Chapter 414: The weasel enters the village!

Chapter 414 The weasel enters the village!

Wei Dajun's legs were broken, and they were of course distressed, but compared to their family breaks, this was the best result.

The village elders and people were willing to help them make decisions and help Wei Dajun correct his bad habits. They were only grateful and had no resentment.

The villagers surrounded them when they went out, especially the women, who spoke to comfort them one after another.

After everyone turned off the lights and went to sleep, the noisy night finally passed.

Originally, Li Laoer, Liu Biaotou and others thought that Zhang Jin from Xiaowangzhuang would have to wait for a few days even if he wanted to come to inquire about the news.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Jin didn't know whether it was because he was clear and confident, or because he was forced by the casino, but he actually found the village the next afternoon.

At the entrance of the village, Li Yong's house is building a courtyard, and people are coming and going in full swing.

Zhang Jin picked up a random guy and asked, "Brother, how do we get to Wei Dajun's house?"

The man was stunned for a moment, looking at Zhang Jin's deer-headed eyes, which didn't look like a good guy, he frowned and asked, "Where are you from? What do you want to do with Wei Dajun?"

Zhang Jin quickly smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry, I'm from Xiaowangzhuang, and we are a family."

Sure enough, when the man heard that he was from Xiaowangzhuang, he lost the defensive look on his face and said with a smile, "That is indeed a family! You go directly in, the last row of houses, the second house from the east is Wei Dajun's house ”

"Okay, big brother. I'll leave first then. I'll have a chance to drink later!"

Zhang Jin said hello and left, with a flash of disdain in his eyes.

They say how powerful the people in Suijintan are, but in fact they are just a bunch of mud-legged people, and they are too easy to deceive.

How did he know that as soon as he turned his head, the whole village would know that he, the weasel, had entered the village, and hundreds of pairs of eyes were staring at her.

It’s really hard to say who is easy to deceive!

Wei Dajun broke his leg. He was in so much pain last night that he couldn't sleep a wink. Now he drank medicine and ate.

But while the children at home were studying and the daughter-in-law went to work, he was left lying on the kang with a urinal next to him for company. Not to mention how miserable it was.

Seeing Zhang Jin walk in, he wanted to get up, but he groaned in pain and lay down again.

Zhang Jin quickly stepped forward to help him and asked in a low voice, "Brother Wei, what's wrong with you? Didn't you make an appointment to go to the city to pay back the money today?"

Wei Dajun's forehead was so painful that big beads of sweat were forming, and he cursed, "Don't mention it, it's really unlucky! The village paid wages last night, and my family got three taels of silver. I just want to go find you. I'll go to the city early today." .

“I didn’t expect to take a shortcut over the mountain, but I fell straight down. Fortunately, there were people patrolling the village, otherwise I would have had to lie in the mountain all night.”

Zhang Jin lifted the quilt and took a look. Wei Dajun's injured leg was swollen and there was still blood on the bandage.

This is really hurtful!

Zhang Jin secretly scolded him for being useless, but with an embarrassed look on his face, he said, "What should I do? If you don't pay back the money today, I'm afraid the casino will come to your house!"

"No, no!" Wei Dajun was frightened and quickly pulled his hand and begged, "Brother Zhang, please help me. You must beg for mercy on my behalf."

As he spoke, he took out a money bag from under the mattress.

"The wages I paid yesterday are all here. Brother Zhang will help me bring them to the casino. I will be given a two-month reprieve. The village chief said that more than 5,000 taels of fruit were sold on the mountain. Our family will be able to get at least 100 taels. By then I must pay off all my gambling debts.”

Zhang Jin's eyes lit up, he tossed his money bag, and said, "You also know that the casino is worried about the sluggish business. When you recover from your injury, you can bring a few more customers there. Maybe the person in charge will be happy and bring you some All your gambling debts are forgiven.”

Wei Dajun seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and responded quickly, "Okay, okay, I'm healed, and the village has also given out money. When the time comes, I will take a few more people with me. My family is the poorest, and they are all richer than my family!"

Zhang Jin became more and more satisfied after hearing this. He collected the money bag and said perfunctorily, "Okay, then you can recover well. I will go to the casino to beg you for mercy. I will come to see you in a few days." "Okay, okay!" Wei Dajun He breathed a sigh of relief and kept saying thanks.

Zhang Jin waved his hand and walked away.

Out of the gate of the Wei family, he spat hard and cursed in a low voice, "Useless stuff."

After cursing, he looked up at the neat and tidy new village, the mountains, riverbanks, and hot spring valleys in the distance. His eyes were full of greed and jealousy...

At the entrance of the village, people were busy building houses while watching Zhang enter and exit the village.

Liu Yong was going to follow immediately. Li Yong was worried, so he told Huiniang and the village chief a few words, and quickly caught up with Liu. They were also companions...

In the evening, the people who were building the house had dinner before they came back.

Li Laoer, the village chief and others quickly asked, and Li Yong said, "This Zhang Jin went directly to the gambling shop in the city and talked to a steward for a long time. We couldn't come forward and couldn't hear what was said.

"But I went to the Hou Mansion and borrowed two familiar veterans. They will help us keep an eye on the casino steward. If there is someone behind him, they will definitely be able to catch him."

Liu Biaotou nodded and said, "For the time being, Zhang Jin is the smuggler of the casino, responsible for attracting gamblers from outside."

"Then let's do this for now. We are stable ourselves. It's not easy for outsiders to plot." Li Laoer comforted everyone.

Everyone responded, "Yes, no matter what anyone's plan is, everyone has to cover their own money bags, and others dare to rob it!"

At this point, a small storm has been suppressed.

Except for Wei Dajun, who was in pain every day and felt so regretful that his intestines were bruised, the rest of the villagers continued to live their lives as usual.

Soon, it was time for Jia Huan to make an appointment.

The Li family closed the gate of the courtyard and asked Uncle Zhao and others to help take care of it. Then, Li Zhensheng, Li Laoer, and the village chief took a car to the small town of Luo'an.

The village chief didn't want to go at first. After all, he was born as a farmer and was naturally more in awe of scholars and academies, so he felt a little nervous.

Li Laoer reassured the old man, "Uncle, I have even met the emperor. Are you still afraid of what these teachers will do? We are getting married, not asking for help! Besides, uncle is the owner of Broken Gold Beach, a treasure land blessed with feng shui. People, just hold your head high, we won’t be afraid of whoever you face!”

The old man drank a big bowl of chicken soup, and the effect was better than chicken blood.

The old man put on his best clothes, polished his pipe and pot, and got into the carriage with great pride...

Over in the small town of Luo'an, in the courtyard of the Li family, the betrothal gifts have been prepared and neatly packed.

In addition to the two hundred manuscripts originally promised to Mr. Peng, there are also two sets of headgear, one set of red gold and one set of pearls. In addition, there are sixteen pieces of silk and satin of various colors, a pair of rouge and gouache boxes, a pair of dragon and phoenix candles, four-color candies, four-color nuts, four cans of tea, and four jars of fine wine.

The most important thing is that the matchmaker presents a red envelope with two small gold ingots inside.

The bride price was a box containing ten 20 taels of gold, which was converted into 200 taels of silver.

These are all worth about five hundred taels of silver.

Zhao Yuru took care of it when it was time to arrange it, but she didn’t need to pay even a tael of money.

This is the rule set by the father-in-law for every descendant of the Li family to marry a daughter-in-law.
