Yang saw that Li Zheng was unwilling to help them, so he burst into tears, "My house, my fields, my whole life's hard work, it's gone, woo woo... woo woo..."
Li Zheng said: "Don't cry, you have set up stalls in the city over the years, and you should have made a lot of money. That liar, I guess you have nothing to do with him. The most important thing now is your family's house. Hetiandi, get the money first and go to the pawnshop to redeem the IOU. If you find new evidence in the future, go to the government and sue him."
Yang said with a bitter face: "I... We thought about it, but we don't have that much money at all."
Li Zheng glanced at his wife Mi Shi, saw her nodding, and then said, "How much money can your family spend now?"
Yang thought for a while, and said, "Once our family made money in the past, in order to marry our three sons in the future, we would go back to the village to buy farmland and land. You know this, but now we don't have much spare money... "
"How much is not much?"
Mr. Yang glanced around at the people present, and said embarrassedly: "Also...and only five taels of silver."
Miss Mi frowned slightly: "Only five taels? That's too little. Didn't you just say that your two sons also saved two or three taels of silver? Add theirs, is there only five taels?"
Yang shi said anxiously: "Yes, I know it's a little less, but this is really all the money in our family.

Let her lend such a large sum of money to such a ruthless family to tide over the difficulties, she is really unwilling.
Mrs. Mi looked at Mrs. Yang and frowned: "I remember you are from Qingshan Village. I heard that your parents' conditions are not bad, why didn't you ask them to borrow money?"
Yang said with a look of embarrassment: "Their children are also at the age of marriage, and the family has to build a house and pay a betrothal gift. I really can't tell them to sacrifice their own children to protect my children."
Lizheng and Mi Shi were silent for a while.
Seeing that Li Zheng and Mi Shi hesitated at the same time, Zhuang Qinglu begged: "Uncle Tang, my father had a good relationship with you when he was young, you... You can help me because I lost my parents since I was a child. Help me. My parents are under Jiuquan, and I will definitely be grateful to you."
