He originally thought that it would take several days for the village or county committee to reveal the truth after a thorough investigation, but he did not expect it to be exposed so quickly, and it was revealed the next afternoon.
If he hadn't beaten his wife so badly, Ye Yaohong probably wouldn't have been exposed so quickly.
As the saying goes, every cause has its effect!
As soon as Ye Yaodong woke up from his nap, Lin Xiuqing asked him to make vinegar.
"Suddenly my mouth feels tasteless and I want to eat some sour radish. I just went to the field and pulled one out. Go buy some. I'll slice it and salt it to remove the water."
"You can eat whatever you want. Pickled radish? What's so good about it? How about I ride my bike to town and buy you some apples? I heard that apples are good for you."
"Dad... Dad... I want to go with you... I want to eat apples too..."
"Dad, apple...apple..."
Two children who heard the noise ran over immediately, hugged his legs and shouted excitedly.
Ye Yaodong slapped everyone on the back of their heads, "Go away, what do you have to do with this? With such sharp ears, you can come running over from far away when I tell you to eat."
"I want to go, I've never ridden on the back of your bike..."
"Isn't it time to let you sit in the house? Don't get in the way. I'll take you there when the market opens in a few days. It's not crowded in town now."
Ye Chenghu's eyes lit up, "Well, don't lie to us. I'll remember that you said you would take us to the movies last time, but you never did."
What a good memory!
Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, sent the two children away, and walked towards the bicycle parked in the house.
Lin Xiuqing held him back and said, "Don't bother. I don't want to eat apples. I just want something sour. You don't have to come all the way here."
"No way? That means sour boys and spicy girls, right? Don't scare me, two sons are enough..."
"What nonsense! I just want to eat right now. I won't eat it then."
She doesn't want another son...
"Oh... forget it, just eat whatever you want. I'll make vinegar for you."
Holding an empty bottle in his hand, Ye Yaodong walked slowly along the path where the sun shone. All he could hear were various voices discussing Ye Yaohong, in the faintest sounds.
When he got to the store to buy vinegar, he heard someone helping him to take it off.
"Ye Yaohong is really not a human being. He even cheated fellow villagers out of their money. How can he be considered a businessman? He is clearly a money-swindler."
"Could there really be some misunderstanding? He just left, maybe something really happened. Maybe he can still pay the interest next month?"
"Yeah, maybe he just doesn't want to be in the spotlight? It's normal for the wife at home not to know what business the man is in!"
"Forget it. The village committee said he was suspected of being involved in a pyramid scheme, and he just didn't want to be in the spotlight. Why did he beat his wife so badly? He must have felt guilty, so he ran away without even celebrating the winter solstice."
"I heard that many people sent 500 yuan yesterday morning. I originally planned to just give it a try, but now I regret it all day long."
"Luckily I was a little slow. When I went there, I just heard that he had passed away. Oh my god, luckily, luckily, I was scared to death. 500 yuan was almost wasted. This was our family's income for most of the year."
"I don't know if we can find him. His family is in a big commotion right now. A lot of people have gone to his house to make trouble. Many people are standing at the door to watch the fun. It's crowded. His mother is still there, assuring him that he will come back during the Chinese New Year and that she will definitely give him money..."
"Ah Dong, Ah Hong is on the verge of becoming a millionaire, is it your turn now?"
scare!
Why is he involved again
Ye Yaodong held up the vinegar bottle and glared, "What does it have to do with me? I don't have 10,000 yuan. I said it was a mistake last time. Maybe my cousin really had something urgent and left early? It's not illegal for him to borrow money for business, right? If you want to know whether it's true or not, just wait. Everyone in the county knows that he is a millionaire, so they will definitely take it seriously."
"I don't know if we can get our money back. After knowing about the Rat Club, who would dare to give him money..."
After making the vinegar, Ye Yaodong walked out with the bottle of vinegar. Thinking that everyone in the village was talking about this matter, he thought about it and decided to go over and take a look to see what was going on.
I didn't expect that it would become so popular in just the time it took me to take a nap.
By the time he arrived at Ye Yaohong's doorstep, it was already surrounded by crowds of people, most of whom were there to watch the fun, while the victims were at home arguing.
"Make way, make way..."
Ye Yaodong finally squeezed through the crowd and heard the sound of banging on the table. Someone threatened them to pay the money by the end of the month at the latest, and to return the principal with interest, otherwise the house would be demolished.
There were also many of Ye Yaohong's cousins standing in the room to help speak for the villagers. His uncle, second uncle, and his father were also there, all helping to appease the villagers.
He also went to stand beside his father and listened to his relatives and friends say, "Everyone go back first. It's hard to say how this will turn out. At least the interest was paid on time for the first two months. You gave him the capital, isn't it just for his monthly interest?"
"This money has just been given, and it will definitely not be due until next month. You might as well wait and see..."
"The village committee said he was a member of a pyramid scheme. He must have taken the money and ran away."
“That’s…that’s…”
"The village committee just came to learn about it and said there was a rat gang, but they didn't say he was involved in the gang. It's normal for business people to be short of money. He's a fellow villager, and he paid the interest on time before, so he didn't owe anyone anything."
