Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

He Yuzhu spent another three days in Japan. During these three days, he didn't idle around, but instead went to do something important.

The first thing was to get some more gold from the Bank of Japan.

Having learned from the experience with the Federal Reserve, He Yuzhu was very careful this time, and the bank did not notice.

The second thing was that he went to Sumitomo Electric Industries, a subsidiary of the Sumitomo Group, which was the company where Tomoo Kitagawa originally worked.

He Yuzhu brought the company's core documents and asked them to be packaged.

This can be seen as helping Kitagawa Tomoo vent his anger.

After doing all this, He Yuzhu boarded a plane from Tokyo to Beijing.

After leaving Beijing Airport, I got into a car.

Lin Jinghan couldn't wait to ask, "How is Yuanting?"

"America is so chaotic, won't it affect her? If I had known America was so chaotic, I shouldn't have let her study there."

He Yuzhu chuckled inwardly; the real culprit behind America's chaos was himself.

"Alright, don't worry. Yuanting has someone protecting her, there won't be any problems."

Lin Jinghan rolled her eyes at He Yuzhu, dissatisfied: "You still have to talk. America is so chaotic, and you, as her father, are still traveling everywhere."

Do you think this is reasonable?

He Yuzhu was indeed in the wrong and couldn't explain himself to her, so he could only listen to her scolding.

After Lin Jinghan got tired of talking, He Yuzhu explained, "Don't worry, I've arranged everything."

She left all the people she brought with her. I only brought Yang Yutao with me.

Hearing this, Lin Jinghan became even angrier: "I haven't even said anything to you yet. America is so dangerous, and you're just wandering around with someone."

Don't you know your family is worried about you?

Then came the relentless nagging, until they got home, and only then did Lin Jinghan let He Yuzhu off the hook.

He Yuzhu waited until she calmed down before daring to speak: "Did anything happen while I was away?"

Lin Jinghan had calmed down by now and said slowly, "The matter with our eldest son has been settled. We're just waiting for you to come back so the two families can meet."

He Yuzhu said, "So fast. We'll set a time when that brat gets back."

"What do you mean 'fast'? Don't you even know how old he is? He's almost thirty." Lin Jinghan rolled her eyes at He Yuzhu again.

He Yuzhu felt somewhat aggrieved. He couldn't really blame himself for his eldest son not getting married.

He was very supportive of his son's marriage. Regardless of the other person's family background, as long as he was willing, He Yuzhu had no objections.

The problem is that He Yuanhang doesn't have time.

I entered university through the college entrance examination in 1977, and then went on to pursue a master's degree. By the time I graduated with my master's degree, it had been 84 years.

After graduation, he first went to the State Economic and Trade Commission, and later was seconded to the State Council.

Because of his good performance, he was promoted to the rank of section chief, but this also delayed his personal matters.

His family did introduce him to potential partners, but after several meetings, nothing came of it.

After finishing talking about her family, Lin Jinghan brought up the matter of the courtyard house.

There were two main things happening at the courtyard house: Xiao Huaihua's wedding and the news of Tang Yanling's pregnancy.

He Yuzhu was not surprised at all by Xiao Huaihua's marriage.

That girl, Huaihua, inherited Qin Huairu's intelligence. Qin Huairu couldn't stop her from doing what she wanted.

In Sha Zhu's lifetime, Qin Huairu once complained to him that she did not agree to Huaihua's marriage to Chen Kai.

Qin Huairu's idea was to have Sha Zhu step forward and refuse the marriage proposal.

Even though Sha Zhu is the villain who breaks up the couple, Qin Huairu can still be a good mother.

Sha Zhu had no prejudice against any particular group; after listening to Qin Huairu's words, he even showed his support for Huaihua.

Qin Huairu was naturally unhappy and used several tricks to deal with Sha Zhu.

Finally, Sha Zhu used their marriage as an example to shut Qin Huairu up.

There's no way around it; if we're talking about mismatched couples, Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu are the most mismatched.

