You have the right not to speak.

Hearing this, Li Zhi's body trembled violently again. He stared at him in amazement, his face flushed, and he was filled with shame and anger.

The third uncle angrily yelled, "Call the police. I'll make a phone call."

Li Zhi was so scared that he fell to his knees and said, "Don't call the police, don't call the police, I really know I was wrong, please give me another chance." His voice was tearful and his face was full of fear and regret.

Haihua was unmoved, "Isn't it enough that I gave you the chance? You don't cherish it! And you're wasting my time and wasting it with you!"

Cousin Zhiwen stopped his third uncle who was about to make a phone call, "Dad, don't worry." He turned his head and looked at Li Zhi, "Then tell me, how are you going to make us trust you this time?"

Li Zhi said in a panic: "I, I can transfer the house to you first, and then find a way to raise money."

Haihua glared at him, "Do you think this will solve the problem?"

Li Zhi waved his hands quickly, "No, no, no, I can also write an IOU, put my fingerprints on it, and promise to pay you back on time."

...

Cousin Zhiwen thought for a moment and raised the IOU in his hand, "Okay, pay it back in three installments within 10 days. We are also very busy and don't have time to talk nonsense with you. We will trust you again this time, but if you dare to play tricks again, don't blame us for being rude."

Li Zhi nodded repeatedly as if he had been pardoned. "Of course, of course. Please trust me this time. My wife and children are here. They can't run away. I'm going back to the house to pack up and transfer the ownership tomorrow morning."

After everyone left, cousin Zhiwen and Haihua stayed in the room. Haihua looked at his cousin with some concern, "Do you really think he can change?"

Cousin Zhiwen sighed softly, "Let's take it one step at a time. I hope he can really wake up."

Lawyer Liu Jianfeng rushed back and was happy to hear the result: "Okay, wait for Li Zhi to bring the property certificate over, and I'll accompany you to transfer the ownership tomorrow."

He looked at the IOU again and analyzed, "We still have to collect the money as soon as possible. We will report it to the police the second time we collect it. It doesn't matter whether we collect the rest of the money or not. The most important thing is to send him to prison so that this matter can be completed. Otherwise, the Chen family will not be able to raise their heads. This incident will be a warning to the Chen family. It will be better for the future development of your Chen family. Otherwise, another traitor like Li Zhi will pop up and it will be annoying to death."

Haihua did not answer but asked: "Do you want to keep the house?"

Lawyer Liu Jianfeng paused for a moment and said, "As for this house, it depends on your actual needs and situation. If it has a good location and has room for appreciation, it's not a bad idea to keep it; but if it's of no use to you, cashing it out is also a good option."

Cousin Zhiwen frowned and thought, "This really needs to be carefully considered."

Haihua seemed a little conflicted. "If I keep it, will there be trouble in the future? After all, it's Li Zhi's house. So many IOUs?"

Lawyer Liu Jianfeng smiled and said, "Don't worry about that. As long as the transfer procedures are legal and compliant, there will be no problem. However, you still have to consider your own financial situation and future plans."

Zhiwen said, "I think it's better to cash it out. I feel at ease after getting the money. Thinking about his mistresses is disgusting."

Everyone fell into another discussion. Cousin Zhiwen looked at this and that, and was at a loss as to what to do.

Haihua walked to the window, looked at the scenery outside, and murmured to himself: "This is really a difficult problem."

During this tangled discussion, cousin Zhiwen and Haihua occasionally met each other's eyes, and an indescribable tacit understanding flowed between the two. They both knew that no matter what the final decision was, they would support each other.

On the day of Xi's visit, he inspected the house again and handed over the keys. Li Zhi then went through the transfer procedures with Haihua. Li Zhi also sent 1 yuan in cash and still owed 3 yuan, which seemed to be a sincere desire to reconcile.

Haihua also called his grandfather right away. He originally thought he was owed 9500 yuan, but he was very satisfied with getting back a house that was not worth much and 1 yuan in cash. But he felt relieved only after Li Zhi was sent to prison. His great-grandmother thought so too. They were all angry after being deceived by a fake for so long.

As for how to divide the money, Grandpa was only willing to take back 5000 yuan in cash, and let Haihua deal with the rest on his own. He also kindly reminded him that he still owed yuan. Seeing him go from being overjoyed to gritting his teeth, everyone was amused by him.

With the remaining 8000 yuan, Haihua first paid off the 200 yuan expenses for hiring someone for his third uncle, and then divided the money between his third uncle's family of five and himself, with 500 yuan each. Lawyer Liu Jianfeng's legal fees totaled 300 yuan, and he gave him another 200 yuan privately to make up the total 500 yuan.

Wei Tianxian was rewarded 80 yuan and Sister Lan was rewarded 30 yuan.

