Sister-in-law comes for treatment

Chapter 982 I'm Going to Play Cards

The man stood up, like a superior senior pointing at a young man about to enter the industry, and said in a condescending tone: "What do you mean? The other bosses and I are sitting in the yard. What right do you have to come in?"

Besides, even if we were to go inside, it wouldn't be your turn. Any one of us could easily have a larger company and greater resources than yours.

If we're really talking about merit, you're not qualified to enter this courtyard.

Hurry up and go, I'll count to three.

Leave this courtyard.

1～”

Wang Tiezhu was completely confused. He had to be strong to enter this courtyard? Was this still the same courtyard where he had lived since childhood?

After being away for three days, everything feels unfamiliar.

He even suspected that he was still sleeping at Sister Xia's house, and that he was just having a dream, in which... whatever happened, no matter how absurd it was.

All of this is understandable.

It's just a dream, after all.

"2~"

The man held up two fingers and said, "If you still stand there and don't move, I've already counted to two. If you don't leave, you'll face the consequences."

I'm going to count to three.

3～”

Wang Tiezhu frowned and remained silent, wanting to see what kind of dream this was and what he wanted to do.

The man flew into a rage: "Fine, very well, you're not leaving, huh? Then don't blame me for being impolite!"

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and walked towards Wang Tiezhu.

It looked like they were about to start a fight.

Wang Tiezhu frowned, never expecting that in his dream he would be bullied at home.

He instinctively clenched his fists, preparing to fight back.

Just then, a voice called out from the doorway: "Tiezhu...you're finally back."

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Wang Tiezhu didn't turn around but replied, "Mom, come inside first and don't come out. I have something to take care of."

Even in a dream.

He didn't want his mother to get hurt in the process of the two of them fighting.

Zhang Xia frowned as she walked out of the room, complaining, "What have you been doing for the past three days? While you were away, these bosses came to our house every day waiting for us."

There wasn't enough room inside, so everyone sat in the courtyard.

She refused to leave no matter what.

three days?

Wang Tiezhu was stunned. It seemed that this was not a dream. He had indeed stayed at Sister Xia's house for three days. In a dream, the timing could not match up so perfectly.

The man stopped in his tracks. Hearing Wang Tiezhu call Zhang Xia "Mom," his expression changed drastically. He was first shocked, then somewhat embarrassed, and finally chuckled and apologized, "Mr. Wang... Oh dear, it's a misunderstanding, purely a misunderstanding..."

I consider you to be one of me.

I'm sorry, ignorance is no excuse, please don't take offense.

Wang Tiezhu's face turned ashen. This was his own home, yet he was being driven away so rudely and unreasonably.

We need to count to three.

If they don't leave, we'll take action.

He was extremely disgusted by such people. When they came over to shake hands, he would raise his hand to drive them away, saying, "Go away, don't come over to shake hands, I don't know you."

Please leave my house.

The man bowed slightly, a fawning smile on his face, and said, "Mr. Wang, please don't be angry. This is the first time I've met you. I didn't know it was you. Otherwise, I would have dared to do it even if I had a thousand lives."

We wouldn't dare let you leave.

Please don't be angry. I sincerely apologize to you here.

Wang Tiezhu waved his hand: "Go away, please leave. I don't know you, and I don't want to see you in my house."

The man continued to apologize shamelessly: "Mr. Wang, this is a misunderstanding, really, please... don't be angry, give me a chance to apologize..."

Wang Tiezhu said with a gloomy face, "I'll count to three. If you still don't leave by the time I reach three, then don't blame me for being impolite."

1～”

As soon as he finished speaking, the man turned and ran outside, shouting, "Mr. Wang, please don't be angry. I'll leave right now. Please don't be angry."

Wang Tiezhu was greatly surprised to see the man disappear into the yard in a flash; the man's obedience caught him completely off guard.

The others in the courtyard watched the man leave.

Strange expressions appeared on everyone's faces. Some were gloating, while others couldn't even control their expressions, wanting to laugh but feeling it was inappropriate. Their forced expressions were quite interesting.

They were all secretly relieved that they hadn't stepped forward earlier, otherwise they would have been the ones to go out.

Wang Tiezhu turned around and saw that everyone had stood up. He frowned and said, "Have you come to the wrong place?"

Everyone stepped forward with smiles.

A man, probably in his fifties, dressed in an executive jacket, suit pants, and leather shoes, walked at the front and spoke in small voices: "Mr. Wang, we heard that you are going to develop Jiulong Mountain, so we came here specifically to congratulate you."

I didn't expect you to take three days to come back.

Congratulations?

Wait three days?

Wang Tiezhu found it absurd; he didn't know any of these people, so why would they congratulate him?

His childhood experience taught him that a stranger would not come to congratulate another stranger.

And we also wasted three days waiting.

It seems increasingly absurd.

He declined almost without hesitation: "Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come to my house. I appreciate your kind gesture."

Can you leave now?

This……

Everyone was reluctant to leave, looking at Wang Tiezhu as if they wanted to say something but hesitated.

Everyone who came here today has a purpose. Some want to win the mountain-opening project, some want to win the road-paving project, some want to win the cableway project, and some want to sign a contract for the glass walkway project.

Everyone's just trying to get the contract.

No one wants to leave until the goal is achieved.

Wang Tiezhu gestured for them to leave: "Everyone, please go back. If you have anything to do, go to your workplace."

Come find me in Shepherd Town tomorrow.

Seeing that Wang Tiezhu had said so, the crowd decided not to linger any longer. Some people stepped forward, shook hands with Wang Tiezhu, introduced themselves, and then turned and left.

Wang Tiezhu shook hands with each person in turn, but he couldn't remember any of them after all the introductions; it was all just a formality.

When everyone came out of the yard and wanted to go back inside, they found that the people hadn't driven away.

Some people got into their cars, while others even chatted at the door.

They have no intention of leaving.

He walked to the door, closed the gate, and then sat down under the big tree.

Zhang Xia placed a glass of water on the stone table: "What have you been doing these past few days? So many people have come to the house, and you haven't come back."

Wang Tiezhu dared not tell the truth, so he could only give a vague answer: "The leader asked me for help, so I went there for a few days."

lead?

Zhang Xia frowned as she looked at her son. After a long while, she asked with some doubt, "Are you telling the truth?"

Wang Tiezhu smiled and said, "Mom, would I lie to you?"

"You're my mother. I would never lie to you, let alone anyone else."

Zhang Xia snorted coldly: "Which leader is looking for you?"

Wang Tiezhu was a bit overwhelmed by his mother's detailed questions, so he had no choice but to continue making things up: "You know, Leader Liu is the top official in our county."

There will be many things we need his help with in the future development of tourism in Jiulong Mountain.

I can't refuse when people call me.

Zhang Xia said coldly, "The leader you mentioned, he just called to ask if you were home, saying he needed your help with something."

what?

Wang Tiezhu was somewhat surprised: "I was at his place yesterday. I didn't expect him to call me as soon as I got back. I'll go over there again in a bit."

Zhang Xia raised an eyebrow at Wang Tiezhu: "People called you yesterday, but you weren't there."

"Tell me, what exactly did you go about?"

Wang Tiezhu's expression gradually became unnatural: "Mom, if I said... I went to play cards... would you believe me?"
