After Li Tannian finished speaking, Huang became anxious.
"Why can't you pay it back? I don't want to sell it to Mr. Lu's family, how can you force me to sell it?"
"That's right, I won't sell it anymore, I'll give you the money back, and you give me back the lamb!" Chibienhao agreed.
It turned out that not only was Li Tannian's goat kid not dead, but he was still able to eat and sleep. The news spread throughout the village. After hearing this, Mr. Huang and Shi Buxin were unhappy.
As soon as the couple became unhappy, they ran to Lu's house.
Unexpectedly, Li Tannian was not around and Lu Zhi was not easy to get along with, so the couple came directly to the entrance of the village to block people.
Li Tannian was not surprised at all by this. She asked him to write a paper appointment that day in order to prevent this situation.
"I've already made a paper agreement with me if I haven't eaten enough, so I can't pay it back." Li Tannian curled his lips and made his words clear again.
Mrs. Huang never thought about it. She made a paper appointment with someone when she didn't have enough to eat. She gritted her teeth in anger and said, "That doesn't count. I have the final say in our family. If a foreigner doesn't have enough to eat, what qualifications does a foreigner have to write a paper promise?"
Please give me back my lamb as soon as possible."
"Oh, no, we are all illiterate rural people, paper appointments are useless in our village!" Liu Jinhua covered her lips and sneered.
Ge's eyes lit up, could it really be useless?
Over the past few days, she felt panicked every time she thought that she had written an appointment with Li Tannian.
"Yes, yes, country people don't recognize paper promises." Geshi mustered up his courage and agreed.
"It's not you who has the final say whether you admit it or not." Li Tannian looked at Ge and said meaningfully, then got out of the oxcart with Erbao and Sanya, "Let's go, let's go find the old patriarch!"
Seeing this, the people on the bullock cart followed and watched the excitement.
Ge Shi couldn't help but clenched her clothes tightly and gritted her teeth, but she still followed.
"Li Tannian!" Mr. Huang knew that the old patriarch's family had a good relationship with Li Tannian, and now, he didn't even want to see the old patriarch.
She stretched out her hand to pull Li Tannian, but Li Tannian grabbed her wrist with her backhand, and the pain immediately spread.
"Members of the Lu family, why are you doing this?" Bu Ni rushed forward aggressively, and heard the voice of Patriarch Lu from outside the crowd, "Bo Ni, what are you two doing?"
As soon as Mr. Huang and Mr. Xianfeng heard the voice of Patriarch Lu, their arrogance suddenly dropped, and they immediately gave in.
"Unsatisfied uncle, let my mother give back his sheep!" At this time, Sanya said angrily.
When Zhao Susu heard this, she almost laughed angrily: "What, you want to pay him back? Sister Nian asked your family to write a paper agreement, and it's written in black and white, so why should you pay it back!"
"It's not me who wrote it because I didn't have enough to eat." Huang was a little unsure.
"Everyone writes the same thing!" Patriarch Lu was extremely annoyed. "I personally helped write the agreement, and I signed it even though I didn't have enough to eat. We Lujiacun people have absolutely no reason to go back on our words!"
Mrs. Huang glared at Nuanfeng, who lowered his head and did not dare to look at her.
How did he know that the lamb would survive? When he went back to tell Mrs. Huang about it that day, he didn't see her like this!
"If you're not full, let me ask you, do you want some sheep?"
Patriarch Lu's voice of inquiry came again, how dare you ask for food if you don't have enough to eat?
Patriarch Lu has always put harsh words before him. If he dares to ask for it again, Patriarch Lu might kick him out of Lujia Village. He is just a door-to-door son-in-law, so he doesn't dare to be harsh.
"No." After being bored for a while, he said not feeling full.
"You useless thing!" Mr. Huang didn't give him any face in front of everyone, and just pinched his ears because he couldn't eat enough.
Everyone watched and murmured to one another, and there was even loud laughter from the crowd.
Patriarch Lu didn't give the Huang family any face, so he gave them a severe scolding and reminded them of the contents of the paper agreement before letting everyone disperse.
Ge Shi looked at Li Tannian, thinking about the paper agreement that Brother Yan had written with her, and felt very uneasy. She was always afraid that one day she would take out the paper agreement in front of the whole village.
"I said what you said didn't count, but you didn't believe it." At this time, Li Tannian looked at her and curled his lips.
