Chapter 57 The Poor Little One Killed by His Uncle 13
As Ge Cuilan spoke, her eyes suddenly flashed with greed. "Boss, I heard from Big Mouth's wife that the village chief brought a soldier to the old house a few days ago. The man entered the village with a big backpack on his back, but the backpack was gone when he left the village."
She lowered her voice and asked, "Boss, do you think that soldier is here to give you the pension?"
Liu Tiezhu was excited, "It must be, I'll go ask."
Ge Cuilan chased after him and said, "Master, Yuanchun is still young. She has so much money. What if she gets cheated? You are her uncle, you have to help her manage the money."
The excuses for robbing money all sound reasonable.
However, the couple ultimately failed to find Yuanchun.
On the way, they all fell down. Liu Tiezhu broke his right leg and Ge Cuilan broke his left leg. The couple howled in pain and were sent to the county hospital by the villagers.
When he arrived at the hospital, the nurse urged him to pay the surgery and hospitalization fees, and then Liu Tiezhu remembered that he didn't have a penny.
He grabbed Liu Tielin who had brought him to the hospital and said anxiously, "Brother, my house was robbed again yesterday. All the money we just found was stolen. I don't have money to treat my leg. Go back and find Yuanchun. My eldest brother's pension has been sent to us. Ask Yuanchun to take it out and use it to treat my leg and my child's mother's leg first."
Liu Tielin didn't agree. He sighed and said, "It's not easy for Yuanchun to live alone. Don't worry about your elder brother's pension. I'll go home and ask the villagers to collect as much as they can. When the time comes, you can write a receipt and pay it back after selling the grain in the autumn harvest."
Giving it away for free won't work. At that time, life was difficult for everyone and everyone wanted to spend every penny wisely.
Liu Tiezhu didn't want to borrow money, he said anxiously, "Brother, my child's mother and I both need surgery on our legs and we need to be hospitalized. It will cost a lot. Where can you get so much money? Go find..."
Liu Tielin interrupted him angrily, "Tiezhu, that was the money Tiesheng earned with his life. That money was left by Tiesheng for Yuanchun. No one should think about it."
Ge Cuilan howled, "Tiezhu is his biological brother, and his money also belongs to Tiezhu." "You two have separated, and now we are two families." If it weren't for the fact that they are from the same clan, Liu Tielin would not want to bother with this shameless couple, "Liu Tiezhu, I warn you, you two don't think about bullying Yuanchun. If you dare to count Yuanchun's money, I will let Third Grandpa expel you from the family tree."
Liu Tiezhu and Ge Cuilan dared not say a word anymore.
The few villagers who came with them looked at them with contempt, but were also curious about how much money Liu Tiesheng's pension would be.
In the afternoon, the news spread in the village.
Everyone in the village knew that Yuanchun had a large sum of money.
When an old lady saw Yuanchun, she asked curiously, "Yuanchun, I heard that the country has sent your father's pension. How much is it? Tell me so I can know."
Yuanchun said distressedly, "I am still young and don't know how to manage money, so I asked my father's comrade-in-arms to take it back and save it for me, and then send me five yuan every month for pocket money."
The lady opened her mouth in astonishment, then pointed at her and cursed, "Yuanchun girl, you are stupid. How can you let a stranger keep your money? If that person swallows your money, where will you go to find someone?"
"He is not a stranger. He is my father's comrade-in-arms and his leader. He is the most trustworthy soldier and would not be greedy for my father's money."
Uncle Bing, I'm sorry, in order to avoid attracting thieves and causing trouble, I have to let you take the blame.
Little Yuanchun apologized to the soldier in her heart.
