Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Always stay with me.

Yi Zhonghai knew that he didn't have much time left, so he went to see Yan Jiecheng the next day.

Ever since Yan Jiecheng passed the first-level worker exam, Yi Zhonghai has basically ignored him and left him to fend for himself.

After working hard on his own for a while, Yan Jiecheng gave up.

This is due to his personality.

Yi Zhonghai was unwilling to teach him the technology, and he was unwilling to spend money to learn from others, so naturally he couldn't learn any new technologies.

The Yan family was stingy and always wanted to take advantage of others, so the workers in the workshop didn't like them either.

There was hardly anyone around Yan Jiecheng.

Yi Zhonghai came to his side, which startled Yan Jiecheng.

"Uncle, what brings you here?"

Yi Zhonghai tried his best to make his expression more kind.

"Jie Cheng, why are you calling me 'Grandpa'? I'm your master."

Yan Jiecheng looked at Yi Zhonghai with a puzzled expression.

When he first became an apprentice, he wanted to call Yi Zhonghai "master" like Jia Dongxu, but Yi Zhonghai refused.

Why did you suddenly make him call you "master"?

Yan Jiecheng was quite afraid of Yi Zhonghai, so he quickly said, "I'm used to calling him that. I'll change it from now on."

Yi Zhonghai was there to build a relationship with him, so naturally he wouldn't fall out with Yan Jiecheng over the issue of address.

He smiled and said, "It's okay, call me whatever you like."

Now Yan Jie was even more confused.

Will he change his tune or not?

"Master, what do you want to see me about?"

Yi Zhonghai said jokingly, "Can't I come to you if there's nothing wrong?"

He's not one to joke. That tone made Yan Jiecheng's heart pound.

Yan Jiecheng pondered for a while, but still couldn't figure out what was wrong with Yi Zhonghai.
The only thing he could think of was to have Yi Zhonghai act as an intermediary.

He absolutely refused.

He knew everything about his two younger brothers.

Yan Jiefang severed ties with Yan Bugui and lived a very comfortable life.

Yan Jiekuang lived with Yan Bugui and became the only child from the compound to be sent to the countryside.

"Master, did my dad send you to find me?"

Yi Zhonghai said with a smile, "It wasn't Lao Yan who sent me."

Yan Jiecheng didn't believe it and said, "If you say it's not true, then it's not true. No matter what, I've separated from him and I won't go back."

My wife and I need to rest and recover before trying to have a child. I don't want to end up without an heir.

The words "no descendants" deeply stung Yi Zhonghai. His eyes blazed with fury as he stared intently at Yan Jiecheng.

Yan Jiecheng realized what was happening and quickly explained, "Uncle, I didn't mean to."

Seeing his cowardly and incompetent appearance, Yi Zhonghai's anger subsided considerably.

He also knew that Yan Jiecheng hadn't meant it to him. For the sake of his plan, he couldn't afford to fall out with Yan Jiecheng over something like this.

This doesn't mean he's magnanimous or wouldn't hold a grudge against Yan Jiecheng.

On the contrary, this only strengthened Yan Jiecheng's resolve to take over.

Yi Zhonghai suppressed his anger and said in a calm tone, "It's okay, I know you didn't mean it."

As he said these words, he unconsciously gritted his teeth.

Yan Jiecheng relaxed considerably when he saw that Yi Zhonghai hadn't lost his temper.

"Thank you very much, sir."

Yi Zhonghai smiled and said, "It's nothing. Jiecheng, there are some things I still need to tell you."

"Old Yan is your own father, you can't blame him."

Yan Jiecheng said, "How could I dare to complain about him? I'm already grateful to the leader for not plotting against me."

Sir, is there anything else you need?
If there's nothing else, I'll go get to work.

Yi Zhonghai's behavior was truly illogical. Yan Jiecheng felt uneasy and planned to use the excuse of working to get rid of Yi Zhonghai.

How could Yi Zhonghai let Yan Jiecheng escape? He grabbed Yan Jiecheng.

"Wait, I haven't finished speaking yet."

Yan Jiecheng had no choice but to sit down again: "Then hurry up and tell me."

Yi Zhonghai smiled and said, "I came to see you this time to talk about technical matters."

