791 Household Affairs
Although Lin Zhiyun complained about Yang Ming's impure purpose in approaching her, she still felt warm in her heart when she heard his somewhat domineering words. Lin Zhiyun stayed with Yang Ming regardless of status, and did not ask for anything else. It was enough for Yang Ming to never leave her. This is a woman's small happiness.
"It's over there." Lin Zhiyun said excitedly, pointing to a small village not far away.
Yang Ming looked in the direction Lin Zhiyun pointed, and sure enough, there was a village not far away. This is a small village near Songjiang. It is impossible for Yang Ming to come into contact with this place, and he has never been here.
"Enter through this intersection?" Yang Ming asked, pointing to the fork in front.
"Well, that's right there." Lin Zhiyun nodded, unable to hide the excitement in her eyes. The last time I came here was when I was a freshman in high school. Later I was busy studying and a lot of things happened at home. Lin Zhiyun has not been here for more than three years.
Yang Ming slowed down the car and was about to drive into the side road. Suddenly, more than a dozen people holding bright electric batons rushed out from the front of the car and blocked the car.
Yang Ming quickly stopped the car. At this time, a man in the lead ran over and pulled the door of Yang Ming's cab. However, the car had reached a certain degree and all the doors were automatically locked. Naturally, the man could not open it.
"Open the door! Get out of the car!" The man couldn't open the door, so he slapped the window vigorously and shouted.
The man's voice was very loud, and Yang Ming and Lin Zhiyun heard it clearly.
"What's going on?" Yang Ming looked at Lin Zhiyun in confusion and thought, could it be that he encountered someone blocking the road
"I don't know either." Lin Zhiyun was also very surprised. However, he said: "How about you open the car window and ask them?"
"You might as well ask me." Yang Ming shook his head. He pressed the window on his side of the car.
The window has just come down. The man stretched out his hand and tried to pull Yang Ming's neck by the collar. Yang Ming felt disgusted for a while. He quickly closed the window again. Clamped the man's hand. The man screamed. He quickly took his hand back.
Yang Ming lowered the car window again. The man immediately did not dare to make any mistakes. But he glared at Yang Ming fiercely. Yang Ming was a little unhappy. What if I offend you
"What's the matter with you?" Yang Ming frowned and asked the people outside.
"Keep your valuables. Otherwise, you won't be able to leave today." The man threatened.
"Haha -" Yang Ming smiled instead of getting angry: "Are you threatening me? I will kill you with my car right now. Do you believe it or not?"
"You dare, you will go to jail!" The man glared and said, "Stop pretending, I know you guys who are greedy for wealth and are ruthless. You are all very timid, bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. Hurry up and keep the money happily. I won’t embarrass you!” “Are you mistaken? A group of you, holding iron wheels and shovels, blocked the road and robbed us. You have threatened our lives and property safety, and if I kill you, it will be in vain! "Yang Ming smiled and said: "Forget it, I'm in a good mood today. I won't embarrass you, you go. Don't wait until I get off the car, and you all crawl back."
"Aren't you talking too softly?" The man obviously didn't believe Yang Ming's words. Thinking that he was bragging: "Let me tell you, our patience is limited. You have only one way to go now, which is to cooperate obediently and don't say useless things, otherwise we will kill you and no one will know."
Yang Ming was really too lazy to talk to these people, so he slowly pushed the car forward, trying to force these people back, but he couldn't force his way through, and it was estimated that these people couldn't really wait to be run over to death.
"Wait a minute!" Lin Zhiyun quickly stopped Yang Ming and said, "I really want to get to know this person!"
"What?" Yang Ming stepped on the brakes and stopped the car.
"Are you Brother Xiao Zhong from Grandma Zhang's family?" Lin Zhiyun asked hesitantly.
"Huh? Who are you?" The man was stunned. He didn't pay attention to Yang Ming's co-pilot just now. He just saw that it was a woman and didn't pay much attention. He didn't expect that this person actually knew him.
