Seventy-year-old book: The villain Zaizai’s best mother

Third Sister Gu suspected that her eldest sister had been deceived, and some matchmakers were trying to get more money by playing dirty tricks.

Sister Gu immediately became a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say, "Well, this is what you want to be rich and noble. If you are handsome, you will be given a certain amount of betrothal gift. The 20 yuan betrothal gift also has to be given to the person who prepares bedding and clothes. After all, it's Fifty." She was afraid of what the third sister would say, so she hurriedly said: "Don't worry, third sister, I can repay you the money next year, and our pigs will be sold next year. There is not enough scale this year."

But Third Sister Gu felt something was wrong, "Sister, your pig is from last year, right? It has been raised for nearly two years, why is it still not weighed enough?"

The commune pig station only accepts pigs weighing more than 120 kilograms. If the pigs weigh less than 120 kilograms, they will be rejected because they are too small. Generally speaking, if a piglet is raised for a year and usually fed with grain bran, dried melons, wild vegetables, etc., it can weigh [-] kilograms even if there is no food.

If the scale is not enough, it means that nothing is fed, and the piglets are starved to the point of not growing any meat.

Sister Gu's family raised this pig last year. It was supposed to be sold in the spring and summer of this year, but it wasn't sold by the end of the year?

Is this because the little meat on the pig was starved again or something?

This is far from the truth.

As expected, Sister Gu looked ashamed and embarrassed. She was also a face-conscious person and had always insisted that family scandals should not be made public. Now that the third sister exposed her like this, she couldn't bear it.

If Sanjie Gu found something wrong in the past, she would definitely go straight to the point, regardless of whether the other party was concerned about his face or not. But now that she has been with Xia Mingshuang for a long time, she has naturally learned some things that need to be paid attention to when interacting with others, and her emotional intelligence has improved.

She said with concern: "Sister, we have been close since childhood. Are you afraid that I will know something happens? If we sisters can't help each other when we have problems, then who can we count on?"

Sister Gu immediately became moved and whispered: "Just, that's it..."

Listening to her hesitation, Sanjie Gu suddenly had an idea flash in her mind, "Sister, did my brother-in-law do something?"

If something happens to her parents-in-law or nephew, the eldest sister will not hide it. Even if she has something to do, she will not hide it. Then it is definitely her brother-in-law who is embarrassed to say anything.

Sister Gu's face became more and more embarrassed, "Just, it's nothing, just that..."

Third Sister Gu was anxious, "You should tell me!"

Sister Gu: "He, the control in the countryside has been loose in the past two years. When he has nothing to do with others, he plays two cards." After saying this, Sister Gu felt as if she had been cramped. There was sweat on her forehead and her whole body was weak. It's so shameful to be powerless.

Third Sister Gu was very angry, "He's gambling! What kind of family conditions do he dare to gamble? This son is waiting for money to marry a wife. His wife hasn't made clothes for many years and is patched up. How can he be embarrassed to gamble?" Why is it so big?”

Sister Gu's expression changed, and she hurriedly signaled to her, "Keep your voice down, keep your voice down, don't let eldest brother and the others hear."

Third Sister Gu hated her eldest sister for being so afraid of things, and even helped her brother-in-law hide it, "They are all my younger brothers and sisters, so what is there to be afraid of? Our eldest brother and younger siblings are not the kind of people who just watch the fun and don't help."

That kind of thing refers to Gu Yanni's kind. Not only does she not help her sister when something happens at home, but she makes sarcastic remarks and wishes you would get even more angry.

Sister Gu whispered: "Third sister, don't ask too much. Just lend me 50 yuan to help him cope with the situation so that the family can have a stable year. I will pay you back if I sell the pig next year."

Third Sister Gu: "Sister, if you ask for money, I will definitely give it to you, but if you just hide his shame like this, he won't change. If he continues to gamble..."

"No, no." Sister Gu quickly denied, "He said he would definitely change and he would not do it again. If he does it again, he would have no face."

Third Sister Gu didn't believe it. People said that once this person starts gambling, he can't stop. When he wins, he feels lucky and wants to continue winning. When he loses, he feels that the next gamble will definitely turn the tables. If he doesn't lose, he will go bankrupt. Stopped.

In the past, those men who gambled and lost their family money, fields, houses, and even wives and daughters to others. Which one has changed?

What kind of society is this? This man wants a woman to cover his money when he gambles?

He gambled and asked his wife to borrow money from everywhere? Does he have a face?

Sister Gu didn't want Third Sister to take too much care, and was afraid that it would be embarrassing if the news spread, so she asked her to get the money quickly.

Third Sister Gu didn't want to take the money anymore. The money would go down the drain. She couldn't let her eldest sister be tormented by her brother-in-law like this. It is said that the pigs will be sold next year. Who knows whether the money from the pig sales will be used by men to gamble?

She said: "Then what do your aunt, uncle, Fugui and others say?"

Sister Gu was a little impatient: "My parents-in-law just cried and scolded him. They are still confused at their age, but they can't just ignore him, right?"

Third Sister Gu: "What do they care about? They force you to borrow money. Why don't they call in their own relatives to borrow money?"

Sister Gu: "Then you and the eldest brother have money, and no one else has the same money." After saying that, she felt that her tone was not good, "Third sister, I am angry and anxious, you, don't blame me. He said first He owes twenty, and the result is interest and so on. It’s only thirty, and then it’s one hundred. My family has collected fifty, but there’s still fifty left. If I don’t save him, they’ll chop off his fingers. What do you think? If a good person loses his fingers, then..."

She began to cry as she spoke.

Xia Mingshuang couldn't listen anymore. She went into the room and said to Sister Gu, "Sister, this matter can't be settled with money. I have a better way."

Faced with this bottomless pit of greed, no matter how much money is spent, it cannot be settled, because gamblers will not give up and will only owe more and more.

If we want to completely solve this problem, we have to lift the table so that the gamblers are forced to get off the table. Those who are gambling will no longer dare to gamble, and those who participate in gambling will no longer dare to join in the fun.

This problem can only be solved by treating the root cause.

Sister Gu was a little doubtful, "Mingshuang, what can you do?"

If someone forces you to the door and chops off your hands if you don’t give them money, then you can only give them money.

Xia Mingshuang: "It's simple. I called the county public security bureau and told them that some people gathered to gamble, disrupted the socialist agricultural production of the production team, undermined the security and peace of the production team, and tried to force the members to gamble and usury. Chopping off hands, this is clearly the behavior of local tyrants and landlords, the behavior of bandits, this is a typical bad element, why don’t we arrest them and send them to labor camps to celebrate the New Year?”

Gambling must be prohibited at all times, especially when it affects social order.

The eldest brother-in-law was lured into gambling, and most of his money these days was just a few cents. It was not a big deal to owe 20 yuan, but the other party actually asked him to pay back [-] yuan using the old society's set of interest rates.

Why don't you quickly report it to the police and give it to them all?

Sister Gu did not dare, she looked frightened, "Brother and sister, no, no, we are all from our own village, how can we meet after such a quarrel?"

Third Sister Gu: "It's already like this. If we don't break up, why are we still meeting? Keep sending money to others?"
