Chapter 94: Borrowing Silver

But late at night, Blind Han was leaning on a cane and carefully searching for the road and walls. Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps in his ears. He was a little panicked: "Who?"

The man was also startled: "Ha! Why is this guy yelling in the middle of the night?"

"Are you a human or a ghost?"

The man replied: "Are you blind?"

Blind Han was angry: "Nonsense! I'm not blind so I can ask you what you are!"

Only then did the man realize: "You are not Blind Han from the west of the village, are you? I am Liu Yuanwai's errand boy, and no one is holding your hand in the middle of the night?"

Blind Han thought for a moment and then asked: "How is Liu Yuanwai's health these days? I feel deeply ashamed that I haven't visited you all this time."

The guy smiled and said, "Young Master, your health is in good shape, but you, Blind Man Han, do you have anything to ask of my master?"

The corners of Blind Han's mouth twitched. He was about to speak out but then took it back. He was a little afraid to speak, but he suddenly thought of his seriously ill mother. He gritted his teeth and took the risk!

"My mother is sick and needs fifty taels of silver for medicine. I heard that Mr. Liu is very charitable and gentle to others, so I would like to spare my face and borrow some..." Blind Han said intermittently.

The clerk was startled: "Oh! It's unbelievable that you need fifty taels for medicine for any disease. I think you are a blind man, and I feel pity for you. I will take you to the Yuanwai's house."

Blind Han was being held by him. Even so, he was still tentatively swinging his cane back and forth. This man's arms were extremely hard, not nearly as soft as his son's, and not as trustworthy as his son's arms.

"Be careful, we're here! There are stone steps in front!" The guy pulled it up forcefully, which made Blind Han feel extremely uncomfortable. "When you meet my family member, you have to speak softly, he likes to listen to good things.

, if I say a few more words, I might be able to lend you some money, right?"

Blind Han agreed repeatedly

, he knew in his heart that Liu Yuanwai was not a good person. He wasted no time on human life, bullied his neighbors, colluded with the government, and made loan sharks. These were all his "heroic deeds."

Even so, he had no choice. In the current situation, only Liu Yuanwai could come up with fifty taels of silver. As for how to repay it later, he had no idea, and he had no idea what kind of consequences this would bring to his family.

as a result of.

The waiter took him to see Liu Yuanwai. He didn't know what to do or where to bow. He was so embarrassed that he kept saying: "Liu Yuanwai...Have Liu Yuanwai eaten..."

Liu Yuanwai picked up the tea bowl, waved his hand and shouted: "Okay, okay, why are you talking about that nonsense? I still haven't eaten in the middle of the night? If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you fart, quickly!"

"Gudong!" Blind Han knelt on the ground and trembled his lips: "Please also ask Yuan Liu to save my mother's life. I will definitely be grateful for your kindness!"

This frightened Liu Yuanwai, and an eight-foot-tall man suddenly knelt down in front of him, making him a little at a loss: "You guy... you guy, get up and talk... what on earth is going on!"

"Please also ask Mr. Liu to lend me fifty taels of silver to provide for my mother's urgent need..."

Liu Yuanwai frowned: "What did you say? Fifty taels of silver? I mean, blind man Han, you don't really think that Liu's snowflakes and silver were blown by the wind, do you? Besides, you are a blind man who speaks and sings, how can you take

What will pay off the debt?”

"I can pledge all my land to you, as well as my house!" Blind Han burst into tears: "I will also pledge my agarwood erhu, which has been with me for many years, to you..."

Liu Yuanwai's eyes shone. He had been coveting this agarwood erhu for a long time, so he had to hesitate.

Blind Han heard no more movement, and hurriedly shouted: "If the members still refuse, I will kill you under the stone steps!" After that, he stood up.

"No, no, no, no!" Liu Yuanwai stood up in a hurry: "I'm just borrowing it from you, isn't it?

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Yes, but according to the rules, you have to leave a note."

Blind Han quickly agreed, but he didn't see what was specifically written on it. He hurriedly pressed his fingerprints, held the borrowed snowflake silver, and ran out happily. He fell down, but at this time he forgot everything.

Painful, I only had one thought in my mind - I can be saved!

After much effort, he finally returned home. Overjoyed, he quickly shouted: "Yu'er! Open the door!"

Mrs. Han ran over quickly, opened the door, and saw Blind Han whose face was covered with scars. She hugged him and sobbed: "I haven't been back for a long time. I thought you, the official..."

"Look, I'm back intact!" Blind Han replied with a smile.

"My face is already hurt..." Mrs. Han couldn't bear it and secretly shed a few tears. Seeing Blind Han's face full of joy, he asked, "What happy event is this, sir?"

Blind Han took out a bag of silver from his arms and threw it on the wooden table: "Look, what is this?"

Mrs. Han looked confused and gently pulled open the corner of the cloth. When she saw the silver, she was frightened and confused: "So much snowflake silver! Where did the official get this?"

Blind Han was about to say that he borrowed it from Yuan Wai Liu, but he couldn't say it. The house had been mortgaged, and if my mother knew about it, she would definitely not know how to take medicine, so she couldn't let any family members know.

"Madam, I'm going to bed first...Tomorrow I will take Jin'er to the city to get some medicine. It will probably take a day or two before I can come back." Blind Han swung his crutch and was about to walk aside in a daze. Mrs. Han sighed.

, had to step forward to help.

There is a crescent moon hanging in the sky, and the quiet moonlight is scattered in the world. The wild grass is rustling, but it seems to be showing off its charm. The peaceful village seems to be covered with a layer of silver gauze, cold and quiet.

The dark night is filled with sadness through the wind. These stars will eventually return to the sky, but they left too early, too early...
