Wen Liang stood still, gently pulling and turning his shoulders, instantly removing the force pushed by the man, but his body did not move at all. If it were another unrelated person, he would definitely kick him to let the other person know the consequences of touching him. However, this chain man is Huang Gang's relative after all, and Wen Liang came to help, not to cause trouble. Violence is only for temporary pleasure, but it can't help Huang Gang solve the actual problem.
"Where did you make your fortune, buddy? Do you know any poisonous snakes on the road?"
The man with the chain looked like a gangster at first glance. Wen Liang estimated that he was not at the level to recognize An Baoqing, so he had to use the poisonous snake to test the way.
The man with the chain was also surprised by the push. He knew best how strong he was. Not to mention an ordinary teenager, even an adult man would definitely not be able to block that attack. When he was secretly trying to figure out Wen Liang's background, he suddenly heard him mention poisonous snakes. He hesitated and said, "What poisonous snakes? I've never heard of that..."
"Well," Wen Liang thought for a moment and decided to lower the level, saying, "Brother Ming knows, right?"
"Ah, Brother Ming is the boss of the underworld, everyone knows that..."
"That's good to know," Wen Liang breathed a sigh of relief. It was not easy to find someone who matched his level of understanding. He dialed An Baoqing's number and said, "Ask Brother Ming to call me. Yes, I don't have his number now... Well, it's nothing, just a small matter, you don't have to worry about it..."
Less than a minute later, the phone rang. Wen Liang answered it and said a few words. He handed it to the man with the chain and said with a smile, "Brother Ming wants to talk to you..."
The man with the chain knew he had met a powerful person today when Wen Liang took out his cell phone. Cell phones were still rare these days, and ordinary people couldn't afford them, let alone equip their children with them. He smiled and took it with both hands. Ming Ge's voice came from the receiver: "I'm rushing to the hospital now, tell me who's brave enough to mess with me! Also, I'm warning you, kid, if you dare to piss that person off, I'll break your two arms, no, I'll break the arms of your whole family, do you understand?"
The chain man was so scared that his legs went weak. He was just an ordinary gangster. How could he really know Brother Ming? He couldn't recognize his voice, but the aura in his words didn't sound fake. He said, "Brother Ming, I'm Little Pig Chop, and Brother Gou is my boss..."
"Dog brother? Which dog brother? Where is he from?"
"Nanjie, Brother Ming, listen to me, this is all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"
"Misunderstood you MB, South Street... Oh, South Street puppy, screw you MD, when did the puppy call you brother dog? Just wait, I'm going to call your boss..."
"Don't, don't, Brother Ming, do you have any instructions... Yes, yes, I know, I know, don't worry, don't worry..."
The man with the chain almost broke his neck. He carefully held the phone and handed it to Wen Liang. He immediately changed his expression and said, "I was wrong just now. I was blind. Please don't blame me. We don't want this store anymore. Let's borrow the 5,000 yuan from my second brother. Just consider it as supporting Xiaogang's schooling."
Huang Hua refused to listen when he heard that. Just as he was about to speak, he was glared at by Piglet. He was very dissatisfied but didn't dare to say anything.
The nickname of the chain man was actually Pork Chop. Wen Liang almost suffocated to death. Seeing that he was sensible, he smiled and said, "That's not the case. We should do what we should do. It is only natural to pay back debts. Besides, Huang Gang will have to rely on you elders to take care of him in the future. But how to pay back the money, we will discuss it later."
Wen Liang took care of the family and greeted Huang Gong who was squatting on the side, saying: "Is this Uncle Huang Gang? It is said that the eldest brother is the father, so you should speak out, but I see that the aunt is the head of the family, so I will say a few words to her..."
"Whatever you say," the woman said with a face full of anger, "Why do you, an outsider, want to interfere in our family affairs? I'm telling you, either you pay me back the 30,000 yuan now, or the storefront is transferred to my name. There is no other way!"
Wen Liang smiled and said, "Auntie, don't be so harsh. Can I ask where you two work?" In 1996, not many families could easily take out 30,000 yuan. Judging from the way the uncle and aunt in Huanggang were dressed, they should be working people. Although Wen Liang knew nothing about the other party's situation, he could still make out a few clues just by his eyesight.
The woman asked cautiously, "Why are you asking this?"
Little Pig Chop came over and said, "My eldest brother works at the water company, and my eldest sister-in-law used to work at the supply and marketing company, but she was laid off last year..."
Wen Liang nodded, picked up the phone and made a few calls, then handed it to Huang Gong. Huang Gong heard the voice and said, "Secretary Wang, hello."
"Huang Gong, I heard that something happened at home. Do you want to take a break from work for a while and take care of your family affairs first?"
Huang Gong was dumbfounded. All departments were now undergoing reform and integration. Although the water company was a public institution, there was no guarantee whether it would be restructured or lay off employees. If he was really suspended, the outcome would be hard to predict.
"Secretary Wang, don't worry, the family issues can be resolved immediately and will definitely not affect work."
"That's good, Huang Gong. I've always had high hopes for you. You should focus on your work and not let trivial matters distract you."
