Godly Farmer Doctor: Arrogant Husband, Can’t Afford to Offend! - Chapter 429
Chapter 429: Credit
Bai Erzhu was shocked. He didn’t think that his elder brother and sister-in-law would be so shameless, that they will steal the only ration left in their family… …
Mrs. Zhang pounded her chest, she really wants to run back home and fight with Mrs. Liu. That woman was the most lawless evil she had ever met.
Bai Erzhu doesn’t know what to do at the moment, he looked at Mrs. Zhang in the eyes and said: “Now what do we do? If we continue starving, I’m afraid we won’t be able to work tomorrow.”
Mrs. Zhang thought for a while and then said, “Let ’s finished our work today. At night, I will go to Bai Zhi and ask if we can borrow some rice, and then just deduct it to our wages.”
When Bai Zhenzhu heard of this, she had an unpleasant feeling in her heart. She was very angry. In the past, whenever Bai Zhi was in front of her, she looks no different from any girl in the mountain, so who would think that in just a few months, she will completely lose this identity?
Her father and mother have to work for Bai Zhi to earn money. Not to mention, they have to rely on the rice she will give to live.
But what else can they do? What’s more important in this world than to live?
Bai Zhenzhu said: “Niang, what get some rice? If we take it at home, they will just steal it again. I am alone at home, I can’t stop them!”
Mrs. Zhang replied: “I also thought about this, let’s not take the rice at home. Let’s take it to my second brother’s house. Our family will eat there until we finish our work here.”
Bai Erzhu repeatedly nodded his head: “This is a good idea. Okay, let’s do it.”
Bai Zhenzhu didn’t go back, she simply looked for a cool place to rest nearby. She waited for her father, mother, and younger brother to finish their work. And then return to the village together.
When she saw her father and mother going to Bai Zhi to borrow rice, Bai Zhenzhu couldn’t accept it, so she pulled her younger brother’s arm to go to her second uncle’s house, and just wait there for them.
Bai Zhi was preparing for dinner, when she heard that Bai Erzhu came again, she let Zhao Sue manage it and came out.
Zhao Lan and Mrs. Zhang were talking when Bai Zhi arrived. She came forward and then asked: “Is there something wrong?”
When Mrs. Zhang saw Bai Zhi, she dryly smiled: “Well, I shouldn’t bother you, but we can’t help it anymore. While we working in the fields, the first branch took advantage of it and stole our remaining rice. They stole it and ate all of it. We’ve been hungry for the day, we haven’t eaten anything yet, so we can’t help it. That’s why, I thought to borrow some rice, you can deduct it to our wages. You can rest assured, we will finish everything and do a good job. We finished 1 acre of the field today, tomorrow we will finish the rest.”
Bai Zhi looked at Mrs. Zhang’s clothes. When she came this morning, her clothes and pants were clean. But now, she was covered with dirt and looked very tired. Bai Erzhu was the same. It seems they did work in the fields.
Bai Zhi smiled and nodded her head: “Okay, how many? I’ll lend you some.”
Mrs. Zhang didn’t expect that things will go smoothly. She thought she needs to explain more: “You agree?”
Bai Zhi nodded her head: “Of course, you have plowed 1acre of field. You already earn 1 silver coin. As long as you ask for less than 1 silver coin, I can lend it to you.”
The couple looked at each other, they were both happy. Mrs. Zhang immediately said: “It’s not much, just give me 2 liters of rice.”
Bai Zhi didn’t say another word. She turned around and went to the kitchen. She first took 2 liters of rice. After thinking for a while, she also added 2 pounds of noodles. Then, she wrapped and put the remaining moon cakes from yesterday’s Mid Autumn Festival, and then went outside to give them to Mrs. Zhang.
Mrs. Zhang saw the things in Bai Zhi’s hands: “This, this, these things—“
