Chapter 528: Hardship

Ma Qianjin was really worried that the truths he told would affect his stepfather's impression of his family.

Waiting eagerly for Chu Dashan's answer.

Chu Dashan said with a loving expression, "I'm so happy that you're willing to tell me the truth. How could I possibly regret it? Just call your mother over."

"Okay." Ma Qianjin turned back as he walked out. "My brother and I are just as honest as I am, and my mom is the best mom in the world. Please don't get mad at us because of my mom's brother."

"No. Go!"

After getting another affirmative answer, Ma Qianjin broke into a run and said, "I'll be back soon!"

Only after Ma Qianjin's back was out of sight did Mu Chenze ask, "Uncle Chu, do you really want to marry Mei Dafeng? Her brother is a thief."

Chu Dashan placed his hand on his bandaged leg. "Dafeng is hardworking and willing to endure hardships. She treats me sincerely, so of course I'm willing to marry her. As for her brother, I won't care. It's better to lock him up. Dafeng and I can live a comfortable life."

Mu Qinlao took out his passbook and patted it. "If Mei Dafeng knew you had so much wealth, wouldn't she blame you for not helping me?"

"I will convince Dafeng." Chu Dashan was confident. "Chenze, go and do your work first! I have your father to take care of me here."

Mu Chenze sat on the hospital bed and said, "I'm not leaving. It was you who suggested that I stay to meet Mei Dafeng's family, and now it's you who's chasing me away."

Chu Dashan chuckled, "I just decided to have a chat with Dafeng on the spur of the moment. She'd be embarrassed if you, a junior, were here."

Mu Chenze stood up and said, "My dad is here, so Mei Dafeng won't feel embarrassed?"

Mu Qinlao scratched his head and asked, "How about I leave too?"

Chu Dashan hurriedly shouted, "Qinlao, you can't leave. I need your care!"

He kept blinking at Mu Qinlao.

Mu Qinlao immediately understood that Chu Dashan kept him not to be taken care of, but for other things.

So he helped Chu Dashan persuade Chen Ze to leave.

"Xiao Ze, I guess your son misses you, go home quickly to be with your wife and children!"

When mentioning his wife and children, the expression on Mu Chenze's face instantly softened.

"Okay. I'll go home first. Call me if you need anything."

"OK."

After Mu Qinlao watched his son leave the ward, he whispered to Chu Dashan, "You were making those faces just now. Are you going to bother me with something again?"

"That's right." Chu Dashan rubbed his hands together, "If Dafeng doesn't listen to my advice and insists on saving her brother, you have to help me convince her."

"You're not sure you can convince her, and I'm even less sure."

"You have to be sure. You can persuade her from the perspective of her three children. Say that if she follows me, they will never suffer from hunger or cold again. Her brother will be educated by the relevant departments for a few years. He will definitely turn over a new leaf when he is released. Then you can help her brother well. I'm not comfortable saying these things."

"I finally understand. You want me to be the bad guy and you to be the good guy. It seems you are really fascinated by Mei Dafeng."

"I do like her. Please help her!"

"Okay!"

Not long after they discussed it, Ma Qianjin came running back, panting, "Dad Chu, my mom can't come over right now. As soon as she left the security team, she was surrounded by the victims. More than a dozen families surrounded my mom. If the uncles from the security team hadn't stopped those people in time, my mom would have suffered."

Chu Dashan was very angry. "Why are those people asking your mother for money? Shouldn't they ask that thief for money?"

Ma Qianjin wiped away his tears. "Those people knew that the thief was my mother's brother. They couldn't find him, so they blocked my mother's way. Some even said they would go to my mother's factory and demand that her salary be withheld to pay off her debts..."
