78 Chapter 78
He Yao came home after a day's walk, and the old man told her that the price of selling those shops today was better than she thought, but it was not a big amount. He Yao was thinking about going to meet that Wang translator again tomorrow and asking him what Batkin had done recently.
Although he had been running outside for a day, He Yao did not have any appetite. Mrs. He muttered to her, "The body is her own, don't your father didn't come out, if you are sick again, there will be no one in this family who can point to it at that time." โ
He Yao was afraid that she would continue to chatter, so she sent a few more mouthfuls of rice to her mouth. looked at the rice grains on the chopsticks and remembered what Lin Hongwen said, so he asked Mrs. He, "Mother, is the rice sold in our grain and oil shop really mixed with mold?" โ
Mrs. He glanced at her, "It's just the two of us now, so it's okay for you to ask." But if it's when your second mother and third mother are there, don't ask, they may not know what to say to your father. โ
"Is that true?" He Yao asked.
"Your father, who doesn't care about other people's lives when he makes money," Mrs. He said, "In the early years, when we were in Hulan City, there were a few years when the harvest was not good, so I persuaded him to collect less rent and let those tenants slow down." He counted me down and said that I was a woman who knew a piece of. Later, others reduced the rent, and he said that people were false and righteous. Since then, I have not persuaded him again, but I actually know a little about rice. At that time, when he heard that there was going to be a war, he collected a lot of grain as if he had earned his life, and you know that grain is such a thing, and it will not be bad if you put it away well for three or three years or two years. But who is he the careful person, the roof of the warehouse shed is leaking, and he doesn't say that he should repair it quickly, and he doesn't say that the damp rice should be thrown away quickly. When I think about it, I lose money if I throw it away, and I can't sell it if I don't throw it away, what should I do? I had to add something to wash it and mix it in good rice to sell. Alas, I don't blame people for scolding him, it's really a lack of great virtue! โ
He Yao listened to it for a long time and didn't speak, and Mrs. He said again, "If you are in charge of the house in the future, don't be like your father." โ
He Yao responded, barely ate a few more mouthfuls of food, and said that he was going back to his room to rest. Mrs. He saw that she really had no appetite, so she stopped persuading. He Yao went back to the house and lay down against the head of the bed for a while, and when she was a little sleepy, she suddenly heard someone knocking on the window. She estimated that it should be Shen Lie, so she hurriedly went to open the window. Shen Lie was originally tall, and he turned in with his hand. He Yao leaned out of the window and looked around, and when he saw that there was no one, he carefully closed the window again.
Shen Lie didn't know how long he had been outside, and the cold air on his body warmed up for a while before he asked, "Is your father-in-law okay?" โ
"I dredged up and down the police station, but no one tortured him, but he was worried every day, life was not easy, and his hair was gray," He Yao said truthfully.
"It's a pity that my time at Hezhong Commercial Bank was too short to help me," Shen Lie said, "What happened to my father-in-law?" โ
"Seeing that he was in a hurry yesterday, he didn't have time to elaborate", He Yao relayed what He Gui told her to Shen Lie again, "He said that Lin Hongwen is the boss of Hezhong Commercial Bank, do you notice?" โ
Shen Lie thought for a while and said, "The boss treats him differently than others, you usually talk to me and me, and the meal is also at the same table, if he is also the boss, then these can be explained." But you also saw it at noon today, he cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks for lunch, if he is really the boss, how can he do these things? โ
"I don't know, but maybe he did it on purpose for you and the rest of the guys," He Yao said, "According to my father, it's not unusual for him to do these things." โ
"Is there anything I can help you with?" Shen Lie asked.
"Not for the time being," He Yao said, "Actually, I can't do much, but I just bribe those Russians, hoping that they will be more particular and really take people's money โกโก." You'd better keep an eye on those people at the United Firm, have they been doing anything lately? โ
"A few days ago, Xu Qingzhi asked me to stare at Drunken Rouge, saying that if anyone is not good for Miss Ru Ting, tell him immediately", Shen Lie said, "I think that Miss Ru Ting should have something to do with this matter." โ
He Yao is no stranger to the name Ru Ting, and for a while she always heard her Erniang and Sanniang mention it, saying that He Gui was fascinated by a fox spirit named Ru Ting, and ran to Peach Blossom Lane when he saw the sky.
"Maybe her father told her something, and she told Lin Hongwen's gang again", He Yao said, "โกโก is ruthless, and the drama is meaningless, I think she is afraid that my father will come out alive to take revenge on her." โ
"And what do you mean?" Shen Lie asked tentatively.
"Don't touch her yet", He Yao said, "Wait until I see my father again, ask carefully before making plans." โ
"Okay", Shen Lie responded, "If there is nothing else, I will leave first, let people hear, you should not be able to tell." โ
He Yao nodded, stared at Shen Lie's worn cuffs and said, "Brother Lie, when this matter is over, I will tell my father, don't let you do this kind of thing again." โ
Shen Lie smiled bitterly and said, "My father-in-law won't agree." โ
"You gave him life and death for so many years, and you have paid off everything you owe, not to mention that in the end, he just saved you on the way to escape", He Yao said, "I heard my mother say yesterday, my brother doesn't know when he smoked a big cigarette, even if my father can come out alive this time, I am afraid that he will not hand over the family business to him to take care of." In the future, I will be in charge of the affairs of the He family, and I say that you can leave, and you can leave. โ
Shen Lie looked at He Yao with more hope in his eyes, "When I see you this time, I feel completely different from before." โ
"From the day my father was taken away, I was reborn," He Yao said.
