Chapter 574 Leeches
Tang Sufen looked at her eldest son Huang Jianshe in disbelief and asked in a trembling voice, "What did you say? Say it again?"

Huang Jianshe cried and said, "Mom, I don't know how I ended up owing so much debt. Mom, if I can't pay back the money, they're going to chop off my hands."

"Five thousand dollars, how can I pay you back?"

Tang Sufen had saved 4,800 yuan in the past three years, and used the money to buy a house for the second son and his wife. Because the second daughter-in-law said she would only have a baby after buying a house, she bought the house with the money and quickly prepared for pregnancy, and Xianzi Ah was already pregnant.

Hearing that she had no money, Huang Jianshe knelt on the ground and begged: "Mom, if I don't have the money to pay them back, they will stomp my hands. Meili will definitely divorce me and take my son away. Mom, you must help me, otherwise my wife and children will be separated."

Unable to resist her son's pleading, Tang Sufen could only say that she would find a way. Her way was to sell a jadeite carved snuff bottle and a Yuan Dynasty blue and white porcelain pen holder that Lu Hongjun had collected for 4,900 yuan. She added another 100 yuan to make up the total of 5,000 yuan.

Tang Sufen said: "Just this time. If you still owe me money next time, I won't be able to help you."

After swearing and making an oath, Huang Jianshe took the money and left. It's not quite accurate to say he left, he ran, and his steps were very light.

Half a month later, Lu Jiaxin heard from the housekeeper that Lu Hongjun called her and said there was something important. The housekeeper said, "Boss, the old man said it was a serious matter and asked you to call him back as soon as possible."

After hearing this, Lu Jiaxin put the matter aside.

Lu Hongjun couldn't wait for her call, so he had no choice but to find Lu Jiaguang and ask him to call Jiaxin and tell her that there was something important.

It was impossible for Lu Jiaguang to call Lu Jiaxin without knowing the reason. He asked, "Uncle San, what happened? If you tell me clearly what it is, I won't call Jiaxin."

My sister is still angry about the last incident. If he says something that offends Jiaxin again, it will only add fuel to the fire. Although Jiaxin doesn't answer the phone now, at least the phone can still be reached. If she changes her phone number, she won't be able to contact her if something happens.

Lu Hongjun looked at the door and saw it was locked. He walked up to Lu Jiaguang and said in a very low voice, "I found two treasures at the antique market last year. Who would have thought that Tang Sufen stole them and sold them, and then bought two fake ones and put them back to fool me. I found them when I opened the cabinet a few days ago, but she still refused to admit it."

Lu Jiaguang's face darkened instantly. Fortunately, he didn't call Jiaxin, otherwise Jiaxin would have been furious again: "I told you not to marry her, but now you've married a thief."

She must have stolen the old things to support her son. Fortunately, everyone put pressure on him to give the old things he had hidden to Jiaxin, otherwise it would have fallen into the hands of this thief sooner or later.

Lu Hongjun was silent for a moment, then said, "I asked her to return the money, but she said it was all spent. I asked someone to check and found out that Huang Jianshe's sister-in-law had bought a shop a few days ago and said she wanted to open a gold shop. The couple invested 10,000 yuan."

"and then?"

Lu Hongjun said: "I went back to question Tang Sufen, and she fainted after hearing what I said. Later I found out that Huang Jianshe was afraid that she would not pay him, so he lied that he owed 5,000 yuan from gambling and that the creditor would chop off his hands if he didn't pay. Tang Sufen was afraid that he would lose his job and his family would be separated, so she stole my treasure and sold it to use the money to pay off his debt."

Lu Jiaguang couldn't breathe out. What kind of person is this family? "Uncle, it's no use calling the police. She's your wife. It's not a crime to sell your things."

Lu Hongjun naturally knew this: "I told Tang Sufen that if she didn't return the money, I would sue Huang Jianshe for theft."

This is a solution, but if we want to find Jiaxin, things will definitely not be that simple.

Lu Hongjun sighed and said, "Tang Sufen didn't allow me to report the case, and said that if I did, she would not live with me anymore." "I insisted on calling the police, but I didn't expect that she said that if I ruined Huang Jianshe, she would report Jiaxin and me and ruin our reputation."

Lu Jiaguang couldn't help but laugh, mockingly: "Then let her report it. I want to see what she can do to ruin Jiaxin's reputation."

Jiaxin was still a student before she went to Hong Kong City, and her resume was spotless, so there was no way Tang Sufen could have any evidence against her. It was ridiculous to threaten them with this.

Lu Hongjun said: "She knew that I gave Jiaxin a batch of things, and she guessed that they were valuable old items. If she reports it, the higher-ups will definitely send someone to investigate."

Lu Jiaguang's heart skipped a beat, but he quickly recovered: "Uncle, didn't you tell us that those things came from legitimate sources? If they came from legitimate sources, let her report it if she wants."

Lu Hongjun said: "I exchanged the things for materials with money. Materials, you know that era... if you really look into it, it is against the rules."

Lu Jiaguang's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. He held back his anger and said, "Uncle San, you can't be threatened by her. Otherwise, she will use this to ask you for money in the future."

"Third Uncle, go back and tell her that if she dares to make up stories, I will make sure Huang Jianshe is sent to jail to work on a sewing machine, and Huang Jianjun will never have a good life. As long as she is not afraid of her two sons being separated from their wives and children, she can sue her."

Lu Hongjun felt relieved. He said, "Find a chance to tell Jiaxin about this."

Lu Jiaguang refused and said in a bad tone: "Uncle San, Jiaxin is still angry about what happened last time, so let's not make things difficult for her."

"She still hasn't answered our calls about what happened last time. If you keep going on like this, Ajie and I won't be involved in your affairs in the future."

The last sentence made Lu Hongjun shut up.

After thinking it over, Lu Jiaguang decided to call Jiaxin. He couldn't tell the housekeeper about this, so he just left a message and asked Jiaxin to call him back.

Lu Jiaxin called back only after hearing his message saying that it was something very important.

Lu Jiaguang told Tang Sufen what she had done: "Jiaxin, I will take care of this matter. But the things that Third Uncle gave you were not from a legitimate source. You should know this."

With Lu Hongjun's salary and benefits, it is impossible for him to collect so many treasures. If he could hide these treasures well, he would know their value. Even in that era, they could not be exchanged for a few melons and dates. But she thought that since Lu Hongjun had retired, no one would pursue these matters. At that time, many people who took lives were handled with care. Lu Hongjun was just trading materials to gain some benefits. No one would have the time to dig up these old accounts. Of course, she was not afraid of being found out. Anyway, she didn't know about it, and ignorance is not a crime.

Lu Jiaxin asked, "Do you think this matter will be exposed?"

Lu Jiaguang sighed, "This family is like leeches. Once you get involved, you can't get rid of them. When Uncle San can't satisfy their desires, no one can predict what they will do."

At this point, he suddenly felt fortunate: "Jia Xin, fortunately you went to Hong Kong City instead of going to work in the company as Third Uncle planned."

If Jiaxin graduates from university and joins the company, if something happens to her uncle, it will definitely affect her future, and she will be led by the nose. Now, if anyone dares to report the uncle, no one in the Huang family will be spared.
