Qiao Zuwang ran over panting, and when he saw Wang Gang, it was as if he had found a life-saving straw, and he held on to his arm tightly.
"Second Qiang, you have to save me."
Wang Gang frowned slightly, and Qiao Yicheng heard the sound and came over.
"Dad, why are you here?" Qiao Qiqi asked doubtfully.
Qiao Zuwang ignored Qiao Qiqi at all and only had Wang Gang in his eyes.
"Second Strong, the police want to arrest me."
Wang Gang snorted coldly: "Because of smuggling?"
Qiao Zuwang nodded and said: "That bastard Lao Li took the money and ran away, and now the police want me to be responsible.
Erqiang, I am your biological father, you can't ignore me!"
Qiao Yicheng walked over with a cold face and said: "How did Erqiang and I persuade you not to do business, but you just didn't listen. Now you deserve it if something goes wrong."
Qiao Zuwang cried: "I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, Yi Cheng, Er Qiang, you can't watch me die!"
Qi Weimin asked: "Uncle, what is going on? Please explain the matter clearly."
Xiang Nanfang also came over and said to Qiao Zuwang: "Dad, please sit down in the room first."
After Qiao Zuwang entered the house, he finally explained the matter clearly.
It turned out that Lao Li was a liar at all, and he was not involved in smuggling. Everything was a scam. He was just deceiving people into investing, and then fled with the money.
Now that the police can't catch anyone, the perpetrator has found him again, so Qiao Zuwang is naturally responsible. After all, he advertises that he and Lao Li are business partners all day long, and all the neighbors in Shamao Lane can testify.
"I didn't know that Lao Li was a liar. I was defrauded of all my money. Now those creditors insist on paying me back." Qiao Zuwang cried aggrievedly.
Xiang Nanfang understood and said: "It stands to reason that if you have not participated in the fraud, the police will not wrongly accuse you?"
Wang Gang snorted coldly: "Old man, tell us honestly whether you were involved or not!"
"No." Qiao Zuwang stood up excitedly and swore to the sky: "If I knew that Lao Li was a liar, I would be hit by a car and die when I went out, and I would never be able to play cards again."
Wang Gang and Qiao Yicheng looked at each other and both believed that Qiao Zuwang was not panicking. The old man didn't have the courage to do such a thing as fraud.
"Then just go to the police and explain it clearly. Why are you looking for me?" Wang Gang said impatiently.
Qiao Zuwang said aggrievedly: "The police didn't give me any trouble, but those creditors wouldn't let me go! They blocked me at home every day and asked me to pay back the money."
Wang Gang finally understood why Qiao Zuwang came to see him.
"You come to me, don't you think I can pay you back?" Wang Gang sneered.
Qiao Zuwang said with a sad face: "They said if I don't pay back the money, they will beat me every time they see me."
Wang Gang said nonchalantly: "If they beat you, call the police."
"If they beat me to death, what's the use of calling the police?" Qiao Zuwang cried.
"You deserve to be beaten to death. Who asked you to bluster all the time and tell people that you and Lao Li are in business together?" Wang Gang said disdainfully.
Xiang Nannan was dissatisfied with Wang Gang's attitude towards Qiao Zuwang, and softly comforted Qiao Zuwang: "Dad, don't worry, those people are just asking for money to scare you. If they come to you again, you can call the police directly and let the police deal with it."
Qiao Zuwang said pitifully: "Daughter-in-law, can I stay at your house? The old house is full of people, and I can't even sleep well."
Wang Gang frowned and said, "Simei and Qiqi live here, and you won't have anywhere to live if you come over.
If you ask me to tell you, if you have trouble calling the police, you'd better go back and live there."
Qiao Zuwang burst into tears and sat on the ground rolling around.
"I have five children, but no one cares about me in the end. It's so miserable!"
Everyone watched Qiao Zuwang's performance, and everyone's expression was different.
Qiao Yicheng felt embarrassed.
Wen Ju'an was worried that Qiao Zuwang would make trouble at his house.
Qiao Qiqi is still young and doesn't understand much about this.
Xiang Nannan tried to persuade Qiao Zuwang, but it had no effect.
Only Qi Weimin, who has a pure and kind nature, truly cares about Qiao Zuwang.
"Uncle, how about you and I go back to Shamao Lane and find those people to explain the matter clearly?"
When Qiao Zuwang saw someone paying attention to him, he seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and held on to Qi Weimin's arm.
"Weimin, you are the only one who still cares about your uncle. What kind of bastards have I given birth to? Everyone is looking forward to the death of my old father."
Wang Gang watched with cold eyes, not caring about Qiao Zuwang at all.
Anyway, the Qiao brothers, except Qiao Qiqi, have all grown up, and it doesn't matter whether they have Qiao Zuwang as their father or not.
Qiao Zuwang can live to this day, in fact, he should be grateful to Wang Gang for his lack of cruelty and his inability to kill his father.
