Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Chapter 1738 Finding Xu Damao to do work
A thunderclap in the clear sky.

Bang Geng felt like his world had collapsed.

Today, taking advantage of his status as a minor shareholder of Yuefeng Hotel, he held Tang Yanling's hand and took her sightseeing in Beijing all day.

On the way, he also met some of Tang Yanling's friends, who all knew his identity.

The envious looks they gave me back then still echo in Bang Geng's mind.

He was about to ask how many shares the family owned.

He was told that he had nothing to do with the shares of Yuefeng Hotel.

How was he supposed to explain this to Tang Yanling?

After Tang Yanling finds out, will she still date him?
"What is that bastard Yi Zhonghai good for? Can't he even handle this little thing?"
If he can't even handle this small thing, what's the point of keeping him in our family?

Faced with Banggeng's questioning, Qin Huairu was speechless.

The reason for keeping Yi Zhonghai on the side was naturally for the sake of Yi Zhonghai's family fortune.

But this cannot be explained to the child.

She also needs to maintain the image of a good mother. There are some things she can do, but she can't say.

After listening to Bang Geng's words, Jia Zhangshi felt they made a lot of sense. Their family was already struggling; why should they continue to support a useless old man?

"Qin Huairu, didn't you hear what Banggeng said? Go find Yi Zhonghai and tell him to reflect on his actions."

If you can't even handle this small matter, you might as well divorce him.

"I can even get half of his assets in a divorce."

Thinking back to how much Miao Cuilan had taken with her during their divorce, Jia Zhangshi felt this idea was the best.

Qin Huairu could certainly guess what Jia Zhangshi was thinking. But he knew that the possibility was slim.

After she married Yi Zhonghai, she searched his house thoroughly but couldn't find where he kept his money.

If she were to actually file for divorce from Yi Zhonghai, he certainly wouldn't reveal the details of their assets.

If I divorce Yi Zhonghai now, I'll at most get half of his house.

Divorce means that the family property is divided equally between the two parties.

Back then, the older woman was unemployed and had no money, so she naturally received Yi Zhonghai's money.

She's different from other middle-aged women. All the money she's earned over the years has been saved in the bank.

If they divorce, she might have to give Yi Zhonghai a share of the money, which would be the death of her.

Qin Huairu dared not say she wouldn't divorce him, fearing Jia Zhangshi would throw a tantrum. Her only recourse was to cry and feign grievance.

Before crying, she winked at Xiaohua when no one was looking.

Xiao Huaihua's cleverness is most like Qin Huairu's.

She understood what Qin Huairu meant and said, "Grandma, Yi Zhonghai also receives a pension every month."

Madam Jia also remembered, opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing.

Yi Zhonghai still gives her five yuan a month as a pension. If they really get divorced, that five yuan will be gone.

Bang Geng was not satisfied: "I've already told Yanling that our family will be shareholders of Yuefeng Hotel from now on."

It didn't work out now, how am I supposed to tell her?

If Yanling breaks up with me, then it's your problem.

Banggeng is the heir apparent of the Jia family. When the heir apparent is angry, only Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu dare to persuade him.

At Jia Zhangshi's age, she has no other ambitions; her biggest dream is for Banggeng to get married as soon as possible.

She used to always call others childless, never imagining that the Jia family would soon become childless as well.

How could she face the ancestors of the Jia family after this?

"Qin Huairu, you shameless bastard, stop pretending to cry."

"Think of a solution quickly."

Qin Huai wiped away her tears and said aggrievedly, "Yan Jiecheng is not willing, what am I supposed to do?"

Even when three old men came together, they couldn't take him down, I..."

"Useless trash," Jia Zhangshi cursed without any politeness.

This is what she thinks.

In her eyes, Qin Huairu was a complete waste of space.

She has such a pretty face, but she hasn't brought any benefits to her family.

Of all the promising men in the courtyard, she ended up hanging herself on that wretched old man, Yi Zhonghai. If it weren't for the fact that Banggeng and his children were at home, Jia Zhangshi would have given Qin Huairu a good scolding.

Banggeng raised his head and said, "If he won't let us invest, then we'll just open our own restaurant."

"Why can Sha Zhu and Yan Jiecheng open it, but we can't?"

Open your own restaurant?

They had considered this idea before.

The problem is, who will pay for the restaurant?

These two widows from the Jia family, despite their seemingly enthusiastic attitude, would absolutely refuse to spend any money themselves.

If they were willing to invest, the restaurant would have opened long ago.

Neither of them spoke, and Bang Geng, angry, ran back to his room to sleep.

In the following days, the biggest joke in the courtyard was about the three old men opening a restaurant.

Upon hearing the news, Xu Damao rushed to the restaurant to share it with He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu wasn't surprised at all after hearing this.

Back when Sha Zhu was around, the people in the courtyard stopped buying into the three old men's games.

It was just those few old men who were still playing the game.

If the people in the hospital were willing to listen, they would have already held a hospital-wide meeting to teach Sha Zhu a lesson.

Instead of the three old men taking turns trying to persuade Sha Zhu, they actually went to beg him.

However, people will say that they are using the guise of supporting Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu.

At that time, Lou Xiao'e was too arrogant and didn't take their little tricks seriously.

If she were more down-to-earth and used mutual benefits to win over Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui, Sha Zhu would have broken up with Qin Huairu long ago.

It might be difficult to get these two people to do good deeds.

But when it comes to sabotage, they're absolutely adept.

Yan Bugui, in particular, stood guard at the gate every day, memorizing all the dirty secrets about the people in the courtyard.

If he exposes those dirty secrets, even if Sha Zhu doesn't completely break with Qin Huairu, he won't listen to Qin Huairu as much.

Throughout their lives, thanks to He Yuzhu's sabotage, the power disparity among the three of them has widened considerably.

A few years ago, it was ignored by everyone.

Seeing that He Yuzhu had no expression at all, Xu Damao said, "What's wrong? Why don't you care?"

He Yuzhu said, "What's there to care about? Don't they know what era we live in? Three old geezers, still trying to use their power to oppress people."

Xu Damao said, "You're right. If I hadn't gone to see my parents yesterday, I would have given them a good dressing down."

He Yuzhu asked, "How are Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu's health?"

Xu Damao still had a headache when he recalled yesterday's experience: "It was fine. Yesterday, he chased me for half a block."

He Yuzhu knew without asking that it was definitely because of Zhang Yan.

This is what the elderly couple in the Xu family are most worried about now. They desperately hope that Xu Damao can remarry Zhang Yan as soon as possible.

He Yuzhu also wanted to help Xu Damao, so he said, "I've acquired two plots of land near Dongzhimen and am preparing to build a factory there."

"Are you willing to do the work of leveling the land?"

Xu Damao said, "Let's do it, of course we'll do it. How big is the area? I'll go find people."

He Yuzhu took out the land certificate and told him the location: "When the time comes, find more villagers nearby, that will save you a lot of trouble."

I'll take you to see that place tomorrow.

Xu Damao pulled He Yuzhu: "Don't wait until tomorrow. Let's go today."

Didn't you plan to start work in the spring?

I'll level the ground for you as soon as possible.

Having no other choice, He Yuzhu drove Xu Damao there.

He Yuzhu then found some villagers from the surrounding area to help keep an eye on things.

Xu Damao was a shrewd man, and he quickly reached an agreement with those people.

When it's time to get to work, have them send someone over.
