Chapter 31: The Jade Lion (1)

"Don't worry, listen to me, our director is Vice Mayor Zhou's subordinate when he was in the army before, if your brother comes forward, the matter should be solved." ”

Only then did Wang Youmu understand what Xu Weidong meant, it turned out that he asked himself to beg Wang Qingshan, he lit a cigarette and smoked silently.

Xu Weidong saw that he stopped talking, and said a little anxiously

"Youmu, don't worry, I will make up for the shortfall of money, I let you go, in fact, I told our director, don't fire me, I will take out half of my monthly salary in the future and slowly make up for it, I can't be without a job, otherwise what will the old man do." ”

Looking at Wang Youmu, who was still silent, Xu Weidong continued

"I've thought of all the ways I should think, if you don't help me, I'll only have to sell the current house, if I go to rent a house to live, but what about the old man, if the old man knows about this, I guess I will be angry to death. ”

"You don't know my brother, you make me think about it. Wang Youmu said slowly

"I also want you to think about it slowly, but I'm going to check the library in a few days, I'm not forcing you, I really don't have much time, you just go and talk about it, you believe me as long as your brother comes forward, the most I can do is write a check on this matter, and then slowly make up the money. Xu Weidong said a little anxiously

"Well, whether it works or not, I'll come to you early the day after tomorrow. Wang Youmu stood up and said

"That's okay, I'll wait for your news, you remember that you must come to me the morning after tomorrow, I have even found someone to buy a house, you can't do this, I'll go find someone to see the house." Xu Weidong said dejectedly

Wang Youmu returned home with a heavy heart, and he didn't eat two bites of dinner, Xu Qiuli on the side felt that today's husband was a little abnormal, and asked with concern

"Youmu, what's wrong with you, you haven't eaten much, where did you go in the afternoon?"

"It's okay, it's just that my stomach is a little upset, but now it's much better, and I went to Lao Xie in the afternoon to help clean up the fire wall of his house." Wang Youmu said

Lying in bed at night, Wang Youmu couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, listening that his wife next to him had fallen asleep, he got up quietly, walked to the outhouse and lit a cigarette, thinking about Xu Weidong's affairs in the afternoon

He didn't plan to let his wife know about this matter, he knew Xu Qiuli, and letting his wife know was tantamount to letting his father-in-law know, thinking about the old man lying on the bed that day, he was afraid that the old man would not be able to carry it after he knew.

Xu Weidong said that he didn't think it was feasible, Xu Weidong still didn't know his brother Wang Qingshan enough, but Wang Youmu understood that Wang Qingshan would never agree to help with this kind of abuse of power for personal gain.

So the only way is to find a way to make up for the money, but where does so much money come from? Who would lend such a large sum of money to himself as a temporary worker?

He actually thought of Wang Qingshan, but he finally vetoed it, Wang Qingshan's situation He knew that the children in the family were in junior high school, and the efficiency of his sister-in-law Zhu Ling's unit was not good.

A few years ago, the uncle has been seriously ill and hospitalized, although the uncle has passed away now, but I heard from the eldest brother that the sister-in-law's brother doesn't care about the elderly, and there is no way that their family has been taking care of the two elderly people in the past few years, and their burden should be very heavy.

Thinking of his uncle, Wang Youmu suddenly thought of a way, that is, the jade lion left by his father, this jade lion was left by his grandfather to his father.

It is said that when the old lady went to the capital, there was a eunuch who secretly sold it to him, and when he came back, he looked for someone to see that it was indeed a good thing, but people said that it should be a pair, and in the end it was passed down from generation to generation.

Before his death, his grandfather passed this jade lion to Wang Youmu's father, and I heard that the uncle was angry about it for a long time. After the death of his parents, this jade lion uncle has been kept by him, and the uncle asked Wang Youmu to take it away before he died, and Wang Youmu said that whoever holds it is the same, so he has been keeping it with his eldest brother Wang Qingshan.

It is impossible to borrow money, Wang Youmu thinks that he can only take the jade lion to a knowledgeable person, and mortgage it to the other party by someone he knows, and redeem it when he has money in the future.

In the end, he thought of Liu Qishan, Liu Qishan's father liked jade very much, and he heard that after retirement, he had nothing to do at home to tinker with all kinds of jade, thinking of this, he decided to go to the eldest brother the next day to get back the jade lion, and then mortgage it to Liu Qishan.

