Chapter 42 The Old Hen's Revenge
Xia Yuanqiu glanced coldly at Xia Tieniu, this 'relative' who lived in the same village as her: "Speaking of which, don't you just want to extort money from me? Yuan Ling, I will pay you back without saying a word, and I will never counter the price if you say what you want, but if Yuan Ling is not injured and just pretends to be hurt to extort money, then don't blame me for being rude, I will definitely sue you for extortion. "
Seeing that the expressions of Xia Tieniu's family had changed, Xia Yuanqiu turned his face to the villagers who squeezed in to watch from the fenced yard, and said, "I'll pay you a tael of silver, who can go to the Chen's mansion in the town to send a message for me right now?" , Chen Zhixian should not have left Xiaoyuan Town yet, please send a messenger and a doctor over to help me resolve this case."
The town is only seven or eight miles away from Xipo Village, and it doesn't take too long to catch up with the ox carts. You can earn a tael of silver by spreading the word. You must know that they planted ten acres of land, which can only be sold when the harvest is good. A few taels of silver, who wouldn't want such a beautiful job? Immediately, a large group of people gathered around and volunteered to spread the word.
Xia Yuanling's face turned pale with fright, how did she know that Xia Yuanqiu was scaring her, when she heard that the officials were sent, she immediately regretted it, and seeing so many people volunteering to spread the word, the three souls immediately scared two souls away, Quickly jumped up and said to Xia Yuanqiu: "It doesn't hurt anymore, it doesn't hurt anymore, I don't hurt anymore, so I don't need to bother the county magistrate."
The corners of Xia Yuanqiu's mouth couldn't help but curl up, and his beautiful eyes were shining with broken stars: "Are you sure it doesn't hurt? Do you need to go to the doctor to see the injury?"
Xia Yuanling hurriedly waved her hands: "No, no need, don't look at the injury, don't you think I'm all right now, there's nothing wrong with me." In order to prove that what she said was true, she even turned around in front of Yuan Qiu.
All the villagers couldn't help cursing angrily, secretly blaming Xia Yuanling for being in pain for a while and not for a while, causing the one tael of silver they got to fly away like this.
Seeing that her daughter was defeated, Mrs. Lin was anxious, rushed forward and shouted at Yuan Qiu: "Yuan Qiu, no matter what, we are all your elders, your uncle and aunt, you are the younger generation Yes, you can't ignore the life and death of the elders, the house at home is broken, you can't just build a new house for yourself, and don't help us repair the old house."
Yuan Qiu smiled, with sarcasm in his eyes, and said coolly: "Yuan Hao and I have been living in a dilapidated house for the past three years, without enough food and clothing. Since you call yourself uncle and aunt, why don't you see us as siblings?" Did you two give me a bowl of porridge? When you repaired the roof, did you think about repairing the roof of our sister and brother? When you ate the old hen, did you ever think about leaving a mouthful of soup for us sisters to drink?"
People in the village are neither deaf nor dumb, so they naturally know what Yuan Qiu said, including the old hen and eggs. The two helpless children refused to let go. They even stole and ate the only old hen that could lay eggs. They also stole all the eggs they had saved with great difficulty, without giving them any way to survive. If people stay, it's no wonder Yuan Qiu will blame them.
Lin's face was embarrassing, and he said with a dry smile: "Look at what you said, our family is so poor that we can hardly even drink rice soup. How can we eat old hens? You must be wrong, there is absolutely nothing, you know Well, the harvest has not been good in the past few years, and our family is struggling. Why don't we often ask you to lend money to Yuan Song to see a doctor? It’s a family, and the broken bones are still connected, don’t you think so.”
