Chapter 248: Asking for Help

After dealing with these things, it just so happened that the private detective invited by Lu Changqing also had news.

I don't know if I don't check this, but I really scared the couple when I checked it.

First of all, Zhou Huilan remembered that before her mother-in-law was born, when Duan Zhenghong came back, he said that the wife he married outside had passed away not long ago, and he came back because he missed his hometown.

But in fact, the one Duan Zhenghong married outside is just over sixty this year, and he is physically strong and living well, and listening to the meaning of the private detective's words, Duan Zhenghong started a business abroad and relied on this wife's mother's family.

And Duan Zhenghong actually doesn't have so many children and grandchildren, he has only one son and two grandchildren, and the people who followed him to the Duan family at the beginning were actually usurers.

Duan Zhenghong's son owed a huge amount of loan sharks for gambling abroad, and it was not enough for Duan Zhenghong to fill in all the cash on his books, seeing that the loan sharks were about to cut off his fingers and break his legs at every turn, Duan Zhenghong had no choice, so he said that he wanted to go back to Anning's old house to find money.

Originally, he didn't expect that there would still be anyone in the Duan family, after all, in the past few years, plus he also heard about some domestic markets over the years, what he wanted was to come back and take back the old mansion in the name of his ancestors to dig for gold.

Unexpectedly, his mother-in-law was still alive and had guarded the small courtyard for him for so many years.

"So, it's not a gold digging without a goal at all, Old Man Duan actually knows very well which room has something buried underground, but it's just a trick to fool his mother-in-law!"

It's not just her mother-in-law, at first, Zhou Huilan saw Duan Zhenghong's digging method in the room, and thought that he was digging aimlessly, but if he came because his son owed a loan shark and had a goal, there would definitely be more than this box of gold under Duan's old mansion.

What's more, in the room where she was leveled down before......

Zhou Huilan suddenly looked at Lu Changqing, and she thought of another possibility, "Is it possible that there is more than just a box of gold under that room?" So digging out the first box, Duan Zhenghong didn't rush to send it out? ”

Lu Changqing was also taken aback by Zhou Huilan's idea, but quickly understood, "It's not impossible, but there are workers living in the yard now, and they can't blatantly dig like this, after all, there are many people." ”

At the beginning, the box of gold was indeed very eye-catching, but it was the workers who discovered it first, and there was really no way, and everyone would think that it was hidden under the courtyard by the mother-in-law before her death.

But if another box is dug out from the ground, the news can't be hidden, and I'm afraid that the whole Songbai Street will be in chaos.

Therefore, Duan Zhenghong has changed his strategy now and let go of Zhou Huilan's side to acquire other houses, presumably he also understands this truth.

So Zhou Huilan discussed it with Lu Changqing, and decided to start with the old house of the Duan family on Songbai Street like Duan Zhenghong.

It's just that Duan Zhenghong's idea is to buy it from the private sector, because he doesn't understand the complex relationship between the staff dormitories during the special period, but Zhou Huilan knows it clearly at the right time and place.

And knowing that Duan Zhenghong actually didn't have much money in his hands, he was a little more confident.

That night, Zhou Huilan specially made a box of lard, carried a big bag of melon seeds, bought apples and bananas on the way, and knocked on the door of the Huang family.

It was Uncle Huang who opened the door, he was wearing an apron and holding a spatula in his hand, and when he saw that it was Zhou Huilan, he was obviously stunned for a moment.

Zhou Huilan was also shocked by Huang Hanqing's dress, and was stunned for a while before she came to her senses, "Uncle Huang, are you cooking yourself?" ”

Huang Hanqing grinned, and received the spatula behind his back with some embarrassment, "Huilan, it's good that you're here, hurry up, come and help me." He took the things in Zhou Huilan's hand and hurriedly let the person into the house.

When the things were put down, Zhou Huilan was dragged to the kitchen by him, and the mess was as if it had just been bombarded by a missile, which stunned Zhou Huilan.

"Uncle Huang, what are you doing here? What about Aunt Wen? Zhou Huilan remembered that these two people were not good at cooking, and they were all simple cooks, and they were basically done by Dr. Wen.

But in this kitchen today, there is not only a fish trying to turn over in the pot, but also onions, potatoes, cabbage, radishes and other messes on the ground, and I can't figure out what kind of dish this is trying to do, but the raw materials are fancy enough.

Huang Hanqing also glanced at the kitchen along Zhou Huilan's gaze, and scratched her head a little embarrassed, "I'm not retired, today happens to be your Aunt Wen's birthday, I just thought about giving her a surprise, but it seems that this level is a little far away......"

Zhou Huilan couldn't help but laugh, took the spatula in Huang Hanqing's hand, and pushed the person out, "Uncle Huang, let me help you, you said that I didn't know that today was Aunt Wen's birthday, and I didn't prepare anything, I'll help you cook this meal." ”

Huang Hanqing immediately felt like he had been amnestied, and he hurriedly wiped his sweat.

But he didn't leave the kitchen, just stood at the door and watched Zhou Huilan cook from a distance, and he got a small notebook out of nowhere, taking notes while reading it.

Braised carp with green onions, braised pork with potatoes, stir-fried three fresh vegetables with garlic and oil, and finally served with a cucumber and seaweed soup, it is not very rich, but Zhou Huilan has tried her best to match the existing ingredients.

As soon as the last dish was served, Dr. Moon came back from outside.

Huang Hanqing conjured a bouquet of roses out of nowhere, and greeted it with a smile, this romance made Zhou Huilan really feel that her bulb was a little too bright.

She thought about coming back another day, but was dragged down by Dr. Wen.

Zhou Huilan couldn't shirk it, so she sat down to celebrate Dr. Wen's birthday.

After the meal was almost finished, Dr. Wen took the initiative to ask Zhou Huilan about her intention today.

"My birthday, the children don't remember it, you must not have come to celebrate my birthday on purpose, do you need our help with anything?"

Dr. Wen was so understanding, but Zhou Huilan blushed, but she didn't squirm, and said generously: "There is indeed something that needs Uncle Huang's favor." ”

Huang Hanqing nodded, "But girl, your Uncle Huang is not the director of the Anning City Public Security Bureau now, in case I can't do this, you don't have to be angry." ”

Zhou Huilan hurriedly smiled and shook her head, "Uncle Huang is so powerful, even if he retires, he is just as powerful." ”

Just like Zhou Zhenhai has been retired for more than ten years, some old friends and subordinates, a phone call in the past is also very face-saving, not to mention that Huang Hanqing has only been retired for a long time.
