"It's just a pity for Qin Huairu, having been stuck with such an unreliable man."
"Don't worry, what era are we living in? If Qin Huairu doesn't agree, can that bald guy just forcibly take her away?"
"Yeah, you're right. That bald guy doesn't look like a good person. If he dares to forcibly take people away, we'll report it to the authorities. I don't believe no one can deal with them."
"Forget about reporting to the authorities, even calling the security department would scare them to death."
Hearing the people in the courtyard talking about him like this, Guang Ge's face grew increasingly grim.
no!
Are all the people in your department this arrogant?
They made crickets chirp in front of me and even said they were going to scare me to death?
Brother Guang has been out there for so many years, and his neighbors all have to go out of their way to avoid him. They've never seen such a bold commoner.
"Hey, hey, what does this have to do with you?"
"If you can't stand what I'm doing, then help Jia Dongxu pay back the money. Just give me the money and I'll get lost!"
Brother Guang didn't want these onlookers to continue talking, otherwise Qin Huairu probably wouldn't be able to leave.
The older women in the courtyard, however, were not intimidated by Brother Guang at all. They pointed at him and retorted, "What are you shouting for? Is this your home?"
"You're trying to show off in our yard! Do you even know who lives here?"
"Who?" Guang Ge's heart sank, and he immediately sensed something was wrong.
"You wouldn't know him anyway, but he'll scare you to death!" The aunties blurted out, "Jia Dongxu owes you money, so take him away. Qin Huairu may be his wife, but she's not the one who owes the money. Don't even think about bullying her!"
To be fair, Qin Huairu's act of playing the green tea card was somewhat effective. The residents in the courtyard were very dissatisfied with Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu, but their attitude towards Qin Huairu was still acceptable.
Jia Dongxu's actions just now aroused the sympathy of the older women in the courtyard, so they wanted to protect Qin Huairu.
As for Jia Dongxu...
He can do whatever he wants; whether someone cuts off his finger or insults his personality, it has nothing to do with them.
He brought all of this upon himself.
“That’s right. If you dare to bully Qin Huairu, I’ll go to the security department right now and call people to wipe out all of you social scourges.”
"Get out! Get out now!"
Several middle-aged women took turns firing, leaving Brother Guang speechless.
have to!
If I can't afford to mess with you guys, then I can't afford to mess with Jia Dongxu?
So Guang grabbed Jia Dongxu's hair and sneered, "Jia Dongxu, it seems your wife isn't cooperating."
"Brother Guang, I...she won't listen to me. Give me a few days, and I'll definitely raise the money." Jia Dongxu glared at Qin Huairu and the other women with dissatisfaction.
If they hadn't been shouting nonsense, how could they have angered Brother Guang?
Now look what's happened; all the anger Guang Ge suffered over there is being vented on him.
"I'll give you time, but leave two fingers first."
After saying that, Brother Guang winked at his underlings behind him. He wanted to establish his authority in front of so many people and at the same time test Jia Dongxu's wife's reaction.
The henchmen skillfully moved closer, one grabbing Jia Dongxu's arm while the other two restrained his body.
"Brother! Brother Guang! Don't cut me! I'll pay you back!"
Seeing that Brother Guang was serious, Jia Dongxu suddenly felt a heat in his crotch and peed again: "I promise to give you Qin Huairu, but please don't chop off my fingers!"
In order to protect himself, Jia Dongxu was now going all out.
What face, what wife, can compare to one's own fingers?
His legs are already useless; if his hands are also ruined, he'll be a complete cripple.
"Pah, what a disgrace!" Xu Damao, Jia Dongxu's arch-nemesis, spat at him. "If I were you, I'd rather chop off my arms and legs than give my wife to someone else!"
Jia Dongxu had no time to care about Xu Damao at the moment; he was pleading for help from Qin Huairu.
"Qin Huairu, are you even human? We've been husband and wife, and you just stood by and watched someone chop off my fingers?"
"You're the one I married with a dowry, how dare you disobey me?"
Seeing the gleaming knife, Jia Dongxu shouted desperately at Qin Huairu.
But Qin Huairu just stared at him coldly, as if the person whose fingers were about to be chopped off had nothing to do with her.
Guang Ge was staring at Qin Huairu's figure, then shook his head with some regret.
Times have changed.
Even with Jia Dongxu's permission, they could no longer openly tie up someone else's wife.
"Hold his hand down, I'll cut off his thumb first," Guang ordered, then wiped the blade on his body, looking ready to make his move.
Just at this critical moment, Second Uncle Liu Haizhong stepped out.
"stop!"
Guang Ge looked in the direction of the voice, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are you going to pay back the money for Jia Dongxu?"
Liu Haizhong shook his head.
"What are you yelling for if you're not going to pay me back?" Brother Guang scoffed disdainfully.
"I'm the manager of courtyard number 95. Jia Dongxu owing you money is a matter between the two of you, but you can't do bad things in our courtyard." Liu Haizhong pointed to the courtyard gate with an imposing aura: "Get out of here right now!"
The Jia family couldn't afford to pay, nor could they borrow any money, so they deserved to have their fingers chopped off. Liu Haizhong had no obligation to care about it.
But you can't commit violence in the yard!
If word got out, people would think that the old man in charge of the courtyard at No. 95 was a good-for-nothing.
"Second Uncle is right, you should all get out of our yard."
“You lowlifes, you dare to yell at us? We’re being kind by not hitting you with sticks.”
"Get out! Get as far away as you can!"
"If you don't get out, I'll use a pitchfork to throw you out."
With Liu Haizhong taking the lead, the onlookers in the courtyard echoed his sentiments. They didn't want to see any bloodshed in the courtyard, especially since there were children present, and it would be even more unacceptable to frighten them.
"Good, good, you guys are really tough!"
Guang Ge was almost laughing out of anger. After so many years in the business world, this was the first time he had ever seen such a tough ordinary person.
"Let's go, let's take Jia Dongxu with us!"
After saying that, Guang Ge turned to Liu Haizhong and said, "Hey fat guy, Jia Dongxu owes me money. It shouldn't be a problem for me to take him away, right?"
"That's none of my business!"
With his hands behind his back, Liu Haizhong replied in a strong voice.
"Alright, looks like you're a man of principle. I love dealing with people who follow the rules." Seeing that Liu Haizhong didn't stop him from leaving with his men, Brother Guang didn't delay any longer and waved to his underlings to follow.
Jia Dongxu went crazy when he saw this!
At most, he'd get two fingers chopped off here.
But if they were taken to Tiger's place, they would at least be cut off.
Just thinking about it made him tremble with fear.
"Second Uncle, Second Uncle, you can't do this!"
“I am also a part of the courtyard house, you can’t let them take me away.”
