"Don't explain. I believe you have nothing to do with Jia Zhang. At most, you are just paying lip service to gain some advantage. But in the final analysis, your behavior is immoral, so you can pay some money and not be wronged. Besides, Look at Zhu Zhu’s beating of Jia Dongxu, he almost doesn’t recognize his mother anymore, just treat this money as paying for Zhu Zhu’s medical expenses.”
"Yes, just to pay for the medical expenses."
Under Liu Guangqi's advice, He Daqing also came to his senses. If he continued to pester him, he would probably have no good results and might as well just give up. At least Liu Guangqi found this reason for him and it would be okay.
Thinking about Jia Dongxu's misery, and then looking at his son, He Daqing suddenly felt that the 100,000 yuan was worth the loss. Although he did not win, his son had a great victory.
After persuading He Daqing, Liu Guangqi came to Jia Dongxu's house again. As soon as he entered Jia Zhang's house, he shouted that he didn't have 500,000 yuan. If he couldn't solve the matter, he would go to the police station.
"Aunt Zhang, it's useless even if you go to the police station. Do you have any evidence? Don't say that Uncle Jia saw it. Is there anyone else besides him? No, as your husband, Uncle Jia's words have no legal meaning. It cannot be used as evidence."
When Liu Guangqi saw Jia Zhang's mean cheek, he felt upset and poured cold water on the other person without politeness.
"Why can't you testify?"
"If you can't, you can't. This is the rule. You tell the country. Not to mention that even in ancient times, the testimonies of relatives and husbands and wives will not be used. And what happened to Aunt Jia tonight? You know it yourself. They have promised to compensate your family 100,000 yuan. If you don't think it's a big deal, you can continue to make trouble and make it known to the world. By then, not to mention the courtyard, even the street, the school will probably know about it. Look back. When Dongxu goes to school, people ask if your mother has been tricked by others, what do you want Dongxu to say?"
After speaking, Liu Guangqi turned his attention to Lao Jia again. It was Lao Jia who had the final say in the Jia family.
"Uncle Jia, you don't want to make things bigger. By then, everyone will know about this. How can you gain a foothold in our steel factory? Besides, one hundred thousand yuan is a lot, enough to buy many kilograms of meat, how much That’s a pound of food.”
In the end, under Liu Guangqi's persuasive lobbying, the two families finally reached a settlement agreement. Those who knew about the matter were also asked to keep silent by the three uncles and were not allowed to speak a word to the outside world.
However, although this matter was resolved, the feud between the two families was forged, which also laid the foundation for He Daqing's departure in the future.
It was already getting late when the matter was settled, and the old and young men were no longer in the mood to drink, so they each took the things they brought and returned to their homes.
Because of Liu Haizhu's arrival, Liu Haizhong's family faced an accommodation crisis for the first time. As Liu Guangqi's uncle, Liu Haizhu was not suitable to sleep anywhere, not on the floor, and even less on the kang.
How could the eldest brother-in-law and his younger siblings sleep in the same bed, so Liu Guangqi had no choice but to give up his own bed, and went to the old lady's house to make do with Xu Changsheng's bed all night.
But this is not without its benefits. At least it reminds Liu Guangqi of his house. The house seems to be quite big now, and there is no problem in accommodating Liu Guangqi's family.
But when Liu Guangtian is old in two years, it will be time to move in with Liu Guangqi. By then, Liu Guangqi will have to find another place to do something secretive.
He even said that if he married Qin Huairu in a few years, this house would be even less liveable. It seems that we have to find a way to buy a house nearby while the houses can still be bought and sold in the past two years. When the time comes, we can move there and save ourselves from watching all these intrigues in this courtyard.
The next day, because they had to rush on their way, they still took someone else's car, so the Liu family got up early.
Liu Guangqi packed up his things and took the things he needed to take, and was about to take the people to catch the bus, but as soon as he left, he saw Liu Haizhong still pushing the bicycle.
"Dad, what are you doing? Aren't we taking a car? Why are you pushing a bicycle?"
"Let's all go. I don't worry if no one is watching this car here. Besides, your eldest brother is getting married, so maybe it can still be used."
It's a bunch of nonsense. In Liu Guangqi's opinion, Liu Haizhong just wants to ride back and show off in the village.
"The roads in our village are so bad, are you sure you can ride back?"
