"Ouch, stop fighting!"
"Brothers, please do your best. If you beat me to death, I won't get any money!"
Shen Shaowen held his head to resist the rain of fists. He grimaced in pain. Seeing that the thugs in the casino were about to beat him to death, he had an idea and brought out his die to scare people.
"My brother-in-law is Ban Ya!"
"If you beat me to death, he won't let you go!"
When the thugs heard this, they immediately stopped their movements, with expressions of deep contempt that could not be concealed. They spat on the ground and sneered: "Banya is nothing, he can't even protect himself now, so he will still care about your bet." Brother-in-law?"
"Stop dreaming!"
"Either pay back the money, or chop off one of your hands to pay off the debt!"
Shen Shaowen's face turned pale with fright, and he stared blankly at the gleaming axe. His whole body shivered, and he peed in fear. He didn't care about his wet crotch, and struggled to kneel down and beg loudly for mercy.
"I don't want to be disabled."
"Please let me go...I promise to pay back the money. I will borrow it. I will borrow it from my sister. She will not ignore me..."
Cries of begging echoed through the alley.
Zhou Shilin glanced at it briefly and then looked away. It was his own fault. Once he got into this kind of thing, his family would be destroyed or his life would be destroyed. Seeing Wen Qian still looking in curiously, he turned her head around. , said in a low voice not to look.
"Aren't you afraid of nightmares at night?"
Wen Qian said she was not afraid.
"I'm very brave."
"So powerful, then who was crying and begging for mercy last night?"
Wen Qian: "..."
Not her anyway.
The two of them went back to the family home together.
This way.
Shen Shaowen also suffered enough beatings and limped to find Shen Xuening to find a solution. As soon as he entered the door, he was beaten so hard by Ban Ya that the pain made his eyes black and he almost fainted.
"Sister, brother-in-law, why do you hit someone?"
"Why?"
Banya's eyes were scarlet and he kicked him on the head.
"Just because your sister took my money and ran away, should I beat you? Damn it, you two brothers and sisters are more poisonous than the other. If you get involved, you will not end well. I will be so angry..."
Next, there was another violent beating.
When he came out of Banya's house, Shen Shaowen couldn't even stand steady. He held the wall and gasped for a long time. His eyes were full of shock and disbelief. Xue'er actually left. She just left him alone and ran away? !
He is her brother!
Two lines of tears welled up from Shen Shaowen's dry eyes. He sniffed and wiped them away hard. The girl was unreliable, so he could only try his luck with his ex-wife. Mian Mian was soft-hearted and would definitely not ignore him.
But after finding Xu Mianmian, all he got was two words.
"No money!"
An angry Shen Shaowen scolded her for being heartless.
"One day, a hundred days of kindness, how can you, a woman, be so heartless? Do you want to watch me be beaten to death?"
Xu Mianmian had a cold face.
"If you don't take the right path, you deserve to die on the streets one day!"
"If you're divorced, stop being disgusting and get out of here!"
Shen Shaowen almost exploded with anger.
He pointed at Xu Mianmian and said, "You must be ruthless before leaving." He turned around and went to find Xu Mianmian's elder brother. With the mentality that it would be difficult for me and everyone else, he lured Brother Xu into the casino.
Brother Xu is just a street kid.
I idle around all day with nothing to do. After winning a few games in the casino, I feel like I am the chosen gambling king. I want to rely on gambling to reach the top of my life. Little do I know that this is all the casino's routine.
Give me some sweetness first.
Only when you get carried away and bet bigger and bigger will you start to close the net...
***
The twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month.
Wen Qian and Zhou Shilin made three hundred dumplings filled with pork and green onions, steamed two large pots of vegetable stuffed dumplings, and steamed a large pot each of red bean paste buns and steamed buns. These were the rations for the first month. , until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there will be no more staple food.
Not afraid of damage anyway.
It's freezing outside and there's a big natural refrigerator.
In addition, they also fried meatballs, hairtail fish, steamed pork belly, and stewed hard dishes such as elbows and ribs. Wen Qian also specially fried twists and hemp leaves to share with the sisters-in-law who got along well in the family yard.
All day long.
The fragrance in her house never stopped, not only the children next door were so greedy that they cried, but even the adults were so greedy that they swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva. Of course, there were also people who said mean things behind their backs.
