The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Chapter 29 Juanzi was taken away by people from underground banks

The fool said: "Her brother costs twenty taels to marry, and she costs eighty taels to marry. She is quite expensive."

Cheng Feng said: "That was in the past, now it is two hundred taels, plus building a big brick house for her brother."

The fool said: "Oh, you dare to ask for a price."

Cheng Feng said: "In the final analysis, I am still sorry for her. If I had the ability to come up with eighty taels at that time, what happened later would not have happened."

The fool said: "We will have money tomorrow. When you get the money tomorrow, you can choose to stay and fly with her."

Cheng Feng immediately changed his face: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

The fool stopped talking when she saw that Cheng Feng was unhappy. She took out the fried donkey-hide gelatin and poured it on the chopping board. Although Cheng Feng was unhappy, he still rolled out the donkey-hide gelatin with a rolling pin.

Then the fool made the next pot of donkey-hide gelatin, and made pot after pot. When it was almost done, the fool took out a pen and started writing an introduction to donkey-hide gelatin, one after another.

Cheng Feng started packing, and the two of them cooperated very well, but neither one paid attention to the other. Regardless of this small amount of work, the two of them worked very late.

When I went to bed, Idiot deliberately stayed far away from Cheng Feng, but Cheng Feng shamelessly leaned against me. Idiot could feel the heat on the top of my head. She bumped Cheng Feng hard with her elbow. Although Cheng Feng was thin, he was Thin and muscular, he didn't feel any pain at all when the fool bumped into him. Instead of moving away from the fool, he moved closer to him.

Cheng Feng's health was very good, and Fool's health was too bad, so Fool was exhausted before Cheng Feng had even finished having fun. Seeing that Fool was sweating all over, he held Fool in his arms and said, "You still want to talk about it later?" That’s nonsense.”

The fool also became stubborn: "I'll just say it."

Cheng Feng said: "Okay." Then Cheng Feng pressed forward again. Seeing this, the fool quickly surrendered and said: "I won't say anything anymore."

Cheng Feng said: "Sleep." The two of them went to bed after having a little fuss.

The reason why Cheng Feng gave Juanzi twenty taels was because Juanzi's brother was getting engaged to Hongyun in the village. Lao Ma's family had gone to their house several times to look for Juanzi's brother, but they had not seen Juanzi's brother. Even though Juanzi's brother was nowhere to be found, only Cheng Feng knew where Juanzi's brother was.

It is difficult for Juanzi's brother to marry a wife because his character is too bad, and even a girl from the saying family cannot marry such a man.

Cheng Feng also heard that Hongyun already had Juanzi's brother's child in her belly. If there was such a scandal, if Juanzi's family didn't get twenty taels, Lao Ma's family would sell their daughter, so Cheng Feng Gave Juanzi twenty taels of silver.

The next morning when the two of them arrived in the city, the first thing they did was to deliver two hundred packs of donkey-hide gelatin to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper took out the banknote and gave them two hundred taels. Cheng Feng gave the shopkeeper twenty taels. Said: "This is the money I didn't ask for from you yesterday. Also, do you still have the milk?"

The shopkeeper nodded and said, "Yes, the new ones arrived this morning. Come to the backyard with me."

The fool thought for a moment. She remembered that she still had it at home, so why did she want to buy it again? But they had just sold someone two hundred taels of donkey-hide gelatin. It seemed a bit stingy for her to stop Cheng Feng from buying other people's milk, so she looked at Cheng Feng. Feng bought three tubes of milk.

After returning home, the fool realized why Cheng Feng bought milk. It was because boss Qian said yesterday that she would grow taller if she drank some milk. It seemed that Cheng Feng believed it. After dinner, Cheng Feng cooked a bowl of milk for her. , she drank a bowl of milk every day for the next few days.

As for Fool's little stature, she had long suspected that she would not be able to grow taller. Because of severe congenital nutritional deficiencies, as well as acquired environmental and man-made influences, the possibility of her growing taller was not very high.

Maybe Cheng Feng felt that she was too short and wanted her to grow taller, so she had no choice but to give it a try.

With money in hand, the lives of the two of them have become more stable. Cheng Feng is thinking about building a house when the weather is warm in spring. He has been asking Uncle Chen about building a house recently, and they understand almost everything.

Uncle Chen had long seen that this young couple was rich, and he also guessed that they would definitely build a house next year. The eldest and second eldest son of their family were both masons, and all the house builders in the village came to their house to inquire.

The fool didn't think so. People came to make trouble here every three days. It didn't matter if they didn't live here. But Cheng Feng seemed to be nostalgic and had never planned to leave here. She didn't say anything. We'll talk about the future. The days are long. Take it one step at a time.

Seeing that the Chinese New Year was coming, Fool decided to buy a few bags of glutinous rice. She had inquired about it, and they also ate Yuanxiao on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month here. She wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make some money.

Cheng Feng didn't have any objections. Even a fool could sell anything that could be sold or not, and he made a lot of money. In terms of making money, he was far behind the fool. He felt dissatisfied, so he just followed the fool's advice these days. The manpower is ready to grind the glutinous rice into glutinous rice flour, and save it for the few days after the New Year to make Lantern Festival. They don't have time these days, because the closer to the New Year, the busier the two of them are, but for the sake of money In terms of appearance, both of them can persist, mainly because the work they do is not heavy work.

