Chapter 381: Speech
Yang Laotian chattered, the preface did not match the afterword, Yang Xiaoman asked for a long time and did not ask what happened to his brother.
In the end, I learned the reason in the neighbor's gossip description.
When it was just dark, Yang Xiaoman's brother was escorted home by a group of people, saying that he owed them 100,000 yuan.
Yang Xiaoman's brother's name is Yang Xiaoqing, he is twenty years old, he is idle all day long, and his neighbors are not surprised by what he does.
Yang Laotian hurriedly asked Yang Xiaoqing what was going on, but Yang Xiaoqing refused to tell the ins and outs, only saying that he had fallen into a trap for gambling money and asked him to save him, Yang Laotian was in a hurry at that time.
He saw that his son was beaten and his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and he felt that he must have been bullied, so he immediately stepped forward to theorize, and was pushed by someone, his skin was broken, and his face was blue.
"Yang Xiaoqing, your mother is a coward, do you understand whether you admit gambling and lose? That IOU was forced by us to sign it with a knife?" The first gangster opened his mouth and scolded: "Why are you red-eyed in gambling and insist on borrowing money, saying that you have money in your family, and there are seven or eight houses, what about your fucking house?"
The man scolded and slapped Yang Xiaoqing, Yang Xiaoqing was not resistant to pain, and was beaten and shouted, "Dad, Dad, help me! Dad!"
Yang Laotian felt sorry for his son, and hurriedly begged the other party to stop fighting, "Our family has a house, we have a house, and this one is my house!"
"There's a house and a fart, hurry up and get the money!" the other party said viciously.
"Take, take, but I don't have that much money!" Yang Laotian called poor.
"And how much money do you have?
"Hey!" Yang Laotian hurriedly ran back to rummage through the cabinets, and after looking for a long time, he found two thousand yuan, which was still taken from Yang Xiaoman's room.
"So little?" the other party took the money and scolded, "Such a small amount of money is enough for a fart!
"It's really gone!" Yang Laotian cried poorly: "There is no one in the family to make money, and I sit and eat every day, and I really have no money to save, and these are still my daughter's dowry!"
"Don't you still have a house, don't you charge a lot of rent every month?" asked with a smile, "I think your life as a charter man is quite nourishing!"
"Ouch, didn't I give birth to such a loser, every month so much rent was lost by this loser!" Yang Laotian became more and more angry the more he said, "Whatever you do with this bastard! The money is only two thousand, and there is no more!"
"Isn't it a scoundrel with me?" the leader of the gangsters said: "Don't look at how many eyes Lord Ma has!"
The leader of the gangsters waved his head to his subordinates, and his subordinates took out matches and lit a pile of firewood in the courtyard, and the flames rose into the air, causing the onlookers to retreat in fright.
"Old fellow, you'd better get acquainted, or your house may turn into a pile of ashes one day!" the leader of the gangsters threatened, "I advise you to sell the house to ransom your son, and if I don't see the money in three days, I promise that your son will not be all bearded and tailed!"
The gangsters dragged Yang Xiaoqing away, and everyone present dared to step forward to stop them, and when these people left, everyone dared to extinguish the flames in the courtyard.

"Xiaoman, our family is falling this day!What will we do in the future?!" Yang Laotian pulled Yang Xiaoman and cried.
Yang Xiaoman looked at him with snot and tears, and felt a little uncomfortable, she picked up Yang Laotian, "Dad, it's okay, let's just find a way to get my brother back." ”
"Those people are specialized in loan sharking, your brother's little rabbit cub borrowed 100,000 yuan, and I don't know how much I have to repay!" Yang Laotian came from the sadness, "I'm afraid our house can't be saved!"
"Then do you want a son, or do you want a house?" Yang Xiaoman saw that Yang Laotian had been crying and crying, and he had no responsibility at all, and he was also a little annoyed in his heart.
Yang Laotian wiped a handful of tears and whimpered: "Your brother wants it too, and the house too!"
"Then you just guard your house and wait for my brother to be broken!" Yang Xiaoman said angrily.
Taozi has been standing next to him for a long time, and he can't help but interject: "Can we find the police?"
"Don't intervene if you don't know!" Yang Xiaoman said angrily, "Go back to the house and rest early!"
Seeing this, Taozi didn't say much, helped clean up the ashes in the yard, and went back to the house alone.

