Xia Baozhu walked into the house and took a look. The house was quite clean. Although it was not big, it could be seen that the owner was a very particular person.

"You haven't had dinner yet? I'll ask my mother-in-law to cook it for you later? My surname is Niu, so you can just call me Brother Niu!"

"Okay, thank you, Brother Niu."

The other party's movements were very quick, and after a while, he came over and called for dinner.

"We country people don't have much to eat...it's just these mushrooms from the mountains, don't dislike it...if you don't mind, can we eat them together?"

The other party's wife was also a middle-aged woman with a cheerful personality, a loud voice, and was quick at work. She smiled and asked if she wanted to eat together?

"Okay! Let's eat together and have fun!"

Huo Chengyu and Xia Baozhu were not hypocritical people, so they sat down happily.

During the dinner, Huo Chengyu also asked about Qiao Bo.

"Are you talking about Uncle Qiao's house? Well...don't mention it...it's really sad to talk about it! He is such a good person, but when he is getting old, he is being plotted by his nephew and his family. I really want to Just thinking about it makes people angry!”

"What do you mean by this? Wasn't he taken to the city by his son? And the people living in that house...are his nephew's family?"

Huo Chengyu was stunned when he heard this and asked a few questions quickly.

"Ahem! Where is it! His son had an accident a year ago and suddenly died... He couldn't bear it for a moment. He collapsed after attending the funeral for his son. Later, his nephew's family came to take care of him on the pretext of taking care of him. We moved in. At first, we thought he was lucky. His son was gone, but he still had a nephew who was filial to him. Unexpectedly, he didn’t really want to take care of him, but was looking at his property!

Only a few days later, they were kicked out and driven directly to the old house at the end of the village!We people in the village couldn't stand it, so we went over to argue with them. It turned out that the niece's mother-in-law seemed to be an official in the capital, so she wasn't afraid of us at all. She even took out a piece of paper, saying that it was signed by Qiao Bo himself and promised to give the house to them. Yes, no one else can care!Would you say it's irritating or not? "

Sister-in-law Niu spoke quickly, and in just a few words she finished what had happened in the past six months. In her words, she expressed her deep hatred for Qiao Qiao's nephew and his family who suddenly appeared.

"Infuriating! How could this be happening? So how is Job doing now?"

Not to mention people like Huo Chengyu who had gotten along with Uncle Qiao, even people like Xia Baozhu who had never met him were a little upset when they heard what happened to him.

"He lives alone in an old house at the end of the village! Unfortunately, he is seriously ill, and his nephew may have robbed him of his savings, so he can only make ends meet by growing some vegetables nearby."

Mrs. Niu sighed and said no more.

But even so, Xia Baozhu can also imagine that in a mountain village, losing a child in old age is the most painful thing in life, but he also encountered white-eyed relatives who occupied his property, leaving him homeless, which made the pain even more painful...

"Cheng Yu, we're going to have dinner later, why don't we go over and see Uncle Qiao?"

Xia Baozhu despised this kind of injustice and wanted to go and have a look.

"Well, that's what I originally planned. Uncle Qiao took great care of me before. Now that he's like this, I should go over and take a look."

"You two are kind-hearted, but...his nephew, niece and daughter-in-law are not easy to mess with, and they are very domineering! People in the village are not allowed to go to help Uncle Qiao. If anyone is seen, they will rush over to make trouble, so after a long time, Even if the village wants to help, they don’t dare to go openly and only dare to go secretly..."

"Why do they do that?!"

Xia Baozhu was angry!

How could someone be so overbearing and unreasonable? !

Kicking an old man out of his home is outrageous enough!

He actually wants to prevent the kind people in the village from going to the rescue. Isn't this a deliberate attempt to push the elderly into a dead end? !

"Isn't it just for the property? Speaking of which, although this house is occupied by them, after all, Qiao Bo is still there, so after all, it is unfair..."

Sister-in-law Niu sighed again, "I won't say it anymore... The more I talked about it, the angrier it became... My family had two fights with them because of this matter, and they were almost arrested and sent to the Shanxia Police Station! They are very tough backstage. , Don’t dare to provoke! Don’t dare to provoke!”

After what Mrs. Niu said, Huo Chengyu and Xia Baozhu frowned so tightly that they even lost their appetite for food.

After a few casual conversations, I asked for the address, and then went straight over with a lantern in hand.

The further you go, the harder the road becomes.

There are fewer and fewer houses on the roadside. They are all sparse and old houses that were abandoned in the past.

If it rains, it is estimated that the thatched roof that has been in disrepair will not be able to block the rain.

Fortunately, it hadn't rained in the past two days, otherwise Xia Baozhu couldn't imagine how Qiao Bo had to walk hard in such mud every day.

"It seems to be there!"

Xia Baozhu's sharp eyes suddenly saw the orange glimmer not far away.

"go!"

The two of them quickened their pace and walked quickly towards the direction of the old man.

The old man was bending over at the moment, as if he was eating. When he saw something moving outside, he subconsciously hid the black pottery in his hand behind his back, and looked outside with a wary face...

I'm afraid his arrogant nephew and niece are here again!

He looked outside the dark house and vaguely saw two figures, one tall and one short...

But the height and body shape are not like...

Just as he was wondering, a deep voice suddenly sounded, "Qiao Bo!"

The old man was stunned for a moment, stood up subconsciously, staggered a step outside, and wanted to get a closer look, but was held by the other party's hand.

"Uncle Qiao, it's me! Huo Chengyu!"

"Huo... why is it you?! Why are you here?!"

The old man was a little confused at first, but when he heard the other person's voice, he recognized it immediately. The vigilance in his eyes disappeared in an instant, and he held the other person's hand tightly with his backhand, and a smile appeared on his face.

"I brought my wife here to play, and I wanted to see you. Why do you live here?!"

Although Mrs. Niu has already told the whole story, Huo Chengyu is more accustomed to checking with the parties again in order to obtain a more true restoration.

"Your wife?! You already have a wife?! This one is right next to you...a perfect match, a really perfect match... Where is the little girl from? How old is she? What's her name?"

The old man's focus was attracted by the other party's "wife", and he happily asked about Xia Baozhu.

"Hello, Uncle Qiao. My name is Xia Baozhu. It's the eighteenth year of the Chinese New Year. I'm from Qinghe County, Southern Province."

Xia Baozhu was not pretentious and said hello generously.

"It's from Southern Province...so far away...this girl is so beautiful. Cheng Yu, you are really capable of finding such a good girl!"

Qiao Bo looked at the young couple in front of him and grinned from ear to ear.

Speaking of which, he hasn't been so happy for a long time since his son's death...
