a few people to sit in the house." Liu Chen Shiqiang said to the person behind him with a smile.

"Hey, hey, hey, if it's okay, who's going to come to your place." The sharp-beaked monkey cheeks accosted. He looked inside, "Yo, it's cooking." It's just right, let's finish talking about things in a few clicks, and we won't delay you from cooking for a few little cubs in your family. ”

"Dare to ask Master Zhang what is valuable?" Liu Chen ignored this sharp-beaked monkey's gills, she knew that the more you pay attention to this kind of villain, the more energetic he becomes.

Hey, this sharp-mouthed monkey looked at Liu Chen's ignoring him, raised his face and wanted to scold a few words.

"Okay, Zhang Da, you stand down." Zhang Yucheng waved his hand at Zhang Da.

He turned his head and said to Liu Chen with a smile: "Master Ben also has nothing to do in the Three Treasures Palace, there have been a lot of things at home recently, and his money is a little tight. Liu family, you should pay back the money you borrowed from my family, right? ”

Liu Chen was taken aback: "Master Zhang, when I borrowed it at the beginning, I said it in black and white, this silver is for a year, and now there is still more than a month!" ”

Zhang Yucheng's face changed: "What's the difference between one month and two months, in short, I want it now!" ”

"Master Zhang, you can't be unreasonable, now I really don't have any money." Liu Chen pleaded.

Hehehe, Zhang Da said gloomily beside him: "In this Zhangjiawan, our old man Zhang is the sky, and his old man said that if you have to pay it back today, you have to pay it back today!" ”

Liu Chen begged bitterly: "The funeral period of the late husband is not over yet, for the sake of my orphans and widows, I also ask Master Zhang to raise his noble hand, and I really have a period of grace, but now I really have no money." ”

Zhang Yucheng regained his smile and said without a smile: "I don't have money today, but I will have money in a month?" I think it's better to collect the money today, so as not to run out of water in a month. ”

Liu Chen almost shed tears, so he could only keep begging.

"Hey, hey, you said your family doesn't have any money, and I can't see it. Isn't there still five acres of paddy fields in your family, look at you a woman with a few and a half children, it is not easy for you to plant this land, it is better to pay off the debt to me, for the sake of the villagers, I will give you three taels of silver per mu, just to offset the debt, what do you think? Zhang Yucheng said slowly.

Liu Chen's face changed suddenly: "At the beginning, I only borrowed ten taels of silver, and the interest was three points, and the total should be thirteen taels or six dollars, where did I get fifteen taels?" Besides, my family's field is clearly a field, and it is worth at least fifty taels, how can there be a reason for three taels! ”

Zhang Yucheng's face collapsed again, and he began to become impatient: "Profit, how to calculate the account, can you understand better than me?" Folks, can I still trap you, this matter is decided today. ”

As soon as Zhang Da heard this, he was ready to step forward to catch that Liu Chen.

Liu Ximing happened to see such a situation when the three brothers came back.

"Stop!" Liu Ximing roared and rushed towards Zhang Da, and the two younger brothers shouted and pushed Zhang Da too.

Zhang Da was caught off guard and was pushed and staggered, and when he turned around, he saw that it was the three boys of the Liu family, so he got up and grabbed Liu Xixian and Liu Xi'an and threw them to the ground, and kicked them hard at the same time. The two children are small and small, but they can't break free.

Liu Ximing saw this situation, and the two middle-aged men and their three brothers estimated that they couldn't beat them, so they rushed out with a kitchen knife in the kitchen next to them, and roared wildly: "your grandma, old dog, is it really that there is no man in the Liu family!" ”

After roaring, Liu Ximing took the knife and slashed at Zhang Da and Zhang Yucheng. was so frightened that Zhang Da hurriedly let go of Liu Xixian and Liu Xi'an, and fell back, and Zhang Yucheng was also so frightened that he retreated again and again.

Liu Ximing saw that his two younger brothers were okay and didn't dare to come forward to chase them, pulled them behind him, blocked in front of his mother, and said viciously to Zhang Yucheng: "If you have something to say, who dares to move your hands and feet, don't blame Lao Tzu for not recognizing people with the knife in his hand!" ”

Zhang Yucheng and Zhang Da were all so frightened that their faces turned pale and they didn't come back to their senses for a while.

There's no way, it's really Liu Ximing's performance is too terrifying, who in this Zhangjiawan has ever seen a twelve-year-old child with such ability, and the two of them are used to running rampant in the village, and they have long been accustomed to the submissiveness of the poor ghosts, and they were also panicked when they encountered this at first glance.

Liu Chen was surprised and delighted, surprised that this Zhang family wanted to do it directly, and didn't want any face, but happy that although her husband was gone, she still had a few sons to rely on, seeing the second son standing in front of him heroically, Liu Chen's tears couldn't help but flow down.

