Chapter 260: I really have to thank you today

The one who was more anxious than her was Ji Pianran, but unfortunately, Tangtang was sound asleep in her arms.

She was afraid that if she left like this, the little guy would wake up again.

But she was really worried about Gu Chen.

Watching him being pushed and shoved, her heart was about to jump out of her chest!

She anxiously looked over at Shen Cuizhi, who was getting out of the car.

'Mom, please look after Tangtang for me.'

After saying this, she placed Tangtang on the seat, pulled open the door and got out of the car.

Before Shen Cuizhi could even close the car door, Ji Pianran had already walked two metres away.

Looking at Ji Pianran's hurried back, she was anxious, but there was nothing she could do. She could only sit in the back seat with patience.

After all, she is her granddaughter, and she was afraid that the child would wake up and cry if she couldn't see anyone.

Ji Pianran got out of the car and hurried over to the crowd.

When she saw her coming, Gu Chen wasn't in a hurry, but when she saw Ji Pianran coming, her heart suddenly became nervous.

'If you want money, don't mess around!' he said.

Hearing that someone was going to pay, no one in the crowd made a scene anymore, they just wanted money.

They were all from the same village, so who wanted to make things so unpleasant?

'You can pay?' An uncertain voice came from the crowd.

As soon as these words were uttered, everyone became curious.

'Yes, if you can pay now, we'll leave immediately and promise never to come again.'

'Yes, yes.'

Ji Pianran looked at these people, each one of them looking menacing.

Fearing that these people would do something to Gu Chen again, she immediately stood in front of him.

'You, you don't move, I promise to give you every penny.'

She was a little nervous when she spoke, and her expression was very awkward. She obviously hadn't encountered this kind of thing before and was scared.

There were no street lamps in the countryside, so it was pitch black, except for the faint and dim light cast from the house.

Looking at the frail figure in front of him, trembling and protecting himself, Gu Chen was really moved.

But despite the emotion, he still had to pay back the money first.

He reached out and pulled Ji Pianran behind him.

Then he said to the group, 'Pay up, now. I'll give you the money, but you have to write me a receipt. That way, everyone's happy.'

Gu Chen didn't know any of these people, and he had no idea if they were good people or not.

To be on the safe side, it was best to write a receipt.

If he gave them the money today, and then they came to his house again tomorrow when he was gone in Huacheng,

that would be a real problem.

Hearing that a receipt was needed, Gu He hurriedly turned around and went into the house to get paper and pen.

To be honest, he was also annoyed by these people.

Now that Gu He could repay the money, naturally he was fully cooperative.

Gu He looked at the group of people who were still whispering.

He shouted, 'Everyone line up and speak one by one. I will give the money one by one!'

Hearing that they really had to pay, the people who were still noisy just now instantly formed a long line.

'Gu Zhigang cheated me out of 3,000 yuan!' said the first person in line.

Ji Pianran was blocked by Gu Chen and couldn't see the person in front of her, so she had to reach behind her and gently poke him, and quietly pass the 10,000 yuan she had in her arms behind his back.

Gu Chen felt helpless and amused as he looked at the pale hand that had reached out from the side of his body.

His daughter-in-law is really cute.

Gu Chen took the money, counted 3,000 yuan and then looked at the man's face.

'Here's your money, but I still have to say something. My brother didn't cheat you, he just wanted to make money with you. Now he's gone to the city and hasn't come back yet. You've taken the money, so this matter is settled. In the future, don't talk nonsense when you go out.'

Multi-level marketing is, to put it bluntly, a way to cheat one person after another, but the cheaters don't even know they're cheating.

They all think they're fighting for money, but they're just going about it the wrong way.

Gu Chen said this because he was thinking about the future.

Gu Zhigang will still come back, and he will have to live in the village. If everyone calls him a liar, then he will really have a hard time in the future.

Just like he did back then, he would be talked about as an idler, a good-for-nothing, and a bum wherever he went.

For this reason, Ji Pianran and Tang Tang have both received a lot of dirty looks.

His brother cares about his reputation, unlike himself, who doesn't care at all.

His sister-in-law is even less able to do what Ji Pianran does.

If everyone in the village really talked about Gu Zhigang, I guess his sister-in-law would have to divorce him.

Gu Chen really doesn't want to see that day.

Upon hearing this, the person across the street nodded.

He said simply, 'Fine, as long as you pay, I won't tell.'

At the beginning, she also voluntarily gave the money to Gu Zhigang. She originally wanted to make money, but now that this kind of thing has happened, it can only be said that both parties are responsible.

It is already considered lucky to be able to get the money back.

What else is there to say?

Seeing that he had agreed, Gu Chen handed over the 3,000 yuan.

'Go to my second brother's place to write a receipt.'

At this time, Gu He had already taken paper and pen and came out of the house.

Hearing Gu Chen say this, he hurriedly handed over the notebook and pen.

Seeing that the man had taken the money, everyone felt much more at ease, and they stopped arguing and lined up obediently.

'Mine, mine is 500!'

Gu Chen counted 500 yuan and handed it to him. 'Write the receipt and you can go.'

'Mine is 1,500!'

'Mine, mine is 600!'

'Mine is 300!'

Gu Chen gave the money to each one and told them to write the receipt.

Half an hour later, they finally sent everyone away.

Looking at the empty doorway, the three of them let out a collective sigh of relief.

Gu He couldn't help but feel like he had survived a disaster.

He looked at Gu Chen gratefully, 'Chen'er, thanks to you, you came back just in time. You couldn't have seen it just now, these people wanted to eat me alive.'

Gu Chen reached out and patted Gu He on the shoulder, reassuring him, 'It's fine, let's go inside and talk.'

Seeing that no one was around, Shen Cuizhi quickly picked up her sleeping daughter-in-law and carried her into the house.

She went towards the bedroom.

At this moment, Gu Hang was sitting at the dining table, holding his second grandson in his arms.

To be honest, he had heard the commotion outside the door just now, but there was no way he could go out. His second daughter-in-law couldn't stand the noise either, and went back to her parents' house with Gu He Dazhao in the evening.

He had to entertain his second son's grandson.

It was noisy outside.

The child was scared and kept asking if he would be taken away by the bad guys.

As a grandfather, he felt heartbroken.

The more he felt heartbroken about his young grandson, the more he hated his eldest son.

This good-for-nothing, how could he have caused such a big mess? The two old people kept quiet, but as parents, they couldn't help but feel that their second son had also been unable to live a peaceful life because of him!

It's really a rat's excrement spoiling the pot of soup!

Luckily, Gu Chen is back, otherwise if the second son is beaten up again, he will really be driven to his grave.

Seeing Gu Chen come in, Gu Hang sighed with helplessness in his eyes.

'Chen'er, I really have to thank you today.'
