Chapter 4

In the morning of Shu City, Toronto is the beginning of the carnival at night.

Youqin's social software kept sending several photos, showing a few handsome men drinking and celebrating in a bar.

[Crossing the ocean to see you]: Lao You, it's a pity that you're not here.

[44]: The Raptors won the first place in the Eastern Conference!

[Mr.]: Old B's tavern gives free wine!

Youqin took a look at the photos of the people holding Muskoka's CreamAle in their hands and on the table. This is also Youqin's favorite beer when watching the game.

Youqin doesn't have many friends in China. He went abroad since he was a child, and he hardly has his own network of contacts in the country. Promising his grandfather to come back means giving up his independent life abroad.

You Qin chatted with his friends about the game for a while, and planned to watch the replay of the game later. He took over a branch company just after returning to China—even if it was a test product that his second uncle was playing with, he planned to face it well.

Youqin is an MBA graduate, and international relations, behavioral psychology, etc. are also within his elective scope. In addition, he is also fluent in four languages, and two are learning Klingon and Latin—of course, this is purely a hobby up.

Youqin carefully read the company information sent to him by his second uncle, and then checked the domestic home furnishing apps for a while. After spending a whole morning, Youqin already had a rough idea of ​​the company's development direction in his mind.

Aunt Zhang came over at noon, and she brought home-made pork rib soup with mung beans, wax gourd and yam in it. As soon as the lid of the thermos was opened, the strong smell of meat wafted out.

"The stewed mung beans are very rotten, and the wax gourd is also very soft." Aunt Zhang scooped part of the soup in the thermos into a bowl, and put the rest in a large soup bowl, and prepared to cover it after cooling down. Cling film and put in the refrigerator.

After finishing this, Aunt Zhang quickly peeled the fruit, cut it into small pieces, put them on toothpicks, put them in a small glass bowl, and served them to Youqin together with the pork rib soup.

After Youqin took two sips of soup, Aunt Zhang said embarrassedly: "Yesterday I left without clearing the bowl...Did Sister Xin say anything?"

"I didn't tell my mother," You Qin sipped the soup, motioned for Aunt Zhang to sit on the chair opposite, and said, "I've cleaned up the kitchen, so you don't have to worry about it."

"How can you not care?" Aunt Zhang apologized in a low voice, and said after a while, "Master You, yesterday my family received a threatening letter again. The other party seemed to know that I worked for a wealthy family, thought I was rich, and asked me to pay for medical treatment. fee……"

Youqin heard Aunt Zhang's tone yesterday, and knew that Aunt Zhang must be asking for help from him, but Aunt Zhang is thin-skinned, and she has a strong self-esteem after being with his mother for many years, and she is not someone who can easily bow her head.Aunt Zhang couldn't be troubled by other things. Only the family affairs of the Zhang family can make Aunt Zhang feel overwhelmed.

This must have happened more than once. You Qin guessed that Aunt Zhang knew her mother's temperament, so she didn't dare to ask her for help. She came back at a critical time. She deliberately talked about family affairs yesterday, and she must be talking about it.

You Qin didn't think it mattered, Aunt Zhang was closer to him than a family member, and he also knew a little about the Zhang family's messy affairs, if there was anything he could help, he would help.

You Qin finished the soup, put down the bowl, licked his lips and said, "Is it really just about fighting?"

Aunt Zhang pursed her lips, her face was ugly.

You Qin sighed: "I said before, you are my sister, you have been for the rest of your life. If you have any difficulties, you have to tell me clearly, otherwise how can I help you?"

Aunt Zhang sighed after a while, and briefly explained the matter.

It turned out that he was Aunt Zhang's younger brother at first. Zhang Duo met a fellow villager who was also working hard in Shu City by chance. Children of about the same age.

Because they are from the same hometown, the two quickly became acquainted. It didn't take long for Zhang Duo to be fooled by the other party and started gambling in the underground casino. He lost [-] yuan one after another. Zhang Duo, who had no money, told Aunt Zhang's contact information The other party, helpless, Aunt Zhang repaid the money for his younger brother. Although Zhang Duo wrote an IOU to his sister, he never repaid the money, let alone take it seriously. It was convenient to find Aunt Zhang again.

"Gambling, how did you come across it?" Aunt Zhang's eyes were red, "I'll tell Zhang Duo after I pay another [-], and I won't help him pay it back no matter how much he owes. After that, Zhang Duo I lived in peace for half a year, but for some reason, I suddenly said that there was a poverty alleviation policy in my hometown, and the government allocated houses to live in. I thought to myself, where is such a good thing? But Zhang Duo packed his bags immediately I went back to my hometown with my siblings."

