Chapter 150 149. The Fourth Brother’s Savior

The fourth brother quickly brought over a stool and pulled Zhang Kui to sit down.

Zhang Kui touched the fourth brother's head, then searched his pockets and smiled awkwardly.

"I don't have any money on me. I'll pay you next time." Zhang Kui's dark face flushed a little.

"Uncle, please don't be polite. Just treat your visit to our house as your own." Father Du said seriously.

Du Chuan was a little puzzled as to why his parents were so warm and polite. He didn't even know this person, so he was obviously not a relative.

"We two brothers must have a good drink today." said Father Du.

After saying that, he poured wine for Zhang Kui himself. Du Chuan stood up to help but pushed the offer away.

Father Du and Zhang Kui drank two cups first, then Father Du asked, "Da Kui, why didn't you tell me you were moving? I couldn't find you even if I went to look for you."

Zhang Kui said in a muffled voice: "It's embarrassing to say it out loud."

Father Du was a little confused when he heard this, but before he could ask, Zhang Kui said, "Alas, it's a misfortune for our family."

"That bastard kid in my family gambled away all his money and lost everything in our home."

His eyes turned red as he spoke, "Why did I give birth to such a bastard? Sometimes I really want to strangle him to death."

Father Du opened his mouth, not knowing how to comfort the child. How to comfort a child who is still young?

Zhang Kui's son is already twenty years old this year, and he was able to lose all his house, which shows that he is no small person.

"That bastard didn't even come back for the New Year this year. I asked around and found out that he went to gamble nearby, so I thought I'd come over to look for him."

"Unfortunately, I am unfamiliar with this place, so I just wanted to come over to disturb you," said Zhang Kui.

Upon hearing this, Father Du immediately said, "Don't worry, I'll go find someone for you right away. Your boy's name is Zhang Bing, right?"

Zhang Kui nodded and said with some shame: "I'm really sorry to bother you so much on New Year's Day."

Du's mother said, "Uncle, please don't say that. If it weren't for you, our fourth child would have been abducted by human traffickers. You were stabbed to save him. You have done a great favor to our family."

Only then did Du Chuan understand why his father and mother were so enthusiastic about Zhang Kui. It turned out that he saved the fourth child in their family.

No wonder the fourth brother acted like this when he saw Zhang Kui. You have to know that the fourth brother is very introverted. Not to mention outsiders, he has never been so enthusiastic even to many relatives and friends.

It has been two years since he came back, and his family has never mentioned this matter.

“Don’t worry, I just happened to see it. Others would help if they saw it.” Zhang Kui said quickly.

Father Du said a few more words quickly, then got up to help find someone.

Du Chuan asked: "Do you know of any gambling places nearby?"

It's so late at night, it's impossible to just search blindly.

Father Du was slightly stunned, and then he heard Du Chuan say: "I'll go find someone to ask about the situation first. Uncle, you eat something first, and I'll ask someone first."

Since he had saved his brother's life, Du Chuan naturally could not turn a blind eye to it.

"This is our second son, Du Chuan. He went to the countryside as an educated youth." Du's father first introduced him.

Then he asked Du Chuan: "Who are you asking?"

Du Chuan said: "Wang Daqing, he has been gambling all the time, so it should be right to ask him."

He also didn't expect that after just rejecting Wang Daqing, he would now ask him for help, which made him feel helpless.

"That's really a bother for you." Zhang Kui said immediately. Du Chuan said: "Uncle, it's not a bother, I just want to find out something, you eat first, I'll be back soon."

Having said that, Du Chuan got up and went out, and soon arrived at the door of Wang Daqing's house.

At this time, their family had just had dinner, but the food on the table was a bit pitiful, with only two dishes, and both of them were vegetarian.

Eating such dishes during the New Year's Day clearly shows that Wang Daqing has emptied the family's wealth.

Du Chuan had no emotion when he saw this scene. As for sympathy? Gamblers don't deserve sympathy.

"Xiaochuan? Please come in." Wang Daqing was a little surprised to see Du Chuan coming, but he was very happy.

"Uncle, aunt, I have something to talk to Brother Daqing about." Du Chuan ignored Wang Daqing and greeted the old couple first.

Then he signaled Wang Daqing to come out and speak.

After coming out, Du Chuan threw a cigarette to Wang Daqing. Wang Daqing took it, looked at it in the dim light, but finally couldn't bear to smoke it.

These cigarettes cost only a few cents each, so it would be nice to exchange them for some money.

"Xiaochuan, is there anything you want to talk to me about?" Wang Daqing asked.

Du Chuan asked, "Do you know any gambling places nearby?"

Wang Daqing was slightly stunned, then he said happily: "You want to play two rounds?"

"I'm telling you, there's nothing around here that I'm not familiar with. There's fun for all ages. Come on, I'll take you there right now."

He was very enthusiastic and even a little impatient. Not to mention anything else, as long as Du Chuan had a little bit of money in his hands, it would be enough for him to have fun for a few days.

He also wanted to win more money from Du Chuan.

Du Chuan waved his hand and said, "I just want to ask first, how many are there here, and where are they?"

Wang Daqing's eyes flickered when he heard this. "Ahem, Xiaochuan, it's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that these places require someone to lead you in."

He felt that Du Chuan didn't seem to be going there to gamble.
Du Chuan saw this and knew that it was impossible to ask for the address directly, so he simply said, "I'm going there to look for someone."

After saying that, without waiting for Wang Daqing to say anything, he took out a stack of money from his pocket. He didn't count it, but it was at least one or two hundred yuan.

"If you take me to all the gambling places nearby, then this money will be yours." Du Chuan shook the money in front of him.

Wang Daqing's eyes followed the money in Du Chuan's hand, and then he turned his head and said with great determination: "Xiao Chuan, this is against the rules."

Du Chuan turned around and left after hearing this. "Forget it, I'll ask other people. I'm sure you're not the only one who knows."

Wang Daqing panicked when he saw this. Although he only took a quick look, he estimated that Du Chuan had about two hundred yuan in his hand.

It's such a huge amount of money, he can't bear to part with it.

"Xiaochuan, Xiaochuan, don't be anxious. Isn't it enough that I promised you?" Wang Daqing hurriedly stopped Du Chuan.

Du Chuan turned around and said, "I made it clear in advance that it is all the gambling places nearby. Otherwise, I won't give you the money."

Wang Daqing patted his chest and said, "Brother, are you still worried about me? As long as there is a gambling place nearby, there is nothing I don't know."

But he was a little hesitant as he spoke, "Xiaochuan, I want to remind you, don't cause any trouble when you get there, those people are not easy to mess with."

As if afraid that Du Chuan would not believe it, he secretly made a grabbing gesture, "They have this, I have seen more than one or two."
