After Xiao Fubao’s Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital

Chapter 52: Making trouble with the official

After this slap, the whole audience was just stunned for a moment.

After all, it was Liu Xiaoru who hit the person. Well, this makes sense.

Of course, even if it was Zhang Yunniang who beat someone, they would probably only think it was reasonable.

As the most influential figures in this house, Liu Xiaoru and Zhang Yuniang are completely half-sisters in the eyes of everyone. They are all jealous, with just one word: reckless.

Little Cai, on the other hand, had only been in this house for a few days, and no one else was willing to let her play with her. Therefore, she had no idea that Liu Xiaoru was a woman who beat her mother-in-law and husband until they cried for father and mother.

"You hit me, how dare you hit me? Who gave you the courage..."

Little Cai hasn't finished speaking yet.

There was a "pop" sound.

Another slap fell **** her face.

Two red slap marks were visible to the naked eye on little Cai's face.

I don't know if it was Xiao Cai's illusion, but she always felt that Liu Xiaoru's slap seemed to be stronger than Zhang Guangzong's, and the slap was more painful.

"I can fight if I want to, I don't need anyone to give me the courage!"

Liu Xiaoru still felt unsatisfied after the beating. She always felt like something was missing.

Whatever comes to mind.

Six-year-old Gu Zhao dragged a broom over and shouted, "Aunt Liu, you didn't take anything."

After getting the broom, Liu Xiaoru was like Sun Wukong getting the golden cudgel. It was very obvious that he was more powerful than a tiger. He chased the little Cai family with the broom and beat him all over the yard.

Finally, he had a chance to deal with this evil woman. If Liu Xiaoru didn't give her a good beating, how could he avenge her for abusing Niuniu.

Zhang Yunniang acted as if she didn't see the commotion in the yard, and said righteously in front of everyone:

"Although my sister-in-law has evil intentions and did not respect me as a sister-in-law in the past, Guangzong is my half-brother after all. Even if his mother never treated me well, even if he never regarded me as his biological sister, I I can’t ignore him, after all, as a eldest sister, this is what I should do.”

Zhang Yunniang had no intention of hiding anything for Zhang Guangzong and his wife. The young Cai family had made such a fuss and made their demands for money obvious. Of course, she also wanted to explain clearly the grudges between the two families.

Zhang Yunniang deliberately concealed the fact that Niu Niu was adopted by Xiao Cai. Even though Xiao Cai and Zhang Guangzong never treated Niu Niu kindly, they had raised Niu Niu for five years after all. Outsiders did not know that Niu Niu had a hard life in those five years and would only kidnap her now with morality. Niuniu thinks that children should remember gratitude.

Zhang Yuniang didn't want her precious daughter to fall into the position of being criticized at all.

Fortunately, now all of Xiao Cai's energy is involved in Liu Xiaoru, and she can't get distracted and interrupt at all.

Zhang Yunniang turned to look at Mrs. Qian tenderly, and said very politely: "Mother-in-law, you are a local. Please help my brother find a doctor. Don't worry about money."

Mrs. Qian glanced at Gu Mingda, and when she saw him nodding, she no longer hesitated and turned around and went out.

Madam Qi came over and, relying on their good relationship, said proactively: "Ms. Gu, since your sister-in-law is unwilling to borrow money from the bank, why not give me this half-profit opportunity? I promise to be grateful to you."

Three months and a half interest is equivalent to borrowing one hundred taels of silver. After three months, you only need to pay back one hundred and five taels of silver.

Five taels of silver may seem like a lot, but in fact most of the money banks on the market lend money at two cents per month. If you borrow money for three months, you have to pay back at least 160 taels. It is no different from robbery. Ordinary people can't do it unless they have to. , and will not borrow money from banks.

Not to mention Fucheng, even in the lower counties and towns, they had never heard of a three-month half-profit bank. It happened that Mrs. Qi's family was in a hurry to use money, so they wanted to take advantage of this opportunity.

