Chapter 193:

Old Lady Bai was dizzy, she felt like she could see stars. The 20 silver coins were robbed. The 20 silver coins were robbed, was the only thing kept repeating inside her head. She could no longer hear anything else.

When Bai Erzhu saw his aging mother like that, he hurriedly shouted: “Niang, don’t worry. There are still 10 silver coins left.”

Old Lady Bai’s eyes brightly shined: “What did you say?”

Bai Erzhu explained: “Niang, the jade pendant was sold for 20 silver coins. Dage, let me carry the other 10 silver coins. The robbers had only taken away the 10 silver coins on him. At that time, I run away, naturally, the 10 silver coins with me were saved.”

The old lady’s heart suddenly calmed down when she heard there were still 10 silver coins left. Fortunately, there were still 10!

Bai Dazhu quickly took out 10 silver coins and handed them to the old lady.

Old Lady Bai caught the silver coins tightly with her own two hands. She was afraid that the silver coins will grow legs and run away.

However, although she now has the silver coins in her hands, she was still sad. Those were 10 silver coins. She saved money for 10 years, but her savings didn’t even reach 10 silver coins. She felt like someone was cutting her heart with a knife into pieces.

Mrs. Liu was distressed because her husband was beaten like this. But what made her more distressed, was the fact that the 10 silver coins were robbed. In anger, she stood straight in the courtyard and yelled at him. She cursed at least 18th generations of their ancestors. But not only that, because she dragged Bai Dazhu inside the house.

Bai Dazhu pushed Mrs. Liu, who was acting crazy: “What are you doing?”

Mrs. Liu’s red eyes: “Husband, are you confused? You have been beaten like this, and you have been robbed of 10 silver coins. We have to hurry to report to the government officials. Maybe by then, we can catch those two robbers, and they will return our money?”

Bai Dazhu stared at his wife, and said with a bad tone: “This stupid woman, who do you think you are? In the middle of the night, you want to report I’ve been robbed. I don’t know those people, I didn’t see their face, but you want the government officials to search for them? Do you think that’s possible?”

Mrs. Zhang opened her mouth and said: “Last year, Uncle Zhong’s son was also robbed. Not only he was robbed but was also killed. The government officials just asked about the situation and then give up. They didn’t send any troops to look for the robbers.”

Mrs. Liu stomped her feet: “What should we do? Just let it go?”

Bai Dazhu sighed: “If not, what else can we do? At least, those two didn’t kill me. If they did, what will you do?” At that time, he didn’t think of it. But now, after thinking about it, if those two pulled out a knife, will he still survive?

Bai Erzhuo said: “Sister-in-law, those robbers escaped, if we go out later we have to be careful.”

Old Lady Bai was not listening at all to what they were saying. She was constantly calculating how she will spend the money inside her heart. After she gives the 6 silver coins to Doctor Lu, there are still 4 silver coins left. She doesn’t know the current price of rice now. And now, there were only 2 acres of paddy land they can harvest. How are they going to survive during winter? How is she going to pay Bai Xiaofeng’s tuition fee next year?

Not to mention, their family haven’t eaten the whole day. She was so hungry to the point that her limbs felt weak. The most important thing right now is to solve these immediate difficulties and eat something.
