So, you see, unless the knife pierces your body, you will never know the pain.
As the eldest brother, Uncle Dong habitually becomes invisible when something goes wrong at home, leaving all matters to Old Man and Mrs. Dong to handle.
Even though Old Man Dong obviously couldn't handle it, he had no intention of taking action.
Dong Nuan felt that it was time for the other party to realize his responsibility as the eldest brother.
Therefore, with just a little stimulation, you can successfully get Uncle Dong online.
It was a good thing that Uncle Dong didn't speak. As soon as he opened his mouth, Old Man Dong thought that when he was dizzy just now and his vision went dark, this son didn't know where he went. He came back with him obviously, but in the end, no one was there at the critical moment.
.
After squinting at Uncle Dong, Old Man Dong snorted coldly: "There is no delay, so you have to pay for it."
One sentence successfully turned off Uncle Dong. The second aunt, who originally wanted to speak out, thought about it and swallowed what she wanted to say.
If I jump out at this time, won't I be forced to take the money?
That won't work!
If the old man doesn’t go out, why should his family go out?
Their family is still just a quasi-scholar, but Dong Xu is already a child. In comparison, the elder is more anxious.
No one in the Dong family spoke for a while, and Mr. Zhou was angry and annoyed. Finally he gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Dong Panchun, it's unlucky for me that I believed your words and lent you the money! But there is a saying
, I thought I should let your family know that the money Dong Panchun borrowed from me was not to buy books and pens, but to take his classmates to Ruyilou Xiaosa several times, and even took his classmates there.
It’s so uncomfortable to visit the lake and enjoy the flowers.”
Seeing Dong Laowu's face getting more and more ugly, Mr. Zhou felt that his breathing became much smoother. Although he didn't like Dongmei, he still had to get something to offset his lack of money.
Although there is no shortage of maids in the house, they can be sent to Zhuangzi to work diligently as coolies!
After thinking about it, Mr. Zhou folded his fan and said, "Take these four away, five taels of silver each, and the teeth are not as bad as yours."
This was because they wanted to use Dong Nuan and the others to pay off their debts. Hanjiang Tower became anxious when he saw it in the crowd. Just as he was about to go forward and redeem Dong Nuan, he heard Uncle Dong yelling: "Dad!"
This was for fear that they would become slaves in the warm winter and affect his son's future.
Old Man Dong looked at him coldly, and there was no emotion in his tone: "My father-in-law has no money, and he can't pay it back. Either Lao Wu will find a way by himself, or we can take Nuan Ya and the others away first."
As if he didn't want Dong Nuan to think too much, Old Man Dong thought for a while and said: "Nuan Ya, don't be anxious. When I get money later, I will redeem you first."
Dong Nuan knew that Old Man Dong was acting like this just to force Uncle Dong to take the money and settle today's matter first.
Because he knew it, after listening to what Old Man Dong said, Dong Nuan nodded obediently and said, "Yes, I believe you."
Uncle Dong felt that his eyes were going dark. He was like Old Man Dong just now.
However, Hanjiang Tower was so anxious that he almost lost his sense of control, but now he came to his senses.
Anyone who is smart knows that Old Man Dong is forcing Uncle Dong to use money to pay off his debts.
Of course, he didn't let him take it for nothing. There must be an agreement between the brothers to repay the money in the future.
Uncle Dong also understands, and Auntie Niang understands even more.
Although the aunt was unwilling, she finally gritted her teeth and turned around and went back to her room.
Each room can keep 30% of the work it takes privately.
Moreover, many private jobs do not have clearly marked prices, so whether you pay more or less depends on each individual house.
Because of this, each house has a lot of private property.
Uncle Dong has a lot of private property, at least twenty taels of silver can be obtained.
It's a matter of her son's future. No matter how unwilling the aunt is, she has to bite the bullet.
She also saw that Old Man Dong was not satisfied with Uncle Dong's performance just now, and now he was deliberately trying to beat him.
If you just see it, what can you do? You have to follow it honestly?
"Master Zhou, wait a minute, I will help fifth brother repay this money." Uncle Dong also knew that his old father was beating him up, and it was impossible for him to really repay the money in the end.
Seeing Mr. Zhou was about to leave, Uncle Dong stood up quickly, cupped his hands and said politely.
When others saw it, Uncle Dong was really responsible.
"As expected of a big brother, it's just different."
"That's right. If you were a brother from another family, you wouldn't necessarily be able to do this."
"Uncle Erzhuang seems to be beating Brother Dachun at first glance, but you can't see it?"
…
The villagers' discussions were louder and quieter.
Dong Nuan listened indifferently, still savoring the taste of hawthorn sticks in his mouth.
This stuff tastes pretty good.
It's a pity that there are no hawthorns this season, otherwise it would be nice to spawn a few and eat them.
Thinking of the sour taste of hawthorn, Dong Nuan even drooled a little.
Hanjianglou had already taken back the steps he had taken to step forward. When he saw Dong Nuan standing there, seemingly thinking about something, his eyes were blank, and he couldn't help but laugh to himself, he was not as quick as a little girl to react.
But it’s good to react quickly to the warmth of winter. This way you can at least avoid the tragedy of your previous life.
Hanjianglou couldn't leave with peace of mind before the matter was truly resolved, so he kept standing in the crowd, staring at Dong Nuan's position.
If Mr. Zhou really wants to take him away, he will do anything to redeem him.
"Well, I'm waiting." Mr. Zhou was impatient to wait here for too long. Someone would pay back the money, so he didn't bother to take a few yellow-haired girls back.
After Uncle Dong finished speaking, he went to see his uncle's wife. When he found that she was not standing at the door, he knew that she was going to withdraw money.
When the aunt took out the money, she weighed it carefully, so that no one could see how much private property they had in this house, and she couldn't show that she had a lot of money.
It's just twenty taels, and if you take all the coins, she really doesn't have that much. Their family always digs a hole in the east and a hole in the west to hide their money.
Twenty taels of copper coins are too many and difficult to hide.
Therefore, most of the copper coins were exchanged for scraps of silver.
The aunt took the broken silver and all the copper plates in the house. After calculating and finding that it was not enough, she took another silver hairpin.
Anyway, with such a small amount of money, she calculated it again and again, trying her best to show people that they didn't actually have much money in this house.
The aunt came out soon, with all the money wrapped in a rag.
After Uncle Dong took it, the couple exchanged a look, and then they both understood what it meant.
Uncle Dong opened the rag and looked at it, and felt convinced. Then he walked to Mr. Zhou's carriage and said, "I don't have much private property here. I scraped together some, but there was still some left, so I took the silver hairpin that my mother-in-law gave me as a dowry to pay for it."
Arrived."
Hearing what he said, Mr. Zhou rolled his eyes indecently.
Uncle Dong's little thoughts and tricks are only used in the village. The maids in Mr. Zhou's family are more discerning than Uncle Dong. How can they not see this?
He didn't bother to say anything more, so he waved his hand impatiently and motioned for the servant to get the money.
The servant took the money and didn't care about Uncle Dong's expression and reaction. After counting it, he found that it was almost the same, so he replied to Mr. Zhou: "Master, it's barely enough."
