Chapter 148: The Doghouse Taken Away
Xu Youyou peeked in from the door, looking at the mess in the house, mostly boxes stacked on top of each other, and couldn't figure out what was worth picking up here.
But this middle-aged couple was still making trouble. They saw that Xu Youyou was dressed like a rich man and looked young, so they took the opportunity to blackmail her.
Xu Youyou was annoyed and said in a cold voice: "If you really want to cheat like this, I will call my lawyer over now and let her argue with you slowly."
At the same time, Xu Youyou's four bodyguards took a few steps forward and stood in front of Xu Youyou.
The tall bodyguard looked murderous, and just two steps closer made the couple unable to help but become frightened.
The middle-aged man did not expect Xu Youyou to be so tough. Seeing that he failed to extort money, he rolled his eyes and said, "Since you came here with my father's dog, you are also a friend of the family. My father is gone, you should also show some appreciation..."
The policeman and Aunt Wang, who works in the community, were all so angry that they laughed.
Aunt Wang frowned and said, "Are you asking for a share of the money or are you blackmailing me? Your father has worked hard for you all his life. If you have any conscience, you wouldn't do such a thing!"
"Auntie Wang, you can't say such things in front of the police. I'm not blackmailing you! Everyone who comes is a guest. It's fate. Maybe this lady is willing to buy peace of mind." The middle-aged man refused to admit to blackmail.
Aunt Wang stopped Xu Youyou and said, "Don't listen to his nonsense. He is just a scoundrel."
"The old man is so pitiful. He lent his house to his grandson to get married, and was driven to live in this shanty house. He has been lying in bed for several days. His son lives so close, but he never thought of visiting him. Now he runs out and pretends to be a filial son and grandson! Bah!"
The middle-aged man was accused of being unfilial, but he didn't look embarrassed at all. Instead, he said with a sad face: "I have my own difficulties. My father had a hard life. He was classified as a bad element in the early years. He finally survived, but he became crazy again. He studies those crap all day long. If he was a little smarter, he could have stayed in the university and become a professor."
"If he had been a university professor like the other uncles, would I have ended up in such a miserable situation? Even now, I, as his son, want to give him a grand funeral, but you guys are bullying me like this..."
Aunt Wang listened to this complaint, not only did she not waver at all, but her face was full of disgust. She pulled Xu Youyou's sleeve and said, "Girl, listen to your aunt. Don't pay attention to his nonsense. You don't even know this family, why should you give a share of money? Just take your people and leave now."
The middle-aged man suddenly became anxious. He wanted to stop it but had no right to do so, for fear that he would lose out on his share of the money.
But what was unexpected was that Xu Youyou suddenly said: "Since your dog and my dog are friends, when encountering this kind of thing, I will just treat it as losing money to avoid disaster."
The police and Aunt Wang were all stunned.
The middle-aged man opened his mobile phone at the speed of light and showed the payment code, his movements were smooth and fluid.
"Four hundred yuan has been credited to my WeChat account!"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man said with a shameless face: "In fact, the share money here is usually thousands of yuan."
Aunt Wang couldn't stand it any longer: "I advise you to quit while you're ahead!"
The policeman frowned and said, "Enough is enough."
The middle-aged man could only reluctantly put away his phone.
The little black dog suddenly started barking and growling at the man, as if threatening him or angry with him: "Woof woof! Bad guy! You won't give your master food!"
The middle-aged man raised his foot and wanted to kick him: "You little bastard, my father has no food to eat but still cares about raising you. I get angry when I see you, and I will stew you into dog meat soup later."
His kick was stopped by Xu Youyou's bodyguard, but the little black dog was still scared and hid behind Xu Youyou.
This couple didn't even care about their own father, so Xu Youyou naturally felt uneasy leaving the little black dog to them.
"I want to take this dog away." Xu Youyou said.
The middle-aged man immediately changed his expression: "This is my father's favorite puppy. He values it as much as his life. I won't sell it for less than 10,000!"
The middle-aged man saw that Xu Youyou was willing to pay even for the share of the donation for the elderly stranger, and thought that although she looked difficult to talk to, she was actually a soft-hearted person, so she dared to ask for such a high price.
Xu Youyou naturally understood his thoughts and was unwilling to give such a bastard too much money, so she said, "One thousand yuan."
Aunt Wang was so anxious that she jumped up and down: "Little girl, don't be fooled by him. He will sell a puppy like this for a hundred yuan! Maybe he will sell it for fifty!"
The middle-aged man was afraid that his road to wealth would be blocked, so he hurriedly said, "Auntie Wang, please don't talk nonsense! I won't sell it for 100 yuan! At least 10,000 yuan, this is the most precious legacy my father left me!"
Xu Youyou frowned slightly, not willing to indulge him, and said directly: "Since you are unwilling to sell it for one thousand yuan, forget it."
The middle-aged man saw that the money he had just earned was about to fly away, so he didn't dare to be hypocritical anymore and said, "Sell, sell, sell! We agreed on a thousand dollars, you can't regret it!"
Although he felt sorry that Xu Youyou didn't fall for the offer of 10,000 yuan, he knew in his heart that he was lucky to sell it for 1,000 yuan. He took out his mobile phone again on the spot, opened the payment code, and looked at Xu Youyou with expectation.
Xu Youyou was not in a hurry to pay, but squatted down and touched the little black dog's head, and asked gently: "Little black dog, do you want to go in and accompany your master again?"
The little black dog's dark eyes were full of tears, and it purred obediently: "Woof woof, thank you."
Xu Youyou brought the little black dog into the messy shack.
The little black dog lay close to his owner's bed, barking softly one after another.
"Woof woof! Master, they said you were dead, is that true? Were you really not sleeping? The master of the Blade King wanted to take me away, saying that if I stayed, I would become dog meat. Master, will your children sell all these books in your room? These are your favorite treasures..."
Xu Youyou felt a little sad after hearing this. Although the old man was a little crazy, his love for the little black dog was sincere.
The old man must have realized that he was about to reach the end of his life, so he locked the little black dog outside the door.
There was no food left in the house, and the little black dog was outside. Even if he couldn't meet his next owner, he could survive by rummaging through the trash cans.
Xu Youyou glanced around the room and found that most of the things in the cardboard boxes were newspapers and old books.
Inadvertently, her sight met the system's golden pointer.
Only then did she notice that the place indicated by the system was a wooden box. The wooden box was placed flat on the ground with a small quilt inside, which looked warm. There was also a simple sketch of a puppy drawn with chalk on the top of the wooden box.
Xu Youyou guessed that this should be the little black dog's kennel.
The middle-aged man was not idle either. He chased into the house, wishing he could shove the payment code into Xu Youyou's eyes and frantically prompt Xu Youyou to pay.
Xu Youyou pretended to be casual and said, "I have to take the doghouse away."
