Across the Market

Chapter 9

Among the three men, a short and fat man standing in the middle snorted and said with a smile: "I asked your father to help me. That's because I look up to him and treat him as my brother-in-law. This batch of mine is precious. , if I didn't think highly of him, how could I agree to let him touch him."

Zhu Fu yelled "Ouch" and said: "Your old man is precious, and your old batch of goods are also precious, don't treat us as relatives, our family can't afford it." After finishing speaking, he saw the uncle with a proud face She didn't want to talk nonsense with this group of people anymore, and said directly, "Uncle, I've said my ugly words first, if you don't give me the money today, don't blame my niece for being rude. If you don’t pay the wages and sue you in the court, you will always lose face as a person who does big things Second, no one knows how the county lord will judge."

Zhu Fu didn't speak too thoroughly, but the meaning has been expressed very clearly. If you don't give me the money, I will report to the government. When the government finds out that you are selling illegal salt, you will pay the consequences.

Zhang Facai knew better than anyone what this batch of goods was, so he naturally didn't want to involve the government.

He suddenly changed his attitude, a smile appeared on his fat face, he rubbed his hands together and said with a laugh: "How can outsiders know about this kind of family affairs? It's not worth it to hurt our relationship for this little money." Dang. Come, come, sister Fu, sister Nuan, uncle bought a lot of cakes that your little ones love, come in and eat some."

Zhu Fu refused: "No, you always buy food for your cousins ​​yourself, sister Nuan and I don't dare to eat it." After speaking, he stretched out his hand and asked for money, "We don't want too much, my father and brother will help you After a night of work, each person is five taels, and you can give ten taels."

"Ten taels?" Wei Xue's flesh ached when she heard it, as if the money belonged to her, she jumped up and pointed at Zhu Fu and scolded, "You little whore, how dare you ask us for ten taels of silver? Pooh! !Your father has no ability to support his wife and children, and dares to attack us. Let me tell you, no, not a penny!"

"No, no, no cakes for you." The one who spoke was Wei Xiangbao, Uncle Zhu Fu's daughter.

Wei Xiangbao was about the same size as Zhu Fu, chubby, with fat everywhere, and her face was deformed by the flesh. She glared at Zhu Fu viciously, as if she wanted to eat her.

"If you dare to grab my food, I will dare to push you into the water and freeze you to death." Wei Xiangbao just finished speaking when Wei Geshi covered his mouth.

Zhu Fu thought to himself, maybe the real owner of this body was pushed into the water by Wei Xiangbao and drowned, so write this account down first and report it later.

Zhu Fu glanced at Zhang Facai, who was sweating profusely, and said with a smile: "Uncle, go and get the silver, I will count dozens, and if you still don't see the silver after counting, I don't want the money, and I will let the county Grandpa, give me justice." After speaking, he said to Sister Nuan, "Sister Nuan, can you count?"

Sister Nuan is very obedient and always listens to the second sister. She nodded and said, "I can count, second sister, let me count for you. One, two..."

"Don't, don't, don't..." Zhang Facai hurriedly interrupted, "Don't count, isn't it just ten taels of silver? This is what it should be. It's what my sister-in-law and my nephew deserve." Big hand, "An extra five taels, I'll give you an extra five taels for the sake of the two of you little sisters' hard-working trip in the cold, but in the future, everyone must live in harmony. It's so embarrassing to see an official."

Zhu Fu asked his sister: "Sister Nuan, shall we still count?"

Sister Nuan smiled happily: "The uncle gave the money, I won't count it."

Zhang Facai raised his sleeve and wiped the big beads of sweat on his forehead, and with shaking hands, he took out two silver ingots from the money bag tied around his waist, one larger and one smaller.

Wei Xueshi saw the white money and wanted to grab it, but Zhang Facai blocked it.

"Oh, I don't want to live anymore." Seeing the white money in the hands of the two little losers, Wei Xue sat down on the ground and started rolling around, "Little whore, you dare to come to ask for money!" , I can’t live this day, and I can’t live anymore.”

Zhu Fu put the money into his bosom, and happily said to Wei Xue: "Grandma, don't swear at others in the future. Without you, an old whore, where would I be a little whore? Also, don't you despise my family?" Is the one or two taels of silver given every month too small? Then we won’t even give one or two taels of silver every month, so you can rest in peace.”

Seeing that the purpose of this trip has been achieved, Zhu Fu didn't want to stay here for a moment longer, and ran away holding Sister Nuan, leaving Wei Xue rolling on the ground and yelling, one by one died.

Aunt Wei saw that her husband was so angry with his mother, she gave Zhang Facai a look, and snorted, "What are you afraid of the two little brats? See the official as soon as you see the official, so you may not be able to award us money. Besides, but It’s just two coolies, we can’t find it at this price anywhere, but you are so kind, you actually gave it 15 taels.”

"You stinky bitch know what a fart!" He scolded Aunt Wei and glared at Aunt Wei fiercely, "I earned the money, and I can spend it as I like, and it's not your turn." A bitch is talking nonsense here."

Although it was Mrs. Wei who scolded, but even Mrs. Wei Xue was scolded. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Mrs. Wei quickly got up and didn't dare to scold anyone anymore.

Seeing that Zhang Facai dared to turn a corner and scold her mother, Wei Erniang wanted to go forward to argue, but was stopped by Shi Awang.Shi Awang winked at his mother-in-law, Wei Erniang didn't go forward to argue, but scolded Zhu Fu angrily, "You really are an uneducated girl, she dares to blackmail people, after all, she is a countryman, she doesn't even have the courtesy No."

The group of people here were all so angry that they were dying, but the Zhu Fu sisters over there were very happy. Zhu Fu ran in front with small steps, and Sister Nuan chased behind with a smile.

"Second Sister, we have money. Let's buy meat. I want to eat a lot of meat." Sister Nuan chased after Second Sister's ass, her two short legs were running fast, and she was afraid that she would not be able to catch up if she ran too slowly. Second sister, "Brother Shou loves chicken, second sister, let's buy another chicken for Shou."

Zhu Fu stopped, hugged Sister Nuan into his arms, and kissed her chubby face fiercely.

"Sister Nuan, let's save ten taels for my brother to marry a wife, okay? Let's go buy a lot of things with the remaining five taels of silver." She said while holding her sister's little meaty hand, "I want to buy meat To eat for sister Nuan, to buy stewed chicken for brother Shou, to buy new clothes for our family of seven to wear during the New Year, to buy a lot of pastries for sister Nuan, to buy jewelry for my mother and elder sister... ..."
