Chapter 639 Lupine
The two people looked up in response and saw a group of people rushing in. The one in front was wearing a white shirt and his hair was shiny. It looked like he was not a good guy.
Behind them were seven or eight men wearing short sleeves, menacing, varying in height, fat and thin.
As soon as he saw this group of people, the old man quickly protected the girl behind him, his eyes not only wary but also nervous.
"What...are you going to do?"
Taking a deep breath, the old man summoned up the courage to ask.
"What are you doing? Humph! Old Man Lu! You should pay back what you owe! Let me tell you, if you don't pay back today...I will destroy your pharmacy!"
As he spoke, the man in the white shirt suddenly slammed a stick in his hand on a table next to him.
The table, which looked to be very old, was suddenly smashed into a gap.
The old man felt distressed when he saw this scene, but he didn't dare to speak. Just when he was hesitating and didn't know what to say, the girl behind him suddenly stood up.
"Zhang Pingqiu, this drug store was left by my ancestors, why do you ask for rent from us!"
The girl's eyes were red because she was so angry.
Over the past few days, because of the overbearing bastard across from me, my grandfather and I were in an unprecedentedly difficult situation. The old man was even sicker and more and more haggard.
"Lu Binghua, you said this medicine shop was left by your ancestors? Who can testify? The entire backing village seems to admit that this is the land of my Zhang family. Otherwise, we can call everyone together and ask?"
Looking at the girl, Zhang Pingqiu's face was full of smiles, but no matter how he looked at the smile, there was something indescribably...disgusting!
As soon as the old man saw Zhang Pingqiu facing Lu Binghua, he quickly protected the girl behind him again.
"Zhang Pingqiu, I will give you the rent. It's not time yet...don't force me!"
There was a hint of determination in Old Man Lu's eyes, and he stared at Zhang Pingqiu and said.
"Scream! Are you threatening me, you old man? Who said it's not time today? How many years have you been using this pharmacy? Let me tell you... If you can't get the money today, I will definitely kill you. This shabby shop!”
Zhang Pingqiu's face was full of ferocity. As he spoke, he suddenly took a step forward. The thugs behind him also widened their eyes, as if they were about to take action at the next moment!
"I...I don't have enough money now. Give me a few more days and I will definitely give it to you!"
After all, the old man was no longer physically strong. When he saw his posture, he immediately felt a little frightened and his voice began to tremble.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Pingqiu kicked him in the chest.
"Damn it last year! I'm still asking for money today!"
The force of this kick was very strong, and Old Man Lu was already old, so he flew backwards and hit the medicine shelf.
Lu Binghua rushed towards him quickly, but Zhang Pingqiu behind him had already signaled the thugs to start smashing the store.
…
"Boss, did you guys do a good job today?"
After smashing Old Man Lu's shop, Zhang Pingqiu was eating at a barbecue restaurant in the village with a group of thugs.
"It's very good. There will be rewards when you finish!"
Zhang Pingqiu was in a very good mood and said loudly while drinking beer.
The thugs next to him all cheered, and one even said to Zhang Pingqiu cheerfully, "Boss, Old Man Lu is desperate today. We will propose marriage in two days. By then...he will definitely See Lu Binghua marry you!"
Hearing this, Zhang Pingqiu also laughed and felt better.
This matter is very simple to say. Zhang Pingqiu is a gangster in this village. His father is a contractor at home, so he has a lot of money.
Old man Lu and his granddaughter Lu Binghua have been making a living by opening a medicine shop in this mountain village for many generations.
Originally, these two kinds of people would definitely not mix together, but by chance, Zhang Pingqiu suddenly became interested when he saw Lu Binghua's appearance!
It must be said that this Lu Binghua is indeed very beautiful, especially the aura that looks like an empty mountain of new bamboo. It is so pure that any man can't help but have some thoughts.
Therefore, Zhang Pingqiu had an idea.
He first forced everyone in the village to give false testimony on his behalf, and then insisted that the land where Old Man Lu opened the drugstore belonged to their Zhang family!
In this way, Old Man Lu and Lu Binghua were completely cornered.
But...there is nothing we can do.
It is true that Pingqiu's power in Kaoshan Village was too great. It could be said that Old Man Lu was unable to resist step by step.
Now, the plan is almost completed!
On the other side, the Lu family's medicine shop was filled with desolation.
Old Man Lu was lying on the bed, looking pale and almost dying.
Lu Binghua next to her looked at her grandfather on the bed with red eyes, feeling heartbroken but helpless.
After a long silence, Old Man Lu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Binghua, let's go... take the medicinal materials collected a few days ago and leave here! That beast from the Zhang family... just has a crush on you!"
After all, there is no such thing as an old fool. Old Man Lu knows the crux of the problem very well.
Lu Binghua didn't speak, and she didn't know what to say. She just felt unspeakably uncomfortable and angry!
She and her grandfather had always lived a very peaceful life. They would go into the mountains to collect medicine every now and then, and then rely on the income from the medicine shop to support their lives.
Simple, happy... This is why Lu Binghua can grow so delicately.
But now...all the beauty has been broken!
"Grandpa, I don't want to leave, I want to stay with you!"
Lu Binghua's voice began to choke, and her tears fell.
"Child, let's go. If you don't leave, you'll be doomed. Take those medicinal materials and sell them, which should be enough to support you for a while. I don't know what will happen to you in the future."
As he spoke, Old Man Lu's eyes also turned red.
After forcing him to this point, you can also see what kind of bastard this Pingqiu is.
"Grandpa, I want to go with you! Let's leave together and go to a place where no one can bully us!"
After gritting her teeth, Lu Binghua looked at Old Man Lu and said.
But soon, Old Man Lu shook his head.
"I can't leave. Our ancestors said that one day the person our Lu family has been waiting for for generations will come here and recreate the medical skills of our ancestors!"
Speaking of this matter, Old Man Lu's eyes suddenly lit up with a strange light. That was the hope that the entire Lu family had been waiting for!
"But, after all these years, is there really that person?"
After Lu Binghua hesitated for a while, she finally spoke out the questions in her heart.
But this time, Old Man Lu stopped talking.
There was silence again. Lu Binghua didn't say anything more, but she made up her mind!
That night, she quietly left Kaoshan Village alone.
Take that few medicinal materials and a few hundred dollars.
But she didn't leave Northern Hebei Province as Old Man Lu said, but took a car directly to Beidu, the capital of China!
When Lu Binghua was a child, he heard Old Man Lu tell him that in ancient times, if someone was wronged or unfair, they could go to Beijing to file a complaint!
And now, this is Lu Binghua's naive idea. She is going to Beidu to file a complaint and seek justice for herself and her grandfather!
Sitting in the car, there were endless wanderings along the road. When she arrived in Beidu, she felt as if a long, long time had passed.
Compared with this, what really scared Lu Binghua was her panic when facing such a huge city.
The crowded station, the busy streets, everything was the first time for her to see it, and the nervousness made her feel at a loss as to what to do.
She kept in mind what Old Man Lu told her about how dangerous the outside world was, so she was cautious in every move she made, for fear of being noticed by others.
But her appearance was exactly what attracted others' attention, so before she could react, the baggage containing her last bit of savings was stolen away.
In other words, she only had the last few medicinal ingredients left.
In desperation, Lu Binghua began to carry these things and went to each pharmacy to ask if she needed her own medicinal materials.
However, she faced disappointment again and again.
Just like that, after God knows how many times, I was rejected again.
When Lu Binghua was about to leave, she suddenly heard the words "Qian Liuzhi!"
