Chapter 700 Family Banquet, Murder Case
"Come on, come on, dinner is ready. It's a homely meal, but the reception is not good. Is there anything Xiao Jiang wants to eat? Auntie will buy it in the afternoon and make it in the evening."
Su Ping walked out of the kitchen with a steaming bowl of pork rib soup and a smile on her face.
"That's enough, that's enough. It's so rich. I'm not a picky eater. Come and sit down."
Jiang Hua felt that Su Ping was too flattering to him and was a little uncomfortable with it.
"Lao Gan, you still need to inquire about your old classmate. Three hundred thousand is not a small amount. I asked you to report the crime last time. Did you go?"
When Su Ping saw her husband sitting at the table, preparing to eat, she felt a little unhappy and was nagging.
"It's Chinese New Year and we're all on holiday. Where can I go to report a crime?"
Gan Dongping looked embarrassed.
He has a meek character. Although he is angry at being cheated, he does not want to do anything wrong. He still hopes that his old classmate will only encounter temporary difficulties. When the trouble is solved, he will take the initiative to show up and return his money.
"Lao Gan, don't be careless with me. A monk can escape but cannot escape from the temple. If you go to his house and ask, I won't believe him. His wife doesn't know his whereabouts."
Su Ping has a snobbish personality and has always been very persistent about money matters.
"Old orphans and widowed mothers have already been tortured hard enough by debt collectors, so I won't add to the trouble."
Gan Dongping's tone was weak.
"Her man is not dead. He is an orphan and a widowed mother. I heard that you and his wife are also classmates. Is there some hidden story between you two old classmates?"
Su Ping looked suspicious.
"Mom, you are getting too far. There are guests at home. Even if you want to quarrel with Dad, can you do it in the dead of night?"
Gan Tiantian felt that during the Chinese New Year, her mother kept bothering about this issue, which somewhat ruined the atmosphere.
"That's it, what are you talking about? Shunzi's wife and I are not familiar with each other, so we are not as dirty as you think."
Gan Dongping's face turned red.
"Xiaoyue, has Jiang Qianxue returned to school? How is your pet home with her?"
Jiang Hua was eating and concerned about his sister-in-law's recent life.
He is too busy and has very little time to spend with his family, and even less time to communicate with Su Danyue.
"She has gone back to school. My sister invested some money in my pet home last time, and it is now running well."
Su Danyue was very happy when she talked about her career.
In the eyes of outsiders, adopting stray cats and dogs is completely unprofessional, but she likes small animals. Adopting stray cats and dogs and giving them a home can give her a sense of accomplishment.
Jiang Hua glanced at his wife in surprise. He remembered that Su Zhirou had not approved of his sister opening a pet rescue center before. Unexpectedly, he had figured it out now and took the initiative to invest money for his sister.
"Look at what I do. I'm actually very liberal and not authoritarian at all."
Su Zhirou rolled her eyes at her husband.
"That's right, securities companies are now an emerging industry. Mr. Su can be at the forefront of the trend. Of course he is not an autocratic person."
Jiang Hua shamelessly flatters his wife.
In this life, due to his influence, there was a slight deviation in the domestic securities trading market.
With the opening of the Shanghai Stock Exchange, securities companies from all over the country are blooming everywhere. The first batch of listed A-shares is several more than in the previous life. The "old eight-share stock" is completely buried in history.
Every time he saw these changes, Jiang Hua sighed with emotion. Even if he did it unintentionally, he had indeed changed the trajectory of history.
Of course, the biggest change was the people around him. Seeing his wife, daughter, and sister-in-law as a happy family, sitting together chatting and laughing, he felt extremely satisfied.
"Brother-in-law, thank you."
Su Danyue, who was sitting next to him, suddenly whispered something.
"Thank me for what?"
Jiang Hua was stunned for a moment, thanking him for no reason.
"Thank you for tolerating me. I feel very happy now."
Su Danyue smiled sweetly.
A blind girl who had been blind for many years suddenly regained her sight. She actually had social difficulties. Jiang Hua understood her very well and never forced her to do anything, even if she ran to open a pet rescue center, which in the eyes of outsiders was not a serious job.
Jiang Hua also fully supports him. With such a brother-in-law, what else can be said?
"Lao Du, I can't drink well. You can drink it yourself. Don't be polite."
Gan Dongping greeted Lao Du warmly.
"I'm a thick-skinned person. No matter where I go, I'm not polite."
Lao Du's character is somewhat similar to Jiang Hua's. He is a cosmopolitan and can make friends with anyone.
"It's better not to be polite. I like people who are not polite."
Jiang Hua said with a smile.
The three men drank two glasses of wine before starting to serve the meal.
"Lao Gan, just sit down and I'll help you serve the food."
Su Ping is a snobbish person, but she is also very talkative, and sometimes scolds her husband to the point of being disgraced, but she is not just mean, and she also cares about her husband.
At this time, someone knocked on the door outside.
"Tiantian, go and open the door."
Su Ping held two bowls in her hands and couldn't separate them.
Gan Tiantian put down the dishes, ran over and opened the door. Then she was stunned. After a while, she asked: "Who are you looking for?"
Su Zhirou gently poked her husband and gave him a look. Jiang Hua turned around in confusion and looked towards the door. His back was facing the entrance door. He was not ready to turn around unless his wife reminded him.
"Excuse me, is Gan Dongping at home?"
asked a young man in a police uniform.
Standing next to him was a colleague in police uniform who was a few years older than him.
"Why are you looking for my dad?"
Gan Tiantian was guarding the door vigilantly, and it was not a good sign that the police came to the door during the Chinese New Year.
Jiang Hua subconsciously stood up, wondering in his heart. Given Gan Dongping's good-natured character, he was afraid of stepping on ants when he walked, so how could he get into trouble.
"Which police station are you from? Why are you looking for Lao Gan?"
Lao Du had just had two drinks, so he stood up carelessly, walked over and blocked the door.
"There was a murder case. The deceased's wife said that Gan Dongping was the last person the deceased had contact with. Let's come over to find out the situation."
The young policeman was very polite.
"Impossible, my dad won't kill anyone!"
Gan Tiantian's voice was raised a bit because of her nervousness.
"I didn't say he killed anyone. We just came here to understand the situation."
The police explained very politely.
"Tiantian, don't block the door. Come in and talk. I'm Gan Dongping."
Gan Dongping put down his bowls and chopsticks and walked towards the door.
Su Zhirou put her hand on her husband's arm, subconsciously tightened it, and stared nervously at the door.
"It's okay. You still don't understand my uncle's character?"
Jiang Hua patted the back of his wife's hand to comfort her.
"Lao Gan, what happened? Who died?"
Su Ping quickly walked out of the kitchen without caring about filling the rice.
"Well, a male corpse was found in Liutang Town. After investigation, the deceased's name was Cui Shun. We found his wife Jiang Rumei. She said that the last person her husband saw was Gan Dongping."
The young policeman said while holding a notepad.
"She is talking nonsense. Her man is not trustworthy. He defrauded my husband of his money and ran away. Now that he is dead, he still pays for it. How can there be such a shameless woman?"
Su Ping was furious.
"In other words, you and the deceased had financial disputes?"
