Debt Collectors

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Gu Shouxin! Three days are up! Get your ass out here!"

"Open the door! Open the door!"

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Gu Xin was fantasizing whether her sister was the sister she wanted, but she was shocked by the sudden knock on the door.

She subconsciously hid under the window of the central room.

She was already familiar with this situation -- debt collectors.

Her father often gambled and then borrowed money from the gambling house.

In the old house, her grandmother was powerful, and those people were beaten up when they came to the door.

But this happened too often, and her grandmother stopped helping her father and directly kicked the second son out.

Every time her father opened the door, he was beaten up, and then he went to the old house to look for her grandfather, uncle, and fourth uncle to borrow money.

Although she was afraid, Gu Xin was still a little worried about her father.

So, she quietly stood up and looked out of the window.

She saw that the figure she liked very much had his head held high and his chest puffed out as he opened the door. He was not as timid as before.

And her mother had always been hiding at times like this. But today, she did not hide. With her hands behind her back and a chopper in one hand, she walked to the vegetable garden in the yard and even squatted down to grab a handful of soil.

Then, she saw a third person.

Her sister had actually appeared not far behind her mother, and was making strange movements with her hands and feet.

Her hands turned her wrists, her toes stood on tiptoe, and her feet also turned.

Although she did not understand her sister's movements, she felt that this should be the preparation before a fight.

Gu Xin was stunned.

What was going on between her mother and her sister?

In the past, they would never come out in such a situation. What was going on today?

Oh no, her mother and her sister had never fought before. Could they have been injured!?

'No, I have to go find Grandma.'

Gu Xin thought about it and did not delay any further. She turned around and walked through the central room. She climbed up the slope from the ditch behind her and ran towards the old house from the soil.

As she ran, she was thinking about how lucky it was that the old house was not far away. Even if she could not call Grandma, she could call Uncle and Fourth Uncle.

Uncle and Fourth Uncle were still very willing to help their family.

'Sigh, Father should not gamble. He should be like Uncle and Fourth Uncle, either farming or doing other things.'

'No, Father seemed to be farming too. It was quite good. However, when he stopped farming, he would drink and gamble.'

'Sigh, I don't want to think about it anymore. I should quickly call for help.'

...

Gu Shouxin looked at the ten people standing at the door. In his mind, he already knew what they were going to do.

Before he came, Gu Shouxin had lost a bet at the gambling house. He also had the money he had borrowed from his mother to treat his youngest daughter's illness. Thinking that he would be beaten up by his mother when he went back, he wanted to win it back.

Then, he borrowed money from the gambling house. In the end, he lost everything and owed the gambling house 200 taels of silver.

This idiot had even used his wife and two daughters as bets. He had completely lost.

The people from the gambling house had said that 300 taels would be enough.

300 taels was an astronomical figure for a villager who dug for food in the fields.

Gu Shouxin did not want to be beaten by his own mother, nor did he want to see his wife and daughter being taken away. Thus, he went to the medicine shop to buy medicine to prevent snakes, insects, rats, and ants. When he returned home, he put them in the food, and his entire family died.

The people from the gambling house couldn't do anything to his mother's side.

In the end, the original Gu Shouxin died, but the nine thousand-year-old from the Great Zhou Dynasty came over.

Although nine thousand-year-old still hadn't figured out why his wife and daughters didn't die after eating it, he was still very glad. After all, he didn't have a wife before.
