Siheyuan: The wife pays off the husband's debt, Huairu's mentality collapses

Seeing that He Yuzhu was so determined to seek justice for him, Yan Bugui secretly breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement, "Yes, Yuzhu is right. I meant well but did something bad. I didn't expect to end up like this."

"Sumu, you have to understand my old age. I can't let my hard-earned money go to waste!"

Seeing this, He Yuzhu became more resolute in his position. He patted Yan Bugui on the shoulder to comfort him, then turned to face Su Mu. His expression became serious and he smacked his lips, as if paving the way for his next words.

"Sumu, look at Uncle Three. He paid for you out of his own pocket, but he was cheated by those scammers and is now feeling unwell."

"Tell me, how can you treat an elder who is really helping you like this? You are throwing dirty water on Uncle Three!"

Su Mu listened to He Yuzhu's accusations and smiled.

He Yuzhu really will not miss any opportunity to show himself, nor will he miss any opportunity to make a fool of himself.

At this time, Yan Bugui saw this and secretly rejoiced in his heart, but pretended to be helpless and aggrieved on his face, and sighed softly: "Zhu Zi, you don't know, I have no choice. After all, Su Mu is a colleague in our factory. I will help him if I can."

"But I didn't expect that this world is so dangerous that even an old man like me was almost deceived."

As he spoke, he gently wiped away the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve. His acting skills were so superb that one could not help but admire him.

He Yuzhu was even more indignant when he heard this. He stared at Su Mu with wide eyes, as if he wanted to see through him with his eyes:

"Sumu, listen to what the Third Master said. Who is he doing this for? Now you are not only not grateful, but also want to default on your debt. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"

Su Mu stood there, a faint smile on his lips, his eyes flashing with an imperceptible light.

The play has reached its climax, and it's time for me to take the stage.

So, he spoke slowly, his voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly: "Zhu Zi, Third Uncle, I understand your feelings, but we must always be reasonable in everything."

"This deposit was originally the public funds I applied for to purchase pork for the factory. If I easily gave the money to the third uncle and the pork disappeared, wouldn't I be charged with embezzlement of public funds? I can't bear this responsibility."

As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings suddenly became quiet. Everyone looked at each other, seeming to realize the seriousness of the problem.

"Well, come to think of it, although this uncle usually likes to take advantage of others, this time he took the initiative to pay for Su Mu, which is really unexpected."

"Yes, it's not easy to find someone so kind-hearted these days. But then again, if the money is really gone, Uncle San will be heartbroken for a long time."

"That's right. We all know the situation of the Third Uncle's family. We have to be careful with every penny. With so much money coming out at once, I'm afraid we'll have to tighten our belts to make ends meet."

"That being said, Sumu also has his own difficulties. After all, this money is public money. If something goes wrong, it will be difficult for him to explain."

"Yes, that's true. I think we should find a middleman to talk to both sides and see if we can find a compromise."

"Yes, yes, find a respected elder to mediate, maybe there will be a good result."

"Speaking of which, an old man in our hospital is quite suitable. He is knowledgeable, fair and selfless. There will be no problem letting him preside over justice."

"Yes, yes, yes, let's find an uncle! We need to tell him about this right away and let him give us some advice."

As these conversations intertwined, the atmosphere in the yard became more solemn.

Yan Bugui's face also turned ugly.

I didn't expect Su Mu to say that, and I didn't expect that the plan I carefully designed would backfire on me.

When He Yuzhu heard Su Mu's words, his face instantly turned gloomy.

He was not a man who could easily swallow his anger, not to mention that he now felt that he was being tricked by Su Mu.

He sneered, his voice was full of disdain and threat:

"Sumu, you say that so easily. Third Uncle got into this situation just to help you, and now you are trying to shirk responsibility."

"Aren't you afraid of being criticized for being ungrateful?"

Hearing this, Su Mu sneered even more. He slowly took a step forward, looking directly at He Yuzhu, and said with an unquestionable firmness: "Zhuzi, I respect you as a person, but don't use morality to hold me hostage."

"I always do things with a clear conscience. You said that the Third Master was trying to help me, but you have to see if this help is really helpful."

"The current situation is that I cannot use public funds at will, and I cannot get myself into more trouble because of momentary sympathy."

Having said that, Su Mu changed the subject, swept his gaze across everyone present, and finally landed on He Yuzhu.

"Didn't you say you were going to help Uncle San take the documents to the intersection ahead to wait for the pork? Why are you wasting your breath talking to me now?"

"Or do you just want to take this opportunity to embarrass me?"

He Yuzhu's face turned pale and blue after hearing Su Mu's words.

I didn't expect Su Mu to expose my little thoughts so directly.

But he was a man who cared about his reputation after all, so he suppressed his unhappiness and replied calmly, "Who said I won't go? I'm going now, I want to see where those liars can run to!"

Having said that, he took the document in his hand and ran towards the intersection ahead without looking back.

Yan Bugui looked at He Yuzhu's receding back, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

He hoped that He Yuzhu could help him get the pork back and recover his losses; but he was also worried that the truth would be revealed and his lies would be exposed.

At this moment, he could only place all his hopes on He Yuzhu and pray for a miracle to happen.

Su Mu stood there with a faint smile on his face and a gleam of wisdom in his eyes.

When Yan Bugui saw Su Mu preparing to leave, he became anxious and quickly reached out to stop him, with a flustered and determined tone in his voice:

"Sumu, you can't leave! You must compensate me for the 1000 yuan and wait for Zhuzi to come back and give you an explanation!"

His eyes were full of anxiety and unwillingness, as if all his hopes would be shattered once Su Mu left.

Su Mu stopped and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He turned around slowly, his eyes flashing with calmness and wisdom: "Okay, Third Uncle, I'll wait."

His tone was calm and firm, as if he had already seen through Yan Bugui's tricks.
