Chapter 587 You are a good thief
He Jingyi and Wei Xiuru did not move, and they were still stubborn with the old man.
They had saved up their wealth for half a lifetime, so they were not willing to give it away like this.
He Jingyi knew that the old man was determined and could not change him, so he turned his anger to Jiang Yu.
"I am He Tingyue's father after all. What good will it do you to confront me?"
Jiang Yu shrugged, "From the current point of view, there is no harm, right? Don't you understand the principle of returning the property to its original owner? Why do you act as if we are robbers?"
Wei Xiuru's eyes were red with anger, and she hated her to the bone.
"You are a robber! Even if it is Wei Baiyun's dowry, so what? Once it goes into my pocket, it is mine. What qualifications do you have to take it back?"
Moreover, the part she kept had been taken back by Jiang Yu a long time ago.
Jiang Yu snorted and laughed, "Just because your son is still in my hands, just because you don't return these things, your son will have to pay the price for what he did."
She yawned lazily and pulled He Tingyue's sleeve.
"Since we can't talk it out, forget it. Anyway, it's not my son who is going to labor reform."
He Tingyue pretended to pull her up.
Wei Xiuru was indeed anxious: "Wait!"
She gritted her teeth and grabbed He Jingyi's hand and begged.
"Jingyi, why don't you take out the passbook?"
She also had a passbook, but there was not much money in it.
She had no income, and He Jingyi's salary was not in her hands, and she had not been able to save any money in these years.
For He Dongqi, He Jingyi thought again and again, and had to take out his savings.
For so many years, he had been living and eating at home, and did not have much expenses in life. He
saved more than 6,000 yuan!
Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
"Aunt Xu, do you have paper and pen?"
Aunt Xu hurriedly said, "Yes."
She took out a notebook for Jiang Yu to keep accounts, "Do you want to write something?"
Jiang Yu said frankly, "I'll calculate whether this money is enough to pay back my mother-in-law's dowry."
"This is not enough, you might as well rob it!" He Jingyi was furious.
This is all his savings!
Jiang Yu sighed, "Comrade He Jingyi, don't you have an idea of how much dowry my mother-in-law left behind?"
He Jingyi choked. Of course he knew, but Jiang Yu didn't know.
He couldn't help but glance at He Tingyue. Could it be that He Tingyue still remembered? He
was wavering in his heart. Seeing Jiang Yu counted seriously, he really thought that He Tingyue had the list.
In fact, it was not He Tingyue who remembered. Jiang Yu just roughly counted the things he had snatched from Zhong Yue last time.
He Jingyi would not even let Wei Xiuru keep his salary, so the things he gave her to keep must be few.
Jiang Yu multiplied all the numbers by five.
The number he got later was more than 30,000.
Jiang Yu looked up at him, "I'm being kind this time, so I won't let you pay back 30,000. Let's say 15,000,
you still need 9,000." He Jingyi snorted, "I don't have any money, just this 6,000, take it or leave it!"
Jiang Yu's abacus clattered, "I know you don't have 9,000, so I allow you to pay it back in installments. 100 a month, 1,200 a year, you only need less than eight years to pay it back, are you happy?"
"Dream on!" Wei Xiuru shouted.
Jiang Yu's smile faded a little, and he slammed the notebook down.
"Looks like there's no room for negotiation, let's go."
The old man sighed, "Jiang Yu..."
"Old man, since ancient times, there has never been a thief who is so righteous! The things my mother-in-law left behind were for her two children, how could they end up in the pockets of these two bastards?" "
You stole people, stole homes, and even stole dowries. You are a very competent thief."
These words were too disrespectful, even the old man's face felt hot.
Although the words were rough, they made sense.
He Jingyi and Wei Xiuru were indeed shameless.
"Just do as you say, pay back the money every month, and his pension will be allocated to you until the 9,000 yuan is paid back!"
Wei Xiuru shouted in shock: "Grandpa! This money has been given to Jiang Yu, what should we do?"
The old man glared at her and said unhappily: "What do you say we should do? This is your own fault! You eat and live at home, what do you need to spend money on?"
