The rise of the poor

Chapter 62

In the battle for water, Xiahe Village won an unprecedented victory, winning ten flags in total. Each flag has a five-day water period, and ten flags are a fifty-day water period. Next year's harvest is guaranteed.

The competition for water was a big victory, and the men, women, and children of Xiahe Village were all boiling. Until the meeting ended, they were all excited to talk about what happened to the children of the old Zhu family.Xiahe Village was victorious, and the village elders and Li Zheng went straight to the ancestral temple in the village to comfort their ancestors.

When Lao Zhu's family was preparing to eat dinner, a few young people from Xiahe Village were leading a jar of old wine, a pig's thigh, and a bag of rice into the door of Lao Zhu's house.

"Old Uncle Zhu, you have raised two good grandchildren, especially your little pig, who is doing very well today. This is what I discussed with the village elders, so don't refuse." Li of Xiahe Village is exactly one The uncle in his 40s is the kind of slick-faced person who clasped his hands and talked to his grandfather.

The competition for water was won, and all the villages celebrated together. Grandfather just refused and accepted it, and then greeted the other guys in the room to sit down for tea and drink.Li Zheng declined to say that there were other descendants to leave, thanked his grandfather for his kindness, and soon led a few guys to leave.

In the evening, Zhu's father made an exception to drink a few more glasses of wine and was slightly drunk.

The uncle of the Zhu family also came home from the ancestral hall, as if nothing happened, just like before, with the pride of a scholar.

Time passed slowly like this for more than a month. Zhu Ping'an rode an old scalper to school. He came out between classes to teach two loli, big and small, about shooting the vultures and talking about Xiaoao Jianghu. Except for the more and more things the master talked about, the rest were basically Nothing has changed.

Oh, it's not that there is no, every time I tell a story to the big and small loli, an activity is added, which is to watch the big and small loli dance the rabbit dance and sing the song of pop, of course, eating is unavoidable.

As for the ability of Qi Luck, Zhu Ping'an has done many experiments, and has generally figured out a part. These four words are the key. You can generally watch Qi Luck once every ten days, and you can watch it for about three seconds each time. Time is very tasteless.

In addition to these, Zhu Ping'an also used the name of the Chen family when he visited the neighborhood to play, and told the aunt and the daughter-in-law that they would be given free raw materials for them to process into purses, and then purchased from them, each by the town. 10 cents on the price.The aunt and the daughter-in-law went to Chen's place to confirm, and Chen's was also shrewd. Although she knew that Zhu Ping'an was using her name, but after calculating the account, she felt that she could make a profit, so she assured them that it was true.In short, the big basket was given to these aunts and daughters-in-law, except for the eldest aunt and the third and fourth aunts.Excluding the manual fee, Mr. Chen went to the town and sold it to the store, earning more than one or two silver coins all at once.It's just a pity that when I went to the cloth store to buy a rag head, someone bought it.This made Chen Shi, who had earned more than one or two silvers, felt distressed.

Time passed slowly for more than a month. In the evening after more than a month, Zhu Ping'an rode the old scalper and wandered home as usual, but the difference was that this time the old Zhu family gathered a lot of people again. When he saw Zhu Ping'an riding the old scalper back, he gave him a sympathetic look.

What happened, Zhu Pingan shuddered.

Pushing open the door, the house was in a mess. Mother Chen slumped on the ground crying, and the elder brother Zhu Pingchuan also had red eyes and weeping.

Father Zhu Shouyi was lying on a stretcher, trying to comfort the crying Chen Shi with a painful expression. One leg was intact, but the other was wrapped in a white cloth, and the white cloth was soaked with blood.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Ping'an was almost stunned.

In his mind, Father Zhu was a strong man like a cow. Although he was not good at expressing himself, the love he gave was no less than that of Mrs. Chen, and he was also the pillar of his own small family, using his body for his own small family. Shelter from the wind and rain.It is precisely because of such a strong man that he can travel through himself like a child without any worries.Before going to town to sell rabbit skins in the morning, Father Zhu smiled and asked Zhu Pingan if he wanted the rice paper from last time.

However, this iron-clad man is now lying on the stretcher with a painful expression.

Zhu's father is so honest and honest, and he is righteous and honest, and he has never had a grudge against others.This time I went to the town again, there would be no danger, only someone would make a bad move.

"Who, who wounded father?"

There seemed to be a fire burning in Zhu Ping'anjue's heart, Gulu climbed down from the scalper's back at once, and ran to Zhu's father with red eyes, tears slid down his angry chubby face.

"Don't cry, I'm fine. The doctors have said that it's fine to rest for a month without any injuries." Father Zhu was lying on the stretcher, enduring the pain and trying to comfort everyone.

The rest of the Zhu family are also there, the women are all six gods and no masters and don't know what to do, and the little fourth uncle is also shocked. This time it is the town he went to with Zhu's father.It's just that the uncle's eyes on one side dodged a little.

"I went to town with my second brother, and then I sold the rabbit skins for money. Before I could go far, I was surrounded by five or six people. Those people asked my second brother if his name was Zhu Shouyi, and the second brother said yes and asked them what they wanted to do. What, they want the second brother to pay back the money, saying that the second brother borrowed 10 taels of printed money more than a month ago, and now the profit has turned into 15 taels. The second brother was blinded at that time and never borrowed money."

"The man took out the IOU written by the second brother himself, saying in black and white that you should not try to deny it, and robbed us of more than 100 yuan for selling rabbit skins, and then started beating people without any explanation. Said that this time it was only light, and left the legs first. I mean, if you can’t get the money after three days, you’ll really break your leg.”

When the fourth uncle talked about the town, he was still scared, even though he was kicked twice by others.

"Second, what are you borrowing money for? What bad things are you doing outside?" The grandfather was so angry that he nearly fainted. He stood in front of Father Zhu with a thick stick and asked loudly, blowing his beard and staring.

"Father, how can Shouyi borrow money from my family!" Mother Chen cried and protected Zhu's father.

"No, Dad, I don't have any money, what do I do with the money. Besides, my son doesn't know a single character, so how can he write an IOU!"

Father Zhu looked aggrieved and bitter.He was beaten inexplicably, and when he got home, he was still suspected, and his heart was bitter.

"It's definitely not the money my dad borrowed!" Zhu Ping'an said loudly with red eyes.

"But that IOU has your father's name on it, and it's even handprinted." The little aunt on the side also felt a little unbelievable.

"My father doesn't know how to write!" Zhu Ping'an retorted angrily, and the chubby face flushed with anger.

The matter seems to have entered a dead end, and loan sharks will not come to ask for money for no reason. They will only sign and post a loan when they are lending, and then people will rely on this IOU to ask for money.The county magistrates will not let them go if they make it up casually.But Zhu's father obviously did not borrow usury loans, and he did not sign or pledge.

So how did this loan shark come about?
