Chapter 138: The Pillar's Past

"I'll kill you brute! I'll beat you to death! ”

Cao picked up the broom erected on the wall and chased the pillar, the pillar was still dodging, but suddenly he stopped hiding, poofed, knelt in front of Cao, and said, "Auntie, you can marry Xiaoli to me!" I will definitely try to make Xiaoli live a good life! ”

"Whew! You are a gambler who doesn't know how to learn! I still want to marry my Xiaoli! Get out of here! Cao pointed to the pillar with a dark face and scolded.

"Uncle, aunt, I know I used to be muddy, but I've changed, I really changed!"

"Changed? You are in the casino in the county every day, fighting with people and making trouble, helping people watch the scene, what you do is not a good thing? Who knows if you'll gamble again one day! I will never marry my Xiaoli to someone like you! After Cao finished speaking, he dragged the crying red-eyed girl standing next to him into the room.

That girl is none other than Zhou Lili!

"Mother......" Zhou Lili wanted to defend the pillar, but the Cao family didn't give her a chance to speak at all, put down the broom in her hand, and dragged Zhou Lili in.

"Auntie, as long as you are willing to marry Xiaoli to me, I am willing to do whatever you want me to do! I'm no longer doing the work of collecting debts and watching the field, I ...... I'll find something else to do, and I won't let Xiaoli down! ”

"In order to repay your debts, your family sold only a few points of the family's land, what do you use to support my Xiaoli?"

Recalling the past, the pillar also regretted not being at the beginning!

But I've really changed!

"Mother, you just promise Brother Zhuzi! I believe Brother Zhuzi, he must have changed, he really changed! Xiaoli couldn't cry! Kneel side by side with the pillar and cry and plead.

His father Zhou Laoshi and his mother Cao Shi were even more trembling with anger.

Cao pointed at Zhou Lili and said with hatred: "You dead girl!" Do you still want to be shameless? Still shameless? ”

After that, he raised his slap and was about to slap it.

The pillar dodged to protect it behind him.

"Auntie, if you want to beat me, hit me!"

"Of course I'm going to hit you! You are a rotten gambler, you want to harm my Xiaoli, I will beat you to death! Cao picked up the broom again and was about to greet him.

"Stop!" Liu Yifan stood up and shouted.

Everyone's eyes fell on Liu Yifan and Luo Ying.

Liu Yifan and Luo Ying had already come, and after entering the village, they saw that there were many people here, and they wanted to inquire about the residence of the people who made tofu, but they never wanted to see such a play, starting from kneeling down the pillar, they arrived, and they also roughly understood the ins and outs of the matter from the mouths of onlookers.

This pillar, whose full name is Zhou Dazhu, was addicted to gambling a few years ago, and his family was defeated by him, and later owed a huge amount of gambling debts, but there was really nothing else at home to sell to him to pay off the debt, so the people in the casino wanted to arrest his sister and sell the brothel to go, when his eldest sister would rather die than obey, and suddenly hit the pillar, and the bloody face at that time was particularly scary!

This girl so, let the pillar wake up, when he himself cut off a finger, only to ask the creditor to release his sister, at that time to collect the debt is He Dawu, He Dawu admired his courage, let him work to pay off the debt, the pillar in order to repay the money, he helped He Dawu to do things, He Dawu is righteous, after the debt is paid off, the pillar has been with him, but in the casino to watch the field and ask for debts, in the eyes of honest farmers, he is not a good person, and he stays in the casino every day, Everyone thinks that he is still a bad gambler, so his reputation is extremely bad, and even if he comes home, he is not welcomed.

"Who are you?" Cao asked.

"Brother Zhuzi, this is the little girl you often mention! What a Peugeot! Luo Ying greeted with a smile, and then said, "Auntie, we are from Choushuwan, some time ago, Brother Zhuzi acted bravely and saved my brother, and today we are here to thank him!" ”

"At that time, those traffickers arrested a lot of children, but fortunately, Brother Zhu stepped forward, otherwise my brother and those children would not have come back!" Liu Yifan said.

Luo Ying continued: "At the beginning, the county magistrate and those of the yamen all praised Brother Zhuzi! ”

As soon as this news came out, it quickly exploded!

The villagers talked a lot, and the image of this pillar suddenly became taller! The county order praises a bad gambler? Many older villagers have never even been to the county seat, and the biggest official they have ever seen is the village chief.

"Seriously?" Cao asked incredulously, "Aren't you two the liars he hired?" ”

Cao didn't believe that a bad gambler would get better.

"Auntie, what are we lying to you for? The two of us are from Choushuwan, my name is Liu Yifan, this is the lady I am about to pass through, my name is Luo Ying, you go to Choushuwan to inquire, you will know. Liu Yifan said.

"Brother Zhuzi, you are really, why don't you tell the eldest lady that you are no longer helping Uncle He now? Didn't you promise to help us sell our clothes? Luo Ying reproached.

The pillar is confused!

However, he soon reacted, this is a small couple helping himself!

