Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Yan Bugui was so angry that he couldn't sleep well all night after being ignored by Duan Zicong yesterday.

I thought about having a chat with Yi Zhonghai while I was eating breakfast this morning.

This is a habit I've developed over many years.

If he suffers a loss, he can go to Yi Zhonghai. Yi Zhonghai will not let him down and will help him stand up for himself and get his revenge.

When Yan Bugui arrived at Yi Zhonghai's door and heard the sounds coming from inside, he dared not go in.

He was with Yi Zhonghai every day and knew very well what Yi Zhonghai was thinking.

Yi Zhonghai has been trying to brainwash Bang Geng to make him more filial.

If he dares to go in and disturb Yi Zhonghai, Yi Zhonghai will eat him alive.

After listening for a while at Yi Zhonghai's door, Yan Bugui shook his head, revealing an expression of disapproval.

In his view, the most important thing in educating children is to let them know that you reap what you sow.

Yi Zhonghai should tell Banggeng how much he helped the Jia family.

Without Yi Zhonghai, there would be no Jia family as we know it today.

As the only boy in the Jia family, Banggeng should step forward to repay this kindness.

returning a Favour many times more.

This is the right path.

Knowing that Yi Zhonghai wouldn't finish speaking in a short time, Yan Bugui returned home disappointed.

The three women asked, "What did Lao Yi say?"

"He's disciplining Bang Geng right now, so I didn't go in," Yan Bugui said.

The three women said, "It's good that you didn't go in. The Duan family doesn't live in the same courtyard as us, so it's no use you going to find Old Yi."

Few people in our courtyard listen to Old Yi, let alone in other courtyards.

When we talk about Yi Zhonghai, aren't we also talking about Yan Bugui?

Therefore, Yan Bugui was extremely angry when he heard what the third aunt said.

"Long hair, short brains, what do you know?"

After scolding the three aunties, Yan Bugui turned to leave.

The three women were all confused, wondering what they had done to offend Yan Bugui: "Where are you going? Aren't you going to eat?"

"I'm going out for a walk. I'll leave my food here and eat it at noon."

Yan Bugui gave the instructions without turning his head.

Although he couldn't stand what the third aunt was saying, Yan Bugui was also very clear about it.

The words of those three old men were only somewhat useful within the courtyard house.

Once they step out of this door, no one will pay them any attention.

Even at the height of their power, few people outside listened to them.

There's no point in asking Yi Zhonghai about the conflict with Duan Zicong.

If we're going to look for someone, we should go find Ran Qiuye.

Ran Qiuye is sensitive about saving face, so if he goes to find him personally, Ran Qiuye will definitely make Duan Zicong apologize to him.

Duan Zicong went to Jin Youcai's house in the morning and asked Jin Youcai to go with him to see He Yuzhu.

After finishing this matter, he went home and had dinner with Ran Qiuye.

The couple were having dinner when Yan Bugui appeared.

Yan Bugui's eyes were glued to the things on the Duan family's table.

"Teacher Ran, Zicong, are you eating?"

Duan Zicong didn't want to talk to him, so he didn't say anything.

Ran Qiuye thought that since they were colleagues before, she couldn't ignore Yan Bugui, so she stood up and greeted him.

"Teacher Yan, have you eaten?"

Yan Bugui laughed upon hearing this; it was a good question. He then sat down to have a hearty breakfast at the Duan family's house.

"I haven't eaten yet."

“If you haven’t eaten, then you should go home and eat,” Duan Zicong’s son, Duan Kaixiang, said as he looked up.

I learned this phrase from He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu once ran into Xu Damao and, disgusted by Xu Damao's shamelessness, said this to him.

Duan Kaixiang remembered what He Yuzhu had done when he was with him.

Seeing Yan Bugui's appearance and remembering the time Yan Bugui had eaten at their house before, Duan Kaixiang said those words.

Actually, everyone in the family knew that Yan Bugui's goal was to take advantage of them. They just didn't say it out of politeness.

