"Where is Yang Xiaocai? Take me to see him!"

Zhang Zhongtian immediately saw through that Yang Xiaocai was behind this. This guy usually cheated and played tricks, committing small offenses, and Zhang Zhongtian wouldn't normally stoop to his level. But today, at the wedding of Wang Changgen's two sons, using Liang Xinghua's mother's death to pull such a stunt, eating such a human flesh steamed bun, Zhang Zhongtian couldn't stand it.

"He's right outside the main hall!"

Wang Changgen hurriedly took Zhang Zhongtian out of the wedding hall. Just as they stepped out the door, they saw Yang Xiaocai standing in the corner by the toilet door from afar.

Yang Xiaocai looked up and found that the ones who returned were not just Wang Changgen alone.

Wang Changgen actually brought Zhang Zhongtian along too!

He knew his little scheme had been seen through.

So without another word, he hurriedly turned around and left.

"Yang Xiaocai, stop right there!"

Zhang Zhongtian shouted loudly.

But Yang Xiaocai seemed not to hear his words and ran away at once.

Both Zhang Zhongtian and Wang Changgen wanted to chase him.

But Zhang Zhongtian was very old, and Wang Changgen had a whole body of foundation illnesses, so how could they catch up with Yang Xiaocai?

So in the end, Yang Xiaocai just ran away like that.

Zhang Zhongtian had Liang Xinghua's phone number. He called Liang Xinghua to ask if Liang Xinghua had sent Yang Xiaocai to demand money from Wang Changgen.

Once asked, the truth was immediately revealed.

"No, how would I be embarrassed to ask Uncle Changgen for compensation? My mom hanged herself in his building. His building probably can't be lived in anymore."

"Then why did Yang Xiaocai say it was you who asked him to demand eighty thousand yuan from Uncle Changgen?"

"Yang Xiaocai did come to persuade me before, saying I could take the opportunity to ask Uncle Changgen for some money. But I felt that was a bit against my conscience. My mom's death, bottom line, was her own doing. If she hadn't gone to dig up Uncle Changgen's ancestral grave, nothing would have happened. How could I be embarrassed to ask Uncle Changgen for compensation?"

After the truth came out, Wang Changgen breathed a sigh of relief.

If Liang Xinghua really came to demand compensation from him, he probably would have had to give it.

Fortunately, Liang Xinghua was more reasonable.

"Secretary Zhang, let me say a few words to Xinghua."

Wang Changgen took Zhang Zhongtian's phone and said to Liang Xinghua:

"Xinghua, you're so reasonable, I'm relieved now. About the compensation, let's sit down and talk properly after my two sons' wedding ends. What do you think?"

But Liang Xinghua said:

"Uncle Changgen, you don't need to compensate me. My mom caused you trouble. I'm really sorry."

Wang Changgen hurriedly said:

"I want it, I want it. Compensation is definitely needed. After all, the dead are the greatest. I'll talk to you properly later."

After hanging up Liang Xinghua's phone, Zhang Zhongtian called Yang Xiaocai again.

As the Village Committee Secretary of Shangou Village, he almost had every villager's contact number.

So naturally he had Yang Xiaocai's phone number too.

He called twice, but Yang Xiaocai didn't answer.

By the third time, Yang Xiaocai reluctantly answered.

As soon as he spoke, he hurriedly apologized:

"Secretary Zhang, I'm really sorry."

Zhang Zhongtian said coldly:

"What's the use of apologizing to me? You need to apologize to Changgen. We're from the same village. You can't avoid seeing each other. How could you deceive him like that!"

Yang Xiaocai gave a dry laugh and quibbled:

"Wasn't it because I thought Liang Xinghua was too pitiful? I just wanted to help him get some money. He's thin-skinned and embarrassed to ask Wang Changgen himself, so I came to ask for him. I was doing a good thing."

"You're still quibbling. Do you believe I'll report you to the police and have you arrested! You know this is fraud, don't you!"

Zhang Zhongtian coldly scolded.

This time he was really angry.

Before, no matter who he dealt with, he was always kind and gentle.

