Chapter 32 Not even the interest
When these words were spoken, not only did the neighbors feel nervous, but Xu Damao also felt a little numb.
If he had said this before today, he might not have taken the words of Li Guoqiang, the sickly man, seriously, but the attack just now made him believe that Li Guoqiang was a madman who dared to exchange his life for his.
Everyone in the hospital knew that Li Guoqiang had gone to the countryside this time and he probably wouldn't live for many more years. Therefore, he must be mentally ill to think of exchanging his life with Li Guoqiang!
Soon, he forced a flattering smile on his face, and then, enduring the stinging pain at the corners of his mouth, he spoke in a humble voice: "Qiangzi, listen to me, what happened today is really a misunderstanding."
"I was deceived. It was that bastard Bang Geng who told me that your family had some unhealthy things hidden. Then I accidentally let it slip in front of Fan Jinyou, and that's how things turned out."
"Look."
Just when Xu Damao was about to shed some blood and settle the matter with Li Guoqiang, Jia Zhang, who was standing behind the crowd, heard that Xu Damao actually put the blame on their precious grandson Banggeng, and she immediately became angry.
"Xu Damao, you are such a bad-hearted person. Don't just talk nonsense. How did our Bang Geng offend you? Why do you want to frame him like this?"
"You're supposed to be my good uncle, right? Has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"
"I'm telling you, if you don't give me a satisfactory explanation today, I'll never let you go!"
Hearing this, Xu Damao got angry and immediately shouted back, "Okay! I want to see how you'll never let me go today."
"And you, Bang Geng, stop hiding behind. Do you dare to stand up and say that this matter has nothing to do with you?"
"Have you forgotten that you told me about this and took five dollars from me?"
"I still remember the serial number on that five-dollar bill. Do you dare to let me search it in front of everyone?"
As soon as he finished speaking, before anyone could eat the melon, Bang Geng suddenly ran out of the archway of the screen wall.
Although he knew that doing so would undoubtedly be a case of trying to cover up one's guilt, he also knew that if he really let Xu Damao find the five dollars hidden in his pocket, he would never be able to wash himself clean even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
When Jia Zhang saw Bang Geng's actions, her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly shouted, "Someone, come here! Everyone, come and take a look! Xu Damao failed to frame the Li family, and now he's trying to frame our Bang Geng!"
"Bang Geng, run quickly and go to the steel mill to find your silly uncle and ask him to come back and seek justice for you. I don't believe that there is anyone in this hospital who can cover up everything with one hand!"
Hearing this, Banggeng immediately changed direction and ran straight towards the gate of the courtyard.
The neighbors, who had originally not believed Xu Damao's words, now stood on Jia Zhang's side and helped her to denounce Xu Damao.
In fact, in the eyes of these neighbors, it doesn’t matter whether Bang Geng did it or not. What matters is that Xu Damao brought outsiders to search Lao Li’s house, which made them feel a sense of crisis.
Although they would not hide anything unhealthy at home, they still had some gold and silver jewelry. If someone found them and pinned the crime on them, they would have no way to do anything.
In addition, with this incident, anyone with an eye could see that Xu Damao wanted to frame them, which made it even more difficult for them to accept.
No one wants to live in fear every day, right?
Xu Damao saw that he had suddenly aroused public anger, and for a moment he couldn't figure out what was going on.
Li Guoqiang saw through everyone's little thoughts at a glance, and immediately shouted angrily: "Alright, if you want to quarrel, go somewhere else. We have to pack up now and don't have the time to entertain you."
"And you, Xu Damao, we are not done yet. Go home and wait patiently. When I finish my housework, I will come to you for a good chat!" "Now, get out of here!"
"Okay, I'll wait for you at home tonight!"
When Xu Damao heard this, he was not angry but happy. He nodded quickly and agreed. Then, before everyone could react, he hurriedly ran out of the compound.
When Jia Zhang saw Xu Damao running away, she immediately ran after him, fearing that Li Guoqiang would ask her to stay.
The other neighbors, seeing that Li Guoqiang and Li Dawei both looked unhappy, naturally had no interest in staying here and being bothered, so they quickly turned around and left.
Li Guoqiang looked at the courtyard that had returned to silence, and slowly exhaled a breath. Then, facing Li Dawei's questioning gaze, he waved his hand and said softly, "Dad, let's clean up the house first! I'll tell you the details of this matter later!"
"Okay! I'll go clean up, you go sit inside and rest for a while!"
Li Dawei looked at the exhausted look on Li Guoqiang's face, quickly swallowed all the questions he wanted to ask, then walked into the house and quietly cleaned up.
Li Guoqiang did not try to show off his strength. He walked into the house very obediently, moved a chair and sat down next to the coal stove to rest.
Everything he had experienced before put a lot of pressure on his mind and body. If he hadn't asked Father Jin to distribute the reward in time, he would have collapsed from exhaustion before Xu Damao fell down.
Looking at the mess in the room, the anger in his heart, which had subsided a little, began to surge violently again.
Then, he quickly thought of how to collect some interest from Xu Damao, Fan Jinyou, Banggeng and others.
As for the beating he had just given Xu Damao, in his opinion it was not even worth the interest.
He planned to wait until he became truly powerful, and then, bit by bit, pay back all the humiliation and pain he had suffered tenfold or a hundredfold. He wanted to make it difficult for Xu Damao, Fan Jinyou, Bang Geng and the others to die!
More than half an hour later, Li Dawei finally tidied up the house. But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw Li Guofu pushing open the door and running in in a hurry with a look of anxiety on his face.
"Dad, brother, are you okay?"
"I just delivered the letter to the entrance of our alley, and I heard that Xu Damao's grandson brought outsiders to frame our family. What's the situation now?"
"boom!"
As soon as he finished speaking, before Li Dawei and Li Guoqiang could react, the door was suddenly pushed open again.
"Lao Li, Xiao Qiang, are you okay?"
"Xiao Qiang, Xiao Qiang, how are you? Are you hurt anywhere? Let me take a look at you quickly!"
"Sister, sister, don't worry, I'm fine, I'm really fine!"
Just as Luo Huijuan was a little flustered, pinching and grabbing Li Guoqiang's body, and then holding Li Guoqiang's face to look at it carefully, Li Guoqiang finally reacted, hurriedly said a word of comfort, and gently pulled Luo Huijuan's hand down.
However, who would have thought that Luo Huijuan immediately reached out and hugged Li Guoqiang's shoulders, then rested her chin on Li Guoqiang's head and burst into tears.
"Woo~ You really scared me to death!"
