9 Conch Girl
At noon, mother and Yingzi each carried a small mountain-like bundle of firewood back home. Lao Wai hurriedly welcomed them out of the courtyard and followed them.
Okura's mother's heart sank when she saw her husband's eyes were crying as if there were two peaches on his face. She knew that what happened yesterday would not be so easy. It was obvious that something had happened again.
He quickly asked: "Where's the boss?"
"Boss, he——" When he mentioned Okura, Lao Wai suddenly choked up.
This step-son, who has always been called his uncle, was stubborn and ignored him when he first entered the Liang family. Just now he openly claimed to be his son in front of the villagers.
This is really both joyful and sad. The warm family affection once again heated up Lao Wai's sadness, causing it to ferment into rolling tears.
Okura Musume sat down on the ground.
I felt a chill in my heart. Boss, is it over?
Yingzi's face turned pale in an instant, and she grabbed her stepfather's arm, her throat was hoarse: "Uncle, what happened to brother?"
Lao Wai even swallowed more: "Your elder brother, let the Jia family - wu wu -"
Yingzi immediately rolled his eyes.
Fortunately, Lao Wai was pretty quick and managed to hold him up so he didn't fall down.
Okura Madam rolled up and stood up. The couple held her daughter on the left and right, pinching her for a while before she saw her eyes begin to move.
"Hurry up and explain, what happened to the boss?" Okura-niang was anxious.
At this time, Lao Wai's mood also calmed down: "The boss is fine. He asked the five Jia brothers to invite him for a drink."
"Going to Jia's house for a drink?" Okura Madam was very confused and her mind was a little confused.
Yingzi was completely awake and asked hurriedly: "Uncle, are you really going to drink? Isn't it because they deceived my eldest brother?"
"Absolutely not." Lao Wai said very firmly, leading the couple into the courtyard and showing them everything in the courtyard.
The two women were shocked.
Rubbing his eyes, he suspected that he was dreaming or went to the wrong door.
There are more than a dozen old hens in the yard, accompanied by six colorful big roosters. In order to prevent them from getting lost in a strange environment, thin hemp ropes are tied to their legs, so that they can walk nearby without running far.
Next to the brand-new large water tank, there are many lard jars, salt jars, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and various newly purchased dishes and pans.
The smashed wooden lattice window lattice disappeared and was replaced by a wooden framed glass window that could be opened and closed.
The grain storage system is also brand new.
When I opened the door of the pen, the beaten and bruised shell pig disappeared and turned into a fat pig that started to gain weight!
When I entered the house, I saw that the broken pot was gone and replaced by a new pot, and the smashed adobe cupboard was replaced by a wooden cupboard with gold powder pattern...
Okura Mother first thought of "The Story of the Conch Girl".
Yingzi thought of the text, "The Fisherman and the Goldfish".
Then, Okura-niang came to her senses and chased the man all over the yard and beat him.
If you don't say half of what you say, you will scare my mother-in-law!
The neighbor to the east raised his head from the wall to watch the fun, and said with a smile: "Ms. Okura, Okura almost beat Sun Shiwen to death just now. He said that as long as the brothers are here, no one is allowed to beat his uncle."
Obviously, Liang Jincang's words were a bit exaggerated.
He was only responsible for finding someone named Sun to fight back and regain some dignity for his stepfather. As for being chased and beaten by his mother, that was beyond his capabilities.
At this moment, he was happily attending the banquet.
After all, he has become the God of Wealth in the eyes of the five bears. The bear has just done something for him, so he still has to give him the honor of attending the banquet.
Moreover, Liang Jincang was greedy after hearing that the other party bought fried fish from cut pig heads. He was injured and needed some meat to make up for his injuries.
He happily ate fish and meat, and while eating, he wondered how he could secretly put the pig tail in his pocket and take it back for Yingzi to bite.
The food is delicious, but the appearance is sad.