After work the next day, he hurriedly came to the house of his eldest brother Wang Qingshan, Wang Qingshan has never gone to Wang Youmu since the last time Liu Yusheng happened, and Wang Youmu has not gone to Wang Qingshan, Wang Qingshan looked at his younger brother sitting on the sofa, couldn't help but be a little curious, looked at Wang Youmu and said

"I thought you would never set foot in my door again in your life, your business is not over yet, did you figure it out and come to me?"

When it came to the matter of Liu Yusheng, Wang Youmu was a little disappointed, he was disappointed that his eldest brother, how did he become so good and evil, this kind of thing is what the eldest brother said that he doesn't understand the world, does he understand that the world of people is black and white, is it that good and evil are not clear, if that's the case, he would rather be a fool who doesn't understand the world, he really doesn't want to continue this problem with the eldest brother, so he said

"Big brother, let's not talk about this, it's still the same sentence, I will never shirk my responsibility, and whoever shouldn't be me deliberately put on me, if it doesn't work, I'll sue it. ”

After listening to his younger brother's answer, Wang Qingshan shook his head, if only things were so simple, even if Wang Youmu really won, then can he still stay in the Mining Bureau?

He understands Wang Youmu, let's talk about it when it doesn't work in the end, maybe it's a good thing to let my younger brother taste a little bitterness, maybe my younger brother will change in the future, so he said

"Okay, you can do what you say, but I'll just tell you one thing, don't say anything about Liu Yusheng, I believe what you say is true, but what about others, I'm afraid that someone will make a fuss about these things, and you will be the one who is responsible in the end. ”

"Big brother, I know, otherwise Liu Yusheng would not have been promoted, of course I have to say it to the people of the investigation team, but I won't treat this matter as a rumor and say it everywhere. Wang Youmu said, he understood that this was his brother who cared about him.

"It's good that you know, don't rush to leave if there's nothing to do, your sister-in-law's meal will be ready soon. ”

"Big brother, I won't eat it, I have something to look for you. ”

Looking at Wang Youmu's serious expression, Wang Qingshan asked

"Say something. ”

"I want to take away the jade lion that grandpa left behind. Wang Youmu whispered

This is my sister-in-law Zhu Ling, who has been busy in the kitchen, rushed out and said dissatisfied

"Youmu, you're a little ridiculous, you're going to take the jade lion, I want to ask you why?"

Zhu Ling has always been very dissatisfied with Wang Youmu's last time, her husband worked hard to run back and forth, begging people everywhere to help Wang Youmu, but Wang Youmu actually said that his brother had lost the bottom line of being a man, so after her husband came back, she rushed to Wang Youmu's house and reprimanded him fiercely.

It didn't take long for him to take away the jade lion left by his grandfather, why did he Wang Youmu say that.

"Shut up, I'm talking to Yuki, what are you shouting? Wang Qingshan shouted angrily at his wife.

"Why can't I say it, am I wrong? Zhu Ling responded fearlessly

"What nonsense are you talking about, that jade lion is originally wooden. ”

"Dad raised him since he was a child, Dad passed away, and you have been taking care of him, solving his job, and finding a way to turn him into a regular, you worry about him before and after he has an accident, can't our family do anything worth a jade lion?" Zhu Ling said almost hysterically

Seeing his eldest brother and sister-in-law arguing, Wang Youmu really wanted to leave, but when he thought of Xu Weidong, he could only sit there with his head stubborn.

"Don't mess around here, you don't know about it. Wang Qingshan said a little angrily.

"Okay, I can't talk about you, it's all me messing around, you can do it. After Zhu Ling finished speaking, she ran into the back room crying.

Glancing at his wife who ran into the house, Wang Qingshan turned his head and said to Wang Youmu

"The jade lion was originally left by my grandfather to my uncle, and my father also said to let you take it back, but you said to let me go first, it's no problem for you to take it, I just want to ask, what do you want the jade lion for." ”

Wang Youmu knew that if he said that he would help Xu Weidong, then his brother would definitely not agree, but now that he was ready to fly, there was really nothing he could do, so he could only say

"I'm going to get some cash, I have something on hand to use money. ”

Wang Qingshan never expected that Wang Youmu would actually mortgage this family heirloom, and at the same time he was worried about whether his younger brother had encountered any difficulties, so he asked with concern

"What do you have and how much money do you need?"

Wang Youmu knew that this was the eldest brother's concern for him, but he thought of the pressure on the eldest brother's family, so he said

"Big brother, don't worry, I'm fine, I just want to help the people who have to help, pour some money out, I also mortgage it to acquaintances, and when I have money, I'll redeem it." ”

"Well, since you don't want to say it, I can't help it, you can decide your own affairs. Wang Qingshan sighed and said