As for the benefactor Lu Yougui, Haihua and his cousin Zhiwen drove their motorcycles to visit him again at noon, bought a lot of pork and gave him 300 yuan in cash. Upon hearing this result, Lu Yougui's family of four were also very sad and happy. When they learned that his two children had both given birth to two babies, they gave him another 100 yuan and let them divide it among themselves. This old case of a life-saving benefactor who was accidentally saved by someone else has finally been brought off the screen.

Seeing him come back, he counted the bills with a sad face and wrote down the remaining 3790 yuan. The third aunt winked at the third uncle and said, "Xiaohua, you can use the remaining 2000 yuan to pay off the debt."

Haihua shook her head: "Aunt, the 2000 yuan will probably not be recovered. Grandma told me to report to the police. Uncle, you are the eldest of the Chen family. Come with me to find Grandpa Wei and ask him to help us report to the police. We will have the case heard as soon as possible. Then I will go back to Kyoto with Lawyer Liu Jianfeng. He is a big lawyer and he wants to take on cases to make a lot of money."

After preparing all the information, the third uncle immediately drove his precious three-truck and the four of them rushed to the Wei family in Zhuangyuan Village. Wei Qianqian also followed to the police station out of curiosity.

The police station chief Yang Feng personally received them: "Brother Wei, what brings you here?" He extended his hand and the two shook hands.

Wei Zhixun walked into the room with steady steps, quickly scanned the surroundings, and slowly sat down in a brightly lit spot near the window. He leaned forward slightly, looked at Director Yang opposite with a firm and sincere look, and said, "Director Yang, I'm really sorry to bother you. I really have something important to ask of you this time! The hotel run by an old comrade of mine was robbed, and the loss was heavy! So I came here to ask you, an experienced and capable detective, to help us catch that hateful 'big rat'!"

Seeing this, the third uncle who was sitting nearby also stood up hurriedly, and respectfully handed a thick stack of information and related documents to Director Yang with both hands, and added very politely: "Director Yang, this is all the evidence and relevant information. In addition, I want to complain to you that the unscrupulous citizen named Li Zhi was so bold as to take away more than 2,000 yuan in cash from my family! This amount of money is not a small amount for us. I hope you can do justice for us and help us recover this hard-earned money! Please!" As he said this, the third uncle bowed deeply, his face full of anxiety and expectation.

Director Yang quickly scanned the handwritten petition, and then stared at every word on it, as if he wanted to see the truth behind it. Then, he picked up the ID card next to him and looked at it carefully, with a serious and focused expression on his face.

After a while, Director Yang raised his head, looked at the person in front of him with firm eyes, and said solemnly: "Comrade Chen Guicai, your Chen family has decided to return to your hometown to revitalize the village and are willing to invest. This is a great achievement! We have a clear understanding of these black sheep who disrupt social order and undermine rural development. Don't worry, we will never condone their evil deeds, and will definitely punish them severely in accordance with the law and give you a satisfactory explanation! Please believe in the ability and determination of our police!" After speaking, Director Yang patted his chest vigorously to express his high attention and responsible attitude towards this matter.

The third uncle was flattered, but he said in a low voice, "Captain Yang, we still owe him 2000 yuan, so there's no need to sentence him too harshly. We still have to wait for him to compensate us before we can eat meat. I'm just a peasant, so I don't know if I can say this."

Yang Feng patted him on the shoulder and said in a cheerful voice: "Comrade Guicai, I understand that there must be a process. Can you go home and wait patiently?"

After he finished speaking, he once again cast his eyes on the energetic young people, and then slowly picked up a whole box of red apples that exuded an alluring aroma. His movements were gentle and skillful, as if he was treating these apples with great care as if they were precious treasures. Then, he began to distribute apples to each young person one by one, ensuring that everyone could get their own share of sweetness and care.

When it was Wei Qianqian's turn, he stopped what he was doing and stared at her pretty face, with a gentle light in his eyes. He asked softly, "Xiao Qianqian, I want to ask you, will the cram school you opened still be in operation next year?"

Wei Qianqian nodded slightly, and replied affirmatively: "Director Yang, if nothing special happens, it will probably be opened as usual. After all, this cram school is very important and beneficial to many children!" As she spoke, her bright big eyes revealed determination and confidence, which made people respect her.

Yang Feng nodded, then turned to the Chen family and said, "Okay, you can go back after signing the acceptance form. Remember to leave a valid phone number that can be reached."

Third uncle nodded repeatedly, "Okay, Director Yang, then we will go back and wait for news."

After saying that, the third uncle turned and left, followed by his cousins ​​Zhiwen and Haihua. Seeing that the matter was settled, the two granddaughters of the Wei family rode their motorcycles home first.

Along the way, Third Uncle frowned and kept muttering, "I don't know how long I have to wait for this, alas."

Cousin Zhiwen comforted him, "Third Uncle, since Director Yang has said so, we should believe him. There will always be a result."

Haihua also agreed: "Yes, there is no point in worrying now, let's go back and think about our future plans."

When they got home, Third Uncle sat on a chair and sighed. Cousin Zhiwen and Haihua looked at each other, and they both felt heavy in their hearts.
