Chapter 168: The Creditor Comes to the Door
I originally thought it was a little beggar, but after being caught, everyone found out that although the child looked embarrassed, there were no patches on his clothes.
If you look closely, you can see that the small hairpin pinned to the head, although it is made of wood, is finely carved.
If you look closely, this person has soft facial features and a crisp voice, obviously a girl.
I look like I'm about seven or eight years old.
And now, she was choked and pale, and she looked like she was about to lose her breath.
The person who grabbed her couldn't help but let go.
"Oh, oh no, I'm afraid this kid is going to choke to death!"
"What can I do? The four dogs of my second uncle's family and the third uncle were choked to death like this in the first place! ”
"Is there water? Is there water? Bring me a bowl of water and give the boy a drink. ”
"It's useless, you can't drink water if you're choked, you can only shake things out!"
Everyone watched, but no one stepped forward.
Zhou Chuchu couldn't help but step back when he saw everyone, and his heart was desolate.
Could it be that today, she is going to die on the spot?
At this moment, she felt that she could not breathe at all, her chest ached for a while, and her eyes were black.
What is stuck in my throat, I can't spit it out at all, and I can't swallow it at all.
It's getting harder and harder to breathe.
"Sister, don't panic!" The little girl's voice rang in her ears.
Then something came to her lips.
It's water!
She didn't think much about it, so she picked it up and drank it down.
Someone shook his head next to him.
This chokes on, and it's useless to drink water.
It's not an ordinary choking food, and if you look at it like that, you're going to have a short life.
Xiao Ayu took out the gourd from her pocket, which was a prop prepared for her by Mrs. Wang.
Just guard against Xiao Ayu, who will give water to others to drink in public.
The small gourd was not much big, and Zhou Chuchu drank the water in only three or two sips.
It's so sweet, sweeter than the ice and snow melt soup at home.
Before she was choked to death, she could still drink such delicious water, and she finally didn't have such regrets.
"Sister, are you still uncomfortable? Do you want to drink it? ”
Xiao Ayu was also very nervous in her heart, she saw that this young lady didn't speak for a long time, so she quickly squatted down and tilted her head down to see if the sister had closed her eyes.
Dango said that if a person dies, his eyes will be closed.
Not only Xiao Ayu is curious, but the people around her are also curious.
Everyone was staring at Zhou Chuchu, who was sitting on the ground.
Suddenly, Zhou Chuchu raised his head violently.
It scared everyone.
"I ...... It's okay. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Zhou Chuchu's face flushed, she had not been noticed by so many people.
Liu also walked up, and she didn't have a good impression of this little girl who grabbed things.
"Since you're okay, let's compensate, you robbed us of something just now." Liu pulled Xiao Ayu up and asked her to keep her distance from Zhou Chuchu.
This is the master who will grab things at any time, who knows if it will be a bad boy.
The words that Zhou Chuchu shouted just now were not clear, so Liu and Xiao Ayu didn't hear it.
"Yes, kid, no matter how hungry you are, you can't grab anything."
"Our Nanhe Town, can't there be a robber!"
"That's it, you're a new beggar, aren't you? Obey the rules, or you will be kicked out. ”
Everyone said a word, and Zhou Chuchu's face turned red into pig liver, and he couldn't wait to dig a hole in the ground and get in.
"I didn't want to rob ......" She was really hungry.
Zhou Chuchu looked at Xiao Ayu and whispered, "I'm just here to collect things, and your old Wang family owes us something." ”
She was quite smart and didn't say in front of so many people that she was here to collect money.
The Liu family originally wanted to say that their old Wang family didn't owe anything, that is, all the debts were paid off.
Suddenly, she thought that a few days ago, her mother-in-law had said that they had a foreign debt of 2,000 taels.
It can't be a creditor, right?
With the attitude of believing what he has rather than believing what he doesn't, the Liu family brought Zhou Chuchu back to Lao Wang's house.
The people around wanted to see the excitement, but they were scared away by the cold faces of the people who protected them in private.
After arriving at Lao Wang's house, Liu told Mrs. Wang about the little girl.
But the old lady Wang did not say that this person was a liar, but only said to her: "You said that our family owes you, what is the evidence?" How did you find our home? ”
When Mrs. Wang is not angry and arrogant, she is particularly bluffing.
