Before Yang Ming determined Chen Dazhuang's real intention, he still looked at him coldly.
Seeing that Chen Mengyan didn't speak, Chen Dazhuang thought that she also doubted his identity. He was even more annoyed with Yang Ming. Just now, because of Yang Ming's doubt, Chen Dazhuang was very angry. This is my family's matter. What does it have to do with you?
However, after all, he was now under someone else's roof. He had to lower his head and said patiently, "Mengyan, are you doubting your uncle? This is my ID card, and the photo taken when your dad and mom got married. Look, this is me … This photo can't be fake, right? "
After Chen Mengyan saw the release letter, she no longer doubted Chen Dazhuang's identity. When she saw her parents' wedding photo, she was more sure that the person in front of her was the second uncle who was in prison.
Chen Mengyan breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Second uncle, are you looking for my dad?"
"Yes … but … it's the same no matter who I look for. I can look for you …" Chen Dazhuang nodded quickly.
"Look for me? Why are you looking for me? " Chen Mengyan was somewhat inexplicable. When she was more than one year old, her second uncle was sentenced to prison. Since then, there had been no contact. If he said that he was looking for her father, it was possible. But looking for her, it seemed unlikely, right?
"That … I just got out of prison. I have no place to go and no money in my hands …" Chen Dazhuang's original position in the company wasn't low. He was also a person who could respond to a call. Otherwise, it was impossible to have access to so much money. However, as the prison wore him down, he lost his original sharpness and arrogance. Although he still had some backbone, in order to survive, he had to lower his head to his niece.
After a long time, Yang Ming finally understood that the person in front of him was here to borrow money! He suddenly said with some displeasure, "You just got out of prison. You should go home. Uncle Chen and aunty aren't here … You should come back another day."
Yang Ming knew that Chen Mengyan was not the kind of person who liked to reject others, so he could only be the bad guy. However, Yang Ming was not a heartless person. The key problem was that the matter was not clear yet. Chen Fei was lying in the hospital. How could Chen Mengyan decide to lend the money herself?
In fact, Chen Mengyan also wanted to refuse. After all, although the person in front of her was her uncle in name, they were basically not related by blood. Her parents were from Chen Village, and almost everyone in the village had the surname Chen. In terms of relatives, she could make some connections with each other. She didn't know where this Chen Dazhuang came from.
"You …" Chen Dazhuang was a little annoyed. He wanted to say that this had nothing to do with her, but he resisted and didn't say it. If it weren't for the desperate situation, Chen Dazhuang wouldn't come to borrow money. After calming down his mood with difficulty, Chen Dazhuang said, "My wife and I divorced. She took the child and went with another man … I have nowhere to go now … Niece, lend me some money. When I find a job in the future, I will definitely return it to you …"
"This …" Chen Mengyan was very kind. When she heard Chen Dazhuang say it so pitifully, she immediately felt compassion.
Yang Ming also frowned. This person didn't seem to be lying. From his tone and expression, Chen Dazhuang seemed to be completely forced to do this.
"How much do you want?" asked Yang Ming.
"Ah?" Chen Dazhuang was stunned. Just now, Yang Ming strongly opposed to giving him money. Now, it was Yang Ming who asked him how much money he wanted. This made Chen Dazhuang somewhat unable to respond. After a long time, he said, "Three … three hundred … Is that okay?"
On the first day Chen Dazhuang was released from prison, he found that the outside world had changed dramatically. Especially the prices, which were much more expensive than before. The tofu pudding that used to cost three cents now cost two yuan. The sesame seed cake that used to cost five cents for three now cost eight cents.
Therefore, the minimum standard for Chen Dazhuang's meal became three yuan, which was about ten yuan a day. Chen Dazhuang calculated that even if he slept at the train station or the bus station every night, he would need about three hundred yuan for a month's meal.
Three hundred? Yang Ming was stunned. He thought that Chen Dazhuang would ask for tens of thousands of yuan. He didn't expect that he only asked for three hundred yuan. It seemed that he was really forced to borrow money because he had no other choice.
Yang Ming took out his wallet and counted out a thousand yuan from it. He handed it to Chen Dazhuang and said, "Take it. Rent a cheaper house, and then find a job."
Chen Dazhuang looked at the banknotes handed by Yang Ming and was stunned. He didn't expect his niece's boyfriend to be so generous. He just took out a thousand yuan! In fact, he was sentenced to ten years because of twenty thousand yuan. He could be released early because he worked well in prison and the result was reduced. Of course, it was also because of Chen Fei's face. With Chen Fei's promotion, the prison also took care of Chen Dazhuang.
"Thank you, thank you …" Chen Dazhuang said quickly.
