Chapter 240
Chapter 240
After a loud bang, there was a series of clanging and banging sounds, as if someone was constantly throwing things on the ground. Although it was not as scary as the initial sound, the intermittent sound was really annoying.
At the same time, there was the sound of fierce fighting, and it seemed that there was more than one person involved.
Now Ye Ke and Ye Wenhui no longer looked at each other in confusion. It was obvious that a fight had broken out upstairs!
Ye Ke hadn't paid much attention to his resettlement house since the demolition. He pointed upstairs and asked Ye Wenhui curiously, "Mom? Who lives upstairs?"
Although the people in Yejia Village are not superstitious, they are willing to pursue good luck in everything, and everyone is very particular about the first day of the Lunar New Year.
For example, people are reluctant to quarrel or make trouble on the first day of the New Year. If they can bear it, they will think about holding it in for a while. Even if there are naughty children at home, they will wait until after the New Year to settle the score.
Few people would choose to fall out on the first day of the new year.
Well, strangely enough, there are quite a few this year.
It was just torn at Grandma Wang’s house this morning.
Ye Ke guessed that Zhao Ying had chosen to come today specifically, probably considering this reason.
She probably thought that it was New Year's Day and Grandma Wang was old and wanted to bring good luck, while Ye Xiaoxi was young and couldn't afford to lose face, so she might have agreed without thinking.
Even if he didn't agree, he would probably decline politely so that Zhao Ying could save face.
But I didn't expect that even a rabbit would bite when it was angry? Ye Xiaoxi, the most well-behaved and capable child that the elders of Yejia Village always talked about, had lost his temper this time.
While the elders around were still discussing Ye Xiaoxi's changes, Ye Ke felt that perhaps this kind of Ye Xiaoxi was the most real.
"I don't know either." Ye Wenhui shook her head, with a hint of confusion on her face.
Ye Ke found it strange that there were actually people among these neighbors that Ye Wenhui didn't know?
Ye Wenhui said calmly, without any emotion, "This house originally belonged to Ye Wenlin."
When they were close before, she always called him Wenlin, but now she calls him by his full name.
"Didn't he lose his house in gambling and mortgage it all?" Ye Ke scratched his head and asked.
When he and Zheng Jiayi divorced, Zheng Jiayi just wanted to leave the environment of Yejia Village, so she didn't take any of the demolished houses, and exchanged them all for money to buy a house in Ancheng.
However, Ye Wenlin was unable to keep the house in the end. After he lost all his money, he used the house to gamble, and as expected, he lost everything. In the end, he was so destitute that he went to Ancheng to ask Zheng Jiayi for money.
He had to wait at the gate of the community every day, forcing Zheng Jiayi to follow her son to Hai City, a place where she could no longer find him.
It is really sad that a couple and a happy family have become like this now.
Ye Wenhui shook her head and said, "Yes, Ye Wenlin did move it out. Later I heard that someone rented it out. I don't know who lives in the house now."
There was disgust in Ye Wenhui's tone. How could a good person get involved in Ye Wenlin's gambling incident and profit in the end?
As the two were talking, the fight upstairs became more intense and the noise became louder. Ye Ke let out a loud "Ah" in annoyance.
She trotted to the window and was about to look up and yell a warning to the upstairs.
Then I saw a head popping out from upstairs.
The back of the head was facing away from Ye Ke. Ye Ke was startled at first, but did not pay much attention to it. As a result, when he looked closely, he found that there was a hand pinching the protruding neck!
Ye Ke's pupils shrank suddenly: "Fuck!"
Although I was scared, fortunately the noise was not loud and could not be heard by people upstairs.
Ye Wenhui heard this and came over. Ye Ke quickly retracted his head, patted his frightened heart, turned his eyes, and said to Ye Wenhui: "Mom! Call the police!"
Ye Wenhui said "Huh?" in confusion.
Ye Ke said seriously, "I think it's more than just a fight upstairs. I'm afraid someone might get killed."
The scene she witnessed was far from an ordinary fight. Whether it was pushing someone against the window or strangling someone, the actions were completely malicious.
As for going up to stop them, that is impossible. Ye Ke values his life very much and will not confront them head-on.
Ye Wenhui didn't know the situation, but she subconsciously agreed after hearing what Ye Ke said. However, they had originally kept this apartment just to rest during the holidays, and had no intention of living there permanently, so naturally they didn't install a phone.
Ye Ke also thought of this.
She frowned and made a decision after only a moment's hesitation.
She peeked out the window and saw the head shaking from side to side, struggling. Ye Ke retracted his head, stood by the window, clenched his fists, and yelled, "What are you making so much noise upstairs! Can you be quiet during New Year's Day?! If you keep disturbing others like this, I'll call the police!"
After Ye Ke finished yelling, he immediately pulled Ye Wenhui out and ran downstairs quickly.
Their resettlement house has six floors in total. Ye Wenhui originally chose the third floor. Ye Ke is really glad that this floor is not high, otherwise her legs would have gone weak from running.
As the two of them stepped onto the ground floor, they heard fierce banging on the door from upstairs: "Get out here!"
The man's voice was anxious and rough, and his tone revealed a strong sense of malice. "Don't hide in there and keep silent! Weren't you very angry just now?"
The man spat on the door, but still no one responded. He kicked it a few more times, as if he was sure that there was only a woman inside, and he was venting his anger wantonly.
Ye Ke and Ye Wenhui looked at each other, not daring to make any noise, and ran straight out.
Because we had another meal in the evening, the seats outside were not cleared. Some people went home to rest, some still sat there drinking tea and playing cards, and some sat together eating melon seeds and chatting.
My aunt was one of the gossiping people. When she saw Ye Ke and Ye Wenhui running over, she frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you two?"
He was panting as if he had been chased by a dog.
As my aunt said this, she even glanced behind the two of them. There was nothing there?!
Ye Ke asked breathlessly, "Where can I make a phone call?" As she spoke, she looked at Aunt Zhou and the others who were gossiping with her. It would be right to ask them.
Zhou Chunxiang first pointed outside the community and said, "It's in the small shop at the entrance."
Thinking of something, he pointed at the village chief who was playing cards and said, "Oh, there are some at the village chief's house too."
He would have to explain to the village chief and wait for him to open the door, so Ye Ke ran to the gate of the community without thinking.
Ye Wenhui followed her closely, but this time she no longer ran, but hurried to catch up.
When my aunt saw that the two men didn't even respond to her words, she ran out anxiously. She felt a chill in her heart, guessing that something must have happened, and hurriedly followed them.