"I understand, thank you Secretary Wang, thank you!"
Wen Liang put the phone back in his arms and said, "How about it, can I say a few words now?"
"You decide. It's up to you how to handle this matter!"
The woman angrily said, “Huang Gong, your head was kicked by a donkey… ah!”
Huang Gong suddenly turned around and slapped the woman, then yelled, "Shut up!"
The woman had never seen Huang Gong lose his temper so much. She covered her face and was too scared to speak. Wen Liang ignored her and said calmly, "Since you are all quiet, I will give you an idea. The 30,000 yuan from my uncle's family is also a life-saving gift. You can't not pay it back. I will give you this storefront for free for five years. After five years, the ownership will still belong to Huang Gang. However, the 5,000 yuan from my aunt's family will be repaid by my uncle. In addition, Huang Gang has no source of income now, so I ask my uncle to sponsor 200 yuan a month for living expenses. What do you think?"
Pork Chop was the first to agree, saying, "Okay, no problem, this is the best way to handle it."
The woman covered her face and said in disbelief: "The storefront belongs to my family?"
"It's not yours, it's on loan to you. You have to return it in five years." Wen Liang smiled and said, "Auntie, in five years, even if I owe you the 30,000 yuan in rent, that should be enough to pay it back, right?"
"That's enough."
The woman was so happy that she didn't care about the pain on her face. She rubbed her hands and smiled. Huang Hua had coveted this shop for a long time and even planned what business to do. She was not willing to give in. Just as she was about to raise her voice to make a scene, Xiao Zhupai grabbed her hand tightly and looked at her fiercely, making her swallow the words in her mouth.
It was the first time that Huang Hua saw her lawless husband being so afraid of people. His eyes secretly wandered over Wen Liang. He was just a little kid with two eyes and a mouth, and his fur had not yet fallen off. How could he be so capable
She was so curious!
Qin Yin smiled, and her eyes never left Wen Liang. She had a great liking for this boy during their brief encounter last year. His manners, his courtesy, and his mature charm were unmatched by many adults. Today, they met again in an unexpected occasion. She watched him handle the most troublesome household affairs with ease, his methods were sometimes tough, sometimes smooth. He didn't look like a 16-year-old boy at all, but rather like an old man who knew the world and could discern people's hearts.
As the saying goes, even a judge cannot settle family disputes. Wen Liang, as an outsider, was able to decisively use his power to suppress people and convince them with reason in such a short period of time without hurting family ties or crossing the bottom line, leaving Huang Gang with room to maneuver. No one else could have done better than him.
"Words are not enough. I will ask a lawyer to come over and have everyone sign an agreement. As for the funeral, I will have to rely on your help. Huang Gang is young and will definitely repay you in the future."
Wen Liang gestured to Huang Gang, and the girl stepped forward and bowed deeply to everyone. Huang Gong was so ashamed that he helped Huang Gang up and said, "Don't say anything. I will make sure that the funeral of the second son is dignified. Xiao Gang, from now on, you can live in your uncle's house like my daughter. It will be convenient for you to eat and go to school..."
Huang Gang didn't need to see the aunt's face that suddenly turned ugly, and he knew that the uncle's suggestion was completely unfeasible. He said, "Thank you, uncle. I can take care of myself. It's okay."
Huang Hua saw that things had come to this point, and at the instruction of her husband, she also held Huang Gang's hand and said a few heartfelt words. In fact, it is not true that people cannot survive alone in the world, but humans are social animals that combine rationality and sensibility after all. Sometimes, hearing heartwarming words is better than anything else.
When going downstairs, Little Pork Chop whispered to Huang Gang: "You are so lucky to have met a noble man. If you have any trouble in the future, please look for your friend. There is nothing in Qingzhou that he cannot do."
This was a coincidence. With Piglet's knowledge, he naturally thought that anyone who could make Ming Ge on the road obey him would be able to walk sideways in Qingzhou. However, he didn't know how high the mountain was outside the mountain. In fact, the little Ming Ge hadn't even started yet.
When they got outside the hospital, Wen Liang turned around and looked at Huang Gang, saying, "Take care of your family matters first, don't rush to school. If you have any trouble, remember to call me. Do you remember my number?"
Huang Gang nodded quickly, Wen Liang smiled slightly, and said: "Then I'll go..."
Before she finished speaking, Huang Gang took a step forward reluctantly, lowered her head and said nothing, but her actions revealed her inner feelings without reservation.
Qin Yin wiped the tears from her cheeks and said, "Don't worry, we are all here. If you have any problems, just call me or Wen Liang, okay?"
Huang Gang then relaxed a little. In fact, she and Wen Liang had only known each other for three or five days, but for some people, it seemed as if they had known each other for a lifetime since the day they met.
Wen Liang and Qin Yin walked side by side towards the street. Wen Liang said, "Teacher Qin, where are you going? How about I take a taxi to take you there?"
Qin Yin smiled and said, "Not busy. If you have nothing to do, let's go have lunch. It's past one o'clock and I'm a little hungry."
Wen Liang laughed heartily and said, "Okay, I'll treat you today as a thank you for Teacher Qin's help last time!"
