Chapter 367 Prejudice

I just evaded the question and hurried home on the ox cart.

When Hu Da heard Zhuang Qingning say this, he became more and more anxious. He stopped Zhuang Qingning and tried his best to explain, "Boss Zhuang, I know you must be angry at us for not learning our lesson after seeing us like that, but this matter is really not what you think."

I'm sorry, it doesn't matter to her whether you study well or not. She is thinking about the ox cart now.

"I just said, anything is fine. I'm in a hurry, we can talk about it later." Zhuang Qingning's raised eyebrows fell down and turned into a frown.

This is not like anything is fine, this is just anger.

And he was still angry.

Hu Da was getting more and more uneasy, and he hurriedly said, "Manager Zhuang, don't be angry. Listen to my explanation. It's not that we are stubborn and don't want to cause trouble or ask for money..."

Zhuang Qingning watched the man driving the ox cart farther and farther away.

Bullock cart...

car……

Completely disappeared from his sight.

Zhuang Qingning could only retract his gaze and focus it on Hu Da in front of him.

With a bit of annoyance.

If you miss the bus, you have to pay for it! Hu Da was startled, fearing that Zhuang Qingning would get angry and give him another beating. He spoke faster, "Boss Zhuang, to be honest, this guy is a scoundrel. His family is well off, but he borrowed money from other people and put it in the bank to earn interest."

"When others asked him to pay back the money, he lied and said he had no money and refused to pay it back. Now, his cousin's child is sick and he has no money to see a doctor, so he wants the money back, but he refuses to give it. His cousin is at a loss, so he entrusted the matter to us and asked us to help get the money back."

"Originally we didn't want to take on this kind of thing, because we remembered what Shopkeeper Zhuang said before, that the three of us had already retired and would not do this kind of thing again, but that man cried and said that if we didn't have money to see a doctor, the child's illness wouldn't be cured, and he was afraid that he would develop a chronic illness."

"We three brothers felt that the man was really pitiful, and we also thought that if we did this, it would be a good thing, so we agreed to it, so..."

"Yes, that person also said that if we can help get the money back and cure the child, he would treat us to a good meal and let the child recognize me as his godfather. I am not married, so I can't be a godfather. I didn't agree to this. He just said that if we can help get the job done, he would just give us two taels of wine."

"If Manager Zhuang doesn't believe it, just follow us to that person's house and ask him and you'll know."

After Hu Da finished explaining, he looked at Zhuang Qingning eagerly, afraid that she would not believe what he said.

Hu Er and Hu San on the side also nodded hurriedly to prove that what Hu Da said just now was true.

"I see." After hearing this, Zhuang Qingning's anger over not catching the bus dissipated a lot.

In other words, the three Hu brothers did a good thing.

Putting aside other things, this good deed is still worth encouraging.

"Well done." Zhuang Qingning nodded slightly.

Hu Da's face was filled with surprise at first, and then with joy. The joy jumped out of his eyes and almost turned into tears.

Shopkeeper Zhuang praised him. Oh my God, Shopkeeper Zhuang actually praised him.

"Nothing, nothing." Hu Da was a little excited, "It's all as I should do."

"That's it..." Zhuang Qingning paused, "You chased me just now just to say this?"

"Ah, yes." Hu Da nodded vigorously. "I was afraid that Shopkeeper Zhuang might have misunderstood me, so I explained it to him to avoid any prejudice against us three brothers."

bias?

Does it matter whether she is biased or not?

Zhuang Qingning looked at the three brothers in front of him with some confusion.

But when she saw the three of them looking at her, with a serious and cautious look on their faces, and excited because she believed in them, she sighed helplessly in her heart, and a strange feeling arose.

It seems like this...is not bad?

At least, from now on, there will be three fewer bullies who will do anything to get what they want after receiving money, and three more normal people in this town. It seems to be a good thing both for himself and for the town.

Zhuang Qingning looked at Hu Da and the others for a while and asked, "What do you three do on weekdays?"

"What?" Hu Da was stunned for a moment and scratched the back of his head subconsciously.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

How to answer this...

Hu Er at the side interrupted, "I had breakfast this morning, and then I took on this job. I just finished. Yes, the buns we had in the morning were vegetarian. The ones with meat fillings were a bit expensive, so my brother couldn't bear to buy them. I had noodles at noon, but they had a few slices of pork liver. The pork liver wasn't tasty either. I guess it was left over from the butcher shop yesterday, and my brother bought it because he wanted to save money..."

"Stupid! Manager Zhuang didn't ask what we were going to do today." Hu San couldn't help but say.

"You're asking about yesterday? The weather was not very good yesterday. It was a little cloudy and it rained a little. We stayed at home and didn't go out. We didn't eat well. We only had two meals..."

Zhuang Qingning, "..."

"What do you do for a living?" Zhuang Qingning asked in a different way.

"Well, I didn't do anything." Hu Er replied.

"Nothing?" This time it was Zhuang Qingning's turn to be surprised, "Then where does the money you usually use come from?"

"This is a long story..."

Hu Da put down the hand that was scratching the back of his head, "My parents passed away early, my uncle's family is overbearing, and my grandparents don't speak for us three brothers. We didn't get any land or food from the family. They just asked us to work for my uncle's family. The more work we did, the more food we got."

"When we were young, we three brothers were young and ignorant. We worked for food and it was no big deal. But as we grew older, we realized that this was not right. We did a lot of work but got little food. It was better to work outside so that at least we could fill our stomachs."

"The three of us decided to go out and work for others. We found a dock and lived there. We worked hard to move and unload goods for others. Although the money we earned was not much, it was enough to fill our stomachs. If we were more diligent, we could save some."

"My life was fine, but that night after work, I went to the town to eat wontons to fill my stomach. I ran into a scoundrel who was bullying the granddaughter of a wonton stall. There were a table of people eating wontons, but no one stood up. I couldn't stand it, so I reached out and beat the guy up. The wonton stall had a black eye and a swollen face."

"I thought he would be beaten up, because he was guilty of doing such a dirty thing and would not dare to make it public. But the next day, he led people to the dock to find me, and there were also a few yamen runners. It turned out that he was the brother-in-law of some patrol inspector, and he was arrogant and domineering on weekdays."
