Now, this is a good excuse to use.
Li Dashan knew the situation and glanced at Mr. Wang without revealing anything.
Although the mother-in-law asked for these things, it was a bit unreasonable, but it was understandable.
Since the second fan is determined to pay back the money, it doesn't matter if he agrees.
After hearing Wang's words, Li Dahe felt angry.
Li Guodong also felt gloomy.
Before Li Dahe was about to attack, Li Guodong reached out and pulled him again.
"Thank you uncle, uncle. I will write the words." He said immediately.
Li Dashan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Wang glared at Li Dashan and felt a little more relaxed.
“I don’t have pen and ink at home.”
"Let's do this. You and I will go to the Shen family's workshop tomorrow morning."
"When the papers are written, I will give you the money."
No one in their family is literate, so when they go to the workshop, they can ask Manager Wu to help them check so that they don’t make mistakes.
Li Guodong felt gloomy.
After enduring it, I finally agreed.
Immediately, Li Dahe quickly left with Li Guodong.
Wang also generously asked Li Dashan to go out and see him off.
After seeing everyone off, Li Dashan returned to the main room.
Seeing that Wang was still sitting, she couldn't help but complain.
"Guodong has agreed to establish a written certificate, and you still ask him to go to the workshop. It's a bit too much."
Wang immediately looked at Li Dashan.
Li Dashan lowered his head with guilt.
Wang was satisfied.
"Based on what Li Guodong and his second wife did back then, it's already good enough that I'm willing to lend him money."
"Believe it or not, the father and son came to borrow money and never thought about paying it back."
Li Dashan was startled.
I wanted to defend Li Guodong, but I thought for a while and didn't speak.
Wang sighed.
"Our family has saved some money recently, but next year we will build a house and prepare for Daya and Dabao's marriage."
"Although Da Ya is getting married, we still have to prepare a dowry for her. This way, the Wang family will not despise our Da Ya in the future."
"There is also Shuitian. His future wife is much younger than him. It's rare that the Wang family doesn't dislike him and is willing to marry their daughter over. We can't skip the bride price."
"Although our family is working in the workshop now, we can earn a lot every day. But we also have to take it easy."
"People, don't get carried away when you are proud. When you can make money, work hard to make more."
"If I can no longer make money in the future, with the wealth I saved previously, my life will not be the same as before."
Li Dashan nodded, feeling that what his mother-in-law said was reasonable.
I realized that I was a little drifting today.
Seeing that Li Dashan had listened, Mrs. Wang continued: "We are a family of four. We work hard from dawn to dusk and earn money. We don't even enjoy it ourselves, but we lend it to the second house."
"Then if Li Guodong really repented, it would be better if he could pay back the money in the future. If he doesn't pay back -"
Li Dashan's expression changed.
"If you don't pay back, I'll go to their house!" He said immediately.
Wang was amused. I am completely not angry with Li Dashan anymore.
"Okay, let's talk about this later."
"The kitchen has boiled hot water. Go get some. Let's wash up and go to bed early."
"oh."
The fourteenth day of the first lunar month.
Early in the morning, Li Guodong came to the Li family's main room.
Wang did not embarrass him and took him to the Shen family workshop.
Because the Shen family workshop had regulations that non-workers were not allowed to enter, so Wang arranged for Li Guodong to wait at the gate.
The door was open, so Li Guodong could see the situation inside and outside the workshop.
Li Guodong was amazed when he saw so many equipment and workers in the Shen family's workshop.
That little girl from the Shen family is really prosperous.
After looking at it for a long time, Li Guodong looked away and suppressed the greed in his heart.
He had just offended the Su family, and he might still be watched by the Su family. It was not appropriate to do anything at this time.
Just wait, wait until he goes to Luming Academy, passes the college examination, and gets scholar status.
This workshop and everything in the Shen family, including the little girl's skin, all belong to him.
After a while, Wang led Uncle Wu out.
Uncle Wu also held a small brush dipped in ink and a piece of paper in his hand.
Mrs. Wang introduced Uncle Wu to Li Guodong, and then introduced him to Uncle Wu, saying that Li Guodong was her husband's nephew.
Uncle Wu gave Li Guodong the pen and paper.
Li Guodong originally wanted to make some fuss about the IOU, but he heard that Uncle Wu was literate in writing and had been a Mongolian scholar, so Li Guodong did not dare to do anything wrong.
He wrote down the IOU in a regular manner, drew a postscript, and gave the IOU to Mr. Wang.
Wang showed the IOU to Uncle Wu, and was relieved when he saw Uncle Wu nodding towards her.
Then he collected the IOU and took out two taels of silver from his pocket and gave it to Li Guodong.
Li Guodong took the money, thanked him and left.
After Li Guodong walked away, Uncle Wu spoke to Mr. Wang.
"Madam once mentioned that this man's heart is evil. If you lend him money, I'm afraid it won't be possible to get it back."
Wang sighed.
"I didn't want to borrow it, but - well, luckily I only had two taels of silver and a written note."
"If he doesn't pay back then, I'll go to his house with my family. If he doesn't give it back, I'll give him something to pay for it."
Uncle Wu glanced at Mrs. Wang.
"I hope he keeps his word." He said and turned back to the workshop.
Shen Shuangshuang was in town and soon learned that Li Guodong had borrowed money from the Li family's house and that he was leaving Dahe Village for Huaiyang Town today.
"Uncle and auntie are still too soft-hearted." Shen Shuangshuang sighed.
"But it can be considered a progress. I didn't borrow more, and asked Li Guodong to issue an IOU."
Uncle Wu nodded.
"Okay, just leave this matter alone." Shen Shuangshuang said quickly.
It was a good thing that Li Guodong left Shangyang Town. At least she didn't have to worry that he would hide in secret and plot against her.
However, it's really not her style to wait for potential enemies to attack or attack her.
Although she didn't think Li Guodong could become a scholar, she didn't want to give him a chance.
In ancient times, transportation was inconvenient and there were many mountains and forests.
If there are many mountains and forests, it is easy for bandits to appear.
Although Murong had only wiped out the bandits in Yong County some time before the war, who can say for sure whether the bandits were completely wiped out?
Let Li Guodong die at the hands of "mountain bandits", and everything seems to be peaceful.
A coldness flashed across Shen Shuang's eyes, and he had an idea in his mind.
The next day.
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival.
The lights on the main street of Shangyang Town were several times brighter than usual.
Shen Shuangshuang fulfilled the promise he made to his son and mother-in-law in Dahe Village and took them to the streets.
The family walked from the west to the east of the city and back again.
We had a lot of fun guessing lantern riddles, buying candy figures, and eating candied haws.
After going home from shopping, Li Ling still looked full of excitement.
Shen Shuangshuang asked Wu Xia to send his son back to his room, and asked Aunt Zheng to send her mother-in-law back to her room, and then she also returned to the room.
After the newly purchased servants brought hot water, Shen Shuangshuang finished washing and went to bed.
Tomorrow, she has to do something big.
On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, it snowed heavily.
Shen Shuangshuang arranged things at home, went out early, and went to the west city gate to wait.
At about four o'clock in the morning, Li Guodong finally arrived. (End of chapter)
