Chapter 197
The smile on the old lady’s face was hardly visible: “Tieniu, in the end, we are family . Even broken bones can still be attached with the help of tendons . Second Aunt treated you badly, but that is because second aunt has no other choice . Who in this village don’t know how difficult we live? We never had enough money, so I have never been helpful to you . Today, second aunt was forced to come to you due to helplessness . At ordinary times, second aunt never ask you for help, right?”
Bai Tieniu coldly snorted: “I asked you to help me for two times in this life . But second aunt, did you ever help me? Forget it, its all in the past, I have no time to talk to you about these things . To make it short, it’s impossible to borrow rice from us, but because you are my second aunt . If you are willing to pay, I will be able to accommodate you . ”
Old Lady Bai’s heart was filled with anger, but she cannot take it out . Who told her to come in here earlier?
“Then tell us, how much is one meter stone of rice?” Mrs . Liu asked .
“One meter of stone?” Bai Tieniu’s voice increased a lot and spoke with a bit exaggerated tone .
“I can’t afford to sell one meter of stone . I went to the town today, but only bought 2 buckets of rice . If you want, I can sell you one bucket for 2 silver coins . I will not include my travel expenses, after all, you are my second aunt, right?”
Mrs . Liu’s voice immediately increased: “What? 2 silver coins for a bucket? Why don’t you just rob us?”
Bai Tieniu’s face sank and said in an angry way: “Liu Guihua if you think you have such a great skill, why don’t you go to the town, and see who still sell a bucket of rice for 2 silver coins . Believe it or not, you won’t be able to find any . ”
There were suddenly increased in the number of refugees from the south . Everyone knows that when these refugees came, the price of rice has also increased . Because of this, some people began to stock foods, even those people who have no money borrowed money just to get some rice . Even the rice shops were having a shortage of supply . Well, getting out of stock was a normal thing .

So, this old lady coming to borrow rice is simply crazy .
Old Lady Bai frowned and said: “2 silver coins for a bucket, that is too expensive . In the past, you can buy a meter of stone for 2 silver coins . ”
Bai Tieniu coldly sneered: “In the past? Is it past now? Alright, if you don’t want to buy, then just go . I will not delay you . ”
After he finished, Bai Tieniu was about to close the door . Seeing this, Old Lady Bai’s heart skipped a beat . She rushed to stop him: “Buy, I will buy, give me a bucket of rice . ”
If it was an ordinary day, she will not buy rice even if she dies, but at this moment, she was really hungry . If she will not eat a meal today, she will not have the strength to get up tomorrow . Besides, the price of rice keeps increasing . Even if she let things passed tonight, it’s impossible for her to buy cheap rice tomorrow .
Bai Tieniu’s lips curved into a smile, this smile of him have a bit trace of being proud .
“Well, you wait . ” He turned around and went inside the house . Not long after, he came out with a cloth bag, amounting a bucket of rice .

Old Lady Bai chuckled: “We are family, can you spare us tonight? I will give it to you tomorrow . ” ”
Bai Tieniu shook his head: “I don’t believe you . If you hand over the money, I will hand over the rice . No further discussion . ”
This trick of this old lady has been used to most people in the village . Many people have eaten big lost because of this . It would be stupid if Bai Tieniu still believes her .
