Chapter 237 Something Happened

The days returned to calm again, and Wang Zhong's life was still regular. He was either at the magazine office or at home on weekdays. On weekends, he would go to the garment factory. One was to inspect and grasp the situation of the garment factory, and the other was to visit Ma Suqin .

Ma Suqin still lives in the small courtyard where she bought it. Apart from going to work in the garment factory on weekdays, she lives in seclusion. She doesn't even contact Aunt Wu and the others who used to have a good relationship. She watches TV and listens to the radio every day.

Yicheng and his siblings occasionally come back to visit Ma Suqin, but now they have formed their own families and have their own busy work, so they don't have much time to come.

More than a month after Yicheng and Song Qingyuan went to follow up and report on Qiao Zuwang and Xu Funian's fundraising, one evening, Wang Zhong suddenly received a call from Sanli, saying that something had happened to Qiao Zuwang, and that Manager Liu, who they were raising funds, was found guilty. The money ran away, and the company he opened disappeared. Those investors all came to Qiao Zuwang's house to ask for money, and the old Qiao's house was evacuated to pay off the debt.

Wang Zhong wasn't surprised when he heard that, anyway, it was a matter of time, but it shouldn't happen if he ran away, so he immediately called Xiang Beibei.

"North, I heard that someone ran away?"

"Master, you got it! I ran away last night. Fortunately, my brother was clever and stopped them all before leaving the city! Now everyone is at the Public Security Bureau." Xiang Beibei said carelessly.

"Where are Song Qingyuan and Qiao Yicheng?"

"They've been following them day and night these days. Yesterday they managed to take a nap, and ran away without realizing it. They rushed over early in the morning before dawn. At this moment, everyone is in the Public Security Bureau!"

"That's okay! You are busy first, and then contact if you have something to do!"

"Good master!"

Hanging up the phone, Wang Zhong shook his head, a little helpless, the person was caught, but the money may not be able to get all the money back, but that's good, if they get all the money back, they won't learn the lesson.

"It's time to eat!" Wen Ju'an was wearing an apron, his hair was tied behind his head, and he only held it with a big clip. With Wang Zhong's help, his body became more and more plump.

Wang Zhong walked to the dining table, pulled Wen Juan over and hugged him.

"It's time to eat!" Wen Ju'an bit his lips lightly, but Wang Zhong took Wen Ju'an's hand, took a bite on the still pink lips, and said softly: "After dinner later, let's Go back to the old house."

"what happened?"

Wen Ju'an's big spiritual eyes flickered as he looked at Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong couldn't hold back and took another bite, making Wen Ju'an's face red: "Sanli called just now to say that something happened to Qiao Zuwang, and those who tricked him into raising funds ran away, and those who were cheated ran away." I went to the old Qiao’s house to ask Qiao Zuwang for money, but Qiao Zuwang couldn’t give it, the house was emptied, almost took away all the door panels.”

"Ah?" Wen Ju'an exclaimed in surprise: "The house has been evacuated?"

"The last time Sanli's father came to ask you to borrow money..." Wen Ju'an suddenly remembered that last time Qiao Zuwang had just borrowed 2 yuan from Wang Zhong.

"They were all cheated away, including the coffin book he had saved in the past few years! I guess there is nothing left!"

Wen Ju'an excitedly jumped up from Wang Zhong's arms, and stood up straight with a whoosh, looking at Li Chong full of surprise: "So many have been deceived?"

"Don't worry!" Wang Zhong stood up, helped Wen Ju'an onto the stool, and said, "Although the money was cheated, it was not cheated!"

"What do you mean?" Wen Ju'an was a little confused.

"When he first started raising funds, I felt that something was wrong. He asked people from the north to keep an eye on those who were raising funds with him. They were all caught by friends from the north when they ran away last night. Now everyone In the Public Security Bureau, including Xu Funian who tricked Qiao Zuwang into raising funds, none of them ran away."

Hearing what Wang Zhong said, Wen Ju'an heaved a sigh of relief.

"Everyone has been arrested, so why was Qiao's house emptied?"

"The police were late. When the police came, the house had already been evacuated. Fortunately, everyone is fine!"

"As long as the person is fine, since the police have arrested him, can the money be returned?"

"I should be able to get some back! But how much I can get back depends on the police." When Qiao Zuwang and Xu Funian went around looking for people to raise funds, Wang Zhong did not persuade them, but they were not popular enough. Seeing the huge profits, I couldn't restrain the greed in my heart, but I didn't think about it, if there is such a profitable business in this world, it would be their turn to rise and fight small people?
It's a pity that although Wang Zhong has some prestige, in the face of huge interests, his words are not as important as before.

