208 Drowning
"Thank you, little ding." Nangong smiled kindly, "I'm very satisfied with this house, Ah Fu, look at it!" ”
Ah Fu took out a fifty taels of silver and put it in Xiao Ding's hand, deliberately amplified the volume and said, "Take it, this is what you deserve!" ”
Ah Fu collected the deed, turned around and followed, and there was a person in the tooth shop praising Xiaoding behind him.
"Xiaoding, you are so lucky, in just one hour, you sold a big yard."
"That's right, this patron is not dressed well, he is really generous, fifty taels of silver will be rewarded! It's worth a year's worth of our income in town! ”
"It's really lucky that someone else comes to the dental industry as an apprentice and can't open it for a year, but you can make a lot of money in three months."
"There is also a commission of fifty taels of silver, you are going to get rich this time, but you are an apprentice, should you pay some filial piety to your master?"
"Take five taels of silver out and buy some good wine and meat for your master, it can be regarded as not cultivating you in vain."
Xiao Ding pursed his lips and smiled, with the testimony of these uncles, then the commission from the sale of this yard should belong to him.
However, Nangong Gongzi is a guest that the master gave him to practice, and he will not monopolize this money, fifty taels of silver...... With the fifty taels of silver in hand, you can solve many problems......
"Whew!"
Lao Feng suddenly sneered and snatched the silver reward from Xiao Ding's hand, and at the same time broke the harmonious atmosphere in the room.
He stared at Xiao Ding coldly and scolded, "The price of this courtyard is 52,000 taels of silver, and you sell it at a price of 2,000 taels, do you still think you are quite capable?"
Who will make up for the loss of 2,000 taels of silver, and it is not that I have to deduct my master's salary! The fifty taels of silver and the fifty taels of commission silver will be used to deduct it! ”
Xiao Ding's eyes widened: "Master, didn't the county lord say during his training that 50,000 taels of silver in that house is the lowest selling price, and the tooth shop will not lose money, I ......"
He stepped forward and grabbed Lao Feng's sleeve, with a pleading voice in his voice, "I don't want the commission of silver, and I don't want so much silver, you can give me one or two...... No, 500 yuan is fine, my father is dying of illness and needs money to get medicine, Master, please......"
Lao Feng raised his foot and kicked it hard: "You lost two thousand taels of silver for your tooth shop, and you still have the face to ask for money, you get out of the tooth shop, you don't have to come again in the future!" ”
The people on the side couldn't see it, and they came over to persuade: "This house was indeed sold by Xiaoding, you are doing it a bit too much......
"Lao Tzu teaches the apprentices who are not angry, what does it have to do with you!" Lao Feng kicked again, "Get out, I'll be an eyesore when I see you!" ”
Xiao Ding was kicked in the shoulder and rolled out into the street from the tooth shop, and the pain was so painful that he almost fainted.
He hurriedly climbed in again: "Master, I was wrong, don't drive me away...... I don't want any more silver, not a penny......"
He was too young to go anywhere, so he finally found an errand job in the dental shop, with a hundred yuan a month, he was very satisfied, really satisfied, he couldn't lose this job......
Lao Feng held the silver in his hand and kicked it again: "Get out, don't force me to be ruthless!" ”
At this time, the voice of a little girl outside the dental store sounded: "Xiaoding, it's not good, go back quickly, your father is dead, you go back quickly......"
Fishing Village Commercial Street.
There was a surge of people.
Nangong Yi bought a house and was in a good mood.
He planned to go to Gu Qing, and the two of them would be neighbors in the future, so he didn't look up and look down.
Gu Qing held a coconut and inspected the store all the way, drinking as he walked.
"Bought it?" Gu Qing walked over and asked, she was still very concerned about whether Xiao Ding had successfully sold the house.
Nangong Yi nodded: "We will be neighbors in the future, and please take care of the county lord in the future!" ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" Gu Qing responded, she didn't plan to live here permanently anyway. Besides, it's time to plant rice in Nanzhou in May, as well as her cotton and peppers...... After coming out for so long, it was time for her to go back to Nanzhou.
The two were chatting, and suddenly, there was a howling sound behind him, Gu Qing turned around, and saw Xiao Ding's child, crying loudly and running forward, with a sad face.
He ran in a hurry, and the whole person stumbled and fell to the ground, just at the feet of the two of them.
Gu Qing bent down and helped the child up: "Xiaoding, what's wrong with you?" ”
"My dad, my dad is dead......
Xiao Ding was out of breath crying, and just stood up to run, but his legs were weak and he fell again.
Only then did Gu Qing notice that the kid was also injured on his shoulder, and he was still elated when he looked at it before, but what happened after just a while?
Nangong Yi helped pull Xiao Ding up: "Where is your home, I will send you back with the county lord." ”
The dog was crying and cried: "...... in the willow lane in the town"
As soon as he heard about the willow alley in the town, Xia Zhu knew that this was the poorest alley in Yuhua Town, and several families could live in one yard, all of whom were poor.
She put on the carriage and drove the car herself, Nangong Yi helped Xiao Ding, and several people rushed to Xiao Ding's house together.
The willow alley is only half a meter wide, very narrow and damp, and the sun can't shine in.
The carriage could not enter, and the group could only get off.
walked down an alley to the end, and finally arrived at Xiaoding's home.
The door opened, and there was a small courtyard, and there were many people in the yard, all around the door of a house, pointing and pointing.
"Daddy!!"
Xiao Ding let out a mournful cry and rushed in.
"Xiaoding, why did you come back, this kid."
"Your father drowned himself to death, what a cruel man."
"What can I do if I leave you three brothers and sisters?"
“……”
Xiao Ding went in, and with his two sisters, he lay on a middle-aged man and cried.
Gu Qing and the others stood in the courtyard for a while, and then inquired about what happened, the courtyard is not big, there are four families, Xiaoding's family of four lives in one house, and the mother has long died.
My father was sick, he had a cough all day long, and he didn't get better by taking medicine every day, and then he broke his leg and lay in bed for more than a year.
Yesterday I coughed up blood, and I heard that I had to spend a lot of money to get medicine, Xiao Ding's two sisters wrote a deed of sale, planning to sell themselves cheaply to raise money to see a doctor, but today, Xiao Ding's father put his head into the bucket and drowned himself.
Gu Qing sighed, not knowing what to say at all.
"If you don't pay the rent for a month, you dare to die in my house!"
A chubby woman rushed in.
"Roll up the cover and get out! It's so fucking unlucky, how can I still live in this yard, it stinks to death! Get out, get out of here! ”
Xiao Ding's eldest sister knelt on the ground and prayed: "After my father is buried, we will move out immediately, please forgive me for a few more days......"
"Grace fart!" The landlord scolded, "Pay this month's rent quickly, get out of here with your father's body, bad luck, bad luck is dead!" ”
The landlord covered his nose, looked disgusted, and cursed.
Ah Fu was an outsider, and he was not lightly angry, he pulled Xiao Ding up: "Didn't you earn a hundred silver just now, take it out and smash her face!" ”
Xiao Ding's tears flowed: "I didn't make any money, I didn't have anything, and the master deducted all ......"
