"Why can't this work? Let me tell you Yang Bailao, if you are willing to use your Xi'er to pay off the debt, it is still our young master's kindness, you don't want to think about this Xi'er when she arrives at the young master's house, if you don't have to be raised by the young master, how much advantage you have taken inside and out! Mu Renzhi opened his eyes and said nonsense.

"No, no, please, Mr. Mu, help me think of another way, I, I can't do without Xi'er!" Yang Bai pleaded bitterly.

At this time, Tang Ning really couldn't stand it, so he shouted: "Mu Renzhi, how much does Uncle Yang owe your family?" ”

"Huh? Why do you ask this? Could it be that you can still pay off Yang Bailao's debts? Mu Renzhi rolled his eyes and said disdainfully to Tang Ning.

But to his surprise, Tang Ning actually nodded and replied: "That's right, I just want to pay off the debt for Uncle Yang, but I have to know how much money I owe, if there is a flower account, I don't care." ”

Mu Renzhi looked Tang Ning up and down for a long time, and then said: "Da Chun, your tone is not small, then Cheng, I will calculate it in front of Yang Bailao." Lao Yang has a total of six acres of land, and last year he was in arrears with five buckets of rent, this summer is four and a half buckets, and in the autumn he adds five buckets and five buckets, which is a total of one stone and five buckets of rent.

Then there is money, when Lao Yang's wife died, he borrowed five yuan to buy a coffin; The year before last, Lao Yang was sick, and he sent Da Chun to borrow two and a half yuan; Last year, I borrowed three yuan, and when I borrowed these money, I said that it was five cents of interest, and the profit and rolling interest were a total of twenty-five yuan and five cents! ”

In the end, Mu Renzhi triumphantly asked Tang Ning, "How is it?" Da Chun, now you still dare to boast that you can't pay off the debt for Lao Yang? You poor boy, have you ever seen twenty-five dollars in your life? ”

Tang Ning snorted coldly and didn't answer, he directly reached out and took out a large handful of silver dollars from his pocket, threw them on the table and said, "This is a total of twenty-eight pieces of modern ocean, which is enough to pay off Uncle Yang's debts, right?" ”

Seeing the large handful of silver dollars that Tang Ning threw on the table, everyone in the room was stupid, and after a long time, Mu Renzhi picked up and identified the silver dollars on the table one by one, and then asked with an incredulous face: "You, where did you get this money?" ”

Tang Ning replied coldly, "Where do you care where I come from?" Let me ask you, is this ocean real? Is it enough to repay Uncle Yang's debts? ”

Mu Renzhi's eyes rolled for a long time, then nodded and said, "That's right, it's true, it's enough to pay off Yang Bailao, then I'll take it." ”

But just as he was about to take the silver dollars on the table, Tang Ning stopped him: "Don't be in a hurry to take it, take Uncle Yang's IOU first, and you can take these silver dollars away after the silver goods are in good hands." ”

Mu Renzhi pondered for a long time, and then replied: "I didn't bring the IOU, so let's wait until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, I will take all the IOUs of Lao Yang, and we will pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, how about it?" ”

"Good! Then I'll be waiting for you! Tang Ning happily agreed.

After Mu Renzhi left, Aunt Wang grabbed Tang Ning and asked with a frown, "Da Chun, where did you get so much money?" Yang Bailao and Xi'er on the side also waited for Tang Ning's explanation.

To be honest, Tang Ning really didn't think about this problem, because he couldn't say that these silver dollars were exchanged by him in the system, right? So I had to say casually: "This is what I picked up in the ground when I went to pick tung seeds the day before yesterday, and there are more than 100 pieces of the ocean in that big bag!" ”

Normally, tung seeds are picked after frost, but because Huang Shiren is extremely mean to his long-term workers, none of the long-term workers have done their best to work for him, so in fact, there are still a lot of tung seeds that have not been picked, so Dachun and others often go to pick up the leaks and pick a little leftover tung seeds.

At that time, it was in the period of world war, tung oil as a strategic material was extremely sought-after, in Shanghai, a hundred catties of tung oil can be sold to as many as 17 oceans, which is one of the important export commodities of our country at that time. (Another sought-after strategic item that everyone can't think of is bristles.) ）

After listening to Tang Ning's explanation, Yang Bailao guessed: "Is it the money bag that the bandits nearby inadvertently lost when passing by our village after robbing it, and it was picked up by Da Chun?" ”

In fact, Yang Bailao's speculation is not unreasonable, because the bandits in Hebei at that time were extremely rampant, although they did not reach the point of beards everywhere in the northeast, but they were not much worse, and there were often bandits who came down from the mountains to rob, so Tang Ning, who was worried that there was no suitable excuse, hurriedly echoed: "That's right, that's right, that's how it should be." ”

Although I don't know if this guess is true or not, I finally breathed a sigh of relief: "That Dachun, your luck is really good!" Then he changed his words and said: "But Da Chun, this is a debt I owe, how can I let you pay it?" ”

Tang Ning retorted brightly: "Uncle Yang, why are our two families still talking such nonsense? Isn't your family's business my family's business, and didn't you all agree to marry Xi'er to me, I can't watch my future daughter-in-law being captured by Huang Shiren's bastard, right? ”

Aunt Wang echoed on the side: "That's it, Uncle Yang, don't think about it, now keeping Xi'er is the most important thing, don't you see how Gui Zhi in the village died after being arrested by Huang Shiren the year before last, is it possible that you also want Xi'er to jump into that fire pit?" ”

Aunt Wang said that Gui Zhi is the daughter of another family in the village, and Xi'er's experience is similar, and the family owes Huang Shiren money, but he was arrested and taken away, but before a year, the Huang family said that Gui Zhi was sick and died, but I heard the Huang family's long-term worker say that Gui Zhi was ruined to death by Huang Shiren, not only had to work during the day, but also had to be ruined by him at night.

What's even more unimaginable is that they also stuffed the cat into Gui Zhi's crotch, tied the trouser tube and belt tightly, and let the cat's paws scratch Gui Zhi, Huang Shiren and Mu Renzhi and a bunch of dog legs watched Gui Zhi who was tortured rolling on the ground and screaming and laughed, these guys are simply not human! (This is the real story, from Jack Bell's "China Shocks the World")

Hearing Aunt Wang talk about Gui Zhi, Xi'er suddenly turned pale with fright, grabbed Tang Ning, and pleaded with palpitations: "Brother Dachun, I, I won't be caught by the Huang family, right?" ”

Tang Ning patted her little hand and comforted: "Don't worry, with Brother Da Chun here, no one can bully you!" ”

And Aunt Wang and Yang Bailao looked at the two children like this, glanced at each other, and then nodded tacitly.

PS: I recommend Chen Kun's new drama "Get Out", in this drama, Chen Kun's acting skills exploded, one person played two roles, and he couldn't tell that he was 42 at all.
