Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Yan Bugui stood there, stunned for a long time before he finally reacted.

Because He Yuzhu is right.

If Yi Zhonghai really had a wife, he wouldn't come to his house for dinner.

He lost one way to make money.

The loss here is far greater than the five catties of meat Qin Huairu gave.

Yan Bugui returned home somewhat embarrassed. Once home, he complained to his third aunt, "Why didn't you remind me?"

The three women said, "You didn't tell me what you were going to do."

She only saw Yan Bugui pestering an old woman, but had no idea what Yan Bugui was up to.

If it weren't for knowing Yan Bugui's temperament and knowing that he would never pay to support others, Auntie San would have already gotten restless.

Yan Bugui said helplessly, "I almost fell for Qin Huairu's trick."

The three women said, "You've already fallen for Qin Huairu's trick. When Lao Yi comes back, he'll definitely cause you trouble."

The third aunt is right.

When Yi Zhonghai heard that Yan Bugui wanted to match him with an old woman, he was furious and stormed into Yan's house.

"Yan Bugui, what do you want? If you don't want me to eat at your house, just say so. There's no need to disgust me like this."

His voice was loud enough for people outside to hear.

Miao Jianye was annoyed when he heard this. How dare Yi Zhonghai say such a thing?

Who is really disgusting whom?

An older woman stopped him from arguing with Yi Zhonghai.

Yan Bugui looked embarrassed and explained, "Old Yi, listen to me. I was tricked by Qin Huairu."

She begged me, saying that you were all alone and helpless, and that she felt sorry for you, so she asked me to persuade your ex-wife.

She said you were willing.

I was just thinking of helping you.

Yi Zhonghai was still angry, but he did not pursue the matter further.

There aren't many people in the courtyard who are willing to take care of him, and the Yan family is currently the most suitable.

Although Yan Bugui was greedy for money, he did a great job.

Although the food I ate with Yan Bugui for so long wasn't great, it was still much better than eating with the Jia family.

"Are you helping me? You're hurting me."

What is Miao Jianye's purpose in coming to Beijing? Can't you tell?

I want to remarry Miao Cuilan, and all my assets will belong to the Miao family.

Yan Bugui looked at Yi Zhonghai with some confusion. In his view, Miao Jianye was the aunt's nephew, and could also be considered Yi Zhonghai's nephew.

Why does Yi Zhonghai dislike Miao Jianye so much?

Are you afraid of being wiped out by the Miao family? Aren't you afraid of being wiped out by the Jia family?
He really couldn't understand why there were people who would rather benefit outsiders than their own relatives.

It would be understandable if the Miao family did something utterly heinous to Yi Zhonghai.

The key point is that the Miao family did not wrong Yi Zhonghai.

If it were him, he would never have done the same as Yi Zhonghai.

When Sha Zhu was taking care of Yan Bugui in his old age, Yan Bugui did not give the house to Sha Zhu, but instead chose to sell it to Sha Zhu.

In order to unite with them, Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu brainwashed Sha Zhu, telling him that buying a house was a benefit to be shared with Yan Bugui.

The money that was supposed to be used to buy a house will eventually be used for a nursing home.

However, all the expenses for the nursing home were covered by Qin Huairu's three children, who obtained the money from the restaurant.

The money in Yan Bugui's hands was not used at all.

Before his death, Yan Bugui divided the money among his children, but didn't give any to Shazhu.

The Yan family's children were clearly unfilial, yet Yan Bugui still favored his own children in the end.

He truly couldn't understand Yi Zhonghai's behavior.

"Old Yi, don't be angry. I meant well. If you don't want to, then forget it. I won't bring it up again, okay?"

Yi Zhonghai finally calmed down and sat down to the side.

"Old Yan, it's not that I'm angry. It's that you have no principles."

You need to know that I share the same stance as you.” Yi Zhonghai was talking about elderly care, but Yan Bugui interpreted it as the stance of the three old men.

Even with the examples of Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang, Yan Bugui did not believe that his son would be unwilling to support him in his old age.

He naturally had no idea about the big secret in Yi Zhonghai's heart.

"You're right, I was wrong this time. But I still have to ask one question."

What are you really thinking? You can't really not remarry.

Suddenly, Qin Huairu's image appeared in Yi Zhonghai's mind.

If it were a choice to get married, Qin Huairu would naturally be the first choice.

He's filled with hatred right now.

If he had known earlier that the older woman would divorce him, he shouldn't have let Qin Huairu marry Jia Dongxu in the first place.

He simply married Qin Huairu, which saved him a lot of trouble.

Now, he and Qin Huairu are from different generations. If he were to marry Qin Huairu, people would laugh at him to death.

Yi Zhonghai took a deep breath and said righteously, "Stop talking. Look at how old I am. How many more years do I have left to live? Don't ruin those young girls."

Yan Bugui thought to himself, "You really have a dream. You're trying to ruin a young girl."

"You could actually marry someone around your age, or even younger."

Having someone take care of you is better than what you're like now.

I'm not saying my family doesn't want to take care of you; I'm genuinely thinking of you.

Yi Zhonghai still refused.

Seeing this, Yan Bugui stopped talking. At the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief, finally managing to get away with the matter.

After hearing He Yuzhu's words, he became more vigilant and determined not to let Yi Zhonghai get married.

The people in the courtyard didn't hear anything from the Yan family, so they naturally dispersed.

The Chinese New Year will be here soon.

This year, Yi Zhonghai ate New Year's Eve dinner with the Yan family. The Jia family didn't even bother to invite him.

The Xu family came to the courtyard house to celebrate the New Year because Xu Damao's daughter was too young and they were afraid that she would get cold if they took her out.

After eating some food at home, Xu Fugui took a bottle of wine and went to drink with He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, what did Da Mao do to offend you? Tell me, I'll go teach him a lesson."

He Yuzhu naturally wouldn't say anything. He hadn't caught Xu Damao and Qin Huairu having an affair, so what could he say?

Wouldn't bringing this up disrupt the harmony of the Xu family?

"It's nothing. I'm just worried that if we all get together, we'll attract too much attention and be targeted."

At this time, it's best to keep a low profile.

Xu Fugui did not doubt He Yuzhu's words and said with emotion, "You're right. In this era, the more low-key we are, the better."

Da Mao told me that Deputy Director Meng from your factory has been giving you trouble.

He Yuzhu said, "He's just a clown, not worth mentioning."

Xu Fugui said, "I know you are capable, but we can't let our guard down."

People like them are ruthless. Take our deputy director of the movie theater, for example.

He used to be just a warehouse keeper. Who would have thought that when the movement started, he would take the warehouse ledgers and sue the director?

The higher-ups arrested all the leaders in the institute and made him the director of the song committee.

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Uncle Xu, don't worry. Meng Bo's little tricks can't touch me."

In terms of knowing leaders, he's far inferior to me.

Seeing that He Yuzhu didn't care, Xu Fugui stopped talking about it and started talking about other things.

"Qin Huairu is quite capable, she actually managed to become the captain of the female workers' disciplinary team."

He Yuzhu turned his head and glanced coldly outside: "She doesn't have many good days left."

He Yuzhu could ignore Qin Huairu's arrogant behavior and acceptance of bribes.

But Qin Huairu was watching him closely, even stalking him. He Yuzhu couldn't stand it anymore.

He has already decided that after the Chinese New Year, he will find an opportunity to remove Qin Huairu from power.

Xu Fugui's expression froze upon hearing He Yuzhu's words: "You'd better not let your guard down." (End of Chapter)
