Chapter 372 Drilling into the Dog Hole
Cao Zian coaxed, lied, and threatened, and almost pressed the dagger to Mrs. Cao's neck. Mrs. Cao finally relented and agreed to lend him five thousand taels of silver.
Mrs. Cao didn't want to lend him money, but the previous scandal of the Cao family had just dissipated, and the Cao family could no longer withstand the slightest setback, otherwise, the marriages of her children would really be delayed.
Cao Huajun is already over 20 years old. If he can't find a suitable wife, he will be laughed at.
Cao Huawen is also eighteen years old. If she can't find her husband's family this year, she will become an old girl. Cao Huajun is also not young, and will be born in May.
The marriage of several children was a worry in Mrs. Cao's heart. She did not want another turmoil in the Cao family to delay the marriage of her children.
He had no choice but to agree to Cao Zian's naughty request.
She held her chest, which was throbbing with anger, and glared resentfully at Cao Zian, who had taken the banknote with a proud look on his face, and said fiercely, "Okay, very good, I just helped a merciless white-eyed wolf." Ah, I really regret that I didn’t let you mother and son die in prison before.”
"Let me tell you, because you helped Brother Jun in the first place, this is the last time I will lend you money."
Although her Cao family had expressed her love for Cao Zian at the beginning, when Cao Zian got married, they spent four to five thousand taels of silver from her. She has already paid back this love.
Her Cao family no longer owes Cao Zian anything.
On the contrary, she asked people to go to the government to rescue the Cao family's mother and son. Now it is the Cao family's mother and son who owe the Cao family, not the Cao family who owes them.
Now, she regretted saving the mother and son.
Cao Zian is completely a villain who repays kindness with hatred.
Unfortunately, she woke up too late.
"Don't forget, how did Mrs. Zheng die?" Mrs. Cao said coldly.
Hum, when it comes to threats, it should be her who threatens Cao Zian, not Cao Zian who threatens her.
The incident involving her Cao family had been exaggerated at the beginning, and no one in the capital knew about it.
The reason why she agreed to lend money to Cao Zian was because she didn't want the newly healed wound to be torn apart by him again, which would affect the marriages of her children.
Spend a few thousand taels of silver and think of it as accumulating blessings for your children.
"Remember, there will be no next time, otherwise, I will personally send you to prison." Mrs. Cao said.
Cao Zian, who got the money, didn't take her threat to heart at all. He snorted and said shamelessly, "My whole life has been ruined by you. If you hadn't dragged me to take the blame for your son, I wouldn't have done it." I married that poisonous woman and ended up in this situation. You have to be responsible for my misfortune.”
"I'll take the five thousand taels of silver first. If it's not enough, I'll come again." After saying that, he ran away.
Mrs. Cao stared at his back, her liver hurting with anger.
Let's talk about Cao Zian. He held in his arms the five thousand taels of silver notes he had just obtained from Mrs. Cao, and entered his house anxiously.
"Hey, Uncle Cao is back."
As soon as Cao Zian closed the door, a gloomy voice came from behind.
He froze, and when he turned around, he saw six rough-looking, fierce-looking men sitting in the yard of his house.
The leader was a thin man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks.
The thin man had a sinister smile on his face, casting his sinister gaze into the arms he was holding, and asked with an evil smile, "The day has come. You won't tell us if you don't have the money you owe, will you?"
"Yes... yes, the younger one has been borrowed."
Cao Zian's eyes were filled with fear, and he quickly took out a thick stack of banknotes from his arms, "Master Qin, count them, it's just enough, a penny is a lot."
With that said, he painfully gave all the banknotes to Master Qin.
Master Qin didn't answer. He winked at a big man next to him and motioned for him to take it.
Erhu took the banknote, turned it over slightly, and counted it in his mind, "Brother, the banknote is not enough."
Before Mr. Qin could speak, Cao Zian jumped angrily, pointed at Erhu, and said angrily, "Fart...it's exactly five thousand taels. I just borrowed it. It's not enough for a penny. Why can't you say enough? You are Don’t you want to steal my money?”
"Who told you about five thousand taels of silver?" Master Qin said in a sinister voice.
Cao Zian was stunned, and his face suddenly turned pale, "Master Qin, Master Qin, please don't harm me. When I borrowed the money from you, I agreed that I would borrow three thousand taels of silver and pay it back in three months with an interest of two One thousand taels, with interest, not five thousand taels, what is that?”
Master Qin smiled sinisterly and said evilly, "You said that happened three months ago. It's been three months. Things must have changed. Our interest rate was increased two months ago. Double, according to calculation, you have to pay back four taels The interest on the silver has now been paid back two thousand taels, and I still owe two thousand taels. However, since you can repay the silver quickly, I will calculate the two thousand taels for you according to the rules of borrowing principal and repaying interest. ”
Borrowing principal and repaying interest means that Cao Zian can not repay the two thousand silver for the time being. Even if it is the principal lent to him, he will only need to pay back an interest every month.
