"The first option is to apologize to me, then give me thirty lashes, and then make me drink that bowl of dark, murky talisman water."
I'll consider this matter over and won't hold Li Hehua accountable again.
Do you want to agree to this? If you do, then I don't need to mention a second option!
Yu Chengyuan pointed to the dark bowl of talisman water on the altar.
Yu Sanzhuguang was terrified when he heard about the thirty lashes.
He's over forty, and he just got a few lashes from his older brother. If this kid whips him thirty more times, he'll probably be bedridden for half a month.
This kid won't hold back; he'll lift it high and then gently put it down.
Take another look at that dark, murky water. Is that something a person could drink?
Will I get poisoned if I drink it?
Just thinking about it made his stomach churn, let alone actually drinking it.
That nephew of mine is really wicked; he actually came up with such a dirty trick.
He completely forgot that drinking black water was part of his plan to get revenge on his nephew.
Is it that when it's your turn, you're not fit to drink it?
"Chengyuan, good nephew, thirty lashes are too much!"
And I can't drink that dark stuff either!
"Or you could tell me your second option!"
Yu Sanzhu hesitated for only a moment before speaking.
"Alright, I'll go with the second one!"
Don't you have a bicycle?
Anyway, since Erbao's cousin isn't home, this bicycle will just rust if it's left at home unused.
If this thing is rusty, it can only be sold for two yuan.
You rarely ride them anyway, so why don't you sell them to me? I won't take them for free; I'll pay for them for you.
Yu Chengyuan spoke in a very calm tone, as if he were discussing business.
"bike?
You want to buy a bicycle?
This isn't cheap!
Also, if I sell you the bicycle, what will happen when Erbao comes back and wants to ride it?
He'd be unhappy if he knew I sold his bicycle.
No, I can't sell you this bicycle.
Yu Sanzhu shook his head and decisively refused.
Back then, her son begged his grandmother to buy him a bicycle, and after much pleading, she finally agreed.
It cost several hundred yuan!
"By the time my cousin Erbao comes back, this bicycle will be totaled. You won't be able to sell it then."
However, if you insist on not selling the bicycle, I won't force you. You'll just have to take thirty lashes and drink that bowl of water.
Let's just let this matter go for now.
If you don't want to choose either one.
Then there's only one way: let's go and have a talk with the Party Secretary. We're not even going to see the Village Chief anymore.
They say that you, your husband, and Old Lady Wang spread superstition and harmed your own nephew and grandson.
You two may not care about your reputation, but I don't know if it will affect my cousin Erbao's future job prospects since he's in college.
I heard that the review process in this area is very strict…”
Yu Chengyuan spread his hands.
Yu Chengyuan said half-jokingly, but it was really just to scare Yu Sanzhu, since he didn't understand these things anyway.
Yu Sanzhu looked at his nephew with a mixture of belief and doubt.
Is what he said true?
Is this just me fooling myself?
Is it that serious?
Will this really affect the second child's job assignment?
Yu Sanzhu hesitated for a moment before asking.
"Of course it's that serious, I heard it from my parents-in-law."
Good jobs require a clean resume and family background; some jobs even require investigating one's ancestors for eighteen generations!
Do you think just anyone can get into a good company?
Do you think that just because you're good at studying, you can rest easy?
Yu Chengyuan continued to deceive.
When we divided the family property, we forgot about the bicycle. This time, we seized the opportunity to take it back.
This bicycle was originally bought with my older brother's monthly salary and the money from selling a pig.
His mother fed the pigs from dawn till dusk, and she also cut the pig feed from the fields.
They were fed day by day.
So it's not unreasonable to take the bicycle back.
Why should a three-bedroom apartment be cheaper?
"Alright then!"
I'll sell it to you, but do you have the money?
Don't you owe the hospital money?
Where can we get the money to buy Erbao a bicycle?
Yu Sanzhu was afraid that this brat would expose this matter and affect his youngest son's future.
That would be a losing proposition.
However, he quickly realized that this kid still had debts to pay off, so where would he get the money to buy a bicycle?
"Isn't this money?"
Take the money, and the bicycle is mine.
"And I'll have the car keys too."
Yu Chengyuan handed over a large unison bill.
When Yu Sanzhu saw the ten-yuan note his nephew handed him, his eyes widened like copper bells, almost bulging out of their sockets.
Ten yuan?
Cheng Yuan, you're not joking with your third uncle, are you?
Can you buy a bicycle for ten yuan?
You can't even buy a single wheel?
Isn't that utter nonsense?
Yu Sanzhu was so angry he wanted to punch someone, but he didn't dare.
We can't beat them!
They're young and strong; I definitely can't beat them with my physique.
Wanting to buy their bicycle for ten yuan? Isn't that an insult to him?
Moreover, this ten yuan was clearly the same bill that Granny Hua had just taken back from her, and it wasn't even their own money.
That brat really wants to take the bicycle without paying a cent; he's got a real plan.
"Ten yuan is quite a lot, that's almost ten jin of meat!"
Besides, your bicycle is old, it's been over a year, how much could it be worth?
And shouldn't you two compensate me for scheming against me this time?
