Chapter 79: Falling into the Tiger's Mouth
After listening to Tao Sixi's explanation, Li Zheng Liu Dahai and Tao Haisheng looked at each other.
"That's it, since you girl has signed a contract with Wang Laohu in black and white, no matter whether your herb will work on Tian Qi or not, we can only bite the bullet." Li Zhengdao.
Tao Haisheng gritted his teeth and said: "Even if the four girls don't toss this out, the hundreds of acres of medicinal herbs will definitely die. ”
Li Zheng smiled bitterly and looked up at the sky.
If God really opened his eyes, he would not have been in drought for so long, so that the people of these ten miles and eight villages would fight for a mouthful of water!
After discussing with Li Zheng and Tao Haisheng, Tao Sixi turned around and walked back, and when she passed by the door of Gu's house, someone called her name.
Turning his head, he saw that it was Gu Nanxing.
"Brother Gu, what's the matter with you calling me?" Tao Sixi turned to look at him, smiled slightly, and asked.
Gu Nanxing strode in front of her, glanced around, made sure that no one was passing by, and directly grabbed her arm and dragged her to the courtyard before letting go.
"Brother Gu, do you have anything to say if you dragged me in in a panic?" Tao Sixi quietly rubbed his somewhat sore arm, and said in his heart that he was really used to doing hard work, and this hand was really strong.
Gu Nanxing didn't speak, he directly took out a fist-sized small cloth bag from his arms and stuffed it into Tao Sixi's hand.
"Take it!" He said in a deep voice.
"What?" Tao Sixi was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and tore open the mouth of the cloth bag and glanced inside.
Don't look at it, don't worry about it, and be shocked when you look at it.
The cloth bag turned out to be filled with broken silver, mixed with some copper plates, and it looked like it was about four or five taels of silver when I held it in my hand.
"Brother Gu, what are you doing for me?" Tao Sixi asked.
Gu Nanxing said: "I heard that you went to bet with Wang Laohu and signed a contract, Sixi sister, that Wang Laohu is not easy to mess with, even if there is a contract, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not cheat." ”
"Taking advantage of the fact that there are still two days left in the gambling contract, you hurry up and take this silver to hide outside, Brother Gu has no ability, he can't make money, and he can't help you, but Brother Gu can't watch you jump into the fire pit of the Wang family, you go quickly, leave Tang Village, and wait until the turmoil has passed in the future, and you will come back!"
Wang Laohu's fifth son is a well-known fool in Shili Eight Villages, who is not only stupid, but also extremely cruel and ferocious.
Just send the little body of the Sixi girl like bean sprouts to the fool, and she will be broken in less than three days, Gu Nanxing will never allow that kind of thing to happen!
Seeing Gu Nanxing's heartfelt care in his eyes, Tao Sixi was very moved.
"Brother Gu, if I'm not mistaken, this money is the daughter-in-law you have saved over the years, right?" Tao Sixi asked suddenly.
This topic jumped so fast that when Gu Nanxing reacted, his face turned red.
Tao Sixi knew that he had guessed correctly.
She stuffed the little purse back into Nanxing's hand, and said: "Brother Gu, you keep this money to marry your daughter-in-law, Wang Laohu's side, you don't have to worry about me, the contract written in black and white is clear, as long as I can fulfill my promise to save Tian Qi, he Wang Laohu will not be able to repay the debt, even if it is sent to the yamen, we will take advantage of it!" ”
Gu Nanxing looked stunned.
"You...... Are you sure you can save those herbs? He asked.
Tao Sixi smiled and nodded, "Well, I'm not stupid, I won't let myself fall into the tiger's mouth." ”
Gu Nanxing also nodded, slightly relieved.
"Sister Sixi, what can I do for you? I don't have any other skills, but I have the strength, I can run an errand or something for you! He added.
