Chapter 17, I'm Not a Deserter!
Zhou Dagu opened his eyes in a trance.
The dilapidated house, the cobwebs made up, a bad smell that can't be explained, and the cry of a female ghost next to it, this ...... Where is this? Am I dead? Is this hell?
"Brother, are you awake?" Zhou Ruyi pounced.
Zhou Dagu was not used to physical contact with outsiders, and was just about to dodge, when he saw the little girl's face clearly, he was suddenly stunned: "Ruyi? ”
"Isn't this hell? …… It's my home! ”
He felt that this kind of start, it was better to restart!
"Our family, so poor?"
Zhou Ruyi cried with a sad face: "Won't you be poor soon?" ”
"You won the lottery?"
"Brother, what is a lottery ticket?"
"My bad, huh...... What's the good news? ”
Zhou Ruyi's big eyes slowly turned red: "I'm getting married!" ”
"Shit, our dad just went, I just came back, who are you going to marry without us talking?"
Zhou Dagu stretched out his hand and touched the head of the little girl who rescued him: "What's the matter, you tell me clearly!" ”
Zhou Ruyi's eyes were red, the little girl was strong, maybe she cried without tears: "After you leave with your father, Wang Yuanwai often comes to our house!" ”
"A few days ago, news came from the county town, saying that one hundred and ten soldiers were missing, and he said that you and our father were among them!"
"Our family owes him five taels of silver, and he said, you and your father can't come back, and I can't pay him back this money, so I want to marry him as a concubine to offset the five taels of silver!"
Zhou Dagu lay on the bed and sighed heavily: "I want to blind his heart, don't worry, I'm back, did you see the wolf skin that my brother brought back?" ”
"Those wolf skins, although they are not good goods, but they are fine for thirty or forty taels of silver!"
Zhou Ruyi's eyes became even redder, and the tears in his eyes were about to drip out: "Brother, I'm sorry for you!" I've already sold the wolf skin! ”
"Your fever is too serious, I was afraid that you would die, so I went to the doctor, but the doctor said that they couldn't cure this disease!"
"I know, it was the guard at the door who passed the news of your return to the doctor, telling them not to treat you, there is no way, I can only go to the Taoist temple today to get those wolf skins on top."
"Only then did I get a bowl of rejuvenation water from the Taoist and saved your life!"
"But Wang Yuanwai has just come again!"
Only then did Zhou Dagu see the two big red boxes at the door: "Silly girl, you are here to save your brother, I am sorry for you!" ”
"Isn't it just five taels of silver, sister, don't worry, my brother is different, my brother is now a Confucian student who has entered the country, as long as I think of a way, I am not afraid that I will not be able to earn these five taels of silver!"
Zhou Ruyi shook his head: "It's useless!" ”
There was a commotion in the courtyard: "Little lady, how are you thinking about it!" Our lord is a big family within a radius of hundreds of miles! You know the conditions of your family, as long as you marry our master, he will definitely give your family a rich bride price! ”
Zhou Dagu kicked away the quilt: "Help me out, your brother is back, you don't need to worry about these things, I will die first when the sky falls!" ”
Zhou Ruyi nodded, as if he had found the backbone of the heart, and helped Zhou Dagu out of the door.
In the courtyard, there are two strong men with bare arms standing on the left and right, the strong men are muscular, and they should be martial artists who have not entered the country.
In the middle of the strong man stood a short old man, the old man did not hide his aura at all, he should be a martial artist of the four grades and three realms.
The old man's eyes lit up when he saw Zhou Dagu: "Yo! Da Gu woke up? I see that you are recovering well, why don't you rest again! ”
"Actually, I have already discussed the matter of your sister-in-law with your village chief! Five days later, it will be an auspicious day, and then we will take advantage of the night to pick up the relatives, and you can send people out! ”
Zhou Dagu was disdainful, and spat in front of him: "Phew! I'm still here, my sister's matter, it's useless for you to discuss with anyone, I'll decide this matter! ”
The old man shook his head: "I can't help you!" Your lord, borrowed our lord, five taels of silver! ”
Zhou Dagu nodded: "Isn't it just five taels of silver, I admit it!" ”
The old man was the king, and his eyes circled: "No, no!" It's been a month now, and the profits have been hundreds of taels, but they are all from the villagers, and our lord will erase a fraction of it for you, even if you are a hundred taels! ”
Zhou Ruyi hugged Zhou Dagu: "You are not bullying people, it was originally five taels, no matter how you roll, it can't be a hundred taels!" ”
"Hey! The little girl's family, this kind of thing, how do you know, I'll tell your brother! ”
The old man looked at Zhou Dagu: "Da Gu! Do you admit this kind of thing or not? ”
Zhou Dagu took a deep breath, for him, anything that can be settled with money is not a big deal: "Old housekeeper, can you say that it only takes one hundred taels to settle the debts of our two families?" ”
The old man nodded and smiled: "It seems that you Zhou Dagu has benefited from the border pass, and you are confident!" Of course, as long as you can repay the debt, the two of us naturally have no debts, but you kid think about it, this is a hundred taels! ”
Zhou Dagu nodded: "Yes, in the evening after three days, you come, I will give you a hundred taels!" ”
He knew in his heart that he couldn't make salt, he could still make sugar, and he really couldn't be a second-hand poetry dealer.
