Chapter 281: A Long Story, Teenage Idol



He is clearly a relative of the leader, so why did he become a member of the public asking questions?

This kind of scam is not the first of its kind. It was very common in the 1990s, and people were still falling for it in 2019.

Wen Hongyan was desperate and tried all kinds of treatment, but was noticed by her deceptive neighbor, who set a trap for her specifically based on the Shu family's situation.

Wen Hongyan didn't know how to sell second-hand bags, so a kind neighbor took her there.

When helping her sell her gold jewelry, the neighbor also negotiated prices for her with the gold shop owner, allowing her to sell her gold jewelry at a higher price.

What a welcoming neighbors!

Turns out to be a liar.

Wen Hongyan was arranged clearly from head to toe. As soon as the bags and gold were sold, Wen Hongyan handed all the money to the scammer without even having time to warm the money.

Wen Hongyan collapsed on the spot.

Shu Lu was confused. Was all her money scammed?

The Public Security Bureau has filed a case against the mother and daughter. As to whether the money that Wen Hongyan was defrauded of can be recovered, it all depends on fate.

When a scammer rents a house, he may even use a fake name. Fake ID cards are rampant nowadays. If you go to Jiuyanqiao and spend some money, you can not only get a fake ID card, but also diplomas from famous domestic universities and various skill certificates.

It is highly likely that this money cannot be recovered.

The scammer was able to succeed because he took advantage of Wen Hongyan's desperate mentality of trying anything to cure her illness. The police also gave Wen Hongyan a lecture.

Tell her to follow the rules and regulations in everything she does in the future. Wen Hongyan doesn't want to bribe or use connections, and scammers won't take advantage of her.

"If you have money to give to a liar, can't you just hire a good lawyer?"

The police officer's voice echoed in Shulu's ears. Shulu often wiped her tears and pretended to be pitiful, but she had never cried as sincerely as she did now.

I usually watch a lot of legal dramas!

Why don't you think of hiring a lawyer?

Why did I panic?

Wen Hongyan was cheated out of money. Shu Lu did not have a Chengdu hukou, so if she wanted to transfer to other schools in Chengdu, she had to pay a tuition fee, the difference being the amount of money.

The problem is that there is no money.

At least I'm out of money.

Wen Hongyan still had some savings, which she had usually withheld from Shu Guobing, but she was now completely unwilling to give them out. Shu Lu hadn't been to school for a week. If she didn't return, she would probably become a dropout. Despite their reluctance, there was only one way for Shu Lu and Wen Hongyan: return home!

Cai Youlun wanted to warn Shulu again and ask her to behave herself.

Unexpectedly, Wen Hongyan destroyed the mother and daughter's escape route in just a few days.

Rich people don’t care about being cheated out of tens of thousands of dollars, but for Wen Hongyan and Shu Lu, tens of thousands of dollars are enough for Shu Lu to finish high school in Chengdu.

At worst, the mother and daughter could go back to their hometown and buy an old house and give it to the liar. Cai Youlun didn't know whether the mother and daughter were heartbroken or not, but he himself was very heartbroken because the money in Wen Hongyan's hand was given by Shu Guobing, and Shu Guobing's money was given by Cai Youlun!

Local bosses like Cai Youlun are somewhat superstitious. They have always looked down on Shulu. After this incident, they feel that Shulu's family is unlucky and that anyone who comes into contact with them will suffer misfortune.

Maybe this is how Xiao Cai got into trouble.

After all, Xiao Cai and the Shu family usually go in and out together and spend the most time together!

When Cai Youlun thought about it this way, he thought that the money he lost was just a gift to the plague god, and he would earn it back from Zhao Dong sooner or later.

Wen Dongrong had actually been keeping an eye on Wen Hongyan and Shu Lu's movements. He didn't feel relieved until the mother and daughter left Chengdu and returned to their hometown.

Because they were siblings, Wen Dongrong didn't kill the mother and daughter, but he wouldn't do anything more. Even if Wen Hongyan went to Grandma Wen to complain, Wen Dongrong wouldn't spend a dime on his sister.

No matter what method Wen Hongyan used, even if it was to do hard labor to move goods, as long as she was willing to endure the hardship, there would be no problem in supporting Shu Lu's studies.

There are so many poor rural families who, as long as they have a little ambition and can still move their hands and feet, will not let their children drop out of school - even if Shu Lu really drops out of school, it has nothing to do with Wen Dongrong.

When Chen Ru heard that Wen Hongyan and Shu Lu had returned to their hometown, she couldn't help but hum a song when she got home from get off work.

Wen Ying also breathed a sigh of relief.

Being picked up and dropped off at school by Chen Ru every day is a burden of love. Wen Ying still prefers to act on her own as she has more freedom in her time.

Shu Guobing and Xiao Cai, the two thugs who broke into the house, have been transferred to the detention center by the police station. They will be sentenced accordingly. For the time being, no one will threaten Wen Ying's safety.

On Friday night, while Wen Dongrong was there, Chen Ru held a family meeting and made a financial plan for the family.

If Wen Dongrong stopped using her salary to subsidize her relatives and saved her performance bonus, her family would be able to buy a car by the end of 2007 at the latest!

During this period, the money earned by the two people was used to renovate the house.

It’s better to have a set. After it’s ready, the whole family can move in and save on the rent here.

The other set is simpler and can be rented out after it is completed to offset part of the mortgage.

In the future, when Wenying is ready to get married, the rented house will be taken back and renovated. After Wenying finishes her undergraduate studies and then a master's degree, she will be at least 25 or 26 years old to get married, which is still more than ten years from now.

After using rent to pay off the mortgage for more than ten years, the mortgage for one house is almost paid off.

It seems that no income has been generated in the past ten years, but the house belongs to the individual after the loan is paid off. Chen Ru doesn't believe that the house price will not rise at all in ten years!

"Hasn't Grandma Wen Ying always wanted us to drive her back to the countryside? When our family buys a car, she can ride whenever she wants, and you don't have to worry about any bad influence or gossip!"

Old people like to show off their children. Grandma Wen’s wish is to return home in style in a car and show off to her former neighbors.

In other words, just as important as taking a car home is the leisure and filial piety of children to take their elders home. Middle-aged people, with elderly parents and young children to support, are constantly busy with the demands of life. While filial piety towards their elders is often expressed through giving them money, few truly put down their current tasks and spend a full day with them, a truly meaningful act of filial piety. While giving money is not wrong, being willing to accompany an elder on seemingly meaningless activities brings an indescribable sense of fulfillment.