In the memory of Liu Guangqi's predecessor, the road back to Liujiacun was called a profound one. Not only was it rough, it was also uphill. Because Liujiacun was halfway up the mountain, it was difficult to walk. He didn't like to go back since he was a child. village.
"It's okay, I'll just resist when the time comes."
Liu Haizhong chuckled. Seeing Liu Haizhong's determined look, what else could Liu Guangqi say? Let him go.
When he arrived at the entrance of the Bai Family Medical Center, the cart pulling goods had already hitched up its horses. Liu Guangqi handed the cigarettes he had prepared long ago to the driver.
"Young master, what are you doing? You can take a car and use this. It's all right."
The driver driver has worked in the Bai family for decades, and feudal ideas have been deeply ingrained. Even in New China, the children and grandchildren of the Bai family will always be called young master or miss when they see them. Even Liu Guangqi was called Young Master by him because he was Bai Jingqi's apprentice.
"Uncle Wang, how many times have I told you, don't call me Young Master. I'm not from the Bai family. Besides, now that we're in New China, we don't want to call me this way anymore. You can just call me Guangqi or Xiao Liu, but you don't dare. Please call me Master again."
Liu Guangqi patiently explained to the other party, but decades of old thoughts could not be changed by Liu Guangqi in just a few words. When Liu Guangqi said this, the other party nodded and asked what to call him when he turned around, not to mention it sounded pretty cool, haha.
After putting things away, get on the carriage. Lao Wang tapped the horse's butt lightly, and the horse walked automatically towards the outside of the city. Liu Haizhong followed behind on a bicycle.
"Second brother, your family lives in a really nice place, with mountains, water, and so many good houses. It would be great if Guangxiao could live here in the future."
When the carriage passed by Qianhai and Nanluoguxiang, Liu Haizhu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly looked at Qianhai on the side of the road and sighed.
This sentence immediately choked Liu Haizhong and became speechless. Because he couldn't guess what his elder brother meant. Was it really just a sigh of relief, or was he thinking about asking him to help his nephew arrange a job in the city. It's not that he doesn't want to take care of it, he really can't.
This job is not easy to arrange. Although the steel factory is also recruiting people now, there are conditions. On the one hand, they must be educated and at least literate. On the other hand, they must be from the city. Priority is given to solving problems in the city. This is not discrimination, but a matter of overall consideration. After all, if you don’t have a job in the countryside, you can still make a living by farming, but if you don’t have a job in the city, you can only wait to starve to death.
And Liu Guangxiao is not from the city, and he is illiterate in terms of culture. How can he help arrange it? He has a big face, but his face is not big.
“It’s very good. It’s all arranged by the government.”
In the end, Liu Haizhong could only pretend that he didn't understand and continued to say what Liu Haizhu meant.
Although Liu Guangqi on the side heard it, he pretended not to hear it. With his relationship with Bai Jingqi, it was definitely not difficult for the old man to arrange his cousin to Baicao Hall, but once he did it, he felt a bit arrogant. Meaning, it will seriously affect his impression on the Bai family.
Besides, he doesn't know his cousin well enough. If the other person is a piece of mud who can't stand up to the wall, wouldn't it be a waste of favor if he opens his mouth?
So just pretend you didn’t hear about it, just sit back and read the songbook and wait and see.
Sitting on the side of the carriage, I chatted with Lao Wang from time to time. After a while, the carriage swayed out of BJ City.
At first, looking at the beautiful scenery outside the city, Lao Liu's family was in a good mood. However, as they walked, Liu Guangqi and the others felt that they had miscalculated and did not bring a fan out on such a hot day.
There was no cover for the carriage pulling goods. Liu Guangqi was sweating profusely from the sun just a short while after leaving the city. Liu Ma, Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu were not much better either. Their tongues were so hot that they almost spit out.
If he could, he really wanted to drive out the small Wuling from the processing plant in the space. Even if the air conditioner was not that good, it would be much better than this hard sun. Unfortunately, he could only think about it. .
"Dad, give me the car and I'll go ahead and buy you a watermelon. It's too hot."
After walking for a while, Liu Guangqi couldn't stand being exposed to the sun anymore. He decided to hide in space for a while to cool down. As for his mother and brother, he couldn't care about it. At the most, he would bring them some iced watermelon. for compensation.
