Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

Yan Bugui said angrily: "You asked me to understand you, why don't you understand me?"

"Yan Jiefang is my son, whom I raised with great difficulty, yet you want to take him away from me. Do you think that's possible?"

Lin Zongwei said with a guilty look on his face, "I know this is a little unfair to you, but I'm willing to compensate you. What's wrong with three hundred yuan?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Bugui was overjoyed, but his face was filled with anger as he said:

"Asshole, are you asking me to sell my son?"

"Lin Zongwei, I'm telling you, you'd better give up on this idea as soon as possible. I will never agree to it."

Lin Zongwei chuckled and said, "Brother, you've misunderstood. How can this be considered selling your son? Yan Jiefang has your blood flowing through his veins. He is always your son, and that's a fact that no one can change."

"I heard from Jiefang that your family is in a tight financial situation right now, and you have two children still in school. These three hundred yuan should be enough to help you out."

Yan Bugui said angrily, "Lin Zongwei, you don't have to say anything. I, Yan Bugui, would never sell my son even if I were to die of poverty and starvation."

Lin Zongwei continued to persuade him, "Brother, even if you don't accept the money, Yan Jiefang won't go back with you. After all, he has already married into my family."

"Why don't you take the three hundred yuan and focus on training your other two children? You have more than one son, Yan Jiefang, anyway."

Yan Bugui said coldly: "How can you be sure that Yan Jiefang will not go home with me? Don't forget, I am his biological father. How dare he disobey me?"

Lin Zongwei said confidently, "Although you are Yan Jiefang's biological father, I am absolutely sure that he will stay in Linjiawan."

"Brother, please consider my proposal carefully. I will come to see you tomorrow."

After Lin Zongwei finished speaking, he turned and left the ward.

After Lin Zongwei left, Yan Bugui showed a bright smile on his face. He pretended to be so angry just now for two purposes.

First, establish an image of a loving father for yourself. After all, it would not sound good to ask for compensation from your son's father-in-law.

Second, it was to get more money. If he asked for money right away, he would not only be looked down upon by the other party, but would also get very little money. However, since he pretended to be angry, the other party not only offered to compensate him, but the compensation was also quite a lot.

He believed that if he acted angrier, he could get more money.

Lin Zongwei left the ward and found Yan Jiefang outside the clinic.

Yan Jiefang hurried over and asked, "Father-in-law, how did your talk with my dad go?"

Lin Zongwei said in a deep voice: "We haven't reached an agreement yet, but I believe your father will definitely compromise."

"But the key lies with you. As long as you stand firmly by my side, your father will be unable to do anything to us."

"Yan Jiefang, I'm warning you, you've married my daughter now. If you dare to have any other ideas, I will definitely make you live a life worse than death."

Yan Jiefang was frightened by Lin Zongwei's cold eyes and shuddered, and said hurriedly:

"Father-in-law, don't worry. Since I'm marrying into your family, I will definitely stand firmly on your and Haiyan's side."

Lin Zongwei looked at Yan Jiefang with burning eyes and said in a cold voice:

"I hope you will do what you say, otherwise I have plenty of ways to deal with you."

Yan Jiefang said firmly: "Father-in-law, you can rest assured that I will keep my promise."

"My dad is always a destabilizing factor here. I will find a way to send him away as soon as possible."

Lin Zongwei said calmly, "I will handle your father's affairs. You don't need to interfere. You just need to insist that it is Haiyan you are willing to marry."

"understand!"

Yan Jiefang didn't know how Lin Zongwei could deal with his father, but he still nodded firmly.

Lin Zongwei nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, and then said:

"You stay at the clinic today and take care of your father. I'll take your place tomorrow."

Yan Jiefang said, "Father-in-law, I hope Haiyan can come and apologize to my father. As a daughter-in-law, she rushed her own father-in-law into the hospital. This is unacceptable."

Lin Zongwei lowered his eyes slightly and said immediately, "Haiyan's behavior of a younger generation hitting an elder is indeed outrageous. I will teach her a lesson when I return. Apologizing to your father is the most basic thing. I will also make Haiyan kowtow to your father and admit her mistake."

After Lin Zongwei finished speaking, he turned and left.

When Yan Jiefang saw Lin Zongwei leave, he turned and went into Yan Bugui's ward.

Yan Bugui saw Yan Jiefang and said coldly, "Is that old guy gone?"

Yan Jiefang frowned and said, "Dad, he is my father-in-law, can you please be a little respectful to him?"

"He has indeed left. He will come to see you tomorrow!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Bugui's face instantly darkened and he said in a deep voice:

"Yan Jiefang, there are only two of us in the ward now. Tell me honestly, what leverage do you have over that old man?"

Yan Jiefang smiled bitterly and said, "Dad, don't let your imagination run wild. My father-in-law has no leverage over me. I really want to marry Lin Haiyan."

Yan Bugui cursed angrily, "Yan Jiefang, are you kidding me? Lin Haiyan's face is so disgusting that anyone would be turned off. How could you willingly marry her?"

Yan Jiefang said with an ugly face: "Dad, don't ask me anymore. Just think that I am harsh in tone and I like Lin Haiyan's type!"

Yan Bugui was furious and said, "You bastard, what kind of bullshit are you talking about? I will never recognize an ugly daughter-in-law like Lin Haiyan."

"Aren't you well fed? As long as you agree to divorce Lin Haiyan, I will send you three yuan every month."

Upon hearing this, Yan Jiefang felt touched. He knew how stingy his father was. Three yuan every month was like cutting flesh from him, but for me, he was still willing to cut this flesh and shed blood. Unfortunately, it was too late.

"Dad, please stop talking. Haiyan and I are truly in love, and I will never divorce her."

Yan Bugui was furious and said, "Yan Jiefang, do you know that if you don't divorce her, it will be difficult for you to return to the capital, and your future will be ruined?"

"Now Lin Haiyan has made me important. As long as you are willing to cooperate with me, I can force Lin Zongwei to agree to your divorce."

Yan Jiefang's eyes were slightly red, and he said in a choked voice, "Dad, don't say anymore. It's too late."

Yan Bugui said anxiously, "It's not too late, not at all. Tell us what difficulties you have and we can solve them together."

Yan Jiefang tearfully said, "Dad, I am an unfilial son. You don't have to worry about me anymore. I will return to Beijing as soon as I recover. From now on, just treat me as if I were no longer your son!"

"You are my son, who I raised with all my heart and soul. How can I ignore you?"

Yan Bugui's face was full of anxiety, but no matter how he persuaded Yan Jiefang, he refused to give in and finally ran out of the ward crying.

Looking at Yan Jiefang's desolate back as he left, Yan Bugui sighed deeply:

"Jiefang, don't blame me. This is the path you chose, and you should bear all the consequences yourself."
