Chapter 350: Jia Zhangshi: Return my old-age money!
Yi Zhonghai glanced at Qin Huairu, his brows furrowed, he let out a long sigh, and said:
I guess it's uncertain.
Let's just take a look first, then talk.
Having said that, he looked at Liu Guangfu and continued:
Oh, right, Guangfu, this money is actually your Uncle Zhuzi's.
He borrowed this money from his disciples for your family's matters.
You must remember to repay it.
Qin Huairu: "The emergency expenses were paid by Eldest Uncle; if you repay, repay him first."
Yi Zhonghai: "Mine isn't urgent; let's repay you first."
Qin Huairu heard this and her mood improved a bit.
That's right.
Qin Huairu had already sent Xiao Dang to get money from Shazhu.
Her calculations were spot on.
If the business money isn't returned, they won't be able to get by.
Even the old-age savings Jia Zhangshi had accumulated over the years were put in.
If not returned, they'll lose everything, not a penny left.
So she pretended to be thinking of Liu Haizhong and Second Aunt, and had Xiao Dang summon Shazhu for money.
When Shazhu heard this, he immediately borrowed twenty thousand yuan from his disciples and Liu Lan.
He thought it was an emergency.
He didn't care about all that.
Liu Guangfu glanced at Qin Huairu, then at Yi Zhonghai, and said with an annoyed expression:
Look at what you're saying—am I someone who defaults on debts?
If I had money, could I still ask Eldest Uncle to front it?
Besides, my father has money, but it's all tied up in business.
Once my brother explains things to them, the money will naturally be returned to us.
What's there to fear about not being able to repay this small sum?
Just then, Xiao Dang helped Jia Zhangshi over, with Second Aunt following behind.
Jia Zhangshi's face was streaked with tears.
Upon seeing Liu Guangfu, she broke free from Xiao Dang's hand, stumbled over, shoved him, and cried out:
Liu Guangfu, you damned thing, return my old-age money!
Liu Guangfu staggered from the push.
But he merely put on a smile and said:
Bang Geng's grandmother, you, you, this has nothing to do with me.
It's my father and brother who handled this business; I'm just running errands.
Yi Zhonghai furrowed his brows, looked at Jia Zhangshi, and asked:
Auntie, did you also invest?
Jia Zhangshi glanced at Yi Zhonghai, then suddenly sat on the ground, slapping the earth with both hands while wailing:
Old Jia, Dong Xu, why didn't you take Liu Haizhong's whole family away?
I'm this old, and they still teamed up to swindle my old-age money.
Liu Guangfu stood there trembling.
He had long seen Jia Zhangshi throw a fit, and he dared not say anything more.
Second Aunt let out a light sigh and said:
Auntie, this is a hospital; mind your influence.
If you keep this up, Old Yi and I will leave and no longer interfere in your affairs.
Upon hearing that, Jia Zhangshi immediately shut her mouth.
She still fantasized that Yi Zhonghai would help her recover the money.
Qin Huairu let out a long sigh and pulled Jia Zhangshi up.
Then she looked at Xiao Dang and asked:
Did your Uncle Shazhu give the money?
Xiao Dang patted his bag and said:
He gave it.
Qin Huairu happily said:
Alright, let's go pay the hospitalization fees first.
Xiao Dang: "No, we still need Uncle Guangfu to write an IOU first."
Qin Huairu said nothing and walked toward the hospital interior.
Write an IOU?
That's utterly disgraceful!
Besides, it's Shazhu's money.
Even if Liu Haizhong repays later, she'll keep it for herself.
But.
She would not ask Liu Guangfu to write an IOU.
With so many people around, Liu Haizhong and them wouldn't dare to default on the debt.
Yi Dama watched Qin Huairu's back, silently thinking to herself:
「Quite good at playing the good person. 」.
「Using Shazhu's money to do good deeds. 」.
After walking away, Qin Huairu whispered:
「Xiao Dang, how much money did Shazhu give you? 」.
Xiao Dang: 「Twenty thousand. 」.
Qin Huairu: 「That's a lot; this Shazhu actually hid private money secretly. 」.
Xiao Dang: 「I don't know if he has any private money. 」.
「But this money is what he borrowed from a few disciples. 」.
「Mom, can the money we used for business be refunded? 」.
Qin Huairu: 「I doubt it. 」.
Xiao Dang: 「Then we won't pay them this money. 」.
「We're out of money. 」.
「Better to keep it for ourselves. 」.
Qin Huairu: 「I also want that. 」.
「But Eldest Uncle and Yi Dama are both here. 」.
「If we don't pay Second Elder's hospital fees, how will they view us? 」.
「Don't worry, it's fine, ah. 」.
「Afterward we'll ask the Liu family for it. 」.
Xiao Dang: 「But can they repay it? 」.
Qin Huairu: 「They wouldn't dare not to repay. 」.
「With Shazhu around, there's nothing to fear. 」.
Outside the hospital.
Qin Huairu and Xiao Dang had just gone in when Xu Damao walked over.
Yu Haitang saw this, quickly stood up, went to meet him, and asked:
「Damao, how is it? 」.
Xu Damao didn't speak.
Yu Haitang asked anxiously:
「Come on, tell us—what exactly happened? 」.
Liu Guangfu also asked nervously:
「Right, Brother Xu, what exactly happened? 」.
「Speak up, Brother Xu—what happened? 」.
Xu Damao said unhurriedly:
「Not much. 」.
Yi Zhonghai said irritably:
「Alright, stop beating around the bush. 」.
「Just say it quickly. 」.
Jia Zhangshi: 「Exactly, what are you putting on a front for? 」.
Xu Damao frowned and said: 「Hey, how should I put this? 」.
「I helped you inquire; even if there's no merit, there's at least hard work, right? 」.
Jia Zhangshi snorted coldly and said nothing.
Yi Dama: 「Alright, Damao, hurry up and say it. 」.
Xu Damao: 「Yi Dama, Eldest Uncle, I'm going to the inspection bureau to discuss. 」.
「I'm telling you, this case has become a big deal. 」.
Upon hearing this, Jia Zhangshi and Liu Guangfu exchanged a glance.
And seeing Liu Guangfu looking at her, Jia Zhangshi immediately pointed at him and shouted angrily:
「Liu Guangfu, be sensible—quickly get your dad to repay our family's money. 」.
「Otherwise, otherwise, I'll die at your doorstep tonight. 」.
Liu Guangfu couldn't hold back, he glared at Jia Zhangshi and snapped:
「No money, no life... not giving either! 」.
「This is your own voluntary investment; if you lose, you blame us? 」.
「You laugh when you profit. 」.
「How could there be such a cheap thing in this world? 」.
「Did I threaten you with a knife to make you invest money? 」.
Jia Zhangshi didn't expect Liu Guangfu to dare speak to her like that; after a moment of shock, she pointed at him and wailed:
「I, I'll fight you to the death! 」.
Yi Zhonghai shouted: 「Stop! 」.
Jia Zhangshi was stunned again.
Given her temperament, she was about to plop down on the ground and throw a fit.
But she was thinking that she still needed to rely on Lin Shengli.
Yi Zhonghai, however, is Lin Shengli's maternal uncle.
Offend Yi Zhonghai, and Lin Shengli won't help their family.
In her opinion, Lin Shengli possesses extraordinary abilities.
If Lin Shengli is willing to help, the money will surely be returned.
But she had already made up her mind.
From now on she'll go to the Liu family every day, raising a fuss and being unreasonable, until her pension money is fully returned to her.
She even suspected that the Liu family had teamed up to cheat her out of her pension money.
