Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Qin Huai threatened to write a letter to Bang Geng, forcing Jia Zhangshi to agree to pay the money.

There was nothing she could do; she didn't know how to write letters and was worried that Qin Huairu might actually slander her in a letter.

"Qin Huairu, I'm warning you, the money is for Bang Geng. If you dare to embezzle it, I will absolutely not let you off the hook."

Also, I remember exactly how much money I gave Bang Geng.

When he gets back, I'll definitely ask him about it.

Qin Huairu didn't take the threat seriously. Even if Jia Zhangshi found out, she couldn't do anything to her.

After leaving the Jia family residence, Qin Huairu stared into the passageway. Madam Jia Zhang had only provided a small portion; the bulk of the money would have to come from Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai felt very bad at this moment, as if he was going to suffer a loss.

This caused him to be somewhat distracted while playing chess, and Liu Haizhong captured several of his pieces without him being able to retaliate.

"Old Yi, are you sure you can handle this?"

Looking at the pieces on the chessboard, Yi Zhonghai saw no chance of winning and decisively resigned.

Yan Bugui smiled and said, "Old Yi, according to the rules, it's my turn."

Yi Zhonghai didn't say a word and obediently moved aside.

After Yan Bugui sat down, he asked, "What's wrong? Is something on your mind?"

Yi Zhonghai sighed: "It's nothing, I'm just a little unsettled."

Liu Haizhong said nonchalantly, "You just overthink things."

Yi Zhonghai didn't even bother to talk to him.

If you don't take care of yourself, how will you support yourself in old age?
After glancing at the scene, Yi Zhonghai felt increasingly uneasy.

He couldn't figure out what was going on, so he wanted to run away home.

After passing through the corridor and seeing Qin Huairu, Yi Zhonghai's unease intensified.

He also guessed that this unease came from Qin Huairu.

Yi Zhonghai regretted it and wanted to go back.

However, Qin Huai had already seen him: "Zhonghai, you're back. Perfect timing, I have something to discuss with you."

With no way to avoid it, Yi Zhonghai could only follow Qin Huairu into the house.

"Zhonghai, I just went to ask Qian Yong's mother. Do you know how Qian Yong got back?"

Yi Zhonghai asked, "How did you get back?"

“He faked his illness to come back. If he can come back, then Banggeng can naturally come back too.” A smile unconsciously appeared on Qin Huairu’s face.

Is the punt coming back?

Yi Zhonghai had thought about this question more than once. His heart was filled with contradictions.

Sometimes I hope Bang Geng comes back, and sometimes I don't.

"What if someone finds out?" Yi Zhonghai thought for a long time, and could only ask this question.

Qin Huairu, however, was unconcerned: "What's there to be afraid of? These days, there are plenty of people who fake illness to come back. It's not just Bang Geng alone."

I checked, and Qian Yong's return procedures were all very formal.

He has a diagnosis from the hospital and a letter of introduction from the educated youth office.

When Banggeng comes back, we can simply arrange for him to go to the hospital for a checkup and get him some medicine.

As long as we don't tell anyone, no one will know.

"When Banggeng comes back, he'll find a job, and once he's settled, he can take care of us in our old age."

When the topic of retirement came up, Yi Zhonghai couldn't object. Having not seen Bang Geng for many years, he was curious to see how Bang Geng had become.

If Banggeng changes too much and becomes like the other children in the orphanage, that would be very disadvantageous for him.

"Then you, you great idiot, write a letter."

Qin Huairu looked troubled: "To get these things done, you have to give gifts to others."

My mother-in-law gave me 100 yuan, and I also took 100 yuan.

Can you give me two hundred yuan?

With this money, it's enough for Bang Geng to complete the formalities.

When Banggeng comes back, I'll make sure he takes good care of you.

Two hundred yuan wasn't much, and after thinking about it, Yi Zhonghai didn't refuse. It wasn't worth falling out with the Jia family and incurring Bang Geng's wrath over two hundred yuan.

Once Qin Huai got the money from Yi Zhonghai, he happily went back to write a letter.

In her letter, she did not mention Yi Zhonghai giving her money, nor did she mention Jia Zhangshi giving her money separately. Instead, she took all the credit for herself.

A week later, Banggeng finally received the letter. In it, Qin Huairu told Banggeng how to feign illness and how to send gifts.

After watching the video, I didn't feel much joy.

"Bang Geng, what's wrong?" A young woman, not yet thirty, walked in from outside.

She entered Banggeng's house as if it were her own home.

When Banggeng saw him, he hurriedly hid the letter: "Sister Feng, what brings you here?"

Sister Feng noticed Bang Geng's little actions, and her eyes were filled with joy.

There were fifteen educated youths in their village, and Banggeng's family was the best off.

Other families might not send much money over several months.

Bang Geng, however, is different; he receives ten yuan from his family every month.

Ten yuan.

In rural areas, this is a great fortune.

This ten yuan is enough to ensure that Banggeng lives a comfortable life for a month.

Even when villagers go begging for food, Banggeng never goes hungry.

For the villagers, the stalk of the stalk is like the flesh of Tang Monk.

One bite and your family can live a better life.

Many women in the village had their eyes on him.

At first, some women in the village were willing to marry Banggeng. However, Banggeng was arrogant and looked down on the villagers.

As they spent more time together, they discovered that Bang Geng had no real skills other than being from a wealthy family.

Rural people aren't stupid. Bang Geng doesn't look down on them, and they don't have any abilities, so they're not suitable partners.

The girls in the village wouldn't even look at someone like Bang Geng.

They didn't want to marry a Korean.

Just because a young girl doesn't like a gangster doesn't mean that young wives don't like the money in a gangster's hands.

In order to get money from Banggeng, they used the same method as Qin Huairu, acting as the older sister to help Banggeng.

To appease Banggeng, the villagers even built him a separate cave dwelling so he wouldn't live with the other educated youth.

The official reason given was to prevent those poor educated youth from taking advantage of the situation.

Banggeng grew up in the Jia family and was influenced by the two widows. He could take advantage of others, but no one could take advantage of him.

Living alone is exactly what Banggeng wants.

He happily moved out of the educated youth compound and into a separate cave dwelling.

After a covert competition, Sister Feng emerged victorious and became Banggeng's older sister.

Sister Feng is a girl from a neighboring village. She is not particularly beautiful, but in the rural areas of Northwest China, she is considered the most beautiful girl in the surrounding villages.

Sister Feng's husband's family lived nearby, and after getting married, she had three children in succession.

In order to support their three children, their family had no choice but to resort to this method to deal with the sticky bug.

Bang Geng, a vigorous young man, was no match for a woman and soon succumbed to her charms.

When it comes to dealing with women, Bang-kyung is no match for Jia Dong-xu; he's more like Sha-zhu—all lust and no guts.

Sister Feng would grab his little hand and rub it against him with a steamed bun, and he would be so happy he would lose his bearings.

"Hey Banggeng, where are your dirty clothes? Let me wash them for you."

Banggeng said with concern, "Sister Feng, I'll wash it myself. If Brother Wei sees you like this, he'll beat you up again."

Sister Feng smiled gently: "It's nothing. If it weren't for you, my children would have starved to death long ago. You are their savior, and you are also my savior."

"I'm not an ungrateful person. Even if I get beaten, I'll still wash your clothes."

Looking at Sister Feng in front of him, Bang Geng thought of Qin Huairu. When he was a child, Qin Huairu had to put on a smiling face for others and help them wash clothes in order to raise him.

As a child, I didn't understand, but now I feel incredibly guilty, and this guilt extends to Sister Feng. (End of Chapter)
