"Beep beep beep!"
Upon hearing the loudspeaker outside, Ji Zhigang's expression changed.
"Who is it that keeps honking the horn in broad daylight?"
Yu Mobai glanced outside; he was the kind of person who allowed officials to set fires while forbidding ordinary people to even light lamps.
When he's driving, he keeps pressing the button if there's a car in front of him that isn't moving, and he gets annoyed if someone else presses the button.
"Maybe my car was parked in the wrong place and blocked other people's way."
Ji Zhigang awkwardly took out his car keys and tossed them to Yu Mobai, "Mobai, there's an open space at the east end of the village, could you help me park the car there?"
"A minor issue."
Yu Mobai didn't think about anything else and readily agreed.
Just before leaving, Ji Mushu took two kinds of fruit and followed her out, saying, "That place is right next to Grandma Wang's house. I'll go and see Grandma Wang too."
"Don't go to the wooden comb shop."
Ji Zhigang grabbed her arm.
"Why, Dad?"
Ji Mushu asked with a puzzled look, "I haven't been to Grandma Wang's house since I was a child. It's been so long."
Yu Mobai also turned to look at Ji Zhigang, feeling that something was off about him today.
"You wait here and come with me tonight."
Ji Zhigang made an excuse, "You should go now. It wouldn't be good if I didn't go. We're having guests coming over soon, so you should get ready."
"profound."
Ji Mushu pouted but didn't say much, and had no choice but to put down the fruit in her hand.
Yu Mobai didn't say anything, turned around and walked out of the courtyard.
A seven-seater SUV was parked behind Ji Zhigang's car.
Although the dirt roads in the countryside are relatively narrow, one of Ji Zhigang's car wheels had already rolled into the grass, while the other side was wide enough for a car to pass through.
He glanced back and waved to the SUV, indicating that it was okay to pass.
Unexpectedly, six people got out of the car the next moment. One of them, a middle-aged man, looked at a college student and was somewhat displeased. He turned around and said something, and a young man walked over.
"Holy crap, what's going on? A whole bunch of people got off the bus."
Yu Mobai was startled, especially when everyone in the car suddenly got out. What were they going to do? Fight.
"Are you here to pick us up?"
The young man walked up and asked loudly.
Who are you?
Yu Mobai frowned. He didn't know this person at all. Since the car could pass, he turned around and left.
"Don't go! Did you come to pick us up?"
The young man grabbed him and asked arrogantly.
Yu Mobai glanced at the group of people behind him, including men and women, as well as the young man in front of him who looked a little older than him.
Based on Ji Zhigang's attitude towards him just now, Yu Mobai quickly realized with his clever mind, could this be someone coming to collect a debt?
But this lineup doesn't seem right, and they didn't even ask for the debt collection address before asking someone to pick them up?
Doesn't a normal debt collection involve a large group of men coming to your door?
"Whether I am or not is none of your business."
Yu Mobai spoke in a very irritable tone, raising an eyebrow and asking in a roguish manner, "What do you want?"
"Hey, how can you talk like that?"
The young man glared and shouted, "You have no manners at all!"
"You have manners? Is this how your mother taught you to ask for directions?"
Yu Mobai chuckled, "Your father will teach you how to ask for directions again today."
"you..."
The young man, wearing glasses and appearing polite, might have wanted to swear, but couldn't quite bring himself to say it, so he could only say fiercely, "You just wait!"
"That's it?"
Yu Mobai watched him run back into the crowd to start complaining, then returned to the courtyard with a grin.
Why are you back?
Ji Zhigang was waiting for Yu Mobai to drive the car away, but he waited and waited and didn't see the car pass by the gate.
"I ran into an idiot."
Yu Mobai said with a smile, "There's such a big spot right next to it, you could even tie a dog up and walk through, but you had to get a whole carload of people off."
"Speak properly."
Ji Mushu rolled her eyes at his words and slapped him lightly, saying, "How dare you talk to my dad like that?"
"I'm used to it."
Yu Mobai responded with a grin, then snatched the rag from Ji Mushu's hand, "I'll wipe it."
"You didn't clean it carefully at all; there's still dust in that corner!"
Ji Mushu started nitpicking at the places Yu Mobai had cleaned, saying, "Can't you be a little more serious? Otherwise, I won't let you stay in my house."
"Isn't this very clean? Did you look at it with a microscope?"
Yu Mobai retorted, unconvinced.
"Try rubbing it with your finger; is there still a layer of dust?"
Ji Mushu snatched the rag and was about to demonstrate to him, "You can only clean it properly if you wipe it like this."
"I don't understand. Please wipe it again."
Yu Mobai said.
"How stupid, that's how it is."
Ji Mushu, with a stern face, moved to another spot to wipe, "Did you get it this time?"
"What do you mean, 'can't I'?"
Yu Mobai found a small stool and sat down, enjoying the cool air. "I clearly wiped it very clean. If you don't believe me, look for where I didn't wipe it clean."
Ji Mushu was stunned for a moment before she realized what was happening, then she threw the rag at him, "You scoundrel, you tricked me!"
Ji Zhigang silently watched the two of them playfully bickering right under his nose, his grip on the broom tightening.
The two of them seem to be almost ignoring his existence now. If they were alone together, that would be terrible.
"Why is it so noisy outside? People must have arrived."