"I'm Lin Zhiyun, you don't recognize me? When I came back the year before last, I even had dinner at Grandma Zhang's house!" Lin Zhiyun said.
"Ah, it turns out it's you!" At this time, Zhang Xiaozhong also felt that Lin Zhiyun looked familiar. When he heard her say it, he immediately remembered: "You are the granddaughter of the old Lin family!"
"Yes, it's me!" Lin Zhiyun opened the car door and got out of the car. Yang Ming was worried and got out of the car too.
After Zhang Xiaozhong saw Lin Zhiyun thoroughly, he waved to the group of men blocking the car and said, "Everyone, get out of the way. I'm from the same village. I know you!"
"Oh..." After hearing Zhang Xiaozhong's words, these people all dispersed.
"Brother Xiao Zhong, why did you commit robbery? Do you know that this is illegal? If Grandma Zhang knows, can she agree?" Lin Zhiyun asked.
"Hey, robbery? Robbery is nothing," Zhang Xiaozhong sneered nonchalantly: "We are robbing, what do those big bosses think? After working for more than a year, they don't pay a penny of wages. How is this different from robbery? ?”
Yang Ming sighed and shook his head secretly. Zhang Xiaozhong's idea made some sense, but there was an essential difference between the two things! Their case can only be called wage arrears, but yours is obviously a vicious criminal case.
"Then you can't rob!" Lin Zhiyun couldn't understand Zhang Xiaozhong's approach.
"How can I live without robbing? You guys have been working for the big boss for a year, and the Chinese New Year is coming, but the big boss doesn't give us any money. We haven't had a good year this year. My wife and children at home are still waiting for their lives. !" Zhang Xiaozhong said bitterly: "Your grandma Zhang is old and she has to spend money for medical treatment. If you say I won't rob, what should I do?"
"Yang Ming..." Lin Zhiyun turned her head and looked at Yang Ming. She wanted to say something, but she hesitated.
Yang Ming knew that Lin Zhiyun wanted to ask him if he could help these people, but he couldn't ask him. Although this matter has nothing to do with him, Yang Ming has been cultivating Lin Zhiyun's habit of coming to him as soon as anything happens. So Yang Ming naturally couldn't let Lin Zhiyun's heart go cold. So he said: "Get in the car together and then talk slowly."
Seeing the strange expression on Zhang Xiaozhong's face, Yang Ming smiled and said: "I am Zhiyun's boyfriend. Please tell me the matter in detail and I will see if I can help."
Zhang Xiaozhong was very surprised. Naturally, he didn't really believe that Yang Ming, a stranger he didn't know, could help him solve any problems. Moreover, in his opinion, most rich people were unkind because of their wealth. Not to mention the big boss they worked for, there was a girl in the village who married a wealthy boss in the city. At that time, her brother wanted to ask her for help and see if he could speak to the boss who worked for them, but the girl's husband flatly refused at that time.
actually. Zhang Xiaozhong also thinks too simply. Who can speak to him about this kind of thing? Even if I could speak, I wouldn’t say it! What a favor this is, if the big boss really agrees to pay. The money given out was more than tens of thousands? Hundreds of thousands or millions!
Seeing that Yang Ming understood what he meant without having to speak, Lin Zhiyun was very happy. This feeling of tacit understanding is really amazing. And Yang Ming readily agreed to help, and Lin Zhiyun felt that Yang Ming was doting on her.
"Brother Xiaozhong, Yang Ming said he could help. Then there must be a way. Get in the car quickly!" Lin Zhiyun waved to Zhang Xiaozhong.
Although Zhang Xiaozhong didn't quite believe it. But it's always good to have hope, so I quickly got into the back seat of the car. This was his first time riding in such a high-end car. Looking around curiously.
Yang Ming started the car and then asked, "What's going on? Tell me?"
