Yanling pulled a wallet from the bottom of his suitcase. He chuckled to himself, thankfully everyone uses mobile phones for money transfers now, so the robber probably wouldn't have guessed he still had cash.
Looking at the several thousand yuan in his wallet, he didn't know what to do with it, so he bought a train ticket back to Beijing, intending to go back to his uncle and ask him to take him in.
He went to the station, bought a ticket, and boarded the train for his return journey. The person monitoring him also boarded the train and returned to Beijing with him.
When Ah Qi received the news, he was speechless. He swore that what happened to Yan Ling in the neighboring city had nothing to do with him.
He never expected Yanling to be so unlucky, as if she were possessed by the god of misfortune. She ran away for less than half a month before returning in disgrace.
Now that Yanling's phone is gone, he definitely won't dare use his old phone number again. As long as he misses the mediation call from the court, the case can be filed immediately.
When the trial officially begins, with both witnesses and physical evidence, Yanling will have no choice but to go to jail. At that time, the big boss will definitely give him a generous reward.
Thinking of this, Ah Qi was in an unusually good mood. He called a few of his underlings and, as usual, went to Xie Jiashu's house.
Upon arriving in Beijing, Yanling borrowed a phone from a station staff member and called her uncle, who told her to wait for him outside the station.
Yanling was somewhat dissatisfied. Why didn't her uncle tell her the address and what did he mean by making her wait here? But she didn't have the confidence to question her uncle, so she could only stand there in the square in front of the train station, feeling frustrated.
The uncle immediately told his aunt about it and even asked his wife for her opinion.
After thinking for a moment, his aunt said to him, "He has no money now, and his phone was stolen, so he can only come to you, his uncle. Here's what we'll do: go and get 50,000 yuan. Consider it our last token of our appreciation. We're just an ordinary family, and this is all we can give."
Seeing her husband sitting still, as if he had something to say, the aunt thought he was being overly affectionate again and was about to scold him when Jiang Wei's voice rang out: "Isn't 50,000 too much? We don't earn money easily."
These words made Auntie very happy. In the past, Jiang Wei would have immediately let Yanling move into his own house and given him all his money.
This sucker of mine has finally woken up and actually realized that he might have paid too much money. It's a miracle that he's been cheated!
His aunt patiently analyzed the pros and cons for him: "Think about it, your sister gave me 100,000 yuan last time, saying it was for An'an's living expenses, but Jiang Xin took An'an back later, didn't she? She hadn't spent 100,000 yuan on living expenses before. Consider this money as a gift from your sister."
Don't you know how expensive things are around here? What can 20,000 yuan buy? Are you going to ask you for it again after he's used it all up? What will you do then? Give it to him or not?
"It would be better to give him 50,000 in one go. Even if we said that outside, no one would say we were being dishonest."
The uncle nodded and praised his wife profusely: "Wife, you are really amazing. You have thought of everything."
"Since you know how capable I am, you'll have to listen to me from now on. We've been married for so many years, would I ever harm you? You know I'm not the stingy kind of person. As long as it's not too outrageous, I'll handle things properly and beautifully for you. So, from now on, no matter how big or small the matter is, you should discuss it with me and not try to figure things out on your own."
Taking the opportunity, the aunt declared her dominance, stating that Yanling was in danger and she couldn't let the old man continue his cuddling ways with him.
If he can be so ruthless to Jiang Xin and An An, how could he treat his own family well? Keeping his distance is the only way to ensure safety.
Jiang Wei withdrew 50,000 yuan from the bank, took a taxi to the train station, and as soon as he got out of the car, he saw his nephew standing at the edge of the square.
My nephew looked much thinner and stood alone in the shadows, looking rather pitiful.
Thinking of his wife's instructions, Jiang Wei's heart hardened again. It wasn't that he didn't want to help his nephew, but that he couldn't.
I'm not a rich or powerful person, so what right do I have to help him? It would only drag my whole family into the fire.
He went up to his nephew and asked him to leave the station with him. They hailed a taxi on the roadside and asked the driver to take them to the business hall.
"Your phone is gone, right? Go to the service center to get a new phone number and then buy a new one. Take this money; your uncle isn't rich, so this is all I can give you. Don't mind."
After Jiang Wei finished speaking, he took out some money from his bag and placed it on Yan Ling's lap.
Yanling didn't look at him, but stared at the money on her lap, her voice devoid of any emotion: "Uncle, what do you mean by this?"
Jiang Wei had raised him as his own son for many years, so how could his feelings for his nephew simply disappear?
Hearing his question, Jiang Wei lowered his head sadly and said, "I can't help it. You should know that the old house was demolished, and your aunt and I are living at your sister's grandfather's house. It's really inconvenient for you to move in as well."
"So my uncle only gave me 50,000 yuan, and he's going to kick me out of the house?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wei looked up abruptly, staring at his nephew in disbelief. What did he mean by that? Did he think he hadn't given enough?
"You...I..."
Jiang Wei stammered and hesitated for a long time, but in the end, he still couldn't utter a single word of blame.
He used to value family ties, considering his nephew as one of his own. Plus, since his nephew had no father and no mother to love him, he felt especially sorry for him. For so many years, he sacrificed his wife and children, trying everything he could to be good to his nephew.
It turns out that his sincerity was all one-sided; he had been deluding himself. His wife was right; Yanling was an ungrateful wretch.
Jiang Wei said to the taxi driver, "Sir, stop the car up ahead."
Yanling knew his uncle was angry, but he didn't know what his uncle had to be angry about. As far as he knew, his uncle's family had received two apartments when the old house was demolished. Why couldn't he even give him one apartment?
You know, back when we lived in the old house, my uncle used to give Jiang Han his room to live in. How come he's become so stingy now?
Seeing him in trouble, not only did you not help him, but you also kicked him out of the house. Uncle, why have you changed too!
As soon as the car stopped, Jiang Wei hurriedly opened the door and got out, disappearing into the crowd in no time.
The driver asked, "Where are you going?"
Yanling glanced out the car window and said, "Go to the nearest XX Bank."
The driver saw him looking sullen through the rearview mirror and comforted him, saying, "Your uncle has already been very kind. Where are you going to find relatives who will give you money these days? Everyone's just minding their own business."
Yan Ling's lips curled into a mocking smile. He threw himself into the taxi. Was he alright?
The driver noticed the mocking expression on his face and sighed silently. These days, even paying for help can lead to mistakes.
I overheard their conversation. It seems this nephew has run into some trouble, and his uncle kindly offered to help him. But the man complained that the money wasn't enough, feeling that he should also get a share of the compensation from his uncle's house being demolished.
Is this person out of their mind? That's your uncle, not your father! Why should you have a share of someone else's property?!
The driver parked the car in front of the bank, gave the passenger change, and immediately picked up his phone to share the bizarre incident that had just happened in a group chat.
