Network New Liao Zhai

Chapter 261

Seeing that Grandma Ai didn't want to say more, Xu Feng knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he had to say goodbye to Xiao Ou and go to the canteen.

The van outside the canteen was still there, but it was covered with snow.

But the door of the canteen was still closed.

"Uncle Sheng Cai, Uncle Sheng Cai..." Xiao Ou opened his voice and shouted.

"Don't call him, he's still asleep..."

A woman answered from inside and opened the door.

"Yo, it's Xiaoou, when did you come back? I didn't see you. Is your mother back?"

"Aunt Sheng Cai, you came back late last night. After saying hello to Uncle Sheng Cai, you hurried home. My mother has to wait for a few days."

Aunt Sheng Cai: "Oh, last night, then I may have fallen asleep. Your uncle and the others played cards until it was almost dawn. They are still catching up on sleep. Come on, sit in the room."

There is a stove in the middle of the main room, and a kettle sits on the stove, steaming, and there are several mahjong tables around it.

One of the mahjong tables is still on the table, and it can be seen that there are traces of fighting last night.

The next room is the canteen, which has several rows of shelves filled with goods, just like a small convenience store.

"Sit casually, the room is very messy. I didn't have time to clean it up."

Aunt Sheng Cai greeted her.

"Auntie, it's not a big deal, when all the people who go out during the Chinese New Year come back, playing mahjong, fighting landlords, playing long cards, shopping, and children running around, that's the real excitement. It was messy enough at that time, so I have to trouble you to clean it up, Auntie?"

"Well, there are only a few days of excitement throughout the year, and usually there are only one or two tables of people playing cards."

"Auntie, it's really right for you to open a small shop and a mahjong parlor in the village. Not only is it convenient for the villagers to shop, but there is also an extra place to walk around."

"Well, I'm just trying to make ends meet. If your uncle hadn't been injured, why would he still be working outside? That's fine. I don't want to make a lot of money, but I just want the family to be safe together."

"That's the reason. By the way, when will Uncle Ai and the others come back? His new house is beautifully repaired. Don't you come back to live in it sooner?"

"I don't know about this, I guess it will be soon."

"Didn't they call back?"

"Who are you calling, his old lady? His old lady doesn't answer them...the new house has been repaired, and she didn't even come over to take a look..."

It is not easy for Xiao Ou to continue discussing this topic, so he asked instead: "Did anyone else call back?"

"Yes, Xiaoqiang, Gouzi, Youcai, Shengde's family, and Yumei, said they will be home in just a few days..."

"What about Ah Hui and the others?"

"Ah Hui? No. He went out with Ai Lao Liu, maybe he will come back with him?"

"Auntie, do you have Uncle Ai's number? I'll call him and ask."

"There is one, I'll look for it for you. Ah Xiang came to ask about it two days ago, and even called this number, but he didn't get through, saying that the phone was turned off..."

Aunt Sheng Cai was chattering, went inside and found a homework book for elementary school students and said, "Hey, those who have a phone number are written here, you can read it yourself."

Xiao Ou took it, and some people's names and phone numbers were written crookedly on it. These are the phone numbers of people in the village who have mobile phones.

Xu Feng stood up suddenly and said to Aunt Sheng Cai, "Auntie, do you have cigarettes for sale?"

"Yes, come in and take a look. There are Yunyan and Guiyan. I don't know which kind you usually smoke?"

He took Xu Feng into the next room.

Xiao Ou took pictures of the phone numbers in the homework book with his mobile phone, and called them when he went back.

After Xu Feng bought the cigarettes and came out, the two left.

"Come and play when you have time!"

Aunt Shengcai sent them out, and then closed the door ajarly. Just as she turned around, she saw Yang Shengcai standing behind her.

"Oh, you startled me by being silent, hey, why are you up and not sleeping anymore?"

"With your loud voice, it's like you're afraid you won't wake me up. I'll be surprised if I can sleep."

"Where is my voice so loud..."

"Did Xiaoou come just now? What did you say?"

"Didn't you say that we have a loud voice? You should have heard everything clearly, why are you asking me?"

Aunt Sheng Cai said angrily.

"You silly woman, you still dare to talk back, why is your skin itchy, say..."

Yang Shengcai raised his hand as a gesture.

Seeing that he was really angry, Aunt Sheng Cai didn't confront him, and said, "Xiao Ou came to ask Ai Lao Liu's phone number, probably to ask when Ah Hui will come back!"

