Chapter 79
Zhong Yan didn't care what Zhong Ke said, anyway, no matter what he said, she would treat it as nonsense.

It can be said that she has officially left the Zhong family, but the situation of the Zhong family has gradually improved. Gu Huaizhou did what he said, and from time to time came forward to help the Zhong family through difficulties.

In terms of the result, Zhong Yan was really relieved, except for the occasional appearance of Zhong Ke, the melancholy of the previous period has long since disappeared, and she has once again lived a peaceful life.

Zhong Yan also had the leisure to wander around as usual. This day, she went to the alleys to look for delicious food as usual. When she walked in, she found that a number of shops had closed in just a few days.

While Zhong Yan was curious, he walked into the tofu shop and asked, "What's going on recently? It's not a holiday. Why did everyone close the shop and go home?"

The owner of the store sighed and glanced at her, and said sadly: "What's the holiday, you haven't been here for a few days, of course you don't know, this place is not very peaceful recently."

Zhong Yan really didn't know what happened. Hearing what the boss said, she also asked curiously: "What happened?"

Now the boss looked at her and hesitated for a long time, Zhong Yan immediately assured: "Don't worry, I'll just listen, I won't say anything casually."

Then the boss said worriedly: "When you first liked to come here, didn't you encounter a group of men in black running around here?"

Zhong Yan almost understood when she heard this, she lowered her voice and asked in surprise: "Is this here again?"

The boss sighed: "That's right, and they got worse. I heard that a man was taken away from here. His wives and children couldn't help it. They hugged each other and cried for several days."

Zhong Yan couldn't help being surprised, and asked again: "Is there such a thing?"

"Of course, I didn't see it myself. I heard people who had seen it come back and said that the battle was not small, so it scared away many people. Customers refused to come. Naturally, there were fewer people doing business. A lot."

The more Zhong Yan heard it, the more she found it unbelievable. The last time she saw so many men in black, she also happened to meet Gu Huaizhou. Could it be that these things have something to do with Gu Huaizhou?
Zhong Yan had an intuition that Gu Huaizhou would not do such a thing, but she didn't say it in front of the boss, she just asked suggestively: "Did you call the police? Actually, you can call the police."

The boss shook his head inscrutablely after hearing this, covered his mouth and said in a low voice: "We didn't call the police, and we don't know why we didn't call the police, but I heard that his family didn't call the police. You said that they didn't choose to call the police, so we can join in." .Hey, we can only watch from the sidelines.”

Zhong Yan sighed after hearing this, but he still didn't want to believe that these things had something to do with Gu Huaizhou. He is such a good person, he shouldn't do such things.

Out of politeness, Zhong Yan did not ask Gu Huaizhou for confirmation.When the two made an appointment for dinner, Gu Huaizhou didn't take the initiative to mention it, so Zhong Yan could only bury it in his heart.

Just when she was about to forget about this incident, she suddenly saw a woman holding a child at the gate of her community. It happened that someone was pushing a flat cart to sell toys at that time, and the little girl in the woman's arms was arguing She wanted a plush doll, but of course the woman didn't buy it for the child. She coaxed the little girl for a long time before she carried the child away.

The woman and the child reminded Zhong Yan of the tofu shop owner's story about the child and the elderly crying into a ball, but it's easy to have as many parents as there are in the world, and the person in front of him may not necessarily be the person in the story.

Zhong Yan gave up his reverie, shook his head and went home.

But she didn't expect that when she was eating in the tofu shop the next day, she saw a woman passing by the door with a little girl in her arms. Because the little girl was crying all the time, Zhong Yan couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Not long after the two walked over, the owner of the tofu shop suddenly looked at their backs and sighed, and said softly: "They are the hard-working people I mentioned, hey, it is really hard, I heard that they are almost out of money to pay the rent gone."

After hearing this, Zhong Yan also sighed, what happened to make a good home like this.

Zhong Yan was very sympathetic to what happened to them, but she didn't rashly step forward to help them. She didn't know what happened yet, and she didn't want to do bad things with good intentions.

She had been quietly observing for two days, but before she could figure out what happened, she witnessed a farce with her own eyes.

