Chapter 694 Ran Qiuye and Lu Jia Chat
Gu Nan still has great faith in these private detectives. After all, they are paid to do the job, so naturally they don't have any personal ideas.
Gu Nan went straight home, where his family was waiting for him.
When Gu Nan slowly returned to the courtyard, the afterglow of the setting sun was gently falling on the courtyard, casting a light golden hue on the entire courtyard. He saw Ran Qiuye standing in the middle of the courtyard chatting with a girl, so he walked over with interest.
When they got closer, Gu Nan saw clearly that the girl was actually He Yuzhu's blind date. He smiled and said, "Qiuye, the weather is getting cold, why are you still chatting so enthusiastically outside?"
Ran Qiuye raised her head, a gentle smile on her face, and said, "This is Lu Jia, He Yuzhu's girlfriend. Lu Jia has a very good personality and is very easy to get along with."
After hearing Ran Qiuye's introduction, Lu Jia immediately turned his gaze to Gu Nan, with a hint of flattery and admiration in his eyes, and said, "I have heard of Engineer Gu's name for a long time! At such a young age, he became the youngest engineer in the steel mill. This achievement is not something that ordinary people can have."
Gu Nan just nodded politely and responded modestly: "They are just empty names, no big deal." After that, he thought about some things to deal with at home, so he turned around and went home.
Ran Qiuye also felt that it was getting late and the child was still waiting at home, so she said goodbye to Lu Jia and hurriedly followed Gu Nan back home.
Lu Jia looked at Gu Nan's departing back, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, a barely perceptible coldness flashed in her eyes, and she thought to herself: "It seems that Ran Qiuye is easier to get along with. Let's start with Ran Qiuye and slowly get to know her, step by step. Gu Nan, I'm going to make you lose your child first, and then your wife. I want to see what you can do."
At this time, He Yuzhu hummed a little tune, carrying some food in his hand, and walked slowly into the courtyard. He saw Lu Jia standing alone at the door with a puzzled look on his face, so he quickly quickened his pace and walked over, asking with concern: "Lu Jia, why don't you go in? Is there something wrong?"
Lu Jia's face instantly changed into a sweet smile, and she said, "No, I was just chatting with the people in the courtyard. By the way, I heard that Xu Damao was arrested. What's going on?"
He Yuzhu couldn't help but laugh, and said jokingly, "Who knows what that idiot was thinking? He had to find someone to do something bad, but ended up losing more than he gained. He was severely beaten up, and now he was arrested by the police."
Lu Jia actually knew the whole thing clearly. After all, all of Brother Hu's men had been arrested, so this piece of land naturally became pockmarked. This made it much easier for her to act. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel secretly proud.
He Yuzhu wanted to say something else, but suddenly, Lu Jia saw Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai walking into the yard. She suddenly had an idea and said to He Yuzhu, "Brother Zhuzi, what delicious food did you bring back today?"
He Yuzhu instantly understood what Lu Jia meant. Ever since he knew that Qin Huairu was involved in Xu Damao's case, his disgust for the Jia family became even stronger.
He smiled and replied to Lu Jia: "Lu Jia, I thought you like braised pork, so I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a piece of top-quality pork belly. We will make braised pork later."
Qin Huairu happened to hear this, and she thought to herself, Banggeng is still hungry at home, it would be great if this braised pork could be given to Banggeng. So, she hurried forward, looked at He Yuzhu, and was about to say: "Zhuzi, today..."
Who knew that He Yuzhu just looked at Qin Huairu coldly, not giving her a chance to speak, and said directly to Lu Jia: "Lu Jia, let's go home and make braised pork."
Lu Jia understood and said in a very cooperative manner: "Really? Brother Zhuzi, how do you know that I like braised pork the most? If you ask me, our family should also do the same as Gu Nan's family and raise a dog outside. That way, no one will dare to go to other people's homes casually. It will save us a lot of trouble."
Qin Huairu was not a fool, so she could tell that Lu Jia was referring to her. She was so angry that her face turned red, but she couldn't get angry, so she could only look at Yi Zhonghai for help and said aggrievedly, "Uncle, look at He Yuzhu, is this human language?"
Since He Yuzhu learned something from Qin Huairu last time, his attitude towards her has become very cold. Qin Huairu is also helpless. Although He Yuzhu took the money she gave him, his attitude towards her has become worse and worse.
Yi Zhonghai has been secretly investigating who told He Yuzhu about these things, but he has not found out the reason yet. He even suspects that it is very likely that his wife leaked the news.
Seeing that Yi Zhonghai hadn't said anything for a long time, Qin Huairu urged anxiously, "Uncle, what do you think He Yuzhu is talking about? Please help me judge the matter."
Yi Zhonghai forced a smile on his face, which was filled with helplessness and perfunctoriness. He gently patted Qin Huairu's shoulder and said soothingly, "Qin Huairu, you also know He Yuzhu's temper. He is always straightforward. You should not bother with him. I will find a chance to have a good talk with him later. I hope he can restrain himself and stop being so irresponsible."
Qin Huairu's eyes welled up with tears after hearing what Yi Zhonghai said. She looked at Yi Zhonghai with gratitude and said, "Uncle, you know our family's situation. You said that Banggeng finally came back, and I was happy to learn cooking from He Yuzhu so that I could have a skill in the future. But look at He Yuzhu's attitude now. It seems that there is no hope for this matter."
At this point, she paused for a moment, her face full of worry, and continued, "Uncle, think about it, Banggeng just plays around at home all day and doesn't do anything serious. If he continues like this, how can we take care of you in your old age? You've been so concerned about our family, we can't just watch you grow old without anyone to take care of you."
These words, like a precise arrow, shot straight into Yi Zhonghai's heart. Yi Zhonghai's greatest hope had always been that Banggeng would be successful and take care of him in his old age.
Now, after hearing what Qin Huairu said, he suddenly felt heavy in his heart, and the smile he had just forced out disappeared without a trace, replaced by deep worry. He frowned, his eyes full of worry, and thought to himself: Yes, if Banggeng continues to be so muddle-headed, what will happen to his later years?
