"Xiu'er, you think too simply about them. How can they be so easy to deal with? They are all desperate criminals. Not to mention you, even the county magistrate is probably helpless against them."
Mother Jane also has some understanding of these things.
The county magistrate only judged cases, and these people did not cause any casualties.
As they say, it is only natural to pay back debts.
Even if it is the county magistrate, they have some reason.
Besides, they really can't afford to pay back the money now.
"Mom, don't worry! I'll be waiting here to settle the score with them."
Hearing this, Jane's mother became even more frightened.
The settlement she mentioned for Jian Xiu was the settlement of the principal and interest owed by them.
If that was the case, she didn't even know if she would be able to bear it when she knew the answer.
At that time, due to Qian Hongmei's health, they were in urgent need of ginseng, so they had to borrow twelve taels from them.
And all they have to pay back is some interest.
Moreover, only a small part of the interest has been paid back. If we really want to calculate it now, I don’t know how they will do it?
Mother Jane is even ready to pay off the debt for a lifetime.
But now her daughter said she wanted to settle accounts with them, which forced her to face reality.
However, Jane's mother didn't know that the settlement that Jane Xiu was talking about was completely different from what she had in mind.
When everyone in the family had eaten and drunk their fill, Qian Hongmei brought the medicine from the pot.
Then he carefully fed Jian Ming the food.
And Jian Xiu fed Jian's father.
Jian Xiu's injury was not that serious. After all, it was mostly due to her weak body.
It was different for Jian Ming. The man with the scar kicked him hard several times.
Sure enough, Father Jian woke up soon after drinking the potion.
Jian Ming also drank the potion, but he still didn't wake up.
But his face was not as pale as before.
Seeing this, Jian Xiudang breathed a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, I really need to take him to Renhe Hall.
The first thing Mr. Jian did when he woke up was to ask about the situation at home, as if he had not noticed the mess in the house.
Obviously, he was used to these things.
"Dad, this is white porridge, freshly cooked, and now it's cooled down. You should drink it quickly!" Qian Hongmei handed the porridge in her hand to Father Jian and said.
"Okay, okay, this time, don't make the porridge so thick, so that you can have two more meals."
Before drinking, Father Jian was still nagging.
After everyone in the family had finished drinking, Jian Xiu discovered that Qian Hongmei had not yet started drinking.
A closer look revealed that her face was filled with sorrow.
"Sister-in-law, go eat! Try that fern!"
"How can I eat? Sister Fen has been captured by them, and I don't know what her current situation is."
Speaking of this, Qian Hongmei couldn't help crying.
"What? What did you say? You said Sister Fen was taken away by them?" Jian Xiu asked in a deep voice.
Things have come to this point and we can no longer hide it.
Qian Hongmei nodded immediately and said, "They said that they would arrest Sister Fen first. If they still can't raise the money by then, then even...even..."
"Even what?"
"Even Jie Jie will be taken away with us!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Qian Hongmei burst into tears.
"Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry. Since they said that, Sister Fen will be fine for the time being. Don't worry, I'm here for you." Jian Xiu said calmly.
Qian Hongmei and the others didn't take Jian Xiu's words to heart, because she was just comforting them.
Only Zhang Xuan, who was standing aside, never took his eyes off Jian Xiu after hearing what she said.
She said that they all went through devilish training to become high-level agents.
That means her martial arts must be good.
Now that she thought about it, she was indeed right. He should have known it from the way she dealt with Old Liu so easily.
She just picked up a few small heads at random, but she always hit the target.
It can be seen that her martial arts are not bad.
Even very high, because ordinary martial artists simply can't do what she does.
After everything was cleaned up, Qian Hongmei hurriedly walked next door carrying the pot she had just borrowed from Zhang Xuemei.
Obviously, she was going to return the ceramic pot to Zhang Xuemei.
Jian Xiu was very puzzled. It was just a pot. Logically speaking, Zhang Xuemei was not a petty person.
Besides, it's not time for meals yet, why is Qian Hongmei so anxious to return it?
Also, when she came back from borrowing the pot just now, although she was holding the pot in her hand, her expression clearly looked strange.
If she guessed correctly, something must have happened in Zhang Xuemei's home.
Jian Xiu thought to herself: It's true that every family has its own problems.
She had also lived with a mother-in-law like Old Liu, and with a little thought, she roughly understood Zhang Xuemei's current situation.
After returning the pot, Qian Hongmei came back and felt neither able to stand nor sit. She was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
"Sister-in-law, believe me, I said it will be okay and it will be okay."
"I'm fine, but I'm worried about Sister Fen. When the scarred man grabbed her, she cried so hard that her lungs broke. I feel like a really incompetent mother like me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jian Ming on the bed woke up slowly.
The first thing he did after opening his eyes was to look for his eldest daughter.
"Sister Fen...hiss..." He didn't know if it was because the wound was pulled, but he gasped in pain.
"Jian Ming, are you awake? Are you okay? Where does it hurt?" Qian Hongmei asked anxiously.
Jian Ming took a breath and didn't dare to move anymore because he could smell the medicinal herbs in his mouth.
It was obvious that his family had spent money to hire a doctor because of his injury.
He knew the current situation at home very well. If he wanted to hire a doctor, he would probably have to pay on credit.
If you move around at this time and accidentally tear the wound, you will have to take a lot of medicine.
After a moment's rest, he said softly, "I'm fine, don't worry, what could possibly happen?"
Jian Ming tried to speak to Qian Hongmei in the calmest tone possible, not wanting her to worry about him anymore.
Before the two of them could say a few words, they heard cursing sounds outside.
Hearing this voice, Qian Hongmei was suddenly embarrassed.
As soon as she heard the sound, she knew it must be Zhang Xuemei's mother-in-law, Old Li, scolding them.
Just now when she went to return the pot, she happened to be there, and she caught her and started scolding her.
