Luo Hai and his mother were even more confused, as it was the first time they had ever heard of this name.
Who is this person you're talking about?
Knowing he had let something slip, Luo Yonghao pursed his lips tightly and lowered his head.
It can't be that he and Peng Tian stole money from their home to start a business because they had a grudge against Ye Beiping, right?
It can't be said that it's because of a woman.
Upon hearing Ye Beiping's name, Peng Tian's face instantly darkened, and his eyes turned vicious.
"He's nobody, just a country boy."
Peng Yuhuai and his mother immediately noticed something was wrong with their son. Even as a leader, he found Peng Tian to be somewhat frightening at this moment.
I don't understand why Ye Beiping would let his son turn out like this.
Upon hearing the name of the country boy Luo Hai, his expression darkened, but he dared not lash out because Peng Yuhuai was present.
Over the years, Luo Hai has put in countless efforts to get rid of these four words.
At this point, Peng Yuhuai realized that asking any further questions would probably yield no results, and the parents would have to find out for themselves.
After saying that, he counted out two thousand yuan and returned the rest to Peng Tian and Luo Yonghao.
“This money is ours. It’s easy to borrow again if you repay what you borrow. We won’t say anything this time. But if you dare to take money without asking your family again in the future, things won’t be so simple,” Peng Yuhuai warned sternly.
As he spoke, he counted out another thousand yuan and handed it to Luo Hai.
The parents put the money away, then got up and left, remembering they had to go to work.
As Luo Hai went downstairs, he asked in surprise, "Minister Peng, this matter is probably not that simple, is it?"
What Luo Hai could think of, how could Peng Yuhuai not think of?
Only incompetent parents would ask their children what happened, while he would choose to investigate himself.
This is the first time I've seen my son act so strangely; I definitely need to investigate this matter thoroughly.
With Luo Yonghao involved, some trivial matters might be easier for Luo Hai, the district head of Donghu District, to handle.
"Old Luo, we've been colleagues for many years, and our children grew up together. As parents, we don't just use corporal punishment; we teach them how to walk the right path in life."
His words were delivered in a very bureaucratic tone.
Luo's mother strongly agreed, and even joined in the criticism, saying, "Minister Peng is right. My husband Luo is always hitting and scolding us. The children are like mice in front of a cat when they see him. How can we educate them well?"
After saying that, she glared at her husband.
Thinking about what happened last night, Luo Hai was speechless and could only agree, "Minister Peng is right."
Peng Yuhuai merely nodded slightly at the couple's attitude; what he was about to say was his true purpose.
"Well then, I've just started working at the municipal party committee, so I'm quite busy. As for the child's matter, Lao Luo, I'll leave it to you to investigate thoroughly. Especially this Ye Beiping, I've heard about him more than once. If you want to understand your child, as a parent, you can only put in a lot of effort. Asking won't get you any information. It's better to investigate some things yourself for peace of mind."
As someone in a higher position, he still lags far behind Luo Hai in this respect.
Otherwise, Peng Tian wouldn't have such a personality—calm, composed, and with a deep-seated mind.
Unlike Luo Yonghao, whose achievements were basically the result of being disciplined by Luo Hai.
Upon hearing that the task was given by Peng Yuhuai, Luo Hai immediately replied, "Minister Peng, rest assured, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly."
They never mentioned it, even though it concerned their own child.
My main intention was to treat this as a task to be completed, which was also a way of currying favor with my superiors.
He may be brainless, but he embodies the manners of officialdom perfectly.
Peng Yuhuai naturally understood the meaning behind the words, smiled, and went to ride his old bicycle.
The Peng family.
At this moment, Peng's mother glanced at the two children, sighed, and went to wash clothes and clean.
Luo Yonghao said in a low voice, "Brother Tian, did I say anything wrong?"
Peng Tian had witnessed his idiotic behavior before, so he didn't take it to heart.
"It's alright, we'll go out together later and see how their business is going."
"Okay." Upon hearing about the business opportunity, Luo Yonghao instantly perked up again.
He truly admired Peng Tian; he didn't know where he found so many people, most of whom brought their families.
Peng Tian certainly wouldn't say that these people were all from nearby villages, and that he had gotten them to work for him for a very small price.
Ye Beiping knew nothing about what was happening with the Peng family.
He hadn't even figured out who his competitors were, and Zhou Xiaomei hadn't given him any information either.
This makes him somewhat irritable when he's doing things.
Not wanting his emotions to affect his family, Ye Beiping could only find an excuse to come out and oversee the shop's renovation.
These renovation workers all used to build houses for people.
In the 1970s and 80s, there really weren't many renovation workers. Most people handled their own renovations, unless it was a matter of skill, in which case they would hire a craftsman.
However, most artisans pass down their skills in rural areas, and there are very few such artisans left in cities, unless they work in government agencies.
I came out to do part-time work to support my family.
The people who decorated Ye Beiping's shop were employees of a government agency who came out to earn extra money.
They can handle even the simplest renovation issues with ease.
Even something as simple as glass doesn't require Ye Beiping to pull strings to buy; they have their own channels.
