As soon as Ye Yaodong's ship docked, he got off the ship before unloading the cargo.
He wanted to see how long the queue at the dock was right now, and wonder if he should leave one person behind to watch it while the others went back to eat and come back to unload and weigh the goods when there were fewer people, so as to avoid having a group of people waiting there and going hungry.
We came back late a few days ago, so there were only one or two people in line before they got their turn. Today, there were a lot of people and goods on the dock, so there was no need for everyone to wait there.
As a result, when he just got ashore, he heard everyone chatting and gossiping while queuing, and they even talked about him.
"Hey? Adong, you're back? Oh, go home quickly, no, go to that scoundrel Xu's house, the kid from the Xu family stole your ambergris..."
"Ah?" Ye Yaodong was confused. Was the kid from the Xu family talking about Xu Lai Fu
If he hadn't checked last night, he would have been really scared right now.
However, wasn’t what Xu Lai Fu stole yesterday a piece of wood
Isn’t it mistaken for ambergris
No one has discovered it's fake yet
Not really
What he did can only be seen from a distance. Only a fool would not be able to recognize it if he looked at it up close.
And why is he suddenly involved
Seeing his bewildered and puzzled expression, the kind-hearted lady said sympathetically, "You don't know yet, do you? Xu Laifu picked up a piece of ambergris on the beach yesterday. He just admitted that he stole it from you at the instigation of his great uncle. Many villagers heard it."
"Did you pick it up at sea, but didn't recognize what it was, so you just left it somewhere else, and it ended up getting stolen by the Xu family kid?"
"ah?"
Why did he become less and less confused the more he listened? What was going on? Who was instructing him? Why was it so complicated
"Oh, why are you so stupid? Stop making such noises and go back quickly. That's your treasure. Before I came out, I saw your mother hurriedly running to Xu's house."
"My mother ran away to Xu's house?"
"Yes, your mother ran to Xu's house in a rage, and there is no man at home. Go back quickly."
Upon hearing this, Ye Yaodong did not bother to figure out the whole story, and hurried to the ship to tell his father, and asked his second brother-in-law to help look after the goods on the ship.
He asked his brother-in-law to run with them to Xu's house quickly. He was afraid that if they ran too slowly, his mother would suffer a great loss. That family was full of scoundrels.
A Zheng and Xiao Xiao were also very loyal. They threw the goods on the boat to his second brother-in-law and ran after him.
On the way, he met Xiaoliu, who was asked by Ye's mother to go out and look for someone. Ye Yaodong listened to the little boy repeating to him what had just happened, and he felt both amused and helpless.
What a big mistake!
Can he say that the Xu family had brought trouble upon themselves
Now, he was not in a hurry anymore. So many of the neighbors watching were full of justice and felt that he had suffered a great loss, so they all stood on his side.
In addition, the Xu family offended all the villagers who were watching the fun yesterday, and there was also the accumulated dissatisfaction of the neighbors, so they had long been disliked.
His mother is very powerful and will definitely not suffer any loss.
Father Ye was also confused. Could it be so dramatic
It was obviously fake, but the thief family was so stupid that they believed it was real. The neighbors were so enthusiastic that they wanted them to seek justice? To get their things back
Then ask the Xu family to compensate them with a real ambergris
Father Ye felt that his brain was not enough. How did things develop like this
"Adong? Walk faster..."
"Don't be in a hurry. Let my mother go over and make a fuss first. She actually came to our house to steal things. Let her vent her anger first."
The brother-in-law was confused. Wasn't ambergris very precious? Why wasn't he in a hurry
Xiao Liu was so anxious, "Uncle Dong, that's ambergris, you need to go quickly, who knows where they have hidden it."
"The Xu family is full of idiots. That idiot Xu Laifu, can he tell the difference between wood and ambergris? He dug his own grave."
"What?"
"What I picked up from the sea was just a piece of wood!" Ye Yaodong intended to tell the truth.
