Sourness

Lin Boyin became nervous when he heard this, "Is this what Li Dao secretly stuffed in your bag?"

Lin Ao hesitated for a moment, "I guess it was him, because the person who collected the money was called Li Chengming. Among those people, who else was surnamed Li? But I don't know what to do if I call the police."

Lin Boyin knew that these things he said were the root of his enmity with others, and he was a little worried about his father's integrity for a while, in case he had paid the 500 yuan in secret back then... Maybe it was someone else life-saving money.

Then he heard his father say: "I found a post office and remitted the money to Li Chengming, using Li Dao's name."

Limbaugh was relieved.

Lin Ao could tell what his son was worried about at a glance, and gave him an angry look, "Don't you underestimate people? Are my eyelids so shallow?!"

Lin Boyin smiled, got up obediently, and brought him another glass of water.

"Don't drink anymore," Lin Ao waved his hands impatiently, "I have to go out later, drink so much water and have to find a toilet... Where did I say that?!"

Lin Boyin reminded him helplessly, "It's time to send money."

Lin Ao nodded and said, "I don't know what Li Dao is worried about, but when he was in the village, he was so anxious to leave, so I guessed, did he know some secret? Old Feng and the others didn't want Li Dao to know. , so you refuse to let him go anyway?"

"I'm also afraid that something will happen to them. If you think about the people in the deep mountains and old forests, if they have a dispute... and fight again... I will find a police station, go in and tell the police, and say that the brother who came with me to find a job has entered the mountain. The result has not come out, afraid of accidents, I want the police to look for it.”

When Lin Boyin heard this, he didn't understand why his old man could still have feuds with others, the money was also sent out, and the matter of calling the police was also settled...

"Have the police found it?"

Lin Ao spread his hands, "I can't find my way."

Lin Boyne, "..."

Lin Ao sighed, "I took a young policeman who just went to work around the mountains for two days, but I still couldn't find the village. At first, the small policeman thought I was a false police report and criticized me. Later, I looked anxious. It’s not like pretending, so I believe my words. But the police didn’t know what village I was talking about, and he said there was no such place on their map.”

Limbaugh continued to be dumbfounded.

"Later, the police stopped looking for them. He said that there are many roads in the mountain. If you don't take this one, you might just take the other one out of the mountain. People who enter the mountain often have this kind of thing. I waited again in the town. A few days. But when I asked people, no one had heard of such a village on the mountainside... Do you think this is strange?"

Lin Boyin comforted him, "Maybe, as the police said, the village is relatively close to other towns, and people in the village don't usually come to this town."

Lin Ao shook his head, "I never waited for Nan Changsheng and the others in the town. If I went to the police again, they would drive me out. I had no choice but to buy a ticket and go home."

Lin Boyin was stunned when he heard that, "That's it?"

"That's it." Lin Ao said: "I can't stay in the town forever, your grandma is still waiting for me."

Lin Boyne, "..."

This is true.

"Later, I used the money to buy a sewing machine for your grandma, and she would do work for others at home. Not to mention, that sewing machine has been used for many years. The quality of things at that time was really good."

Limbaugh didn't know what to say.

"There was no phone call at that time, so I wrote a letter to Li Chengming, asking him if he received the money and if his father came home." Lin Ao spread his hands, "I don't know if I received it, but I haven't replied anyway. Later, I had too many things to do, so I let it go."

"Later, I followed others to work in the south, and even went to the Yunnan border, and followed them to make stones. I was lucky at that time, and I got a few particularly good stones, that's it... I gradually got money in my hand The bracelet that your grandma kept as a family heirloom for her daughter-in-law was the one I got out of betting stones with others back then."

I don't know how many times I have heard Lin Ao's history of making a fortune.After he bought a sewing machine for his mother, he still had money left over, so he bought delicious food every day to pursue a very knowledgeable girl. The girl was good-looking and educated, but her ingredients were not good, and she couldn't find a good job. .