The dinner Wen Ju'an cooked was quite hearty. The two of them made four dishes and one soup, and the portions were quite large. The rice was steamed slowly in a large pot. Wen Ju'an only ate two bowls by himself, and the rest was king. Heavy, with four dishes and one soup, there was not even any soup left.

Wen Ju'an suddenly felt a little strange, with Wang Zhong's appetite, how did Rhubarb and Xiaohua survive when they were in the old house.

After eating, the couple drove back to the old house, parked the car at the alley, and walked in arm in arm. The neighbor they met greeted Wang Zhong and his wife.

When Wang Zhong and Wen Ju'an arrived at Qiao's house, besides Simei and Qiqi, Yicheng, Erqiang, and Sanli were also there.

"You two came here by yourself? Where's the child?"

"The child is at the mother-in-law's place!" Er Qiang said: "Recently, the business in the store is good, and Qinghui School is also busy, so the children are placed at the mother-in-law's side for the mother-in-law to watch over!"

"Where is Qiao Zuwang?" The main room was empty, not to mention the TV, refrigerator, and telephone. There was not even a small stool, and it was really emptied.

If it snows a little more, you can still feel that the whiteness is so clean!

"It's in the house!" Yicheng looked at the back room with the closed door: "Hiding and refusing to come out!"

"Who doesn't want to come out!" Accompanied by the voice, the closed door was opened, and Qiao Zuwang, who looked a little embarrassed, walked out of the room with a bow.

"Hmph!" Yicheng snorted heavily, turned his head away, he was completely out of sight.

"Little Zhong, you're here!" Qiao Zuwang smiled and walked up to Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong looked him up and down, couldn't help teasing and said: "Oh, you can still laugh! If you say that your heart is really strong enough!" Li Zhong patted him on the chest, "Out of it! For such a big thing, it’s still like a normal person.”

"Isn't it your fault?" Qiao Zuwang said flatteringly.

"Don't!" Wang Zhong immediately took two steps back and distanced himself from Qiao Zuwang: "This old saying is good, brothers still know how to settle accounts, we two are not even brothers, we are just cousins, so naturally we have to settle clearer."

"What do you mean?" Qiao Zuwang's expression changed instantly, and he looked at Wang Zhong in disbelief.

"You borrowed 2 yuan from me earlier..."

"What?" Wang Zhong hadn't finished speaking, and the sulking Yicheng immediately exploded: "Twenty thousand?"

"Uncle, what is 2 yuan?" Yicheng asked anxiously.

"Just last month, your father wanted to raise funds and asked me to borrow [-] yuan, saying that he would pay it back in two months."

"Qiao Zuwang, you are really promising! That's 2 yuan. If you sell you, can you sell it for [-]?" Yicheng became more and more anxious, his voice became louder, and he was about to teach him a lesson. This old man who doesn't know what to say and only knows to cause trouble, Er Qiang and Song Qingyuan hurriedly pulled him away, shouting that this is his father, and telling Yicheng not to be impulsive.

"Isn't the person already caught by the police? In a few days, the police will be able to get the money back..."

"You're thinking beautifully. Your money has been in other people's hands for so long. Do you think you can get it all back?" It's been a long time since I've seen a loss of control. Wang Zhong folded his hands and watched the show. , Wen Ju'an tugged at his sleeve, but Wang Zhong shook his head at her.

"Everyone is caught, why can't I get it back!" Qiao Zuwang spoke with confidence, but his body kept moving, and he kept backing away, afraid that he would really be beaten by Yicheng.

Ever since Yicheng went to college, the relationship between him and Yicheng at home was as if he had lost his stature. His son scolded Lao Tzu all day long, which made Qiao Zuwang out of his shadow. Looking at Yicheng, he felt trembling in his heart. Just like seeing Lao Tzu.

"So much money is sent to others, and they will keep it for you without spending a penny, right! Who do you think they are? Are they good men and women?"

Erqiang and Song Qingyuan persuaded for a while, and Yicheng yelled a few words, venting his inner emotions, and rushed forward to do something.

Qiao Zuwang suddenly felt as if struck by lightning, he froze on the spot, his face changed for a while, he quickly ran to Wang Zhong, and asked anxiously: "Xiao Zhong, is it true that I can't get my money back?"

"It's hard to say, and even if you can get some money back, the money has to go to the neighbors who were cheated first. If it's not enough, maybe you have to put more money in!"

"What?" Qiao Zuwang immediately exploded: "I still have to post money?"

"I was cheated, and I'm also a victim, why should I post money?" Qiao Zuwang didn't understand at all.

