Chapter 2: Not good! The bakery shop was smashed!(1/2)

Yuanzhou wiped his tears when he saw that Niannian was still there, and asked with a wry smile:

"Nian Nian, why are you crying again?"

Nian Nian pursed her lips and looked at Yuan Zhou aggrievedly.

"Dalang, have you forgotten?"

"Our family has been busy all year long, and we have saved a total of thirty-five copper coins, and we have spent them all in the past two days!"

Nian Nian saw that Yuan Zhou was still trying to make money for his family, and he muttered nonchalantly. His eyes would glance at Yuan Zhou from time to time, showing sadness and fear.

"We just helped our uncle get married two days ago. We spent a total of thirty guan to send him to the Baima Private School in the north of the city."

"Yesterday you suffered from anemia and broke your head. Considering that we are all neighbors, Mr. Li only accepted two hundred medical fees."

"The cost of medicine is an additional three hundred cents, so that's half the cost."

Niannian counted the accounts for Yuan Zhou with her fingers and persuaded her earnestly:

"No, we have to pay the rent tomorrow. We have to set aside three copper coins. We only have one and a half copper coins left in our hands."

"Da Lang, our family's wealth is about to be wiped out, so Da Lang, you must not play gambling anymore!"

As soon as Yuan Zhou saw Niannian's eyes filled with hatred, he felt something was a little wrong.

After hearing the word "play".

Yuanzhou quickly interrupted Nian Nian's chatter.

"etc!"

"Nian Nian, do you mean that I still play gambling?"

Nian Nian's expression was a little hesitant, but she still nodded.

"Da Lang has probably lost three to five copper coins in the past few months."

"Actually, I don't blame you either."

"It's Liu Lezi from the alley's house who dragged you into this. As long as Da Lang doesn't play gambling with Liu Lezi from now on."

Yuan Zhou felt a slight headache and rubbed his eyebrows.

Gambling was very popular in the Song Dynasty.

From the princes and generals to the common people.

Gambling in the Song Dynasty was called gambling.

It is something that is officially prohibited but is repeatedly banned by the public.

Yuan Zhou didn't expect that the body he occupied would be addicted to gambling. This was a bad habit!

"Nian Nian, don't worry!"

"I will definitely not gamble again in the future!"

Yuan Zhou's words haven't finished yet.

Urgent shouting came from outside the door.

"Yuan Dalang!"

"Miss you, little lady!"

"Something big happened!"

The mother-in-law who came to report the news looked panicked. Nian Nian saw the neighbors living in the alley and hurriedly went out to check.

"Aunt Cui, what happened?"

Nian Nian poured out a bowl of boiled water from Lianggan on the table, handed it to Aunt Cui who came to report the news, and bit her lip anxiously.

"Aunt Cui, please drink some water first, and then speak slowly..."

Aunt Cui took a couple of sips of cooked water from the beam, and then she calmed down a little, and said nervously:

"Miss Nian Nian, your cake shop has been smashed!"

"The old lady saw clearly that it was Liu Leizi who led his men to smash up the shop, and seemed to be talking about repaying debts and the like."

"Even Aunt Wang, who was looking after the shop for you, was beaten!"

Niannian was shocked.

"Aunt Cui, I'll go over with you and take a look!"

Yuan Zhou lay on the bed and heard the conversation between Niannian and Aunt Cui very clearly, so he quickly struggled to get up from the bed.

"Nian Nian, don't panic, I'll go with you!"

From ancient times to the present, people who want debts have been extremely evil people.

Yuanzhou can't let a little girl like Niannian face it, right?

Nian Beiqi bit her lip and hesitated:

"Dalang, why don't you go?"

"Mr. Li is asking you to rest!"

Niannian didn't want Yuan Zhou to show up.

Yuan Zhou has now lost his memory.

What should I do if I encounter any stimulation again?

The Yuan family's family has a small financial background, but they can no longer withstand the hardships!

"Nian Nian, I am a man!"

Yuan Zhou looked at Nian Nian with resolute eyes.

His facial features were naturally straight, and when he said these words, he was particularly convincing, which actually made Nian Nian's breathing quicken.

"Dalang..."

"Ouch!"

However, Yuan Zhou couldn't maintain his handsomeness for three seconds before he fell directly from the bed and stretched out his hand towards Nian Nian with a frown on his face.

"Nian Nian, come here and give me a hand!"

"I just lay down for too long and my legs are numb!"

Nian Nian smiled, helped Yuan Zhou and walked outside the house. After leaving his small yard, he arrived at Ping'an Lane where neighbors gathered.

The porters who were carrying lambs for sale greeted Yuan Zhou.

"Da Lang! Are you feeling better?"

A vendor carrying various beaded jewelry and setting up a stall joked:

"When you are free, Sir, go buy a beaded flower for Miss Nian Nian!"

Middle-aged women holding wooden basins and going to the Bianhe River to wash clothes in groups were whispering and chewing their tongues.

"I see that Liu Lezi is becoming more and more useless!"

"That's right! How can you deceive your neighbors like this!"

"I think Yuan Dalang is going to be tricked by Liu Lezi this time!"

"Poor little lady Niannian, she was born with such a mark, if she was really dragged out by Liu Lezi to pay off her debts, how could she be so lucky!"

The strong atmosphere of the market in Ping'an Lane made Yuanzhou turn his head in wonder. Is this the various aspects of life depicted in the "Along the River During the Qingming Festival"?

Yuan Zhou and others had just walked out of Ping'an Alley.

I saw a crowd of people on three floors outside the bakery shop. They all heard the noise and came to watch the excitement.

The people of Bianliang like to watch the fun.

But before the situation is understood, no one dares to rush to help. If you are not careful, you will be hurt.

Yuanzhou didn't have time to push aside the crowd.

Then I heard the cursing sounds of rogues.

And, the sound of Aunt Wang screaming.

The scoundrel who danced the most happily in the cake shop was wearing a green silk undershirt and had two black plasters on his head.

Who else could it be if it wasn't Liu Lezi?

"Aunt Wang!"

"I said you are still messing around at such an old age!"

Liu Lezi grabbed Aunt Wang’s hair and persuaded her hypocritically:

"You have the spare time to help Yuan Dalang look after the shop, so you might as well help me persuade Miss Niannian. She is lucky to be favored by Gao Yanei!"

"Why don't you go out and inquire about the hall? Our Gao Yanei is such a charming person. How many young ladies in Tokyo admire him!"