"We can help you once, but we can't help you for a lifetime. In the future, you have to rely on yourself." Yang Ming waved his hand and said, "This money is not in a hurry to return. Now the policy is much better than before. You can do some small business. Set up a stall in the night market or something … "
"Okay, I will work hard and not cause trouble for others …" Chen Dazhuang nodded heavily. He didn't expect Yang Ming to be so young. What he said was very reasonable. The previous bad impression disappeared.
After Chen Dazhuang left, Chen Mengyan took out the key and opened the door. Then, she entered the house with Yang Ming.
"Yang Ming, can you not tell my mother about this? I don't want her to be distracted by other things. "Chen Mengyan hesitated for a while and said.
She didn't know whether it was right or wrong for her and Yang Ming to borrow money from Chen Dazhuang, so she didn't want to tell her family for the time being.
"This kind of small matter doesn't matter." Yang Ming smiled. He didn't care about the one thousand yuan. The most important thing was that Chen Dazhuang could go on the right path in the future. He thought that Chen Dazhuang's matter was over, but he didn't expect to see him again after some time.
"Well …" Chen Mengyan nodded. Looking at the empty house, she was silent.
"Then I'll go back first. You have a good rest. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning …" Yang Ming looked at the time. It was getting late, so he said.
"Ah …" Chen Mengyan stood up and looked at Yang Ming. "Can you … not go?"
"Not go?" Yang Ming looked at Chen Mengyan. Could it be that it was another signal? However, Chen Mengyan had such a thing going on in her family. Did she still have the mind to think about other things?
Seeing Yang Ming's somewhat ambiguous eyes, Chen Mengyan blushed and explained, "Just … simply accompany me … don't think too much …"
"Oh, I'm not thinking too much." Yang Ming shook his head and said seriously.

Xia Xue drove the car and looked at Zhao, who was sitting in the front passenger seat. His face was still pale, and she sighed helplessly. Xia Xue didn't believe in ghosts, but Zhao didn't graduate from the police academy. He was just a driver in charge of driving.
"Zhao, what you saw shouldn't be a ghost, but someone deliberately pretending to be a ghost." Xia Xue comforted.
"Sister Xia, although I also told myself not to think about it, the situation at the time was really scary!" Zhao took a breath and said, "That person's brain was half gone …"
Little Zhao described the appearance of that thing in detail. Even if Xia Xue was bold, she still had goosebumps all over her body. Just as she was about to open her mouth to persuade him again, her phone rang again.
She glanced at the caller ID. It was a small police number. It should be someone from the internal system.
"Hello, I'm Xia Xue from the Criminal Investigation Team." Xia Xue picked up the phone.
"Captain Xia, I'm Zhao Dongxing from the Traffic Police West City Detachment!" said the person on the other side of the phone.
"Captain Zhao, what's the matter?" asked Xia Xue.
"There was a traffic accident on Shatong Road in the west of the city …" said Zhao Dongxing.
"Traffic accident? Captain Zheng, why are you telling me this? "Xia Xue was responsible for criminal investigation, not traffic.
"The situation is a bit strange. It's somewhat similar to the car accident of Captain Chen just now …" Zhao Dongxing hesitated. "According to the taxi driver behind, he saw a ghost … I think this should be a criminal case …"
"What!" Xia Xue was shocked and quickly said, "You wait for me. I'll be right there. Shatong Road, right?"
After hanging up the phone, Xia Xue quickly turned the car around and drove to Shatong Road in the west of the city. Zhao in the car was also a little excited. "Sister Xia, look, I didn't lie …"
At night, the car was very quiet, so Zhao also heard Zhao Dongxing's words clearly.
Xia Xue nodded, and her expression became a little dignified. If the car accident over there was also caused by this, then this criminal was really rampant. He had just committed a crime in the south of the city, and now he went to the west of the city to commit a crime.
The scene of the car accident had been isolated, and the taxi driver who witnessed it did not let him leave for the time being.
The scene was very miserable. A heavy truck overturned into the roadside ditch, and the driver died on the spot. Behind the truck was a taxi. The taxi driver's reaction was quite quick, so he escaped.
According to the taxi driver, he saw a ghost at that time. Xia Xue found the taxi driver and asked in detail about the situation at the time. As a result, the image of the ghost described by the taxi driver was exactly the same as what Zhao saw!
It could be seen that Zhao did not have an illusion, but he really saw something …
Xia Xue couldn't make up her mind, so she directly called Chief Wang …

Yang Ming hugged Chen Mengyan and squeezed on the small bed in her room.
"Why did you want to go back to Heavenly Earth before this?" Yang Ming knew that Chen Mengyan was not asleep, so he suddenly asked.
