Chapter 2 Door-to-door debt collection
The Lu family took Lu Cailian behind them, and everyone focused their eyes on the gate of the fence.
I saw a large group of people coming to the door, and the noisy footsteps creaked the snow on the ground, and then I saw the group of people coming to the door noisily, kicking open the fence gate violently, and shouting when they entered the door: "Is there any breath in the Lu family!" Get the hell out of here! ”
When Lu Liangsheng saw this momentum, he was immediately frightened and stood in place trembling, he was a timid and fearful man, and the Lu family was in charge of all major and minor affairs in the family.
He voted Tian Cuiyun with his eyes, Tian Cuiyun glanced at him fiercely with his eyes, and muttered in his mouth: "What a useless man, at the critical moment, he can't point to you at any time, and he even makes my mother-in-law come out every time." ”
Scolding is scolding, but when people come to the door, someone still has to come forward.
Lu Cailian timidly ran behind Lu Liangsheng at this time, Tian Cuiyun loves this daughter in every way, because this daughter is in love with her, competitive and good-looking, among these children, she likes to spoil her the most, and Lu Cailian's mouth is good, and she will make Lu happy. The Lu family prefers to be with her, hoping that she will marry a rich family and follow her in the future.
Seeing the violent, he hurriedly instructed: "Pick lotus!" Hurry up and hide, there is a mother in everything! ”
Then he changed his face and moved his gaze to Lu Xiaosi's body, and said fiercely: "Little hooves!" What is the excitement of standing silly and watching? Why don't you hurry up and see what's going on? ”
Lu Caiqing thought that good things would not be her turn, and bad things would be her turn, but she still moved her eyes to the group of people at the door.
I saw that the leader was an elderly man, of medium stature, with dense eyebrows slightly raised upward, and a pair of eyes like torches under the long, slightly curled eyelashes.
Seeing that this dress is a bit like the housekeeper of a large family or something, followed by some housekeepers, she looked back, and there seemed to be something still carrying in the crowd behind her.
Steward Li watched the mother-in-law send a shriveled and thin child out to talk, and immediately got angry, stepped forward and pulled Lu Caiqing aside, pointed at Tian Cuiyun and said, "Lu's! Look at the good things you do, don't want a child who is angry all day to carry the bag for you. There is a kind of you stand up for me, and you must give us Mrs. Li an explanation today. ”
Lu Caiqing didn't want to talk, so he stood aside, Lu scolded this dead girl countless times in his heart, but because outsiders were present, he didn't care, waiting to settle the account afterwards.
She heard people calling for names, so she had to straighten out her hair, pull her padded jacket, and walk over with a smile on her face.
"Steward Li! Look at your early morning, you haven't drunk saliva when you come in, you are so angry, you adults have a lot, you have something to say! ”
Seeing that Steward Li didn't pay attention to his dedication, Lu said tentatively: "I don't know if Steward Li came to our house with a lot of people, is there something wrong?" ”
Steward Li looked at Lu contemptuously, turned to one side, raised his hand lightly, and said, "Carry people in!" ”
A group of people carried the door panel, wrapped in a quilt, and was carried in front of the Lu family by those family members, Lu Caiqing looked at it suspiciously, guessing in his heart who the person on the door panel would be?
At this moment, Steward Li didn't go around the bend, and said sharply: "Lu's! This is a normal marriage that you and I want, but your daughter died after marrying in, you should give us Mrs. Li an explanation! ”
When several members of the Lu family heard this, they were shocked, but they didn't dare to lift the quilt to confirm it, which shows her status at home.
It turned out that lying on this door panel was Lu Caifeng, the eldest daughter of the Lu family, who was carried into the Li Mansion by the Li family as a bride price of two taels of silver the day before yesterday and made a small child for his stupid son.
But everyone knows that although the son of Mrs. Li's family is a fool, he has a quirky temperament, is notorious, and sadistic, although he has a rich father, but who is willing to send his good daughter into the tiger's mouth.
