The man who came was menacing and nine feet long, no less imposing than Zhongzhonglou.

"When will the money owed be returned?"

The man asked coldly.

It was embarrassing to lose two pieces of silver. Now the debt collectors have come to the house. Zhongzhonglou felt that his face was about to die with shame. He could only hold his neck and curse: "Didn't we agree to do it in three days?"

The people in the village saw the group of people and roughly guessed the situation from their conversations.

"Isn't the Shen family's house also mortgaged for betting?"

"Tsk, how much hatred is there? In order to bet that his ex-wife will lose, Zhongzhonglou actually spent such a huge amount of money..."

"In the end, I lost all my money. Tsk, tsk, tsk, if you ask me, then Nan Jiangnan is the really wonderful person, he actually knows so much."

The people in the village were talking a lot, and every word seemed to say that Zhong Zhonglou was petty, and they kept poking her spine with words.

Shen Zhonglou gritted his teeth.

The man looked at Zhongzhonglou, then at the appearance of the Chongzhonglou family on the four walls, and said with a smile: "It seems that you won't be able to pay back the money for a while?"

"It doesn't matter. If it doesn't happen, we will make this matter known to everyone."

"Whether you want face or pay back money, you decide for yourself."

The man smiled coldly and turned to leave.

Zhonglou was trembling all over.

This matter cannot be known to more people, absolutely not!

Zhongzhonglou gritted his teeth and suddenly pounced on the person in front of him. He waved his fist and smashed the person's face.

Zhongzhonglou is good at martial arts and is not weak.

However, two fists are no match for four hands. Although Chongzhonglou is not weak, the group of people who came to collect debts are not ordinary people. The two groups of people struggled together.

Although Xia Shengsheng was angry with Shen Zhonglou because of the previous incident, she couldn't just watch Shen Zhonglou being beaten to death by them, so she had to rush forward to protect Zhonglou. Now that she was despised by her natal family, she could only rely on her husband's family to support Shen Zhonglou. Although Lou is weak, he can't be beaten to death just like that!

"No, don't touch her!"

Xia Sheng burst into tears, her eyes were red, and her clothes were torn.

After all, Xia Shengsheng was his wife, and Xia Shengsheng's beating was a loss of face. What's more, he and Xia Shengsheng were newly married, and Qingfen was still there. Seeing the embarrassment on Xia Shengsheng's face, he felt heavy. He yelled at the group of people: "What's the point of attacking a woman's family!"

"Ah!"

"If you still want to take care of others after things like this, I think you should take care of yourself first!"

As the man spoke, he suddenly picked up firewood from the side and smashed it hard against Zhongzhonglou's legs!

"Crack!"

"ah--!"

Chongzhonglou screamed in pain!

His legs!

Shen Zhonglou's face was pale and he almost fainted. Xia Shengsheng was dizzy, his hands were trembling, and he threw himself into Shen Chonglou's arms like crazy: "You, how dare you hurt others!"

"It is natural to pay back debts. If you don't pay back, you will use your body to pay off the debt. Why don't you dare?"

"We will come back in three days. If we don't pay back the money then, it won't be a leg problem!"

Those people said and left quickly.

Li Zheng sighed, looking at the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but cheer in his heart.

Zhongzhonglou did those excessive things and got his current fate only because of himself.

Xia Shengsheng hugged Zhongzhonglou, and together with Shen Niannian, Shen Jinjin and Shen Suisui, dragged Zhongzhonglou into the house.

They had no money to treat Zhongzhonglou's legs, so Xia Shengsheng had no choice but to find wood from outside and fix it with local methods. Zhongzhonglou's face was gray. He had never suffered so many grievances in his life...

Frustrated.

It’s so frustrating!

It would be better to die than to live in such a miserable state...

Xia Shengsheng saw the despair in Zhongzhonglou's eyes, fearing that Zhongzhonglou would lose his mind and do something stupid. Xia Shengsheng gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, I will find a way to deal with the money. Just hold on..."

Xia Shengsheng gritted his teeth.

Even though she said that, where was she going to get the money?

The Xia family is definitely gone, and she and the Ye family have completely fallen out. The only possibility is to leave the Han family...

Han family...

Xia Shengsheng pursed her lips and went to ask Han Li out.

Han Li didn't originally plan to see Xia Shengsheng, but he couldn't bear it when he heard that Xia Shengsheng had been having trouble eating and sleeping recently.

"Master Han, you are here."

Xia Shengsheng raised her eyes and looked at Han Li.

Xia Shengsheng's appearance is not bad. After all, she is the heroine in the original work. She has a pair of very charming eyes. Now she is looking at Han Li with a smile. Her figure is light, and the evening breeze lifts her sleeves, which are like cold. A snow lotus standing proudly in the wind is fresh and moving.

Han Li pursed his lips and said, "Xia...Mrs. Xia, what do you want from me?"

Hearing Han Li's address, Xia gritted her teeth and could only pretend not to hear. She bent her knees and knelt in front of Han Li: "Master Han, please help me..."

Xia Sheng was about to speak and shed tears first, with a pitiful look on her face, holding back her heartbeat.

Han Li was stunned for a moment. He remembered what happened at the Hidden Moon Tower. He sighed: "Are you here to borrow money?"

Xia Shengsheng pursed her lips and nodded bravely, with a look of embarrassment on her face.

They were still friends when they last met, but now...

"Please help me because of our past friendship. Don't worry, I will definitely return it to you as soon as possible." Taking advantage of his physical appearance, he made every move and smile well, making him appear extremely pitiful, which made Han Li feel a twinge in his heart.

Xia Shengsheng used to be such a beautiful girl, but it's a pity...

Xia Shengsheng lowered her eyes and pinched the hem of her skirt with trembling hands: "I know it's my fault, but I really don't know what to do."

Xia Shengsheng said, raising a hand to wipe away tears, which just revealed the traces of injuries from someone who had just saved Zhonglou.

When Han Li saw the bruises on Xia Shengsheng's body, he couldn't sit still anymore and looked at her with pity: "Why are you injured? Those people still attack you? That's too much!"

"fine……"

Xia Shengsheng shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's just some skin injuries."

Xia Shengsheng raised her eyes and looked at Han Li: "Master Han, can you really not help me?"

"this……"

Han Li sighed: "If it's just a hundred taels, I can still help, but you owe too much, and I can't do anything." Although Han Li is the young master of the Han family, he is actually far from that famous, let alone him. How many monthly shares can a concubine have? And although he has several villagers that he can use, he has always been domineering and playful, and has never managed it well, so naturally he doesn't have much money left.

Han Li pursed his lips.

"If you want to pay back, the only ones who can help you are Nan Jiangnan and Han Sheng..."

Xia Shengsheng fell into despair.
