Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

As if by prior arrangement, the three Yan siblings arrived at Nanluoguxiang at the same time.

Yan Jiefang looked at Yan Jiedi and said, "Why are you dressed so poorly? Your brother-in-law is a lowly policeman, he should at least buy you some nice clothes."

Yan Jiedi sized up Yan Jiefang: "Brother, you said it yourself, Luo Hong is just a low-level police officer. How much money can a low-level police officer earn?"

But you, why are you dressed so shabbily?

Yan Jiefang said, "My family's circumstances are like this. This is already the best clothes I have."

Jie Kuang, what about you?

Yan Jiekuang said with a bitter face, "Don't you all know how capable I am?"
I'd be lucky if I could keep my family from starving.

Speaking of which, among us brothers, the eldest is the most capable; he probably has more money in the family than he can ever spend.”

Yan Jiecheng, who had just arrived, was displeased: "What nonsense are you talking about? I work from dawn till dusk and only earn a little money through hard work."

Business is tough these days; I'm not even making enough to pay my workers' wages.

The siblings immediately started arguing as soon as they met.

Yan Jiefang's three younger brothers resented Yan Jiecheng for being Yan Bugui's lackey and joined forces to target Yan Jiecheng.

Yan Jiecheng and his wife were not people who would suffer a loss. They put on a show of working together as a couple, and their strength could break even metal.

The two sides went back and forth, but neither gained any advantage.

After testing him, Yan Jiefang became certain that Yan Jiecheng had not sided with Yan Bugui, and his guard against him lessened.

Yan Jiecheng looked at the three people and said, "How many years has it been since you last came back? You came empty-handed?"

"Didn't you say we wouldn't need to spend any money this time?" Yan Jiefang and the other two said in unison.

Yan Jiecheng dared not give the three men any ammunition. What if Yan Bugui turned on them and made them pay?

These three people will definitely use this as leverage to cause him trouble.

"To correct you, I didn't say that; my parents told me to tell you."

Even if you don't buy anything, you should at least bring the child back. Mom and Dad were saying the other day they missed their grandson.

Yan Jiefang and the others chuckled.

We're all from the Yan family, everyone knows each other.

Once you enter Yan Bugui's door, even the King of Hell will skin you alive.

Even if they had a few times the courage, they wouldn't dare bring their children.

If a child is not careful and eats something from Yan Bugui, they will be the ones responsible for compensating the child.

Based on their understanding of Yan Bugui, this was certainly not a small amount.

Therefore, it's best not to bring the children back.

The siblings exchanged glances and then walked together toward No. 95.

The Yan family's affairs are no secret.

The neighbors all looked over curiously when they saw the Yan family's child return.

Everyone was wondering what had happened to the Yan family.

The only thing I couldn't have imagined was that Yan Bugui had died.

Why don't you suspect Auntie San? It's because she was gossiping with her neighbors all afternoon.

Soon the siblings arrived at courtyard number 95 and went inside.

The courtyard fell silent immediately, everyone staring at Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui's eyes showed some excitement when he saw the children.

The excitement quickly faded.

Because he saw that all of the Yan siblings returned empty-handed.

The children, who hadn't been home for years, finally came back empty-handed.

Where does this leave him to save face?

Fearing that others would laugh at him, Yan Bugui didn't point it out, but simply said, "Let's go inside."

Yan Jiefang and the other two turned to look at Yan Jiecheng, gesturing for him to go in first.

Yan Jiecheng did not refuse. This time, the siblings joined forces and were not afraid of Yan Bugui, so they went in first.

Yan Jiefang and the others saw this and followed him into the Yan family home.

As the Yan family members went inside, the door to the Yan family's house was closed.

Many people wanted to eavesdrop, but they were afraid to go because of the other people around.

At the Intermediate People's Court, Qin Huairu entered Yi Zhonghai's room and told him about the Yan family's child. At this time, Qin Huairu only knew that Yi Zhonghai was counting on her to support him in his old age, and she was unaware that Yi Zhonghai had involved both the Liu and Yan families.

