Chapter 69 Make It Clear
Chen Wenjun's eyes sparkled with tears. He looked at Liu Yaya, who was smiling brightly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise. "And Yaya, you don't have to worry about her being abused by the Liu family in this life."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
When Lin Qingxiang and his son came to continue working, they were surprised to find that there was a flat dirt road in Nanyu, and they were very happy.
You have to know that they have to walk back and forth on this road to do their work. It was full of potholes before, and they sprained their ankles many times. It was not convenient to push the cart. Now it is much simpler and they can keep up with the speed.
With this joy, everyone worked more enthusiastically.
Chen Wenjun explained some things to Lin Qingxiang and then went out.
As soon as we rowed to the port, we met Chen Yongding's fishing boat.
This time Chen Yongding didn't call him. Instead, he pulled the boat over, threw away the bamboo pole, and jumped onto Chen Wenjun's boat, looking serious. "Did you know that Zheng Aqiang's legs were broken?"
Chen Wenjun shook his head honestly.
Chen Yongding immediately became anxious. “That useless piece of shit is now telling everyone that you’ve hurt him so badly, and he wants you to support him for the rest of his life, and he wants everyone to seek justice for him. Since it has nothing to do with you, then quickly explain it to everyone.”
Chen Wenjun's face darkened, he nodded, turned around and followed Chen Yongding towards the port.
Early in the morning, there were still many boat people who had not left. When they saw Chen Wenjun coming, they all went to their own decks to watch the fun.
Chen Wenjun and Chen Yongding boarded Zheng Aqiang's boat together.
Chen Yongding shouted angrily: "Aqiang, I have found Wenjun. If you have anything to say, please speak to him face to face."
"What are you talking about! It was Chen Wenjun who harmed me so badly! He must be held responsible!" Zheng Aqiang's angry voice came from the cabin, but there was no movement.
Everyone looked at Chen Wenjun.
Chen Wenjun sneered twice, "You owed Gao Lei 500 yuan, and you fabricated an IOU saying I owed you money to fool him, and even said I owed you 1,000 yuan. Gao Lei found out and you ended up like this. You deserve it!"
"What? Five hundred yuan? Is he crazy? He actually owes so much money?" Zhou Shuifang came out of her cabin in shock. Even Grandpa Chen, who usually didn't meddle in other people's business, showed up.
"Wenjun, you said he fabricated the IOU and asked you to pay off his debts?" Grandpa Chen looked serious.
Being a compulsive gambler is one thing, but framing others is another.
"No, I didn't! He lied to you!" Zheng Aqiang was very excited, but he only dared to hide in the cabin and shout.
Chen Wenjun looked calm, "Gao Lei brought people to trouble me and asked me to hand over a thousand yuan. The IOU was in front of me. He wanted to confront me. I wrote my name in front of him, but the handwriting didn't match at all. Gao Lei took me to find Zheng Aqiang.
He confessed before anyone even asked him, and begged me to help him again. Grandpa, you know I bought the land and built the house, and any spare money I had was spent on materials. The house should be built for a while, so how could I have the money to help him? Not to mention that it was a gambling debt of 500 yuan.
I didn't agree, so he called me heartless and ungrateful. Another thing is that ever since he came to me to borrow money and failed, he has been eyeing my house. Recently, he has repeatedly taken advantage of the fact that no one was on my boat and knocked on the door to steal things. I set a trap and he injured his eyes, so he stopped now."
"Hiss!" Everyone widened their eyes in shock and started to criticize Zheng Aqiang.
Grandpa Chen didn't expect Zheng Aqiang to do so many bad things. He was so angry that his chest heaved violently and he cursed, "No wonder your parents and brothers don't want you. Even your wife ran away with the child! You deserve it! Why didn't Gao Lei just beat you to death and let us live in peace!"
What the Tanka people fear most is that their own people steal from their own people. In the past, if they were caught, they would be severely beaten. However, Zheng Aqiang not only stole, but he did it several times.
After Grandpa Chen finished scolding Zheng Aqiang, he turned around and started to scold Chen Wenjun, "You are so powerful now. You bought land and built a house, and you didn't even tell anyone that your house was robbed. What if Zheng Aqiang fails to rob your house and robs someone else's? Can you prevent others from doing the same?"
Chen Wenjun's face was not very good either, "Grandpa, I don't want to completely fall out with him. Besides, I didn't know it was him who stole things from my house the first time. The second time was because I found bloodstains, and Aqiang's wife came to borrow money, so I guessed it.
I thought he would learn his lesson and not mess around again, but who knew he would change from stealing to robbing? If I had known he had become so corrupt, I would have made a big fuss no matter what I said. "
Only then did everyone remember the relationship between Chen Wenjun and Zheng Aqiang. If these things had not happened, the two of them would be almost like real brothers, so it is understandable that Chen Wenjun concealed the matter for Zheng Aqiang.
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Chen's expression eased a lot, and then he frowned and asked, "What should we do now? His parents, brothers, wife, and children have all run away, and his legs are broken. How will he live in the future?"
No matter how angry or hateful he was, Grandpa Chen really couldn't just stand by and watch the person die.
Chen Wenjun knew what Grandpa Chen meant, and immediately lowered his eyes and said indifferently, "Grandpa, Zheng Aqiang knocked me unconscious in the alley with a club in order to get money from me, and robbed me of the dozens of dollars I worked so hard to earn. He also threatened Ping An and asked Ping An to say good things about him in front of me. If Ping An hadn't confessed to me, I would have thought that Ping An really liked his Uncle Aqiang.
This is such a bastard who bullied me and my son. I also lent him so much money. After adding and subtracting over the years, it has totaled more than a hundred yuan. I don't plan to ask him for the money, but I will not care about his life or death in the future.
If nothing else, I'll leave first, I have to hurry to sell fish!"
Everyone watched Chen Wenjun leave resolutely and were unable to react for a while. In their impression, Chen Wenjun was a taciturn, good-natured man with little presence. When did an honest man become so tough?
Since Chen Wenjun doesn't care, it's even more unlikely that they will.
When they saw that there was nothing exciting to watch, they quickly rowed their boats out of the harbor.
Chen Yongding saw that everyone had left and wanted to leave too, "Dad, I'm going to go boating."
Grandpa Chen stood on the deck for a long time in silence.
After the ship left the port, Zhou Shuifang muttered, "Wenjun used to have such a good relationship with Aqiang. I thought he would lend a hand no matter what happened, but he left so abruptly! It seems that he has really changed his personality and is more cruel than before."
Grandpa Chen sighed and shook his head. "Ping An is Wen Jun's life. If it weren't for Ping An, his life wouldn't be so hard. Ah Qiang did something good but actually threatened Ping An and let Wen Jun know about it. It would be strange if Wen Jun could forgive him!
Hey! Yongding and I have to keep sailing, and you have a lot of things to do, so no one can take care of him. He will probably starve to death if he keeps doing this."
