Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

After lunch, He Yuzhu and Uncle Fu continued to pack. It was not until four o'clock in the afternoon that they had packed everything. Small items such as porcelain alone filled eight large boxes, not to mention large items such as tables and chairs.

He Yuzhu frowned and said, "Uncle Fu, there are too many things. We must find a car to transport them."

Uncle Fu smiled and said, "Zhu Zi, there is a tricycle and a cart in the utility room."

He Yuzhu said with a delighted look on his face, "Great, both of these cars can be used."

Uncle Fu said in embarrassment: "There are only two of us, and we only need one cart. One person is needed to pull the cart, and another person has to follow behind to watch."

He Yuzhu said calmly, "This is easy to solve. I have four apprentices. I'll ask them to come and help me move in the evening."

Hearing this, Uncle Fu smiled and said, "That's great!"

"Uncle Fu, I will go and inform my four apprentices now. We will gather here at nine o'clock in the evening."

"No problem! Zhuzi, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what I would do."

"Uncle Fu, you are too polite. This is what I should do."

After saying this, He Yuzhu picked up the wooden box containing the gold, turned around and walked out of the Lou Mansion.

He Yuzhu had just left Lou's house and saw that there was no one around, so he threw the wooden box into the space.

He could only feel at ease with valuable items like gold if he put them into space.

After leaving Lou's house, He Yuzhu went straight to Ma Hua's house, told Ma Hua what had happened, and asked him to inform the other three apprentices. Then he rode his bicycle and went home leisurely.

The deaf old lady saw He Yuzhu and asked with a slightly dissatisfied tone:

"Zhu Zi, where are you going today? Why can't I see you so early in the morning?"

He Yuzhu said indifferently: "I went to Lou Xiao'e's house!"

The deaf old lady couldn't wait to ask, "Zhu Zi, are you going to the Lou family to propose marriage? Have you set a date?"

He Yuzhu said with a sullen face: "I'm not going to propose marriage, but to find Lou Xiao'e."

"Have you gone to look for Lou Xiao'e?" The deaf old lady looked puzzled.

He Yuzhu said dejectedly, "When Lou Xiao'e left, she said she would stay at her parents' home for a day or two and then come back. But it's already the fourth day and she hasn't come back yet, so I naturally have to ask her."

"But when I arrived at the Lou family's house, it was already deserted."

The deaf old lady was shocked and said, "The house is deserted? What do you mean? Are you saying that the entire Lou family has run away?"

He Yuzhu nodded and said, "Yes, after asking around, I found out that Xiao'e and her family fled to Hong Kong the night before yesterday."

Upon hearing this, the deaf old lady flew into a rage and said:

"Lou Xiao'e is such an ungrateful person. She lived in my mother's house for so long, and she didn't even say hello to me when she ran away. What a piece of shit."

"Zhu Zi, don't be angry or sad. The old lady will definitely find you a partner who is ten times better than Lou Xiao'e."

He Yuzhu sighed and said, "I'm not angry. Xiao'e did everything for me. You didn't want her identity to affect my future, so you reluctantly left me."

The deaf old lady was very cunning and immediately understood what He Yuzhu meant, but she was still dissatisfied:

"Even so, he shouldn't just leave without saying goodbye, right?"

He Yuzhu said with a sad face: "Xiao E, there is nothing we can do about it. His father sensed danger and had to flee overnight."

The deaf old lady comforted him, "Zhu Zi, don't be sad. It's just that you and Lou Xiao'e are not destined to be together. Now that things have come to this, you have no choice but to look at things in a positive light. After all, life still has to go on."

"Also, the most important thing for you right now is to find someone to marry, otherwise you will lose custody of your twin sons."

"Zhu Zi, I will go find Matchmaker Zhang to introduce you to someone tomorrow. With your current status and power, there are plenty of good girls willing to marry you."

He Yuzhu shook his head and said, "No, I already have a new goal to pursue."

The deaf old lady immediately asked, "Are you pursuing a new target? Who is it?"

He Yuzhu casually said, "Her name is Ding Qiunan, a doctor in the infirmary of our steel mill. She is as pretty as a peach in spring and as pure as a chrysanthemum in autumn. She is the most beautiful woman in our steel mill."

The deaf old lady blurted out: "Is she a widow too?"

He Yuzhu said dissatisfiedly: "What widow? She is not married yet, she is still a virgin."

The deaf old lady laughed awkwardly and said, "Zhu Zi, I'm sorry, your first two wives were both second marriages. I thought you were only interested in widows."

He Yuzhu said with an unhappy face: "Who told you that I like widows? I don't like virgins, but I like widows. Am I crazy?"

Seeing He Yuzhu was angry, the deaf old lady quickly changed the subject and said:

"Zhu Zi, you've been divorced twice, and the other party is still a virgin, and the most beautiful girl in your steel mill. Can you win her over?"

He Yuzhu said confidently: "I am powerful and talented. She has had a good impression of me for a long time. As long as I use a little trick, I can win her over."

The only thing that worried He Yuzhu was Ding Qiunan's family background. Ding Qiunan's father studied medicine abroad in the West and worked as a chief physician in a hospital after returning to China.

Ding Qiunan's mother is a university lecturer and her family belongs to the intellectual class.

However, due to Ding's father's experience studying in the United States, Ding's father and mother were persuaded to resign from their original unit and stayed at home for a long time, which led to financial difficulties for the family.

Ding Qiunan was affected by this. Although he had excellent grades, he was unable to go to university normally. Ding's father used all kinds of connections and begged everyone for help before he arranged for Ding Qiunan to work in a machine repair factory as a doctor in the infirmary.

There is nothing wrong with the Ding family's background. After all, in the original drama, after Cui Dake married Ding Qiunan, his career was not affected at all and he continued to rise step by step.

If Cui Dake hadn't messed up a few things, he wouldn't have ended up in jail.

The deaf old lady heard this and said with a smile: "Zhu Zi, I feel relieved when you say that."

"But, is she willing to take care of your child?"

He Yuzhu said with a sly smile, "Don't tell her yet. After I get the certificate from her, she won't be able to leave it behind even if she wants to."

The deaf old lady said in surprise: "Zhu Zi, you have changed. You have become treacherous."

He Yuzhu narrowed his eyes slightly and said softly:

“A kind man is easily bullied, a kind horse is easily ridden. If I don’t become treacherous, I will always be the one who gets hurt.”

The deaf old lady looked at He Yuzhu with complicated eyes and said nothing more.

After dinner, He Yuzhu saw that it was almost time, so he went out to Lou's house.

When he arrived at Lou's house, all four apprentices were there.

Ma Hua couldn't help but ask, "Master, whose house is this? It looks so magnificent."

He Yuzhu said in a deep voice: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. Knowing too much will do you no good."

Seeing this, Ma Hua hurriedly said, "Master, I understand."

He Yuzhu nodded with satisfaction: "It's getting late, let's get to work!"