She followed her family from a big city to their small place, and when she was old, her family was also anxious about her marriage.Lin Ao was not a good choice at that time, but he was a well-known bastard in the town, and with him chasing after girls, ordinary people would not dare to bully their family.

This girl has two pieces of jade jewelry secretly hidden by her family, and she also loves this.So Lin Ao heard that someone wanted to recruit people to work in the south, so he transported stones or something to them, and went there as soon as his brain got hot.

"Your mother is my lucky star," Lin Ao sighed a thousand or eight hundred times, "From the moment I met your mother, I changed my luck. I transported stones with others and met foreigners in the jewelry business. I bet on stones with others. I gambled out good stones... I'm not even willing to sell the best ones, I left them for your mother to make jewelry."

Limbaugh knew about this.His sister has a set of jewelry, necklaces and earrings, which are made of the same material as the bracelet.

"Later, the country encouraged business, so I wanted to do something. Your mother said that business could not be done in a small town, so she persuaded me to take her back to Binhai. This is your mother's hometown, and she is also homesick. gone."

Lin Boyin thought to himself, but when he came here, he found that those people from back then all came out of this den.

Lin Ao sighed and said: "Who would have thought of this. At first I did business with a jeweler I met in the south, but when it grew bigger, I did it myself... When I got rich, I gradually got to know some of them. The local wealthy people discovered that old people like Feng Lao and Nan Changsheng are also from Binhai."

"Nan Changsheng, Zhao Mo, Feng Lao, Qiao Lao..." Lin Ao said, "But I never saw Li Dao again. I don't know if something happened to him. These people pretended not to know me afterwards, I had no choice but to pretend I didn't know them... Later I met Mr. Qiao, and when I asked about it, he warned me that I couldn't mention it in the future."

Lin Boyin thought to himself, probably killing people to silence them.

"After Mr. Qiao warned me, I became more skeptical about this matter, and quietly sent someone to inquire about Li Chengming. The news came back, saying that there was no such person in that town."

Lin Ao spread his hands, "Unknowingly how many years have passed like this. I have almost forgotten about this incident. Who knows that accidents happened one after another during this period, first Zhao Mo, then Feng Lao, I was a little bit guilty , and then Nan Changsheng came to the door."

The Nan family took the initiative to look for Lin Ao. Lin Boyin knew about it. He just made Lin Ao angry at that time, so when Lin Ao mentioned that the Nan family wanted to marry a granddaughter to the Lin family, Lin Boyin was very forthright. accepted.

"Nan Changsheng told me that this is Li Dao's son who came to take revenge. I asked him what happened to Li Dao, and he said that when they rushed down the mountain, Li Dao fell ill, so they left him in the village. I left. Later, I asked someone to inquire, and they said that Li Dao was too sick, so he just disappeared."

Lin Boyin frowned, "Do you believe it?"

Lin Ao shook his head, "I can't tell. I can't even find that village. I can't prove what he said."

"Yan Fu is Li Dao's son. Did you investigate this matter yourself, or did Nan Changsheng say it?"

"Nan Changsheng said it. So from then on, I found someone to keep an eye on Yan Fu. But whether he is Li Dao's son, or whether he came to avenge Li Dao, I can't say... There is no evidence. If I want to say that I am guilty of this matter... In fact, it is a little bit, Li Dao asked me to call the police to rescue him, I failed to handle this matter well. But the police can't do anything, what can I do?"

Lin Boyin pondered for a while, and felt that if this group of people really killed Li Dao, his old man would at best be an accomplice running errands.

There is a grievance and a debtor, and Lin Ao insists on taking revenge on Lin Ao. Lin Ao is really a little bit wronged.

But to say that he has nothing to do with this matter... that would be a bit guilty.

"Is there any evidence?" Lin Boyin asked him, "What about remittances and calling the police?"

Lin Ao got up, took out a kraft paper bag from the drawer and handed it to Lin Boyin, "The remittance receipt, the police station who called the police, and the name of the little policeman who followed me into the mountain... I later asked someone to inquire about Li Chengming. The round-trip bill for..."

