Chapter 19 Debt Collection
There is still one third of the pheasant left, which will be eaten tomorrow morning.
There was some rice left in the pot. After all, Bai Jing cooked enough for her two uncles and aunts, so naturally they didn't finish it.
But it’s perfect to eat hot in the morning before going out.
The next day, the three younger siblings went to school again. Bai Jing looked for her mother but couldn't find her and realized that she had also gone to work.
Today, she didn't plan to go into the mountains. She was going to the old man Bai's house to collect debts. It was only natural to pay back debts.
After packing up a few things, Bai Jing put on a small bag and went down the mountain with joy.
When she walked to the stream at the foot of her mountain, she saw many people working in the fields looking at her.
In her previous life, she would definitely stand there and call out to everyone working here.
But now, if she says even half a word more, she will lose.
I was already strong yesterday, so I can't lose my momentum today.
After Bai Jing left, the people who were working started chirping one by one.
"Has this girl really changed her personality?"
"It looks like she does, but can she really be that strong for such a small person?"
It turned out that the news of Bai Jing kicking the tree hard and breaking it yesterday had spread throughout the team.
"Whether it's true or not, hurry up, there's going to be a good show."
"That's right, that's right. I'm almost done. I'll leave first."
"Aunt, if you don't want to join Wude, wait for me. I'll come back and do it later."
There is a good show to watch, who has time to talk here, it is better to go and see it live.
The old woman from the Bai family is not someone who is easy to bully. I don’t know if the two sides will fight, and whether the old woman will win again like before.
Everyone has curiosity.
Bai Jing naturally noticed the movement behind her, but what could she do? She was not afraid of being seen.
She is not afraid of being embarrassed, even if she is really embarrassed, it is not her.
What she didn't expect was that she would run into her second and third aunts as soon as she reached the main road.
"Aunt Second and Aunt Third, why are you here?" Bai Jing was surprised but also a little expectant. Thinking of what they said yesterday, her heart warmed.
"Xiao Jing, we're waiting for you here. We saw you coming down the mountain from a distance." Aunt Bai San came up to Bai Jing with a smile, "But you can't go alone. Your mother has a lot of work to do today and can't leave for a while. Don't worry, with Aunt San here, that old woman won't dare bully you. At worst, your Second Aunt and I can deal with her together."
They didn't see Bai Jingli kicking the tree in half yesterday, and even when they heard some rumors, they still couldn't believe it.
Early in the morning, their men told Xiaojing that if she really went, they should follow her and not let her suffer any loss.
"Thank you, Second Aunt and Third Aunt." Bai Jing felt very touched by their care and protection.
These two people helped her a lot in her previous life, but unfortunately, she couldn't stand on her own.
"We are not strangers, so why thank you? Let's go. I'm afraid that old man has just got up at this time." Aunt Bai's tone was full of sourness when she said this.
After all, every elderly person in every family earns their own food. She is the only one who is lucky enough to support herself with other people's money.
The two men surrounded Bai Jing and walked towards Old Man Bai's house.
Bai Zizhong was beaten yesterday so he took a leave of absence from work today. Anyway, his job was competing with the children in the team who didn't go to school, so it didn't matter whether he went or not.
The captain wouldn't care about him. It was just as well that he didn't go, saving work points.
Yesterday, he heard from his parents that the bitch Bai Jing wanted to take money from their family today, and naturally he was unwilling.
Look, after his father went to work, he was watching outside the house.
The Bai family lived in the center of the team, surrounded by six or seven families, including the captain's family.
Although the Bai family's house is close to the outside, it has its advantages. At least you can see at a glance whether there is anyone coming this way.
When Bai Jing's figure appeared on the road, he was so scared that he let out a howl and ran into his parents' house.
“Mom, mom, that bitch is coming with a group of people.”
Mrs. Bai was beaten pretty badly yesterday and is still recovering in bed.
I almost went blind after hearing my son’s howl.
"What are you yelling for? Go to the field and call your father and the captain over. Do you really want to give her the money?"
Mrs. Bai was also afraid. Her body was in so much pain. How could she do that? Naturally, she was unwilling to give it.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Bai Zizhong ran straight to where his father was from another path.
The autumn harvest is coming soon, and there is not much work to do in the fields. Apart from some rice fields on the mountains that require people to watch over them all day long, there is very little work to do in the surrounding fields.
Those who come from better-off families won't go too far.
Before Bai Zizhong could call people back, Bai Jing had already brought her second and third aunts to the Bai family.
A building with five wooden rooms appeared in their sight. Looking at the cement-paved yard and the wooden hanging building next to it, the three of them had tears in their eyes.
Such houses are rare in the entire village, which shows how much blood the old man and the old woman have sucked from their son.
"My house only has two rooms." Aunt Bai's face was distorted. She was jealous and even more hateful.
Aunt Bai's face was also not good. "My house only has three rooms, and the kitchen is built out of the bamboo pavilion at the back of the house."
Among the three families, Bai Jing's family has more houses, mainly because Luo Chunhua works too hard.
Bai Jing also felt jealous. She had not been here many times. As far as she could remember, she had been here less than once.
"Come out and pay me back." Bai Jing kicked the closed gate open. "I know someone is home. If you don't come out, I'll rush back in. If something gets rotten or lost, you can blame me for not calling for help first."
Just now, she saw the old woman Bai Pozi behind the window.
Even after Bai Jing shouted like this, the people in the house still didn't say anything. Bai Jing smiled meaningfully, "Aunt San, these chickens are quite fat. Let's catch two and take them back to nourish my brother and sister-in-law." She shouted deliberately in a loud voice.
Aunt Bai was very observant and immediately walked towards the chicken coop nearby. "Okay, catch a few more and we'll eat them together later. I don't know if there will be any eggs." She entered the chicken coop in just a few steps, and the hens immediately clucked.
Mrs. Bai couldn't bear it any longer.
"Stop, don't touch my chicken, don't touch my chicken." A figure rushed into the chicken coop like a ghost, and then Aunt Bai was pushed out.
These days, a hen’s butt is like a bank, and losing one is heartbreaking.
There are four people in the Bai family, so they can raise four chickens. In order to nourish her son's body, Mrs. Bai raised four hens, which can lay four eggs every day.
Naturally, she couldn't let Bai Jing and others ruin such a good thing.
Bai Jing crossed her arms and stared at the old lady in the chicken coop with an ambiguous expression, "Oh, you finally came out. I thought you were hiding someone in the bed."
"Bullshit, you bitch, stop talking nonsense. If you keep talking nonsense, I will tear your mouth apart." Mrs. Bai was no longer afraid at this time and immediately shouted and cursed.
"Pay back the money, Tiger Woman, don't forget what you promised me yesterday." Bai Jing did not forget the business and went straight to the point.
"Pay back the money."
