"Uncle Zhou, can I ask a question before I start?" Jia Lei opened his mouth after closing the inner door, and although Zhou Huiji didn't know what he wanted to ask, he still nodded.
"I want to know who told you that Dafuku and I were stealing money?" asked Jia Lei. They must find this villain who ruined their reputation, otherwise their reputation and that of a bunch of children will be ruined.
"No one told us that you stole the money because Dafu's father guessed it himself, and tonight the sister-in-law next door came to my house to buy New Year's paintings, and Dafu's father just found out that Dafu had hidden a lot of money, so he misunderstood!" Zhou explained for his son.
"Grandpa Zhou, if Uncle Zhou just said that I am alone, I wouldn't care about it myself, but now there are more than 30 children who sell God of Wealth with me! For the first time, Jia Lei showed the sharp eyes of an adult man, and looked at the father and son of the Zhou family.
"Jia Lei is right, this is not Chow Tai Fook's business alone! I also went to give the statue of the God of Wealth, and I also have money in my pocket! Is it that my money is also stolen?" Zhou Wen looked at his cousin angrily on the side and said, today his father also asked him where he got the money to buy snacks several times? Fortunately, grandma knew that otherwise he would definitely be beaten like Chow Tai Fook.
Only then did the father and son of the Zhou family realize what a mistake they had made!
I didn't care about asking about money, so I immediately went out and explained to everyone that it was a complete misunderstanding, the children's money was earned by themselves, and there was no problem of stealing at all, Jia Lei even swore that he could come to the door one by one to testify, and ensure that he could tell the origin of every dollar, and the onlookers changed their words one after another, knowing that it was impossible for the hero's son to steal money!
Jia Lei tried his best, he knew that there would still be rumors tomorrow, but he should not be able to guide the direction of public opinion.

Jia Lei opened the curtain and locked it, and the house was cleared inside and out, leaving only the Jia and Zhou families.
"Now that there are no outsiders, we can have a good talk. Jia Lei sat on the chair and spoke, not tall enough to fit the chair.
The most important thing in negotiation is not to weaken the momentum!
On the other side, Sanni had already washed Chow Tai Fook's face and wiped his clothes, and took out the apples, oranges, candies and various New Year's goods at home and put them in the fruit bowl to entertain the guests.
"If there's anything you don't understand, you can just ask now. Jia Lei said in a cool tone.
"You give Wenzi a dime commission to them, how much do you give our family a big blessing?" The old shopkeeper Zhou was the first to ask, and Zhou Huiji and Zhou's mother both turned their heads to look at the old man.
"Dad, why are you asking this? No matter how much money is shared, our Zhou family can't do speculative things!" Zhou Huiji said angrily, he has the unique loftiness of an intellectual.
"Being old and not dying is a thief!" Jia Lei scolded in his heart.
"Bang! Bang!" "Grandpa Zhou is really a master who has stayed abroad, and he has asked the point! It's a pity that I promised Zhou Taifu about this, and I can't say it." Jia Lei gently slapped his palm twice and said that he had promised to keep it secret for the little fat boy.
Jia Lei can't be difficult for Zhou Lao's shopkeeper, he has a way.
"What else can't be said about the money here, Dafu, you come to answer grandpa's question?" Zhou Lao shopkeeper avoided Jia Lei and went directly to ask his grandson, Zhou Dafu looked at the money held by his father and knew that he must not come back!
"The two of us agreed to split it in half, and I will sell a New Year's painting, and Jia Lei will give me five yuan. Chow Tai Fook sobbed a little when he said this, and the pocket money for a year was gone.
My heart hurts! I want to cry!
"Five yuan! How can it be so much? Didn't the children outside give a statue of the God of Wealth for one or two cents!" Zhou's mother said in surprise.
Zhou Wen was very angry when he heard this, and he also wanted to ask Jia Lei to understand, didn't he say that it was best with him? Why did Zhou Taifu take more than himself? His grandmother covered his mouth and did not allow him to interject.
"You're exchanging our Zhou family's reputation for money!" After speaking, the old shopkeeper Zhou lit a bag of cigarettes for himself and smoked it.
"Grandpa Zhou, you're wrong! I'm not exchanging the reputation of the Zhou family for money, I'm exchanging the reputation of Chow Tai Fook for money. Jia Lei replied without blushing at all, and Zhou Hui clenched his fists angrily and blushed.
Jia Lei estimated that if it weren't for his own children from other people's families, Chow Tai Fook would have been beaten long ago.
"Why is your kid's heart so black? You actually exchange other people's reputation for money!" Zhou Huiji was really angry, and he kicked down Jia Lei's basin stand when he raised his foot, and the water in the basin spilled all over the ground.
Jia Lei listened to him screaming and kicking over there, without even raising his eyelids, but still spoke in a cold tone.
"Uncle Zhou, if I were really black-hearted, I wouldn't give half of Dafu's share. Believe it or not! At the beginning, I just gave Daifuku five cents a piece, and he would work for me. Jia Lei said coldly.
"Alright, don't make a fuss! We'll go back when we've made it clear. Old Zhou shopkeeper suddenly stood up and said, and then he took the cigarette pouch and did not greet the others to open the door and leave.
Zhou Huiji angrily glanced at his son, who was still eating over there and was still helping to count the money after being sold!
Only Zhou's mother was still thinking about her son, so she went up and took him by the hand and took Chow Tai Fook away.

"Dafu, did Jia Lei really sell you a New Year's painting for five yuan?" Zhou's mother asked as she pulled her son out the door.
"Of course it's true! I'm selling things fast, and Jia Lei is a big compliment to my ability. He also asked me to go back tomorrow to work together, but unfortunately my father wouldn't let me! Mom, you don't know that I can earn at least a few hundred yuan a day, and yesterday I only took a little more than two hours to sell 20 New Year's paintings! I earned 120 yuan! It's a pity that Jia Lei brought fewer paintings yesterday, otherwise I would have earned 300 yuan a day!" Zhou Dafu said as he stuffed the oranges he took from Jia Lei's house into his mouth, and Zhou's mother suddenly stopped him and didn't leave.
"You can earn 300 yuan a day, you don't lie, right?" Zhou's mother suddenly asked cautiously.
"Don't lie to you, Jia Lei never lies! He said that he could earn 300 yuan! I earned 120 yuan in less than half a day yesterday, didn't you see it? After Chow Tai Fook finished speaking, he threw the last two oranges together in his mouth and chewed them.
Zhou's mother suddenly pulled Chow Tai Fook, pulled him and turned around and walked back, not knowing what she wanted to do.

"Why haven't you come out yet, your mother-in-law is too slow!" Zhou Huiji waited outside for a long time, and couldn't help but come back and knock on the glass of Jia Lei's house and asked.