At that time, Lou Xiao'e was still involved between the two.

Qin Huairu dared not argue with Sha Zhu any further, fearing he would realize his mistake, so she could only reluctantly agree to the marriage. Xiao Huaihua's timing in proposing the marriage was also quite good. Not only did it get Qin Huairu to agree, but it also kicked Xiao Dang out of the house.

It's impossible to say that she didn't have her little schemes.

He Yuzhu was somewhat surprised by Tang Yanling's pregnancy.

In her previous life, Tang Yanling and Banggeng had a good relationship. The couple spent every day together and never bothered with anything related to the courtyard house.

The couple had a child soon after they got married.

This life is different. That couple's life became turbulent after they got married, and they were apart for long periods of time.

"Is the child a 'stick'?"

Lin Jinghan laughed after hearing He Yuzhu's words: "You and Xu Damao are quite in sync."

He asked the same question when he heard the news.

He Yuzhu also laughed.

He Yuzhu wasn't surprised at all by Xu Damao's guess. That's just his personality.

"Stop laughing. Tang Yanling doesn't live in the courtyard house anymore, and suddenly she has a child. Who wouldn't be suspicious?"

Lin Jinghan said, "Don't doubt it. Judging from Banggeng's appearance, there shouldn't be any problem."

Didn't Tang Yanling go back and stay for two days a while ago?
That's when the child was conceived.

He Yuzhu asked in bewilderment, "It can't be such a coincidence. You can get pregnant just by staying at home for one day?"

Lin Jinghan explained, "I don't know the specifics either. Anyway, from what Xu Damao said, neither Qin Huairu nor Jia Zhangshi objected."

The two were overjoyed to hear the news that Tang Yanling was pregnant.

The two even went to Tang Yanling's parents' home to bring her back to their courtyard house.

"Did she go back?" He Yuzhu asked curiously.

Bang Geng's son is no good either; he's even worse than Bang Geng.

If it's said that Banggeng was corrupted by Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu, then Banggeng's son was corrupted by the two widows, Tang Yanling, and his two aunts.

That kid wasn't close to Sha Zhu at all back then, but he was especially close to Yi Zhonghai.

In his later years, Yi Zhonghai's favorite thing to do was play with his son, Banggeng.

He argued with Jia Zhangshi several times because of this. Jia Zhangshi even blocked his door and berated him for several days.

Even so, it couldn't change the fact that Yi Zhonghai was with that kid.

At the time, everyone said that Yi Zhonghai liked that kid.

He Yuzhu looked at Sha Zhu's memories and discovered that he didn't like that kid; he just wanted to use him as a hostage.

Yi Zhonghai used the same tactics he used on Sha Zhu on that kid.

He hoped that the boy would burn incense for him during festivals.

Unfortunately, his methods worked on Sha Zhu, but had no effect on the Jia family.

After Yi Zhonghai died, Sha Zhu arranged his funeral. The boy didn't cry once at Yi Zhonghai's funeral hall; instead, he laughed very happily.

Sha Zhu prepared tribute wine for Yi Zhonghai, but that kid spilled it all.

Lin Jinghan looked at He Yuzhu with a strange expression: "You're not indifferent to things about the courtyard houses. Why are you so interested now?"

He Yuzhu said with a smile, "I just wanted to know how Yi Zhonghai's retirement plan is going."

Now that Banggeng has a son, his retirement should be even more perfect.

Lin Jinghan didn't believe He Yuzhu's words. She felt that He Yuzhu's purpose was not so simple.

However, she didn't dwell on it and said, "Tang Yanling did go back. Taking advantage of her pregnancy, she's been causing trouble for Qin Huairu everywhere."

Qin Huairu then shifted these troubles onto Yi Zhonghai.

According to Xu Damao, Yi Zhonghai's relationship with Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui has recently soured.

What kind of logic is this?

Now that Banggeng has a son, can he still sow discord among the three old men? (End of Chapter)
