Chapter XXIII: Disposition
Inside, Wentai happened to come out of the kitchen with hot porridge, and when he heard the sound, his feet, which were originally turned to the room, turned in a different direction.
The courtyard door creaked open from the inside, and when he saw a Lang Jun in brocade clothes standing outside, Wen Tai was slightly stunned and asked, "What is the matter with this Lang Jun?" “
Lu Yuancheng glanced behind him and said eagerly: "Wen Shu, is Wen Xiao Lady here?" “
Hearing him call his daughter, Wentai frowned slightly, and asked instead of answering: "What is Lang Jun looking for a little girl?" ”
Inside the house, Wen Shu, who was thinking about that strange thing, heard the sound and froze violently.
The voice.......
My God, how did he come!
Wen Shu was so shocked that his face was pale, and he hurriedly put on the coat at the bedside, while listening carefully to the movement outside with his ears firm, and at the same time secretly praying in his heart, don't come to collect debts!
Although they have made an IOU between them and stated the repayment period, they have not made it clear how to repay it, whether it will be monthly or annual, so she is very afraid that people from outside are coming to collect debts.
Lu Yuancheng retracted his gaze and arched his hand: "I heard that Little Lady Wen is terminally ill, I know a doctor with superb medical skills, and he may be able to help." ”
"How does this Lang Jun recognize the little girl? How did you find out that the little girl was sick? Wen Tai frowned slightly, for fear that Wen Shu was young and ignorant and would provoke some swingers outside.
Wen Shu, who quietly slipped to the door with his feet, heard this, and his heart was violently raised, for fear that Lu Yuancheng would leak the debt, so he jumped out first before he could speak.
"Oh, it's Lord Lu, why did you come to our poor place today?"
As she spoke, she glanced at Lu Yuancheng urgently, with some pleading on her face, and the meaning was obvious.....
Lu Yuancheng didn't pay attention to her at all, but when he saw her like a dragon and a tiger, he knew that it should be fine, snorted coldly, turned around and left.
As soon as Wen Shu breathed a sigh of relief, he saw her father turn his head and stared at her with a pair of eyes, "Who is that person just now, you call him Lord, when did you meet?" ”
Wen Shu immediately paused, then looked at the porridge in his hand, and said pitifully: "Dad, I'm so hungry, let's talk while drinking porridge." ”
After half a cup of tea, Wen Shu wiped his mouth with a handkerchief.
Wentai took the empty bowl in her hand, "In this way, this Lord Lu is a grateful person, you just helped him with such a small thing, but he can still remember it all the time, and he came to see you." ”
"yes, it's not a gratitude." Wen Shu's words almost popped out from between his teeth.
Knowing her kindness and repaying her made her saddled with a huge debt of fifty times!
Just the thought of that fifty-piece IOU made her whole heart throb.
Looking back now, she shouldn't have written the IOU so happily that day, how could she have to grind to make the arrears less, how could he say how much is much.
Hey, what a mistake!
"Although you are awake now, Dad is still a little worried, so you fall asleep first, and Dad will ask a doctor to call the pulse."
Wen Shu hurriedly stopped when he heard this: "No need, Dad, I'm all right now, and I still have to spend that money." As she spoke, she thought of what her father said about inviting doctors from all over the city last night, and couldn't help but pause: "It didn't cost me much money to hire a doctor last night." “
Wentai looked at her and said, "The money is gone, it's good that you can wake up safely, by the way, what happened last night, how did you faint in a good manner, and this foot ........"
Wentai couldn't figure out how he slept in the middle of the night, and he was injured.
Speaking of this, Wen Shu remembered that thrilling moment and told the truth as it was.
“..... There were stones all over the place, and I was so desperate to run for my life that I didn't have time to pull my heels, because my shoes fell off in the middle of the way, and my feet were worn like this. ”
Wen Tai frowned tightly when he heard this, "What you said is true, is there really such a scary monster in that box?" ”
"Dad, my foot injuries are all here, you still don't want to believe it." Wen Shu was a little annoyed.
"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that this fact is a little weird."
"It's a bit bizarre." Wen Shu nodded: "If I hadn't experienced it myself, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to believe it." ”
After that, she suddenly remembered the box and couldn't help but look at the ground, but there was no iron box on the ground at this time.
"Daddy, where's the box?" She asked.
Wen Tai said: "I received the box in the cabinet, now that I heard what you said, I feel that this box is probably not a good thing, and this time you are sick, several doctors have said that you have not suffered any serious injuries, but you can't wake up, now I think about it, I'm afraid it has something to do with this, maybe there is some evil here, I think it's better to lose it for the sake of safety." ”
Wen Shu strongly agreed with his idea, but ...........
"Lost, it's really going to be lost, but this box is weird, if you throw it away at will, and then let someone who doesn't know pick it up, and get a glimpse of what is going on here, wouldn't it be another disaster."
Wentai nodded: "Then what do you say?" “
Wen Shu pondered for a moment and said: "That's it, don't you say that fire can defeat evil, let's throw this box into the stove and burn it for seven hundred and forty-nine days, and then take it out and throw it away." ”
Wentai thought about it and thought it was very feasible, so he immediately took the box and went to the kitchen.
At this time, the wind and snow outside the house gradually stopped, and the gloomy sky even revealed a glimmer of light.
Wen Shu drank the medicine to dispel wind and cold, and fell asleep groggyly......
There were no strange tones and boundless darkness in her dream this time, and she was breathing a sigh of relief, thinking that that method was working, but Lu Yuancheng's face suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Pay back!" The other party had a cold face and stared at her coldly.
Wen Shu in the dream was holding his breath, but this time he hit the muzzle of the gun, and immediately swung his fist over.
Wentai, who passed by the window, saw the girl who was sleeping restlessly and punching and kicking her legs, so she shook her head helplessly and went in to fold the quilt for her again.
Three days later, the snow began to clear.
Wen Shu's foot injury is almost healed after three days of recuperation, the wound has scabbed, and it doesn't hurt much when he walks normally.
The first thing she thought of when she could move was to make money.
When she couldn't get out of bed these days, she kept thinking about how to make money quickly, but unfortunately after thinking about it, there was really no other way than to make food.
And when chatting with her father yesterday, I accidentally learned that in order to hire a doctor for her that night, his father spent the only remaining five yuan in the family, which also included the cost of repairing the shop in front.
After a month of repairs, the front shop is basically completed, and the large frame such as the foundation and the four walls have been completed, but the roof and doors and windows have not been done.
If you invite three or five carpenters to do it together, it will only take two or three days of work, but now that all the money is spent on her, there is no money for this invitation, and her father has to do it slowly by himself, but in this way, it will be delayed for half a month.
Half a month's effort, it is enough for her father to make two pairs of longevity materials, if it is sold immediately, it is three times money, and now two times off, eight times the money is gone.
