Chapter 167: Seeing the Truth in Adversity

After another cough, he pushed open a few windows in the room, and when he was not so uncomfortable, he asked, "Is it really the best incense powder?" ”

Li Niang's handkerchief shook in front of her.

Followed by a burst of "ah cut", sneezing all over the sky.

"You too...... Too...... Dirty, right? Such a good thing, but you can't appreciate it. ”

Li Niang said so, but she put away the handkerchief, put the basin in her hand and cleaned it, and then leaned on the "chaise longue" on the side.

"I can't hide it, I came to my sister today, because I have something to ask for."

Li Niang pursed her lips and smiled: "Please?" What do you ask of me? ”

She took a small box over, put it in front of Li Niang, and said as she opened it: "Money is tight, lack of money." I don't know if these things can get into the eyes of the ladies of the flower shop? ”

Li Niang propped herself up, and her hand flipped a few times in the box.

Pick up a string of pearl necklaces.

Rubbing the pearls with his fingertips, he raised them again, and looked carefully at the light: "Things are good things." Why, don't want it all? ”

"It's all changed."

"Then you wait." Li Niang got up and went out.

A man came in after a while, took the box out, and after a while, Li Niang returned to the house.

"One hundred and twenty times, do you want to change it?"

"Thank you, sister!"

Not much different from what she expected.

After all, it is a second-hand resale, or such a channel, and the price cannot be like in other shops, and the price of 120 yuan is moderate.

Li Niang held her cheeks with one hand and smiled: "Your shop is closed, and you plan to go back to your hometown?" ”

"Hometown?"

"Where is your hometown?"

She suddenly laughed: "I'm not going anywhere, just in Huai'an." ”

Li Niang looked at her with great interest: "Planning to make a comeback?" When does it start? ”

Before she could answer, Li Niang hurriedly asked, "Am I good to you?" ”

"Great." She gave a thumbs up.

"Then you don't want to be like those ungrateful stinky men! If you make something good in the future, you must think about me first, do you know? ”

"That's nature."

"By the way, you don't want to make some soap? It seems that Beauty Shop is also selling soap, but I said that no one is allowed to buy it there. You acquaintance, hurry up and send me a batch of goods, do you know? ”

"No problem, I'll do it myself and send it to you as soon as possible."

"Is the peach still open?"

"I'm going to shut it down."

"And what are you going to do?"

"You'll find out after a while." She stood up and said, "Thank you Liniang for your help, I have written down this kindness." It's not too early, don't bother you to make money every day! ”

"Wait a minute." Li Niang walked up to her, glanced in the direction of the door, and asked in a boo, "Is that person reliable?" ”

Li Niang refers to Zhang Wuhei.

He was also flustered by the incense powder and ran out to spread the smell.

"Of course! That's my eldest brother, his surname is Zhang. ”

"That's it." Li Niang went back to the inner room, and when she came out, she was holding an ordinary cloth bag in her hand: "Take it, here is the gold ingot." ”

The cloth bag was handed to her.

Catch.

Nearly three pounds in weight.

"Here's two hundred dollars."

"This ...... I'll write you an IOU. ”

"Why are you writing that? If you want to repay the money, you don't write an IOU, and the person will pay it back by himself, and those old people will immediately disappear without a trace after setting up a note and writing an IOU. ”

"Don't shirk it, this money, put it here and put it here, don't worry, when will you pay it back, but it's still the same sentence."

"What's the good thing, you have to think about me!"

Li Niang took the initiative to borrow her 200 yuan. Reading the Book House

I didn't say anything else, but in my heart, I was very moved - adversity saw the truth.

It's really not easy for someone to borrow money at this time.

Let Yerba Grass keep a good note of this account.

Borrowed gold ingots worth 200 quintals.

Early the next morning.

Very early on the kind.

She was woken up by Fangcao, who called Hache and said, "Someone is looking for you, saying that your surname is Cai, and you are pushing a cart of rice to ......"

When he went to the door, Sun Er was blocking behind the door: "...... No, no, no...... Where can it, casually, casually accept things. ”

The sky was not yet bright, and Cai Xuze, who was in front of the door, seemed to be covered with a layer of ash on his face.

Cai Xu beckoned to her: "Shopkeeper Liu!" ”

She walked over quickly, "Why are you here?" ”

"Send you some rice, you can take it quickly, I still have something to do."

Cai Xu urged, and she immediately asked Sun Er to carry the rice bag in.

Sun Er muttered while carrying the rice bag: "It's mixed with ...... It's iron, it's heavy, it's heavy. ”

Fangcao went to call Sun Da to help, and Cai Xu asked her to go aside.

Looking left and right, he whispered, "There are 50 yuan in the rice bag, don't cook it all and eat it." ”

"Thank you, Brother Cai." She quickly clenched her fists.

"The contemptible inner son is very strict, those are already made up by me, you don't have to dislike them. You and I know each other, and we are friends after all, and if friends are in trouble, Cai will do our best to help. ”

"Thank you Brother Cai for your help, wait a minute, I'll write an IOU, so that my sister-in-law won't be able to explain it badly, and there will always be a day when the stuffing will be exposed."

"She doesn't know about this, where can I get a money?" Cai Xu looked around again, and then took out a folded paper from his sleeve: "You take this." ”

Outside is an envelope.

Inside is a piece of paper.

Unfolded it, his eyes immediately widened: "Yay? Brother Cai, is it hidden? ”

"Whereever, all the belongings are given to you."

She didn't believe his nonsense - it was a "check" on paper, and the face value was as high as 300 yuan!

Cai Xu continued: "Linlang gold jewelry, it is also on Lihua Road, I am a very good brother, I have already said hello to him, you take this, he will give you so much money, no one will be less." ”

"Really?"

"What are you lying about? But...... You said the interest you gave, that ...... Gotta give a little. ”

"How much?"

"One year, 15 yuan."

"No problem, I'll write you an IOU."

"No more trouble." As he spoke, Cai Xu took out another envelope from his chest: "I've prepared it, you can take a look." ”

Smiled and quickly took it.

The details are written on the paper.

Approximate meaning - "She borrowed 300 yuan from Cai Xu, for a one-year period, and repaid 315 yuan with interest, and if she did not repay it in the following year, she would increase the interest of 30 yuan, that is, 315 + 30 = 345 yuan." ”

Cai Xu was already holding a pen and red ink.

Two copies, one per person.

Cai Xu carefully put it into his arms.

"No, the 50 yuan in the rice bag was not written."

Cai Xu waved his hand: "It's not in the way, you can do it just by looking at it." ”

"Then I'll borrow you, and we'll pay it back together when the time comes."

"In addition, I have already said hello to the renovation of your house, you can go to Master Li. I'm leaving soon, I'm not in Huai'an in the near future, shopkeeper Liu, you hurry up. ”

Cai Xu left in a hurry.

She quickly closed the door and went to the kitchen, opened the rice bag, good fellow - real rice on the top, real copper coins on the bottom.

50 dollars.

That's about 400 pounds.

Cai Xu is the same......
