Lu Jiangting was startled, "Be careful of Jianguo? What happened to him?"
Liu Anguo shook his head. "I can't really say, but I don't think he's a good person."
Lu Jiangting: “…”

"He and the Jianjun brothers look so much alike. So, does that mean Jianjun isn't a good person either?"
"That's different. Good or bad people don't judge by appearance, but by the eyes, the demeanor, and the words he says."
"What did he say?"
"Do you know what he was doing while you were outside moving the luggage?"
"What?"
"He looked around your house, room by room, and commented on it, as if he was just here to look at the house, not like a guest at all. He also asked me if this house had any connection with Jianjun. It was really weird. Jianjun had been dead for so many years, what did it have to do with him?"
Lu Jiangting frowned slightly.
Liu Anguo added: "Anyway, you should be careful. I always feel that it is not simple for them to run so far for more than a thousand yuan."
Lu Jiangting nodded, "Okay, thank you, An Guo."
He decided to ask when he had time. After what happened with Fang Qing, he would no longer tolerate it for Jianjun.
Help if you can, and do the best you can. If you really can't help him, there's nothing you can do.
Then...be more careful.
Fang Qing was buying groceries outside when she was stopped by Wang Zhong.
On the busy street, he said directly, "Fang Qing, when are you going to pay me back? Give me a date."
Fang Qing was stunned for a moment, and when she saw people around her looking at her, she felt a little nervous.
"Dad, what are you doing? Go home and talk."
"What home? There is no home for me here. Don't call me dad anymore. My son has been dead for several years, and you married someone else. I am not your father."
"Well, Uncle Wang, if you have something to say, please speak nicely."
"I can't say it nicely. After all these years, when are you going to return the thousand-plus dollars to me? That's the money my son earned through hard work. I'm telling you, you shouldn't take it, and you can't take it."
Fang Qing blushed and wanted to leave, but Wang Zhong held her back and kept asking her to pay back the money, otherwise he would not let her leave.
Fang Qing was helpless and just said, "I really don't have any money."
"I don't care whether you have it or not, you have to pay me what you owe me. If you really can't, I'll go find the boss."
"I don't have any money even if you ask the leader. If I had, I would give it to you. The key is that I really don't have any money."
The tug and pull between the two of them attracted the curiosity of the middle-aged ladies who were buying vegetables, and they all asked what was going on.
So Wang Zhong began to cry and said that his son had died in a mission a few years ago.
Their family has been poor peasants for generations, but they have such a promising child, and he is the only college student in their area.
After so many years, smoke only came out of their ancestral grave this time, and then it disappeared.
When everyone heard him say this, they were immediately filled with sympathy.
Kind-hearted people naturally have a good impression of soldiers, especially those who died in the line of duty.
Wang Zhong saw that the story was almost over, so he continued, "My son is gone, and the organization compensated me with more than 3,000 yuan. Half of the 3,000 yuan went to my daughter-in-law, and half went to me, right?"
Everyone said, "I don't know how to divide it, but there will definitely be a share for you."
"Yeah, I should have a share, but I didn't expect my daughter-in-law to take advantage of me because I had never been to school and didn't know anything, and she kept the matter a secret and took all the money. Then she remarried with my eldest grandson, and I had no objection, but shouldn't I get the money that's mine?"
"That's for sure."
"She won't give me any money now, and is hiding in the south city thousands of miles away. I'm old and in poor health, and I'm counting on this money for medical treatment. Look, please give me some judgment, how much is the round-trip fare for me? If she doesn't give me any, I can't afford it, what should I do? There are a lot of farm work waiting for me to do at home."
He had just attracted a wave of sympathy, and now he was attracting another wave, directly nailing Fang Qing to the rack of shame.
The uncles and aunts are very strong in fighting spirit. As they are also elderly people, they naturally sympathize with the elderly more.
Fang Qing had no way to leave. She was surrounded by uncles and aunts and was forced to accept their accusations.
Fang Qing was angry and aggrieved, and shouted, "Don't be fooled by him. He is not good to his son at all. If Jianjun were alive, he would not support him."
When Wang Zhong heard this, he stamped his feet and refused to admit it.
"Oh, son, did you hear that? This vicious woman tried to sow discord between us when you were alive. Now that you've been gone for so many years, she's still saying bad things about me."
Some uncles and aunts have been provoked by their trouble-making daughters-in-law, and Wang Zhong's words really touched their hearts.
They didn't believe Fang Qing at all and thought she was the one who instigated it.
"Oh, I've never seen anyone so vicious. His son has been dead for several years, and you have married someone else. Why are you still slandering your ex-father-in-law?"
"Pay back the money you owe to others as soon as possible. Don't let the old man make a wasted trip from a thousand miles away."
"Don't be so heartless. People are watching you from heaven."
"Oh, what should I say to a woman like this? If she is willing to listen to reason, will she bully me like this?"
"Bah, you are greedy for the elderly's life-saving money. Don't be so greedy."
"I'll beat you to death, you heartless thing."
This time they not only blamed her verbally, some people directly picked up rotten vegetable leaves and threw them at Fang Qing. There was even an excited middle-aged woman who grabbed her hair and twisted her arm hard, causing Fang Qing to scream in pain.
Fang Qing's vegetable basket was crushed by the excited old men and women.
She was anxious and subconsciously took out Wang Jianjun's name. "I am a soldier's widow, I..."
Slap, someone slapped me in the face.
"Bah! You are bringing shame to the military."
Wang Jianjun's protective amulet failed for the first time.
People obviously sympathize with Wang Zhong more.
It was Fang Qing who really took the money.
Fang Qing yelled, "Give it to me, I'll give it to you. If I don't have any money, I'll sell my blood to give it to you. Please let me go..."
Then everyone let her go.
Fang Qing looked disheveled. She lifted her messy hair to reveal her tearful face.
"Uncle Wang, I didn't mean to withhold money from you. I didn't have much education, and I didn't know you had a share of the money at that time. My comrades in the army helped me with the formalities, and they gave me the money, and they didn't say you had a share of the money. Now you suddenly come to me and ask me for the money, but I really have spent it all and I don't have any more."
"This is your lie. I don't believe it."
"I can't help it if you don't believe me. Anyway, I really have no money right now."
"you……"
An old man stopped Wang Zhong and said, "Brother, don't be anxious. It doesn't matter whether she didn't give it to you on purpose or she didn't know. What matters is that she has to give you the money now."
