Siheyuan: Happy life of veteran drivers

Chapter 231 Son pays debt to father

Who went back to the courtyard in the afternoon?

Qin Huairu's heart skipped a beat when she heard this.

I just came back to have a secret affair, is it necessary to make such a fuss?

Qin Huairu was extremely nervous and didn't know whether she should raise her hand, so she looked at Wang Hongtao for advice.

Wang Hongtao shook his head firmly at him.

"Uncle, I have an idea." Wang Hongtao stood up and said.

"What's your idea? Tell me." Yi Zhonghai was worried that he would not be able to step down, so when he saw Wang Hongtao standing up, he immediately said in a friendly manner.

"Hasn't Second Uncle returned home yet? I think he should go back and check first to see if anything is missing. What if Second Aunt is mistaken?"

After saying that, Wang Hongtao nodded at Liu Haizhong with a serious expression.

A flash of lightning flashed through Liu Haizhong's mind, as if he realized something, and rushed into Liu Guangqi's room.

When he came out a few minutes later, his face was as pale as if he had lost his parents, with his hands in his pockets and his whole body trembling.

"Old Liu, how are you?" Yi Zhonghai asked with concern.

"What are the things that were lost? If all else fails, we can report it to the police. At worst, we can just give up this advanced courtyard!"

Liu Haizhong waved his hands helplessly: "Well, neighbors, please go away. It was Second Auntie who made a mistake. Nothing is missing from our house."

“Why isn’t it lost? It’s obviously…” The second aunt was extremely anxious.

"I said it's not lost, so it's not lost. Do you understand?!" Liu Haizhong yelled at the second aunt.

"I..." The second aunt was timid and did not dare to refute.

After yelling, Liu Hai forced out a bitter smile: "Well, uncle, you should quickly let everyone disperse. Today, our Liu family made a fool of themselves. Don't let it affect everyone's mood."

Liu Hai felt very upset. All the joy of advancing to the seventh level of blacksmithing and taking third place in weightlifting was gone.

Seeing that Liu Haizhong was unwilling to speak, Yi Zhonghai did not force him and patted Liu Haizhong on the shoulder: "Well, Lao Liu, if you have anything to say, just speak up. We have been friends for decades, you can't just sit there and watch."

"Let's go, everyone. Today's incident was caused by the Liu family's mistake. Go back and pretend that nothing happened. Don't spread rumors."

……

The next day, Liu Haizhong did not go to work. Instead, he locked himself in the room and sulked. He smashed almost all the worthless things in the room.

However, the truth could not be hidden, and the neighbors eventually found out about Liu Guangqi's escape.

Wait for Wang Hongtao to come back from get off work.

The courtyard was in an uproar.

The neighbors were talking about the eldest son of the second uncle's family running away, secretly signing up for aid without telling his family, and going to Shishi, thousands of miles away, with his wife, leaving only a letter for the second uncle.

Liu Guangqi is really a ruthless man. He left without any hesitation, but before leaving, he took away the radio, hundreds of dollars in cash, and all the national bills in the house.

That’s not all. Some time ago, Liu Guangqi used the excuse of getting married to borrow a lot of money from his neighbors.

Now that the person has run away, the blame naturally falls on Liu Haizhong.

From time to time, the wailing of the second aunt, the scolding of Liu Haizhong, and the screams of Guang Tian Guangfu could be heard from the second uncle's house.

Seeing this, Uncle Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to go in and persuade them.

In the room, the second uncle could not accept that his eldest son, whom he had always favored, would actually run away with all his belongings. He also bluntly said that there was something wrong with his education method and that this was the reason why he chose to run away.

Seeing Liu Haizhong like this, Yi Zhonghai tried to comfort him: "Old Liu, no matter what, your health always comes first.

I think when Guangqi has a child in the future, he will understand you.

Besides, this time Guangqi and his wife are going to aid construction, which can be regarded as responding to the call of the country, and they will be cadres when they are transferred back. "

After such a huge loss of face, the people Liu Hai least wanted to face were Boss Yi and Boss Yan, so he forced out a helpless expression:

"Old Yi, Old Yan, my Liu family is in trouble. I am sorry to have embarrassed you."

"Well, I want to calm down alone now, you guys go out for a while."

Liu Haizhong had already said so much, Yi Zhonghai and Yan Fugui felt embarrassed to stay any longer, so they left the Liu family after saying a few words of comfort.

After the two men left, Liu Haizhong had no intention of resting. He first read the letter left by Liu Guangqi several times, and then tore it to pieces.

After closing his eyes and thinking for a while, Liu Haizhong determined that it was because of the two brothers Guangtian and Guangfu that Liu Guangqi ran away with his newlywed wife.

So he took out all his anger on the second and third brothers, beating them so hard that they ran away in fear.