Zhang Xiaozhong did not expect that Yang Ming was more anxious than him. He was a little frightened. He knew that Yang Ming's car was a BMW, so he also realized that Yang Ming was a rich man, otherwise he wouldn't be able to rob him. But in his impression, those rich people spoke very arrogantly, and would not take the initiative to take on such troubles.
Seeing that Zhang Xiaozhong was stunned, Lin Zhiyun became a little anxious: "Brother Xiaozhong, tell me quickly!" Lin Zhiyun was afraid that Yang Ming would change his mind if he got impatient.
"Then let me tell you... In fact, the matter is very simple. My fellow villagers and some young people from neighboring villages went to work on the construction site. It was originally agreed that we would be given 20,000 yuan a year in wages, but we went home during the Chinese New Year. At that time, each of us only received 2,000 yuan for the new year's goods, but didn't say a word about the remaining 18,000 yuan. We asked for it, but they wouldn't give it to us. They even found someone to kick us out and threatened us, if If you dare to make trouble again, we will be beaten to death..." Zhang Xiaozhong briefly explained what happened to him: "You think, doesn't this count as robbery? He robbed so much money from us and it didn't matter. Let's rob three of them. With thousands of lands, what can happen?"
"This is different, the nature is far different." Yang Ming shook his head and said: "Don't do this kind of thing in the future before it causes any bad consequences. As for your livelihood, I will think of a way to solve it."
"Can you talk to that boss? Give us wages?" Zhang Xiaozhong immediately became excited after hearing Yang Ming's words.
"I don't dare to say whether I can speak. I don't even know who your boss is, but I can solve your work problems this year," Yang Ming said.
"Ah..." Zhang Xiaozhong couldn't help showing a disappointed expression. It would be good to be able to solve his work, but the key question is, how to spend his current days? Now almost every family has no surplus food, and they are borrowing money from relatives to survive. However, the relatives are not rich. It is okay to borrow once, but how will they live if they borrow too much
"What's wrong? Don't want to?" Yang Ming looked at Zhang Xiaozhong strangely.
"No... no..." Zhang Xiaozhong shook his head quickly: "It's just that every family of ours is in debt now. I'm afraid we won't be able to find a new job..."
"This is easy. I will introduce you to a regular security company. After you sign the contract, you can advance your salary for the first two months as an emergency. Do you think this can solve the problem?" Yang Ming owns the security company, so Yang Even if you say so. What Yang Ming considers is that the current security company's business is getting bigger and bigger, and more and more employees will be needed. After some simple training, these people can take up some ordinary security positions.
"Well...how much money can you make as a security guard in a month..." This is what Zhang Xiaozhong is concerned about.
"About two thousand." Yang Ming didn't know the details, so he could only give a rough idea. He remembered what Bao Sanli had said. I don’t know if there is a salary increase now.
"Really?" Zhang Xiaozhong was delighted: "That's great, but you didn't lie to me?" Zhang Xiaozhong thought about it, he could actually earn more than two thousand as a security guard, how great is this job? Even though I put in a lot of effort, I still can’t make more than 2,000 yuan a month. And, most importantly, you can also advance your first two months’ salary, so you don’t have to worry about being cheated again. But is what this person said credible
You know, if you are alone. There is no harm in arranging work, but this large group of people all arrange work. That's a bit unrealistic
"Brother Xiao Zhong, don't worry, Yang Ming never lies to others." Seeing her lover being questioned, Lin Zhiyun quickly explained.
"The security company I'm talking about is recruiting, and I can just speak up. I'll give you priority opportunities for employment." Yang Ming said, "However, if you are fired for being lazy, then I will I can't control it anymore." "That can't be done!" Zhang Xiaozhong said quickly: "Children in our rural areas can endure hardship the most. Besides, it is much easier to be a security guard than to work hard in a company!"
When the car entered the village, Yang Ming asked Zhang Xiaozhong to tell others what he just said, if they wanted to. I'll report to Mingyang Security Company tomorrow. It doesn't matter if you don't want to.
