"I understand! You must find a way to get Jin Gui out! Wei Min has already gone in, Jin Gui can't afford to get hurt too!"

Grandma Xu didn't know why, but in just a few days, everything in her family changed.

Lin Chunyan certainly wanted to rescue Xu Jingui, but she didn't know why Xu Jingui had been arrested yet, so she could only comfort Grandma Xu for the time being.

"I know, Mom, don't worry too much. I can always ask someone for help again."

After watching Lin Chunyan and the police leave, Grandma Xu prepared to close the door and quietly wait for her to return.

However, she suddenly realized that the door was blocked.

Grandma Xu looked up and found that it was actually Scarface.

Zhang Jianhong bowed to Grandma Xu and said, "Good afternoon, Grandma. Shall we go inside and talk?"

After she entered, Zhang Jianhong thoughtfully closed the door for her.

Seeing Xu Jingui's two children, Zhang Jianhong thought about their first meeting and the fact that he had come today to ask for a favor.

With great effort, he pulled two candies out of his pocket and smiled at Xu Dabao and Xu Xiaobao, thinking he was being gentle. In the end, he successfully scared the two children into tears.

"Waaaaah!!! Grandma! I want Grandma! Waaah, waaaah!"

Even while crying, Da Bao didn't forget Xiao Bao. She took Xiao Bao and went straight back to their room.

Even after they closed the door, faint sobbing could still be heard coming from inside.

Zhang Jianhong awkwardly took the candy back, silently thinking: Kids are all crybabies, it has nothing to do with him.

After sitting down as if they were old friends, Zhang Jianhong said, "Grandma, I've heard about what happened in your family."

"Given your family's current situation, it's impossible for us to continue our cooperation. But, out of consideration for our past friendship, I've come up with a solution for you."

Grandma Xu believed her and asked earnestly, "What method? Can you guarantee it will get my precious son out?"

"Well, I can't guarantee it. But you can give it a try."

Zhang Jianhong patiently guided him: "Look, the best thing for you right now is to ask those leaders for help. If you're going to ask for help, shouldn't you prepare enough money?"

Grandma Xu nodded, completely agreeing.

Asking someone for a favor definitely costs money, but Grandma Xu knew that her family didn't seem to have much money left.

Most of her and Grandpa Xu's savings were taken by Xu Weimin. They both believed that money would reduce their suffering.

"But we don't have much money left! What are we going to do?"

Zhang Jianhong continued his deception, saying, "That's why I said I came here to help you."

"How about this, I'm willing to spend five hundred yuan to buy your house in the countryside. What do you think?"

Buy their houses?

Grandma Xu wasn't quite sure what to do, so she turned to look at Grandpa Xu.

Grandpa Xu felt a little resistant. Although everyone said that the city was better, the countryside was their roots!

Even fallen leaves return to their roots. Once the house is sold, won't they lose their roots?

Seeing that Grandpa Xu didn't seem too keen on selling, Zhang Jianhong continued, "Grandpa, think about it."

"Which is more important, the house or your grandson? Even if you ask for help, you might not succeed. But if you don't ask for help, you definitely won't succeed."

"Even if you sell your house in the countryside, you'll still have a place to live in the city, so what are you afraid of?"

Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu were unaware that after losing their jobs, their employers would take back their house.

So they are currently considering whether to sell the house and give it to Xu Jingui to smooth things over.

But Chen Ermei knew that this house would likely be taken back. If the house in the countryside was also sold, then they would have nowhere to live!

Just as he was about to speak up to remind Grandpa Xu and the others, Zhang Jianhong, who had noticed something amiss, warned him with a look.

Startled by Zhang Jianhong, Chen Ermei dared not speak.

In that short period of time, Grandpa Xu and his family made a decision: "We can sell you the house, but five hundred yuan is not enough."

"It'll cost at least a thousand yuan!"

Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu discussed it quietly. They felt that they had already spent a thousand yuan to compensate He Sanmei, so they definitely couldn't sell the house for only five hundred.

Zhang Jianhong was somewhat reluctant, not expecting them to actually haggle: "Old man, you should know that building a house in the countryside costs at most a little over a hundred."

"I'm only willing to give you five hundred because of our past relationship. Isn't your offer of one thousand a bit excessive?"

Zhang Jianhong certainly had the money, but he wasn't willing to give an extra five hundred.

Grandpa Xu suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "But without our house, you won't be able to do those businesses in the future."

"Or you can continue to cooperate with us, then the money you spend will definitely be more than just one thousand yuan."

Although Grandpa Xu didn't know the exact amount Xu Weimin earned from Zhang Jianhong, he guessed it certainly wasn't a small sum.

Otherwise, Xu Weimin wouldn't have taken such a risk, and his family wouldn't have had two thousand yuan to lose.

"Eight hundred."

"No, it has to be a thousand dollars, not a penny less!"

Grandpa Xu was particularly resolute this time: "You said it yourself, even if we ask for favors and try to pull strings, we might not succeed."

"We won't sell it for less than a thousand yuan! At worst, we'll sell our house in the city and go back to the countryside."

Zhang Jianhong almost blurted out: "The houses in the city don't belong to you either."

Fortunately, he held back.

Seeing this, Zhang Jianhong stood up and pretended to leave: "Since you are unwilling, then just pretend I was never here today."

After saying that, he walked straight out, thinking that Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu would try to stop him.

Who knew that even after he walked all the way to the door and opened it, no one tried to stop him.

Zhang Jianhong stood there awkwardly for a while, and finally turned around and went back helplessly.

"Okay, here's a thousand yuan. Now come with me to Xujia Village to transfer the property. Any problems?"

"Tomorrow, it's too late now, and it'll be dark by the time we get there and back."

"You don't need to walk, we'll drive. I have something to do tomorrow, let's go now."

...

Looking at Xu Jingui, who was incarcerated for the second time, Lin Chunyan felt both devastated and heartbroken: "Jingui, what did you do to be arrested this time?"

Xu Jingui gritted his teeth and said, "That bitch He Sanmei, she actually went back on her word after taking the money!"

She said I was being a pervert towards her!

"What?! No! I have to go find her!"

Lin Chunyan was about to get up and leave when she said that.

"Mom! You don't need to go, it's useless. We have no evidence to prove that we gave her money."

"But she's already told the Women's Federation that we've reached a settlement!"
