“When he paid back all the loans and bought a house for himself, he was already fifty years old.”

Zhou Yong had already guessed the ending when he heard this: “None of his brother, sister, and nephews care about him?”

When Father Zhou thought of this, he was angry: “When the old man bought the house, his younger brother and sister were not happy. They said he could take turns living in their house and divide the money to his nephews to go to school. Fortunately, the old man finally became smart and felt that he had to have his own house no matter what. So regardless of the opposition of his relatives, he used the money he saved to buy a two-bedroom house with a yard. Because of this, his younger brother and sister cut off their connections with him. When I met him, he haven’t had contact with them for more than ten years.”

Zhou Yong breathed heavily: “A group of white-eyed wolves.”

Father Zhou sighed and said: “That’s right, I think Uncle Zhang is quite pitiful to be all alone. I went to his house to help him with some work every week these years. Uncle Zhang has no pension, and his living allowance is not enough. I quit smoking and drinking alcohol, I saved the money to buy him oil and rice.”

Zhou Yong was sad to hear it: “Dad if you told my mother back then, she would support you in doing this, you don’t have to quit smoking and drinking.”

Father Zhou laughed softly: “Do you think your mother doesn’t know? Every time you want to eat stew pork ribs or braised pork, your mother will keep a small amount of it in the kitchen, which is for Uncle Zhang. Besides, quitting smoking and drinking is also very good. It’s good for health and saves money. A pack of cigarettes is 10 yuan a day, and a small bottle of alcohol is also 10 yuan. It will be gone in 3 days. It costs me 400 yuan a month. How much rice, noodles, oil, and salt can I buy for 400 yuan? Why should I keep wasting that money for nothing!”

Zhou Yong felt warm when he heard it. He always felt that his father was just an ordinary person with little ability. He didn’t expect him to have done good deeds for so many years in obscurity.

But thinking of the hateful nature of the old man’s relatives, Zhou Yong always felt that they would not be willing to hand over the house to others: “The old man’s brother, sister, and nephews didn’t make trouble with you?”

Father Zhou sneered disdainfully: “What’s the use of them making troubles? They didn’t care when their brother is still alive, but they want to divide his property when he died. How can there be such a good thing.”

Looking at the newly released real estate deed in his hand, Zhou’s father felt very complicated. His voice became low again: “In fact, I only learn about this when Uncle Zhang died. He went to the notary office to notarize it by himself last year. After that, the house will be given to me free of charge, and he left a letter of proof at the street office, explaining the situation with his family. It is useless for those relatives of Uncle Zhang to come and make trouble. There is a notarized consent. Besides, I’m not afraid of them making trouble, I will go to the media reporters and talk about what they have done over the years. Let’s see how embarrassing they would be. I can give Uncle Zhang justice by doing this.”

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yong still felt indignant: “How can there be such heartless people in this world! Did they forget how they were able to have careers and houses? If I had known this earlier, it would be better if Uncle Zhang ignore them after graduating in school. He wouldn’t have such a lonely ending.”

When Li Le heard it, he became angry: “I’ve seen many similar things on the major forums. Anyway, I believe that they will have retribution one day for doing so.” Then he turned his head to look at Lin Qingyin. : “Master Lin, don’t you think so?”

At this moment, Lin Qingyin was shaking the ancient coins in her hands and then threw them on the table. After that, she picked them again and nodded in agreement: “You are right, these white-eyed wolves will be punished. Maybe one day they will be struck by lightning.”

When Li Le heard this, he asked: “Master Lin, have you ever seen someone struck by lightning?”