Yan Bugui stood there somewhat awkwardly, unsure whether to stay or leave.

Ran Qiuye glared at her son immediately: "You're so rude! Who taught you to say that?"

"That's what the advisor taught me."

Duan Kaixiang was afraid of Ran Qiuye and feared being scolded, so he pulled He Yuzhu out.

Upon hearing that He Yuzhu was the one who taught her, Ran Qiuye didn't know what to say.

He Yuzhu is not only Duan Zicong's mentor, but also her savior.

If it weren't for He Yuzhu, she would have had a hard time getting through those ten years safely.

The good life our family enjoys now is also thanks to He Yuzhu.

Ran Qiuye had no choice but to apologize to Yan Bugui herself: "The child is too young and doesn't understand. Teacher Yan, please don't mind."

Yan Bugui felt that the sentence was familiar, and soon he realized why.

Qin Huairu was saying the same thing to Yi Zhonghai just a few days ago. She said Banggeng was young and told Yi Zhonghai not to mind.

At the time, Yan Bugui was so engrossed in watching the spectacle surrounding Yi Zhonghai that he didn't pay attention to those words.

When those words were spoken about him, he suddenly felt somewhat aggrieved.

Duan Kaixiang is nineteen years old this year and is a college student. You still tell him that the child is young and doesn't understand.

Before Yan Bugui could speak, Duan Zicong suddenly said to the two children, "Kaixiang, Siyi, you two pack up the breakfast."

The two children were quick-witted and immediately began tidying up the table.

Yan Bugui looked at the two children's quick and efficient movements and felt somewhat helpless.

This made him hate Duan Zicong even more.

"Qiuye, I came to see you today to talk about Zicong."

Last night, I tried to talk to him nicely, but he just ignored me without saying a word.

This is absolutely outrageous!

Upon hearing this, Ran Qiuye became somewhat dissatisfied with Yan Bugui. Why would he come to her house to badmouth her husband?

Upon hearing this, Duan Zicong immediately stood up and said to Yan Bugui, "Teacher Yan, don't push your luck."

You call my master by his nickname right in front of me, and you still have the nerve to say that?

"If it weren't for your age, I would have slapped you across the face long ago."

Seeing Duan Zicong get angry, Yan Bugui was so frightened that he kept backing away until he reached the doorway before he stopped.

“You… Sha Zhu was given that name by He Daqing, why can’t I call him that?”

Duan Zicong spat and said, "Who do you think you are? What right do you have to call my master by his nickname?"

In courtyard number 87, many people came out of their houses after hearing the commotion.

After they understood the situation, they all pointed and whispered at Yan Bugui.

Because of Grandma Duan, the residents of No. 87 had a very good impression of He Yuzhu.

They changed their way of addressing him long ago and stopped calling him by his nickname.

They looked down on all three old men in courtyard number 95.

Seeing this, Yan Bugui felt extremely helpless and regretted coming to complain.

In the end, he could only slink away.

Just outside No. 87 courtyard, Yan Bugui saw Jin Youcai and his wife pulling a flatbed cart loaded with many boxes and several mahogany chairs.

Yan Bugui knew that all these things were obtained by He Yuzhu with the help of the Jin family.

Why would Jin Youcai want to transport these things out?

Yan Bugui suspected that these things were meant for He Yuzhu. He hid to the side and then saw Jin Youcai enter the courtyard at No. 87.

After a while, Yan Bugui saw Duan Zicong and Jin Youcai come out together.

Duan Zicong was also holding hands with his and Ran Qiuye's youngest daughter, Duan Siyi.

Duan Siyi's little face was full of excitement: "Dad, what gifts did the advisor bring me?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Bugui immediately realized that his guess was correct; He Yuzhu had returned.

Knowing he wouldn't gain anything by staying, he turned and ran towards No. 95 Courtyard, where he ran into Xu Damao.

Xu Damao asked curiously, "Were you chased by a dog?"

Yan Bugui, having no time to argue with Xu Damao, went straight back to courtyard number 95. (End of Chapter)