She didn't have any particular thoughts about the Yan family's children returning.

Yi Zhonghai was different; after hearing this, he suddenly stood up.

For the past two days, he hasn't gone to see Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong, because he's been waiting for them to come to him.

He believed that after he exposed the wounds between the two families, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui would immediately take it seriously.

Just like back then, when the deaf old lady mentioned retirement to him, he immediately took it seriously.

Instead of hearing the two men back down, he received news that the Yan family's child had returned.

"What happened? Why are Old Yan's children back all of a sudden?"

Qin Huai told Yi Zhonghai this news because she wanted to hear his opinion.

He hadn't expected Yi Zhonghai's reaction to be so intense.

"So what if you're coming back? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Yi Zhonghai opened his mouth, but immediately realized that he couldn't tell Qin Huairu about this surprise yet.

He wanted to wait until Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui both agreed before telling Qin Huairu the good news.

"I'm just worried about Old Yan. None of the Yan family's children are filial."

They're definitely back with ill intentions. I'm afraid something might happen to Old Yan.

Qin Huairu did not doubt Yi Zhonghai's words and even nodded.

“I’m worried about that too. If the Yan family had even one child as filial as Banggeng, Old Yan wouldn’t have to worry about his future.”

She never forgets to make sure that the "sticky" meme is mentioned.

Qin Huairu knew that the only way to keep Yi Zhonghai in check was through filial piety.

If Yi Zhonghai sees hope for his retirement, he will obediently serve the Jia family like a slave.

Perhaps because he had heard it so often, Yi Zhonghai came to believe her completely.

He secretly hoped that the Yan family's children would be unfilial, but he said aloud, "Isn't that all Old Yan's fault?"

I told him he couldn't scheme against the child like that, but he just wouldn't listen.

They always say that you won't go poor from eating or dressing, but you will go poor if you don't plan ahead.

I bet none of his children will be filial.

When he gets old, there won't be any children to serve him.

Even if he offers to pay, it won't work.

While Qin Huairu was deceiving Yi Zhonghai, Yi Zhonghai didn't forget to deceive Qin Huairu as well.

He kept emphasizing to Qin Huairu that Yan Bugui had no one to support him in his old age, which was an implication that no one wanted Yan Bugui's assets.

He believed that Qin Huairu was a smart man and would understand his meaning.

As long as Qin Huairu has designs on Yan Bugui's assets, he is confident that he can get Qin Huairu to agree to support Yan Bugui in his old age.

Yi Zhonghai was not afraid of Qin Huairu's greed. The more greedy Qin Huairu was, the more she needed to rely on him.

That way, he will have a greater chance of securing his retirement.

Qin Huairu naturally understood Yi Zhonghai's words, but she looked down on Yan Bugui's family fortune.

She didn't think Yan Bugui had much wealth and believed it wasn't worthwhile to support him in his old age.

It's all Yan Bugui's fault for pretending to be poor; he fooled even the shrewd Qin Huairu.

"That's not necessarily true. The Yan family's children, just like Old Yan, are all greedy for money."

"As long as Old Yan is willing to give them money, they will definitely take care of him in his old age."

When Yi Zhonghai heard that Qin Huairu did not respond, he assumed that Qin Huairu was unwilling to support Yan Bugui in his old age, which made him even more depressed.

He wouldn't feel at ease unless he and a few others could support him in his old age.

"If Lao Yan had been willing to give money to the children, they wouldn't have been tricked into leaving with their children."

"Huai Ru, if you pay more attention to the Yan family, you definitely won't suffer in the future."

Yi Zhonghai practically said he would help Qin Huairu eat the Yan family's bloodline.

Unfortunately, Qin Huairu did not agree. When it comes to exploiting the descendants of the deceased, the Jia family is the real expert.

Yi Zhonghai only had experience being eaten, not eating up an entire family's worth of offspring. (End of Chapter)