After several days of hard work, the Spring Festival is just around the corner. Today Cheng Feng said: "The Chinese New Year will be the day after tomorrow. Don't make too many things. It will be difficult to sell these things after the New Year."

Even a fool thinks about it. I bought all the melon seeds and candies that I should have bought before the new year. There will definitely be very few people buying them after the new year.

The next day, two people were planning to buy some New Year goods behind the stall. When they were planning, Juanzi's mother came over. Her eyes were red, her hair was disheveled, and her face was covered with tears because it was cold and her face was wet. Some were cracked by the cold. She grabbed Cheng Feng's arm and said, "Cheng Feng, go and save Juanzi quickly, right?"

Cheng Feng frowned and said, "What happened?"

Juanzi's mother said: "Juanzi's brother owes a lot of money to outsiders. Her brother has been hiding somewhere recently and has not come home. People who want to pay are coming to the door. They say they can't get the money." They wanted to use Juanzi to pay off the debt, but they said they would put her in a brothel to make money, and they would not let her go until she made enough money."

After saying this, Juanzi's mother burst into tears again.

Cheng Feng said with a cold face: "Where is Juanzi? Has she been taken away?"

Juanzi's mother wiped away her tears and said, "I was arrested in the morning. I couldn't find you when I went to your house, so I came here to look for you."

Cheng Feng said anxiously: "Who captured Juanzi?"

"People from underground banks, they lent money to Brother Juanzi for gambling and then collected interest."

Cheng Feng's eyebrows were about to become knotted. He said, "How much do you owe me in total?"

Juanzi's mother cried and said: "Two hundred taels, Cheng Feng, please go and save Juanzi quickly?"

Cheng Feng thought for a moment and then said, "Let me go with you."

The fool quickly stopped and said, "Cheng Feng, you can't go. If you can't help with this kind of thing, don't get involved."

Cheng Feng's eyes were firm and he said: "I have to go and have a look, I can't let her be there."

The fool said: "Aren't you afraid of getting yourself involved?"

At this time, Cheng Feng had already stood up and followed Juanzi's mother out.

The fool wanted to say something else, but seeing that Cheng Feng was determined, she stopped saying anything and watched helplessly as Cheng Feng followed Juanzi's mother away.

This morning the fool's eyelids kept twitching, feeling that something was about to happen, but now it seems that it has really happened.

Idiot was selling things while waiting for Cheng Feng. Even in the afternoon, Cheng Feng didn't come back. Idiot thought something might have happened and she couldn't wait like this anymore.

She packed up her things and stopped selling them. She pushed the cart to find Uncle Chen. When Uncle Chen saw the fool pushing the cart by himself, he asked, "Where is Cheng Feng?"

The fool learned everything exactly from Uncle Chen.

Uncle Chen patted the carriage board and said, "Cheng Feng is so confused. How can he help them? Is that a place we can go to?"

The fool didn't know what kind of dragon pool and tiger's den Cheng Feng and the others were going to. She asked Uncle Chen, "What should we do now?"

Uncle Chen said: "Don't go anywhere, just wait for me here. I will go to the underground bank to inquire about it."

The fool stood here waiting for Uncle Chen. When it was completely dark, Uncle Chen drove the carriage back. Uncle Chen looked at the fool and said, "Get in the car, let's go back first."

The fool was not stupid. She knew something was wrong as soon as she heard it. She got into the carriage as Uncle Chen asked. After the carriage started running, the fool said, "Uncle Chen, has something happened?"

Uncle Chen said: "Cheng Feng stood up for Juanzi and injured several people in the bank. He has been arrested?"

The fool said in surprise: "Who caught him?"

Uncle Chen said: "The government, I guess I have to go to prison. People from underground banks are not easy to mess with."

The fool said very puzzledly: "Don't underground banks handle this kind of thing on their own? What they do is inherently shameful, so why do they report it to the government?" Even though she didn't know what underground banks were in this era. Organization, but after listening to Juanzi's mother's narration, she could guess a little bit. It was probably a place for loan sharking, doing some shady things.

Uncle Chen lamented: "In this world, whoever has the backers is the boss."

The fool said, "Can I see Cheng Feng when I go to the government tomorrow?"

Uncle Chen said: "Wait a little longer and I will inquire again. If the sentence is passed, I will receive a letter in a few days."

The fool said: "I give money to underground banks, can they let me go?"

Uncle Chen said: "The reason why Cheng Feng beat people is because they won't let Juanzi go even if they give him money. He doesn't want to see Juanzi being insulted, so he insists on doing something he can't get out of. Cheng Feng has been tricked by Juanzi." , Juanzi’s family has caused him a lot of trouble in recent years.”

The fool said: "Where is Juanzi now? Is she still in the bank?"

Uncle Chen said: "I heard that he ran away. As you know, there are not many people in these ten miles and eight villages who can match Juanzi's looks. They probably like Juanzi."

Uncle Chen knew that he should not tell these things to the fool, but the fool would know it sooner or later. He said to the fool: "Go back and discuss it with Cheng Feng's brother and sister-in-law?"
