Chapter 68 Give birth to a son

"Just now, a lot of police officers took several people to the county government office. I also went to watch the excitement. I heard from people around me that the person who gambled with them before was a liar and tricked them into gambling in an irregular place. , at first everyone made money, and they couldn't stop. Later, the man said that the government was cracking down on this, and he tricked them into gambling on a hillside outside the city.

They were not prepared, so they followed that person to gamble. They were very lucky. Everyone else lost, but they were the only ones who kept winning. One of them wanted to stop, but Chen Lizhong said that he only won this much, at least. They wanted to win a house and have enough money to go back and become city dwellers in the future, so they continued to gamble.

But not long after, all the money was lost. They all ran home to get all the money, and left the city in one trip, until they lost all their money, and then borrowed usury money to gamble, and finally lost everything. Several people wanted to cause trouble, but those people brought thugs. Seeing that they were about to fight, they took out sticks, knocked several people unconscious, then threw them to the next county and ran away.

Several of them had just returned from begging for food in the past few days. I saw that not a single piece of clothes on Chen Lizhong's body was good. The same was true for the others. However, those people had long since disappeared without a trace, and the county government could only Report it to the police, but I don’t know when and how long it will take to find those people. "

Taozi shook his head, thinking of what happened to several people, he couldn't help but feel glad that it wasn't them who happened to them.

"Being greedy for money harms people. It's better to be down-to-earth when making money. Let's see what we should do now. I wonder if their family will have a long memory this time." No matter how sad the old Chen family is now, in the eyes of others, It's just a shame.

However, Chen Xique's pain after learning all this became even more real, because the two ladies were guarding them against getting the upper hand, so even if they worked here for several months, at most they would be taken advantage of by the master. It would be really hard to be a wife. There is still a long way to go.

Now that something happened to her brother again, Mrs. Du came to her and wanted her to give her money to help the family tide over the difficulties.

At present, it is not only the money that has been defrauded, but also the usury money borrowed by Chen Lizhong, which adds up to more than 100 taels. These days, because of Chen Lizhong's gambling, they spend three days fishing in business. Two days of posting on the Internet.

"Magpie, you are enjoying the hot food here, but you can't forget us. Now that your family is in trouble, you should take out all your money. When your family gets better, my mother will return it to you." Mrs. Du knew that she Yue thought she had a place to live here, but rarely went back.

"Mom, I don't have much money on me. I spent all my money on jewelry. If I don't dress up better, how can I attract the attention of the county magistrate?" Chen Xique looked impatient.

"You damn girl, don't even think about it. If you really want to be the wife of the county magistrate, can you do it without the support of your natal family? Your two brothers can support you. Those two are from outside and don't have the support of your natal family." Support, you won’t be able to manipulate me in the future. Besides, you are younger than them. Is it possible that the county magistrate will like them instead of you?”

Du Shi persuaded her with a calculating face, wanting to get money from her.

"But I only have one tael of silver now, and my eldest brother owes more than 100 taels. What to do with the remaining silver? I have to keep up my face, and I can't dress simply. How can I attract the attention of the county magistrate? "

"Don't worry, as long as you take out part of it first, we will figure out a way for the rest. This girl Xiyue is restless even when she comes to the city. Your father and I will marry her off, and we will treat her as our parents. I pity her."

"Mom, have you chosen this family? Who can afford such a large amount of money as a gift?" Although Chen Xique felt a little pity for this sister, when her family faced changes, she also hoped that she would not be the one to be sacrificed. "There is a landowner's family outside the city that is in need of a man who can give birth to a son. They say that as long as he gives birth to a son, he can be his wife in the future." After Mrs. Du said something vaguely, she took the two taels of silver given by Chen Xique. gone.

Chen Xique didn't say anything further. He had already made up his mind that day to attract the attention of the county magistrate as soon as possible, otherwise he would end up like his sister.

Xichun and the others continued to sell chili peppers, but this day the village chief brought an unusual news.

"Mr. Chen is going to marry a girl. Have you heard any news in the city? This is all evil." The village chief sighed, not knowing what happened to their family.

"Village Chief, didn't their family just get deceived? Why did they marry a girl all of a sudden? Could it be that they wanted to use the dowry to pay off their debts?" Aunt Zhang and the others found it incredible. It must have only been three days.

"We were deceived. We didn't hear any news. Yesterday, Mr. Chen, Mr. Du and his two sons returned to the village. I saw that they were wearing quite good clothes. They didn't look like they were deceived. They went around the village saying happy things. Yue is getting married, so let’s go have a drink the day after tomorrow.”

After Taozi told him what happened that day again, everyone continued to ask him why he said sin.

"This old Chen family is getting more and more outrageous. I wonder how you got married to Landlord Yang's family. Do you know how old Landlord Yang is this year? He's fifty!"

"Fifty? Isn't his son already in his twenties or thirties? I remember that Chen Xiyue was only fourteen years old. She is two years younger than Xi Chun, right?" Aunt Zhang did the math and found that the difference is almost ten years. , and Chen Xiyue is still young and is too anxious for money.

"Well, instead of marrying Landlord Yang's son, he doesn't have a son now, but to be Landlord Yang's tenth concubine. I heard that Landlord Yang's family only has one girl, and he has taken so many concubines, but none of them have given birth. One, oh, what a sinner!"

"What, marrying someone who is more than 30 years older than her as a concubine?" Girls under fifteen must be married off, and she once again hated the Chen family.

"This, this is so disrespectful. If your own daughter can be treated like this, the old Chen family is really jealous." Everyone showed expressions of disbelief.

"Who says it's not? They still think it's something they're proud of. Thinking about it, I feel like this family is really not human. However, it's also someone else's family matter. We don't have the power to take care of it. We just pity the girl."

"Village Chief, I don't think Chen Xiyue is a good person. I saw her and her brothers bullying Sister Xichun before. She wanted to be betrayed by her parents before, and she still blamed Sister Xichun." Taozi's words made everyone reply. In reality, this is really not a family. If they don't enter the same family, come on, they don't want to have any contact with this kind of family anymore, and they don't bother to go.
