After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 24 The best aunt comes to collect debts

Cuiniang fed Xibao goat milk and was washing diapers in the yard.

A strand of hair fell down, and she smoothed it with the back of her hand, unaware that she saw someone walking over.

The visitor was tall and fat, with a double chin that was rare for country people, and a mole on the right side of his face. She was Lu Qianjin's eldest sister-in-law and the aunt of several children of the Lin family.

"Aunt, why are you here?"

Cuiniang didn't have a good impression of this aunt. When her father passed away, her aunt came to her house and persuaded her to remarry and abandon their sisters. She also said that she would introduce her to a good family.

Grandma drove her aunt away.

My aunt cursed her, saying that she was treating her well-intentioned as a donkey. When she passed her, she stabbed her so hard with her nails that her forehead was broken.

Since then, she has been a little afraid of this aunt.

After Grandma passed away, her aunt came again, but she didn't come to care for them, but to plunder their belongings. All the clothes and jewelry that Grandma left behind were taken away by her aunt.

It has been three years since my aunt came to visit her. I don’t know why she came this time.

Cuiniang's heart tightened when she thought of those things in the house, fearing that she would be poisoned by her aunt again.

Cai Hehua glanced at her, as if returning home, he swaggered into the house, looking around.

But after scanning around, I didn't find anything valuable. There was only a shabby straw mat and a few broken stones in the house, which was extremely shabby.

"Where are your eldest sister and the others?" Although she disliked the broken stone, Cai Hehua still picked up a piece and sat down. She walked all the way. She was still out of breath.

Cui Niang was always worried, fearing that she would open the door curtain of the inner room and break in. When she saw her sitting down, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sister went to the fields, and brother went hunting in the mountains." Cuiniang told a little lie.

If he said that the eldest brother went fishing, it would definitely lead to a series of questions. Then he would not be able to hide the fact that he had a boat and fishing nets, and the money he had just saved might be lost.

Cai Hehua saw her standing far away from the door, as if her aunt was going to eat her, and said angrily: "My aunt came all the way here, and you didn't even give me a glass of water? My aunt Is this what my sister and brother-in-law taught you when he was still alive?"

Cuiniang went to the small thatched shed and brought her a glass of water in a bamboo cup.

Cai Hehua drank the water and ordered: "Go and call your eldest sister back. I have something to tell her."

How could Cui Niang be reassured that he would leave and leave her in the house?

When I was in a dilemma, a clear and hearty voice came from outside: "What a rare visitor. My aunt hasn't stepped into my door for three years. Why do you want to come back to me now?"

Lin Chunniang came in carrying two empty excrement buckets. She had washed the excrement buckets, but they still had a smell. Cai Hehua covered her nose in disgust.

The Lu family kills pigs and sells pork. The family also owns several acres of land, but it is rented out to others for farming. The family does not have to go to the fields.

As the daughter-in-law of the Lu family, Cai Hehua has not even been to the vegetable field a few times, let alone picking up manure to fertilize the fields.

I live the life of a young lady in the countryside.

She took out a handkerchief and covered her nose, "Chun Niang, a few years ago your mother went back to her parents' house and borrowed ten taels of silver. She promised to pay it back in two years, but she hasn't paid it back yet.

"My aunt is thinking about you brothers and sisters who have no father and mother, and your life is difficult, and I don't want to come to collect this debt. But your uncle is a troublemaker. The family business is getting worse and worse. There has been no income for several days. Your eldest cousin It’s time to get married again, and I can’t even collect the dowry, so I really have no choice!”

Cai Hehua played the emotional card and acted miserably for a long time.Lin Chunniang looked at her coldly, and waited until she had finished crying, and then said: "Auntie, I remember that my mother only borrowed eight taels of silver."

When my mother-in-law went back to her parents' home to borrow money, she and her mother went together. Grandpa originally refused to let her pay back the money.

But at that time, my aunt scolded the chickens in the yard for a long time, saying that the old roosters in the family were eating the chickens inside and out, and was saving all the food from the Lu family to feed other people's pullets.

It's terrible to scold.

Aniang said angrily that she would definitely pay back the money and would never take advantage of a penny from the Lu family.

Only then did the aunt calm down.

Lin Chunniang originally planned to pay off the debt after saving enough money, but her aunt came first.

Cai Hehua wiped the non-existent tears from the corner of her eyes, "Borrowing money without interest? How many years has it been? The original loan was eight taels, but now it only costs ten taels with interest? Ten taels is still a small amount. Well, if it were the loan sharks, I'm afraid they'd cost you a hundred and eighty taels!"

Lin Chunniang was silent, and Cui Niang came to her side and held her sleeve, worry rising in her heart.

Last night, their family was still happy about saving six taels of silver, but today they were burdened with a huge debt of ten taels of silver.

Cuiniang couldn't help but said: "Auntie, that's not how it is calculated. Even if interest is required, it won't be as much as two taels in three years, right?"

It was three years ago that grandma borrowed money. At that time, her father passed away and life at home was really difficult, so grandma had no choice but to go back to her parents' house to borrow money.

Cai Hehua's eyes bulged, "What do you, a little girl, know? I'm not better than you at settling accounts? I'm in charge of all the accounts at home and abroad."

Lin Chunniang: "Auntie, you have also seen that my family really has no money. How about you wait a little longer? When I save the money, I will pay it back as soon as possible."

What she told was the truth, but it fell into Cai Hehua's ears, but it became an excuse for not wanting to pay back the money.

But she wasn't angry. Instead, she said in a gentle tone: "If your family is really in trouble, it's okay not to repay the money. How about this? You adopt a younger brother and become my son, and the debt is forgotten. How about that?"

Lin Chunniang and Cui Niang were both shocked by these words.

"No." After reacting, Lin Chunniang flatly refused.

It is absolutely impossible to ask her to sell her brother to pay off the debt, even if she is killed.

Cai Hehua started to sing a sad drama again: "Oh, I'm so unhappy. After marrying into the Lu family for so many years, I only gave birth to two losers and failed to continue the incense of the Lu family. Chun Niang, just do it and give it to me." I have a son."

She threw herself in front of Lin Chunniang, held her hand and begged. The tears she shed this time seemed much more genuine.

"Whether it is a great fortune, a second happiness, or a third blessing, I promise, if any of them goes to the Lu family, I will treat him well and treat him as my own son."

Lin Chunniang felt a chill and pushed her away, "Auntie, I will pay back the ten taels of silver as soon as possible. Don't say this again. I will never agree."

When Cai Hehua saw that she was like this and the little girl still refused to agree, she felt resentful and stopped pretending.

"Lin Chunniang, let me tell you, if you don't pay the money today, your brother will have to leave with me. Otherwise, I have plenty of ways to deal with you."

This domineering look is her true face.

She, Cai Hehua, has an eldest brother who is a member of a gang. If she tells the eldest brother about this, he can just call a few people and take care of the Lin family.