Lu Caiqing looked at Lu Caifeng on the ground, and tried hard to recall, this eldest sister is usually silent, but she is not much better to herself, and now she has nothing to do with herself.
It turned out to be Lu Liangsheng's mother-in-law, who was fascinated by ghosts, and heard the coaxing of Mrs. Liu's rhetoric, so she sold her daughter for two taels of silver, thinking that if her daughter survived in the future and gave birth to a boy and half a girl, she would not also borrow light.
Who would have thought that just a day later, her dream would be shattered like this, but she knew in her heart that the Li family was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she must have asked them to give an explanation when they came to mobilize the people like this today.
As soon as he thought of this, Steward Li opened his mouth: "Lu's! In other words, this kind of thing happened to our Li family before, but your family is different, your daughter doesn't eat or drink when she arrives at our house, and her young master died before she has a round house, which adds bad luck to our family, are you cheating on marriage? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Liangsheng's legs were fat, and he collapsed directly to the ground in fright, Lu turned around and glared at him fiercely, then turned his head and said with courage: "Steward Li!" This person was taken by you, one hand to pay the money, the other hand to the person, how can we cheat the marriage? I'm a good yellow flower girl and said it's gone, we haven't settled accounts with you yet, why did you bully us, is there any reason for this! My Feng'er! Why did you leave your mother behind! ”
Lu's voice was high, sitting on the ground and crying like a play, the more she felt that she was reasonable, her roar attracted the neighbors to come forward to watch the excitement, she felt that she had a backer, so she performed, and she played a bitter scene on her daughter.
Steward Li didn't care how she howled, and said, "Lu's! Today we are here for one purpose, you stay, the money will come, we should not have this kind of thing in the future, otherwise our lord said that he would take you to the official and sue you for cheating on marriage! ”
Lu raised his head and howled: "You are still unreasonable, we are dead daughters, you still want money, neighbors, you give me a comment, is his Li family too deceitful." ”
Lu Caiqing looked around, and the neighbors who were watching were all indifferent after hearing this, and they didn't mean to support her, which shows how bad their Lu family's popularity here is usually.
Seeing that no one responded, the Lu family suddenly lost his backbone, after all, it was a small family that had never seen the world, but he would rely on the peasant woman's arrogance to roll around, and when he saw that no one cared about him, his momentum weakened suddenly.
"We are bringing you back, we must take away the silver today, and this matter will be passed today, otherwise we will go to see the official now, it is not just a matter of paying back the silver."
Lu Shi was speechless when he heard this, and sat down on the snow in fright, Lu Cailian heard that she was going to eat a lawsuit, and immediately ran to her and said, "Mother! Just pay back the money! The eldest sister's poor and sour life will not be blessed, and it will affect us when she dies! ”
"Silly boy! If we have money, what do we have to do with him? Lu said in a low voice.
"Where's the silver?" Lu Cailian asked in surprise and confusion.
Lu replied in a low voice: "You don't need money for your clothes!" Besides, your brother lost a bet last year, where do we still have silver. ”
When Lu Cailian heard this, she stood up and immediately shouted: "Lu Qiang! Why are you gambling again, there is a big event at home, do you want us to go to prison together? ”
Lu Qing put his hands in his sleeves, dodged a few steps, and muttered timidly: "Second sister! Didn't you wear your new clothes too? You've been in the village for a long time? ”
Lu suddenly broke the jar and said, "Steward Li! Since there is no silver, you can see what is worth in our house, and you can look at it and take it! ”
Steward Li listened, looked at their leaky house, sneered and pouted: "It's not worth selling your broken house, don't talk nonsense, the master said that if you don't have money, you will go to see the official." ”
"No, no, no! Let's not go to jail. While shaking his head, he looked around, suddenly stood up, pulled Lu Caiqing over, and pushed it in front of Steward Li: "Look at it!" Would it be good to take her back to pay off the debt! ”
Lu Caiqing was watching the excitement, and suddenly was vigorously dragged by someone, listening to her words, Lu Caiqing really wanted to step forward and slap her a few times.