"Oh...you gave it to her?"

"Yes, what's the matter?"

Only after Yang Sheng heard this did he turn around and go upstairs again without saying a word.

"Oh, what are you doing up there again?"

"Go up and continue to sleep."

Yang Shengcai said without looking back.

On the way back, Xiao Ou asked: Brother Feng, should we go to another house to ask? "

"No need, go back and wait, wait for Sister Qiqi and the others to come back."

Xu Feng has already sent a text message to Guo Qiqi asking them to come back.

When they returned to Xiao Ou's house, Guo Qiqi had just arrived.

Xiaoqin didn't come up, she went home to help her mother with things, it's better, now what they want to say, I don't want Xiaoqin to know for the time being.

Guo Qiqi spoke first: "How about it, you guys."

Xiao Ou: "I didn't gain much, but I got Ai Lao Liu's phone number."

Guo Qiqi: "That's right, it can be considered a small gain."

Xu Feng: "This phone number is probably not very useful. If you don't believe me, try it."

Xiao Ou took out the phone number that took the picture, found Ai Laoliu's number to dial, and a notification sound came from the phone: The phone you dialed has been turned off...

Xiao Ou called again.

"Perhaps they have changed their number a long time ago. No matter how much you call, it's useless?"

Xiao Ou: "Then what should I do?"

"It's okay. We came all the way from here. We didn't come here to find a phone number. I have something else to gain."

"What harvest?"

"Just now, when we were talking to Aunt Sheng Cai at the canteen, I heard footsteps coming downstairs."

Xiao Ou: "Why didn't I hear it. When?"

Guo Qiqi: "If you can hear it, then Xu Feng's kung fu practice will be in vain."

Xu Feng: "When I asked if there were any cigarettes, when I went to the canteen to get cigarettes, I saw a shadow hiding at the stairs. Yang Shengchang was standing on the stairs and secretly listening to us."

Xiao Ou: "Didn't Aunt Sheng Cai say that he was sleeping? Maybe he heard us talking and wanted to come down to say hello."

Guo Qiqi: "Even if he came down to say hello, he should show up openly. Why should he be sneaky?"

Xu Feng: "I don't think the two of us have such a big face, let him get up from the bed to greet him! Tell me, why did he eavesdrop? Isn't this place without silver 300 taels?"

Guo Qiqi: "Look, this is the manifestation of a guilty conscience. There is really something wrong with Yang Shengcai. If you are scared, you will be exposed. And the two families we visited just now also have the shadow of Yang Shengcai."

Xu Feng: "Then tell me quickly."

Guo Qiqi: "We only went to Yang Xuejun and Yang Shengwu's house just now, and we also inquired about some things. Yang Xuejun's mother and Yang Shengwu's wife said that they haven't called back since they went out, and they don't know when they will come back.

They didn't plan to go out this year. They stayed in the village all day, and ran to the canteen when they had nothing to do. They either played mahjong or listened to Yang Shengcai brag about Ai Laoliu and how they made a lot of money outside...

Seeing the construction of several new houses started, he couldn't help feeling itchy, and he lost money playing mahjong, so he wanted to go out to earn some money to pay off the debts, so Yang Shengcai asked them to find Ai Laoliu to take them out to earn money.This talk moved a few other people, namely Ai Bo, Ai Xueyong, Zhang Ansheng and Yang Xiaohui, so they followed Ai Laoliu out.Except for Yang Shengwu who is older and considered an elder, the others are all teenagers and haven't traveled far.

I was still a little worried when I heard their tone, but they said that it was like this in the village, and it was fine if one took the other out to exercise. "

Xu Feng: "This Yang Sheng is advocating that these people go out with Ai Laoliu, I'm afraid he did it deliberately..."

Guo Qiqi: "Then he can be regarded as an intermediary at worst. And Ai Laoliu has these migrant workers in his hands. If he didn't take them to Jiangcheng, what would he take them to do? What can he do without education and technology, and how much money can he earn? The only one The most valuable thing is the body, it can't be... Sigh! Why did I think of organ trading again, hehe... Or it's the theft gang or the robbery gang... Only these are the quickest money..."

Guo Qiqi was talking to herself, and Xiao Ou's face turned pale.

Xu Feng: "Don't be scary here, let's tell Brother Kai and Sister Zhu Zhu about the situation here, and see what they say."

"Okay, contact them quickly."
