Chapter 240: Chapter 148: Gaining Influence through Virtue (Added for the “Most Innocent” Alliance Leader)
Smack!
Along with the brick falling, Zhou Wang’s hand shook.
He twitched the corner of his mouth and then withdrew his hand expressionlessly.
Still lacking a bit of experience… Damn, that hurt!
But anyhow, Zhou Wang achieved his goal.
Accompanied by the piercing sound of an alarm, scolding and chaotic footsteps clearly erged from the previously silent house of the Zhao family.
“Zhou Wang, you, you…”
Except for Zhou Wang’s little cousin clapping her hands, the adults were stunned. Even Zhao Guilin, who had been shouting about throwing the brick inside, beca a bit flustered.
No, dear nephew, uncle was just putting on a show… Why did you play it for real!
“Zhou Wang…”
“No worries, Dad, Mom, leave this to .”
Zhou Wang appeared to be the calst of all; just as he waved his hand, the gate of Zhao’s house was pushed open, and two n and a woman ran out together.
One man looked older, around seventy years, yet he seed incredibly strong, which made Zhou Wang sigh a bit.
Even though they were of the sa generation, his grandfather had been an honest man all his life, selling stationery and candies to children in the mountains, riding a horse-drawn carriage for a whole day to earn just a few dis or a couple of dollars, which left him with many ailnts, and he passed away before turning seventy…
This Zhao guy didn’t seem like a good person, yet he looked as vigorous as ever…
Quite ironic.
The man following Zhao was probably one of his many sons, with a car key for a TANK dangling from his waist, obviously the owner of this Tank 300.
The woman should be his wife or soone like that, holding an unpeeled apple in her hand.
Zhao and his son rushed in front of the Tank 300. Upon seeing that large broken window and the brick still “welded” to it, their faces imdiately changed.
The car was bought less than half a year ago, and it had never suffered even a scratch, let alone damage like this.
“Zhao Guilin, did you just smash my car, you son of a bitch?!”
Zhao’s son’s eyes turned red instantly as he started looking around, seemingly searching for sothing to fight Zhao Guilin with.
Even though it wasn’t Zhao Guilin who smashed the car, as an uncle, he shouldn’t push everything onto his nephew, so he imdiately retorted, “Zhao Deli, so what if I smashed your car, you bastard parked it at my doorstep just waiting for to smash it, didn’t you?”
“Right, and you all pretended not to hear when we knocked on your door earlier, what, suddenly your ears are working now?”
Zhou Wang’s third aunt’s husband sneered as well.
“All these years, haven’t you ever felt ashad? My father endured enough when he was alive; now you still co to bully our family, do you think we don’t have tempers at all?”
What drew Zhou Wang’s attention was that his mother, Zhao Guihua, had also awakened her “feisty” trait, rolling up her sleeves and stepping forward to scold.
Watching everyone bickering into a ss, Zhou Wang felt a bit helpless.
But he knew it was a part of rural life, regardless of reason, a strong voice was necessary at these tis.
Generally, “a reason isn’t in the loud voice,” but in a rural environnt where there isn’t much room for logic, “a loud voice is the reason.”
A household where the wives could argue loudly was seen as capable in others’ eyes…
As things got louder here, more people rushed up the slope, Zhou Wang took a glance, and well, the whole family really ca out…
His eldest uncle, second aunt, third aunt, younger aunt, and her husband all showed up.
In contrast, the three mbers of the Zhao family seed inadequate.
Both Zhao and his second son, Zhao Deli, beca a bit hostile. Although Zhao Deli grabbed a branch, he kept retreating under his wife’s tugs.
Zhao pointed at the crowd angrily, “Fine, you’re gloating because of your numbers… I’ll make a call, let’s see who has more people!”
“Second son, call your elder brother and all of them back!”
“Zhao Guilin, you’re in trouble, this isn’t over today, see how I’ll deal with you!”
Zhao Deli also pointed at Zhou Wang’s younger uncle and shouted.
Seeing it was about ti, Zhou Wang pulled his younger uncle, who still wanted to say sothing, and stepped forward, “Zhao Deli, right? I was the one who smashed your car.”
“You…” Zhao Deli was taken aback, frowning and looking at Zhou Wang.
“My na is Zhou Wang, Zhao Guihua is my mom.”
Zhou Wang first stated his identity, then politely asked, “Today is my grandma’s birthday, I don’t want to make a big scene, so… Uncle, can you please move your car?”
“You little brat, acting all high and mighty here?”
Zhao Deli sneered imdiately, “I don’t care who smashed the car, it’s all on your family, and you damn well want to move the car, are you crazy or am I?”
“Alright.”
Zhou Wang nodded, then suddenly asked Miao Ying nearby, “Ying Tao, do you know how much it would cost to repair this window?”
Miao Ying glanced at the window’s material, and without much thought, said, “Materials cost eight hundred to a thousand, labor might be around two hundred.”
“That’s pretty cheap.”
Zhou Wang nodded, then reached out to Jiang Qingkui.
Jiang Qingkui, who was well prepared, imdiately took out a bundle of money from her bag and handed it to Zhou Wang.
The money was tied up, an even ten thousand.
