Chapter 142: You're Back!
"The food here is too expensive," Cheng Xiufen couldn't help but complain, "Just beef, I don't know if it's chicken or duck liver, and a little seafood, it costs two or three hundred yuan!"
Cheng Xiufen felt that it wouldn't be too expensive, but when she asked the waiter, it was good, and the cost of this meal was worth two or three days. Cheng Xiufen thought that she had heard it wrong, and after confirming it again and again, she felt very sorry for this money.
Wang Guizhi saw Cheng Xiufen talking like this, and hurriedly persuaded: "Auntie, you don't have to worry, I have already paid for it just now, it's okay, I said that I invited this meal." ”
It turned out that Wang Guizhi had just taken the time to settle the money in advance, and she would not let Cheng Xiufen pay, otherwise Cheng Xiufen would feel that she was deliberately cheating her and coming to such an expensive Western restaurant.
Cheng Xiufen was relieved to see that Wang Guizhi had already paid, but she still said: "How can this be? I'll give you the money later, how can I, an elder, let the junior have a treat?"
Wang Guizhi hurriedly replied: "Auntie, I really don't need it, it's rare for me to invite you to a meal." ”
Cheng Xiufen listened, and changed the topic again: "Tingting, I brought you to Beijing to let you study and study, you are good, but now you are patronizing and playing, after you go back, you must do more questions." ”
Li Yongting nodded again and again and said, "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely study hard when I go home, and I will strive to study at Tsinghua University and Peking University in the future!"
After that, the three of them chatted about tomorrow's itinerary again.
Wang Guizhi proposed: "Aunt Cheng, Tingting, why don't we go to the Forbidden City tomorrow, how can we come to Beijing and not go to the Forbidden City?"
When Cheng Xiufen heard it, she waved her hand again and again, and said very reluctantly: "Isn't this Forbidden City where the people of the previous emperor lived? ”
Li Yongting listened, but she was also unwilling, she heard that this Forbidden City is very beautiful, and there are many cats in it, and she is also itchy: "Mom, you are wrong, this Forbidden City is very brilliant, not dilapidated at all, where did you hear these rumors?
Cheng Xiufen saw that she was pierced by Li Yongting, and immediately felt very shameless, and immediately replied: "Anyway, I won't go to the Forbidden City, I'll go to the Summer Palace tomorrow." I don't know what to see in this house in the Forbidden City!"
Li Yongting made trouble for a long time, but Cheng Xiufen still decided to go to the Summer Palace.
Wang Guizhi saw Li Yongting and Cheng Xiufen quarreling, and knew that even in the face of Li Yongting, Cheng Xiufen's temper was still so stubborn.
The three of them played in Beijing for a few days before taking the train back.
As soon as they got off the train, Wang Guizhi was sharp-eyed and found Li Haoqiang waiting not far away. Li Haoqiang received a call from Wang Guizhi, saying that they were going to take the train back, so he went to ask others to borrow a car, and waited for them at this station early. Li Haoqiang took the three of them into the car, drove to his own restaurant, cooked a meal for them, and then sent Cheng Xiufen and Li Yongting home.
When Wang Guizhi saw Li Haoqiang going out, he directly asked his adoptive mother Fan Xiuman: "Mom, is there something going on at home?
As soon as Wang Guizhi returned to his hotel, he saw Fan Xiuman's eyes fluttering, and he wanted to say something but was very hesitant, probably because Cheng Xiufen and the others were still there, and he was embarrassed to speak. And Li Haoqiang is also very obvious, he kept asking Wang Guizhi how he went to Beijing in the car, and he didn't say anything about the situation between himself and Fan Xiuman in the past few days.
Wang Guizhi is also very familiar with Fan Xiuman and Li Haoqiang, and looking at their every move, he knows that the two of them must have something to hide from themselves.
"It's okay, it's really okay. Fan Xiuman saw that his mind was pierced by Wang Guizhi, and hurriedly waved his hand and said.
