Chapter 16: March Gambling Contract

The Xu family can't afford to pay a penny!

But the money Xu Ling owes to others is definitely not a minority!

In addition to Liu Wang's money, there were other miscellaneous creditors, such as the town's grain shop, pork shop, and blacksmith shop...... It can be said that everyone who was willing to lend money to the original owner was borrowed by him.

From a dozen to a few dozen taels!

As for what the borrowed money was for, the original owner was a gambler, so he naturally threw all the money into the gambling house.

As long as the family does not starve to death, as long as he has a little money on him, all of it is used for gambling, even the chicken he stole before he died is also to gamble in exchange for money.

Such a rotten gambler, he couldn't live in peace when he died, and threw such a mess for Xu Ling.

As the saying goes, lice are not afraid of itching, usually during the New Year's holidays, there are many people who come to Xu's house to collect debts, Xu's mother sometimes wields a broom to drive people, or Laipi, so that people can see what else is valuable at home, and take it all away.

Some of the people who are willing to lend Xu Ling money are well-intentioned, some are not refusals, and they are not bad people, and they were forced by Xu's mother to admit that they were unlucky and left by themselves.

But Liu Wang's is different.

The tall and thin man standing behind Liu Wang's family is Zhao Zhen's uncle Liu Ding, this Zhao Ding is a carpenter, and there is nothing to do, but his sister married well, married to the richest Zhao family in Lianhuawanzi, and finally his own son was also helped by the Zhao family to be a government official in the county government regardless of status.

Although he is just an ordinary official, he has something to do with the official, and ordinary people are afraid when they see the official, so who cares if they are a big official or not.

Liu Ding is Zhao Zhen's uncle, and Xu Ling naturally has nothing to do with half a penny, no matter how Xu Ling says, he shouldn't borrow money from him, but who calls Xu Ling and the Zhao family and the two sisters Gu Zhen and Gu Yao.

Xu Ling was thick-skinned, asked Gu Zhen to go back to his parents' house to borrow money, and couldn't borrow it, and threatened to beat Gu Zhen and the eldest girl, forcing Gu Zhen to go to Gu Yao.

Gu Yao hid a little bad intentions and wanted to rectify Xu Ling, so he gave him the idea to go to Zhao Zhen's uncle to borrow money.

Liu Ding is afraid of his daughter-in-law, at home is the Wang family in charge, she relies on her son as a servant, and the family has a little spare money, so she borrows money, as long as she gives her enough interest, how much to borrow is not a problem.

If people can't afford to pay it back, she will use her son's official skin to send them to the government, forcing others to be afraid, so she can only mortgage the family property to her at a low price.

Therefore, the Xu family was very afraid of her, and they were afraid that she would throw Xu Ling into prison.

Xu Ling figured out these joints, and she didn't know what to do, she sneered: "Aunt Wang, you see how I forgot about this matter, you first dissipate your anger, let me go, and scare the child." ”

Wang's nose let out a breath, and he glanced at Xu Ling disdainfully and said, "You are a little gangster, and you are also worthy of being called my aunt?" Xu Ling, don't fix these for me, pay back the money quickly! ”

"You borrowed thirty-three taels of silver from me before and after, and now you should repay me fifty taels!"

The Wang family directly opened his mouth and asked for a price.

The farmer buys an acre of fertile land for only eleven or two taels of silver, and the original owner borrows money from her for no more than two months, and the interest can buy an acre of fertile land and an acre of medium land, which is too dark!

Xu Ling was kind enough to ask her for more time, but Wang grabbed him by the collar and asked him to pay back the money quickly.

Xu Ling was very tired and a little aggrieved, to put it bluntly, what do these things have to do with her? She hadn't done anything bad in her previous life, so why was she overstretched and embarrassed by everything now?

The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, Xu Ling held back a breath of evil fire in her heart, but she still patiently explained to her.

Wang's voice became louder and louder, and he couldn't wait to make everyone in the village noisy to see the joke, and the big girl in the house was so frightened that she couldn't stop crying.

Xu Ping and Xu An were also crying, cowering and not daring to make a sound.

Wang's figure was pulled by the ending sunset like a giant, Xu Ling lowered his head in front of her, and he didn't dare to make a sound.

I couldn't bear it, I didn't need to endure it anymore, Xu Ling said loudly: "Okay!" Enough is enough! ”

Wang was stunned for a while before he reacted, and became even more angry, "Okay, you Xu Ling......"

"It was Gu Yao who took me to borrow money from you, otherwise you and I don't know each other, why did you lend me so much money? I'm willing to pay you back now, but I don't have a penny at home, if you don't want money and just want me to go to jail, then you can just go! When I go to jail, you still won't be able to get any money! ”

Xu Ling simply broke the jar and said loudly: "Hurry up, let your son arrest me, it's not that I don't want to pay you back, and you don't want to give me a long time, then you hurry up and hurry me up!" I'm not paying it back! ”

Liu Ding pulled his woman's arm behind him, pursed his lips with a wink, and whispered: "He doesn't have half an acre of land at home, just these two rooms, don't force him to be anxious." ”

When Wang heard this, his nose was almost crooked, and he mentioned how kind he was to lend Xu Ling money.

Xu Ling looked scoundrel: "Then you should be kind enough to give me a few days!" ”

Wang was extremely angry: "You are a wreck, how long will you be able to pay back thirty-three taels?" ”

"Okay, thirty-three taels! That's what you said! Three months, I'll give you back! ”

"Thirty-three? It's fifty! "Wang didn't forget to ask for interest at this time.

Xu Ling said scoundrelly: "Fifty? Then you can wait another ten or eight years, anyway, I don't have it now. ”

"Okay, you Xu Ling, you can get thirty-three taels in a month, but you can't get fifty taels?"

"I can't make it!"

Wang was angry again.

Xu Lingjiao Erlang stood there locally, looking indifferent, he had already thought about it, it was a big deal to go to prison and die quickly, she couldn't live a day of this bird's life!

Mother Xu cried: "Pay you back, we will pay you back, there is no land at home, there are no children here, if you can't pay back your money at that time, you will have to pay back the girl in the house if you sell it!" Don't send my son to jail! ”

Xu Ling pulled her aside and sold a fart child! As long as she lives, this can't happen!

Wang Shi seemed to hear what she wanted, she pulled Xu An to look at it and said: "The girl is dirty, she looks quite good, and when the time comes, it will be worth a few taels of silver if she sells it to a rich family as a maid!" ”

Not to mention that there are still those big and small ones at home!

The corners of Wang's mouth rose, and he glanced secretly at the inside of the room.

Xu Ling saw her purpose, and immediately couldn't bear it anymore, and hurriedly called Xu Ping to drive the couple out of the yard together.

"Three months, I'll give you forty taels! If I can't do it, you take my life!" ”

Xu Ling's whole body was trembling, his eyes were red, and he clenched his fists, almost squeezing out the words from his teeth.

"Hmph, you can do that?" Wang didn't take his words to heart at all, sneered, and finally left.
