Happy Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 791 Who Did You Lie To?

"Now tell me the matter clearly. Did you come up with it yourself? Or did someone else ask you to do it?"

When Yan Bugui heard that Yan Jiecheng asked for help, he didn't make any excuses, and directly expressed his request.

Based on his understanding of Yan Jiecheng, he knew that this kid would definitely not spread rumors for no reason, and he specifically asked Yan Jiedi to disclose it to BangGong.

There must be some secret here.

And his main task now is to understand the whole thing clearly, and then find a way to divert the anger of Sha Zhu and Hu Xiaotao.

In this way, he will be able to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and avoid being involved in this turmoil.

"I can't tell!"

Hearing this, Yan Jiecheng hesitated for a while, then shook his head and said.

Now that he has received Xu Damao's money, he can't betray Xu Damao casually, otherwise, he will never be able to hold his head up in front of Xu Damao in the future.

"Can't say it? Why can't you say it? Could it be that you want our house to be smashed by a silly pillar?"

Yan Bugui was taken aback for a moment, and then asked angrily.

"He dares!"

Yan Jiecheng raised his brows, and then shouted with a bit of sternness.

"Do you think he dares? Others don't know, how can you not know what kind of person Shazhu is? If he really commits a crime, let alone smashing our house, it will not hurt to beat you to death on the spot." strangeness!"

Yan Bugui's face darkened, and then he spoke angrily.

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Yu Li who was standing beside him without speaking, and then urged: "Hey, I said Yu Li, please help me to say something quickly! If this matter is not handled well, our whole family will have to To follow bad luck!"

When Yu Li heard this, she rolled her eyes immediately, and then said with a look of disgust: "What are you talking about? Needless to say, I know that he must be a dog for others!"

Originally, she was a little confused about where Yan Jiecheng got the money to go to the restaurant, but when she heard Yan Bugui tell about the good deeds Yan Jiecheng had done, she immediately understood.

At the same time, this also made her more determined to divorce Yan Jiecheng.

In her opinion, an old man who either lets his daughter-in-law hook up with other men, or treats others like a dog, is not worthy to be her Yu Li's man at all.

"Yu Li, don't go too far? What do you mean I'm being treated like a dog? Tell me clearly!"

When Yan Jiecheng heard Yu Li's words, he immediately lost his face.

"Heh! If you dare to do it, you won't be told? If you didn't act like a dog, how would you have the money to go to restaurants?"

Yu Li sneered, and then spoke with a face full of contempt.

"I"

Yan Jiecheng was taken aback for a moment, and then hurriedly wanted to explain.

However, before he could say anything, Yan Bugui immediately questioned: "Xie Cheng, is what Yu Li said true? Did you really use the money to go to a restaurant?"

For his iron plan, Yan Jiecheng's behavior of taking money to eat out is even worse than his behavior of spreading rumors.

"Dad, let me explain to you. It's been too long since I've had any meat, and I'm hungry, so I spent a few dollars and went to a restaurant to cook two dishes."

Seeing Yan Pugui's appearance of wanting to eat people, Yan Jiecheng's heart tightened slightly, and he hurriedly explained.

"Hmph! Are you hungry? I think you are usually too full and don't know how to be frugal at all. In view of your bad behavior, I decided to punish you for only one meal a day in the next month. Yes, since you have money to eat out, you must pay me the food expenses for next month today."

Yan Bugui snorted coldly, then spoke with a sullen face.

"Dad, you can't do this. You only eat one meal a day. You want to starve me to death!"

Yan Jiecheng stared, then hastily protested.

"Okay! You don't want to go hungry. If you can pay ten yuan to the family, then this matter will be over."

Yan Bugui nodded, and then said with a shrewd expression.

"."

Yan Xiecheng was speechless for a moment when he heard the words.

If he had ten yuan, would he still need to talk so much to Yan Bugui?

"Don't pay? If you don't pay, you will starve me!"

Seeing this, Yan Bugui frowned, and then spoke provocatively in a deep voice.

"Ouch! Dad, I don't have any money, how do you ask me to pay it?"

Yan Jiecheng frowned, and then complained with an aggrieved face.

