When Mrs. Wang heard Zhang Ying say this, her heart began to beat wildly. Their whole family depended on Wang Zhicheng for support. Now if Wang Zhicheng went bankrupt, what would they do?
She said to Zhang Ying, "What will happen if I don't pay the money?"
Zhang Ying replied, "We have to pay compensation even if we don't want to. The court will check our assets. If the balance in our account isn't enough, we'll have to use the factory, house, and other assets to pay off the debt."
Mrs. Wang thought quickly and said, "Then your debt won't affect the rest of our family, right? If you transfer the money and the house to me and your father, will they still come to take it? If they can't get the money, what can they do? They'll just have to accept their bad luck."
Zhang Ying was about to applaud this illiterate old scoundrel. She said, "If you don't pay me, Zhicheng and I will have to go to jail, and even then we'll have to pay more when we get out!"
Old Mrs. Wang said nonchalantly, "Several million, even a few more years in jail is worth it. If you can't pay the compensation when you get out, will they arrest you again? Just listen to me and transfer your property to us. You worked so hard to earn this much money, I will definitely keep it safe for you..."
Zhang Ying glanced at Wang Zhicheng, who was silent beside the receiver. His face was now as black as ash.
Zhang Ying was amused by the old lady's anger: "You said you would give us the property and let Zhicheng and I go to jail? Then who will take care of our children? Can you return the property to us when we get out?
Knowing you all, you should have passed these on to Wang Zhiwei and Wang Zhihui pretty quickly, right? If it weren't for the two of us working so hard to earn money to support you, you wouldn't even have seen my daughter and son, right?
You're such a calculating person. There's nothing more to say. Neither of us will go to jail. If we lose money, it's our own. We've come through hard times and we have the ability to make a comeback!"
Seeing that Zhang Ying was unmoved and had mercilessly exposed her intentions, Mrs. Wang angrily said, "I think you just don't know what's good for you. You don't have the final say in this matter. I'm going to find Zhicheng, he's the head of the family..."
Zhang Ying said, "You're looking for him? He's gone out to avoid his debts, leaving me alone to deal with the mess. What I say now counts, don't think of cheating us at this time.
If you push me too far, I will sue to get back all the houses I bought for Wang Zhiwei and Wang Zhihui. Together with these properties, I will have just enough to compensate others."
Old Lady Wang said anxiously, "How dare you! That house belongs to them. Your names aren't on it. Can you just take it away if you want?"
Zhang Ying said sternly, "We'll know if we can leave after we try. All payments were made from Zhicheng's account. This is the evidence that we paid for the house. I'm going to the court now. Let your daughter and youngest son wait for the court summons!"
When we were rich, you all sucked our blood. Now that we're in trouble, shouldn't you also pay a little?"
Old Lady Wang thought that Wang Zhicheng and his wife would soon become paupers and might even drag down the Wang family with debts. She had no scruples when facing Zhang Ying and revealed a rogue face: "Want to take the house back? You have to kill me first!
Ask Wang Zhicheng if he dares to do this? Being unfilial to his parents is a serious act of treason. He will be struck by lightning, and even his children will suffer the consequences…”
"You old bastard, shut up! Your youngest son and your daughter have never been filial to you. They are the ones who deserve to be struck by lightning. The retribution will definitely be inflicted on their children!" Zhang Ying roared into the receiver.
When Mrs. Wang heard Zhang Ying cursing her children and grandchildren, she was so angry that she was about to start cursing into the receiver, but Zhang Ying suddenly hung up the phone. The anger stuck in her chest and it took her a long time to calm down.
Zhang Ying looked at Wang Zhicheng with a half-smile and said, "See? This is your good mother, shameless old woman, scolding you and saying such vicious words to her children. If I let her enjoy her old age, I won't be named Zhang! Don't blame me for being too harsh on them when the time comes. They were the ones who provoked me first..."
Wang Zhicheng replied with a sullen face, "Alright, stop insulting me. Suing to get the house back is too easy for them. Wang Zhiwei is in dire straits with his gambling debts. I'll have those people add fuel to the fire..."
————
On the other hand, Wang Zhiwei felt unwilling to accept losing money, but was afraid that he would lose more if he continued to play.
When his poker buddy invited him to play, he was a little hesitant about whether to continue. His friend provoked him, "Wang Zhiwei, are you afraid and don't dare to play anymore? Winning and losing at the gambling table is a common occurrence. Is that all you can do?"
Forget it, just because you are such a coward, you'd better not play with us. Don't tell anyone you know us when you go out. I can't afford to lose face. And your brother is a big boss, what a boast..."
Wang Zhiwei couldn't stand being called useless and cowardly, so he immediately fell for it: "Who are you calling cowardly? Do you think I'm afraid of you? Just wait, I'm going now..."
Soon, Wang Zhiwei found himself playing poker with a few friends again. He'd been lucky in the previous few rounds, winning some money and feeling incredibly lucky. When the losing friends wanted to leave, he grabbed them and refused to let them go, insisting they keep playing for three days and three nights.
Soon, his bad luck returned. It was a losing streak. Wang Zhiwei was so consumed by his losses that he refused to let anyone leave the table. He just couldn't believe it. Was it really so unbelievable that he couldn't win even once?
Those card-playing friends understood the psychology of gamblers very well. When Wang Zhiwei lost his will after losing, they fed him another card at the right time, making Wang Zhiwei feel that he was able to do it again.
A group of people played at the gambling table from morning to dark, and had takeout delivered by the restaurant for meals.
At the end of the day, Wang Zhiwei owed another 80,000 yuan in gambling debts. Adding the previous gambling debts, he now owed 150,000 yuan.
Wang Zhiwei returned home looking dusty and grimy, when he received a call from Old Lady Wang. In fact, his mother had called him during the day, but he was so engrossed in gambling at the time that he didn't have the heart to listen to his mother's nagging and just hung up.
When he answered the phone again, he learned that Wang Zhicheng and his wife were about to go bankrupt. Not only could they not come up with money to help him pay off his gambling debts, they also wanted to sue him to take back the house.
He suddenly became furious: "Mom, you have to help me. You can't just watch me die! Do you have any money? Give it to me first. If I can't pay it back, I'm really dead.
Yes, yes, yes, and Wang Zhicheng and Zhang Ying, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, take a look at their house to see if there are any valuables, take them out first. Otherwise, when someone comes to take possession of the house, those things will be sold to others…”
Old Lady Wang thought what Wang Zhiwei said made sense, so she immediately started searching the villa, and the bedroom of Wang Zhicheng and his wife became her main target.
Finally, Mrs. Wang robbed Zhang Ying's jewelry box of all its jewels. She also found a safe, but since she couldn't open it, she asked Wang Zhiwei to go directly to her house and take away the jewels.
