Brother Niu Qian, you said that you didn't guarantee it, so what's going on with this handprint? Rassi asked.

Niu Qian muffled his throat, scratched his brain hard, and almost scratched his scalp, and after half a day, he let go of his hand:

"I really don't know, I haven't seen this IOU, Sanniang is in charge of all the big and small things in the family, how can I have this idea, and I also guarantee to borrow money for others, but, but this handprint!"

Obviously, Niu Qian himself was also confused, his eyes were red in a hurry, and his thick palms were constantly rubbing, not knowing where to put them.

Sanniang gritted her teeth and rushed to Mrs. Li's side, pulled the hem of her brown dark clothes, and said sharply:

"I respect you for the elder, and I took you in for no reason, what is the disadvantage? I don't have this one hundred taels, and I don't believe that Brother Qiange will make a guarantee, you can tell me quickly, what the hell is going on! ”

Mrs. Li cried with a sad face, she shook her sleeves, dusted off Sanniang's hand, shrunk her neck and stepped back, and whispered without confidence:

"I'm an orphan woman, how could Mrs. He be willing to lend me so much silver, if he hadn't signed a guarantee, where could it be done, I, I can't go up, I have to go back to your house - ouch Sanniang daughter-in-law, I know that you have hidden a lot of silver, even a hundred taels are there, first take out the envoy with me, and when my food stamps are sold, I will definitely pay you back!"

Sanniang's face turned pale, and she hated this white-eyed wolf to death in her heart, thanks to her for Mrs. Li's food and clothing, and her shelter from the wind and rain, in the end, it was such a return?

"Yes, Sanniang, my mother-in-law often praises you for being good, treating her like her own godmother, now that she has encountered a little thing, why do you keep pushing back, besides, this is written in black and white, quickly get the money, we can go back, you see my boss still has a big belly."

The Wang family fanned the flames on the side, and he took Sanniang to be honest and bulliful, and he had a high-spirited and villainous face.

Luo Shi sneered when she heard this, and choked back:

"Godmother can't kiss her mother-in-law, how can you say that you have also given tea to aunt, changed your mouth, and talked about relatives, how to pay this debt is also the reason for you to repay. I'm still the same sentence, Mrs. Li didn't run away and didn't die, what did the cow do, if she didn't go up, chop her hands and stomp her feet as you like, and then tie it back to brush the bucket for a few years to pay off the debt, and it will be over when she dies! ”

Turning his head to look at Niu Qian, his eyes rolled, Luo Xi thought of a possibility, and asked:

"Brother Niu Qian, do you have a time to press someone's handprint on weekdays?"

As soon as Luo Shi's words came out, Niu Qian looked at the sky and thought carefully, Sanniang's face was earnest, but Mrs. Li seemed to be very weak-

"Yes!"

Niu Qian slammed his fist into the palm of his hand and said firmly.

"To whom?"

"Mrs. Li - but she gave me the credit from the grocery store at the entrance of the village, and I only pressed it after I took a look."

Sanniang was so angry that tears fell, slapped his palm on the back, and said angrily:

"You second fool, you must have made her a monster at that time!"

Luo Shi immediately said, "Where is that credit paper?" Is it at the grocery store? ”

"In my place!" Sanniang raised her eyes and said: "I just settled the credit a few days ago, and the store returned the book and paper to me, I kept it in the house, I'll get it right away!" ”

Sanniang hurriedly ran into the house, and after a while, she ran out with a piece of paper.

Mrs. Li was so frightened that the six gods had no master, and at this time, the Wang family gave her a look, Mrs. Li gritted her teeth, and immediately flew towards Sanniang-

Sanniang couldn't dodge, she fell to the ground, and the whole person told her to press on the ground, the back of her head hit the ground, and she was dizzy.

"Mrs. Li! What are you doing! ”

Luo snorted sharply, and rushed up with it - Mrs. Li snatched the paper from Sanniang's hand, crumpled it into a ball, and stuffed it directly into her mouth!