Lin Boyin opened it and looked at it one by one, and took it in one by one, "This matter can't be delayed, I'll go and talk to Yan Fu. You have no grudge against Li Dao, if he really did what happened to Uncle Xin , he still owes us a life."

Lin Ao has been thinking about this for a while, "If he really did it, we have to hand it over to the police, behave..."

His expression was a little gloomy, "Xiao Xin is different from me. He has been a well-behaved and honest person since he was a child. He won't be happy to see me use those shady means to avenge him."

Limbaugh nodded silently.

Lin Ao took a deep breath, "Anyway, whether he admits it or not, if you find any evidence, hand it over to the police."

"It doesn't matter if he admits it or not." Lin Boyin comforted him and said, "We have to let him know who to turn to for revenge. Don't be like a mad dog, who catches and bites whomever."

Lin Ao nodded, "Let's talk about it. I don't know much about what happened back then. If you ask anything, please tell me, so that I won't be a fool when I die."

Lin Bo was displeased, "You're talking nonsense again. Didn't you say you were taking care of your grandson yesterday?"

Lin Ao was slightly amused by what he said, "You have to hurry up on this matter, I just want to bring my grandson for a fart?"

"Understood." Lin Boyin perfunctory him, "Don't run around these days, take someone with you when you go out."

Lin Ao waved his hand like chasing a fly, "Okay, I won't make trouble for you. Go ahead."

Coming out of the study, Lin Boyin saw that Nan Tang was already waiting outside the door, holding two medicine bottles in his hand.Seeing him coming out, he asked him with his eyes, "Can I go in?"

Lin Boyin realized that it was time for Lin Ao to take his medicine, and hurriedly said, "I forgot the time...you go in."

Nan Tang walked past him and heard him calling her name behind him.

"Nantang?"

Nan Tang turned his head and saw Lin Boyin looking at her with a pensive expression.

Nan Tang raised his eyebrows, "What's wrong?"

Lin Boyin pursed the corners of his lips, as if he wasn't used to talking to her in such a peaceful manner, "I've troubled you. Thank you."

Nan Tang looked at the medicine bottle in his hand, and looked at him speechlessly, "What can I thank you for? Dad is very good to me."

Lin Boyin said seriously: "Thank you."

If Nan Tang hadn't been coaxing and persuading him like an old child all day long, he wouldn't have accepted Uncle Xin so calmly.

Lin Boyin had heard Nan Tang say to Lin Ao in a natural tone: "Uncle Xin is just going ahead, we will go sooner or later, we will meet again."

The assumption that they will meet each other immediately appeased Lin Ao.He even asked childishly, "Will we really meet again?"

"Of course I will." Nan Tang's answer at that time was extremely firm, or in her heart, she understood the matter of life and death in this way.

She said to the old man in an affirmative tone that could not be refuted: "Look, that is a place where we will all go. As for you, you are not in good health. Uncle Xin will take care of all the big and small things around you. Uncle Xin must not worry about everyone Let's just go there together... So he has to tidy up your room in advance, lest we all go there and not even have a hot meal."

What he said was sad and funny, and Lin Boyin's eyes were red when he eavesdropped.But such a childish statement made him feel much better.

Lin Ao was comforted. He sat there thinking for a long time, then nodded and said, "Yes, Xiao Xin is such a thoughtful person... then let him go and wait for me to go too Now, I'll take care of him in turn...I don't know what's going on with his leg now..."

It seems that Uncle Xin really just went to a strange place ahead of time to serve as an outpost for everyone.

"Thank you." Limboine said again.

Nan Tang gave him a strange look, "No need."

Isn't it a matter of course to take care of someone who treats her well?Nan Tang didn't understand what to be thankful for, but he had a better impression of himself, which certainly wasn't a bad thing.

Nan Tang thought to himself, when it comes to divorce in the future, for his father's sake, he shouldn't deliberately make things difficult for himself, right?

She doesn't have any unreasonable thoughts about the Lin family's wealth, as long as she can successfully take away the dowry from the Nan family.
