Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Time flies, and before long Zhang Yan returned from Hong Kong.

She also brought equipment purchased from abroad.

This time, she went to Hong Kong with Lou Xiao'e. The two of them spent several months traveling abroad and finally resolved the issue of production equipment.

On the day she returned, He Yuzhu specially arranged a car to pick her up from the airport, taking Xu Damao and Xu Zhenbao with him.

When Zhang Yan saw Xu Zhenbao, she excitedly ran over and hugged her.

Xu Zhenbao also missed Zhang Yan and held her tightly, refusing to let go.

Xu Damao stood awkwardly to the side. Over the years, he had been trying to prove that he was better than Zhang Yan, but the gap between them had only widened.

He Yuzhu stood aside, not disturbing their family reunion.

Zhang Yan inquired about Xu Zhenbao's situation.

During this period, Xu Zhenbao stayed at Xu Xiaoling's house and went to school with Xu Xiaoling's youngest son.

“My aunt is so good to me. My grandparents and dad visit me often.”

Zhang Yan smiled and said, "That's good. I bought you a lot of things this time. I'll give them to you when we get back."

After calming Xu Zhenbao down, Zhang Yan went straight to He Yuzhu without even glancing at Xu Damao.

"Brother Zhu, everything has been bought and should arrive at Tianjin Port in about three days."

Here are the delivery slips for those items.

He Yuzhu took the delivery note and said with a smile, "Zhang Yan, I really have to thank you and Xiao'e this time."

Zhang Yan said, "If you want to thank someone, you should thank Sister Xiao'e. We owe a lot to her this time; she was the one who handled the negotiations with the other people."

She complains every day in Hong Kong, saying she'll come back and settle accounts with you.

He Yuzhu could imagine Lou Xiao'e gritting her teeth at him.

She would complain about He Yuzhu in the same way when she called him.

Even over the phone, you could feel her anger.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go back first and have a welcome dinner for you at the Chaoyang Hotel."

The group got into the car and returned to the Chaoyang Hotel.

Inside the restaurant, Lin Jinghan was already waiting for Zhang Yan.

When Zhang Yan saw Lin Jinghan, she ran over and whispered something to her.

Xu Damao didn't go over; instead, he followed He Yuzhu to the office.

Seeing his listless appearance, He Yuzhu asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing much?" Xu Damao replied absentmindedly.

Judging from his expression, He Yuzhu guessed it was because of Zhang Yan's matter.

He planned to persuade Xu Damao: "If you ask me, you should find an opportunity to talk to Zhang Yan and get them to remarry."

In the past two years, many people have pursued Zhang Yan, but she has never accepted any of them.

Isn't her meaning obvious?

Do you really expect Zhang Yan to take the initiative to speak up in this kind of situation?

Xu Damao said dejectedly, "You don't understand. I..."

He Yuzhu was unhappy. There was nothing in this world that He Yuzhu didn't understand.

Xu Damao felt he was losing face and wanted to surpass Zhang Yan before remarrying her.

"What do you mean, 'you'? You think remarrying Zhang Yan is like being a kept man? Didn't you marry her back then by being a kept man too?"

Xu Damao stood up angrily: "You're talking nonsense. When did I ever live off a woman?"

"Pah!" He Yuzhu said without any politeness, "I'm not stupid."

Back then, Uncle Xu initially wanted you to marry Lou Xiao'e, but the Lou family wasn't happy about it.

Zhang Yan was found for you later.

When you married Zhang Yan and spent her dowry, didn't you feel embarrassed?

Xu Damao, let me tell you, stop playing tricks all the time.

If you don't want to be looked down upon by others, then be a down-to-earth person and do things honestly.

Xu Damao wanted nothing more than to beat He Yuzhu up, but after comparing their strength, he helplessly sat down on the sofa.

In another room, Zhang Yan opened her suitcase and was distributing things to everyone. "Sister-in-law Jinghan, this is for you. All the wealthy ladies in Hong Kong use this cosmetics."

Lin Jinghan took it, glanced at it, and didn't take it to heart.

