Chapter Ninety-Seven: Father and Daughter Recognize Each Other

The shopkeeper of the teahouse had a serious illness a few days ago, and the required medicine has spent most of his life savings. In desperation, he had to borrow some money from the Ma family, but it was this money that was still in his ability to repay that brought great trouble.

Because his illness had not been cured, he could not hand over the money he owed to the Ma family within the specified time, so they took the opportunity to raise the interest rate, so that in the end, the shopkeeper ended up unable to repay.

Profit rolling. The money owed by the shopkeeper of the teahouse will be more and more, and if he can't make up the money after three days, I am afraid that this teahouse will be owned by the Ma family, and the little savings that the shopkeeper has saved in his thrifty life will all belong to the Ma family.

"Second steward, I beg you, you can give me a few more days, time is in a hurry, I really can't come up with so much money!" The shopkeeper didn't say a word, but knelt down in front of so many tea customers, and pleaded with tears in his eyes.

Seeing this, the tea guests all put down the tea sets in their hands, and everyone stared at the second housekeeper of the Ma family, wanting to see how he was going to deal with this matter.

The shopkeeper is kind, and he is also a well-known loyal person in Yuanhancheng, the weather here is hot, and there are many people who come to drink tea, but no matter whether the tea you call is expensive or cheap, he is happy to treat them equally, even if it is a shy traveler in the bag, he will also smile and offer a cup of cold boiled water to relieve their fatigue.

When he was sick, he didn't borrow money from his friends, in order not to trouble everyone, he chose to borrow money from the Ma family privately, but he didn't expect that this kind of behavior would harm him.

Most of the people who come here to drink tea are some old customers, and everyone naturally hopes that the second housekeeper can let go of the shopkeeper.

"How many days of grace? Don't be stupid, how can there be such a good thing in the world? If I let you go, can Master Ma let me go? Besides, even if you are given a few more days, it won't be that you have no money to pay it back, and the money you earn from this teahouse is not enough for interest, what will you pay back?"

The second housekeeper saw that the tea guests were all looking at him, and everyone was angry, so he had to explain to the shopkeeper, which meant that he had only one way out, that is, to give the teahouse to the Ma family.

"This Ma family is too much of a thing, how can they do this, the villagers are a little difficult, those who borrow money from them have no benefits, this kind of person is also a squire and celebrity?

"That's it, they don't have a good thing in the Ma family, I said the second shopkeeper, you have to talk to them well, the shopkeeper is a good person!"

The tea guests talked a lot, and everyone worked together to plead with the shopkeeper, hoping that the second housekeeper would not embarrass him.

"This".

The second shopkeeper fell into a dilemma, if he didn't say anything at this time, I was afraid that everyone would not let him go.

"Daddy, if you can help the shopkeeper, you must know that when I was young, I drank a lot of free tea here!" Zhou Qian slowly walked into the second shopkeeper and said softly, tears immediately appeared in her eyes.

Her words startled everyone in the room. The second housekeeper rubbed his eyes, and was very happy after seeing Zhou Qian's face clearly, his daughter finally came back.

Brother Leopard was also surprised, he didn't expect that the arrogant second housekeeper was actually Zhou Qian's father, his already clenched fist immediately stretched out again, and he felt that it was better to solve the problem in a peaceful way.

Zhou Qian's words completely made the second housekeeper fall into a hesitant situation. At the beginning, Zhou Qian swore to die and refused to marry into the Ma family, so he could only become someone else's family to repay his debts.

In the beginning, he was in charge of the flowers and plants in the back garden, not only doing the dirtiest work, but also being bullied by other house slaves, and suffering harsh punishment for the slightest loss. It was the darkest period of his life. There were even a few times when he was beaten up by several young and strong house slaves, and even thought of suicide.

But at the end of the day, he was just a mortal man, and he didn't have the courage to end his life. In the end, he gritted his teeth and persevered.

Fortunately, he was favored by the son of the Ma family later, so he turned over. After becoming the second housekeeper, the first thing he did was to ravage the minions who bullied him in the past, and then send these people to clean the toilet.

It is precisely because of the hardships he has suffered too much in the past that the second housekeeper cherishes today's life extraordinarily, although his daughter opened her mouth to him, but he didn't want to let go of the teahouse shopkeeper.

"This, Qian'er, you also know, I am a slave in the Ma family, and I entered their house as a slave in order to repay the gambling debts of the year, if I don't take the money back, the Ma family will not let go of the teahouse shopkeeper!" The second shopkeeper glanced at Li Ling and Brother Leopard with the rest of his eyes while persuading his daughter, guessing what the relationship between the two of them and his daughter was.

"Ask for money, huh. Brother Leopard remembered that he had gained a lot in prison, and the families of those prisoners were not less filial to themselves, and he was still a little confident when it came to money, and his long-term life as the boss in prison made him understand one thing: things that can be solved with money are not a problem.

"I don't know how much money the shopkeeper owes you, I'll pay it back for you!" Brother Leopard asked casually, his tone full of pride, but with a little contempt for the second butler.

"Forty beads, with interest. The second housekeeper said honestly, inadvertently glanced at Brother Leopard a few more times, and said that when he met in Pingshui, he was actually willing to fight for others, this person was either a fool or a rich and noble person.

"Good!". Brother Leopard happily took out his bank card and gave it to the second housekeeper.

The second housekeeper's eyes rolled a few times, and he said in his heart that he really didn't see that this guy who burned buns was still a local tyrant, but it seemed that he liked his daughter very much, maybe this point could be used.

Now that he got the money, the second housekeeper naturally had no reason to embarrass the teahouse shopkeeper anymore, but he proposed that Zhou Qian and the three of them go back to Ma's house with him, after all, he had already left his home, which was very simple, and it was really inconvenient to entertain Li Ling and the two.

It was difficult to resist the enthusiasm, Li Ling had to agree, but he thought in his heart that once Zhou Qian's life settled down, he would go to the Great Elder to discuss the matter of jointly attacking the Great Qian Dynasty.

But what he didn't know was that it was because they went to Ma's house that another entanglement was triggered, although the final result was quite satisfactory, but Zhou Qian suffered a lot, and Li Ling also reacquainted himself with Brother Leopard, and was impressed by this rude-looking man.

The cause of the incident was because of the second housekeeper, the so-called tiger poison does not eat children, but what is unexpected is that he will attack Zhou Qian in a frenzy.
