When we got back to Pingba Village, it was already seven or eight o'clock in the evening.
Ye Beiping specially asked Jiang Hai to save food for the two of them.
Upon seeing a table full of food, Hou Baolin and Wu Di picked up the food and began to eat voraciously, disregarding everything else.
They were exhausted after running around all afternoon.
Especially when they left Hejia Village, they could see countless chimneys emitting smoke, and when they passed some houses, they could smell the aroma of meat.
Wu Di, the chubby boy, was so hungry he was drooling. If he hadn't been talking to Hou Baolin the whole time, he probably would have gone to a relative's house for a meal.
Watching the two of them wolf down their food, Ye Beiping didn't rush to speak. Instead, he smiled and exchanged a glance with Jiang Hai.
Jiang Hai feels a great sense of accomplishment. The fact that others enjoy the food he cooks gives him a sense of accomplishment.
A dozen minutes later.
After the two had finished eating and drinking, Wu Di wiped his mouth and said, "Beiping, we have already asked He Tao, and it is indeed similar to what you guessed."
Upon hearing this, Ye Beiping's smile vanished, replaced by a gloomy expression.
I never expected it to really be Ye Dongnan.
No wonder he was hiding and didn't dare to see anyone, and even came to wander around his own neighborhood.
He probably wanted to see if anyone was home and what he was planning to do, but he was caught by his own intruder.
The only thing that doesn't make sense is that they chased after him all the way, and Ye Dongnan didn't have any time to pay his respects, unless... after paying his respects, his hatred got the better of him and he came straight from behind.
It was just a guess at first, but now it seems to have been confirmed.
"Beiping..."
Seeing that Ye Beiping's expression was not good, Wu Di called out a few times.
Hearing his name called, Ye Beiping snapped out of his daze. Seeing the three people staring at him, he forced a smile and said, "It's nothing. By the way, when you asked He Tao, didn't he give you any trouble?"
He had already thought of this.
Knowing He Tao's nature, all he wants is some money.
After all, they had no grudge against each other, and he wouldn't easily resort to violence. If Hou Baolin had gone alone, things might have been different; he might have lost his temper and really angered He Tao.
But with Wu Di around, Ye Beiping believed that such a thing would definitely be avoided.
"well."
Wu Di sighed and said, "It cost twenty yuan."
"What?" Jiang Hai, who was clearing the dishes, was shocked to hear that twenty yuan had been spent on a piece of information. "You guys are really rich. You spend twenty yuan on something like this. If it were me, I would rather not have asked."
For him, although he made money, he didn't want to spend it like that.
Hou Baolin chimed in, "That's what I thought too."
"Get lost." Wu Di, seeing Hou Baolin as a weather vane, gave him a shove and explained, "He Tao also promised us that he would bring Ye Dongnan to Pingba Village tomorrow."
"Now that we've figured things out, we definitely need to find Ye Dongnan. He Tao is willing to do this, so spending some money is no big deal."
Ye Beiping nodded silently, agreeing that Wu Di had done the right thing.
“Well done, but He Tao is also a cunning person.”
"Um?"
Wu Di didn't understand what Ye Beiping meant.
Even the two people next to him were a little confused. He Tao was definitely scheming to do something like this for twenty yuan.
But why did Ye Beiping say it like that? It always feels like there's something else going on.
When Ye Beiping saw that the others were looking at him, he explained, "What do you think is the relationship between He Tao and Ye Dongnan?"
“Brother,” Hou Baolin blurted out.
Almost everyone in Pingba Village knew about that incident, so it's true that they are brothers.
Jiang Hai was like a bystander, completely confused about the relationship. Wasn't Ye Dongnan Ye Beiping's cousin?
How did he become brothers with He Tao?
Could Ye Beiping and He Tao be related?
Wu Di finally realized what was going on.
"Beiping, you mean He Tao used us to frame Ye Dongnan and swindled us out of twenty yuan?"
"It really is true, wow." Hou Baolin also realized it.
Now Jiang Hai is even more eager to hear the gossip.
Indeed, every successful person has a story behind them, just like Ye Beiping.
Jiang Hai has been in Pingba Village for several days, but he still hasn't finished eating all these melons.
Ye Beiping didn't seem to care about Jiang Hai's gossipy expression, but instead gave Wu Di an approving look and said, "That's right, that's exactly it. So tomorrow Ye Dongnan will definitely be taken to Pingba Village, and by then the whole village might know. I'm just afraid..."
"What are you afraid of?" Hou Baolin blinked.
He was completely bewildered by Ye Beiping's cryptic way of speaking.
I really can't think about so many things.
Wu Di was the same; although he was more shrewd than Hou Baolin, he really didn't know what Ye Beiping was afraid of.
"Sigh." Seeing that none of them understood, Ye Beiping could only point out, "Have you all forgotten Ye Sheng?"
"yes."
Wu Di suddenly realized what was going on and immediately said, "If He Tao brings Ye Dongnan to Pingba Village, wouldn't Ye Sheng be even more furious than us if he found out?"
“That’s right.” Ye Beiping nodded.
If something goes wrong, they will probably be implicated.
Because they gave He Tao the money to bring Ye Dongnan over. If something unexpected happens, He Tao won't be able to escape and will definitely tell the whole story.
If things go wrong, it could turn into hiring a hitman.
Wu Di panicked. He wasn't stupid; he was sure he could figure out the intricacies of the situation.
He quickly stood up: "I'm going to Hejia Village right now. I can't let He Tao bring Ye Dongnan here."