However, this interest must be paid back every month, continuously.
Of course, if he has money, he can also pay back the principal when repaying the interest, and this high-interest debt will be completely eliminated.
If he couldn't repay the principal, he would have to repay the interest of one thousand taels of silver every month.
Cao Zian was stunned for a moment, "How could this happen? I just lent you three thousand taels of silver. I paid back five thousand taels. How can it not be enough? Master Qin, please, I really have no money. I..."
"No money, hum, well, then I will take over this house."
When Cao Zian borrowed money, he used the deed of this house as collateral.
When Cao Zian heard this, panic appeared on his face, "No, if you take the house away, where will my mother and I live?" "Master Qin, please, give me one more day, and those two thousand taels of silver , I will pay you back tomorrow." Cao Zian was sweating profusely, "I will do what I say, I will pay you back tomorrow."
"Remember, don't blame Mr. Qin for being cruel and not giving you a way to survive. If I don't see the money tomorrow, don't blame me for being cruel."
Master Qin smiled sadly.
No matter what, it finally gave Cao Zian a way to survive.
Cao Zian knelt on the ground and kowtowed violently, "Thank you Master Qin for your great kindness. I will definitely pay you back tomorrow."
But I was thinking in my heart, how could I ask Mrs. Cao to borrow two thousand taels of silver after a while.
Mr. Qin stuck out his tongue, licked his lips, and said with an evil smile, "To be honest, I really don't care about this broken house. I prefer that Uncle Cao can give some interest every month to the brothers. ”
"Brothers, are you right?" He yelled at the big men behind him.
"Big brother said yes, that's it."
"Even if we sell this shabby house, we won't be able to sell it for a few cents."
"Look at what he looks like. Haha, it's best to pay back the two thousand silver tomorrow. Otherwise, there is a shortage of people over there in Qinghua Lane, so we can just send him there."
Qinghua Lane is a famous alley in the capital. There are more than twenty private cottages. The owners are all men. Each of them has a group of handsome and beautiful teenagers for the entertainment of the nobles who are looking for fun. .
Cao Zian has been in the capital for two years and has been hanging out in casinos for a few months. He has certainly heard of Qinghua Lane.
His face turned pale and he hurriedly said, "If you pay it back, you will definitely pay it back."
But my heart was trembling slightly.
Several men laughed and stared at Cao Zian like hungry wolves staring at their prey.
As soon as Mr. Qin and his group left, Cao Zian collapsed on the ground with a pale face.
After a cup of tea, he quickly got up and ran out.
In the house, Mrs. Cao fell unconscious on the ground. She wanted to be playful when Mr. Qin and a group of people came in. Mr. Qin thought she was noisy, so he knocked her out with a knife.
When Cao Zian left, she hadn't woken up yet.
……
Mrs. Cao was so angry with Cao Zian that she fell ill. As soon as Cao Zian left, she fell on the bed and couldn't find the energy to do anything.
After a long time, she called her personal nanny to discuss with her, "The Cao family's mother and son have evil thoughts. Find a few people and send them back to their hometown."
Grandma was stunned for a moment, then respectfully responded yes.
Mrs. Cao stood up, gave her three hundred taels of silver, and said, "Don't come forward and find a reliable person to handle this matter."
"Yes, ma'am."
Grandma took the money, said goodbye, and left the house.
Not long after, the maid came to report, "Cao Zian is here and wants to see Madam."
"Let him go away." Mrs. Cao said angrily, "From now on, the Cao family's mother and son will not be allowed to enter the gate of our Cao family. Whoever dares to let them in will be sent to Ren Yazi's hands."
The maid was so frightened that she quickly slipped out.
Cao Zian was beaten out by a group of boys. No matter how hard he knocked, the door of Cao's house never opened again.
He remembered that there was a dog hole in the corner of Cao's backyard.
"It looks like you can get into that dog hole." Cao Zian muttered to himself and hurried to the backyard.
After searching for a cup of tea, I found the dog hole. The dog hole was not big, just big enough for a child to get through.
Cao Zian was an adult, but he got stuck in the dog hole halfway through, unable to get in or back out. This made him so anxious that beads of sweat broke out on his forehead.
While he was struggling and twisting desperately in the dog hole, a boy ran towards this corner with his pants held up.
As soon as I took off my pants and was about to pee, I heard a voice, "Xiao Li, here, come and save me."
Xiaoli was so frightened that he held it back as soon as he peeed.
"Who? Who?" Xiao Li hurriedly pulled up his pants and walked over fearfully.
They saw Cao Zian's body stuck in the dog hole, with only one head exposed on the side of the dog hole.
"Cao Zian? What are you doing here?" Xiaoli glanced at him warily and took a few steps back, "You want to come in and steal something?"
As soon as the lady gave the order not to allow Cao Zian to enter the Cao family's gate, Cao Zian came to dig into the dog hole.
Who knows what he has in mind?
Xiaoli's eyes rolled and he ran away.
