Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

The two had quite a fight, and the courtyard was buzzing with discussion.

When Ma Hua learned of this, he immediately informed He Yuzhu.

"Master, Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui are like they're possessed. They haven't been doing business for the past two days. They're also arguing all the time."

Moreover, Yan Bugui sought me out mysteriously; he had something very important to tell you.

He Yuzhu asked, "Did he say what it was about?"

Ma Hua shook his head: "I told him to tell me, and then I'll tell you."

Do you want to see him?

Maybe he really does have something important to do.

He Yuzhu laughed heartily: "Do you think those old men could have anything important to say?"

Ma Hua honestly replied, "I can't think of anything. But I'm just afraid of what might happen."

“There’s no chance of anything going wrong,” He Yuzhu said firmly.

Having the memories of Sha Zhu, He Yuzhu is very clear that the theme of the courtyard is only one thing: Yi Zhonghai's retirement problem.

To elaborate further, it's about Qin Huairu's difficult life.

This issue is directly related to Yi Zhonghai's views on elderly care.

Qin Huairu's life was not easy, so she couldn't take care of Yi Zhonghai in his old age and couldn't let Yi Zhonghai be the old patriarch of the courtyard.

Aside from these two issues, there are no other problems.

It's not a problem that Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui's children are unfilial; it's not a problem that Qin Jingru and Xu Damao are divorced; it's even less of a problem that Shazhu's biological son cannot acknowledge him.

Under the weight of Yi Zhonghai's retirement issues, all other problems are nothing but monsters and demons that should be overthrown.

Yi Zhonghai needs to work with Yan Bugui to ensure his retirement is secure. At this point, he won't turn against Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui is a coward; he probably doesn't have the guts to completely break with Yi Zhonghai.

They are like a wolf and a jackal.

Even without Sha Zhu's memories, He Yuzhu could guess from his understanding of them that the two wouldn't really fall out.

MCA, however, was not as resolute as Ho Yu Chu: "But what if something really happens?"

He Yuzhu countered, "What else do you think could happen in a courtyard house?"

Besides a few houses there, what else do I have to worry about?

Ma Hua was taken aback, then realized that what He Yuzhu said made a lot of sense.

Aside from a few rooms, He Yuzhu really had nothing to miss about the courtyard house.

With He Yuzhu's current wealth, why would he care about those two houses?

There's absolutely no need for it.

Ma Hua said, "Then I will decline Yan Bugui's offer."

He Yuzhu said, "You don't need to tell me about things like this in the future."

I'm planning to buy a few apartments today. They're located in the southern part of the area.

We'll save you a room then, you can move in there too.

The courtyard houses there are too eerie; it's not a good place to live.

Ma Hua was both longing and embarrassed: "Master, I don't have enough money on me."

He Yuzhu said, "You don't need to give me any money. The house is a gift to you."

Ma Hua, who is usually obedient, refused this time. He firmly said, "Master, I can't accept it. You've already given me so much."

Besides, it's not fair for you to take such good care of me. People will talk about it if they find out.

He Yuzhu thought that if he followed him, he could earn more money in the future.

But after thinking about it, there's no need for that.

"Okay, then consider that money a loan. Pay it back slowly when you have the money. Remember, don't tell anyone."

After Ma Hua left, He Yuzhu forgot all about Yan Bugui's words.

He Yuzhu knew more about what happened in the courtyard house than Yan Bugui did.

He didn't believe that Yan Bugui had anything that would warrant his involvement.

Yan Bugui was getting anxious. He couldn't find He Yuzhu at the restaurant, nor could he find him at the construction site.

Without finding He Yuzhu, his plan to get rich cannot be carried out.

"Da Mao, did you tell Zhu Zi? Look, I've even changed how I address him."

Xu Damao sneered inwardly, "Why didn't you do this sooner?"

“Uncle Yan, I also want to speak to him on your behalf, but I can’t see him. He’s away on a business trip these past two days. I’ll definitely talk to him when he gets back.”

Xu Damao was too lazy to come up with a complicated reason, so he just made up one.

Unfortunately, Yan Bugui saw him with He Yuzhu yesterday.

Yan Bugui approached He Yuzhu using a two-pronged approach.

On the one hand, he asked Xu Damao and MCA people to pass on a message to He Yuzhu, and on the other hand, he went to see He Yuzhu in person.

Yesterday, he found out the location of the construction site and walked there.

Unfortunately, he was getting old and didn't have the strength. When he was almost at the construction site, He Yuzhu drove away with Xu Damao.

He Yuzhu's car window was open at the time.

Yan Bugui remembered He Yuzhu's license plate and saw the two of them.

He was standing on the roadside shouting, and it's unclear whether the two people didn't hear him or did it on purpose, but they didn't stop.

"You think you can fool me? Yesterday morning at 11 o'clock, you left the construction site in Zhu Zi's car. I saw you on the roadside."

Xu Damao was taken aback by what he said. He really hadn't noticed Yan Bugui yesterday.

He Yuzhu didn't notice either.

Neither of them could have imagined that Yan Bugui would travel such a long distance to find He Yuzhu.

Keep in mind that the place was quite a distance from the bus stop.

Xu Damao wasn't embarrassed and said, "Uncle Yan, you saw it, so why did you have to say it out loud?"

If Brother Zhu doesn't agree, it means he doesn't want to see you.

If you hadn't said anything, no one would have known, and it wouldn't have been so awkward.

Several onlookers nearby covered their mouths and laughed.

Yan Bugui glared angrily at Xu Damao, unsure of what to say.

He had actually guessed this fact long ago, but he was unwilling to believe it.

He thought that He Yuzhu would be interested in his words.

He had argued with Yi Zhonghai several times just to see He Yuzhu. Wasn't that enough to show his stance?

Why is He Yuzhu avoiding him?

He's not a bad person.

Yan Bugui didn't want to become a laughing stock, and he didn't want to give up.

He finally resorted to a threat: "Do you know how important it is that I'm looking for him this time?"

Xu Damao didn't care. He didn't think Yan Bugui could be doing anything that was important.

He knew Yan Bugui's personality quite well.

For Yan Bugui, nothing is more important than taking advantage of others.

The important things he talks about are nothing more than how to gain an advantage.

Is it worth He Yuzhu wasting his time on the little things Yan Bugui is scheming for?

"You keep saying you have something important to do, but what exactly is it that's so important? Just tell me."

"I..." Yan Bugui dared not say it.

This was an idea he had come up with with great difficulty. If he said it aloud, it might not work.

It should be noted that the return of the cellar was something Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu had agreed to.

They agreed verbally, but they never cleaned the cellar. The cellar was still full of the Jia family's belongings.

More importantly, the person who truly held power in the Jia family was Jia Zhangshi.

Jia Zhangshi has not yet said anything about returning the cellar to He Yuzhu.

Yan Bugui knew very well that it was unlikely he would return the cellar to He Yuzhu.

He sought out He Yuzhu to tell her about his efforts and to remind her of his kindness.

Whether He Yuzhu could get the cellar from Jia Zhangshi was actually not important.

"If you don't want to help, fine. But let me tell you, if you delay Zhu Zi's important matter, he won't let you off the hook."

Xu Damao scoffed, "Stop being so mysterious. Brother Zhu is so busy every day, he doesn't have time to talk to you."

Also, he asked me to tell you not to bother Uncle He.

If you go any further, he'll call the police and have you arrested. (End of Chapter)
