The Princess of Northern Land

"Okay." Lin Changshu agreed.

There was medicinal wine at home, and after he and Wu Dayou used it, they felt that their injuries were much better.

"What happened?" The old man came in panting and asked with his two children, and people from the Bai family came back with them.

"It hurts, wow." Lin Yanzhi cried when he saw the injury on Lin Changshu's face.

"It's just a little skin injury." Lin Changshu replied sheepishly. Guo Huiniang saw her son crying so much that she had to go over and hug him to comfort him.

"How could it be so badly injured?" Seeing the bruises on the two people's faces, Bai Dazhuang asked anxiously.

Since Lin Changshu and Wu Dayou came back at noon, and the injuries on their faces were obvious, everyone in the village now knew that they had been beaten, so after returning from the fields, the Bai family also came to take a look. , before entering the door, I saw the old man coming back with two children carrying baskets on their backs.

Lin Changshu saw their concern and told the story again.

"Those people are all under the control of Lai Zi and Li Guan, they are desperadoes. Your business is in jeopardy." Bai Dazhuang frowned after hearing this.

He is also someone who often goes to the market to find work. He knows exactly what kind of people there are in the market.

"Brother Bai, I want to ask you for a favor." Lin Ziyin said with a smile.

"Say." Bai Dazhuang looked at her and asked.

"We have an agreement with the meat stall in the market. Can you help me go over and tell us that we will go get it on the 14th. It's definitely not possible now." Lin Ziyin replied sheepishly, "Our family We definitely can’t get past it for the time being.”

"Okay, I'll go to the market in the afternoon." Bai Dazhuang readily agreed.

"You deserve it." The village is so big, and Mrs. Yan also knew that Lin Changshu was beaten when he went to the market to do business. As soon as she heard the news, she started to gloat.

"Mom, what are you happy about?" Ma Zhicai frowned and looked at his mother, "They have no way to make money, how can they pay us back the money?"

"If you don't have money, just use the land to pay off the debt." Yan replied carelessly. The Lin family encountered troubles one after another, and the family had been drained dry for a long time, but the remaining three acres of paddy fields were excellent.

She has long been jealous. If the Lin family cannot come up with money to pay back their family, it would be best to use land to pay off the debt.

After hearing this, Ma Zhicai relaxed his brows and finally said nothing more.

People from the village came to express their condolences to Lin Changshu and Wu Dayou one after another, either real or fake, and they really saw the excitement. After everyone left, it was getting dark.

"This is the silver from selling tofu and braised pork, a total of two taels." Lin Changshu handed the money bag to Lin Ziyin.

"Grandpa, brother, give these forty coins to the owner of the mill, saying that this is the money to rent the millstone." Lin Ziyin counted out the copper plates and handed them to Lin Changshu. "Take the rest with you. You and Brother Wu will quickly buy the jars tomorrow."

"Okay. I'll leave the rest to you when I get back." Lin Changshu promised.

The old man had no objection, and Ziyin was very considerate. Although country people are simple, when it comes to money issues, they will definitely make people suspicious after a long time.

Renting it with money would be different.

After dinner, the old man and Lin Changshu went to Lao Manzi's house at the entrance of the village with forty copper coins.

Old Manzi's family was actually better off than the Lin family. The five members of their family opened their eyes wide in surprise when they saw the forty copper coins sent by the old man and Lin Changshu.

The old man took the initiative to tell me the reason for giving the copper plate.

"We can't accept this." Old Manzi was poor, but a real person. As soon as he heard this, he returned the copper plate to the Lin family. "I just borrowed the millstone. I won't use it at home for the time being. We can't accept these copper coins."

"Take it, I can feel at ease when I use the millstone. Since you are willing to continue to lend me the millstone, you must hold these copper plates. It will take a few months." The two people retreated to the door. The old barbarian was still very unhappy. It was so embarrassing that his family members also rushed to return the coins.

The second room of the Ma family lives next door, that is, Mrs. Bao, a woman with tall cheekbones. Old Manzi's house does not have a yard. What happened here can be heard clearly by the neighbor next door. When the Lin family gave Old Manzi 40 cents and said When it was time to rent the millstone, she was so jealous that she wanted to run over and grab the copper coins.