"I see your skills haven't improved much. Why don't you learn properly from me?" Yan Jiecheng's eyes lit up, and he looked at Yi Zhonghai excitedly.

"You're willing to teach me."

Yi Zhonghai's character isn't great, but his skills are undeniable.

If Yi Zhonghai is truly willing to teach, Yan Jiecheng will certainly not refuse.

To get promoted in the steel rolling mill, one needs not only to study politics but also to have sufficient technical skills.

He wasn't promoted because his skills weren't up to standard.

Yi Zhonghai gave a direct answer.

He wanted to teach Yan Jiecheng, but he didn't want to teach him on his own initiative.

There's a saying that goes, "You can't make a sale by being too eager."

If Yan Jiecheng wants to learn from him, he should come and beg him.

“You are my apprentice, so of course I will teach you. However, as you know, I have very strict requirements for my apprentices.”

After leaving those words, Yi Zhonghai departed.

Yan Jiecheng looked at Yi Zhonghai with suspicion, feeling that he had guessed the truth.

Yi Zhonghai wants him to give gifts.

dream.

You won’t be poor if you have enough food and clothes, but you will be poor if you don’t plan well.

If he were truly willing to give gifts, he would have gone to other people long ago.

Those people were no less skilled than Yi Zhonghai, and they were even better at teaching apprentices than Yi Zhonghai.

As Yi Zhonghai's apprentice, Yan Jiecheng knew very well how Yi Zhonghai taught his disciples.

Yi Zhonghai was unaware of Yan Jiecheng's thoughts. He wanted to keep Yan Jiecheng anxious for a while before telling him.

Qin Huairu had been keeping a close eye on Yi Zhonghai. She was having a hard time, and no one else dared to help her.

The only person she could turn to for help was Yi Zhonghai.

However, I just haven't found the opportunity yet.

When Qin Huairu saw Yi Zhonghai talking to Yan Jiecheng, she knew that Yi Zhonghai must have something for Yan Jiecheng to do.

Qin Huairu saw this as an opportunity and came over.

"Sir, are you having some trouble?"

Yi Zhonghai looked at Qin Huairu with a hint of smugness in his eyes. He knew that Qin Huairu would eventually come to beg him for help.

However, he did not soften his heart.

He wouldn't help Qin Huairu if she didn't agree to his conditions.

“What difficulties could I possibly encounter? I just talked to Jie Cheng and asked him to prepare to learn the technology from me.”

Qin Huairu's heart skipped a beat; she had a bad feeling. She was worried that Yi Zhonghai would let Yan Jiecheng live out his retirement.

"Uncle, I also want to learn a skill. Could you teach me?"

Yi Zhonghai sneered: "Huai Ru, it's not that I don't want to teach you."

Even if you study very well, it's useless. The factory has rules that people like you who made mistakes are not eligible to take the exam.

Qin Huairu's purpose was not to take the exam; she only wanted to follow Yi Zhonghai and slowly win him back so that he would not have any improper thoughts.

Hearing Yi Zhonghai's cold words, Qin Huai felt extremely aggrieved.

"Grandpa, please help me. I really can't go on living like this anymore."

Yi Zhonghai whispered, "Agree to my conditions, and I'll help you."

Qin Huairu's aggrieved tone immediately stopped. She also whispered, "How can I, a widow, get pregnant? You're trying to force me to my death."

Yi Zhonghai said, "Don't worry about it, I promise I'll arrange everything for you. Just listen to me."

Qin Huairu still hadn't made up her mind. It wasn't that she didn't want to remarry, but rather that she couldn't find a suitable candidate.

She thought that with her beauty, Meng Bo would be willing to marry her.

As a result, Meng Bo kicked her out of the house and said she was daydreaming.

The others were also unwilling.

Yi Zhonghai is just a useless old man now, what kind of people can he possibly assign to her?

She didn't want to fall from the wolf's den into the tiger's mouth.

"My mother-in-law will not agree to this."

"Then let her go hungry for a few meals. If she doesn't have enough to eat every day, she'll behave herself."

Seeing that even Jia Zhangshi was of no use, Qin Huai had no choice but to find an excuse to leave. (End of Chapter)
