It turns out that after Lin Jingyan and the others came out last night, they heard Huang Lao Er say that after he went to the house of Huang Lao San's friend who had found him a job, he did not find Huang Lao San or his friend.

According to the neighbors, the two left in a hurry in the evening, carrying large bags and small packages.

Upon hearing this, Huang Lao Er immediately sensed something was wrong. After further inquiry, he learned that his friend had recently been dismissed for neglecting his duties at work, resulting in the loss of state property.

There's absolutely no way you could sell a job to someone else!

Huang Lao Er knew he had been tricked as soon as he heard this, but after asking around, he still didn't know where the two had gone.

So he hurried home and told Grandpa Huang.

After Grandpa Huang found out, he asked the people in the compound to help him look for it.

He didn't want to report it to the police at first, but Lin Jingyan and others persuaded him, since everyone knew that Huang Laosan had a lot of money, and they had a share of it.

Grandpa Huang had no choice but to report it.

Finally, the residents of the courtyard and the police searched all night, including bus stations, train stations, and transportation stations—anywhere they could get around.

But as I said before, there are no surveillance cameras these days, and in such a vast sea of ​​people, where are you supposed to look?

The only thing that can be confirmed is that no information about the two people was found at the bus station and the train station, which means that the two people did not use a letter of introduction to buy tickets.

However, this does not necessarily mean that the two did not leave from here, since the current system is not perfect and there are still many loopholes that can be exploited.

Police suspect they either evaded fares or hitched a ride on the train.

...

Su He was stunned when she heard the whole story.

"So, there was no work at all from beginning to end, and Huang Laosan lied to his family about everything?"

Grandma Su nodded. "Yes, I heard that he conspired with his friend to cheat the Huang family."

"But why?"

"What else could it be? For money, of course."

“I know, but that’s not what I’m asking.” Su He shook her head.

"I just don't understand why Huang Laosan did this? He has food and drink at home now. Although he doesn't have a job, the family hasn't shortchanged him on any food. Why would he leave?"

He doesn't have a letter of introduction. Where can he go after lying to his family and leaving?

Those who wander far from home may even face uncertainty about their livelihood; isn't that a losing proposition?

"Who knows?" Grandma Su sighed. "They were probably too young and thought the outside world was so great. Sigh, they just ended up ruining the Huang family."

Isn't that right?

Su He also sighed. For his sake, Grandpa Huang had humbled himself and borrowed a lot of money from others, and this was what he got in return. If it were her, she would be furious!

As they were talking, the Huang family started arguing again. It turned out to be Aunt Ren and Shi Fen, who had rushed back from her parents' home after hearing about the trouble at home.

Aunt Ren blamed Shi Fen for her bad attitude, otherwise Huang Laosan wouldn't have left. Shi Fen felt that Huang Laosan's current situation was all because the old couple spoiled him. A doting mother spoils her son, so he couldn't blame anyone else.

Neither of them could convince the other, and the argument was getting more and more heated. In the end, Huang Lao Er and Huang Daye spoke up and each scolded their wives.

Aunt Ren was so angry that her chest hurt, and Shi Fen was so angry that her stomach hurt. In the end, neither of them could win the argument.

Su He and the others all sighed upon hearing this.

Lin's mother shook her head and said, "There's no use arguing now. We might as well see what to do. Sigh, that kid is really a jerk. He took the money and left without thinking about what his parents would do. How are we going to pay back so much money?"

"yes."

Su He was also worried for them; the Huang family now had nothing but a house.

With Huang Lao Er's salary alone, who knows when he'll be able to pay off all that money? He can't possibly sell the house to pay it back, can he?