But if he wanted Wang Gang to clean up the mess, Qiao Zuwang had made the wrong calculation.
In the end, Qiao Yicheng couldn't bear it anymore and agreed to work with Qi Weimin to send Qiao Zuwang home and have a good talk with those creditors.
On the rare New Year's Eve, because of Qiao Zuwang's incident, the Qiao family has not had a good time in the past year.
On the first day of the new year, Wang Gang and Xiang Nannan returned to Xiang's house and met their brother-in-law Xiang Beifang. The family reunited and drank some wine.
Father Xiang heard about Qiao Zuwang from somewhere, and asked him with concern.
"Would you like me to say hello about the in-laws' matter?"
Wang Gang shook his head and said: "No, he is also a victim this time. It doesn't matter if he pays some money, just treat it as a lesson."
Father Xiang said in a deep voice: "You are about to be graded. Don't let things at home affect you."
The leader of the sports team talked to Wang Gang years ago. In view of the honor he brought to the country, he was promoted to a post after the year, and his position will be in the army in the future.
"Two strong men, what military ranks have been decided this time?" Xiang Beigui asked curiously.
"Captain." Wang Gang said calmly: "It is considered a civilian position and enjoys the treatment of a major."
Xiang Beifang said enviously: "That means you can still be promoted, and the lowest is the school level."
Although Wang Gang doesn't care much about military rank, the third generation of the Xiang family was born in the military, so he attaches great importance to Wang Gang's ranking.
"Nanfang has done a good job in the work unit. The above plan is to drop her to the grassroots level for training." Xiang's father said to Wang Gang:
"When I say grassroots level, I mean the county."
Wang Gang frowned and said, "Jianning County?"
"Yes, the higher-ups attach great importance to the development of Jiangning County and plan to transfer a large number of grassroots cadres to vigorously develop the county and lay the foundation for future county changes to districts."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xiang Beifang said: "This is a good opportunity. If Nanfang does well, he is very likely to become the top leader in the county."
Father Xiang shook his head and said: "Nanfang is too young and needs to train for a few more years. I can help her before I retire."
Wang Gang understood that Xiang's father wanted to allocate all the resources of the Xiang family to Xiang Nanfang to help her stabilize her official career.
Looking at Xiang Beifang's appearance, he didn't have any objections.
"Dad, I will definitely support the work in the south." Wang Gang said with a smile.
Father Xiang is saying hello to Wang Gang in advance. Xiang Nanfang will be busy with work from now on and will hardly be able to take care of his family.
Fortunately, Wang Gang is not a male chauvinist, and of course he must support his wife's career.
He himself is not a traditional person and insists on having his wife stay at home to take care of her husband and raise children.
After coming out of Xiang's house, Wang Gang and Xiang Nannan met Qiao Yicheng when they returned home. It seemed that he had been waiting for a long time.
"Second Qiang, the old man is really in trouble. Can you lend him some money first?" Qiao Yicheng saw Wang Gang and hesitated for a long time before speaking.
"What's wrong? We haven't reached an agreement with those creditors?" Wang Gang opened the door and asked Qiao Yicheng to come in first.
"The old man didn't tell the truth. Most of the people who asked him for debts were people who were encouraged by him to invest, so they stared at him and asked for money." Qiao Yicheng sighed.
Wang Gang asked: "Didn't I tell him not to lie to his neighbors?"
Qiao Yicheng shook his head and said: "There are no neighbors, most of them are the old man's former colleagues in the factory.
Logically speaking, the old man didn't force them to invest money, but those people are really in trouble, and some of them can't even open the door to their families."
Wang Gang understood that Qiao Yicheng was not helping the old man, but because he felt pity for those who had been deceived and had a kind heart.
But Wang Gang couldn't pay this money.
"Brother, it's not that I have no sympathy. Being defrauded in investments is all personal behavior. There is no reason for me to pay the bill."
Qiao Yicheng is soft-hearted, but he cannot cheat his brother's money to celebrate the New Year with outsiders. There are no such rules in the world.
"This money is considered a loan, I will pay it back." Qiao Yicheng gritted his teeth.
Wang Gang shook his head and sighed: "Brother, if you are poor, you will be alone!"
Qiao Yicheng was shocked and understood Wang Gang's attitude.
"Okay! I'll go back first." Qiao Yicheng stood up and prepared to leave.
Xiang Nanfang couldn't stand it anymore and took some new year's goods to Qiao Yicheng to take away.
After Qiao Yicheng left, Xiang Nannan asked Wang Gang: "Erqiang, you really don't want to interfere with your father's affairs."
"You can't take care of this matter." Wang Gang said firmly: "I understand the old man's character. If I take care of it this time, he will do it next time. I can't give him the answer every time.
This is not helping him, but harming him."
Xiang Nannan said worriedly: "I'm worried that dad will blame you."
Wang Gang sneered: "How could I care what he thinks."
