Chapter 284 Regret
When Widow Qiu reached the village entrance, she suddenly felt a little scared.
Do you really want to run away with the money?
Will you live in hiding from now on?
No! This can't be done.
Greed comes in a moment, and turning back also happens in a moment.
It’s still not too late to go back to Chu Dashan’s house.
Walked back in a hurry.
The person responsible for following her did not alarm her.
Ten minutes later, Chu Dashan, who was about to fall asleep again, heard the door being pushed open. He pretended to be asleep and heard Widow Qiu sigh.
When Widow Qiu turned around, he quietly opened his eyes and observed.
It was discovered that Widow Qiu put the passbook and cash back into the drawer.
Chu Dashan had to continue pretending because he had not received any news that Li Lai had been arrested.
At around nine o'clock in the morning, Li Lai boarded the train to Hai City.
He didn't realize that he was being followed by Min Yi and the others.
Li Lai wanted to rent a car to go to Hai City, but unfortunately, there was only one car at the rental office, which had been rented out in advance.
Mu Chenze and his wife had just gotten up, washed up, and were eating breakfast when Wang Depin's voice rang out from outside the courtyard gate, "Chenze, come out for a moment."
After not sleeping all night, he told Chen Ze that he had to go home and catch up on some sleep.
Mu Chenze immediately put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked at his wife, "Xiao Xuan, I think there is some news."
Chu Xuan quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Please invite Grandpa Wang to the main hall to talk."
"good."
Mu Chenze walked towards the courtyard gate and said, "Grandpa Wang, please sit inside."
Wang Depin quickly waved his hand, "I'm not going in."
He whispered a few words to Mu Chenze and left.
After a while, Mu Chenze returned to Chu Xuan.
They were alone in the room, so there was nothing to worry about. They simply relayed what Grandpa Wang had said, "Li Lai is an imposter. He took the suitcase with him. Min Yi and the others will keep an eye on him. We need to play the long game. When we get to that yard over there, we'll just spread the word that it's been dug up and report it to the security team."
"good."
After reporting to the security team openly, experts can come with special equipment to investigate.
Who knows, maybe some treasures can be dug out in the yard, so they are waiting to see.
An hour later, the news that Chu Xuan's mother's yard had been dug up spread throughout the village.
In the afternoon, experts came to investigate.
After more than two hours, the conclusion was reached.
There are a few things around the excavated area.
Someone came over to continue digging.
At around six o'clock in the afternoon, the excavated items were placed in a box on the ground.
There are ten gold rings, six gold necklaces, and seven antiques...
There were many people watching the fun outside the courtyard gate.
There was a lot of discussion.
"Why is Chu Xuan so stupid? If they just close the gate and dig it themselves, wouldn't they be rich?"
"That's right! Now, all these good things have to be handed over. I feel so bad for her."
"It definitely won't be in vain, there will definitely be a reward."
"How much can I get as a reward?"
"Chu Xuan is a smart man, he won't suffer any loss. I estimate he will get a reward of thousands of yuan."
…
Chu Xuan and Mu Chenze looked at each other. No matter how many valuable things they dug out, they would not be greedy. After all, there were traces of these things.
They looked carefully and saw that the gold rings and gold necklaces were engraved with words and numbers.
As for the antiques, they have a history. They were stolen items that were reported in newspapers a few years ago.
The experts took away all the belongings and paid someone to help Chu Xuan repair the yard floor.
Because of this incident, the relevant departments even went to visit Feng Chunhua and asked about it.
Feng Chunhua was shocked.
Regret it!
Why did they give the Chu family’s old house to Chu Xuan in the first place?
Who hid the treasure there?
It shouldn't be Liang Shi, otherwise he would have told her before he died.
He even scolded her after he knew that Chu Xuan moved into the old house.
Could it be her eldest son whom she had never met?
Over the years, I have missed my eldest son, but I have no idea where he is.
After waiting for a long time for Liang Shi to arrange a meeting between mother and son, she never expected that Liang Shi was gone.
She could only wait patiently for her eldest son to contact her.
So many treasures were discovered this time. When the eldest son finds out, will he blame him for not taking good care of the Chu family's old house?
I feel mixed emotions.
Thinking of this, she felt a little resentful towards Liang Shi. Why didn't he arrange for her to meet her son earlier?
While missing my eldest son, I also miss my youngest son Chu Zhi.
At this moment, Chu Zhi was lying on the kang crying out in pain.
The injury from yesterday's beating hurts even more after I came back from squatting.
Feng Shuai was at work and not at home, so Feng's mother was at home taking care of Chu Zhi.
Chu Zhi looked out the window from time to time and asked, "Sister-in-law, has no one come to give money yet?"
Mother Feng knew Feng Shuai's long-term plan and was very polite to Chu Zhi, "Not yet. Don't worry. Maybe something has delayed you. Just be patient and wait. Even if you don't have money, Xiao Shuai and I can't let you go hungry."
What's more, Chu Zhi had given him more than 200 yuan for living expenses before.
Chu Zhi was touched. "Jinzi, you are so kind to me! If it weren't for you during this period, I don't know how miserable I would be. When I have money, I will definitely honor you first!"
Feng's mother pretended to be kind and said, "Find a wife as soon as possible, which will be a filial piety to me. Xiao Shuai is working overtime with a client tonight and may not be home until the early hours of the morning. You don't have to wait for him deliberately. Go to bed early."
"I won't rest until the people my sister sends me bring the money."
Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. "Is this Feng Shuai's house?"
Chu Zhi perked up, "Could it be someone is here to deliver money?"
"I'll go out and take a look."
Mother Feng walked out quickly.
After a while, a man came to Chu Zhi.
The man looked Chu Zhi up and down, his face full of disdain, "Are you Chu Zhi?"
Chu Zhi felt that the visitor looked down on him, but he didn't care. "Yes, it was my sister who asked you to give me the money?"
However, when my eyes fell on the man's suit and leather shoes, I couldn't help but feel envious.
This outfit costs thousands of dollars.
Is the person next to his sister so rich?
"Yes." The man pointed at Chu Zhi's face, "Who beat you?"
Chu Zhi's face was filled with indignation. "I was beaten by a poor fellow. He would rather be locked up than pay compensation. I got beaten for nothing. I feel so wronged!"
The man pulled out a wad of money from his pocket and said, "Money talks. Whether this beating was in vain or not is up to you to decide!"
Chu Zhi took the money swiftly and chuckled, "You mean you want me to pay someone to fight back?"
"I didn't say that. Go away!"
The man walked outside.
Chu Zhi looked like a scoundrel. "Go back and tell my sister to send over a suit and leather shoes next time! The kind imported from abroad! I'm injured, so I can't send them over."
The man ignored him.
Feng's mother, who had been silent the whole time, saw the man out.
He asked politely, "Who are you to Xiaozhi's sister?"
The man responded indifferently, "I am her husband."
Mother Feng said a few polite words, "So you are Xiaozhi's brother-in-law! Will you stay at home tonight?"
"No, I'll stay at the county guesthouse." Before leaving the hospital, the man took out a wad of money from his pocket and handed it to Feng's mother, "Thank you for taking care of that good-for-nothing Chu Zhi."
Feng's mother didn't answer. "I take care of him not for money, but because he is my husband's nephew."
The man took back the money and asked tentatively, "Feng Chunhua was so cruel to your family back then. After she was imprisoned, you actually helped her take care of her son? Don't you hate her?"