Liu Yifan said to Cao's family: "Auntie, it's like this, we do a small business by ourselves, there are not enough people, Brother Zhuzi has promised to come to help us, don't worry, Brother Zhuzi may have made a mistake for you in the past, but now he is really dedicated to goodness, hard work and progress." ”

Luo Ying saw that Cao's hesitation, and said: "Brother Zhuzi is really not bad, knowing that we need a lot of dried tofu, he said that someone in their village sells tofu, so he introduced us to buy tofu here. ”

"Do you really need a lot of dried tofu?" At this time, a middle-aged man came out, his age was visually measured, about thirty-five or sixteen.

"Yes! If it weren't for Brother Zhuzi's introduction, how would we have come so far? Luo Ying said.

"My family makes tofu." The man's face was delighted, "Girl, how much do you need?" ”

Luo Ying looked at the pair of infatuated men and women who were still kneeling on the ground, and said, "Uncle, otherwise, we'll talk about it later." ”

"Hey, okay, good." The man replied with a smile.

At this time, a certain woman looked suddenly enlightened and said, "I remember, are you two the little couple who sold lo-mei in the county seat before?" ”

"Auntie, it's us."

"You said you were going to buy a lot of dried tofu, and I remembered that your braised tofu is really delicious! I've bought it twice! The woman praised, "Brother Laifu, now, you are going to send it, their little couple's lo-mei business is very hot!" It's a good dozens of pounds a day, it's not a problem! ”

When Zhou Laifu heard this, he was even happier!

After the woman had finished speaking, everyone believed their words.

"Auntie, the sage also said, 'The prodigal son will not change his money'! If Brother Zhuzi really gets better, why don't we give him a chance? Luo Ying explained, "I see that Sister Xiaoli is not too young, it is better to give Brother Zhuzi a period of time, you will investigate again, if you are qualified, you will agree to this marriage, so that they will have lovers and eventually become dependents, if he does not change his life, I will help you chop off his hands, okay?" ”

"Auntie, today I swear in front of all the uncles in the village, if I gamble again in the future, if I fail Xiaoli, I will die without a place to be buried!" The pillar immediately took the opportunity to swear a poisonous oath!

The ancients especially believed in this!

The elders in the village, seeing him swearing like this, all persuaded the Cao family to give him a chance, when he was young, who didn't make mistakes! There is an old boy who has read a book and said, "Knowing mistakes can be corrected, and good is great."

Some people feel that Zhou Dazhu's oath is not credible, but they just say it in their hearts, not in person.

Zhou Lili was already moved!

At this time, she kowtowed to her father and mother, and said with teary eyes: "Father, give us a chance!" I believe that Brother Zhu will definitely get better! ”

At this time, Cao and Zhou were honestly shaken, thinking that their daughter would soon be eighteen, and today the two of them came out like this today, how ugly it may be to spread out, plus Lili's age, it is not easy to find a good mother-in-law!

"Alas......" Cao sighed and said, "Then it's limited to one year! If you really improve and work diligently, and buy back all the fields sold by your family within a year, I will marry Xiaoli Xu to you, otherwise ......"

Zhu Zi and Zhou Lili thanked happily again and again.

The Zhuzi family sold three acres of land and two acres of sandy land, which was worth twenty taels of silver, and it was not easy to make so much money, but the pillar swore in his heart that he would sell coolies outside every day, and he would earn it back without eating or drinking!

In the crowd, a young girl saw the situation and immediately rushed home to share the news with her parents......

"Get up, all of you!" Cao said.

Zhu Zi and Zhou Lili got up at this time.

The big drama ended, the onlookers gradually dispersed, and Zhou Laifu was still pacing around, waiting anxiously.

"Uncle Fu, otherwise, you and Brother Yifan will go to my house to talk!" Pillar Road.

"Okay, let's go and find a door." Liu Yifan said.

Then after saying goodbye to Zhou Laoshi's family together, they went to Zhuzi's house.

Looking at the back of the pillar, Zhou Laoshi sighed and said, "I hope this kid will really change!" ”

……

When I came to Zhuzi's house, it is really not an exaggeration to describe it as a house with four walls.

Because the family is too disappointed in the pillar, the pillar comes back every New Year, and it is not good, my sister's hatred of herself, and the disappointed eyes of my parents, the pillar feels uncomfortable!

But now, when he entered the door, his parents' eyes changed, and he saw the renewed hope in their eyes......

"Uncle Zhou, Aunt Zhou, we are here to thank Brother Zhu Zi for helping us save my brother in the first place, this is a little bit of heart." After Liu Yifan finished speaking, he handed over two packets of lo-mei, and stuffed a purse into the two old men, and there was not much money in the purse, just two taels of broken silver.

If it were someone else, Liu Yifan and Luo Ying would not be nosy, but this pillar saved the stone, and they were injured at the beginning, so they have to remember this feeling. And the pillar is in the casino, and he really doesn't gamble anymore, a gambler is now in the casino and doesn't gamble, it can be seen that he is really determined!

"Thank you...... Thank you, thank you. The two old men looked at Liu Yifan and Luo Ying while receiving things.

"Brother, your pillar is righteous! I went out and met a nobleman, and I didn't forget to introduce me to business! Zhou Laifu also began to help talk about the pillar's good words.

Zhuzi felt a little ashamed, after all, he didn't introduce this matter himself, so he sat aside and didn't speak.

Although Zhou's father and Zhou's mother already knew about this matter from the news they brought back from their youngest daughter just now, when this son came out of Zhou Laifu's mouth, they were still very relieved in their hearts, maybe their son had really changed......