These cosmetics were just so-so; they didn't hold much appeal for her.

Lou Xiao'e also had a lot of cosmetics brought to her, but none of them were as good as the ones He Yuzhu gave her.

The cosmetics that Lin Jinghan usually uses are all taken out of her space by He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu added spiritual spring water to these cosmetics, making them far more effective than those sold outside.

In fact, it wasn't just Lin Jinghan who used cosmetics that He Yuzhu provided.

The cosmetics Zhang Yan and the others were using were the same ones He Yuzhu had provided. The ones they had were all gifts from Lin Jinghan.

Zhang Yan didn't care. In fact, she didn't think much of these cosmetics and felt that they were not as good as the ones she got from Lin Jinghan.

If she hadn't been in Hong Kong and used up all the cosmetics she brought with her, she wouldn't be using these.

"I know you don't use these, so you can keep them as gifts. I don't like using these either, so the ones you gave me are much better."

Lin Jinghan smiled and said, "Okay. I'll get you a copy from home tomorrow."

Zhang Yan smiled and said, "That's wonderful."

The two then started whispering about other things.

Feeling a bit bored sitting there alone, Xu Zhenbao went to He Yuzhu's office.

Xu Damao was afraid that He Yuzhu would bring up the topic of remarriage in front of her, so she gave He Yuzhu several meaningful glances.

He Yuzhu didn't want to be the bad guy, so he didn't mention it in front of Xu Zhenbao.

“Zhenbao, come here and sit with Uncle He.”

Xu Zhenbao let go of Xu Damao's hand and sat down opposite He Yuzhu.

"Uncle He, what do you want to tell me?"

Xu Damao thought He Yuzhu was going to bring up the topic of remarriage, so he stood up and interfered, saying, "My daughter's affairs are none of your business."

He Yuzhu glared at him: "What business is it of yours here?"

When Xu Damao saw He Yuzhu's appearance, he instinctively wanted to hide.

Xu Zhenbao saw this and covered her mouth to chuckle.

He Yuzhu turned to Xu Zhenbao and asked, "How are your studies going?"

Xu Zhenbao said, "Uncle He, don't worry, I'm doing very well in my studies."

Xu Damao breathed a sigh of relief: "My daughter's grades are excellent, she will definitely get into Peking University or Tsinghua University."

He Yuzhu ignored him and said to Xu Zhenbao, "Don't pay attention to your dad. When he was a child, he skipped school every few days."

His biggest dream back then was to skip school and learn how to project movies from your grandfather.

Xu Zhenbao smiled and said, "I know. My grandparents told me."

Xu Damao looked embarrassed and complained that He Yuzhu had exposed his shortcomings. He didn't dare to complain about Xu Fugui and his wife. The couple wanted to slap Xu Damao whenever they saw him.

Originally, Xu Damao was unfilial and never visited Xu Fugui.

It's not that I'm being unfilial, it's that I'm afraid of being beaten, so I don't dare to go.

Xu Fugui and his wife didn't bother with him; all their attention was focused on Xu Zhenbao.

Although the couple regretted that Xu Zhenbao was not a boy, he was the only child in the Xu family, and no matter how unhappy they were, they could only cherish him as their precious treasure.

Liu Lan knocked on the door and came in: "Ma Hua said the dishes are all prepared and waiting for you to cook."

He Yuzhu stood up and said to Xu Damao, "You guys go to the private room first. I'll go cook some dishes to welcome your wife home."

Liu Lan smiled at Xu Damao: "Your husband is here, so hurry up and serve him properly."

Xu Damao knew she was joking, so he said, "Liu Lan, I'm a customer now, and the customer is king. Believe it or not, I'll sue you."

Liu Lan wasn't afraid of him at all, and threatened, "Go ahead if you dare. I'll talk to Zhang Yan about your meal at the restaurant later."

Xu Damao pointed at Liu Lan, but didn't dare to say a single strong word.

This guy comes to the restaurant and often stares at the pretty waitresses.

Liu Lan, the lobby manager, noticed this several times. (End of Chapter)