Zhang Xiaozhong's family lives next door to grandma Lin Zhiyun's house. After Zhang Xiaozhong returned, Yang Ming and Lin Zhiyun also entered the small courtyard. The furnishings inside the campus were very neat, and Lin Zhiyun skillfully opened a small transformer box. When the switch was turned on, the night light on the gate in the yard suddenly came on.
"Oh, fortunately, there is still electricity. The second uncle's family must come over often to take care of it." Lin Zhiyun said.
"Oh? Your second uncle?" Yang Ming really didn't know that Lin Zhiyun had a second uncle.
"Well, my second uncle's family is from a nearby village. They make a living by farming and are not rich. So if something happened to my family before, it was not easy to borrow money. Their living expenses are only ten thousand or twenty thousand a year." Lin Zhiyun explained.
Yang Ming nodded. What Lin Zhiyun said was true. Nowadays, you can't make much money just by farming near the city. Those who make money now are specialized greenhouses or farms.
"Come on!" Lin Zhiyun opened the door with the key, and then said to Yang Ming, "I'll light the stove and make a fire."
"Let me help you." Although Yang Ming has never lived in a rural area, he has seen similar situations on TV, so he said, "Shall I move some of these briquettes into the house?"
"Well, be careful, don't get your clothes dirty." Lin Zhiyun nodded and instructed.
"It's okay." Yang Ming grabbed two pieces of briquettes and went into the house with Lin Zhiyun.
Lin Zhiyun put the briquettes into the stove, then found some old newspapers, lit the fire, and started the briquettes. Suddenly, the room became hot.
"Huh..." Lin Zhiyun breathed a sigh of relief, and then said happily: "Okay, I'll take it to my childhood room to have a look."
On the right side of the entrance, there was a small room. Lin Zhiyun opened the door and saw a small room, but it was still tidy. There was a small fire bed, and the bedding on it was gone. Not far from the fire pit, there was a small table with an ancient radio on it.
"In the past, there were many toys made by my grandma here, but then they were gone..." Lin Zhiyun said with some regret, "How is it? Are you okay?"
"The small space is nice. I didn't expect that you spent your childhood here." Yang Ming said, "Show me your grandma."
"I will also be your grandma from now on." Lin Zhiyun corrected.
"Haha, yes," Yang Ming nodded: "Then let's go see grandma together."
"Well, come with me." Lin Zhiyun led Yang Ming out of the hut, walked to the innermost room, opened the door, and said: "This is grandma's old room..."
Yang Ming followed Lin Zhiyun into the room and immediately saw the portrait of an old man placed on the coffee table with a ranking.
Yang Ming took a deep breath, stood in front of the coffee table very respectfully, bowed three times in a row, and then said: "Grandma, I am Zhiyun's boyfriend Yang Ming, Zhiyun brought me to see you. "
Lin Zhiyun saw Yang Ming's meticulous and serious expression. I was very pleased. I lit the incense next to me, bowed three times, and said something silently in my heart.
"It can be seen that your second uncle is also a filial son. This place is clean, obviously the result of frequent cleaning." Yang Ming touched the coffee table and said with admiration.
"Well, the second uncle's house is relatively close to here, so I'll keep an eye on him more." Lin Zhiyun nodded: "The second uncle is a very nice person. I'll take you to his house when I have the chance.
"Okay." Yang Ming nodded.
While the two were talking, they heard a loud noise coming from outside the house, and the lights in Grandma Zhang's house next to them also turned on.
"What happened?" Lin Zhiyun asked strangely.
"I don't know. Let's go out and have a look." Yang Ming had actually seen it, but he couldn't tell it. Otherwise, if Lin Zhiyun asked him how he knew, it would be hard for him to explain.
"Xiao Zhong, it's not good. Your brother and a few people from the neighboring village went to the boss to ask for wages and were beaten to the hospital!" A woman sweating profusely said to Zhang Xiaozhong.