On this day, several young people who were about to graduate from college pedaled their bicycles in the summer, and it took a lot of effort to find the location of the "New Career Study Abroad Counseling and Training School" mentioned on the poster.
A few people were sweating profusely, and when they arrived at the place, they found that it was a theater hidden in the alley, and it should have been a lot of time to see the decoration outside.
"Old Yu, you're not in the wrong place, are you? Is this the place?" asked a boy with rimless glasses.
Lao Yu is quite tall, with an inch head, a Chinese face, and dark skin, wiping the sweat on his forehead, and taking a closer look at the poster he is holding in his hand, "It's here, that's right!"
Another boy who was a little shorter and fatter said, "It's unlikely, Zhong Yuemin can give a lecture in such a place?
"Impossible, the boss of the new future specifically told me that Zhong Yuemin was his child!"
"Hey, I heard that there is a technology that can combine two photos together, did you happen to this?" said the short and fat boy.
"Xiao Ping, do you really have this kind of technique, where did you see it?" the man with glasses said curiously.
"When I read it in a foreign magazine, it seems to be Japanese technology, but I forgot whether it was Fuji's technology or NEC's technology!" Xiao Ping said.
"If you want me to say, we can't afford to go to such great lengths to come here!" The man with glasses said: "We both have our visas down, and we are waiting to go to an American university for further study and realize the American dream, maybe we will be more successful than Zheng Yuemin at that time!
Lao Yu's face suddenly darkened, and he was one of the three people who did not apply to an American university, and this frustration made him feel painful.
Xiao Ping was more tactful, noticed Lao Yu's emotions, and said: "Wang Qiang, this is not right, Lao Yu is also kind, I want us to learn from Zhong Yuemin, a senior, since we are here, let's listen carefully!"
"Okay, it's all here, you can't just go back. Wang Qiang responded, "Old Yu, is it here?"
Lao Yu was not very comfortable in his heart, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
Xiao Ping smiled and said, "No need to ask, it's right here!"
Wang Qiang and Lao Yu followed his gaze to the entrance of the alley, and groups of people rushed over, men and women, old and young, cyclists, and walkers.
"Hurry up!" Xiao Ping reacted quickly, pulling the two of them and rushing to the theater, "If it's a little later, there will be no place to sit!"
……
"New Career Study Abroad Counseling Class Enrollment Conference and Zhong Yuemin's First Lecture", a long banner hung at the door of the theater, and a large poster with Zhong Yuemin's head stood next to it.
The lecture began at ten o'clock on time, but before half past nine, the theater, which could accommodate a thousand people, was already packed, and the people in the back sat on the floor in the aisle without a seat.
On a hot day, the theater was crowded with so many people, only a few ceiling fans creaked and turned, and everyone was sweating profusely.
Lao Yu, Xiao Ping, and Wang Qiang sat happily in the middle of the first row, fanning their fans constantly.
Xiao Pingle said: "I'm still clever, let's occupy such a good position, those individuals must be envious to death!"
"This son is too hard, when he first sat down, he was still dirty, what kind of new future is this reliable?" Wang Qiang said disgustedly.
"They just started their business, and the conditions are really difficult!" said Lao Yu, "just wipe it." ”
"Hey, Lao Yu, why have you been talking about the new future today, is it that their fat boss has given you any benefits?" Wang Qiang complained.
"No, no. Lao Yu paused, "Their boss, Brother Qian, can talk to me quite well, and sometimes ask me to help them." ”
"What help?" Xiao Ping suddenly realized: "No wonder you were mysterious some time ago, and you always disappeared!"
"Just give him some questions, thank you for the answer ideas. Lao Yu said embarrassedly, and finally emphasized, "Nothing special!"
"What's the problem?" Xiao Ping asked, "I won't lie to you to work for nothing for her, right?"
"It looks like a TOEFL question, but they may be making up a booklet to take the TOEFL test. The work is not over yet, and when it is finished, the money will be paid. ”
"No, at the level of your class bottom, you still make a workbook for others?" Wang Qiang said disdainfully: "Don't mistake people's children!"
"Wang Qiang, it's too hurtful for you to talk like this!" Xiao Ping hurriedly interrupted him, "Lao Yu is from Peking University, and he still does it to make up a booklet!"
Xiao Ping stopped Wang Qiang, and said to Lao Yu: "Old Yu, don't take it to heart, Wang Qiang's arrogant temperament will suffer sooner or later! But I also have to remind you, you are now running a school, but don't make a mistake at this juncture!"