"Have you seen the ancestors of the Liu family? There is a successor to the Liu family! ”

Zhang Yucheng and the two ran a few steps back, and when they saw that Liu Ximing did not continue to chase after them, they breathed a sigh of relief. Hearing Liu Ximing say this, Zhang Yucheng said angrily: "Little rabbit cub, it is natural to repay debts, and I will take advantage of it when I say that I will break the sky!" ”

Liu Ximing's eyes froze, glared at Zhang Yucheng, and said angrily: "Who the hell are you talking about being a rabbit cub?" ”

Zhang Yucheng was so frightened by this stare that his neck shrank, and then he remembered that Liu Ximing was only a teenager, and he held back his fear, twisted his neck calmly, and muttered: "I'm still afraid of you...... The baby can't do it, wait for Lao Tzu to call all the manpower, see who is afraid of whom! ”

Liu Ximing listened to Zhang Yucheng muttering there, and vaguely heard the second half of the sentence, and was also shocked.

Indeed, only his family is the only one in this Zhangjiawan, and if there is a conflict, I am afraid that my own family will suffer. Not to mention anything else, just the two adults in front of them, if they really want to get out of the way, they can also knock down a few of their brothers.

Liu Ximing pondered how to end today's occasion, and Zhang Yucheng and the two didn't know what to do in the future, so the scene was quiet for a while.

At this moment, I saw Aunt Wu rushing over with a strong man, and I kept shouting: "What's the matter, folks in my hometown, look down and don't look up, don't hurt the harmony." ”

When the two of them came closer, Aunt Wu asked the strong man to pull Zhang Yucheng and the others on the one hand, but on the other hand, she quietly blocked the Liu family behind her, and kept persuading: "Oh, there is something to say, something to say!" ”

Liu Ximing and Liu Chen's hearts were warm, knowing that Aunt Wu was helping them.

Liu Ximing saw that Aunt Wu was interrupting, the atmosphere eased, just got off the donkey down the slope, put away the kitchen knife, looked around a few people and said slowly: "I don't want to fight for my life, but Master Zhang deceives people too much!" As everyone knows, the strong man was angry, and blood was splashed five steps! ”

Zhang Yucheng was also relieved when he heard Liu Ximing call him Master Zhang, and twisted: "This is all Zhang Da, who doesn't know how to be polite!" ”

Zhang Da......

"But there is still a saying for today's events, can you be the master of the house, the second baby?"

Liu Ximing turned his head to his mother to ask for details, and when he heard that Zhang Yucheng wanted his own land to pay him at a low price, he couldn't help but shake the kitchen knife in his hand. He held back his anger, turned back to Zhang Yucheng and said: "Of course, it is natural to repay debts, but there is a basis for black and white, and my family will naturally repay the money on time after a month." ”

Zhang Yucheng also figured it out after such a while, seeing that Liu Ximing didn't dare to show his knife, knowing that it was his own family who had the final say in Zhangjiawan after all, he sneered: "It's not impossible to repay it after a month, but if your family can't pay off the debt, then you have to use the land to pay off the debt!" ”

Grass and mud horses, Liu Ximing couldn't wait to kill this dog directly, and argued with Zhang Yucheng for a few words, seeing that the old dog still refused to let go, knowing that if he didn't agree, he was afraid that it would be difficult to be good today. He thought about it for a while, Lao Tzu is a dignified traverser, I don't believe that I can't even get over this hurdle, and promised him that I will think about it in the long run.

"Okay, according to what you said, if I don't pay off my debt in a month, I'll use my land to pay off the debt!"

Aunt Wu gave Liu Ximing a frenzied look beside her.

Liu Chen was also shocked, and hurriedly went to pull Liu Ximing's sleeve, but saw his son turn his head and nodded to her with firm eyes, not knowing why his hand was loose.

Zhang Yucheng was overjoyed when he heard this: "This is what you said yourself, if you don't pay the money by then, don't think about denying it, hehehe!" ”

But I heard Liu Ximing say again: "I haven't finished speaking, the gentleman is hard to chase after him, but if you dare to come again in this month, don't blame me for the knife in my hand is not welcome!" ”

Zhang Yucheng got the promise, it was too late to be happy, how could he care about his threatening words, and said with a smile: "Okay, good, good, rest assured, this master is also a person with a head and a face, a spit and a nail!" If there is any reason to go back on one's word, then don't let it go. Zhang Da, go home. ”

Zhang Da hurriedly followed, walked a few steps, and asked Zhang Yucheng unwillingly: "Master, that's all for today?" ”

Zhang Yucheng looked at him with a disillusioned face and said, "If you don't count it like this, how can you count it, you go to block the knife for Master Ben?" Call more people next time! Besides, didn't I come here today just for his family's land, I don't believe that this poor family can come up with any money other than the field. A month later, hum, no one in this Zhangjiawan can take advantage of me! ”
