Chapter 7: Selling Wives and Children

Seeing this, Zhang Ling kept staring at Zhang Ruoyu, waiting for her to ask for help.

Everyone blamed Liu Wu and spoke for Zhang Ruoyu, but the people in the gambling house didn't think so, and finally met a gambler who had no power or power, of course, he had to sell his wife and children if he lost.

So several thugs came over, surrounded the three of them, and began to ask Zhang Ruoyu for money.

"Hey! Boy, you dear uncle owes us a tael of silver, and if you don't pay this debt today, you will leave a finger! ”

As he spoke, he was about to reach out and grab Zhang Ruoyu.

Zhao Ling pulled her away, protected her behind her, and folded the fan, "Huh!" "A sound opens, a leisurely fan?

Zhang Ruoyu looked at this posture, a man and a woman, where are the opponents of these five bare-chested strong men?

Looking at Zhao Ling again, he didn't seem to be flustered at all.

Zhang Ruoyu whispered in his ear, "Aren't you afraid at all?" ”

"There are only five of them, and they don't have any weapons in their hands, so why are they afraid?"

"It's worthy of being a young and promising person, who became a county magistrate at a young age, but the last time you were in the mountains, you forgot that you were chased by mountain bandits? Even the discs were lost. Zhang Ruoyu whispered.

She still has a lot of money, white money, and she is about to give it to someone else before she gets hot, and she takes out a money bag from her chest.

"Uncle, I only have two taels left to spend here, you can take them all!"

Zhang Ruoyu threw the silver out, and Liu Wu immediately smiled when he got it, "It is worthy of being my good nephew." ”

With the silver in his hand, Zhang Wu immediately became angry and threw one or two to them, "Take it!" ”

Zhang Ruoyu was ready to leave, but the five thugs didn't mean to let the two of them go.

"Two taels of silver, after paying off the debt, there is still one or two left, at most three games, this is your dear uncle, more respectful than your father, take all the money on your body!"

"Hurry!"

One of the thugs stretched out his hand, looking like he was about to step forward.

Zhao Ling gently patted the back of his hand with a two-fold fan, and he immediately held the beaten hand in pain, so painful that he called his mother.

"Ahh

"It hurts Grandma to death."

"You kid, it's ......"

The thug who was beaten was pulled by someone, "Forget it, he is not our creditor, he can't do it, besides, look at the clothes, he is not an ordinary person, so don't mess with it." ”

The five thugs turned around and walked into the gambling room.

Zhang Wu followed them and went in again, "Who do you look down on?" Today, I'm going to rely on these two pieces of silver to turn the tables, so that you can see how powerful I am. ”

On the way back, Zhang Ruoyu saw that there was no one around, so he took out the money bag in the cuff, "I know that this egg can't be put in a basket, otherwise today, it will all be planted in the hands of my dear uncle." ”

"By the way, Ah Ling, you used to know martial arts, you can't see it, you are thin and weak, and there are two strokes."

"No, are you dressed to look thin and undressed with flesh? I'll have to see it tonight. Zhang Ruoyu jokingly said, completely forgetting that the era she is living in now is patriarchal and extremely restrictive to women.

When Zhao Ling heard her words, he immediately blushed his ears and shouted angrily, "What kind of system!" ”

Then he walked forward quickly, ignoring Zhang Ruoyu.

"Hey! Ah Ling, you know the big man, why is his face so thin, I'm just saying, do you really plan to see it. ”

……

In the evening, the sun had just set.

Zhang Wu returned home with an injury, pushed the door into the house, it was pitch black, and immediately shouted, "Mother, light the lamp!" ”

"Lighting the lamp? What lights? It's not completely dark yet, and there's still light up, save some oil, which has to be bought with money. His wife, Zhang Ling returned.

"Save money? How many dollars can be left in saving? Liu Wu lost it all, and he was in a very bad mood.

Zhang Wu found the flint and steel, lit the oil lamp, and the whole room lit up instantly.

Zhang Ling immediately came over, pulled off the hairpin on her head, and lowered the wick, making the light much dimmer.

"What a sin, it's so bright, it's about to catch up with the big sun leak during the day."

Daytime?

These two words reminded Zhang Wu that what happened during the day today, there were two people on the street who booked wine with Zhang Ruoyu, and Zhang Ruoyu, that kid, must still have money.

So he had an idea, stretched out his hand, and called Zhang Ling over, "Mother, I met Zhang Ruoyu's kid on the street today, she was carrying things in a big bag and making a lot of money selling wine." ”

Zhang Ling listened to Zhang Wu's words, half-believed, and came to the main hall, just in time to meet Mrs. Zhang who was exaggerating.

"Good treasure is out of luck, why is there green smoke on the ancestral grave of the old Zhang family, now you can make a lot of money, grandma will wait for you to be filial to me in the future, and follow you to enjoy Qingfu."

"Grandma, look at this navy blue cloth, make you a big coat, you will be the richest old lady in Shangyang Village in the future, and I also bought you a big handkerchief today."

"Here's sugar, you eat one." , Zhang Ruoyujiang bought the things himself, opened them one by one, and put them in front of Mrs. Zhang.

Liu Xiu also laughed happily on the side.

Zhang Ling looked at the handkerchief, it was not ordinary cotton and linen, it was silk!

A silk handkerchief, a full 50 Wen, it seems that Liu Wu is right, today Zhang Ruoyu this kid has made a fortune, let me borrow money later.