"Before your father-in-law comes back, you have a lot to do, what do you need my help with?" Shen Lie asked.
He Yao smiled and said, "You don't have to do anything, just keep an eye on those people, and you don't have to worry about other things." By the way, where you live now, it will be easier to find you in the future. โ
Shen Lie picked up the pen and wrote a note to her, and as soon as the last word was written, he heard footsteps walking towards He Yao's room, so he quickly opened the window and jumped out.
He Yao heard the door being knocked three times, and listening to this strength, it should be Mrs. He, so she hurriedly opened the door. Mrs. He stood outside with a bowl of gruel, "You don't eat much at night, are you hungry at this time?" โ
He Yao didn't want to upset her, so she said, "It's really a little." โ
Mrs. He watched her finish the porridge, and then left satisfied. He Yao blew out the oil lamp and lay on the bed, his eyes were wide open in the dark, and his previous tiredness was swept away.
The He family's shop sold one after another, but the money was not enough. He Yao was given another opportunity to visit He Gui five days later, and He Gui had not changed much compared to the last time. It's just that the eyebrows are lifeless, and there is no longer the same look as before. He told He Yao that Batkin had promised to let him out in the past few days, and the reason why he hadn't released him now must be because he didn't have enough money. He Yao reassured him, saying that the senior officials of the Railway Bureau had already collected a lot of money, and he believed that Batkin would not dare to be too presumptuous.
He Gui was a little relieved, and asked again, "Have you got in touch with Brother Lie?" โ
He Yao nodded, "Brother Lie said that Xu Qingzhi asked him to stare at the drunken rouge, for fear that someone would be unfavorable to Miss Ru Ting." โ
"What? Lin Hongwen's kid hasn't redeemed her yet? He Gui smiled contemptuously, "Then he really crossed the river and demolished the bridge." โ
"So Ru Ting really has something to do with this matter?" He Yao asked.
"It's not just about it," He Gui said, "and she has half of the credit for getting this step in the field." Now I don't know when I'll be able to go out, Lin Hongwen's gang is not easy to do, but she's an abandoned child, so there's no need to keep it anymore. โ
He Yao understood and began to think about it when he left the police station. He Gui wanted Ru Ting to die to vent his hatred, but she was different, Ru Ting's death was not good for her. But how can this matter be made to be somewhat beneficial, He Yao thought about the whole thing carefully. According to what He Gui said, Lin Hongwen crossed the river and demolished the bridge, and after the profit, he didn't care whether Ru Ting lived or died. But Shen Lie said that Xu Qingzhi asked him to stare at the drunken rouge, and if he found that someone was unfavorable to Ru Ting, he would immediately report the letter. That is to say, these two people are quite different on this matter. One didn't care about it, the other wanted to help, He Yao hooked the corners of his mouth, since they already had a disagreement, then simply let this difference be bigger.
After nightfall, He Yao gently knocked on Shen Lie's door, and the two discussed for nearly an hour before they could be discussed.
At eight o'clock the next night, a group of people rushed into the drunken rouge, and pulled Ru Ting's hair without saying a word and walked out. The old bustard had never seen this battle, and he was dumbfounded, and when he came back to his senses, the group had already come out of the drunken rouge, only to see them throw Ru Ting into the carriage, and then run away in the carriage. The old bustard led a group of people to chase for a while, and then he couldn't catch up anymore.
Two moments later, Shen Lie gasped and rushed into the United Commercial House, telling Xu Qingzhi that a group of people had taken Ru Ting away from the drunken rouge. Xu Qingzhi didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately rushed to Peach Blossom Lane with him. The two walked from one end of the alley to the other, and found no trace of Ru Ting. I asked a few people, but I only said that after the carriage was Peach Blossom Lane, it turned left, and no one knew where to go after that. Shen Lie said, "Boss, it's really not good, let's just look for it in the alleys." If they want to take revenge on Miss Ru Ting, or take her far away, then we will definitely not be able to find her. Either they were brought to the nearest back street alley. โ
Xu Qingzhi couldn't think of a better way, so he had to go down alley by alley with Shen Lie. After the two looked for seven or eight alleys, they finally saw Ru Ting, who was covered in injuries. Ru Ting shrunk in the corner, her forehead was broken, and half of her face was red with blood. Xu Qingzhi wanted to see the wound on her forehead, and accidentally touched her arm, Ru Tingse shrank back, "It hurts." โ
Xu Qingzhi estimated that her arm might be fractured, but it was unknown if there were fractures elsewhere. So I could only tell her, "You have to endure the pain, I have to take you to the hospital." โ
Xu Qingzhi carried He Yao into the carriage, and his clothes were also stained with blood, but he couldn't take care of these at this moment. Shen Lie turned around and asked him, "Where are you going?" โ
Xu Qingzhi thought that if Ru Ting was brought back to the hospital at this time, Aunt Feng had already gone home, and Xu Shihuai would not be convenient for her to examine at all, so he said to Shen Lie, "Go to the railway hospital." 166 Reading Network
