The eldest sister also smiled and nodded to Wang Wu. Wang Wu took the two big bags on the cart into the store and said, "Master Wang, these are the golden pumpkins grown by my second daughter."

The golden pumpkin is the pumpkin with orange-red skin that we see today. Wang Yugui likes to eat it very much, and so does his whole family.

Then Wang Wu said, "It's growing well this year, so I sent some here for you to try. I also brought some salted fish, which was pickled by Erya from our family, and some spinach grown by Erge Li's family, so I brought some here, hehe!"

"Really? Oh, brother Wang Wu, you've worked hard. Come inside and sit down." Wang Yugui smiled and led Wang Wu to the backyard.

Wang Wu took the melons and vegetables into the backyard. Mrs. Wang was very happy to see him coming: "Oh, Wang Wu, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why are you darker?"

"Hey, Madam, I got this tanned in the fields in the summer. Not only me, but everyone in the village is tanned," Wang Wu laughed.

Wang also laughed: "Yes, yes, farmers get darker in the summer sun."

Seeing Wang Wu bringing a lot of pumpkins, spinach and salted fish, Wang said happily, "Wow, the pumpkins are growing so well, and the spinach is growing well too. Wang Wu, did you grow them?"

"The golden pumpkin was grown by my Erya, the spinach was grown by Li Erge's family, and I caught the fish. However, it was also pickled by my Erya, hehe." Wang Wu was very honest and confessed everything.

Wang heard this and laughed, "Oh, Wang Wu, you are so lucky to have married such a capable wife like Erya!"

"Hehe, yes, ma'am, I, I think so too," Wang Wu smiled.

Wang asked again: "Why didn't Erya come with you? Is she okay?"

"I came into town a little late today, so I didn't bring her with me. She's fine, and she eats more than me!" Wang Wu said with a smile

Wang and Wang Yugui both laughed when they heard this. Wang nodded and said, "Being able to eat is a blessing. It means you are in good health!"

"Wang Wu, wash your hands, go into the house and drink some water. Rest for a while, and you can have lunch soon."

"Oh, ma'am, I'm so embarrassed. It seems like I came here specially for lunch. Hehe." Wang Wu smiled embarrassedly.

He added: "If I hadn't suddenly remembered an important matter today and had to go into the city to talk to my boss, I would have planned to get up early tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"Oh, Wang Wu, what's the important matter with you? Come in and talk." Wang Yugui heard this and said hurriedly.

Wang Wu agreed and followed Wang Yugui into the main hall. He sat down, drank a bowl of water, and wiped his mouth: "Master Wang, do you still remember that my father-in-law borrowed money from Xi Laocai, the landlord of our South Village?"

"Your father-in-law borrowed money from Mr. Xi?" Wang Yugui listened, thought about it, and nodded: "Oh, you mean that Hua Da borrowed one or two taels of silver from Mr. Xi before?"

Wang Wu nodded: "Yes, last time, we wanted to pay it back in advance, but Xi Laocai didn't agree and even beat me up!"

"Yes, yes, yes. Later I brought the IOU here. It said that I would go to Xi Laocai to pay back the money after the due date." Wang Yugui remembered.

Wang Wu nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, Master Wang, you remember it all. Oh, I said you remember it."

"My father-in-law said that the money will be due tomorrow and I have to pay it back to Xi Laocai."

"He was afraid that you would forget to go to South Village, so he asked me to hurry into the city to tell you!"

"Ah? It's due tomorrow?" Wang Yutian was stunned and said hurriedly, "Wang Wu, wait a moment, I'll go find the IOU and take a look!"

As he said that, he went upstairs and found the IOU from Hua Da. When he looked at the date, it turned out to be due tomorrow!

Wang Yugui smiled embarrassedly: "Oh, Wang Wu, it's good that you reminded me. If you hadn't told me, I would have really forgotten it!"

"I thought it was due at the end of the year. Your father-in-law has a good memory, haha."

"Hehe, this is a concern for my father-in-law. He borrowed money from others and didn't pay it back. He is always worried about it. He has to pay it back to feel at ease." Wang Wu smiled

Wang Yugui nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, I understand. I will go back to Nancun with you tomorrow, oh, this afternoon."

"Tomorrow morning we will go to find Mr. Xi to pay off the debt and relieve your father-in-law's worries!"

"Okay, boss, I feel relieved when you say that, hehe." Wang Wu was happy.

Because Wang Wu came, Wang specially made another pot of pancakes and added two dishes.

My son told me that after dinner, he would go back to Nancun with Wang Wu in the afternoon.

Wang hurriedly prepared some food and bought two pounds of meat and ten large sesame cakes for Wang Wu to take away.

Wang Yugui bought two more boxes of snacks to take with him, got a donkey cart, and took Wang Wu and Ah Huang back to Nancun.

Erya knew that he was coming in the next few days, so she cleaned the house again in advance.

When Wang Yugui arrived in Nancun, he felt as comfortable as returning home. As usual, he went to Li Er's house to sit and ask about the recent situation in the village.

He picked up two boxes of snacks and went to the village chief's house to sit for a while, and asked him to accompany him to Xi Laocai's house to repay the money tomorrow.

After hearing this, the village chief nodded and agreed immediately. He thought it would be a good thing if he didn't do it.

After leaving the village chief's house, Wang Yugui went to look at his own fields and walked around the village. Unknowingly, he had bought 200 acres of land in Nancun.

"Mr. Wang, you have to be careful when you go to Xi Laocai's house tomorrow. His servants are very fierce." Hua Da expressed his concern as soon as he saw Wang Yugui.

Wang Yugui smiled: "Uncle Hua, don't worry, he doesn't dare to touch me!"

"Boss, I will call a few more young men from the village to go with you tomorrow. Xi Laocai is a very sinister guy. I'm afraid that if we are outnumbered, you will suffer a loss," Li Er also said.

Erya heard this and smiled: "Brother Li, there is no need to trouble the young men. I will go with Prince Wang tomorrow."

"It's better if the old man Xi doesn't use force, but if he dares to touch Young Master Wang, I will beat them to death!"

Wang Yugui had seen Erya's whip skills before, and it was pretty good. However, he didn't want to use a woman.

Wang Yugui smiled: "It's okay, I have just found the village chief, he will accompany me to find Xi Laocai tomorrow"

"Uncle Hua, Wang Wu, Li Er, the three of you just come with me."

Then he looked at Erya and said, "Erya, just cook at home. Make something delicious and wait for us to come back for dinner. Haha."

"Ah? Oh, okay, I'll listen to the boss." After hearing this, Erya was stunned for a moment and smiled.

……

The next morning, Wang Yugui brought Hua Da, Wang Wu, and Li Er, accompanied by the village chief, to Xi Laocai's house.

This was the first time that Wang Yugui came to Xi Laocai's house. As soon as he arrived at the door, he felt that Xi Laocai's financial resources were average.

His house is not as big as Wang Youcai's in Xiaowang Village, and not as magnificent as Lu Dafu's in Xiaoao Village.

Looking at the old rich man again, he seemed to be in his forties or fifties, and looked very thin, with a pointed face and monkey cheeks. He was wearing a black cloth robe, which made him look eerie.

However, his small eyes were quite bright and shrewd.

Seeing Wang Yugui coming with the village chief, Xi Laocai smiled and said, "Are you the young master Wang from the city?"

"Yes, I am Wang Yugui, Master Xi, hello." Wang Yugui stepped forward and saluted. He still had to be polite.
