Chapter 50: Being Deceived
You have to know that Zhang Ying's family was very poor and it was impossible for them to give her a penny of help. Moreover, he was away from home for a long time, and he couldn't imagine what would happen to him afterwards.
Seeing the man's suspicious eyes, Zhang Ying's tears flowed down. She hurriedly tried to grab Yang Aiguo's hand, but was ruthlessly thrown away.
Zhang Ying was completely panicked.
"I didn't, I didn't steal anyone!!"
"Where did that money come from? Don't say it fell from the sky!" The man's tone was mixed with anger, and he almost spat out these words with gritted teeth.
"This money..." The woman's face was pale, and her voice was as light as catkins drifting in the wind. "This money is what Godmother left for Liansheng."
Yang Aiguo's face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Can't I even afford to raise a child? Why are you using this money? It should be saved for Liansheng to get married!"
After saying that, he glanced at the woman eagerly.
This made Zhang Ying, who was already angry, suddenly regain his senses.
Speak without thinking and loudly.
"He caused me to lose my child, he deserves to pay me back!"
Yang Aiguo seemed to have never known this woman before.
His eyes fell from her to the wild wheat on the ground, and then to the white flour snacks in the cupboard and the dried hawthorns piled in the corner. His pupils dilated and his breathing became slightly choked.
Suddenly remembering what Captain Yang said and recalling his increasingly silent nephew, the man slammed his fist on the table, and blood immediately appeared.
Zhang Ying was startled and whispered, "Patriotic..."
"Get out..." The man's eyes were as big as copper bells. He saw clearly what was in the cupboard door just now. When he connected the whole thing, he felt ashamed to face his ancestors.
"What did you say?" Zhang Ying was stunned.
Yang Aiguo's eyes were red. He took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice, "Go back to your parents' home first and calm down."
Zhang Ying's eyelids trembled slightly, and she blurted out in anger, "Yang Aiguo, don't push your luck. When I return to my parents' home, I won't go back even if you beg me."
The man was obviously still angry and remained indifferent to her harsh words, unlike his usual humble self.
Zhang Ying gathered the rice in the bag together with shaking hands, and went back to take a look.
The man's eyes were filled with mixed emotions as he spoke resolutely.
"All this food is from Liansheng, don't take a single grain."
As soon as he finished speaking, he poured out half a bag of cornmeal he had brought back and stuffed it into Zhang Ying's hand as if he was giving away a beggar.
"Let's go back..."
The latter stared at him intently, teeth clenched, and ran out of the door without even packing his things.
The man didn't move an inch.
After a while, he squatted down with a bitter heart and scooped up the white rice in his hands. He also had to clean up the mess left by Zhang Ying.
As soon as Yang Liansheng entered the door, he saw his uncle cleaning things in the kitchen with a broom. His tall figure looked lonely.
The young man walked forward and looked at the mess on the ground, his eyes twitching.
"Uncle, is this the grain that woman bought?" He really has a lot of money but nowhere to spend it. What's the point of buying this wild wheat?
Yang Aiguo paused slightly.
I looked up at the boy. He was half a head taller than in the spring, a lot thinner, and looked a little frail.
He handed the boy half a bag of rice and a pile of banknotes he had gathered. He spoke with a hoarse voice, "Your aunt was cheated, and this is all the food she has left." He paused before continuing, "This is the money your grandma left behind. Don't worry, your uncle will definitely make up for it for you sooner or later."
