Chapter 21: Words are hard to say

Li Gouyu lost all the money on his body, and the whole person was stunned! His body trembled, he stood up weakly, and the gambling house was noisy, but for him the whole world fell silent.

What to do? The family is waiting for dinner, and the son of several months is waiting to be fed, knowing that this good luck is gone, and he will not gamble anything.

In the silence, he felt like he had lost his soul! There are losses and wins, and it must have been God who let himself lose just now, and he can win more.

Thinking about it this way, I don't regret losing it just now! Biting it, he went to the shopkeeper of the gambling house: "Look at it, what can I do, give me some capital." ”

The shopkeeper glanced at him and looked at the money bag on the counter! Since the big shopkeeper wants to teach this kid a lesson, it's easy to say.

"Yes! Twenty copper coins for a padded jacket, ten oceans for a wife! One acre of land is twenty oceans, children are five oceans, and houses are fifty oceans. The shopkeeper looked at Li Gouyu with a smile.

"I deserve, when a padded jacket!" Twenty copper coins, if you are lucky, you can earn two handfuls, and when the time comes, you can redeem it for double the price.

"Don't worry, brother! You can also borrow it before borrowing it on the same day, repay it on the same day, repay eleven of ten oceans, pay off a dividend, return thirteen oceans on the second day, fifteen oceans on the third day, for half a month, you have to repay twenty oceans, twenty-five oceans a month, think about it! "The shopkeeper threw the bait.

Listen to what the casino shopkeeper says! Li Gouyu's body trembled, he was nervous, he was originally a gambler, he thought he could win! In other words, if you win, you will pay one more.

Lose! Don't talk about it, I'm sure I'll be able to turn over and make a big one.

"Lend me ten, no! Twenty oceans. "Li Gou's heart is broken.

"Well said, well said!" The shopkeeper of the gambling house lifted the money bag that Wang Fu gave him, asked him to sign and draw, and threw it to Li Gouyu.

Li Gouyu was excited, and went to gamble again! Gambling for an hour in a row, it looks like you're lucky! Won forty or fifty oceans in his hand.

Some of the gamblers around him persuaded him to get rich! Hurry up and replace the borrowed money, and don't gamble today.

But as a gambler, it's time to be lucky! How could it be possible to listen to persuasion and continue to gamble.

Now that it's dawn, the small bet has made Li Gou not satisfied, but the bet is bigger! Soon the money in hand returned to the Twenty Oceans.

Li Gouyu shuddered and gritted his teeth! Trembling, he staked them all.

Fifteen o'clock small!

The dealer opened the cards, and Li Gou was left in a cold sweat! Lost all again, this gambling addiction! I don't want to leave if I win, I want to make a profit when I lose, and I borrow money from the gambling house once and twice.

After Li Gou lost everything, he gritted his teeth and went to the shopkeeper to borrow money! This is a loan shark, and the shopkeeper has no good face at this time.

"If I lend it to you again, what will you pay back? If you want to borrow it, then you have to press something! If you still lose, go to the account according to your daughter every other day, if you haven't had it in a month! You have to pay for what you have bet on. ”

Li Gou wanted to take off his padded jacket, but if he thought about it, he pressed the padded jacket here, and it was only twenty copper coins, which was too little! Thinking about it again, his wife and children can't be pressed, and he also has a little conscience, so he pressed the two acres of land at home, and forty oceans is enough to turn over the book by himself.

"My home is in Shangli Village, and I still have two acres of land at home! Press it on you, hurry up and give me the money. ”

The shopkeeper's gloomy smile made Li Gou sign and draw! Throwing the money to him, Li Gouyu's originally frustrated face became uplifted, and he continued to gamble with the money.

The sun is on the sun, and all the bets are gone! After going back and forth, he Li Gou had gambling and no humanity, pressed his wife and children, and finally gritted his teeth and mortgaged the house.

On the third pole of the day, five or six members of Li Gou's family are stretching their necks! I haven't eaten for a day, and I'm waiting for Li Gou to buy food and go home.

The daughter-in-law and the old lady look out from time to time! But I didn't see the figure of Li Gouyu, the daughter-in-law and the old lady were worried, and the old man Li, who was sixty or seventy years old, had a bad premonition.

"! Why don't you go to your daughter's house and borrow a few catties of food! After two or three months, there will be food, and then it will be returned to the daughter. ”

When he said this, Old Man Li felt that his old face was burning in a panic! It's been a month or two, but I've borrowed it two or three times, and it's time for the New Year! There is surplus food at home, but not a grain of rice is lent to the girl.

In February, the second dragon raised its head and broke its tendons in the spring! March 3 was single, and at that time, everything recovered, and life was a little better on wild vegetables.

The eldest and second in the family have already been divided, and there is no surplus food! There is no way to do it.

"Hey! If you can't pull this side, I'll go for a trip! The old lady staggered and walked out of the house, and she couldn't carry too much when she went! She understood what the old man meant, and her own going showed that the family would not borrow much.

I feel a little better.

"Mother! What are you going to do, this time the dog will definitely be able to buy a lot of food, I'm afraid it's delayed on the way! Li Gouyu's wife shouted with her head held high.

"Call your mother to go, it's your mother to go! Say so much, look at what the dogs are doing now, when Yuntian was alive, he also relied on his real skills to eat! Although the sword mountain is fired, it is better than him who does not recruit five or six. ”

Thinking of the recent change in Li Gouyu's temperament, he was furious! After the Chinese New Year, I went to the town, and I didn't know how to gamble and win two oceans! Since then, he has become a gambler, and he is out of control.

Say what a small bet is pleasant, and a big gamble makes a fortune! It's not his own son, he really wants to get rid of this unfilial thing.

Li Huang is the mother of Long Li! The old lady arrived at her daughter's house when the sun was in the west, and when she walked into the courtyard gate, she saw that her daughter's house was in full swing, and several women were spreading out in the yard. (made of dried mulberries, a mat for things, called a long leaf dustpan in the local dialect)

The children in the yard are frolicking, and Ryuuji is holding a flat stick! Shouting and dancing under the jujube tree in the yard.

"Xiufen! Busy? ”

"Mother! Why are you here, come to the house and sit down and drink saliva. ”

Long Li greeted his mother into the hall and brought a stool for her to sit down! Pour a large bowl of hot boiling water.

"Mother! Warm up with some hot tea. ”

"Huh!"

Li Huang picked up the bowl and looked left and right! There have also been changes in the home, a new table and two new beds have been added, and I am still making a new bench.

Don't say it! The men in the family are on top of things, and the days are much fresher, which is all a blessing left by the daughter's man.

Looking at the house, I was envious! She was also happy when she looked at it, but when she thought of the current situation of her family, she also sighed.

"Mother! What's wrong with you? Seeing that his mother was unhappy, Long Li was also worried! I also encountered a difficulty, this food has just been taken away by dogs! Is there a lack of money at home?

Li Huang looked at the room and saw that there was no one else in the room, and tears rolled down his cloudy eyes! Long Li looked sad: "Mother! Wait, you still have a few dollars at home, if you need it urgently! Take it back when you're old. ”

"Xiufen! It's not that my mother is short of money, it's that there is no food at home. "Li Huang, as a mother, is also panicked! It took a lot of courage to open my mouth.

It's hard to say, it's just blocking your throat and eyes.
