Sister-in-law from a poor family

Chapter 4 Borrowing money to buy a wife
Listening to the systematic voice in his ears, Qin Mianmian was not surprised.

Isn't she fighting against evil people? Why did her merit points decrease?

Well, she originally had five points, but now she suddenly only has four points left.

When she heard the points were deducted, she felt her head buzzing and she was stunned.

Wan Luoshi, who was hit twice by her in a row, raised his hand again when he saw this, vowing to take back the two hits he had just received.

Mrs. Fu Chen was startled and shouted quickly, but she was so stupid that she didn't know how to step forward.

Upon seeing this, Fangfang raised her hands, covered her eyes and cried out in fear.

But Wan Luoshi's slap still didn't fall. This was the third time she raised her hand today, but she still didn't hit anyone.

Fu Jingbo, who had already gone out, came back at some point. At this time, he was standing behind Wan Luoshi, holding Wan Luoshi's raised arm with one hand, his face expressionless.

Qin Mianmian was originally immersed in the sadness of being deducted and did not realize that Wan Luoshi was about to take action. It was not until she heard her gasp that she suddenly came back to reality.

Looking up, Wan Luoshi's facial features had been twisted together, and he was grinning. He looked so funny.

"What are you doing? You still want to do it." Qin Mianmian pouted and immediately put aside the sadness of being deducted and sneered.

"Okay, your family still dares to take action if they don't pay back the money they owe, that's incredible." Wan Luoshi was almost going crazy and scolded her with gritted teeth.

She didn't expect that she would run into trouble when she came to collect bills. When did her family members become so powerful?

"You won't pay back the money you owe?" Qin Mianmian successfully grasped the key point and frowned at Fu Chen.

The latter looked away from her eyes with a guilty conscience and acquiesced.

Yes, that’s true.

Qin Mianmian's heart skipped a beat before she said, "How much do I owe you and why? Tell me clearly."

Wan Luoshi thought she was going to be a rogue and was about to act shady, but unexpectedly she suddenly started to be reasonable.

"How much do you owe?" She sneered: "Don't you know how much it cost to buy you?"

"Sister-in-law Luo, we agreed at the beginning that this money would be returned to you after my family has saved enough firewood and sold it." Fu Chen sighed and interrupted the two of them.

"How much is it?" Qin Mianmian asked seriously.

She knew that the family was having a hard time, but she didn't expect that they still owed foreign debts.

In this barren place, a small amount of debt could crush a whole family to death.

"How much, two sticks, can you get it?" Wan Luoshi said with disdain, looking Qin Mianmian up and down.

"I don't believe that you, a person who was sold here, still have a dowry on you." She added almost firmly.

Qin Mianmian glared at her irritably, with impatience in his eyes.

This woman was so noisy, her sharp voice made her head hurt.

"Mom, please tell me the ins and outs of borrowing money." She couldn't ignore this matter now.

Not to mention the kindness of the Qin family, her merit system did not allow her to sit idly by.

Maybe if this matter is resolved, her merit points will increase.

Fu Chen hesitated for a moment, then slowly explained the cause and effect clearly.

It turns out that the Fu family is not from Wansheng Village, but just moved here a few years ago.

Needless to say, Qin Mianmian could guess how difficult it would be for a local to settle down in the village.Mrs. Chen mentioned all these things in one sentence, starting with the reason for borrowing money.

"It was your Aunt Luo who said that someone she knew could introduce a suitable girl to marry her. She just needed money. I didn't have it, so she took the initiative to lend it to me."

"At that time, I said that our family had no income and that we would not be able to repay the money we borrowed for a while. She said that we should just wait until we sell firewood to collect enough money and then pay it back."

"Who would have thought that in just three days, she would come to ask for a debt."

After saying this, Fu Chen felt sad and wiped her tears with her somewhat worn sleeves.

"How can our family have money? We can't even afford it, so she wants me to use our pig as interest. We raised that pig with great difficulty, and we have to sell it to buy everything we need for the winter."

The more she talked, the sadder she became. Fu Chen's tears fell one by one like broken beads.

She clearly didn't cry, but Qin Mianmian felt that she was almost desperate.

Even so, Mrs. Fu Chen did not forget to pull Fu Jingbo, who had been holding Wan Luoshi's arm, to her side, and protected him, who was much taller than herself, behind her like a hen protecting her young.

She had a feeling that if the pigs at home were taken away by Wan Luoshi today, she might really not be able to survive.

"Don't be afraid, mother." Subconsciously, Qin Mianmian patted the back of her hand and comforted her in a low voice.

"Aunt Luo, do you have any other explanation for what my mother just said?" She turned her head and looked at Wan Luoshi and asked loudly.

"Whatever you say, that's it. Your family owes me money, and if you can't pay it back, you'll give me the pig as interest." Wan Luoshi, who had the upper hand, snorted.

"I still see that your mother has had a hard time these years, so I reluctantly agreed to use the pig as a mortgage."

"You're such a nice person, do we still have to thank you?" Qin Mianmian curled her lips and asked unceremoniously.

"If you borrow two thousand dollars for three days, you have to pay a pig as interest. This abacus trick can be heard in the town. Why, we are all fools when we pay our family members to let you scheme."

Qin Mianmian looked her up and down: "I don't think you are good-looking, Aunt Luo. Why do you think you are so beautiful?

From the very beginning when you asked my mother to introduce a girl and took the initiative to borrow money, you must have come here because of this pig.

Even the biggest landowner in town wouldn't dare think of you as a pig for two cents. "

She directly exposed Wan Luoshi's little trick and sneered.

"What do you mean?" Wan Luoshi, who originally thought he had the upper hand, froze with pride on his face: "Do you think I am plotting against you?"

"The beads of your abacus are all falling off my face. Isn't this a plan?" Qin Mianmian snorted coldly.

"I'm afraid you have forgotten that there is a fool in our family who is not very clear-headed. He doesn't like anything else, but he only likes the pig at home. If you take the pig away and see if he beats you, it will be over. .”

After saying that, she raised her eyebrows, as if you were trying to take her away.

Fu Jingbo, who was next to him, had an expressionless face. After hearing what she said, his eyebrows visibly jumped. Then he turned to look at her. His dark eyes seemed different from before.

"You're scaring me." Wan Luoshi didn't believe it and immediately walked to the pig pen.

Fu Chen was shocked. She knew that her son would not care about such things.

Her son can only do one thing, and that is chopping firewood, and this is what she taught her with all her efforts.

To this day, she still remembers the way Fu Jingbo kicked the bushes when the firewood got stuck in the bushes, and then slapped the firewood several times.

It’s really dumbfounding.

Just when she was thinking that Qin Mianmian was bragging too much, Fu Jingbo, who had always been indifferent, suddenly took a step forward, blocking Wan Luoshi's way to the pig pen.
