Chapter 806: If You Don't Want to Listen, Then Get Out

The two sat for a while, then left together.

After walking down the slope for a stretch, the village chief looked at the party secretary: "Does the village want to get involved in this?"

The party secretary put his hands behind his back again: "From now on, will the village's Miss and lads still find partners? Our Willow Village absolutely cannot produce two reform-through-labor prisoners."

The village chief let out a heavy sigh: "Then let's stop by the Liu family on the way and see what they think."

But the moment the two arrived at the Liu family's door, they saw quite a few villagers gathered in twos and threes outside: "What are you all crowding here for? Don't you have work to do at home?"

Seeing the party secretary's expression turn sour, everyone quickly dispersed.

Seeing the people gone, the two then entered the Liu family's courtyard.

Before they even entered the house, they heard a woman's voice: "Since we have my second uncle's work unit address and phone number, what are we waiting for? This matter started because of him in the first place, and given our current situation we don't have the ability to fish him out, do we."

"We definitely need to contact him, but even if we reach him, if the Xiao family doesn't agree, isn't there still nothing we can do?"

"Although this is our family's matter, it also affects the village's reputation. Once we've communicated with that side, naturally we'll still need the village cadres and the clan members to step forward. Even if the Xiao family's old man hates grandpa and grandma more than anything, if second uncle—no, Uncle Xiao—is willing to reconcile, this matter is sure to work out."

The party secretary and the village chief exchanged a glance, didn't enter the house, turned around and walked out of the courtyard again.

Since there was someone who understood things, they wouldn't meddle for the time being.

They'd better wait and see what that side says after the Liu family gets in touch with the second son.

The Liu family acted quickly this time, because with Ding Surong's involvement, they soon got through to the person, stated their identity straight out, and explained the purpose of the call. Han Huaiming was silent for a long time.

On this end of the phone, Ding Surong: "Hello, second uncle, are you listening?"

Han Huaiming pressed his forehead and replied: "I'm listening. I know about this matter. You talk to that side first and see what the final result is. If it's within my ability, I'm willing to take it on. But you also know that now I have no more ties to the Han family, and everything I previously got from the Han family has to be returned, so if the conditions they put forward are too harsh, I'm afraid I can't meet them."

Because the phone call was too expensive, once that side agreed, this side hung up.

After hanging up, Han Huaiming was truly at his wits' end at this moment. Finally making it to the end of the workday, he hurried out of the office door.

As soon as he entered the house, he heard it was very lively inside: "Mom, what did Dad call us back for?"

"I'm not too sure either. He went to the capital a few days ago, and he's been acting strange ever since he came back."

Han Huaiming pushed the door open and came in at just that moment: "I called you back, naturally because I have something to tell you."

His wife Tian Suinian knew what he had gone to the capital to do, but what exactly had happened there in the capital, she truly didn't know—after all, the man had locked himself in his study the moment he got back.

Han Huaiming set down his briefcase, swept a glance at the few people in the room: "All sit down. There's something I need to tell you."

His youngest son Han Hongtao sat on the back of the sofa: "Dad, what's the matter? Why do you look so serious?"

Han Huaiming looked at his wife: "Pour me a cup of tea."

Tian Suinian nodded lightly: "Okay."

Han Huaiming cleared his throat lightly before speaking: "You all know about my going back to the capital to acknowledge my relatives before, except it ended in a farce in the end."

Han Hongtao said, a bit impatient: "Dad, what exactly are you trying to say? Hurry up and say it, I've got plans with classmates."

Han Huaiming was already irritable; hearing his youngest son's words, he directly roared: "If you don't want to listen, then get out."

This startled everyone in the room—after all, Han Huaiming had never spoken to them this loudly before.
