"So much, no." Mrs. Gu immediately refused.

"Just your gray tofu, you can earn more money. Can't you even get five taels of silver? I don't believe it." Luo Hong sneered.

"I won't mention the cost of buying beans with gray tofu. The key is that renting a shop in the city is too expensive. We just help Chen Zhao earn some book fees. Otherwise, why would I be raising pigs to death if I earn so much money? Besides, my family has erected monuments for Qiao'er's father and her grandfather, and all the money I saved has been spent. You sell coffins, so you should know how expensive it is to erect monuments and build graves." Mrs. Gu naturally said to himself as poor.

Seeing that Gu Pozi's house had not been rebuilt, Luo Hong only built a small house for Chen Zhao, and he also thought about it.

In this rural family, who earned money was not built by big houses, or had to rectify the ancestral house, but the Gu Pozi family had no movement. I think it was really not earning much money, and all the money they earned was spent on this monument erected.

After thinking about it, he immediately said, "How much can aunt get?"

"Five hundred liters, there is no more." Mrs. Gu replied.

"Five Baiwen, Auntie, are you sending beggars?"

"This is the money my family sold food last year, and that's all that left!" Mrs. Gu immediately refuted.

"One or two, you have to make it together for me." Luo Hong raised his eyebrows.

“Not that much!”

"Auntie, five to one liang, I'm already considering you."

Mrs. Gu's face changed, "This is not a question of how much money it costs, it is really not that much money."

"What about Qiaoer's uncle? Didn't her uncle's family also make a lot of money?"

"Wait for me to ask." Mrs. Gu had no choice but to get up and walk towards Mei Huanqing.

When Mei Huanqing saw her coming, she immediately asked, "Aunt, what did Luo Hong say to you?"

"I want money." Mrs. Gu frowned.

"You want money? Did you agree?" Seeing that Luo Hong did not leave, Mei Huanqing made a prediction in his heart. Then he saw Mrs. Gu nodding, and he was immediately excited. "Aunt, there are one things to one, two things. Once the hole is torn open, I am afraid there will be trouble in the future."

"I know, I was stunned for a moment and was forced to no avail by him. I..." Mrs. Gu was obviously confused.

Mei Huanqing sighed, "Not you blame me, Luo Hong is a bad person. He can do his best to be shameless. We can't. Besides, he is still the uncle of Chen Zhao's brother and sister. We will suffer from him, and we will suffer any loss."

"Yes... he asked for five taels of silver. I told him that I only had five hundred cents, and he insisted on one tael. I am here to discuss it with you and then go into the house to get the money."

"Then you only give him five hundred quotas, don't take too much, and then tell him that I promised to borrow three hundred quotas, but I didn't bring my money today, so it will take a few days to get it. Then you drag him down and wait until he comes to ask, give him the three hundred quotas, so don't make him think the money is too easy to get." Mei Huanqing gave Mrs. Gu.

"This is a good idea." Mrs. Gu responded immediately.

She immediately entered the house and then went to get the copper coins.

After counting the copper coins, she thought about it, put down another fifty cents, then walked out the door and asked Gu Qiao to enter the house, and said a few words to Gu Qiao.

Gu Qiao looked at Gu Pozi in surprise, but still found paper and pen as she said, and wrote down an IOU of 800 cents.

Only then did Mrs. Gu put the IOU and the Copper Coins into her pocket and go out.

When she came to Luo Hong, she immediately pretended to look in the direction of the yard, then said to Luo Hong with her back to the direction of the yard, "I discussed with Qiao'er's uncle, and only said that I was short of money and asked him to lend me some money. His three boys were difficult to support. I finally pleaded with me and borrowed three hundred ci, which was a total of eight hundred ci."

"Eight hundred citations, isn't it a tael of silver?" Luo Hong was not satisfied.

Mrs. Gu took out the copper coins and said, "This is 450 cents. There is really no silver at home, so I can only raise so much first. As for his uncle, he doesn't have money on him today, and it will take a few days to get it."

"It's not five hundred people, why is this less? And Brother Mei, how many days will it take?"

"I said I could squeeze out 500 ci, but this is spring seeds immediately. Our family would also have to leave 50 ci for emergency. It costs money everywhere. You should also understand your aunt. As for his uncle, I borrow money, so I can't urge him too quickly. In short, what his uncle told me was that in a few days, he would definitely not break his trust in others' words."

Luo Hong snatched the copper coins in Mrs. Gu's hand and then responded: "Then I'll come and get the rest in a few days. I'll agree that 800 ci, and the remaining 350 ci will not be missing at that time."

This tone seemed to be what Mrs. Gu family owed him.

He was about to leave, but Mrs. Gu grabbed him, "Brother nephew, don't hurry to leave. This money is not for nothing. You have to press my IOU."

"What IOU." Luo Hong wanted to break free.

"It's okay if you don't sign it. It's not difficult to borrow and repay it. If you do this, I will fight to the death in the future and will never recognize your relatives."

Luo Hong frowned.

Mrs. Gu looked very determined.

Luo Hong thought to himself: If I sign me and don’t return it to you, you still have no choice.

Thinking of this, he immediately pressed his fingerprints with the red dye prepared by Mrs. Gu.

In this way, Mrs. Gu asked him to leave.

Gu Qiao hurriedly ran up, "Grandma, did he sign?"

"I signed it, I guess I don't have to pay it back." Mrs. Gu sighed.

"Once a person like Luo Hong tastes the sweetness, he will not be able to..." Gu Qiao was also quite worried in his words.

"I have been in charge of that IOU for more than a year. Now, I don't know how long it will take for these hundreds of cents?"

"I guess it won't be too long to worry about it. Hey, grandma, Luo Hong just pressed his fingerprints. Did he look at it?" Gu Qiao asked immediately.

"He should be literate, so he dared to sign with confidence." Mrs. Gu preached.

"No, last time he asked his uncle to read the IOU for him." Gu Qiao muttered.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I suspect he only knows numbers. If he comes to borrow money next time, can we exchange the IOU for documents such as severing relations?" Gu Qiao had a sudden inspiration and immediately suggested.

She thought to herself: She had to touch Luo Hong's bottom and put this matter into effect.

"This matter won't be done. We can't do such a thing!" Mrs. Gu is a decent person in her bones.

Gu Qiao curled his lips and said, "We can sign the document and keep it without issuing it. If Luo Hong is unrighteous and we are not kind in the future, then we will be defeated?"

"You child, others can be unrighteous, but we must be kind." Mrs. Gu scolded with a stern face.

Gu Qiao bulged his cheeks and didn't agree with it at all.