"Qiu Ju is now injured and lying in bed and can't get up to explain to everyone. Please give her some time..."
"Yes, the monk may escape, but the temple cannot. He has only a bunch of children at home now, and the woman is still unable to get up. Please give him some time. The county still lists him as a millionaire, so they will definitely look for him."
His father also helped and said a few words.
How family members get along is their own business, but when it comes to outsiders, family members will unite.
He was the youngest among so many relatives and friends, so he didn't need to speak. Although there were many villagers, there were also many relatives and friends who helped to speak. Everyone finished speaking, and he just stood next to his father to show his support.
In the end, it all came to nothing because there was really no conclusion yet and the money had just been paid and the deadline had not yet expired.
Having said that, I had no choice but to go back and see if I could find the person first.
When most of the people had left, he saw his eldest and second sisters-in-law standing in the corner, as well as four or five cousins-in-law...
It turns out that quite a few relatives have a share.
After all the villagers left, they closed the door and started asking their uncle and aunt, but they knew nothing either.
When I asked the cousin's wife lying on the bed, she could only cry and shake her head.
After asking without any results, everyone could only leave temporarily. Ye Yaodong walked with his father, and his two sisters-in-law followed beside them.
Father Ye frowned and asked, "How much money did you two invest?"
The two men frowned, feeling extremely annoyed, but as there were so many relatives and the father-in-law present, they could not say anything and could only stand there and watch.
Mrs. Ye said with a bitter face, "One thousand. Fortunately, I was persuaded by Adong yesterday and didn't give any more money."
Father Ye was very disappointed with his daughter-in-law, but he couldn't scold her. He glared at her and then looked at Sister Ye. "What about you?"
Mrs. Ye also frowned, looking unhappy, "I also gave one thousand..."
"Huh?" Ye Yaodong was surprised.
Mrs. Ye was also surprised, "Isn't yours 500?"
She turned her head away somewhat unnaturally, "I sent it over again the day before yesterday morning, thinking of sending the same thing as you."
Ye Yaodong couldn't help but hold his forehead. Wasn't his eldest sister-in-law always quite sober? Unexpectedly, the second sister-in-law was persuaded, but the eldest sister-in-law was unwilling to give up.
Maybe it's the competition between sisters-in-law
You got more than me
So I can't distance myself from you? I have to add more
"Brother, do you know?"
Mrs. Ye remained silent!
Ye's father was immediately furious and started to curse, not caring that he was the father-in-law, "Are your heads filled with straw? You are all like this, you don't even tell the men in the family when you take money? You just gave me 1,000 yuan, how can you be so careless?"
"How long does it take to save up 1,000 yuan? Isn't it tiring to work? How much do you make in a day weaving a web? One yuan. Why do you think 1,000 yuan is worthless?"
Mrs. Ye said weakly: "This... Isn't this because we are all family members..."
"Do you treat them as your own? Do they treat you as their own? You have pig brains. You will piss me off to death." Father Ye glared at them fiercely, then turned and left. It was the wife who should be the one to scold her daughter-in-law.
At this point, Ye Yaodong was too lazy to talk to them. It was a headache. They were not his wives. He should just wait for his elder and second brothers to come back from the sea.
He did not plan to go out to sea, but would collect the goods caught in the traps every other day. However, the eldest and second brothers Ye were reluctant to rest early. After all, they had to pay rent to their father, and they felt that there was still some time before the New Year, so they might as well go if they could.
They don't know about this yet, and I guess there will be more trouble when they come back in the evening.
Ye Yaodong strode straight home with the vinegar bottle, ignoring his two sisters-in-law behind him.
Lin Xiuqing waited for a long time before seeing someone. "Did you go to town? You just came back now. You are just jealous. You didn't come back for such a long time. I thought you fell asleep."
"I heard the discussion in the village, so I went to my eldest cousin's house to take a look."
She took the vinegar bottle from his hand and asked curiously, "How is his family?"
"A group of people came to his house to make trouble. A lot of relatives went to his house to help speak up. My father also went there."
"What do you mean?"
"Nothing has been said. Isn't it still unconfirmed? We have quite a few relatives, and we have sent them all away for the time being."
"They will probably come again in a few days. Luckily we didn't take any money. My eldest and second sister-in-law must be regretting it now. My second sister-in-law also took 1,000 yuan. Now she's going to be in big trouble."
"My eldest sister-in-law is not much behind. She secretly sent another 500 yesterday morning."
"ah?"
Lin Xiuqing saw Mrs. Ye Dasao and Mrs. Ye Ersao, frowning and walking towards her from a distance with grim expressions, without saying a word.
The two men glanced at the couple, without saying hello, and went straight into their own houses.
She looked at Ye Yaodong, pulled his sleeve, and motioned for him to go inside and talk.
"Why is sister-in-law suddenly so irrational?"
"Money can move people's hearts, or is there no comparison, no harm? You get 50 interest, I only get 25, that's not okay, I have to do the same as you? Maybe that's the mentality?"
Lin Xiuqing had nothing to say.
After a while, the children all came back from school. Just as the two of them were about to run over to play with their older brothers and sisters, bursts of scolding came from next door.
She stopped the two children and told them to play at home and not to go over to get scolded.
