Chapter 31 Madam Su, You Don’t Want This to Happen, Do You?
Chen Jie hurried home. For some reason, he had a bad feeling after hearing about Cui'er jumping into the well in Shangtao Village.
I didn’t even finish my meal at Bai’s house and I was in a hurry to go back.
Sure enough, before he reached the door of his house, Chen Jie saw a lot of people gathered at his house.
Chen Jie was shocked, thinking nothing would happen.
Thinking of Chen Jie, he ran home quickly.
At this time, in the courtyard of Chen Jie's house, Ma Liu was sitting on a chair, looking at Su Yunjin unscrupulously.
Not to mention, she is worthy of being the young master's favorite woman, she is really pretty.
Even wearing shabby clothes, it couldn't hide her beauty.
It would be really cool if I could play with this. I wonder if the young master can let me review it after he finishes his morning lessons. If so, I won't want the rewarded morning lessons.
I really can't understand why such a beautiful woman would follow that loser Chen Jiusi, and Chen Jiusi beat and scolded her, with a look of disgust. Isn't this a waste of a beautiful woman!
Ma Liu looked at Su Yunjin unscrupulously.
Su Yunjin felt uncomfortable all over and stood in front of the little kid. The little kid was so scared that he shrank behind Su Yunjin and dared not move.
Seeing this scene, Uncle Erba, who had heard the news a long time ago, came forward and asked, "Ma Liu, what are you doing?"
Ma Liu glanced at Uncle Erba and said, "Oh, Chen Quezi, I'm here to collect my debt! Where's Chen Jiusi? Tell him to get out."
"Ma Liu, how can you talk like that? My father and your father are of the same generation, you should at least call me uncle!"
When Xiaohu heard what Ma Liu said, he asked angrily.
Ma Liu ignored him and looked at Chen Erba and said, "Be my uncle. OK, call Chen Jiusi over and pay back the money so that I can report to my superiors. Then you will still be my uncle. Otherwise, I won't even recognize you as my father, let alone my uncle!"
"you!"
Chen Erba was irritated by Ma Liu, and Ma Liu looked at Su Yunjin and said, "Sister-in-law, please let Chen Jiusi come out. I've been waiting for half an hour."
Su Yunjin said: "I've already told you that he has become an apprentice to Doctor Bai."
"Heh, he can be an apprentice to Doctor Bai, right? Okay, stop lying, and return the money quickly. He can be anything he wants to be. Even if he is a turtle, I don't care about him, right brothers?"
Ma Liu turned around and said to the younger brothers behind him.
"Correct."
The younger brothers responded.
……
Looking at the noisy scene in the courtyard, those watching outside asked each other questions.
"What happened?"
"He's here to collect debts. It seems that Chen Jiusi owes a loan shark."
"No way, didn't Chen Jiusi learn it well?"
"Humph, he can learn it well."
After listening to everyone's discussions, Chen Sanliu crossed his arms and watched the fun, with a look of schadenfreude on his face.
You haven't been showing off enough these days, now you're getting your reward.
Not far away, Lu San, who had a lame leg, came to watch the fun with the support of Lu Qin. When he heard that Chen Jie was in trouble, Lu San felt no pain in his waist or legs, and he jumped over a hundred meters in one breath without any effort.
At this time, Chen Jiusi was lying on the wall watching the fun with hatred in his eyes. He was really unlucky.
Seeing more and more people gathering, Su Yunjin's face became ugly. Chen Jiusi had just learned well, had he become bad again?
But the comfortable days lasted only two days. If this was a dream, it was too short. Am I going to fall into hell again?
"Sister, my brother-in-law..."
The little kid grabbed his sister's sleeve.
Chen Erba looked at Su Yunjin and said, "Yunjin, Jiusi has not had time to gamble these days, so it shouldn't be a recent debt. Don't worry, I'll ask first."
Thinking about this, Uncle Erba came over and said to Ma Liu, "Ma Liu, when did Jiu Si owe you this money?"
Ma Liu said: "About one or two months."
After hearing this, Chen Erba and Su Yunjin both breathed a sigh of relief. It was not just these two days. At least it proved that Jiu Si's repentance was true and he was not lying to them. Uncle Erba: "So how much money does he owe?"
"Why, you guys want to help pay it back."
Ma Liu looked at Uncle Erba, who said, "Yeah."
Ma Liu took out the IOU and showed it. Uncle Erba looked at Su Yunjin, but he couldn't read.
Su Yunjin looked over and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"How many girls?"
Second Uncle asked, Su Yunjin's face turned happy and he said, "One tael of silver."
"One or two taels. OK, Huzi, go home and get the money."
"Hey."
Hu Zi responded.
Su Yunjin said, "Uncle Erba, I don't need so much. I have eight cents. You can just lend me another two cents."
"Oh, that's okay."
As Uncle Erba said this, he prepared to send Huzi to get the money.
Ma Liu looked at the two of them and laughed out loud: "Haha, one tael of silver, you... you don't really think it's one tael of silver, do you?"
"Look carefully, this IOU was made on March 2, the ninth year of the Zhizheng reign. It's already May, two months, and interest is included."
Ma Liu looked at Su Yunjin and Erba Shu.
After hearing this, the two of them froze, and then Uncle Erba looked at Ma Liu and said, "Well, how much is it now?"
Ma Liu smiled and said, "Not much. With compound interest and arbitrage, it's only... twenty taels!"
"How many?!!"
After hearing this, Uncle Erba and Su Yunjin’s eyes almost popped out. Twenty taels!
Twenty taels!
"How can this roll so much?"
Both of them couldn't believe it, and the people outside were all staring. Twenty taels, fuck, even if they sold the Chen family, they wouldn't get that much money.
And Lu San outside almost set off firecrackers to celebrate. It was what he deserved. Chen Jiusi finally got his retribution.
Cool!
After hearing this, Su Yunjin almost fell down and his body swayed.
Seeing this, Ma Liu was about to help, but Su Yunjin quickly dodged and said with a pale face, "Twenty taels, we'll sell everything we have to pay it back!"
Ma Liu said: "Well, we have to hurry up, we have to turn it over tomorrow!"
Su Yunjin looked at Ma Liu in despair, and Ma Liu said with a grin, "What kind of look is that, sister-in-law?"
Su Yunjin asked, "What if I can't pay it back?"
Ma Liu smiled and approached him, saying, "If you can't pay it back, I'll take your house and all the valuables, and then cut off your arms and legs, and beat you into a cripple."
Su Yunjin's face turned pale instantly.
Ma Liu's eyes flashed with evil light as he looked Su Yunjin up and down and said, "Sister-in-law, you don't want your man to become a cripple with all his limbs broken, do you?"
"Actually, I have a plan. If you're willing, you don't even have to pay back the principal, let alone the 20 taels of interest. What do you think?"
"Do, what?"
Su Yunjin seemed to have thought of something and looked at Ma Liu with a pale face.
Ma Liu was about to speak with a smile on his face when he suddenly heard a voice coming from behind.
"Hey, Brother Ma Liu is here, why didn't you tell me earlier so I could greet him!"
Hearing the voice, everyone looked over and saw Chen Jie slowly walking in from the gate, looking at Ma Liu with a smile on his face.
The moment he saw Chen Jie, Su Yunjin breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiusi, you are back!