"What else could be the reason? Didn't you instigate everyone to invest money in it? You are lucky that you haven't been arrested by the police now!" These words naturally scared Qiao Zuwang.

"I'm also a victim, why are you arresting me! I was also deceived by Xu Funian and Liu Jianguo!" Qiao Zuwang was so wronged that he was about to cry, this time he was really wronged.

"You feel wronged yourself, do you think the neighbors will feel wronged by you? Will the comrades in the Public Security Bureau feel wronged by you?" Yicheng said with hatred.

"I...I..." Qiao Zuwang was so stunned that he couldn't speak, only feeling his chest tight.

"Okay!" Wang Zhong suppressed a smile, "There is no place to sit, what are you doing here, go to my old house and sit for a while."

Said that Wang Zhong left first with Wen Ju'an on his arm, followed by Yicheng, without even looking at Qiao Zuwang, but Er Qiang took a look, and followed Yicheng with his wife, Sanli knew her father To save face, he walked over and heard some soft words, even coaxing and deceiving him before getting him out of the door.

As soon as he came out of Qiao's old house, he saw a familiar figure standing at the door.

Wang Zhong greeted people with a smile: "Sister Wu!"

"Xiao Zhong is back!" Sister Wu had a smile on her face. At this moment, Sister Wu was very glad that Qiao Zuwang took the money back. Otherwise, she would probably be like everyone else at this moment, and could only move to Qiao's house. something.

"Sister Wu didn't engage in fundraising with Lao Qiao?"

"Hi! It's not thanks to you. I invested [-] at the beginning. If you didn't say that raising funds is risky, I asked Brother Qiao to get the money back. I don't know where to cry now! Xiao Zhong, you still have the ability!" Sister Wu said with a look of lingering fear, and gave Li Zhong a thumbs up.

"Sister Wu, if you don't feel tired from getting up early and being late at night, setting up a breakfast shop in front of the school and selling some rice porridge, soybean milk, fried dough sticks, steamed buns, etc. is much better than engaging in these crooked ways."

"I'm getting old, and I still have to watch over my grandson. I'm afraid I don't have so much energy!" Sister Wu said, frowning.

Wang Zhong smiled and said: "If you are willing, let your son invest in you and open a small bookstore near the school, specializing in selling tutorial books and stationery, and you will definitely be able to make money! These days, which parent would not want My children will be promising in the future, even if I knock out a tooth and swallow it in my stomach, I still have to support my children to study, right?"

Sister Wu's eyes lit up in an instant: "Xiao Zhong, your idea is good, let me just say, you are the most promising and capable person in our alley!"

"I just keep talking, Sister Wu, if I have something to do, I'll leave first!"

"You are busy, you are busy!"

"Why do you treat this sister Wu so well?" Wen Ju'an looked at Wang Zhong in doubt.

"Sister Wu is a good person. She has a good relationship with my cousin, who is Yicheng's mother. She helped us a lot in the past. When I was young, Sister Wu helped my cousin take care of me..."

Although it is an identity arranged by the system and a fabricated memory, Sister Wu is indeed a good-hearted person. Although she has many shortcomings that ordinary people have, the kindness she gave at the beginning is worth the rewards.

Now Sister Wu's daughter-in-law is working in a garment factory. She is a small leader of the workshop and her income is very good. Sister Wu's son also worked in a state-owned factory earlier, but he was laid off later. He also joined the factory through Wang Zhong's introduction. Although the income of Xiang Beibei's construction team is not very high, it is at least much higher than that of working in the factory. Moreover, Xiang Beibei has a strong relationship and a wide network of contacts, so he does not have to worry about work.

The Wang family’s old house was only a few minutes away from the Qiao’s house. Ever since Wang Zhong and Wen Ju’an moved to the villa by the Xuanwu Lake, the old house had been vacant, but Sanli often brought Song Qingyuan back to the small house. Live, there is no dust inside and outside the house, and it has been cleaned clean.

Wen Ju'an used to come here a lot, and now it has really become her home.

"There are ready-made bedding and everything in the house. You will live here first during this time."

"Now let's talk about your old house!" The family sat around the coffee table, Sanli and Er Qiang's daughter-in-law went to the kitchen to clean up and start the stove. Anyway, Qiao Zuwang always had to start a fire when he wanted to stay.

In the main room, Qiao Zuwang looked at Wang Zhong vigilantly: "The old house is mine!"

"I didn't say that the old house is not yours! But you signed the IOU for me. If you don't pay it when it's due, you have to calculate the interest. We wrote it clearly in black and white at the beginning. You only read the terms and conditions. Signed and pressed fingerprints, I am not talking nonsense!"