The two brothers screamed in pain from being beaten, but Liu Haizhong beat them even harder.

……

It was exciting to see the neighbors watching the fun outside.

Xu Damao asked curiously, "If Liu Guangqi ran away, then so be it. Isn't there still Guang Tian Guang Fu? Why are you so angry?"

This time, Shazhu didn't challenge him.

Sha Zhu folded his hands in front of him and explained to him cheerfully: "That's what you don't understand. If he had simply run away, he wouldn't be so angry."

"But that bastard Liu Guangqi not only ran away, but also took away all of Second Master's savings and coupons before leaving."

"He also took away the radio that my uncle bought for himself some time ago."

"I heard that he borrowed a lot of money from the neighbors and is now reconciling the accounts in the house!"

"Can you stop howling, hehe..."

As he spoke, Sha Zhu couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Oh no! Liu Guangqi, that bastard, even asked me to borrow thirty yuan, and we agreed to pay him back thirty-five. I was wondering why this guy was so generous, it turns out he had a plan all along!"

With that, Xu Damao quickly went back into the house to look through the IOU.

……

The second uncle is a man who likes to put on airs. He often uses Sha Zhu to establish his authority. He even beat Sha Zhu up a few days ago.

Now that the family scandal has occurred, it is inevitable that Sha Zhu would gloat over the misfortune.

Of course, Sha Zhu was not the only one who laughed at the joke, there were also the Jia Zhang family next door, the Yan family, and other residents in the courtyard.

There are many people who usually don't like the Second Uncle's behavior, but now they are all secretly enjoying it.

But other people are not as stupid as Shazhu and know how to cover it up.

Wang Hongtao raised his hand and slashed Sha Zhu's scalp, then gave him a wink.

Seeing this, Sha Zhu reacted quickly, coughed embarrassedly, and stood aside to watch the show.

Wang Hongtao saw the performance of the neighbors.

Some people are worried about not getting their money back, some are gloating over others’ misfortunes, some are indifferent, and some are secretly taking notes to show off…

But there is no one who sincerely wants to help.

Even Yi Zhonghai felt a little gloating.

It's just that he is so cunning that others can't see it.

Of course, it is human nature to hate you for having something, laugh at you for not having something, dislike you for being poor, and fear you for being rich.

The second uncle has a bad relationship with people, so it is normal that he is not liked by others.

In fact, Wang Hongtao had already predicted that Liu Guangqi would run away.

Borrowing money and bills at such a high frequency and promising people high interest rates is abnormal no matter how you look at it.

Although he still couldn't understand why Liu Guangqi still didn't appreciate it even though the second uncle and his wife were so kind and partial to him.

After all, he is the one who is taking advantage.

……

The second uncle beat Guangtian Guangfu severely and finally calmed down a lot. He opened the door and invited Boss Yi and Old Third Yan in.

Guangqi ran away, but his problem of debt was not over.

After a while, the third uncle had counted the money Liu Guangqi had borrowed.

The total amount borrowed is 480, and the repayment including principal and interest is 550!

Second Aunt’s eyes went dark and she screamed again, this time she almost passed out.

"Quickly pinch the Ren Zhong point!" Yi Zhonghai hurriedly commanded.

After everyone was busy for a while, the second aunt finally woke up and said, "Master, what should we do..."

Liu Haizhong smoked silently without saying a word.

Yi Zhonghai consoled them, "We are all neighbors. First of all, I will make the decision for everyone and waive the interest. After all, the Liu family has suffered such a great disaster."

At this juncture, Yan Bugui did not let down his guard: "I have no objection, but this capital..."

Liu Haizhong said, "I'll return the principal!"

……

Outside the house, Jia Zhang was worried that the world would not be in chaos.

"Neighbors, this thief is also a thief. In this case, should we report it to the police and security department and have him arrested?"

"The arrogance of petty theft cannot be encouraged!"

……

At this time, Yi Zhonghai happened to go out and saw Jia Zhang's intention at a glance.

He coughed and said seriously, "Sister-in-law, you don't need to worry about this. This is the Liu family's family affair, and it's not convenient for us outsiders to interfere."

"Okay, let's all go back and rest."

"Also, everyone, please don't talk nonsense about this when you go back. If it gets out, not only will it be embarrassing for us, but it will also affect the selection of advanced courtyard houses."

"Based on previous years, the rewards for advanced courtyard houses are quite good."

As the moral representative of Nanluoguxiang, Yi Zhonghai naturally does not want this matter to become widely known.

Whether the news spread to the next courtyard or the street office, it would not be a good thing for him, so he habitually chose to cover it up.

What's more, the second uncle also said this. They admit the crime and they will pay the debt!

Since the people did not report it and the officials did not investigate, the matter of Liu Guangqi's escape was just left unsolved.
