The two men are about the same height, but Gao Changhe looks stronger, while Zhou Pingan is slender, like a white-faced scholar. When these two men fight, everyone will subconsciously think that Zhou Pingan is the weaker one, and they will run away when they see Gao Changhe.
, everyone was slightly stunned.
In just a moment of confusion, Gao Changhe had already disappeared at the door.
To be honest, Gao Changhe didn't want to be so embarrassed, but the two of them had a fight that day, and he was beaten very painfully. He really wanted to backhand Zhou Pingan, but after struggling for a long time, the injuries on his body became more and more serious, let alone
If you fight back, you will only get a beating.
Chu Yunli chased him out of the door and said loudly, "I only give wages to the workers. If others want to take it, there is no way."
At first, everyone didn't know the reason for their dispute, but after hearing these words, they all understood immediately.
Gao Changhe came here to collect wages for his wife.
It is not impossible to leave this matter to others. After all, everyone agrees that the man is in charge, but there are so many grievances between Gao Changhe and Lin Hehua, so it is normal that they cannot get it.
This incident soon reached the ears of Yang Lanhua. She specially came to Chu Yunli to express her thanks.
"That man just looks decent, and the rest are humiliating." Yang Lanhua looked down with disdain. "Hehua, please don't give my wages to others in the future. You just helped me a lot right then."
Every time Chu Yunli thought of Yang Lanhua's marriage, she felt uncomfortable. She nodded and said, "I've written it down."
Lu Dali has been spending a lot of money recently. In the past, he often invited his so-called brothers to drink and chat. The wine must not be too bad, and there must be food and drinks. He spends a lot of money on this every month. Recently, he has been even more helpful.
He was very generous when it came to Chang He's marriage. The marriage cost more than Gao Changhe's previous marriage, which cost him seven taels of silver.
The betrothal gift and flowers given to Gao Changhe when he married Lin Hehua were all paid for. The main reason was that Lu Dali felt that he was sorry for his brother and took the initiative to take the loss.
For Lu Dali, seven taels of silver was nothing. Before this year, he impulsively sold Mian. Before Mian made a move, he still owed several hundred taels of interest.
The snowball was getting bigger and bigger, and they were chasing him every day. But Lu Dali could talk, and he did have two brothers who had a life-long friendship with him who were willing to vouch for him, so he delayed it again.
One month.
They don't collect debts, but they still collect interest. These days, Lu Dali has been secretly looking for someone to take over his batch of goods. There are quite a few people who are interested in taking over, but no one is willing to bid. Most of them are
Wanting to take advantage of the situation, Lu Dali would save his capital if he sold at the price they offered.
He shipped the goods because he wanted to repay the capital and interest. It was not possible to protect the capital. The Lin family's silver and interest should be repaid, but his own part of nearly three hundred taels of silver could not be recovered no matter what.
.
In other words, if this one doesn't work well, Lu Dali will have to lose everything, and it won't be that easy to get up again in the future.
He never sold it and wanted to find a good buyer, but he never found one.
He can wait, but the creditor cannot wait.
The Zhou family's father and son lived in the hospital, but when Chu Yunli returned to the Lin family's house every day, Zhou Ping'an would personally see him off. That day, the two of them were walking on the street when they suddenly saw many people running in the direction of the Lu family at the intersection in front of them.
Chu Yunli became interested and dragged Zhou Ping'an to follow.
On the way there, Chu Yunli learned about what happened in the Lu family.
Lu Dali owed others several hundred taels of silver, and the compound interest had reached 600 taels. The creditor came to his door and threatened to collect the debt forcibly if he did not give an explanation.
When Chu Yunli arrived, she immediately saw Lu Dali, who was blushing and thick-necked at the door. Not far behind him, Mrs. Wang was holding on to the door frame with frightened eyes. On the contrary, Xinghua was more courageous and stood beside her father all the time.
.
"Please allow me a few more days." Lu Dali was a little excited. "I'm famous for my righteousness in this town. Whenever I owe money, I will definitely repay the debt. It's just that I haven't found a buyer for my goods."
Brother, you know all this."
"I know, but I have already given you a month. My brothers all need to eat. Even if they tighten their belts and live a life, they still have wives, children and children at home. What I have given you is real money. If you don't say anything,
Pay back all the principal and interest, at least pay back some capital to me." The visitor was gentle, but his attitude was tough. "You must give me an explanation today. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain to my brothers when I go back."
"Here." Lu Dali gritted his teeth and said, "Please bear with me for a while."
He closed his eyes and saw the crowd. He knew that he had been embarrassed today, but it didn't matter whether he was embarrassed or not. What mattered was to fool the creditor first. He fixed his eyes on Chu Yunli and said, "Hehua, come in.
I have something to tell you."
Chu Yunli waved her hand, "I have spent all my money and I really can't lend it out. Don't embarrass me."
Lu Dali was unwilling to "take away the land deed"
Chu Yunli interrupted him, "That's the ancestral property of my Lin family. It can't be used as a pledge. You wasted all your efforts on me before, so you might as well think of something else."
She took a step back, waiting like everyone else to see how he would respond.