At that time, Zhong Yan had just got off work and got off the bus when he saw a crowd crying and shouting at the entrance of the alley.Zhong Yan also leaned over to take a look, and it was a terrible look. The person Gu Huaizhou called his brother before was standing in the middle of the crowd with his brows furrowed.

And squatting in front of him was a woman and a little girl whom Zhong Yan had never seen before. At this time, the little girl was crying and looking very sad.

The woman also looked sad, and cried out aggrievedly: "This is my child, where do you want to take her? I won't allow it! No matter who comes, I won't allow it!"

The man standing in the crowd sighed slightly, squatted down and looked at the woman and said, "I didn't decide this. It was your husband who said he wanted to see your child, so I came here to pick her up. If it doesn't work, you can send her there." .”

The woman's voice was even sharper when she heard it: "I don't want it! You let me go, who knows what kind of dragon's pond and tiger's lair is that? I'm afraid I will die and die, please leave!"

But the man seemed to be prepared, he paused and continued: "Please think about it more, otherwise I'll let you talk to your husband on the phone, so you can know what he thinks."

But the woman refused, and shouted, "Do you think I don't know? He's on your side, of course he will speak according to your lines. Anyway, I don't believe it. No matter who comes, I don't believe it!"

The man frowned even deeper, and continued to speak out to persuade him. Zhong Yan thought about it, and impulsively called Gu Huaizhou.

After the call was made, Zhong Yan felt that he didn't know where to start, but Gu Huaizhou answered the phone quickly. He answered the phone and asked softly, "Call me when you have time."

Zhong Yan gritted his teeth and recounted the current situation: "In this alley near my house, the first time I met you, there was a confrontation between mother and daughter and your brother. Do you know about this?"

After Gu Huaizhou finished listening, his voice naturally lowered a few degrees. Before he hung up the phone quickly, he said: "I know what to do."

Zhong Yan listened anxiously to the busy tone on the phone, suddenly feeling a little overwhelmed.

Not long after, the man standing in the crowd suddenly stopped talking and picked up the phone, then he looked up in Zhong Yan's direction, and lowered his head not knowing what to say.

About half a minute later, he hung up the phone and walked out of the crowd expressionlessly. Zhong Yan looked at his leaving back and panicked for a rare two seconds.

When she looked back again, the woman and the little girl were helped up by the crowd of onlookers nearby. Under the persuasion of everyone, the woman wiped her tears and went home.

Zhong Yan also heaved a sigh of relief, but when she slowly returned home alone, she couldn't help but think of Gu Huaizhou again.

After hearing her description, Gu Huaizhou did not show any surprise, and even called his subordinates to change the itinerary.Does this mean that he is well aware of this matter, and even that he is the mastermind of this matter?

From Zhong Yan's point of view, what Gu Huaizhou and the others did this time is completely like a bad thing, but she still doesn't want to believe that Gu Huaizhou is not a bad person, this is impossible.

At the same time, she was also worried that Zhong Yan called him in a hurry, which was equivalent to saving his face, would Gu Huaizhou feel sad?
Zhong Yan thought a lot that night, and in the end, she didn't know how to face Gu Huaizhou. When she received a call from Gu Huaizhou the next day, she hesitated for a long time before answering.

Gu Huaizhou smiled slightly, and said softly, "Zhong Yan, come out for dinner, I'll treat you to dinner."

Zhong Yan hesitated for a moment, and said hello, she felt that Gu Huaizhou probably didn't come for dinner this time, he probably had something to say.

And obviously Zhong Yan's sixth sense was right, the atmosphere of the two eating was the same as usual, only when he put down his chopsticks, Gu Huaizhou suddenly said: "Don't you have anything to ask?"

Zhong Yan pursed his lips and looked up at him: "Then if I ask you, don't get angry."

Gu Huaizhou curled his lips into a smile, and said calmly, "No, I'm not such a stingy person."

Zhong Yan took a deep breath, looked at Gu Huaizhou solemnly and asked, "Did you do something near my neighborhood?"

Gu Huaizhou laughed after listening, the smile was a little careless, Zhong Yan's heart relaxed and tightened according to his expression, and he didn't know what expression to make.

Gu Huaizhou put his hand on his chin, and said calmly, "Do you still want to ask Brother Zhe Che?"

Zhong Yan's attention was attracted by his words, so he also asked: "Brother Zhe Che? Is it the brother we knew before?"