Ge Shi panicked and ran away. Liu Jinhua saw this and hurriedly chased after her: "Scholar lady, why are you in such a hurry? Just wait for me!"
Li Tannian sneered and was about to take the two children back in the car when Zhao Susu stopped him.
"I made soy milk steamed buns, do you want to come to my house to eat some?" After saying that, he didn't give her a chance to refuse, and directly pulled her into her courtyard.
At this time, Lu Cheng, who was thin and black, was doing carpentry work in the yard. When someone came over, he greeted Li Tannian warmly.
Erbao and Sanya also called "uncle" sweetly and waxily.
"Be good!" Zhao Cheng looked at Sanya. The more he looked at her, the more he liked her. He said to Zhao Susu, "My dear, please make a bowl of sugar water for the two children."
Zhao Susu glanced at him sideways: "I know, do you still need to remind me?"
After saying this, he was about to pull Li Tannian and his wife back to the kitchen. At this moment, Li Tannian discovered that Lu Cheng had actually thrown a lot of locust wood lumps.
It's not all lumps, because there are many larger ones on the ground.
"Brother Cheng, you don't want these?" She thought of toys such as modern water guns and asked subconsciously.
Lu Cheng nodded, and Li Tannian's eyes lit up, and he said again: "Then can you help me make something small?"
"Of course you can!" Lu Cheng agreed without saying a word. Li Tannian hurriedly asked Zhao Susu for paper and pen to draw a simple drawing for Lu Cheng.
On the other side, Huang and Bu Xian did not get any favors. Instead, they were scolded by the old patriarch. Neither of them looked very good.
On the way back, Mr. Huang severely scolded him for not having enough to eat. He only blamed him for being so mysterious that he actually signed a paper contract with someone.
It was hard to have enough to eat, but he never expected that the lamb was actually saved by Li Tannian!
"Our Wanshou family is not young anymore. We are just waiting to save money to give her a wife. No matter how big our family is, it cannot withstand your defeat!"
Wanshou is the son of Mr. Huang and his late husband. He is a well-known miscreant in the village. He doesn't do anything serious on weekdays, he just eats and drinks.
He didn't care about the cheap son because he didn't have enough to eat, but he still patiently persuaded him: "You'd better talk about Wanshou. It's not a problem for him to wander around the village all day long."
"Wanshou is so good, why are you pulling on him?" Mr. Huang glared angrily.
Are you feeling satisfied? I don’t know where to go for a drink today!
In fact, Wanshou was looking out for others at the door of his house at this time.
Seeing that Mr. Huang didn't go back, he leisurely returned to the courtyard, took a sip of wine, peeled off a peanut shell, and threw it into his mouth.
At this moment, a woman's low sobbing and a man's rough breathing suddenly came from the window frame of his dilapidated thatched house.
Wanshou suddenly felt that the soju in front of him no longer smelled good.
He has lived for nearly twenty years and has never even touched a woman's hand. At this moment, he is really jealous of his good brother.
With his eyebrows moving, he hurried up and as soon as he got to the window frame to see the fighting situation in the house, the door was opened from the inside, and then, a sobbing little girl ran out of the house!
The little girl had tender skin and flesh. Wanshou felt itchy in his heart when he saw it. He wanted to take advantage of it by touching her, but the little girl actually ran away!
"No, Lao Wu, why does this woman listen to you so much?" He touched his chin and looked at the man who came out of his room with some envy.
The man was probably in his early twenties, wearing gray linen clothes and a look of contentment on his face.
"Want to know?" He sat down at the table proudly and took a big sip of soju.
Wanshou nodded repeatedly, and Huang Laowu hooked his fingers at him. Wanshou took the initiative to put his ear to him, and the two of them whispered for a while. Wanshou was so surprised!
"This, this is directly forcing people, can people be willing to do it?"
Huang Laowu narrowed his eyes and smiled: "You have to be willing if you want to, and you have to be willing if you don't want to. There is no woman in this world that I, Huang Laowu, can't deal with."
As soon as the sound fell, Huang and Buhanshi came back one after another.
Huang was unhappy and was still complaining about not having enough to eat. When Huang Laowu saw this, he narrowed his eyes and asked: "Auntie, is that just a woman's family? You are so anxious. Ask the village chief to confirm this kind of thing."
If it doesn’t work, then you have to step forward yourself!”
