Chapter 8. Debt repayment Aunt Jin
"Daddy, so much money, we've reached it!" Looking at the thirty taels of silver, Liu Wenyang looked at him, he has been in Daming for so long, he knows the value of these money, you know, the monthly salary of the seven-grade officials of the Ming Dynasty is only 30,000 Wen, which is equivalent to only three taels of silver. Now that I have thirty taels all of a sudden, how can I not be happy?!
"But it's a little too much...... I just gave 30 taels to others, but I received 30 taels from them, which is too ...... Alas! Daddy sighed, and he didn't mean to go.
"It's voluntary. Besides, so many people are watching, the more we collect, the more face we will give to others, otherwise, who will come all the way to repay the favor! Liu Wenyang felt that it was necessary to enlighten Dad, this person can't be too kind.
"That's exactly what you say...... Three years have passed since this incident, and if those thirty wen are used for loans, it will be a lot of money! "
Liu Wenyang: "......"
It's time to re-evaluate Daddy's kindness.
"Ah Yang, no matter what, this money and food can be regarded as solving our urgent need, you convert these things, take them to return relatives and friends first, and then return the rest to Aunt Jin, see if you can get the deed back." Lyuda said.
"No, isn't that enough money enough to pay off the debt? How much do we owe people? Liu Wenyang wondered.
"Roughly calculated, about fifty taels!"
Before the old man could finish speaking, someone almost fell to the ground, "No, so much!" "
The original rich man immediately became a loser!
"Alas, there's no way, when you were sick, you almost relied on ginseng to hang yourself, how could those medicinal herbs be cheap?!"
Liu Wenyang understands that he can be described as a loser, but he is a loser in illness.
In order not to make his father sad to recall the past, Liu Wenyang said again: "Since it is to repay debts, why don't you go to Aunt Jin's house?" "
"I'm not...... That Aunt Jin is not good at talking, I'm so big again, let's go, you're just sick, I don't think that Aunt Jin will be difficult for you! Lyuda said dodgingly.
Seeing that his father was like this, Liu Wenyang couldn't say anything more.
In fact, the reason why Liu Da didn't want to see Aunt Jin was not only afraid of the other party's sharp teeth, but also afraid of contaminating her bad luck.
This Aunt Jin is a famous widow ~ woman in Peach Blossom Town, her surname is Jin, called Bao'er, and she is a famous handsome person within a radius of dozens of miles, but compared with her appearance, Jin Bao'er is more famous for the reputation of "Kefu". She was originally from Laoxi Street, Surabaya Town, and at the age of fourteen, she ordered her first family affair, but before she could pass the door, the man fell ill and died.
As a result, some people say that she is hard by nature and easy to get away. The family was worried that the matter would spread too much, and it was not taboo that she found a home in the town when she was still in filial piety. The man was engaged in the silk trade, and ran around all year round, and after he was engaged, he went north to buy and sell silk, but he didn't want to encounter the wind and waves when he crossed the river halfway, and was knocked over in the water and became a frog with a belly.
This time it's terrible, Jin Bao'er is completely "famous" in Surabaya Town, and those men don't dare to marry her even if they beat a bachelor. Helpless, Jin Baoer's parents had to find one for her here in Peach Blossom Town, which was a landlord surnamed Zhao in Peach Blossom Town, Lao Cai, who only had one son under his knees, and his wife died in his early years, and he planned to marry a little wife to warm the bed when he was older. As soon as the two met, the old rich man was immediately fascinated by Jin Bao'er's beauty, and couldn't wait to get the bride price and get married.
On the night of the candles in the cave room, the old rich man drank a few bowls of the Ten Perfection Tonic Tiger Whip Soup, and waited to uncover the red hijab and enter the cave room, but he did not expect that the medicine was too strong, his nostrils were bleeding, and he died.
Since then, Jin Baoer has become Aunt Jin, directly inherited all the family business of the landlord's old wealth, and has run a good business, especially in the purchase and sale of fields, there is no entry and exit, and the industry is getting bigger and bigger.
It's just that she corresponds to her industry, that is, she has a hard life, especially if she can't see a man, and it is easy to restrain the other party.
Liu Da himself is a fortune teller, and he believes in this, so he doesn't dare to see Aunt Jin, in contrast, his son Liu Wenyang has a peculiar face, and after experiencing life and death, he has the intention of being invincible to all kinds of poisons, so let him estimate that it is okay, even if there is something, he will fight poison with poison.