Lu Dali was filled with hatred. The creditors over there were looking at him with eager eyes, as if he would force his way in if they disagreed. The deed of the house he lived in was pledged. If he hadn't repaid the debt for so long, they could definitely put his family to death.
drive people away.
Being laughed at is already very embarrassing. If he is kicked out and homeless, how will he behave in the future?
The only way now is to admit the loss this time. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will ship the goods and pay back the principal with interest later."
After saying that, he left quickly.
The creditor didn't believe him and chased him personally.
It was getting late, so Chu Yunli did not go over to watch the excitement, but returned to his home. After having dinner with Zhou Pingan, he packed some for him in a food box and took it back to Dr. Zhou.
When sending him out, the Luo family who rented Chu Yunli's yard passed by the door and said hello with a smile.
Chu Yunli vaguely heard them talking about Lu Dali. They must have gone to watch the fun before they came over. She asked curiously, "How is it over there?"
The little grandson of the Luo family is only thirteen this year. He was helping Chu Yunli to dry the dried seeds recently. When he heard this, he immediately said, "Lu Dali shipped the goods and even bought six hundred taels over there. People in the town used to always
I have never believed that the Lu family is rich. Seeing that their food and clothing are not much better than ours, I have seen it today. For six hundred taels of silver, I paid off the debt directly without even giving a break." He shook his head.
Shaking his head, he expressed admiration, "I wonder how many more Lu family members there are?"
Before he could finish his words, he was slapped on the back of the head by his father next to him, "Stop saying a few words and go home and sleep quickly. We have to work tomorrow."
Chu Yunli closed the door, washed up, and was about to go back to rest when the knock on the door came again.
Lin Hehua didn't know how much money Lu Dali had, but not many families in this town could afford five hundred taels. This should be all the Lu family's savings. Hearing the knock on the door, Chu Yunli was so blessed that he couldn't help but feel sad.
As soon as I opened the door, I already knew who was outside.
Sure enough, Mr. Wang was standing at the door.
Chu Yunli yawned, "Mom, I'm tired after a long day. If you have anything to say, please tell me."
Mr. Wang's eyes were swollen from crying, "Lotus, your Uncle Lu lost money in business, we..."
Chu Yunli yawned again and interrupted her, "He has been collecting the rent of the Lin family's house and his father and son these years. I didn't eat the Lu family's money in vain. It's his business to pay for it, and I can't take it."
Provide money to help pay off the debt. I have a lot of things to do tomorrow, so you should go back first."
Mrs. Wang cried even more sadly, and said in tears, "Uncle Lu collected a total of 200 taels of silver and bought 600 taels of cotton. The remaining 300 taels, apart from the dozens of taels obtained by pledging the Lu family's house, the rest is for the Lin family."
Those who scraped together. Later, you forced him to take back the silver and the deed. He had no cash on hand and could not sell the goods, so he went to borrow the interest. Now it cost him six hundred taels just to pay back the interest.
.He lost everything and couldn’t even get back the money for the house.”
After listening for a long time, Chu Yunli became a little impatient: "You come here crying at night, what do these debts have to do with me?"
Mrs. Wang choked and stared at her with tears in her eyes, "Our family will have no place to live."
Chu Yunli mocked, "That's your family, I'm not from the Lu family."
"I'm your mother." Mrs. Wang couldn't believe it. "You girl, I and Shu Shulin are not having a good time, can you feel at ease?"
"I can." Chu Yunli raised her hand and closed the door. "When you are homeless, I can give you a mouthful of food and a roof to cover your body, but this is my filial piety as a daughter to my mother. As for others,
None of my business."
Ms. Wang was stunned. Seeing her daughter about to close the door, she hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop her. "I have something to tell you."
Chu Yunli's eyes were impatient.
Mr. Wang continued, "Uncle Lu is very safe in his work. He has only suffered this failure in the past few years. He has many brothers outside. Those people will definitely help him and he should be able to make him rich again soon."
Get up. I came to you just to ask you to borrow some money and redeem the land deed first so that our family can have a place to stay."
Chu Yunli closed the door directly.
Wang was unwilling to give in and took pictures outside for a long time, but couldn't open it.
Before dawn, the tofu shop's clerk came over, getting ready to start a busy day. Something was different today. There were two people squatting at the gate. Yang Lanhua, who was the first to arrive, was almost frightened.
"Orchid, it's me." The person who spoke was Lu Dali.
Yang Lanhua saw a dark thing there from a distance, and was so frightened that she was about to run away. After running a step, she heard a familiar voice. She paused for a moment. At this moment, Wang lit up the huozhezi and used the
In the faint light, Yang Lanhua recognized the two people clearly.
She didn't like Lu Dali very much, and she didn't like to say hello. Wang was different. She didn't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face. She was her employer's mother.
"You guys stayed up most of the night, what are you doing here?"
Yang Lanhua pretended to be confused. Others may not know this, but she heard Gao Changhe mention the things Lu Dali did and knew that the couple came here to borrow money.
She reminded, "Sister Lotus doesn't get up until midnight. If you are looking for her, you'll come too early."
"It doesn't matter, we are here to help." Lu Dali stood up and followed her through the door.
Yang Lanhua opened her mouth, wanting to refuse, but she felt that she, a young waiter, could not stand in that position. She took a moment and quietly ran to knock on the owner's door.
