Six-Year-Old Child, Baojiao, is Busy with Kingdom-Building Chapter 207

  Chapter 207 Borrowing money

  Xiao Li shook his head and hurriedly said: "Mom, I only ate two pieces of snacks, and I'm still hungry."

  Liu Zhihua touched his head, smiled and said: "Okay, mother is teasing you, let's go to the front yard for dinner, mother cooks stew and noodles today."

   Before Xiao Li could speak, Erya raised her hand excitedly and shouted, "Wow! I love the soft, glutinous pork belly inside."

  Xiao Li raised his hand and said, "I like meatballs the most."

Jiaojiao has eaten stew twice, and it was hot in her mouth, but her favorite is the soft sweet potato flour inside. The soft and glutinous stew is very delicious. She said: "I love rice noodles. ~"

   "There are all of these, a big pot is full today, let you eat your fill."

  The corners of Liu Zhihua's mouth were raised. In fact, stewed dishes are less troublesome, and it's rare that children also like to eat them.

  Qiu Sheng is not used to this scene, but Wang Yaozu is curious, isn't it just an ordinary stew, why are the brothers and sisters so excited.

Suddenly, he thought that his brothers and sisters could read books just now, so he walked up to the third aunt and gave a thumbs up to praise: "Third aunt, the younger brothers and sisters are really good, they can know so many words at a young age, and Xiao Li just returned it to me." I talked about Yi Zhuan, I just finished reading it this year, Xiao Li is really too smart."

Liu Zhihua was naturally happy when she heard that, hugged Jiaojiao and explained: "Qiusheng made them a booklet to learn how to read. Xiao Li doesn't like to read and read. Later, he became obsessed with these scriptures. He didn't expect to be able to recognize so many characters. The little-headed melon is very smart, and the third aunt is very pleased now."

  Xiao Li heard that his cousin and mother praised him, and scratched his head in embarrassment. In fact, he is not that good, far worse than his elder brother.

   "Mother, bring the kids over for dinner."

  Wang Zhuangzhi's energetic voice came from the front yard.

  Liu Zhihua stopped chatting and led the children forward.

   After lunch, it was hot at noon.

  Jiaojiao's forehead was covered with sweat, and a group of children went back to the house to play.

  Liu Zhihua was cleaning the pots and pans in the kitchen, and Wang Zhuangzhi was fetching water from the well outside the yard to clean the horses.

  The horse has been running around on the road for the past two days, and has not been groomed properly. In addition, the weather is hot today, and the place where the horse is tethered will smell a little, so it needs to be washed well.

  While scrubbing the car body, Wang Zhuangzhi accidentally saw two watermelons in the car. After thinking about it, he knew it must be Xiao Duan.

  The money he earned, although he spent it in his spare time, he confiscated a lot of it himself, but Wang Zhuangzhi didn't keep it and gave it back to him.

   These two big watermelons also cost a lot of money, and it is enough for him to have this kind of heart.

   "Mother, there are two watermelons given by Xiaoduan in the car, you can cut and eat them for the children later." Wang Zhuangzhi yelled.

  After Liu Zhihua heard it, she shook off the water droplets on her hand, and went straight out of the kitchen door to check.

Looking at the two round and big watermelons, Liu Zhihua smiled and said, "This stuff quenches thirst and heat very well. I think the kids won't be able to eat it just after eating. Master, put the watermelon in a basket and hang it down the well to cool down. After a while, the kids will wake up to take a nap and eat."

   "Oh, yes."

  After finishing the watermelon matter, Wang Zhuangzhi went to wash the horse.

   After a while, there was a loud knock on the door.

  Wang Zhuangzhi was in the front yard, sweating from his forehead after washing the horse. He rinsed his hands with clean water, then got up and opened the door.

  Boom boom boom—

   "Aspiration, are you at home!"

  Wang Zhuangzhi opened the door, and he saw Sun Sihai, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

  After the surprise, Wang Zhuangzhi said excitedly again: "Oh, Sihai, it's been a long time since you've seen you, please come in."

  Wang Zhuangzhi enthusiastically pulled him in.

Sun Sihai looked a little hesitant, and finally made up his mind and sighed and said: "Zhuangzhi, I went to sell wild goods two days ago and was cheated by a few businessmen from the west. It's useless to report to the official if the person has gone away, my old lady is seriously ill, my wife and a few children are still waiting for living expenses, and hunting is not good at the moment, I really have no choice but to come looking for you.”

  Wang Zhuangzhi stopped when he heard his footsteps, and frowned and looked at Sihai, "You are such a big man, how could you let them deceive you?"

   "It's a long story. In short, those people are very good at playing tricks. I also fell into their trap through negligence. It's too late to say anything now."

  Sun Sihai had tears in his eyes, the savings he had accumulated over ten years of hard work disappeared, the wife washed her face with tears all day long, and the children unknowingly asked their father to buy snacks and toys, but his pockets were cleaner than his face.

  Wang Zhuangzhi saw him like this, so he guessed that he was being troubled, otherwise it would be impossible to say this, so he thought for a while and asked: "Sihai, how much do you need?"

   If there is not much, he will give it secretly, and there is no need to alarm the lady.

   "One hundred taels."

   After finishing speaking, Sun Sihai pursed his lips.

  Actually, when he said this, he was nervous. The medicine that the doctor gave to my old lady was too expensive, but I couldn't ignore it.

  He asked relatives and friends for a while, and finally he borrowed ten taels of silver. No matter how thick-skinned he was, he was too embarrassed to ask for help a second time.

  Finally, I had no choice but to find Zhizhi.

He naturally knows what a hundred taels of silver means to ordinary people, and he came here this time only with the mentality of trying it out. After all, one hundred taels is not a small amount, and his relatives and friends all politely shied away. Wealthy, and he is a friend, so he has a few hopes.

  Wang Zhuangzhi choked, and if thirty-four taels still needed to be negotiated, he would lend it, but he still couldn't get the hundred because the money was with the lady.

   "Sihai, sit down and drink some water first, and I'll call your sister-in-law."

   "Oh, good." Sun Sihai nodded hastily.

  Wang Zhuangzhi walked all the way to the second entrance courtyard. Liu Zhihua had just finished cleaning the kitchen. She took off the apron and walked out. Seeing the man in charge at the door smiled and asked, "What's the matter these two days? You've been following me all day."

  Wang Zhuangzhi rubbed his nose, the nine-foot-tall man was a bit cautious in front of the lady, he leaned closer and whispered: "My lady, something happened to Sihai's family, he wants to borrow a hundred taels of silver to make money, look..."

  Liu Zhihua was still laughing at first, but when she heard that she was going to borrow money, and it was only one hundred taels, her smile suddenly disappeared, and her eyes became serious.

"no."

  She is not short of one hundred taels now, but borrowing money is not such a method of borrowing, as ordinary people in the countryside don't have one hundred and two hundred taels to borrow.

  Wang Zhuangzhi was stunned for a moment, expecting his wife to refuse, but he didn't expect to refuse so quickly, he explained in a low voice with some embarrassment: "Sihai's mother is seriously ill, and I think I'm in a hurry to see a doctor."

Liu Zhihua shook her head directly when she heard this, "Don't say I'm ruthless. This one hundred taels of silver is enough for an ordinary family to live for a lifetime. Sihai is a hunter like you. It costs a hundred taels of silver to see a doctor. Who can afford it?" .”