"Can you go to a restaurant without money? Who are you lying to?"

Yan Bugui stared, then shouted sharply.

At this moment, he seemed to have completely forgotten about Yan Xiecheng's spreading of rumors, and all he wanted was to get some favors from Yan Xiecheng.

Yu Li stood aside, watching this scene, feeling a little puzzled in her heart.

Why didn't she see that this family was the best?
According to what Yan Bugui said before, this meeting is already imminent, and you still have the mood to count the ten dollars here?

She had some doubts, if she continued to live with this family, sooner or later they would kill her.

"Dad, let me tell you the truth! This money was given to me by Xu Damao, and it's only a few cents in total. I just spent it all at the restaurant!"

After a while, Yan Jiecheng finally failed to resist the pressure of hunger and chose to tell the truth.

However, in order to prevent Yu Li and Yan Bugui from finding out that he went out to eat wild food, he still concealed the real amount of money.

"Xu Damao gave it to you? Well done, why did he give you money? Could it be that he asked you to do the rumor?"

Hearing this, Yan Bugui frowned, and as he spoke, he suddenly realized something.

Seeing that Yan Bugui had already guessed it, Yan Jiecheng's lips twitched a little, but in the end he didn't open his mouth to defend, and just acquiesced.

Otherwise, he really couldn't explain why he had the money to eat out.

"Why are you so confused? For such a big matter, you asked him for a few cents, which is simply a big loss!"

When Yan Bugui saw this, he was immediately annoyed by Yan Xiecheng's way of being cheated.

In his opinion, it's not that this thing can't be done, but that it must get enough benefits.

If you can get enough benefits, what if you have a falling out with Sha Zhu?
In the worst case, just bear with it and let Shazhu beat him up to vent his anger.

Could it be that Sha Zhu could really kill him?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling a burst of heartache, and then said anxiously: "No, this matter can't just be left alone, you can go to Xu Damao now and say that the price is lower, if he wants our family to take this If the matter is carried over, we must give our family a large sum of money."

"Otherwise, let's tell the truth that this matter was ordered by him."

"Dad, how can this work? How can someone help with work and ask for extra money?"

Yan Jiecheng's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words, and he hastily retorted.

"Why can't it work? You can negotiate half-day prices when you go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables! Why can't you ask for prices again when you help others?"

Yan Bugui stared at him, and then he taught a lesson with a look of resentment.

"Dad, you also know what kind of person Xu Damao is. Now that everything has been done, how could he be willing to increase the money?"

Yan Jiecheng was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly found a reason to persuade him.

"Didn't you listen to me just now? If he refuses to increase the money, let's tell the whole story. He is so smart, he will definitely be willing to increase the money. At that time, you must get back at least 20, no, 30 It's only a dollar, remember?"

Yan Bugui rolled his eyes, and then spoke confidently.

After finishing speaking, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he had seen the scene where Xu Damao obediently paid out the money.

"dad"

Yan Jiecheng heard the words and wanted to fight for it, but was immediately stopped by Yan Bugui.

"Are you going or not? If you don't, you won't have to eat at home for the next month!"

"Go, can't I go?"

When Yan Jiecheng heard Yan Bugui's threat, he finally had no choice but to bite the bullet and nod in agreement.

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Yu Li, with a look of pleading for help in his eyes, wanting Yu Li to help him think of a way.

However, Yu Li didn't seem to see it, and even turned her head in a different direction, and came directly out of sight.

Seeing this, Yan Jiecheng was so angry that his teeth itched, and he felt an urge to beat Yu Li violently.

"Hey, why are you still standing here? Hurry up!"

Seeing that Yan Jiecheng hadn't moved for a long time, Yan Bugui couldn't help but urged.

Now, there is not much time before school ends, and he has to hurry up and settle the matter before that.

Otherwise, if Shazhu really misunderstood, then their family would suffer a big loss.

"Oh!"

When Yan Jiecheng heard the urging, he could only nod his head reluctantly, and then walked slowly towards the backyard under Yan Bugui's gaze.

While walking, he still didn't forget to think hard in his heart.

