Chapter 370: Chapter 7: Rich Relatives_3

As Tang Zheng left the village, his phone rang. Seeing it was an unfamiliar number, he guessed who was calling.

"Hello," Tang Zheng stood by a telegraph pole, indifferently browsing through various small adverts posted on it.

"Brother Tang, you left your money at our house."

Sister-in-law Lin frowned at Old Soldier’s wife and whispered, "Who asks like that? What if the money isn’t his?"

"I didn’t leave it, I gave it to you. It’s Weiguo’s wages." Tang Zheng was frustrated at having to make excuses to give money, and he now despised this kind of straightforward person.

"What kind of wages is such a large sum?" Sister-in-law Lin obviously didn’t believe it, "I know you want to help us, but there really is no need. The money Weiguo earns is enough for us."

"Didn’t Weiguo bring back several million before? This is the remainder." Tang Zheng said calmly, "If you have any doubts, you can ask him when he gets back. But don’t save the money, spend it, start by finding a wife for your eldest son."

"Several million?" Old Soldier’s wife, who was eavesdropping, muttered under her breath, exchanging a glance with the other elderly woman, both of them surprised that the good-for-nothing old soldier Lin Weiguo had made a wealthy friend after serving a few years in prison.

"But Brother Tang..." Sister-in-law Lin was considerably reassured when she heard that he knew about Weiguo bringing back money.

"As for showing off your wealth, don’t worry, you have my number. Give me a call if you encounter any trouble, I’ll get there quickly." Tang Zheng heard someone muttering on the other end of the phone, but he didn’t care. It was just as well that the story had got out, Weiguo should be held in higher regard by the villagers, which would wipe away the shadow of his prison sentence. Tang Zheng felt terrible thinking about how Weiguo’s son didn’t even recognize him.

"Speaking of which, buy a mobile phone for Tao Lei, otherwise, I won’t be able to contact you." Tang Zheng exclaimed, saying, "If there is nothing else, I’m going to hang up."

"Is this guy an idiot?" Old Soldier’s wife’s eyes sparkled, eyeing the travel bag and saying, "Count it quickly."

"Two million, it’s written here." Shi Tou shook the note in his hand, saying, "Mom, I want to eat chicken."

"I always said Tang Zheng was a good person." The innocent Tao Lei didn’t care about the amount of money. She felt happy that Tang Zheng had proven his character to the villagers.

"Speaking of which, Sister Lin, your youngest isn’t so young anymore. I can introduce him to some prospects. He’s quite handsome, girls would definitely be interested." Old Soldier’s wife grinned from ear to ear, making small talk.

"Didn’t you say that because my dad has been in prison, no one wants to marry my brother?" Shi Tou, being a bit slow, didn’t understand the implied meaning and left Old Soldier’s wife a bit embarrassed, "Just now you were saying Uncle Tang isn’t a good person."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Old Soldier’s wife laughed awkwardly and changed the subject, continuing to discuss the marriage arrangements of Sister-in-law Lin’s son, "Get your son to come home first for a blind date."

They’re all neighbors, so Sister-in-law Lin couldn’t just dismiss them. She had to go along with their conversation half-heartedly. Somehow, she had a sudden rush of relief in her heart.

"Sister, here are some fries. They’re really good." Shi Tou handed Tao Lei a bag of fries and whispered, "Let’s slaughter the biggest chicken later."