"ah?"
This time, not only Xiaoliu was surprised, but Xiaoxiao, A Zheng and Lin Xianghui were all shocked.
Everyone thought that Xu Lai Fu stole Ye Yaodong’s ambergris, even Xu Lai Fu admitted it, but Ye Yaodong said it was just a piece of wood!
!
Ye Yaodong smiled, revealing all sixteen teeth. "A few months ago, I don't know who was smart enough to paint a piece of wood and threw it into the sea. I thought it was a treasure at first. Li Laoer also found it and argued with me, but I finally fished it out."
"Seeing how anxious he was, I deliberately treated this thing like a treasure with my father to tease him. After returning home, I just threw it into the groceries pile. I didn't expect that he would still be thinking about it."
"I don't know when he found out about me, but he even ordered that idiot Xu Laifu to steal from me."
"Fuck it! Don't tell it out loud. Just make it real and admit that he stole your ambergris. Then you can get him a real one and see how he compensates you. Empty his family's fortune! Even his underwear will be used as compensation." Ah Zheng glared.
Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes. He was not stupid.
If he admitted that what he picked up was real ambergris and the Xu family didn't find it, he might be the one who would be in trouble.
I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves thinking about it.
Since even he is sure that there is ambergris, then it must be in someone's hands. The one at the Xu family is fake, and it is possible that someone has guessed that the real one is still in his possession.
Then there will be no peace in his family anymore.
They directly admitted that what Xu Lai Fu stole was fake, and that the shop owner Wang had made a mistake. The Xu family happily accepted it without even looking at it, which led to a huge misunderstanding.
It would be good to end the ambergris matter here. The Xu family will be punished, Li Laoer will give up, and he can have peace of mind.
"I am an honest man and I never lie to anyone. How could I do such a thing? The leaders have told us that we should seek truth from facts and say what we mean."
Everyone rolled their eyes at the same time and said they would never believe him.
Xiao Xiao gave him a thumbs up and said, "I respect you for talking nonsense with such a serious attitude."
"Alas, I am actually a soft-hearted person. I will go over and give Xu Laifu a good beating later. That will be enough. We are all from the same village. We should love each other and live in harmony with our neighbors."
"You are very soft-hearted. Let your mother take the lead in making the first scene. After she has made enough noise, you can slowly make the second scene to finish the mess." Xiaoxiao also agreed seriously.
Ah Zheng was still confused and regretful, "It would be better to ask them to pay for the ambergris. It's a treasure. How can I get more money by beating them up..."
Ye Yaodong said earnestly, "How much money do you think they have to pay? Let's not talk about their wealth first, let's talk about whether they are willing to pay. They can just lie on the ground and throw a tantrum, saying that what they stole was fake and they have no money to pay, and they can even turn the tables."
"You can't do anything about it. That family is full of scoundrels. If you smash their house, they won't pay you any money. They might even lie outside your house and cry every day. They are the ones who always blackmail others. How can others blackmail them?"
“That makes sense!”
"Really? So just be merciful and beat them up. I don't need their money. I love money and I got it honestly."
Xiao Liu said weakly: "That's called a gentleman loves money, but he gets it in a proper way..."
Ye Yaodong patted his head and said, "What grade are you in? You are good at literature, but I said Laozi, not Gentleman."
"Uh..." Xiaoliu had no words to say about his brain's flexibility, "I'm in the second year of junior high school."
"Study hard and make progress every day!"
Ah Zheng said, "We won't let Li Lao Er off later. A guy from another village actually dares to come to our village. He's looking for death."
"That's right. Without this bitch instigating the theft, nothing would have happened."
After Xiaoliu understood the whole story, he was speechless about the Xu family's stupid behavior.
"Is this the straw in their heads?"
"But it might be shit."
"Dongzi, hurry up. It's been so long. Go and see if your mother is going to suffer any harm. What's the situation?"
"Okay, let's go faster then."
