Chapter 54 Ruan Erwu is in a hurry
Ruan Mengmeng can understand Zhao Meifeng's behavior, after all, she has no feelings for her, but Ruan Erwu is different, he can't understand how his mother can say such a thing.

"Mother!" Ruan Erwu's face was a little ferocious with excitement, "Do you know what you are talking about? Do you know how you can say such things?"

"The two of them are your granddaughters! You let them go to such a place to sell themselves for money, to collect money?"

Zhao Meifeng glanced at him and said coldly, "These two are worthless girls. What's wrong with selling themselves? They can save their third uncle by selling themselves in a place like that. That's their blessing. In the future, the third uncle will have a future. They are meritorious officials, and the family will remember them as good, and after they die, let the third child get them a place with good Feng Shui as the head office, right?"

Ruan Erwu rolled his eyes in anger, "That's my daughter, not some worthless girl! I can't tolerate your mother being trampled on like this!"

Zhao Meifeng looked at him sharply, "You want to quarrel with me because of a girl? Do you know what filial piety is?"

Ruan Erwu yelled angrily, "Isn't it just 500 taels of silver? I'll give it to you, and I'll give it to you in a while. Don't think about my girls in the future. I really feel disgusted that they have you as a grandmother!"

"you……"

Ruan Erwu didn't talk to her any more, and left directly with a shake of his sleeves.

Seeing Ruan Erwu walking away, Liu He wanted to catch up with her, but Zhao Meifeng called her, "Where are you going? The second one can get the money by himself. What are you going to do? There is still work to do at home."

Hearing this, Liu He lowered his eyes and said nothing.

Ruan Mengmeng looked at Liu He, got up and left directly.

Zhao Meifeng didn't call her and let her go.

After leaving the house, Ruan Mengmeng wanted to find Ruan Erwu, but found that he was gone, and she lost his trace.

Where did he go?When he said he wanted to give money, where did he plan to get the money?

Unable to figure it out, Ruan Mengmeng thought about how to make money quickly. Now that she has hundreds of taels of silver on hand, if she uses these as costs, it should be no problem to turn over the money a few times, right?

After making up her mind, Ruan Mengmeng went to the town to figure out what business to do.

After searching all afternoon, Ruan Mengmeng started to have some knowledge, and the sky darkened. She didn't dare to delay, so she left the town and returned to Ruan's Village.

Inside the room, Ruan Mengmeng was about to tell Ruan Erwu what she thought, but Ruan Erwu came to her first and said, "Where is the money you earned? Give it to me."

"What is Dad going to do?"

"I collected the rest of the silver and plan to give it to Dad."

"Where did dad get it?"

"Don't ask, just give it to me!"

Ruan Erwu's rare serious face made Ruan Mengmeng a little apprehensive, she frowned for a while, and handed over all the money she earned these days to Ruan Erwu.

After taking the silver, Ruan Erwu counted it, and immediately went to Ruan Xiong's house and handed the silver to him.

After paying the money, Ruan Erwu heaved a sigh of relief, and went back to the house without saying a word, and just fell asleep.

Ruan Mengmeng originally wanted to find an opportunity to ask Ruan Erwu where his money came from, but seeing him like this, he didn't ask him that night. It was only when Ruan Erwu got up the next day that Ruan Mengmeng came to him and asked, "Dad, where did you get your money?" of?"

Ruan Erwu knew that she would know sooner or later, and after resting for a night, he recovered a lot, and said, "This is the usury I borrowed from someone."

Usury money?Isn't this the same thing as modern loan sharking?
"Father, you borrowed more than 300 taels of silver, how much do you have to repay?"

"We have to pay back a total of 500 taels, more than 80 taels per month, and it will be paid off in half a year."

Ruan Mengmeng looked serious, "More than 80 taels a month, where can I find it?"

Now that she has no special skills, it is difficult to make money. Moreover, she can't do the business she thought about yesterday. Without a lot of costs, how can she do business to make money?

"I've thought about it. If I don't come out, I'll have my hands and feet cut off. In the end, I'll die. But it's better than you being forced to sell yourself."

"You're going to die, what about our family?" Ruan Mengmeng said solemnly, "Father, you shouldn't have the idea of ​​sacrificing your life to save everyone, and you think those people won't chase after you if you die. Is it in debt? At that time, we will still be forced to sell ourselves, right?"

Ruan Erwu was stunned. Obviously, he hadn't considered this issue. He only thought about what he was carrying. As long as he could carry it, he would be able to protect his family, but he never thought about it. They are all desperate people, even if he dies, they will be forced to have no way out.

"I...I haven't thought about this problem." His voice was hoarse, and for a moment he was even more decadent than yesterday.

Seeing him like this, Ruan Mengmeng couldn't bear to blame him, and said, "Father, I didn't mean to say anything about you, but I just hope you don't have such thoughts in the future."

Ruan Erwu suddenly slapped his face with a slap, "Now that the usury is borrowed, what should I do? What should I do if it still doesn't come out?"

He pumped so hard that his face turned red.

Ruan Mengmeng's heart trembled, and she comforted, "Father, don't worry, our family can always find a way to make money."

Ruan Erwu looked at her with raised eyelids, as if he was about to cry, but he couldn't help himself from crying.

Hey... Ruan Mengmeng felt very complicated and sad for such a big man to be forced into such a situation by Yin Zi.

"Father, don't worry, I will find a way to earn money." She comforted again, and then left the house and walked out.

After Ruan Erwu felt uncomfortable for a while, he rushed out of the house as if going crazy.

Liu He saw the two walking one after the other, and wanted to catch up with them, but in the blink of an eye, they both disappeared.

Liu He had no choice but to go back to the house and ask Ruan Erniu about the situation.

Ruan Erniu heard the conversation between the two, she asked, and she told the truth.

After hearing this, Liu He turned pale.

She also asked Ruan Erwu where the money came from. Unexpectedly, it was borrowed as usury money. If it didn't come out, her family would be ruined.

"Mother, more than 80 taels of silver, can't we earn it in a month?" Ruan Erniu murmured.

Having grown up so big, she has done a lot of work, but she has never had much contact with silver, so she is vague about this concept.

Liu He looked at her with complicated eyes and said, "Our family is exhausted. We can only earn ten taels of silver a year. We are still a big family. Now there are only four of us, and we have nothing. How can we earn money?" ?”

"Then what if you can't make money?" Ruan Erniu asked doubtfully.

Tears welled up in Liu He's eyes. If he couldn't earn it, then Ruan Erwu would definitely have his arms and legs chopped off, and the three of them, mother and daughter...not to mention what would happen.

Although Liu He didn't make a sound, seeing her uncomfortable appearance, Ruan Erniu could easily imagine how terrible the consequences would be.

She lowered her eyes and comforted, "Mom, don't worry, if you really can't make any money, then I'll sell myself."
