Chapter 3125 Missing a chapter above

As soon as the knife was removed, Uncle Wu rushed to the side, far away from them. His hands and feet were too weak to exert any strength, so he simply crawled forward on all fours, and his friends immediately pulled him. Uncle Li Shi far away...

Seeing that Uncle Wu was so embarrassed, the crowd laughed. Uncle Wu's face became even redder, and he pointed at Uncle Shi who was about to scold, when Zhou Lizhong stepped forward quickly, grabbed him and said with concern, "Uncle Wu, your neck is bleeding. already."

Uncle Wu subconsciously reached out and touched his neck, one hand was wet, and when he took it out, there was blood in his palm, and he would faint if he rolled his eyelids.

However, Zhou Lizhong held his hand and pressed his thumb hard on his tiger's mouth, making him hold on, and he didn't faint.

He leaned closer and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, Uncle Wu, this is not an important injury, don't see a lot of blood, it's actually just a cut of the flesh, go to the pharmacy and apply a pack of medicine, and it will scab in two days. Yes. It's just..."

His voice was even lower, and he whispered in his ear, almost no one heard except the two of them, "Why does Uncle Wu compete with people like Uncle Shi? He is a gambler, and he has a family with four walls, and he has reached a dead end. If you force him at this time, are you not afraid that he will die? You must know that people who gamble to the point where their family business is ruined are originally desperados..."

Uncle Wu's expression changed, and he didn't speak.

The fox friends standing on the side were a little impatient when they saw them whispering together, and asked, "Brother Wu, are you going to report to the county yamen? Should I send someone to report to the yamen?"

The shopkeeper of the restaurant, who had been hiding behind the crowd, was a little anxious. He kept stopping everyone from letting them report to the yamen, because once they reported it, it would be difficult for him to explain, and even the restaurant would be closed for a few days.

In his opinion, the two are in-laws, so what can't be discussed? Why bother to fight against each other, and then to the yamen?

Wu Dalang quietly glanced at Uncle Shi, and he didn't dare to provoke him. The person in front of him was right. Now Shi Dalang is barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes.

"Don't report it, let him go!"

Hu friends and dog friends were stunned for a moment, but they didn't expect him to let Uncle Shi go.

Uncle Shi raised his eyes and glanced at them with the knife, then turned and left.

Zhou Lizhong followed and said to the onlookers, "Don't watch it, don't watch it, it's just a conflict with my brother-in-law, it's no big deal."

When Uncle Shi returned home with the knife in hand, Mrs. Shi had already put away all the money, and Shi Xiaolang only glanced at it and looked away.

Whether the money can be kept or not is uncertain.

Because of Wu Dalang's deception, Mrs. Shi was also very angry with Uncle Shi at this time. If he asked for money, she would not be able to keep it.

Uncle Shi just glanced at the money and turned his head away with difficulty. After a while, he turned around and took out an ingot and stuffed it with his wife, and took out the remaining roll.

Madam Shi was stunned for a moment, and quickly chased after her, "What are you doing with so much money?"

She is weak, but it does not mean that Uncle Shi can gamble with so much money.

Uncle Shi put the money in front of Zhou Lizhong and stuffed him with the whole burden, "I will find a house and move out as soon as possible, don't worry, this money..."

He paused and said, "This money can only be held by you first."

He raised his brows and said, "I can't control my mind, and I can't control my hands and feet, that's all I can do."

Zhou Li was stunned, "Master Shi believes me?"

Uncle Shi said with a wry smile: "Of course I believe you, and now the whole county can make me believe in your Zhou family."

He said: "I know your sister-in-law, called Man Bao, right? She is a famous person in our county, and she is the fourth-rank official in the county. Except for the concubine of the Bai family, she is the highest official in the county."

Although Uncle Shi has been inactive in recent years, he has a good memory. He has ruined his family business, and when he looks back, he will inevitably think of the little lady who always persuaded him to quit gambling.

"Everyone takes me as a joke this time. Only you are willing to lend a hand. I can trust you and Zhou Man's nephew."

Zhou Lizhong didn't want to pick it up, it was very troublesome, but when he saw Mrs. Shi who was leaning against the door and looking at him, he nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll take it for you until you need it. When using it, let Madam Shi come to me and ask for it."

Uncle Shi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded immediately.

Zhou Lizhong counted the money in the bag, and simply wrote a receipt to them, indicating that he took over the 112 taels in place of Uncle Shi and his wife.

Whether it is grandma, her mother, or a sister-in-law, anyone who encounters difficulties is willing to help, it is just a little trouble, it takes some energy, and there is no big loss. If he is unwilling to help, what will he do in the future? What's the big deal?

Zhou Lizhong thought so, and was more willing, handed the receipt to Uncle Shi, and said, "I sent Shi Xiaolang's pulse case and prescription to my aunt to see if my aunt has a good prescription to save him, Uncle Shi, I It will take a long time for Shi Xiaolang's illness to be cured, why don't you find some other work first?"

He thoughtfully said: "Since you don't want to gamble anymore, then keep yourself busy, sleep when you're tired, and work to earn money when you wake up. Once you're busy, you don't have the heart to think about gambling any more."

Uncle Shi stiffened slightly, shook his head and said, "Unless I chop off both of my hands, I'm afraid I won't be able to change it."

For so many years, he kept gambling and losing, and he lost all his family business. Naturally, he also wanted to quit, but every time he quit, he was more eager.

The longest time, he did not gamble again for eight months, and when he felt that he could control himself, for some reason, he followed his friends into the casino again...

Then it got out of hand.

Madam Shi, who was leaning against the door, twisted her face for a while, staring at his back with resentment on her face, she couldn't help but said viciously: "Then cut off your hand!"

Zhou Lizhong:  …

Uncle Shi was silent, looking eagerly at the knife he just threw on the table.

Zhou Lizhong was taken aback, and quickly said: "It's not like this, it's just gambling, it's not that hard to quit, right? Why don't you go to open up wasteland, when my fourth uncle was fined for gambling money, he was punished to open up wasteland, and he went out every day when it was bright, the sky was fast. He didn't come back until it got dark, and when he came back, he was directly paralyzed, let alone gambling, he didn't even think about what to eat or drink."

Madam Shi said with a numb expression: "He can't change it, how many years have passed, every time he changed it, someone would lead him to gamble. If I said, all his friends should be killed, they are all dead, Maybe he can fix it."

Zhou Lizhong was startled by her heavy resentment, and was speechless for a long time.

Uncle Shi was also silent.

It was quiet for a while inside and outside the house.

Mrs. Shi was the first to come back to her senses, she stepped forward and spread out the silver in her hand, saying, "Ten taels are too many, Zhou Langjun, please exchange them for fifty taels, and the five taels are also please. Take it."

This is because Uncle Shi can't help but take money from her because of his gambling addiction.

Zhou Li gave Uncle Shi a heavy look and nodded.
