After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

Chapter 386 I am your uncle Lai Zi

Because Xu Linzhi's family was unwilling to pay the money, the villagers of Xujia Village, led by Lai Zi, continued to live in their small courtyard.

Anyway, there is no shortage of food and drink here, and there are people serving you every day. It is definitely better than the shantytown in the north of the city.

So in the blink of an eye, they had stayed there for more than ten days.

"Dad, if they continue to live here, I'm going to go crazy."

Xu Linzhi really couldn't stand these people crowding together all day long, so Gao and Xu Guihua forced their way into her house.

All the clothes and accessories that they had carefully prepared were found out and put into their pockets openly.

However, after several thefts, Xu Linzhi's family became very cautious. They usually only left a few dozen taels of loose change outside, and the rest were hidden very secretly.

So even though these people searched around the yard every day, they only found the small change.

"Do you think I don't want them to leave?"

Xu Qingrong rubbed his head irritably and looked at the people in the room with vicious eyes.

These people have changed a lot since they came out of Xujia Village.

In the past, he obeyed the orders of the village chief, but now he is as difficult to deal with as a vampire leech.

"Their appetites have been enlarged. Even fifty taels of silver won't get them away. They insist on getting a hundred taels."

Xu Qingrong felt a bit of a headache. He was also very angry because the money he earned from selling these people was just a small amount, and later all the money was taken away by someone.

He suffered a bad reputation and was beaten, but in the end, it was outsiders who really benefited.

If these ten people were really given one hundred taels of silver, their families would be completely emptied and they would have difficulty surviving in the future.

And looking at the situation, even if their family is willing to take a step back, these people will not leave here so easily.

"Let's talk to Lai Zi later. If it doesn't work, we can give him some benefits in private."

Xu Linzhi came up with an idea. Lai Zi has now become the backbone of those people. As long as they deal with him first, the others will not be able to make trouble.

"That's a good idea. I'll go find Lai Zi now."

Xu Qingrong wiped his face. They had originally thought of instructing these people to cause trouble for Xu Qinghe, but Lai Zi was very cunning and shouted that they would never leave the yard unless they were given money.

The key point is that those people who live here are scrambling to use everything. Not only is the house occupied by them, but even for daily meals, if you are a little slower, you can only look at an empty bottom of the pot.

Poor eating and sleeping made Xu Linzhi's family very exhausted. Their wish to send these people away to harm Xu Qinghe reached its peak.

Xu Linzhi had already gotten to know Xu Qinghe's family thoroughly these days. He had several courtyards, so even if he gave one to these people to live in, it wouldn't be a big deal.

Over there, Xu Qingrong found Lai Zi. It was not known how he discussed things with him, but in the end Lai Zi agreed that everyone could take 60 taels of silver and leave.

That day, Lai Zi asked Xu Qinghe, and he said that only forty taels of silver would be needed to redeem the indenture, so they would still have twenty taels of silver left.

These twenty taels can't do much in the capital, but Lai Zi has already accepted the offer. As for the others, whether they can make a name for themselves depends on their own abilities.

As Yuxiu came out of the pharmacy, she heard the sound of footsteps behind her.

"That...niece..."

She heard the voice and turned around, and saw a thin man standing behind her, looking at her ingratiatingly.

"you are?"

This man looked very familiar. Yuxiu was a little confused, but she couldn't remember who he was for a moment.

"Hehe... I am, I am your Uncle Lai Zi..."

The visitor scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Niece, do you remember that I risked my life to get you out of the water..."

After he said this, Yuxiu really remembered these things in her mind, and she also realized that the man in front of her was the man from Xujia Village who Xu Qinghe brought back from the mine a few days ago.

"So it's Uncle Lai Zi. Of course I remember. I was pushed into the ditch and nearly drowned, but you were standing by and watching the fun with a smile..."

Yuxiu said this with a half-smile, and looked Lai Zi up and down, and found that the fabric of the clothes he was wearing today was quite good, but the sleeves and trouser legs were a little short.

"Hehe, it was Uncle Lai Zi who was wrong at first, but didn't he rescue you in time later?"

Lai Zi felt a little embarrassed listening to Yuxiu's sarcastic words.

But he was also flexible and started to apologize on the spot.

"I'm so sorry. I was young and ignorant at that time. I had no food to eat, and I took this opportunity to blackmail my second brother. My niece, please be magnanimous and don't argue with Uncle Lai Zi..."

As he said this, he bowed and bowed in a proper manner, then bent down to apologize to Yuxiu.

"So? After such a long time, does Uncle Lai want to return the money to us?"

Yuxiu couldn't help but laugh and took a step back. In fact, although this Lai Zi was a bit unruly and unpresentable, he really hadn't done anything bad when it came down to it.

Anyway, when he was in Xujia Village, he would speak well of whoever gave him food, and he would run faster than a rabbit if anyone asked him to work. Even the village chief found it difficult to get him to do anything.

Although he didn't intend to rescue the original owner at the beginning, he still lent a hand anyway.

Later, Xu Qinghe and Cui were still a little scared. They felt that if Lai Zi had not gone there, the original owner might have been pushed into the water and drowned by the three brothers.

"My niece is such a joker. Who are you now? Let alone those few copper coins, even if I took out all the silver in my pocket, you would still not look down on me..."

Lai Zi chuckled but didn't say anything empty.

He actually had a lot of silver and money in his arms today, but Lai Zi was a smart man and naturally understood that Yuxiu was just joking with him and shouldn't take it seriously.

"I came here to ask my second brother for help, but I haven't seen him after waiting here for a long time..."

Lai Zi got the money today, and deliberately said in front of Xu Qingrong that he wanted to come to Xu Qinghe's house to test the waters. This made the whole family very happy, and they immediately watched him leave.

"This is not the place to talk, so come with me."

This was in front of the pharmacy. Many horse-drawn carriages were arriving one after another. She thought about it and then took Lai Zi to a teahouse not far away.

Lai Zi didn't hide anything and told everything that had happened in the past few days.

"To be honest, I don't want that old guy to take out the silver."

Lai Zi sighed. Needless to say, the old boy he was referring to was naturally Xu Qingrong.

"We don't have to worry about food, drink, and other expenses when we live in his house. Even the clothes we wear are taken from their closets."

Having said that, after this experience in the mine, Lai Zi, who had lived in a muddle-headedness for half his life, finally came to his senses.
