Chapter 5: Borrowing Money

This voice can be described as full of shapes and spirits, even Jiang Liang can't help but admire, the younger brother's acting skills are simply killing the actor in seconds!

The eldest aunt stared at Jiang Jinbao's appearance, suspicious, and couldn't figure out if he was really sick or pretending to be sick, and at this moment, there was a rush of footsteps in the room.

After a while, an old man with gray hair came out of the house, hurriedly pushed away the eldest aunt and walked to Jiang Jinbao's side to help him up.

"Jinbao, what's going on? Why are you uncomfortable? ”

Jiang Liang recognized this person as their grandfather, Jiang Dahai's father, Jiang Ping.

Jiang Jinbao stopped howling miserably when he saw Jiang Ping, and just stared at the old man pitifully.

"Grandpa, help! My father sold my eldest sister to the Zhao family Chongxi, and the money was lost, and the family couldn't open the pot anymore! ”

As soon as these words came out, I didn't know whether it was improvised or deliberate, so I heard Jiang Jinbao's stomach gurgling, and the atmosphere was instantly rendered in place.

"You sisters and brothers are here to ask for money?"

The eldest aunt stood aside, and as soon as she heard Jiang Jinbao's words, her fat face suddenly became gloomy, her eyebrows were upside down, and she squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth, "What does it matter to us if you can't open the pot at home?" My family doesn't have any money! ”

This voice directly shook the sparrows in the courtyard and fled.

Jiang Liang had already prepared, and when he saw this, he quickly kicked his little brother's knee, and when he heard a pop, Jiang Jinbao directly threw himself to the ground and knelt down in front of Jiang Ping.

He was also a clever man, so he kowtowed to his grandfather and roared in a louder voice.

"Grandpa, help!"

Jiang Ping couldn't bear to let his little grandson beg at the door, so he glanced at his eldest daughter-in-law viciously, and spoke rudely.

"Well, what is it like to make a fuss here early in the morning! Let me go inside! ”

The old man spoke, and everyone didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, so they followed him into the house.

"Everyone, let's cook on the fire."

Jiang Ping put on a posture of being in charge, sat down directly after entering the house, saw the restrained appearance of the sister and brother, cleared his throat, and asked, "Say it!" What's going on? ”

Jiang Liang was silent, just glanced at his younger brother.

Jiang Jinbao nodded hurriedly and directly said the words that the sister and brother had discussed in advance.

"Grandpa, you know what virtue my father has, we really can't do it! This, this first sold the eldest sister, and then went down, wouldn't it be to sell me too......"

As he spoke, Jiang Jinbao secretly pinched his thigh, and suddenly burst into tears, looking at Jiang Ping so pitiful, and seeing that the old man was also distressed.

"Tell me, how much?"

Zhang Wang saw his little grandson's thin little body, and thought of his unobtrusive son, sighed heavily, and finally relieved.

Jiang Jinbao was not ambiguous, and immediately stretched out a finger, looking at Jiang Li's eyes with smugness.

"How much? A hundred texts? ”

"Ten taels! It's just enough to retire the eldest sister's relatives! ”

"What! Why don't you grab it! ”

The eldest aunt who was hiding in the kitchen and eavesdropping suddenly rushed out with a rolling pin, and looked at Jiang Jinbao with an expression of wanting to eat people.

Jiang Jinbao was shocked, and he hurriedly hid behind Jiang Liang and couldn't say a word.

Jiang Liang blocked the little brother behind him, and finally said the first words after entering the house.

"Grandpa, granddaughter doesn't know who is in charge of this family?"

Her words instantly touched the old man's sensitive nerves, and she looked at her eldest daughter-in-law who interrupted him violently, feeling that her authority was being challenged, and she couldn't help frowning.

"Get out and cook, there's no room for you to talk here!"

was scolded by her father-in-law, the eldest aunt could only give up, and before leaving, she did not forget to glare at Jiang Liang viciously, so she was reluctant to leave.

"Grandpa, we came here this time to ask you to borrow some silver for emergencies. When you earn money, you will definitely pay it back! ”

Jiang Liang understood his grandfather's concerns, and hurriedly said: "No matter what happens in a month, I promise to repay the money!" ”

"Also? What are you going to do with a girl? The food you borrowed last year is still gone! Don't mention ten taels, even a hundred wen! ”

Without waiting for Jiang Ping to speak, a tall and thin man lifted the curtain and walked out of the back room.

"Uncle, you woke up so early."

Jiang Liang glanced at Uncle Jiang Dashan and said in a sarcastic tone.

"It's not as good as my niece, so I came to borrow money early in the morning."

Jiang Dashan snorted coldly, and said in a weird manner: "I heard that the son of the Zhao family was admitted to Xiucai at a young age, and he is famous like him, and his family is rich, is it possible that he has wronged you?" ”

"If you want me to say niece, you are in a blessing and don't know how to be blessed!"

"Nonsense! The Zhao family is not a good person! Sister, don't listen to your uncle, Zhao Xiucai is not a serious person, I heard that he has been mixing in the hook bar all day long, if he wasn't sick and dying this time, how would he think about finding someone to be happy, and you can still marry well? ”

Jiang Liang didn't expect things to be like this, and couldn't help but scold Jiang Dahai in his heart, and his eyes became more and more cold when he looked at the uncle, knowing that he was afraid that he would not be able to borrow this silver.

Jiang Jinbao still refused to give up, and begged: "Grandpa, you can't see death and not save it!" The eldest sister's marriage can't be withdrawn! It's a big deal, I'll earn the silver in the future, and I'll pay you back tenfold......"

Seeing his little brother like this, Jiang Liang couldn't help but have a sour nose and was a little moved. Being able to say such things shows that he attaches great importance to his eldest sister in his heart.

Jiang Liang held the little brother's hand and was about to take him out of here, when he heard Jiang Dashan speak again.

"It's not hard to borrow money, as long as you can guarantee that you can repay ten times as much in a month, I will lend you money. But if you can't pay back the money, and now the land you planted belongs to me, what about it? ”

Jiang Liang couldn't help but squint his eyes when he heard this, and his eyes fell on Jiang Ping, wanting to see what the old man said.

She didn't know why the uncle wanted their family's land, but most of their family was now dependent on the harvest in the field, and this was undoubtedly unacceptable.

"Good!"

Jiang Jinbao suddenly spoke, squeezed Jiang Li's hand hard, and said loudly: "Yes!" We have no opinion! ”

"Jinbao!"

Jiang Liang stared at his younger brother with wide eyes, unable to believe that these words came from his younger brother's mouth.

Jiang Jinbao heard her shout and grinned at Jiang Liang. "Sister, don't worry, I won't let you marry that kind of bad guy!"

It's her family.

Jiang Liang instantly accepted his current identity at this moment.

She squeezed her younger brother's hand and turned to look at her grandfather. "Grandpa, what do you say?"

Jiang Ping was uncomfortable with the sister and brother, and finally spoke slowly after a long time.

"What ten times not ten times, what nonsense! So I will lend you ten taels of silver, and if you cannot pay it back after a month...... Give the land to your uncle, as your uncle said. ”

"Okay, just do what Grandpa said."

Jiang Liang nodded heavily and said solemnly: "Since it is such a big event, it is better to ask the village chief to come over and testify and make a note." ”
