After dinner, the couple once again swaggered out with their child in their arms. After all, they had just talked about selling the house yesterday, so they had to make a show of selling the house today.
Upon arriving in the East District, I noticed that the streets were much quieter. People who used to stroll around were now hurrying about, and there were many more people maintaining order. Although they weren't all wearing red armbands, they were all burly and menacing-looking. Even so, people were scared away.
The couple held their child as if they were watching a spectacle, moving slowly and leisurely, completely unlike everyone else.
Before they even reached the courtyard, someone stopped them and asked questions. Jian Dan looked completely innocent.
"My yard is over there. I had an appointment with someone today. What happened that prevents me from going?"
East District? Courtyard?
The foreman clearly knew something; he sized up the two men and quickly waved them through, but didn't forget to threaten them.
"Don't look around, don't ask unnecessary questions, just do what you're supposed to do, understand?"
Qin Qinghuai glanced at them coldly. The other person was obviously stunned for a moment. By the time they came to their senses, the two of them had already walked a distance away.
The henchman next to him seemed to want to get revenge.
"Big brother, they're so arrogant. They treat you like this. You wait, I'll go teach them a lesson."
The foreman frowned, stared intently for a moment, then, as if he had thought of something, stopped the man.
"Forget it, this isn't urgent. Let's not delay the important matters above."
Qin Qinghuai and his companion continued their leisurely conversation, pretending no one else was around.
"Brother Huai, do you think Fourth Brother would dare to go out with this?"
Qin Qinghuai also looked around seriously.
"It's hard to say. The main problem is that we didn't know it was like this here. Otherwise, we would have postponed the time. Fourth Brother is so timid. If he saw so many people, he might have been too scared to go out."
"What should I do? He won't go out, what am I supposed to do with this yard?"
We can't take it with us, and we can't come back, so are we just going to leave it here to collect dust?
I was hoping to sell this and get some money to buy food and fabric for the kids. It's hard to buy good things back there, so we wanted to save some nice things for our daughter before heading back. I'm already homesick.
"How about I ask someone else?"
"Or, if all else fails, why don't we just go find Fourth Brother? He's timid, but Eldest and Second Brothers aren't afraid. They've been eyeing this courtyard for a long time anyway. If they know there's such a good thing, they'll come even if it's raining knives!"