Because the five bears were embellishing the discussion about Song Qiguo's plan to kill Liang Jincang, the purpose was to scare him and make him work in vain without giving him any money.
Their reason was that although Okura helped them inquire about grain prices, the five brothers were now protecting Okura's life, which was a fair exchange.
Liang Jincang actually didn't care whether he paid or not, because he knew that in a few days, the higher authorities would launch a concentrated crackdown on speculation. The bigger the business of the Jia brothers, the faster they would die.
But on the surface, he still had to pretend to be unacceptable, chewing heavily while hesitating: "We agreed that we would jointly sell food, so we have to give some share...
We are a big family, and I am a big laborer. If I don’t make money for a day out, I will starve to death..."
Seeing that Liang Jincang didn't accept such a fair condition, Jia Wu immediately changed his expression and gave the wine cup a hard drink:
"What's more important, life or money? If your life is gone, what's the use of money?"
Jia Dachong winked at his fifth brother, smiled comfortingly, and took out fifteen large unity cards and showed them to Liang Jincang.
He said that Song Qiguo increased his money again last night. In order to buy Liang Jincang's life, he paid a total of one hundred and fifty twice.
Liang Jincang was really frightened. He could no longer close his open mouth. He was holding a pig tail in his hand and was frozen there without knowing how to put it into his mouth.
Jia Dayi saw that the effect was good, and he showed a benevolent and righteous manner that would never force others to do anything difficult:
"Otherwise, let's do this. We can help your family. You and the builder only earn 80 cents per job. From now on, if you work with us, we will give you one yuan a day. This is more than the salary of one or two knives. How about it?
Of course, if you still feel that you are at a loss, then forget it, we each sell our own food, and whoever has the ability, you or Song Qiguo, can do it, and we will not interfere."
The effect of these words was quite good. Liang Jincang was so panicked that he went crazy with fright. He brushed the pig tail that was supposed to be sent to his mouth and stuffed it into his pocket.
He freed up both hands and grabbed Jia Da's hand: "Brother Jia, don't worry, you have to save me and protect me!"
The flesh on Jia Da's face formed a kind shape, and she patted Liang Jincang's hand:
"Don't worry, brother Okura, you can rest assured. As long as you are willing to help us, we will never let you suffer any loss.
Between you and Song Qiguo, we will definitely be on your side."
Liang Jincang nodded gratefully: "Yeah, yeah, I will leave my life to you from now on."
Originally, his script was that he would burst into tears of gratitude when he got to this point.
It's just that his eyes were sore but he didn't squeeze out a single tear, and the planned snot bubbles didn't work. This made him feel very ashamed. His professionalism in performance was really poor.
"It's done!" Jia Wu excitedly slapped Liang Jincang's thigh. Liang Jincang gritted his teeth in pain and almost threw off the bandage on his head.
All the Jia brothers were beaming.
At this time, a kid who was playing on the street with two tubes of yellow snot ran in and handed Jia Da a note.
"Who gave it to you?" Jia Da asked him.
The little kid chewed the fruit candy in his mouth and said loyally: "Song Qiguo told me, don't say he asked me to send it here."
Liang Jincang patted the kid on the head: "Genzhu is such a good boy. It's okay if you don't tell me. How many pieces of candy did Song Qiguo give you?"
"Three pieces." Genzhu raised two fingers.
Liang Jincang picked up a large piece of pork head meat with chopsticks and handed it to Genzhu's small black hand.
Genzhu grinned and made a "chirp" sound. It was like two bean worms had burrowed into his nostrils, and the yellow snot disappeared.
But as soon as they reached the door, the two bean bugs stuck out half of their yellow bodies again.
Song Qiguo has been around Jia's house for a long time.
He is going crazy and furious!
No Jia brothers do things like this, right?
Originally, the Jia brothers had little contact with Liang Jincang, but after two bribes of 50 yuan from him, the Jia brothers actually became good friends with Liang Jincang and became his thugs.
Chapter completed!