Lao Yu nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know the severity." ”
······
When Zhong Yuemin arrived at the place, it was almost ten o'clock, and the fat man who was waiting at the door of the theater was sweating profusely, and when he saw the car that picked up Zhong Yuemin coming, he trotted to meet him.
"Ouch, Master Zhong, you're here! Didn't I pick up your car before nine o'clock? Why did it take so long to get here?!" The fat man opened the door for Zhong Yuemin.
"Halfway through, I suddenly wanted to eat fried liver, so I took a detour to eat a bowl and delayed my efforts. Zhong Yuemin said.
"Ouch, tell me what you want to eat, I'll prepare it for you!" said the fat man.
"That's not good, you have to eat the fried liver just out of the pot, there is no heat on the surface, it can burn people to death, and it can be sucked along the edge of the bowl in a small bite!"
Qian Fatzi hurriedly said: "My Zhong Ye! If you want to suck slowly, the inside of the field will soon explode!
"What's the hurry, I brought you something to cool down!" Zhong Yuemin waved his hand, and the bolt pillar led someone to open the cold drink truck for special delivery, and unloaded boxes below.
"Hey, hey, you're going to make a big popsicle giveaway!" said the fat man happily, "Get me one first!"
"Take it as you like!" Zhong Yuemin said, "Bolt Zhu, how much money did you spend just now, go back and get the list to find the fat man for reimbursement!"
"Hey, don't bring this, I'm just starting out in this stall, how can I withstand such a toss!" The fat man immediately lost interest in eating popsicles.
······
On the third day of Yang Xiaoqing's arrest, the house still hadn't been sold, and Yang Xiaoman's father and daughter sat at home with sad faces, helpless.
"Dad, why don't we sell it?"
"No!" Yang Laotian flatly refused, "These people saw that our family was in trouble, so they all took advantage of the fire to rob it, and only gave 30,000 yuan for such a good house!"
"We are in a hurry to ask for money, so we can only sell it cheaply, otherwise what will my brother do?" Yang Xiaoman said: "We can't really care about my brother's life or death, right?"
"That loser is just dead!" Yang Laotian cursed: "This time the house is going to be ruined, then what can I do for the rest of my life!"
When Yang Laotian talked about his sadness, his tears flowed again.
"Dad, don't cry, it's useless for you to dry your tears!" Yang Xiaoman said: "People matter, money can be earned again, and houses can be bought again!"
"Ouch, why is my life so miserable······"
Taozi entered the house at this time, pulling Yang Xiaoqing, who was in tattered clothes, "Xiaoman, your brother is back!"
Yang Xiaoman and Yang Laotian couldn't believe the scene in front of them, first they were shocked, then they were overjoyed, and ran forward to see Yang Xiaoqing's condition.
"Brother, are you okay?" Yang Xiaoman said hurriedly.
"Ouch! don't touch it blindly!" Yang Xiaoqing was touched by the wound, grinning in pain, "You see that I was beaten like this, can I be okay?!"
Yang Laotian surrounded his son, "Son, why are you back?"
Yang Xiaoqing shook his head at Taozi in a daze, "You ask him!"
Yang Laotian and Yang Xiaoman both looked at Taozi, and Yang Xiaoman spoke first: "Taozi, what's going on, why are those people suddenly willing to let my brother come back?"
"I went to negotiate with them. Taozi said: "I told them that the house is an illegal building built by you, and it can't be bought, but you can collect one or two thousand rents every month, and this debt will be deducted from these rents, so that they have a stable income every month." ”
"As soon as you say that, they will release them?" Yang Xiaoman said incredulously.
"I also told them that if they didn't let them go, I would immediately go to the police and accuse them of kidnapping, and I would immediately beat them up, maybe I would eat peanuts. Taozi said: "Maybe they were scared, so let them go." ”
"Taozi, you are really amazing!" Yang Xiaoman said happily.
Yang Laotian broke out: "What a fart! The rent has been used to pay off the debt, what do you eat and drink at home?! I think he is just nosy!"
"Dad, we have hands and feet and can't starve to death!" Yang Xiaoman said angrily, "As long as our family is neat and tidy, it is more important than anything else!"
"Hmph!" Yang Laotian simply entered the house.
"Brother, don't gamble anymore in the future, the family is already poor. ”
"Don't be verbose! Hurry up and buy me medicine, it hurts me to death!"