"Aunt Wang, please keep your voice down. Don't wake up my grandma. What's going on? Why was Xiaoyi beaten?" Zhang Xiaozhong asked anxiously.
"It's not that he thought it was bad for you to stop a car and rob someone. So he took it upon himself to go to the boss with a few boys from the neighboring village to ask for money. In the end, the boss asked his men to give them a good beating. The injuries Not too light!" Aunt Wang said.
"I'll fight him! The worst is to trade one life for another!" Zhang Xiaozhong was so angry that his whole body was shaking and his face was ashen. Just find a guy.
But he was stopped by several villagers nearby: "Xiao Zhong, calm down. How can you fight with others? They are all underworld, and you will die if you go there!"
"That's right, it's more serious to rush to the hospital!" Aunt Wang also said.
Zhang Xiaozhong gradually calmed down at this moment. He also knew that if he went there, it would be in vain. There was no way he could be the boss's opponent. He sighed helplessly and asked, "Where is my brother?"
"It's the town hospital, I'll just take you there!" Aunt Wang said.
"Okay, okay, I'll stop the car." Zhang Xiaozhong said quickly.
"Brother Xiao Zhong, take our train," Lin Zhiyun said at Yang Ming's instruction.
"Ah, this... thank you so much..." Zhang Xiaozhong was surprised and happy. He also thought that Lin Zhiyun had a car here, but it was not easy to trouble others. At this time, Lin Zhiyun took the initiative to say it, and he was naturally very grateful.
"Is this...?" Aunt Wang looked at Lin Zhiyun and Yang Ming strangely. People in several nearby villages basically knew each other. Lin Zhiyun and Yang Ming had obviously never met these two strangers.
"My neighbor, the granddaughter of Lao Lintou's family, just came back today," Zhang Xiaozhong explained.
"Ah, I remembered, is it Lin Zhiyun?" Aunt Wang had a good memory: "That's just right, your uncle's child also went and was injured!"
"Ah? My brother is also injured?" Lin Zhiyun was shocked and looked at Aunt Wang: "Why is my brother also involved?"
"We all work together..." Zhang Xiaozhong said helplessly: "My brother and your brother have only been working for half a year. Two thousand yuan is already a lot. I didn't think that they could also cause trouble..."
"Isn't it because of you? How about your brother go?" Aunt Wang complained: "Okay, stop talking, let's go to the hospital quickly."
Seeing Yang Ming's car, Aunt Wang was a little surprised. Why is Lin Zhiyun's boyfriend so rich? So what else are they causing trouble? But because I wasn’t familiar with it, I couldn’t ask more questions.
Following Aunt Wang's guidance, they arrived at a small hospital. The four of them hurriedly got out of the car and ran to the emergency room. Fortunately, the injuries of several of them were not serious. After being bandaged, they were getting tetanus shots in the ward.
"Xiao Yi, how are you?" Lin Zhiyun saw her brother there as soon as she entered the ward, with a large circle of gauze wrapped around her arm.
Lin Yi was startled when he heard Lin Zhiyun's voice. He raised his head and was even more surprised: "Sister, why are you here?"
"What did you do? You didn't know to tell your second uncle to worry, is it okay?" Lin Zhiyun was relieved to see Lin Yi's current appearance.
"I'm fine..." Lin Yi lowered his head: "Sister, can you please don't tell my dad? He will definitely be angry if he finds out."
"You, if I don't tell the second uncle, the second uncle won't be able to tell?" Lin Zhiyun shook her head and said helplessly.
Seeing that the usually docile Lin Zhiyun suddenly put on the airs of a big sister, Yang Ming was very surprised and looked at her with interest.
Over there, Zhang Xiaozhong also looked serious and stared at Zhang Xiaoyi: "How can you go to the boss? Don't you know how much you weigh? They are all thugs. If you go there, are you going to die?"