Big wins are a world of Confucianism, and talented people will not suffer anywhere.
If none of this happens, he'll still be able to run!
He is not a big winner in his bones, what kind of honesty is he talking about! He's a true profiteer.
The old butler nodded and smiled: "It's good if you admit it!" Well, there will be no business for us in the future, and in the evening in three days, I will get the money! ”
"You remember to clean up your guest room for me, if you can't get the money, I will stay for half a night, and I will take the bride away directly!"
"Then we'll get out of the way!"
Zhou Dagu looked at him suspiciously.
"Bang!" The door was kicked open.
A column of catchers quickly entered the courtyard, and the head catcher pointed at Zhou Dagu with a big knife: "You are Zhou Dagu?" ”
Before Zhou Dagu could speak, the old housekeeper pointed at him: "That's it, it's him!" ”
"Take it!" The head of the catcher gave an order, and the two catchers were about to buckle Zhou Dagu with chain locks in their hands.
Zhou Dagu took a step back and pointed to the sky: "You dare, I am a scholar who has entered the country, and I can't punish scholars without evidence, don't you know that this is a big win for the ancestral system!" ”
The head catcher sneered: "Sure enough, it's a nerd, this is the ancestral system that wins big, but this ancestral system can't control Xiangzhou, and the world loses to scholars first, but we are the only exception in Xiangzhou!" ”
"In our Xiangzhou, the military household is the sky above the head, and now ...... Your desertion has happened, you can't escape! ”
"What are you doing in a daze, take down this nerd!"
The two catchers were strong and strong, holding Zhou Dagu's hand and handcuffing, after Zhou Dagu entered the country, his body was against the two strong men, which was not a problem.
It's a pity that he is too weak now to have the strength to resist.
Zhou Ruyi looked at him with red eyes: "Big brother, what should I do!" ”
At this moment, if you don't understand what it means, Zhou Dagu should really be stupid!
The collusion between officials and businessmen, sure enough, the old method, this old guy has no chance to make money for himself at all.
In other words, this matter is not about money at all.
They are going to swallow their own sister openly!
Outside the damn Wang Yuan, Zhou Dagu scolded secretly: "Ruyi, wait for me to come back, don't worry, the eldest brother will be fine!" ”
He turned his head to look at the old butler: "Play this with me, you really don't know who the black-bellied ancestor is!" ”
Outside the door, the villagers gathered.
Zhou Dalang entered the house on the night of the moon and entered the official mansion at sunset.
An old Ji looked at Zhou Dalang and pounced: "Big Gu!" We are all from the same village, please tell me, where is my second child, you all went out together! ”
Arresting Zhou Dagu and getting into the prisoner car.
Zhou Dagu turned around and shouted: "Grandma Wu, we are not deserters, don't worry, your son is not a deserter, I will come back!" I will definitely be back! ”
"Sister, everyone, are waiting for me Zhou Dagu to come back!"
The head catcher was disdainful, and the horsewhip was raised: "Dog's day, the governor of Yumen Pass has already notified the state capitals!" ”
"When the demons came, you ran away! Greedy for life and afraid of death, vainly for our Cai County people! ”
Zhou Dagu stared at him: "We didn't run, we killed the demon barbarians, and we finally followed the adults from the capital to go on a mission!" ”
"They all died at the hands of the demons, we didn't escape, we are not deserters!"
The whip in the head catcher hand was raised high, looking at Zhou Dagu's eyes, inexplicably afraid in his heart, the whip never fell!