Aunt Zhang sighed: "Sure enough, our family's conditions are not within the scope of assistance, and I don't know what Zhang Duo is thinking. He is going to sell his parents' house, and he has also taken his father's chronic medicine list, and he is going to petition others. .”

You Qin tapped on the edge of the bowl: "Your brother owes money again, right?"

Aunt Zhang pursed her lips and nodded: "After a few days of trouble with his petition, the man surnamed Lu contacted me again, saying that Zhang Duo owed him 38 yuan. I have subsidized Zhang Duo's family, taken care of his parents, and Where can I save any money for my nephew to solve the problem of going to school? I dare not tell Sister Xin about this, her temper... If she finds out, she will definitely call the police. "

Aunt Zhang said guiltily: "I know it's wrong, but my parents are getting old, I... If I call the police, what should I do if Zhang Duo makes my parents angry and sick?"

You Qin frowned, but he didn't criticize Aunt Zhang's opinion of a woman. I have my own hurdles, no one is nobler than the other, and I have no right to criticize the other's way of life. You Qin just said: "Sister Zhang, are you Want to borrow money?"

"No, no." Aunt Zhang immediately shook her head, "How dare I have such an idea, I dare not involve you in my family affairs. It's just..."

Speaking of this, Aunt Zhang closed her eyes, her face paled: "It's just that my nephew got into a fight with that kid surnamed Lu for some reason, which gave the other party a handle, and even Zhang Duo's debts increased. For medical expenses, they opened their mouths and asked me for 300 million."

You Qin was amused: "I'm not afraid of choking them to death."

Aunt Zhang said: "Of course I won't. I paid all the medical expenses for the child's examination at that time. How much should be the follow-up compensation? I know the child's situation. It's about 1000 yuan more. Besides, my nephew My son was hurt too..."

"But this family is dependent on me. They send me threatening letters every now and then. Zhang Duo...my younger brother also said that if something happens to the Zhang family's children, I can't afford it. He and my siblings are not here. The children There is only me by my side, if something really happens at this time, I..."

You Qin probably understood: "Yesterday you said about the person in the house, and it has something to do with the Lu family?"

Aunt Zhang nodded.

You Qin stretched out his hand: "Okay, I don't care about your family affairs, I'll help you talk to that family member, how to solve this matter. Give me the phone number of that family member."

This is what Aunt Zhang wants. She is a woman, and there is nothing she can do to deal with such a shameless person, not to mention that Zhang Duo is probably involved behind it-although she is her own younger brother, Aunt Zhang can't help suspecting that the younger brother and that The person surnamed Lu probably belonged to a gang, in order to get money from himself.

Aunt Zhang didn't dare to act rashly, let alone call the police. She was tortured by this incident for more than half a month, but fortunately, the young master came back.

With You Qin's promise, Aunt Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, and her complexion improved a lot.

Aunt Zhang immediately gave You Qin the phone number, but You Qin didn't contact him immediately after accepting it, she just said: "You don't need to worry about this matter, and I advise you to change the number, don't be affected by that family for the time being. "

Aunt Zhang sighed, thanked You Qin again and again, and then left.

After dinner, Aunt Zhang went to pick up the child from school as usual. Mo Xin came back early today, and after Aunt Zhang left, she crossed her legs and looked at her son with her arms crossed.

"Your sister Zhang told you the matter?"

You Qin had already guessed that there was nothing that could hide Ms. Mo from her nose, so he was not surprised when he heard that, and sold out Aunt Zhang on the spot.

Mo Xin was not angry when she heard the words, she just said: "It's similar to what I found out."

You Qin raised his eyebrows.

Mo Xin squinted at her son: "How many years has she been with me? I still don't know her? In the past half a year, her brows have almost frowned into a picture of mountains and rivers. A little water can store a river. The only thing that can make her The embarrassing thing is the Zhang family's business, why not investigate?"

You Qin laughed and said, "What are you going to do?"

"If she doesn't look for me, I'll pretend I don't know about it." Mo Xin shook her head, "I'm too lazy to worry about what you're going to do."

After Mo Xin finished speaking, she changed the subject: "Do you know about the fire in the old vegetable market?"

"Huh?" The topic changed so quickly that You Qin didn't react.

"It is said that there is also an underground casino hidden in a sausage shop at the east gate." Mo Xin had a deep meaning, "I heard that the person in charge of the casino is surnamed Lu."

You Qin was stunned for a moment, then looked at his mother in disbelief: "Yes, beautiful woman."

You Qin slightly bent his index finger and tapped on the table: "Is the investigation deep enough?"