He decided on the matter and asked Jiang Yu to write an agreement, and he signed it as a witness.
"He Jingyi, sign!"
He Jingyi was reluctant and almost forced to sign his name, and he took on a huge debt.
Wei Xiuru was disheartened, and her veins were bulging with anger, and her palms were almost broken by being pinched.
"Now, you can let Dongqi go, right?"
Jiang Yu laughed, "Of course, wait until he leaves the army, keep a close eye on him in the future, and don't let him out to bite people."
Wei Xiuru stared and questioned, "What do you mean by leaving the army? My son has a bright future, why should he leave the army!"
Jiang Yu sneered, "You don't think that the army will keep him after he did such a thing, do you? This is a character flaw. The army is the most strict in disciplinary and style reviews, how can they let him stay?"
She stood up leisurely and put away the agreement.
"Comrade Wei Xiuru, you should be thankful that I, as a man, have a sense of dignity and did not make a big deal about your affair with He Jingyi. If it had been exposed, you two would have suffered a lot!"
Especially since He Jingyi was still a member of the army at the time, the charge of having an affair between a man and a woman was enough to punish him.
But He Tingyue and Wei Baiyun behaved very decently, divorcing quietly and leaving quietly without publicizing this scandal.
If it had been Jiang Yu, who was so fierce, he would have fought to the death with them.
"Grandpa, this is the bottom line I can accept. He Dongqi must withdraw from the army. It's good enough that he didn't go to labor reform. Otherwise, you just wait, I will kill him sooner or later." The old
man looked gloomy, covering his eyes and sighing.
"I know, you go back."
Jiang Yu hooked He Tingyue's hand and smiled.
"Let's go."
He Tingyue hummed and looked at the old man.
"Grandpa, I'll come to see you next time."
The old man snorted, "Go away, just say this kind of polite words to others, and forget about grandpa's stuff when you have a wife!"
Jiang Yu: "..." Isn't this the rhetoric that only mothers-in-law should have?
As soon as the two walked out of He's house, Wei Xiuru chased them out.
"Jiang Yu! I beg you, I will never go against you again, just let my son go, just this time!" No matter
how bad Wei Xiuru is, at least at this moment she is not pretending to be a mother to He Dongqi.
Looking at her pleading look, Jiang Yu's eyes were calm, without a trace of sympathy.
"Do you know what I was thinking when Zhang Shen rushed over?"
Wei Xiuru was stunned for a long time, and couldn't remember who "Zhang Shen" was for a while.
Jiang Yu pursed her lips, "I even thought about my own funeral."
"My chance was given to me by my man, not by He Dongqi. So why should I give your son a chance?"
Jiang Yu took He Tingyue's hand and walked forward. When she reached the door, she suddenly stopped.
She turned around and chuckled.
"Back then, He Tingyue chose to retire because of Feiyan. How did you feel? Both of them left the army, but he left much more respectably than your son."
Wei Xiuru thought absentmindedly. How did she feel?
Of course she was happy, especially happy.
She felt at that time that she was better than Wei Baiyun in one aspect.
Thinking about it now, it seems like a dream.
Wei Xiuru didn't know how long she had been standing in the yard. The sun was shining brightly, but she felt cold all over.
After living in the He family for so many years, what did she get?
Not long after, He Jundao walked in from outside.
Seeing her confused look, he paused.
"Xiu...sister-in-law, what's wrong?"
Wei Xiuru bit her hand and sobbed.
"It's me who harmed Dongqi! If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have thought of making things difficult for Jiang Yu."
It was all because she pushed He Dongqi too hard.
He Jundao raised his hand and placed it on her shoulder, patting it gently.
But Wei Xiuru took the opportunity to hug him and cried on his shoulder.
He Jundao's body stiffened, and he subconsciously wanted to push her away, but he couldn't bear it.
"Xiuru, what happened? Tell me clearly."
Wei Xiuru stopped crying, and suddenly looked up at him with a sad expression.
"Jundao, Dongqi is you...you must help him!"