Luo Shi saw that the situation was not good, and made a decision immediately.

She couldn't find anything for a while, so she had to put her fingers in her mouth and crack her teeth so hard that she couldn't be told to swallow the paperball.

After all, Mrs. Li is old and can't struggle, but she hates Luo Shi in her heart, so she bites her finger hard!

Luo snorted, almost fainting in pain, ten fingers to her heart, she wondered if her fingers were still there.

Sanniang was shocked, and hurriedly pushed Mrs. Li who was pressing on her down, followed Luo Shi to break her teeth, and snatched out the paper and fingers.

"Dong" punched, and Luo Shi unceremoniously hit the bridge of Mrs. Li's nose.

I don't know if it was the blood on her own fingers or the blood left in Mrs. Li's nasal canal, in short, it made her face bloody and terrifying.

Covering her mouth and nose, Mrs. Li sat down on the ground and cried, crying and scolding:

"The sky has no eyes, who will pity and pity my old wife, such a little prostitute has a black hand, dare to beat the old man, wow, there is a little beast who has no mother's teaching, it is really the opposite of the sky, wow, the family joins forces to bully people, closes the door to earn silver, encounters relatives in difficulty, a piece of silver refuses to come out, so that the thunder is killed wow"

Luo Shi pinched his fingers, and the blood fell to the mud one by one, and it was gone in the blink of an eye.

Sanniang hurriedly took out the handkerchief in the placket and bandaged it for Luo Shi, and after a while, the blood soaked Bai Juan and bloomed blood-colored plum blossoms.

"Sanniang, take the paper apart and I'll see it"

Ignoring Mrs. Li's scolding and crying, Sanniang hurriedly unfolded the paper ball-

Luo Shi found that this Bai Xuan was a very thin sheet, and the words on it were all hairy, as if someone had used a paper cutter to remove another layer from the middle. The cinnabar ink on the top of the cow dry is very heavy, the force penetrates the back of the paper, and the shape is the same as that on the IOU.

The truth is that it was Mrs. Li who calculated Niu Qian.

Luo Shi held the paper high so that the onlookers could see it, and she plucked her voice and said:

"Folks, uncles and aunts all take a look, the handprint on this is exactly the same as the one on the IOU, it must be Mrs. Li who thinned the credit bill of the grocery store, coaxed Niu Gan to press the handprint, I packed the ticket, at that time, under this credit bill, there must be a hidden IOU, and the mud seeped from the top to the bottom, so there was an IOU guaranteed by Niu Qian!"

Everyone made a sudden voice, accusing Mrs. Li of not being a thing, Sanniang's family treated her like this, she didn't know how to report it, and she was a kind person, and she was also rewarded for her sins when she died.

Niu Xinghua's eyes couldn't hide her resentment, she glared at the Wang family beside her, and scolded: "Useless thing"

Wang lowered his head, very unconvinced.

Retracting the look of blame, taking a deep breath, Niu Xinghua said to Luo Shi:

"I don't know about this, but this Mrs. Li has set up your family, I just want my money"

Mrs. Li couldn't drag Sanniang and Luo Shi into the water, so she panicked, and she hurriedly begged Wang:

"Eldest daughter-in-law, can you quickly help me say a good word, call for grace time, and when I sell the food stamps, will I be able to repay the money?"

The boss of the Wang family was unwilling, so he pretended not to know her, and muffled his voice and didn't say anything.

At this time, someone on the side shouted: "The old woman doesn't know yet, right? There are rumors in the city that it is said that this year's grain will not reach Tongzhou! Everyone went to redeem the food stamps, and the queue was long, and they were willing to pay it at first, but now they are not willing to do it."

Mrs. Li's face changed, obviously not knowing about it. Hearing that there were still people talking, she was even more desperate in her heart.

