Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

If we were to go back to 1951, Qin Huairu would definitely have agreed without even thinking about it.

Even if we go back five years, Qin Huairu might hesitate, but in the end, she would still agree.

That won't work now.

Personally, Yi Zhonghai has recovered from his illness, and after marriage, he will definitely ask her to have children.

If she has a child with Yi Zhonghai, then what will happen to Bang Geng?
For the sake of the sake of the project, Qin Huairu would absolutely never marry Yi Zhonghai.

In terms of family wealth, it was even less likely that she would marry Yi Zhonghai.

When Yi Zhonghai was earning seventy or eighty yuan a month, he wasn't willing to marry her. Now that he's only earning thirty-five yuan a month, he's thinking about marrying her.

What do you take her for?
Are you a scavenger?
With Yi Zhonghai's meager salary, who could he possibly support?

"Uncle, I think Auntie is better. You and Auntie have been married for decades and have a deep relationship."

Yi Zhonghai suddenly grabbed Qin Huairu's hand: "Huairu, why don't you understand? The person I'm talking about is you."

If it weren't for Miao Cuilan back then, we would have been a couple long ago.

I want you to have a son for me.

Qin Huai tried desperately to pull her hand away, but couldn't. She had no choice but to give up and decide to try and move Yi Zhonghai with her performance.

"Uncle, no way. I'm Dongxu's wife. If people find out we're married, what will they think of us?"

Yi Zhonghai said considerately, "Huai Ru, I don't plan to marry you. I just want you to have a child for me."

Such outrageous words left Qin Huairu speechless with shock.

She really is the Yi Zhonghai she knows; he's unwilling to make any sacrifices.

He only wanted her to have children, but he wouldn't give her a single penny.

"Uncle, I'm a widow. If I get pregnant, how will I face people?"

Yi Zhonghai's eyes were somewhat dim.

He remembered the deaf old lady's plan from back then.

"Huai Ru, you can marry someone else. Actually, the best match is Sha Zhu."

When the old lady was alive, she said that he was the most suitable person to take care of me in my old age.

"It would be so nice if you could marry him."

Qin Huairu was filled with bitterness. Of course, she wanted to marry He Yuzhu, but He Yuzhu didn't think much of her.

"Stop talking. Sha Zhu has a wife and children. He won't marry me."

"Sir, please don't say such things. I'm a widow; it's impossible for me to get pregnant."

Yi Zhonghai suddenly stood up: "Huai Ru, this is the only wish I have in my life. Can't you grant it to me?"

After weighing the options, Qin Huairu ultimately chose to refuse.

She wouldn't even agree to marry Yi Zhonghai. And Yi Zhonghai doesn't want to marry her either.

She's a widow; if she really gets pregnant, how will she ever face anyone again?

"Impossible. I'm a widow, it's impossible for me to get pregnant."

Yi Zhonghai was greatly disappointed when Qin Huairu refused. His heart was filled with resentment towards Qin Huairu.

In his view, he became like this because of Qin Huairu.

If it weren't for Qin Huairu, he wouldn't have helped the Jia family so much, and he certainly wouldn't have fallen out with He Yuzhu.

If Qin Huai treats him like this, he is heartless and an ingrate.

In his life, Yi Zhonghai hated ingrates the most: "Huai Ru, don't forget, all these years, I've been the one taking care of your family."

Without me, your family would have been destitute long ago.

If the soft one doesn't work, then the hard one will do.

Yi Zhonghai was well aware of the Jia family's weakness.

Qin Huairu naturally understood Yi Zhonghai's words. However, she inwardly disdained them.

In terms of savings alone, her secret stash might not be any less than Yi Zhonghai's.

If there's anything wrong with her, it's that she doesn't own a house.

She just doesn't want to spend her own money.

Yi Zhonghai's idea of ​​using this small amount of money to threaten her is a pipe dream.

"Uncle, I am very grateful for your care of our family. But I still cannot agree to your request. Have you thought about what people will think of me, a widow who is pregnant out of wedlock?"

What will they say about the baby in my belly?

They'll say the child is a bastard. Would you want your child to be called a bastard later in life?

Yi Zhonghai's breathing became heavy, and his eyes reddened: "With me here, no one dares to say that."

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes. "You're an old, childless man. How many people would care about you?"

She didn't want to fall out with Yi Zhonghai yet, so she said, "Let's not talk about the rumors for now."

I'm asking you, once the child is born, how do you raise it?
With my meager salary, I can't even support a few chickens.

How am I supposed to raise that child?

Yi Zhonghai was unwilling to marry Qin Huairu, nor was he willing to spend the money.

The experiences of Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui illustrate one point: even biological children are not necessarily filial.

He needs to save his retirement money before he's sure his children will be filial.

"Huai Ru, I'll find you a man to help raise our child, and also Bang Geng."

Qin Huairu couldn't help but feel a little angry. What did Yi Zhonghai take her for by doing this?

She took a deep breath and suppressed her anger.

"What kind of man can you find for me? If you can get Sha Zhu to marry me, I'll agree to your request."

Yi Zhonghai said, "Promise me first, and I will definitely find a way to get Sha Zhu to marry you."

Qin Huairu wasn't stupid. She knew very well that this request would be difficult to fulfill.

He Yuzhu usually doesn't even bother to talk to her, so how could he possibly divorce his wife and marry her again?

He Yuzhu rarely spent time alone with her, so even if she wanted to use underhanded tactics against him, she couldn't find an opportunity.

"Uncle, you know that's impossible."

Sha Zhu now has a wife, and she has given birth to two children for him.

Didn't you see how much he spoils his child?

It's easy to get him to help my family, but difficult to get him to marry me.

You used to talk so much about how wonderful the Jia family was, and you were so full of yourself with praise. But what happened in the end?

I won't fall for your tricks again.

If you ask me, you should remarry that old lady.

After you remarry him, you can get back the house and money you gave her.

Yi Zhonghai's face darkened, and he immediately began to threaten: "Huai Ru, don't forget. Without me, your family wouldn't be able to survive in this courtyard."

Qin Huairu was somewhat worried, but she could not succumb to Yi Zhonghai's threat.

The Jia family certainly had a hard time without Yi Zhonghai. But Yi Zhonghai couldn't survive without the Jia family either.

Since Yi Zhonghai lost his status as an elder statesman and was punished, the two families have actually become mutually dependent.

"Uncle, don't forget. You've divorced Auntie, and now there's no one to take care of you."

Yi Zhonghai became even angrier when he heard that Qin Huairu dared to threaten him.

In his eyes, the Jia family was begging him and living under his care.

No one can disobey him except the Jia family.

He is a very controlling person. He absolutely does not allow anyone to disobey him, especially his elderly relatives, who must obey him completely.

Yi Zhonghai decided to teach Qin Huairu a lesson. He wanted Qin Huairu to know that the Jia family couldn't survive without his help.

“Huai Ru, today is the 23rd, and next month’s food coupons will be issued tomorrow. Since you’re unwilling, I will stop eating with your family starting tomorrow.”

Qin Huairu hadn't expected Yi Zhonghai to be so ruthless, but she didn't give in.

The difference between Yi Zhonghai's demands and the benefits he could offer her was enormous.

There was no way she could agree.

Qin Huairu believed that Yi Zhonghai would eventually give in. Only she and the Jia family would agree to Yi Zhonghai's retirement arrangements.

"Uncle, you are an elder, you can eat with whichever family you prefer."

Since you don't want to eat at my house, I won't cook for you tomorrow. (End of Chapter)