"Mom, you just say, you can't keep hiding it from me," Wang Guizhi saw what Fan Xiuman was hiding, and hurriedly pointed it out, "I have to know what's going on at home, is it that Deng Lingchun is coming to you again?"
Under Wang Guizhi's repeated questioning, Fan Xiuman could only tell her the truth, and her tone was very melancholy: "...... Well, I'll tell you. This matter has nothing to do with Deng Lingchun, it was something that happened to your biological parents' family. ”
"What happened to my biological parents?" Wang Guizhi was a little surprised.
Wang Guizhi thought of what Wang Yanbin and Zhao Huixiu were in the factory before, and always felt that it should be here. She said at the beginning that Wang Yanbin and Zhao Huixiu would learn a lesson sooner or later, but Wang Guizhi didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
Fan Xiuman sighed: "Alas, it was your brother Wang Yanbin who had an accident. ”
Her words were concise and to the point, so that Wang Guizhi immediately understood what was going on.
Wang Guizhi also knew that Wang Yanbin would be caught sooner or later, so her face did not show any surprise or panic, which made Fan Xiuman a little puzzled.
"Gui Zhi, aren't you surprised that your brother has been arrested?" asked Fan Xiuman puzzled.
"Mom, I knew that Wang Yanbin secretly withheld the workers' money to buy vegetables and put it in his wallet, and I also persuaded him and my mother not to do that, but they didn't listen to the persuasion and scolded me, so I thought they would learn a lesson. Is this grocery shopping thing being caught now?"
"No, I was caught gambling. Fan Xiuman told.
Wang Guizhi thought about it for a while, but said: "Yes, my brother and my mother also play cards and gamble in the brick factory every day, so it should be that the gambling was discovered." ”
Wang Guizhi thought that after all, he had invested in this brick factory, and asked anxiously: "Mom, is there anything wrong with this brick factory?
If this brick factory is really stopped, Wang Guizhi will also lose a lot of money.
Fan Xiuman shook his head: "There's nothing wrong with the brick factory. ”
Hearing that the brick factory was fine, Wang Guizhi patted his chest and was relieved.
Fan Xiuman continued to tell Wang Guizhi what happened: "That's the case, Guizhi, your brother's casino is getting bigger and bigger, and all the villagers in this village are going there to gamble." And the husband of the second daughter of the Huo family, what is Tian Weilai, where did he go to gamble and lose a lot of money, the second daughter of the Huo family had no choice, so she ran to the house to complain, and the Huo family only knew about it. The old man of the Huo family has also been in business all his life, and of course he knows that if gambling is caught by the government, the brick factory will definitely be stopped. He probably didn't want his son's hard work to be tricked, so he took a group of people to kill them. ”
Fan Xiuman paused, and continued: "Gui Zhi, you also know, this gambling addiction is very difficult to quit, your younger brother, is already crazy, he rented a small house near the brick factory to gamble, he also planned to wait for Huo Xiang to come back after a while, and then go in to play, but I don't know who reported it, the police came and took them to the nest, and the others insisted that Wang Yanbin was the mastermind, and now he is still locked up in the police station, as if to say something, this is quite serious, and he will be sentenced!"
Wang Guizhi listened to Fan Xiuman's words, but she didn't care, and asked, "Then how did my parents deal with it?"
"Your mother came here to make trouble, desperately begging Haoqiang to find an acquaintance to release Wang Yanbin, but our family has no connections, how can we release it? Your father refused, and your biological father was broken by your grandfather's leg, saying that there is no way to teach his son, and now he can't walk. ”
Wang Guizhi thought about it for a while, but decided to call Huo Xiang: "Huo Xiang, are you back?"
A voice came from the other end of the phone: "Well, I already know the specific things, and I'm back." ”
Hearing the news that Huo Xiang had returned, Wang Guizhi thought about it and returned to his biological parents' home. As soon as she entered the house, she saw her second mother, Liu Xinmei, feeding Wang Nong medicine and drinking.
When Liu Xinmei saw Gui Zhi coming, she also looked anxious: "Gui Zhi, you are back!"