Gu Huaizhou nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Of course, and you met him a few days ago, and he also met you."

Zhong Yan's expression turned serious when she heard that, and she asked again: "So you were the one who asked him to do that kind of thing at that time? Gu Huaizhou, give me a reason."

Gu Huaizhou smiled lightly when he heard the words, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Zhong Yan, do you think I'm a bad person?" Zhong Yan shook his head firmly: "In my eyes, you are not that kind of person, I just want a reason."

Gu Huaizhou originally wanted to tease her a few words, but seeing how serious she was, he didn't dare to continue teasing her, and then confessed to Zhong Yan: "The male owner of that house used to be my business partner. He took my money and ran away, I won't let it go, it took a long time to find him over there, but guess what he said afterwards?"

Zhong Yan frowned and listened intently: "How do you say?"

Gu Huaizhou sneered, and continued: "He didn't want to say anything. I checked his consumption, and he specified where he hid the money. But he didn't want to let go, so I had to do my best to make him talk. "

Zhong Yan was very surprised when he heard it, and sighed, "It's just for the money, what about it?"

Gu Huaizhou said lightly: "Who knows, but let me say something for Brother Zhe Che, the kid who owed the money and didn't pay it back said he wanted to see his daughter, and when he saw him, he let go. Now, his wife doesn't Let her daughter leave, and we can't force it."

Hearing this, Zhong Yan almost understood that Gu Huaizhou was a good man, and his brother Zhe Che should also be a good man.

Zhong Yan hesitated for a moment, then asked again: "Then I didn't do anything bad that day, did I? If I disturb your affairs, then I will..."

Gu Huaizhou chuckled, and said calmly: "No, I had expected it before, and I wanted him to come back earlier, and the timing of your call is also very coincidental."

After hearing this bell, she was relieved, and she was afraid that something would happen to her again.

But she not only remembers about Gu Huaizhou, but also never forgets that woman and child.After a deliberation, Zhong Yan rang the doorbell of the woman's house with a bag of food and clothing.

After the door opened, an old lady with a vigilant look stood out from behind the door and asked Zhong Yan in a low voice, "What do you want to do here?"

Zhong Yan shook the things in his hands, and motioned for the old lady to see: "I'm here to give things to the children. When she is growing up, I think she should need these."

Presumably, other residents in the community also extended a helping hand to her house. At this time, the old lady was not so guarded against her, and invited her in for tea.

When Zhong Yan was sitting on the sofa, he took a look around. There was indeed nothing good in this house. What could be sold had been sold long ago. Except for some necessary daily necessities, it could almost be described as poor.

When the old lady brought the tea, Zhong Yan asked with a smile, "Where's the kid? Why didn't you see me?"

The old lady pointed to the room quietly, and said in a low voice, "She is tired from playing, and she is sleeping in the room."

Zhong Yan wanted to wait for the little girl to wake up, so he sat in the living room and chatted with the old lady. After talking a few words, the old lady couldn't hold back her tears: "I didn't expect that I would go through these things when I was old. What a crime! , if it wasn’t for the help of our neighbors, we wouldn’t know what to do.”

As an outsider, Zhong Yan could only pat her on the shoulder and say, "Days pass by, and everything will be fine in the future."

These words were weak and pale, and Zhong Yan knew it himself, but the old lady still took her hand gratefully and said thank you.

After chatting nonsense for a while, the little girl woke up. She rubbed her eyes and stood by the door. When the old lady saw her, she waved to her: "Xiaocheng, come here and call my sister."

Zhong Yan pursed his lips and smiled: "You can call me auntie now, what's your name sister? Your name is Xiaocheng, right? You're so cute. Come and see what new things I brought you."

Xiao Cheng obediently came over and lay on her lap, staring at the bag in her hand with her big eyes motionless.

Seeing this, Zhong Yan smiled and took things out of the bag one by one: "Here are your new clothes, and these are gloves and hats, which you can wear in winter, and this is a small schoolbag."

As soon as Xiao Cheng received those things, she was overjoyed, and Zhong Yan took out another bag: "This is a snack for your family, these candies are yours, and the milk is grandma's, how about it, do you like it?" ?”

The corner of Xiaocheng's mouth was obviously smiling, but after her grandmother nodded, she said joyfully, "I like it!"
