There was a loud knock on the door. Li Chunping and Zhang Hongxia stood tremblingly at the door, listening to the noise at the outer door but not daring to open the door.
"Damn it! Why are you pretending to be dead!" Someone cursed impatiently, raised his legs and kicked the door a few times.
Li Chunping was so frightened that he clutched his heart and trembled.
"We can't get into that courtyard, how can we be stopped here?"
"Boss, I can see clearly that there is someone inside! No, let's remove this door! No matter what, we will make Yan Zhen pay back the money! If she doesn't pay, we will remove one of the people inside!"
Hearing the conversation, there were quite a lot of people outside. Li Chunping covered his heart and became weak with fear. Zhang Hongxia hid behind Li Chunping, thinking about how to escape.
They say hooligans act like hooligans, what should I do?
"People inside, listen to me. We can go in if we want. There are many ways. If you open the door now, we can still discuss it!"
"Otherwise, when our brothers come through the door, you will have a hard time!"
As soon as the words fell, there were several impatient knocks on the door.
"Hey, can't you lower your voice?" The voice was so loud that it felt like the earth was shaking.
Zhang Hongxia's whole body was shaking like a sieve, "Mom, if it doesn't work, open the door quickly! Open the door, let's have a good talk, just say that the store is not ours, we are just the janitor, let them let us go."
They had spent half their lives in the countryside and had never seen such a battle before. Li Chunping held his heart that was about to jump out of his throat and said in confusion: "Then let's start?"
She had no ability to think, so she could only follow Zhang Hongxia's wishes and open the door tremblingly.
She pulled the latch while chanting the Jade Emperor Guanyin Bodhisattva.
As soon as the latch was pulled all the way, Li Chunping immediately took a few steps back, fearing that someone who came in would hit her.
The door opened with a clang, and the person leading the door was tall and thick, with a bald head and a sinewy face. The people behind him were also tall and strong men.
In particular, there was a man with a scar on his face, his eyes raised, and his brows furrowed, like a biting leopard.
After just one glance, Li Chunping covered his heart with his hand again, and was so frightened that he almost couldn't breathe.
They just have the word "bad guy" written on their faces.
"You!" Scarface pointed at Li Chunping and said, "Are you Yan Zhen's mother? We brothers have already inquired about it, so don't say it's not the case."
Li Chunping opened his mouth, but before the words came out, his cry came out first, "Yes——"
"But we had nothing to do with Yan Zhen before, really!" Zhang Hongxia said in a hurry: "We didn't have a good relationship with Yan Zhen. We originally wanted to fight against the autumn wind!"
"So we don't know anything about her and you! We don't know anything and can't do anything to help!"
This person was Lin Hui's childhood friend. When Zhang Hongxia said this, she couldn't hold back her words. She sneered and said, "Then you guys are really inhuman. Kissing your own daughter and sister is so cruel!"
Li Chunping and Zhang Hongxia didn't have the guts to contradict each other, so they could only nod their heads, "Yes, yes, we are not human beings!"
"So if you are in debt, you should go to Yan Zhen to resolve it! If you owe money, you have to go to the person involved."
"Yes, we are innocent! I raised her so big and didn't get any benefit at all. How can there be any reason to repay her debt?"
Zhang Hongxia and Li Chunping glanced at each other. Zhang Hongxia turned her head and winked. Li Chunping understood. They supported each other and slowly moved towards the door while talking.
Just as he was about to walk to the door, the scarred man waved his hand and said, "Close the door."
The door slowly closed in front of them, and their hopes were dashed.
Scarface rolled up his sleeves and shouted, "Do you think you can escape under our noses?"
"Who do you think our brothers are?" Scarface pointed at his eyes, "Are you blind?"
Then he waved his hand and said: "Come, let us aunt and eldest sister sit down, let's have a good chat."
After receiving his order, four people came up from behind and immediately picked up Li Chunping and Zhang Hongxia.
"Don't! Don't!" Zhang Hongxia slapped her feet and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Brother! Don't! I beg you!"
She looked like she was about to be hit by something like that.
Scarface and several brothers were stunned.
"No, eldest sister." Scarface couldn't help laughing, "Are you thinking too much?"
"We brothers just want money and nothing else."
A buddy next to him answered directly, "Sister, the wrinkles on your face are almost as big as those of my grandma. We just want money, can you please don't insult us like this? It's not like we don't pick and choose."
Zhang Hongxia was pinned down on a chair. She thought about what the two people said, and the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
Is she that old?
I don't know when Scarface took out a folding knife from his pocket and played with it in his hand, changing patterns with "swish, swish", which dazzled everyone who saw it.
"You also know that your daughter owes us a lot of money." Scarface suddenly put away the knife and stopped.
Li Chunping's heart seemed to have stopped, thinking, will he insert a knife into her heart in the next second?
Li Chunping raised his hand to cover his heart and asked in horror: "You, what do you want to do?"
"I can tell you, murder is against the law! You must die!"
"Hey, you know the law quite well. Then tell me, is it natural to pay back debts?" The scar-faced man pressed his wrist down, and the knife swished against Li Chunping's arm and nailed it to the table.
Li Chunping's eyes widened and he didn't react at first, but then he said "Ah——" and his whole body was so frightened that he almost twitched.
Zhang Hongxia shivered like chaff, not even daring to look up, so she closed her eyes and began to recite Amitabha.
The brothers looked at each other. Are they really that scary? They thought they were quite amiable and didn't even show any cruelty, so they were so scared? Then they really know how to act.
Thinking of this, several people couldn't help but feel proud and even joined in the fun.
Someone banged his hand on the table and said viciously: "Your daughter still can't pay the money, why don't you do it for her?"
"I don't believe it. You don't have a penny on you?"
He stretched out his hand directly in front of Li Chunping and said viciously: "Hand it over!"
Naturally, Li Chunping took some money with him when he went out. As the saying goes, a poor family has a rich life, and people don't know what they will encounter outside, so Li Chunping took two hundred with him.
Two hundred is a lot of money these days.
Li Chunping cried and said: "Take it, take it! Don't kill me!"
After saying that, she stood up. Everyone thought she was going to get the money, but she reached out tremblingly while crying.
Li Chunping sewed a pocket on his underwear and put all the money in it. He cried loudly and reached out to take out all the money.
Scarface looked at the money on the table, pretending to be disgusted and said, "That's it?"
"Do you know how much your daughter owes us?"
"Ten thousand! You only have less than two hundred, which is not even enough to fill the gap between your teeth!"
"Tell me, how can I pay it back?" Scarface pulled out the knife that was stuck on the table and gestured, "Do you have the land deed?"
"Where's the house deed? Otherwise, how about one thousand for one arm, two thousand for one leg, and one thousand and fifty for one eye?"
"You two, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, add them all together and calculate, it's almost enough. It's enough to pay back."
Li Chunping and Zhang Hongxia were immediately frightened and waved their hands——
"We really have no money! All the money is here!"
"Yan Zhen is rich, really rich! Her man is an army officer, how can he not have money?"
Scarface sighed, "Don't you think this is making things difficult for us?"
"It's not easy to do this kind of thing during the day. There are so many people outside watching. Let's do it at night."
The two brothers looked at each other, and the scarred face was full of embarrassment, "You also know where Ren Yanzhen lives. There are soldiers standing guard at the door, and we can't even get in."
"So, after finally waiting for you, do you think we can let you go?"
Scarface smiled and raised the knife again.
Li Chunping closed his eyes tightly and shouted: "Don't! Don't kill me!"
"You can't find her, but I can!"
"I'll call her over to see you! Let me go!"
