Lu Quan and the others were released only after paying the silver money for the imperial grain on the second day.

This time, the imperial grain of the seven households in Xiaoxinzhuang was all paid by the fourth child of the Lu family who went to the Ding family to borrow money.

When Lu Yangge went home yesterday, he asked Qiu's family, and convened the big guys to discuss, and finally everyone said that they wanted to pay it.

It's just that when the family doesn't come back, some of the money doesn't know where to hide.

Qiu's decision, my family will go to the Ding family to borrow it first, and when you come back, you will return the money to us, and we will pay it back to the Ding family.

On the second day, each of the seven families sent a man to the town to hand over the money. Hand over a household, cross out the name of a household.

The Lu family was the first to hand over, and when Lu Quan went out, the rest of the families in Xiaoxinzhuang were so anxious that they rushed to the window, afraid that the Lu family would leave, and their family would leave behind the imperial grain without money.

Fortunately, the six households immediately followed and all paid the money, and everyone was released.

That night, no one slept well, whether it was the arrested family members or the women and children who stayed at home.

When I met, I couldn't help but have red eyes.

Since ancient times, the people did not fight with the officials, and this time they have tasted the bitterness of the bitterness.

If it weren't for the dead dough cake sent by Xiao Si, one person divided two pieces to cushion his stomach, and he didn't know how much he suffered.

There were also a dozen or so people who had been locked in with them, but they had not eaten more than one day and one night, and they were hungry and thirsty, and their eyes were bloodshot when they went out.

As soon as they got home, Zhang San and Li Sixi sent silver money first.

Chen Ping'an spent most of the money in his hand because he learned to use an oil-paper umbrella, and only took half of it when he came to repay the Lu family's money. I felt guilty in my heart, and I vigorously promised that when the oil-paper umbrella I made was sold, I would definitely return the Lu family's money.

The remaining three, the Winter Solstice family has no money, and they said that they will pay it back when they harvest the wheat next year. The second aunt of the Ma family and the dog Danniang didn't know whether it was discussed, or what, the two came together and sent thirty yuan each, which was confiscated by the Qiu family.

"Dozens of dollars are sent to make sprinkles."

Lu Xiaoli muttered while cleaning up the stove, "I've never seen such a disgusting person, while crying and crying that there is no money, I took out dozens of dollars and said that I had all the money in the family." This kind of person should be locked up and helped. ”

"What do you say?"

Qiu's head gave Lu Xiaoli a slap, "The girl is rattling, she has broken her mouth all day long, what does it look like." ”

I don't know if Qiu's slap was heavy, or if Lu Xiaoli was in a bad mood, Qiu's slap actually knocked her tears down.

"Mother, I don't understand, why do you help them so much, you look at Aunt Ma, she chatters every day, saying that she has little land and little land. Why, does her family have the money to buy it? Her family is too little land, so give her another three acres, do you ask her if she buys it? Do you have the money to buy land but not the money to pay the imperial grain? Now that our family has advanced money, she will take dozens of dollars, who should she do? ”

"Don't tell me that their family has no money, and if there is no money, Aunt Ma will talk endlessly. His family has so many strong laborers, not to mention that making eel cages earns more than everyone, so he harvests rice for our family, and you and your father don't know how much money his family earns. How can you have no money, is it a fool to be a person? ”

"Is our family rich? Our family's money is also borrowed, so why should we help them? Xiao Si asked Brother Xiao Wu to borrow money, it was the Ding family's refreshment, and he borrowed it as soon as he asked. What if the Ding family doesn't borrow it? Don't you lose face when you're a little four? Why did Xiao Si borrow money to help their family? ”

The more Lu Xiaoli spoke, the more angry he became, and he pointed at Lu Xiaosi who was standing aside and shouted: "Lu Xiaosi, let me tell you, my father and mother are thin-skinned and embarrassed to refuse people, so you have to be tough for me." You are the man of our family, you are the eldest brother, you are the eldest son. If you are like your father and mother, my eldest sister Xiaoyu and I will be bullied by my in-laws in the future, how can I expect you to ......"

"Little carp."

"Lu Xiaoli"

"Second sister."

"Second sister."

The Lu family scolded in unison, and Lu Xiaoqing stepped forward in a hurry to cover Lu Xiaoli's mouth.

How can you say that your father and mother are in a bag? They just have a good heart and can't see others suffering.

"Am I wrong? Isn't it? ”

Lu Xiaoli struggled, and before he could speak, he heard the door creak, and Boss Ma walked in with a smile.

"That, Brother Lu, I, I'll pay it back."

As he spoke, he untied the money bag in his hand, took out the scattered silver and copper coins from it, and carefully placed them on the square table.

"The second daughter-in-law is a brainless person, she took the wrong money bag, and thought she had no money at home."

In fact, the money bag was snatched by Ma Lao's second daughter-in-law, saying that she sent it, who knew that she was not willing to send it, but she discussed it with the dog, and only sent 30 Wen.

When I went back, I was proud to show off, and I was slapped by Ma Lao's second son, and now I'm howling at home.

Boss Ma looked at Lu Xiaoli who was wiping his tears guiltily, "What are you crying about, it's cold and your face is crying." Looking back, I'll ask Orchid to make a pair of shoes for you and Xiaosi, this time thanks to your sister and brother, or my uncle doesn't know how long he will be locked up. ”

As he spoke, Boss Ma's tears followed. The tall and thin man squatted on the ground and covered his face and cried: "Brother Lu, I'm not afraid of being embarrassed." My brother and daughter-in-law are not a good one, if it weren't for your family to fish out all the big guys, she would have been ruthless enough to refuse to hand over the imperial grain and keep me locked up. ”

"You say, if I don't come out, what will happen to my orchids and orchids? Her mother didn't want her own life, and she wanted to throw the orchid on the boat, didn't she ...... Woowoowoo......"

Lu Quan and Qiu Shi glanced at each other, and understood in their hearts that probably Boss Ma heard what Xiao Lii said.

This is equivalent to scolding people in their faces, no wonder Boss Ma couldn't hold back.

Seeing Ma Boss crying, several children of the Lu family couldn't help but look at each other timidly, Lu Xiaosi took the lead and picked up Lu Xiaowu, followed by Lu Xiaoyu. Lu Xiaoli was still a little at a loss, and was dragged by Lu Xiaoqing and slipped out of the hall one by one.

As soon as he went out, the dog dan carried a wax duck into the yard, and when he saw the five sisters and brothers standing on the verandah, the dog dan smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Little four, where is your father and your mother?"

"Yes, yes." Qiu Shi hurriedly picked it up from the house.

Behind him, Lu Quan poked his head out: "Come in, it's cold outside." ”

"Hey." The dog dan entered the door with a smile, and his somewhat ashamed voice could be heard through the wall, "What, this is the imperial food money that your family helped, as well as the pickled wild ducks in this house, make a soup for the children." ”

"What are you doing?" Qiu's voice of resignation sounded, "Take it back, give the duck to the dog eggs for them to eat, we have it at home." ”

The wild duck was caught by the big guy in the reeds in the autumn, and when he killed two of them, the big guy ate them together, and a few of them were divided one by one.

The dog egg family was reluctant to eat it, and this wild duck was pickled and kept all the time, ready to add meat to the New Year.

I didn't expect it to be delivered to Lu's house today, it can be seen that it was because of the unkind things done by the dog, and I felt guilty.
