Chapter 228 Door-to-door debt collection
Seeing that the visitor had ill intentions, Jiang Yuwei no longer cared about eating melon seeds and watching the show. She just slipped to the door while everyone was not paying attention, ready to run away at any time.
The big man who was in the lead stepped forward and kicked over the dining table in the yard.
"Ning Chunlin, you are really good. I heard that you have made a comeback."
Ning Chunlin saw who was coming and stood up tremblingly, bowed to the man and said:
"Brother Liu, what are you talking about? Why should I turn over?"
Seeing that Ning Chunlin was not behaving himself, Brother Liu stepped forward, grabbed him by the collar, and slapped him in the face, causing Ning Chunlin to see stars.
At this time, Xu Qianqian was also frightened by the man named Brother Liu in front of her. She didn't care about arguing with Sun at all and ran directly to hide behind Chen Guixiang.
Seeing this, Sun also hurriedly protected Ning Xin into the inner room.
Brother Liu threw Ning Chunlin to the ground, stepped on his face and cursed:
"You've become a young master in the palace, don't think I don't know. Pay me back the money you owe me, or I'll burn down your shabby house!"
Ning Chunlin begged for mercy upon seeing this:
"No, no, no, please forgive me, Brother Liu. I will sell everything I have to raise the money for you."
Chen Guixiang, who was standing by, became anxious when she saw her son being stepped on by someone, and hurried forward to slap Brother Liu's legs.
Seeing this, Brother Liu kicked Chen Guixiang to the ground. When Xu Qianqian saw Chen Guixiang being kicked upside down, she was so scared that she screamed and ran out.
Chen Guixiang seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly pulled Brother Liu's arm and begged:
"Don't hit my Chunlin, don't hit him. I have a way to get you some money. My eldest daughter-in-law has money. She opened a shop in town. She has plenty of money. She's here today. Go grab her and get the money!"
Chen Guixiang turned around and pointed to the place in the yard where Jiang Yuwei had just stood, but there was no sign of her. She was now panicked and looked around for Jiang Yuwei.
When Brother Liu saw Chen Guixiang's expression, he thought she was playing a trick on him again, so he kicked Ning Chunlin in the stomach.
He cursed:
"If you dare to play tricks on me, I will make your whole family suffer! Come on, smash it!"
The villagers who were watching the excitement outside did not dare to stay any longer and went home. Normally, Chen Guixiang was a whiny person. Over trivial matters, she would argue with her neighbors for half a day regardless of whether she was right or not. Now that something happened in her family, naturally no one was willing to lend a hand.
Chen Guixiang was also anxious when she saw this, and she knelt down in front of Brother Liu and said:
"Don't smash or hit my Chunlin yet. I'm going to get the money for you right now. Don't worry, I will definitely be able to get it back."
After saying that, he got up and ran hurriedly to the yard.
At this time, Jiang Yuwei had already returned to the courtyard and started to clean it up. After all, Ning Qiu was getting married tomorrow, and she would have to serve several tables of guests in her own courtyard, so she had to clean the yard thoroughly.
Jiang Yuwei was just about to fetch water to clean the stove when she saw Chen Guixiang running in breathlessly, grabbing Ning Huaizhi's arm and crying:
"Huaizhi, no, it's bad. The debt collectors are here. They said they want to burn down our house and beat your brother to death. You must save him!"
Jiang Yuwei couldn't help but feel strange when she saw this. It would be fine if she didn't know Ning Chunlin was the young master of the palace before, but now Chen Guixiang knew that Ning Chunlin was not her son, so why did she still protect him like this? Is Chen Guixiang so kind?
Just when Jiang Yuwei felt something was wrong, she saw Chen Guixiang actually kneeling down in front of Ning Huaizhi.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei quickly threw away the rag in her hand, took two steps forward and helped Chen Guixiang up, glared at her and said angrily:
"Didn't you spread the word that Ning Chunlin was the young master of the palace? If so, he is not our Huaizhi's brother. Why do you still come to our Huaizhi to care about his life or death?"
Chen Guixiang was so choked by Jiang Yuwei's remarks that she was speechless for a moment.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei continued:
"If you want to continue to be a sucker and pay off the debts of other people's sons, I won't stop you, but don't drag our family down with you. I told you, I gave you this money before, and I will never give you a penny more. Even if you say the sky is the limit today, my family still doesn't have the money!"
After saying that, Jiang Yuwei turned around and pushed Ning Huaizhi's wheelchair into the house.
Seeing this, Chen Guixiang followed behind and cried:
"Hey, you guys, you can't just stand by and watch him die, Huaizhi, he's your brother!"
At this time, Aunt Wang, who was serving Ning Zixuan in the side room, heard the noise outside and hurried out to check.
Chen Guixiang was slumped on the ground wiping her tears. When she raised her eyes, she saw Wang Ma coming out. She immediately came up with an idea.
Aunt Wang saw Chen Guixiang sitting on the ground and hurried forward to ask with concern:
"Mrs. Chen, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying for no reason?"
Seeing this, Chen Guixiang grabbed Wang Ma's arm tightly and cried:
"My eldest son is an unfilial son. Now that Chunlin is in trouble, he is not willing to lend a hand for my sake. It is because I did not educate my son well!"
After hearing this, Wang Ma's eyes widened and she asked anxiously:
"You mean something happened to the young master? What happened to him? He hasn't come back to the palace with me to recognize his relatives yet, so nothing can happen to him!"
Chen Guixiang pulled Wang Ma's arm and struggled to get up.
"Auntie Wang, to be honest, Chunlin owed some debts. Now the debt collectors came to our house and forced Chunlin to pay back the money. How can we, a farmer, raise so much money in such a short time? When they saw that we couldn't come up with the money, they arrested Chunlin..."
After hearing this, Wang Ma said anxiously:
"What did they do to the young master? Tell me quickly, are you trying to make me die of anxiety?"
Chen Guixiang wiped her tears and said:
"For ten taels of silver, they pinned Chunlin to the ground and beat him. Now he is unrecognizable!"
