Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

After Tang Yanling and the other two shook off the stick, they ran a long way until they reached the nearest restaurant, Xiangpiao Bancheng, before stopping.

The three of them were thirsty and hungry, so they went to Xiangpiao Bancheng to eat.

It was almost lunchtime, and the aroma filled half the city as crowds thronged the streets.

The three of them used their beauty to seduce several innocent young boys and take their places.

The three of them bought some things and then sat there whispering to each other.

Cui Xin took a sip of cola and exclaimed, "So refreshing!"

"Yanling, I'm asking you, do you really want to forgive that big liar Banggeng?"

"No," Tang Yanling answered decisively.

Marrying a Korean guy has already made her lose face in front of her best friend once.

She wouldn't reveal her true intentions this time unless she was absolutely certain.

"As you all know, the Jia family and the He family have a complicated relationship. So, do you think the He family can forgive the Jia family?"

Cui Xin shook her head: "That's definitely not possible. The Jia family has done too many things that have wronged the He family."

Take that exercise for example, if He Yuzhu hadn't returned in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

If you were in their shoes, could you let them off the hook?
He Yuzhu ignoring them was already being merciful enough.

Tang Yanling said, "That's what I thought too. Bang Geng keeps pestering me and won't agree to divorce me. I can only use this trick to make him give up."

Cui Xin agreed with Tang Yanling's idea and actively helped Tang Yanling come up with ideas.

Suddenly, Chai Ning asked, "What if Bang Geng can really ease the tension with the He family?"

Will you make up with Bang Geng?

Without even thinking, Cui Xin retorted, "That's impossible."

“I mean, if,” Chai Ning continued.

Tang Yanling didn't know how to answer. Although that was what she thought, she was unwilling to say it aloud.

Cui Xin glanced at the fragrance that filled half the city and said, "If they can really reconcile with the He family, I think it's worth considering."

Putting everything else aside, just look at how fragrant this place is, it's so popular throughout the city, and the business is booming.

I heard that they're planning to open an even bigger "Fragrant Half City" restaurant near Qianmen.

"If the Jia family could reconcile with the He family, Yanling might be able to get a manager position there."

With Cui Xin's help, Tang Yanling no longer felt so embarrassed.

“If they can really do it, I’ll consider it. After all, I’ve already told Banggeng, and he’s done it, so I can’t go back on my word.”

Saying one thing and meaning another.

These are her two best friends' opinions of Tang Yanling.

The two of them didn't say anything more, but instead started to make their own plans.

There's a saying: birds of a feather flock together.

Tang Yanling's best friends are also two innocent-looking people.

If the Jia family can truly reconcile with the He family, they will definitely prosper in the future.

They need to figure out how to make the most of this opportunity.

The two of them simultaneously thought of getting rid of Tang Yanling and taking over her place.

As for if it fails, let Tang Yanling stay in the fire pit.

"White lotuses" are a group of sophisticated egoists. They never consider others; they only ever think of themselves.

For the sake of profit, even biological parents wouldn't care, let alone a friendship that's as fragile as plastic.

In the face of absolute self-interest, friendship becomes a stepping stone.

Tang Yanling had a pretty good idea of ​​what her best friend was thinking, and felt a pang of regret. She shouldn't have made demands of Bang Geng in front of them.

But she wasn't afraid. Bang Geng was his trained lapdog, and she was confident she wouldn't let Bang Geng escape her control.

Chaoyang Hotel

After Xu Damao finished eating and drinking, he went to the kitchen to chat with Ma Hua and a few others.

"I heard that Jin Youcai's brother is looking for you."

Ma Hua said, "Yes. My master asked him to help me pack some things." Xu Damao asked, "Where are the things? Show them to me."

Ma Hua shook his head: "The things are still with him. The master hasn't come back, and I don't know anything about this. I dare not accept them."

Two days ago, Jin Youcai came to see Ma Hua. Ma Hua went with him to see the antiques.

Because they didn't understand these things, MCA didn't know the specific price and didn't dare to make a decision.

He knew that the Jin family was helping He Yuzhu collect these things, so he took out his own money and gave the Jin family a portion first.

The final price will be decided when He Yuzhu returns.

Upon hearing this, Xu Damao said, "If you don't understand, you can ask Lao Niu. Lao Niu is an expert in this area."

The old ox that Xu Damao mentioned was descended from an official of the previous dynasty. Later, the family fell into poverty and began selling their belongings.

Later, during the movement, I couldn't escape it and was affected.

Xu Damao was a team leader when he went to a meeting and heard about him from others. Later, he met him by chance.

Seeing He Yuzhu buying antiques reminded Xu Damao of this person.
Among the people Xu Damao knew, Lao Niu was relatively knowledgeable about these things.

Ma Hua didn't trust this old ox. The old ox came to see He Yuzhu several times, always keeping a close eye on what He Yuzhu was holding.

"What's the point of finding him? Can he even decide how much those things are worth?"

Xu Damao said nonchalantly, "Those things don't cost much, at most tens of thousands of yuan."

Do you know how much your master spends on a single dinner party in Hong Kong?

"Don't be so stingy."

Ma Hua said, "You're not stingy at all. Why do you need to use a coupon when you come to a restaurant?"

“It’s different,” Xu Damao retorted. “The coupon is something I’m entitled to.”

Ma Hua spat and said, "It was clearly you who shamelessly begged for it."

Xu Damao pointed at Ma Hua: "That was given to me by your master. Ma Hua, I'm not trying to criticize you, but you're just too inflexible."

You're not suited for business.

"He Yuzhu entrusted the Shanghai business to you, so you can expect to lose money."

Ma Hua was unsure about managing the business in Shanghai, but she didn't want to appear weak in front of Xu Damao.

"Losing money has nothing to do with you."

Duan Zicong interrupted their argument with a laugh: "Senior brother, aren't you tired? Xu Damao just finished eating and drinking, and we just finished working."

Ma Hua snorted: "What's the use of being well-fed and watered?"

Xu Damao was somewhat unconvinced, but after comparing the two, he gave up.

He is no match for the MCA.

"I can't be bothered arguing with you. By the way, when are you going to Shanghai?"

Ma Hua said, "I'm leaving the day after tomorrow. My mentor called; he's in Shenzhen discussing some business, and after that, he'll go to Shanghai."

"You mean He Yuzhu is back?" Xu Damao asked in surprise. "How come I didn't know?"

"Who do you think you are? Why would I need to talk to you when my master is back?"

Xu Damao snorted, "I'm not arguing with you. I'll go find He Yuzhu when he gets back."

Xu Damao can hold his own against He Yuzhu in verbal sparring. But he falls short when it comes to arguing with Ma Hua.

After a while, Xu Damao remembered the courtyard house.

He Yuzhu gave his house to Ma Hua to live in. If Ma Hua and his wife go to Shanghai, the house will be empty.

Xu Damao wasn't after He Yuzhu's house; he was afraid someone else would.

"If you two go to Shanghai, what will happen to He Yuzhu's house?"
Don't blame me for not warning you, the Jia family has been scheming to get He Yuzhu's house.

If his house becomes vacant, the Jia family will definitely make a move.

After Banggeng got married, Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu lived in a temporary house, which they found very uncomfortable. The two widows then began to scheme about the house again.

Ma Hua scoffed, "They wouldn't dare. My wife and I go to Shanghai to work, not to live there all the time."

My son is still in Beijing. He'll go back to stay there when he's on vacation.

Ma Hua had already planned all this out and wouldn't give the Jia family a chance. (End of Chapter)