Among them is Lin Xiang's sister Lin Jiao.
She was not married yet, and she disliked the fact that her parents-in-law and her sister-in-law were quarreling all day long, so she came to Lin Xiang's place to get some peace and quiet, while also helping to cook some food during the Chinese New Year and take care of her two nephews.
At this moment, I smell the fragrance.
Listening to the crying of the two nephews, she felt unhappy. She threw down the knife in her hand and rushed out. Lin Xiang was so frightened that she grabbed her and didn't understand what made her suddenly angry.
"You can throw a knife properly without fear of cutting your hand."
Lin Jiao frowned so hard that she could kill a fly and said angrily: "Whose prodigal old woman is this? She only knows how to eat all day long, and she makes so much food without fear of being stuffed to death. She has the nerve to eat alone. We are all neighbors, why don't we see her? Give everyone a little to try!"
As he spoke, he swallowed his saliva unconsciously.
Lin Xiang was helpless.
She is the youngest girl in the family. She has been pampered to a lawless extent since she was a child. When she grows up, she becomes even more ruthless and unreasonable. Seeing her like this makes her worried. Even her sisters can't stand it. No man will dare to marry her home in the future.
The key is that people have high standards.
I looked at a lot of people, but I couldn't like any of them.
Afraid that her sister would cause trouble, she could only comfort her in a low voice.
"Don't worry about others. We have also made a lot of delicious food at home. Listen to my sister, don't find trouble during the Chinese New Year. Each house is in another house. No one can control anyone behind closed doors."
"Whatever you want to eat, sister will cook it for you."
Lin Jiao rolled her eyes with a huff.
"I want to eat big elbow, sauced pork ribs, roast chicken and goose, braised pork..."
Lin Xiang hurriedly shouted stop.
"Your request is too high, and I can't satisfy it. Okay, hurry up and chop the stuffing. Eat a few more dumplings when they are ready."
"My hands are sore."
Lin Jiao snorted and took her two nephews out to play. As soon as she left the house, she saw a tall and tall figure. Her heart suddenly beat like a deer. She grabbed her eldest nephew and asked, "Who is that person?" Who?"
"Captain Zhou."
The child was just thinking about playing, so he replied casually and ran away.
Lin Jiao was left alone, stunned, looking at Zhou Shilin's back, her eyes filled with fascination, that there was such a man in the world, and that such a man was the other half she longed for.
This way.
Zhou Shilin knocked on the door of the instructor's house and presented Wen Qian with fried goods.
"This is all done by girl Qianqian?"
Du Chunfeng was pleasantly surprised. He kept praising Wen Qian for his cleverness and dexterity. He also specially packed a bowl of crispy pork for Zhou Shilin to take home. Then he went to the kitchen to get busy, leaving the instructor to talk to Zhou Shilin.
"It will be twenty-four after the New Year."
"The old chief is waiting for his great-grandson. You have to hurry up and don't let the old chief wait too long."
The old chief is Zhou Shilin's grandfather.
The Zhou family's Dinghai Shenzhen, the old man is a veteran who has been on the battlefield and fought hard all the way. He has made countless military exploits. When he is approaching his old age, he has a wish to meet the next generation as soon as possible, but this wish has not been fulfilled.
Also very helpless.
Zhou Shilin was not anxious at all.
"My daughter-in-law is only 19 after the Chinese New Year. I heard that giving birth too early is very harmful to the body. I don't want her to suffer so early. Besides, she is busy enough with her clothing business and she will take the college entrance examination and go to university next year. , I can’t spare the time to have a baby, and no one will take care of me after the baby is born.”
The instructor was surprised.
"Your wife still wants to take the college entrance examination? Is that possible?"
Zhou Shilin glanced at the instructor and was quite confident in Wen Qian.
"Even if you don't pass the exam next year, there will still be a year after that. We are still young, unlike you who are about to have grandchildren."
Instructor: "..."
Heartbroken.
As soon as the Chinese New Year comes, I have aged another year, but as for such a roundabout reminder, this brat is really too much.
After coming out of the instructor's house, Zhou Shilin was walking home with crispy meat in his hand, when a young girl suddenly walked over to him.