Zhang Yunniang smiled bitterly and said: "Ms. Qi, it's not that I won't help you, but my brother has to borrow this money even if he doesn't want to borrow it. Now I'm going to ask Granny Qian to go out and ask for a doctor. In a moment, my husband-in-law will invite the shopkeeper of the bank to your door. My brother is sick, but it doesn't affect his fingerprints." Madam Qi immediately understood that she was asking the Zhang family to borrow money forcibly, and it was hard to bring up her own affairs.

Gu Mingda handed the child to Zhang Yunniang and hurried out. After the doctor prescribed medicine, he walked in with a middle-aged man with a mustache.

The man was wearing a blue gown and a black hat. Gu Mingda called him Shopkeeper Zheng.

Shopkeeper Zheng looked arrogant when facing others, and he always looked indifferent when greeting him. Some people shyly asked for a half-cent loan, but he rejected them all with a cold face.

Only when facing Gu Mingda, shopkeeper Zheng would smile.

"My younger brother is sick. Could you please help the shopkeeper put his fingerprints on him?" Gu Mingda said.

Shopkeeper Zheng didn't think there was anything wrong with this. After taking the money, he pressed Zhang Guangzong's finger on the IOU.

Little Cai was beaten to a disgrace by Liu Xiaoru. If the doctor hadn't arrived in time, Liu Xiaoru would have continued to beat her.

When the doctor was treating Zhang Guangzong, little Cai huddled in the corner of the room. When shopkeeper Zheng came in, she wanted to run away, but the door was blocked, so she could only continue to stay in the corner like a quail.

"I won't lend money, even if it's only half a penny of profit!" Little Cai shouted.

Liu Xiaoru shouted louder than her: "Your man is dying and you don't save him. You are the one who really wants him to die!"

The sound was so loud that Zhang Guangzong, who was so burned that he was confused, heard it and struggled to raise his hand, as if he wanted to say something.

Liu Xiaoru took one look and immediately continued to shout through the loudspeaker: "Look, your man is so angry with you!"

Mr. Cai was very angry, but still refused to put his fingerprint on the IOU.

Zhang Yunniang gave Liu Xiaoru a look, and the two of them, one on the left and the other on the right, directly held down Xiao Cai, grabbed her hand and pressed her fingerprints.

This IOU now has the couple's fingerprints on it, so even if you want to deny it, you can't avoid it.

The doctor who saw the doctor collected the medical fee, and Gu Mingda asked the doctor to issue a receipt for the money.

The money was actually spent, so the doctor naturally did not refuse.

There were many people watching the fun in the yard. In front of everyone, Zhang Yunniang handed all the bank IOUs, medical expense receipts, and the remaining money to Xiao Cai, and calculated the accounts again in front of everyone. .

The medical treatment cost three taels of silver, and a total of ten taels of silver were borrowed. The extra seven taels of silver now are for the couple to spend money in Fucheng.

Little Cai had a lot of white money in her hands, but she was still reneging on her debt: "This account is wrong, they teamed up to take my money!"

But today's accounts are clear, and the bank manager and doctor haven't left yet.

"Ms. Zhang, what do you think is wrong? Is it the medical expenses or the money I lent? If you really can't figure it out clearly, I'll do it for you again." Shopkeeper Zheng said with narrowed eyes.

Little Cai said: "No, it's not right! You and Gu Mingda are in the same group, of course you help him! You forced me to press my fingerprints, and you have no good intentions!"

Before shopkeeper Zheng could say anything, the doctor turned cold and said, "Ms. Zhang, your husband-in-law is so seriously ill, and you have been clamoring for good medicine. I have been practicing medicine in this area for more than ten years. None of the neighbors know that I am "Three taels of silver is already the lowest price for my reputation. If you think I am cheating you, you can just not treat me!"

The doctor said, turning around and entering the room to get the medicine back.

Xiao Cai quickly stopped him and said many nice words before finally comforting him.

After the doctor coaxed him, shopkeeper Zheng spoke again: "Ms. Zhang, how much money I lent is clearly written in black and white on the paper. You are talking nonsense like this and you have stained my innocent reputation. Let's go see the official now and ask him." The adults in the yamen praised me very much!"

Dear babies, there is a lot going on today, so this is the only update. I will update twice every day next month!