"I'm inquiring." Zhou Chuchu shrunk her neck, it was really that this grandmother's aura was too strong, and she felt even more fierce than her grandmother.
It turned out that Zhou Chuchu was the granddaughter of the shopkeeper of Zhou Ji's pawnshop.
Zhouji Pawnshop is the pawnshop that lent money to Mrs. Wang.
"My grandfather originally forbade me to come, but the shop at home was calculated by bad people, and now it is in his hands. My father and others were imprisoned, my grandfather was also so angry that he fell into the evil wind, many foreign debts could not be recovered, and his former relatives and friends are now strangers. In desperation, the little woman dared to give it a try. ”
I don't know why, Zhou Chuchu, who was originally quite able to speak, didn't dare to lie in front of Mrs. Wang, so he could only tell his origin in 1510.
"Grandfather said that you are a kind person, when our shop was occupied, many things were not left, but grandfather desperately protected the token you left, this is it."
Zhou Chuchu took out something from his arms, and when he looked closely, it was a jade wrench.
The jade color is clear, and there seems to be something hidden in it.
She vaguely learned from her grandmother that there was such a family with the attitude of trying it out.
She first found Hujia Village, and later learned about the current whereabouts of Lao Wang's family by pretending to be pitiful and begging.
I observed the steamed bun shop opened by Lao Wang's family again, and then met the people of Lao Wang's family.
But after being delayed for more than half a month, she didn't have the courage to come to the door to ask for debts.
The little money on his body was also used up, and in the end, he was really hungry, so he did the thing of grabbing pastries.
Naturally, she didn't dare to rob other people, only thinking that the old Wang family owed them a lot, so she acted impulsively with a breath in her heart.
But when Mrs. Wang saw the jade wrench, she sighed and said, "If you come to our house now, I really can't take out 2,000 taels of silver." ”
The light of anticipation in Zhou Chuchu's eyes gradually dimmed: "The doctor said that my grandfather's medicine can't be stopped now, otherwise his evil wind will be more serious." ”
My grandfather was the pillar of the family, and if he fell, the family would really be scattered.
My father and others will also be imprisoned, and now there is no one to check on them, and I don't know when they will come out.
She observed for a long time, saw that Lao Wang's steamed bun shop was doing brisk business, and thought that they should be rich.
No matter what, my grandfather can always pay for some medicine, right?
Mrs. Wang touched the jade wrench, and her heart was full of thoughts.
I thought it might be a few years before I got this thing back.
At the beginning, it was not only the jade wrench finger that was left, but there were also some things, but they were all given to the shopkeeper as a thank you gift.
At that time, there was war, jewelry, gold.
Those things weren't worth much when they were in war, but they were worth a lot after the war.
That old Zhou shopkeeper, no matter what, he will not lose.
But it's not beautiful to care about that.
She looked at Zhou Chuchu, who was dressed as a beggar in front of her, and suddenly remembered an old beggar who was sent out of the door.
"I owe you a lot of money, but there is something I can do, maybe I can help." Mrs. Wang said.
When Zhou Chuchu heard the first half of the sentence, she was even more disappointed, she didn't bring hope, but in the end, there was a trace of luck.
A person who is praised by his grandfather for his outstanding character can't repay his debts no matter what, right?
In order to show her sincerity, she gave the jade wrench directly to the other party.
When she was the most bitter and hungry, she protected the jade wrench well.
"The money can't be paid yet, but your grandfather's illness, maybe I can find someone to help treat it." Mrs. Wang said.
What?!
Zhou Chuchu stood up suddenly, because the movement was too big, and the chairs behind him were pushed down.
Can you save your grandfather's illness?!
"Can you make your grandfather heal?!"
Mrs. Wang shook her head: "I can't guarantee this, and I'm not a miracle doctor." ”
What's more, I have to talk to Ayu about this.
The gene repair solution used for the old Wang Tou and Wang Chuangui at the beginning, there are still some leftover from the old lady Wang.
If she was right, it should be a cure for the Evil Wind.
If the evil wind can be cured, it can be regarded as repaying the great favor of the year.
She will also owe Ayu more because of this.
