Qi Weidong pointed to the house and said, "Inside the house."
Wu Yong pushed Qi Weidong away and rushed into the house.
Wu Qin had just put down the teacup when her eldest brother, Wu Yong, rushed in, yelling, "Brother, what happened?"
Wu Yong stood in the room and looked around. He didn't see the strong man from Qi State, so he asked, "Where is my brother-in-law?"
"Guoqiang went to work. What happened?" Wu Qin asked.
Wu Yong came over and sat down next to Wu Qin. "Xiao Qin, something big happened at home. You must help me."
Wu Qin's heart began to beat again. "What happened? Tell me quickly."
Qi Weidong walked through the courtyard gate and into the house, just in time to hear Wu Yong say to Wu Qin, "Xiaoqin, I had an argument with someone yesterday and accidentally hurt him. Now he's come to my house and is making a scene, demanding compensation. If I don't, he'll arrest me and put me in jail. Xiaoqin, I can't go to jail. If I go to jail, who will take care of my parents? Your sister-in-law will definitely not be there to watch over me. What will happen to your two nephews then?"
Wu Qin had heard such words countless times. The money her family saved was used to fill the holes in Wu Yong's pockets time and time again. At first, it was only ten or thirty, then fifty or sixty, then eighty or one hundred, and that time, five hundred. She couldn't remember how many times it was done or how big the holes were.
"Brother, I'm really broke. Guoqiang keeps all his salary for himself and only gives me household allowance every month. I take all the money I need to support my parents from the household allowance. I don't have a job now, so where would I get the money to fill your hole?"
Wu Yong was furious. "How could you be broke? Don't try to fool me. You're the director's wife now. The director's monthly salary is equivalent to our annual salary. How could you be broke?"
Qi Weidong couldn't listen any longer. "Uncle, my mom has already told me that my dad keeps all the money for himself except for household expenses and doesn't give it to my mom. Don't you understand?"
Wu Yong glared at Qi Weidong and said, "Go away. What do you have to do with this? We adults are talking, why are you butting in?"
Wu Qin felt uncomfortable when she saw Wu Yong yelling at Qi Weidong. She frowned and said, "Why are you yelling at him? Can't you just talk properly?"
Wu Yong jumped up and down, "I'm so anxious, and you still want me to talk properly. How can I talk properly?"
Wu Qin thought about the ten yuan that Qi Guoqiang had just given her for household expenses this month. She thought that if she really needed the money urgently, she would give it to him first and then ask Qi Guoqiang for more later.
"How much is the difference?" Wu Qin asked.
Wu Yong said, "That family wants one thousand, but I don't have a cent. Hurry up and give me one thousand."
Wu Qin and Qi Weidong inhaled at the same time.
Wu Qin's voice became sharp. "One thousand? Are you crazy? Where can I get you one thousand?"
Wu Yong didn't care about that. "I don't care. Hurry up and give me a thousand. Otherwise, I won't go back. My parents and your two nephews are in those people's hands. If anything happens to them, it will be your responsibility."
Qi Weidong always knew that his uncle was irrelevant, but he never expected him to be so irrelevant. He took a deep breath and asked, "How badly did you hurt him?"
Wu Yong avoided his gaze.