"Yes, my family only got half of the food stamps in exchange for me, it was a matter of the morning, and now I go to Ruifeng, I can't even redeem half of it, unless I buy it with real money, this food stamp is waste paper!"

"Nonsense! You're all talking nonsense...... So many people are speculating on food stamps, all pointing to make money, how can I capsize in the gutter? ”

Mrs. Li cried and looked at Sanniang and Luo Shi with earnest eyes.

Luo Shi mercilessly pierced her self-comfort:

"There are few people in the countryside who speculate on grain stamps, even if they lose, they can't get a few dollars, and the rich are not bad at money, so they can't hurt the bottom of the gas, unless it's speculators who want to make a windfall and go with money from India, then it's more miserable."

Mrs. Li was paralyzed on the ground, her anger dissipated without a trace, and she really looked like an old woman in the twilight:

"What to do, what to do...... What should I do? ”

She took out the stack of food stamps from her arms, tears crackled and fell, blurring the handwriting on it, she trembled her wrists, held the food stamps and handed them to Niu Xinghua:

"I only have this, can I take it and pay off the debt?"

"The old thing is hard, whoever wants your food stamps, as long as the silver, you can't pay today, just wait for the chopping hand!" Without Niu Xinghua to speak, the evil servant behind her carried the clip with the silver ingot and cut it out.

Luo Shi looked at it and saw that it was a pair of large scissors with a very short cut and a very long and thick handle, one side was fixed on a large wooden case, and the other long handle could be opened and closed. This thing is generally used in the money shop to press and cut silver ingots, I don't know when it started, there is also a gambling house to put one, out of thousands or bad accounts, there are used to see blood.

Mrs. Li was scared when she saw it, she kicked her legs, her hands kept pulling back, and her ass cut a furrow on the ground-

"Don't, please bypass me, I'll brush the bucket, pour the night pot, wash the clothes, don't chop my hands!"

Sanniang grabbed Luo Shi's hand, her face was tangled, and hesitation flashed in her eyes from time to time.

Luo Shi held her vigorously, and her eyes signaled: Do you still want to protect her? I forgot what kind of person she was, an ungrateful black-hearted ghost, and it was a fool to help her.

Mrs. Li tore her throat and cried, and was soon dragged by the evil slave to the clippers.

Her eyes were full of horror, and when she saw that Wang refused to say a word to her, she just saw that she was pulled away and chopped off, so she began to scold her head and face:

"You wicked woman, it was you who gave me the idea of speculating on grain stamps, you said that you could take your pocket back to your hometown after earning money, and you also asked me to use that method to deceive Niu Gan, with his back, I was willing to take the risk, now something has happened, you are like a nobody, you stinky woman, I will kill your little hoof!"

Mrs. Li seemed to be crazy, and for a while she broke free from the clutches of the evil slave and threw herself towards the Wang family-

grabbed Wang's hair and fell to the ground, I don't know where the strength came from, Mrs. Li pressed the strong Wang to the ground, snapped two big slaps and shook off the hatred, and then bit her ear, and didn't let go after tasting all the blood!

Wang screamed in pain, scuffled with Mrs. Li on the ground, and scolded back while beating:

"You dead old woman, your son died early, your life is my, why do you want to earn money to take your grandson back to your hometown and drag me on, I don't want to live the life of farming anymore, I am the life of the young grandmother, you, you let go! Ouch-"

Mrs. Li was dragged away by the belated evil slave, and she spat a mouthful of bloody phlegm:

"You stinky cousin with broken shoes, who is blind to make your sow break shoes, I will not let you go if I die, my wife is dead, and I will come to you to ask for your life!"

Wang shivered, covered his bleeding ears and crawled back.

Niu Xinghua held her stomach, feeling that the smell of blood was a little pungent, and she didn't bother to watch the wicked woman scuffle, covering her mouth and nose and saying to Wang on the ground:

"You, go and pinch her finger and avenge her biting you!"
