1542. Chapter 1542 Dig a hole and wait for the thief to jump 【01】
However, he was afraid that the old man would look down on him, so he naturally had to put on a show and threatened those people at the top of his voice, asking his brothers to fight against him.
In the end, those men didn't care about him and beat him up hard, until Yeli's nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he kept whining in pain.
It was Hou Shou who persuaded him to start the fight. The men saw that he was doing well at the table, so they didn't feel embarrassed. They just said that Ye Li owed money to the gambling house.
Ye Li shouted from the side, "It was agreed that it would take three months. Why don't you keep your promise? How can you collect the bill early?"
One of the men sneered and said: "Aren't you going to show off on the street that you have met a rich person and you will have money to repay your debt immediately? You'd better pay back the money you owe first."
Ye Li glared and pulled his neck, but met Hou Shou's calm but slightly disappointed eyes.
Yeli was anxious and hurriedly wanted to explain.
But the old man Hou Shou pretended to be shook his head, raised his hand to stop him, and said to those men: "I am his friend, and I will pay the debt."
That person did the math and asked for three hundred taels of silver.
Hou Shou didn't hesitate, and immediately took out three silver notes worth one hundred taels and handed them to them.
Those people looked at it and saw that it was true. They immediately bowed their hands, said a few polite words and then left.
They came and went like the wind, but the mess in the box was visible.
Seeing that Hou Shou was disappointed, Ye Li felt his head heat up for a moment, rushed over and knelt down, "My father-in-law, please don't misunderstand me. Don't misunderstand me. I'm an innocent person. They were just a scheme to cheat me that time."
To gamble."
Looking at his eager look, Hou Shou and others almost burst out laughing.
He waved his hand and said, "My dear nephew, you don't need to explain. I believe you."
Ye Li suddenly burst into tears. He almost regarded Hou Shou as his biological father and kept kowtowing.
Over there, Lu Cunyou's eyes flashed with confusion. He was a little confused by what was happening in front of him. First of all, he was not sure that his family had such a close family.
Secondly, this family looks very strange, but it is said that the mother-in-law has four daughters.
They look like a family, but everything is strange.
My mother-in-law is not young, but she walks briskly and has bright eyes. She is not old at all.
And those girls, although they all have ordinary pretty faces, one of them is different from them.
The four of them look like sisters, but the other one doesn't. She looks like a lady from a famous family, her movements are noble and elegant.
As for this old man, there are even more problems. How can someone praise him as a scumbag as soon as they meet him, and even betroth his daughter to him? That is simply a dream.
Either he is not his biological father, or there is something else involved.
Although Lu Cunyou is now bullied into a coward by Granny Lu and Ye Li, it does not mean that he is a fool. When he was doing business with his father, he was also praised for his intelligence.
So when the adulterer and the two were getting carried away, Lu Cunyou felt something was wrong.
His father is dead, and now even the close relatives and friends have faded away, let alone people with whom he has no contact.
At least he had never seen this old man and old woman before. They appeared out of thin air. He couldn't tell why.
But he also noticed that they had no ill intentions towards him, but instead...