But this time with Yang Xiaocai, he just couldn't be kind anymore.

Because Yang Xiaocai had really gone too far.

"Secretary Zhang, no, I know I was wrong."

Yang Xiaocai hurriedly begged for mercy, then made excuses for himself:

"Not long ago I lost a lot of money in town and owed a buttload of debt. I had no choice. Secretary Zhang, can you understand me?"

Yang Xiaocai finally told the truth.

He now owed others high-interest loans. His son working outside was unpromising, earning only three or four thousand yuan a month, and had no money to bring home.

So he had these crooked thoughts.

Originally he wanted to persuade Liang Xinghua to go with him to blackmail Wang Changgen for a sum.

But Liang Xinghua was unwilling to do this.

So he secretly did it himself.

He thought, using Liang Xinghua's name to blackmail Wang Zhanggen for a sum, pay off the usury loan immediately after getting the money, then rush to the city to seek refuge with his son; even if Wang Zhanggen learned the truth afterward, he could do nothing about him.

Only a pity that his scheme, seemingly flawless, was eventually exposed.

If not for his Lion's Big Mouth demanding eighty thousand yuan all at once—Wang Zhanggen couldn't produce it and didn't want to ask his son, so helplessly he had to seek help from Zhang Zhongtian, and this matter might really have been successfully concealed by him through Funeral Deception.

"Hurry back and personally apologize to Wang Zhanggen!"

Zhang Zhongtian coldly ordered.

Yang Xiaocai resisted, dryly laughing:

"Can I go apologize to Wang Zhanggen tomorrow? There are so many people at the Wedding Venue; if I apologize to him there, wouldn't that be losing Face?"

Zhang Zhongtian laughed in anger:

"You still have the nerve to care about Face?"

Yang Xiaocai hurriedly said:

"Party Secretary Zhang, I have other things to do, so I won't chat anymore. I guarantee I'll go apologize to Wang Zhanggen tomorrow. Bye!"

After saying this, Yang Xiaocai quickly hung up the phone.

Zhang Zhongtian was very angry, but could do nothing about it.

After all, Yang Xiaocai had already run off to who knows where.

To catch him back and make him apologize to Wang Zhanggen was almost impossible.

"Party Secretary Zhang, let's just drop this matter. Anyway, I didn't lose any Wealth."

Wang Zhanggen said this at this time.

Today was the auspicious day of his two sons' Wedding Ceremony; Zhou Aidi's death was already Unlucky enough, and he didn't want to add more Unluckiness to the Wedding Ceremony over this Small Matter with Yang Xiaocai.

"Fine, fine, your two sons' Wedding Ceremony is more important."

Zhang Zhongtian sighed.

Wang Zhanggen said:

"Party Secretary Zhang, thank you for helping me so much. Please go back and sit down now. I still need to greet the Customers. I'll toast you later."

"Fine, you go busy yourself."

Zhang Zhongtian turned around to leave.

Wang Zhanggen called him back again at this time:

"By the way, Party Secretary Zhang, don't tell anyone else about this matter, okay?"

Zhang Zhongtian was stunned; Wang Zhanggen's magnanimity surprised him somewhat.

Logically speaking, saying this out would only ruin Yang Xiaocai's reputation and have little effect on Wang Zhanggen, but Wang Zhanggen didn't want this matter to cause the conflict with Yang Xiaocai to expand, so he chose to let bygones be bygones, making big things small and small things nothing.

"Fine, I won't tell anyone."

Zhang Zhongtian agreed.

Wang Zhanggen smiled with an old face and said thanks.

Then he went to greet the Customers.

At this time, Wang Erhai finally returned from the Huangsheng New City sales office.

Liu Meiqi complained to him in a low voice for a few sentences, then quickly suppressed her Emotion, forced a Smile, and together they welcomed the arrival of the Customers.

Because at this time, an important Guest arrived.

It was Zhang Sheng, the General Manager of Huangsheng Group, and his wife Deng Hongyun, accompanied by several Executives of Huangsheng Group, who came together.