……
Except for some of the food and clothing sent, all the rest was taken to the pawnshop for conversion, and the silver was two taels and seven cents.
In addition to repaying relatives and neighbors, there are still ten taels of silver left, but what is owed to Aunt Jin is a large amount, a full thirty taels of silver!
As for the date of repayment, it is the third day of the lunar month, and today is the eighth day of the lunar month, in fact, five days have passed.
In the evening of the same day, Liu Wenyang took the ten taels of silver tickets and went to Aunt Jin's house in the east of the town.
It was dark, the road was slippery, and I almost fell down several times.
A few wild dogs on the side of the road barked, so much so that Liu Wenyang, who was naturally afraid of dogs, was a little frightened.
finally walked to the east of the town, and according to the memory in his mind, Liu Wenyang found the door of Aunt Jin's house.
Come to the door, look up, this house can be a hundred times stronger than their adobe house, two stone lions squatting on both sides, wide Zhu door, beast buckle, above the gate hangs a plaque with sandalwood carved edge, lacquered stone blue background, mud gold Yang inscription, Phnom Penh auspicious clouds, although it is dark night, but still bright and dazzling, written exactly - "Zhao Mansion".
It can be seen from the face of this mansion that this Zhao family is a big family and very wealthy.
Bang Bang Bang!
Liu Wenyang lightly buckled the copper ring and knocked on the door of Aunt Jin's house.
The door opened, and an old woman came out, looking Liu Wenyang up and down a few times, "Paying off the debt?" "
Hey, does this old mother also know fortune telling, and she knows that she is here to pay off the debt?
Liu Wenyang was surprised, nodded and said, "Yes, I hope to report it." "
The old mother was a little impatient and said: "You people are really, what's so embarrassing about paying off the debts in Layue, all of them come over in the middle of the night, do you want anyone to rest?!" "
Liu Wenyang didn't think that the old mother had such a big temper, it was estimated that menopause had arrived, so he secretly forgave her rudeness and rudeness, and walked into the yard with her, but saw a man just coming out of the house.
Liu Wenyang saw it clearly, and his impression should be that he should be a private school in the town, who is usually high and tight, and he also wants to save face, but he didn't expect that he also owed Aunt Jin an account.
Anyway, the debt is a brother, Liu Wenyang still greeted the other party very politely, "Hello Mr. Sun!" "
Seeing that it was him, Sun privately covered his face with his sleeves: "I'm ashamed!" Ashamed! "Leave in a hurry.
Liu Wenyang really didn't understand what there was to be "ashamed" of coming over to pay back the money.
At this time, someone in the room asked, "Mother Wu, is there anyone else?" "
"There is another one, it is the descendant of the Liu family!"
"Let him in!"
Liu Wenyang picked up the curtain and walked in, and suddenly a wave of heating hit his face, like a spring breeze, dazzling his eyes. There are several large filigree braziers in the room, and the fiery red charcoal fire emits an attractive red light, which makes people's faces flushed.
Behind a carved red sandalwood case, a woman with a high bun is sitting on the plate, and she can hear the sound of the abacus beads crackling and jumping, occasionally mixed with coughing, in addition, the nose can vaguely smell a faint smell of medicine.
Liu Wenyang's eyes couldn't adapt to the brightness in the room for a while, and he couldn't see what the woman looked like, so he had to clench his fists and sing: "Aunt Jin is good!" "
The sound of the abacus did not stop, the woman just casually glanced up at Liu Wenyang, and then said: "I heard that you have come back to life after a serious illness, it seems to be true!" "
"Thanks to you, I've only been in bed for a few days, and I'm still alive."
"Thanks to me? I don't have that much power, and I haven't done much! Aunt Jin still didn't raise her head, pulling the abacus.
Liu Wenyang smiled and said, "How can I say that I haven't done anything, in the days when I was seriously ill, my aunt never asked for a debt, this is the greatest help!" "
The sound of the abacus stopped abruptly.
That Aunt Jin raised her head and really glanced at Liu Wenyang, she hadn't seen her for more than ten days, how could this Liu Wenyang in front of her seem to have changed as a person, from the courtesy just now, to the tone and rhetoric when speaking, and then to the calm and confident bearing on her body, in short, this Liu Wenyang in front of her doesn't look like the nerd who only knows what he used to be.
