Chapter 194: Checking Gan’s House Again
Yu Wenhai thought that he had been a decent person since he moved into the Gan family, and had never done anything to harm the Gan family.
After being caught for stalking, he was not panicked. He smiled and said, “Brother Li Zhi, what are you talking about? I came to help them because I saw that they were tired from moving bicycles yesterday. How can you say that I betrayed them?”
“Second brother, don’t make excuses. Although you have done a good job and have always behaved very honestly, your mistake was that the timing was wrong.”
“Xingyuefang has been calculating against us. It’s really a coincidence that you showed up at this time.”
“And second brother is too impatient, and has been making too many small moves recently.”
“From today on, second brother doesn’t need to come to help.”
Yu Wenhai was dissatisfied: “You haven’t found any evidence that I betrayed you, so why don’t you use me?”
"Second brother, you are wrong. I am not the county magistrate and I cannot judge cases. Who I use or not uses depends on my mood, not on the evidence."
Gan Fanren patted Li Zhi on the shoulder: "Let's go."
Yu Wenhai sat down on the ground.
Gan Fanren was too ruthless, too cold, and too unreasonable.
No matter what, he was Gan Fanren's second uncle, and Gan Fanren drove him out of Feixing Pavilion so mercilessly.
He suddenly felt cold all over.
It was the people from Xingyuefang who helped him find the Gan family. They also gave him 20,000 banknotes and a house as long as he found the person who made the bicycle.
If he couldn't find this person, Xingyuefang would not let him go.
He was walking on the street in a daze, and suddenly someone bumped into him. He raised his head and saw a very strong middle-aged man.
The man had a long knife on his waist and a dark birthmark on his face: "The master wants to see you."
Seeing the man, Yu Wenhai's body trembled even more. He recognized this man!
This man was from Xingyuefang, and it was this guard who came to see him every time.
He lowered his head and followed the man.
At this time, Wanyan was waiting for him in the teahouse. Wanyan
was playing with a cup in his hand, with a deep fatigue on his face.
"You are here?"
"How about the thing I asked you to do?"
Yu Wenhai knelt at Wanyan's feet with a plop.
"I am incompetent. I didn't find the person, and I was discovered."
"I didn't do it. I am a waste. I will return the money and the house to you immediately."
Wan Yan smiled: "You don't think that the money of our Xingyuefang is so easy to take, do you?"
"Just because you didn't do it, you want me to let you go?"
Wan Yan kicked Yu Wenhai hard.
Yu Wenhai fell backwards comically and lay on the ground.
Wan Yan stepped on him: "I want you to pay for your life!"
Wan Yan passed by Yu Wenhai, and the guards behind her immediately grabbed one of Yu Wenhai's arms and dragged Yu Wenhai through the streets and alleys.
"Everyone come and see, this is the second brother of the owner of Huiyan Pavilion, who stole 20,000 taels of silver from our Xingyuefang!"
Hearing Yu Wenhai's identity, the people looked at him in surprise.
"The owner of Huiyan Pavilion looks so powerful, but I didn't expect the second brother to be a thief!"
"The brother is a thief, and the sister is probably not a good person either. I think we should not go to Huiyan Pavilion to buy things."
"I went to Huiyan Pavilion to buy things before, but I lost 20 taels of silver. Could it be that someone from Huiyan Pavilion stole it?"
"Come on, your broken family, even if you sell all the things, it may not be worth 20 taels, and you lost 20 taels of silver! You really can flatter yourself."
The people started arguing.
Hearing everyone talking about Huiyan Pavilion, Wan Yan smiled.
Yu Wenhai hurriedly explained: "I didn't steal the money, I didn't, that money was clearly given to me by you, you want me to..."
"Shut up... What do you mean by ours and yours? Why don't you take a piss and look at your own virtue? How can you be worth 20,000 taels? Why should I give you 20,000 taels?"
As soon as Wan Yan's words came out, they caused laughter from the people.
Wan Yan said to the people: "Everyone, I have reported today's incident to the authorities. When the officials come, they will naturally give justice to Xingyuefang."
"I, Wan Yan, invite you to go to Gan's house with me to give justice to Xingyuefang. After the matter is done, Xingyuefang will give each of you a sachet."
Even if Wan Yan didn't give them sachets, these people would still follow to see the excitement, not to mention that there were free sachets now.
Everyone followed Wan Yan in a mighty manner.
Wan Yan was followed by the officials.
Approaching the Gan family.
She made such a big noise, and she thought she would see the Gan family panicking, but she didn't expect the Gan family to be very calm.
The gatekeeper glanced at them indifferently and went to report slowly.
Just kidding, he wasn't afraid of thousands of troops during the war, so why would he be afraid of these spectators?
Knowing that the Gan family was a tough group, the officers didn't force their way in. This time they were planning to use the power of the people to frighten the Gan family, so that the Gan family wouldn't make trouble.
There was no other way, they couldn't beat the Gan family's guards, so they could only use this method to check and balance.
Yu Wenshu was wearing a white robe, with the scent of ink on his body, and smiling. When he saw his brother being tied up like a dumpling by the officers, his expression didn't change, but he just trembled slightly.
"Yu Wenhai is suspected of stealing the property of Xingyuefang. Now, the shopkeeper of Xingyuefang has reported to the police. We are ordered to come and search. I hope you will not interfere."
Yu Wenshu smiled and said, "What are you talking about? Since you are here to investigate the case, I will cooperate."
Yu Wenshu let the people in and let everyone look around. He found a place to sit down and read a book.
This leisurely look made Yu Wenhai feel flustered.
"Brother, brother, you must save me."
Yu Wenshu changed his posture and continued to read.
"Brother..."
Yu Wenhai wanted to say something, but was slapped hard by the officers.
"If you dare to say another word, I will shut your mouth immediately."
Seeing that his elder brother was so indifferent, Yu Wenhai was unsure. He was not sure whether his elder brother would help him.
The place where he hid the money was not very clever, and it was soon found by the officers.
The banknotes were also printed with the seal of Xingyuefang, which was naturally irrefutable.
"You have stolen and captured both the person and the property. What else can you say? I think your Gan family is a den of thieves. Maybe there are other loot! Search them carefully for me."
Seeing that the officers were going to search other places, Yu Wenshu closed the book.
"Wait!"
As Yu Wenshu said this, the guards surrounded the officers.
"I don't need to clean my brother's room. You can search it however you want. If other places are dirty, it will be troublesome to clean them."
"Last time you searched, it took us several days to clean the house."
Yu Wenshu sighed, as if he was really worried about cleaning the house.
