Chapter 30: Want This, Owe Us
The people nearby heard Mrs. Zhou's scream, but they were afraid of the crazy Gui Yi, so they just stood at the door of their yard, listening to the excitement here and chatting with each other.
There was no one at the door, and Lingyin's heart was settled.
However, this week's mother-in-law's scream was really a little harsh, and Lingyin sighed helplessly.
She took out a silver ingot from her pocket, and then spread her hand in front of Mrs. Zhou's eyes.
"Don't you just want this, you just say it, why bother, you see, your voice is hoarse."
Under the sun, the silver ingots of five taels in Lingyin's palm shone with a silvery-white light.
Mrs. Zhou's eyes were fixed on the silver ingot, and the crying in her mouth stopped abruptly.
Suddenly, her hand quickly reached out to Lingyin's palm, "I, where do I want it, but if you give it to me, then of course I want it." ”
Lingyin's hand was deftly retracted, and the corners of his mouth slanted slightly, "Tell me, are these enough to withstand your son's life?" ”
didn't grab the silver ingot, and Mrs. Zhou's eyes flashed with the loss that the purpose had not been achieved.
However, her eyes rolled quickly.
"It's not enough, where is this enough, my son's life is worth fifty taels, and my daughter-in-law, my daughter-in-law ran away after my son died, and I have to pay for this, a total of one hundred taels, not one point less."
"Grandma Zhou, my mother and I have been providing food and clothing for your family for the past few years, and I also saved Ah Niu the day before yesterday, so it should add up to Uncle Bolt's life!"
Mrs. Zhou's noise woke up Gui Zi'an in the hut, and when he heard Mrs. Zhou being so unreasonable, he could still bear it.
After trying to sit up, he could only close his eyes painfully after looking at his injured leg, and had to give up the urge to rush out to judge with Mrs. Zhou.
"If you are still not satisfied, then you will cry to death in my yard, anyway, our family has long been out of life, and I don't owe you much for this life."
"Bah, you want to be beautiful, your father killed the plug, I want you to support our family for him, give money and food, that you owe us."
Although Mrs. Zhou had some pestle tones, she was not afraid of Gui Zi'an, so her loud voice came out again.
Lingyin's heart moved slightly, and the right hand holding the silver ingots was retracted, and the corners of her mouth looked at Mrs. Zhou with a meaningful smile.
"You're right, since we can't give you my father's life, we should give money.
However, this one hundred taels is too much!
Besides, shouldn't we also convert the money that my mother and son An paid you in, so that we should give you a little less today, right? ”
Seeing that Lingyin put away the silver, the meaning of the smiling eyes was unclear, and Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but be a little anxious.
"I don't care how much you lost before, as long as you give me a hundred taels of silver today, our two families will be cleared."
"Hehe, when we sold the house and gave you the silver, you also said such things, but when did you talk about it?"
Gui Zi'an's sneering tone seemed to be full of anger and helplessness.
Mrs. Zhou said this number so surely, it should be expected that they would not be able to come up with it at all.
"One hundred taels of silver, even if we sell our whole family, we can't take it out today."
Lingyin observed Mrs. Zhou's expression as she spoke.
The strange thing is that Mrs. Zhou's eyes did not show the disappointment she should have, but showed a hint of joy.
It's kind of interesting.
Lingyin was quick-witted and changed her words, "However, if you can give us a few days of grace, maybe we can get the money together." ”
"No, it has to be today."
Mrs. Zhou's tone paused, and she hesitated for a moment.
"If you can't get the money today, you can also pay the account with other valuable things."
"No, how can there be any valuables in our family, if there were, we would have exchanged them for money a long time ago, and my mother's illness would be getting worse and worse, and we wouldn't be hungry and clothed."
Gui Zi'an's indignant voice came again, even a little hysterical.
Valuables? Lingyin's heart couldn't help but move, could it be related to the Zhao family?
"Then tell me what kind of valuable things our family will have that are worth a hundred taels of silver."
"yes, it's a pretty one-"
"Grandma, let's go home."
Ah Niu, who had been standing there and seemed to be at a loss, heard that Mrs. Zhou was about to rush out, so she hurriedly rushed up and grabbed Mrs. Zhou, interrupting her.