Based on his understanding of Xu Damao, if he really asked Xu Damao for more money, and still wanted such a large amount of money, then Xu Damao would definitely not agree.

In fact, Xu Damao might turn around and ask him to return the two dollars.

And now he only has ten cents left in his hand, which is not enough to pay back to Xu Damao.

In this way, it will be easy for Yan Bugui and Yu Li to know the truth.

At that time, it will be difficult for him to keep the secret of his wild food hunting.

Thinking of this, his footsteps suddenly stopped, and then he hurriedly turned and ran back towards the front yard.

No matter what, he can't let people know that he went out to hunt wild food, otherwise, he will not only have to divorce Yu Li obediently, but also lose his own reputation.

And if he doesn't have a good reputation, he won't be able to find any good job in the future.

Without a good job, how would he have the confidence to marry a good wife again?
If he couldn't remarry a good wife, wouldn't he have to become an extinct family?
Thinking of these terrible consequences, his expression also became more determined.

"Hey, why are you back again?"

At this time, Yan Bugui was preparing to plan how to use the 30 yuan when he got it, when he suddenly saw Yan Jiecheng running back, so he hurriedly asked.

"Dad, after thinking about it carefully, I think it's unreliable for us to do this!"

Yan Jiecheng took a deep breath, and then spoke in a deep voice.

"Why is it unreliable?"

Yan Bugui was taken aback for a moment, then asked with some doubts.

"Think about it! Xu Damao has always been at odds with Sha Zhu. The reason why he entrusted this matter to me is that he wants to use our family as a shield and drag our family into trouble."

Yan Jiecheng pondered for a while, and then spoke seriously.

"You stick, do you still need to say this? Could it be that I don't know his calculations?"

When Yan Bugui heard this, he cursed angrily.

Originally, he thought that Yan Jiecheng had thought of something important, but in the end all he said was nonsense.

"Dad, don't worry! I haven't finished talking yet!"

Yan Jiecheng's expression froze, and then he spoke hastily.

"Okay, then tell me quickly, I want to see what tricks you can come up with?"

Yan Bugui waved his hands, and then spoke impatiently.

"Well, that's what I think. Now that everything has been done, based on his relationship with Sha Zhu, he probably doesn't care that Sha Zhu knows that he did it, and he can even get the money back from me." , and, if he gets ahead of us and tells Shazhu that I'm an accomplice, then we won't be able to tell when the time comes."

Facing Yan Bugui's questioning gaze, Yan Jiecheng turned his head wildly, and quickly said something very reasonable.

After Yan Bugui heard this, his expression suddenly became serious.

Based on his understanding of Xu Damao and Sha Zhu, he knew that this kind of thing was not impossible, but very likely to happen.

After thinking for a while, he nodded slowly and said: "Well, what you said is not unreasonable, so, while there is still some time, you go to Xu Damao and tell us our request, and see what he will say?"

"If it's really what you said, then we'll just stand guard at the gate of the courtyard later, and when Shazhu comes back, we'll put all the matter on Xu Damao's head, and we must not let Shazhu misunderstand."

"Come on! Then I'll go now!"

Yan Jiecheng was overjoyed when he heard the words, and then hurriedly nodded in agreement.

After speaking, he quickly turned around and ran towards the backyard.

However, he didn't do what Yan Bugui said, but hid for a while beside the arch in the backyard.

Then, when the time was almost up, he hurried back to the front yard again, shook his head at Yan Bugui with a heavy face and said, "Dad, I just mentioned our conditions to Xu Damao, but he didn't even think about it." He refused, and he also said that if I quit, he would ask me to return the money."

"Look, why don't you lend me some money first, and I'll pay him back, so that he won't say that we won't do anything after collecting the money."

"Really, what's the money? He's ashamed to ask you for just a few cents!"

Yan Bugui frowned, and then spoke angrily.

After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but glared at Yan Xiecheng with disgust on his face, feeling that his eldest son was really useless, with such a good opportunity, he couldn't even take advantage of others.

Seeing this, Yan Jiecheng felt a little guilty, and hurriedly said, "Dad, let's go and guard the door!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and ran towards the gate of the courtyard without waiting for Yan Bugui to speak.
