Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

Qin Huairu did not tell Banggeng and Yi Zhonghai about how she helped Xiaodang to seize the Guo family's house. She planned to give them a surprise after the plan was completed.

But things went against his wishes. He didn't expect that Guo Piezi would actually drag his own daughter to the Guo's house to deal with his plan.

On the way home, Qin Huairu racked his brains but couldn't think of a solution.

But she didn't want to give up the Guo family's house, so she had to ask Yi Zhonghai for help.

The older you get, the wiser you get. In Qin Huairu's opinion, Yi Zhonghai's ability in calculating people far exceeds his own.

As long as he is willing to take action, there will be no problem dealing with Guo Piezi.

…………

The central courtyard of the quadrangle is Yi Zhonghai's home.

After listening to Qin Huairu's story, Yi Zhonghai's brows were furrowed into a big "川" shape.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he spoke to Qin Huairu in a critical tone: "Huairu, Huairu...what do you want me to say about you?"

"Can't we just live a good life? Why do we have to calculate this and that?"

"Guo Piezi is notoriously difficult and helpless in the first workshop of the steel mill. Our moral blackmail has no effect on him at all."

"If you plot against him, it's like hitting a rock with an egg, and you're just courting death, aren't you?"

"Guo Piezi temporarily transferred his daughter's family's household registration to his own name, clearly to prevent Xiaodang from causing trouble at the steel mill and to get the mill leaders to give most of his salary to Xiaodang."

"There are five people in Guo Piezi's family now. If the incident really reaches the steel mill, the mill leaders will only divide Guo Piezi's salary equally for fairness. Xiao Dang will only get ten yuan at most."

"Now Xiaodang lives under the same roof with Guo Xiu's family. Her husband Guo Piezi doesn't like her anymore. She also has less living expenses. Her life will definitely become more and more difficult in the future."

"Maybe one day Xiaodang will take the initiative to ask for a divorce from Guo Piezi because she can't stand the life in the Guo family anymore, and even agree to let Guo Piezi leave the house with nothing."

"By then, Xiaodang will not only fail to take over the Guo family's house, but he may even have no place to live and will have to move back to the Jia family."

"No matter how you look at it, Guo Piezi is right in this matter. I can't think of any other way to help Xiao Dang."

It was not until then that Qin Huairu realized that he had lost more than he gained.

He planned to take over the Guo family’s house, and even if he failed, he could just leave. After all, he didn’t live in the Guo family.

Xiaodang is not suitable because she is Guo Piezi’s wife.

As long as they haven't divorced, he will continue to live in the Guo family. Even if he wants Xiaodang to move back to the Jia family, there is no place for him to live in the Jia family.

At that time, Guo Piezi will definitely vent all his anger on Xiaodang, and try every means to suppress Xiaodang at home, plot against Xiaodang, and force Xiaodang to divorce him...

What Qin Huairu felt most distressed about was the living expenses that Xiaodang could get from Guo Piezi every month.

Before I helped Xiaodang with strategies, Xiaodang could get 20 yuan a month for living expenses, and under normal circumstances he could save 10 yuan.

As her biological mother, I can more or less calculate some money and put it in my own pocket.

If Guo Piezi took the opportunity to reduce Xiaodang's monthly living expenses to ten yuan, Xiaodang would not be able to save any money, and he would not be able to get a penny from Xiaodang, let alone ask Xiaodang to lend money to Banggeng to buy a house.

His face instantly darkened, and he was filled with anxiety. He looked at Yi Zhonghai anxiously and asked, "Old Yi..."

"I really can't help Xiao Dang..."

Yi Zhonghai is no longer the same person he was a few years ago. Ever since he secretly sold the house to Wang Dong, he has had only one idea in his mind, which is to use the remaining pension money in his hands to live a good life and stop calculating and losing the pension money he had managed to save.

So no matter what, Yi Zhonghai would never get involved in Qin Huairu's conspiracies and schemes.

Facing Qin Huairu's expectant and anxious gaze, he simply shook his head and refused: "Huairu..."

"It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I can't help you with this matter at all." "Guo Piezi is too smart. He directly cut off all the ways that Xiaodang could threaten him."

"Guo Piezi is notoriously shameless in the steel mill, and he doesn't value the baby in Xiaodang's belly. What can you use to threaten him?"

"I estimate that this Guo Piezi will most likely join forces with Guo Xiu's family to target Xiao Dang in the coming days. As a mother, you'd better warn Xiao Dang in advance. After all, it was you who brought this unprovoked disaster upon her."

"It would be better if we could support her financially."

"Otherwise, Xiao Dang will definitely be dissatisfied with you."

"Maybe the relationship between you and your daughter will really be severed."

"Where can I get the money to support Xiaodang..." When it comes to money, Qin Huairu shakes his head like a rattle, even though the other party is his own daughter.

Then he turned his gaze to Yi Zhonghai and asked expectantly, "Old Yi..."

"Or you can help Xiaodang..."

"How come you are Xiaodang's stepfather too?"

Yi Zhonghai refused without any hesitation: "I don't have money..."

"The little money I have saved for my retirement is not enough for me to spend, so how can I help Xiaodang?"

"Besides, Xiaodang's current situation is caused by you, not me. Why should I use money to help Xiaodang?"

"Besides, I've never seen Xiaodang call me stepfather..."

"No matter how much money I give her now, when I get old, she won't give a penny to honor an old man like me."

Yi Zhonghai's repeated refusal made Qin Huairu realize that there was no way to reverse her plan to take over the Guo family's house.

Not only that.

In order to prevent the mother-daughter relationship between herself and Xiaodang from completely breaking down, she had to take out some money to subsidize Xiaodang, to prevent her from taking the initiative to file for divorce because she could not survive in the Guo family and eventually being left with nothing.

He really lost his wife and lost his troops.

If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have had such messy thoughts in the first place.

But now that things have come to this, it's no use even if she regrets it in her heart.

…………

Just when Xiaodang's days at the Guo family were becoming increasingly difficult, Wang Dong was preparing to open his second restaurant with great anticipation.

eight pm.

A staff meeting was held at Dongjun Hotel, located in front of the steel rolling mill.

Everyone, including apprentices, must attend.

After several months of development, even the lowest-level apprentice or vegetable cutter in the restaurant can receive 70 to 80 yuan in salary every month.

It is higher than the salary of middle-level technical workers in many state-owned factories.

This caused the more than 200 employees in the hotel to work desperately as if they had been injected with chicken blood, for fear that the hotel would go bankrupt because of their lack of hard work, or that business would deteriorate, resulting in a reduction in their wages and the loss of their jobs.

"Pa pa pa..." As soon as Wang Dong appeared in front of them, warm applause broke out in the hotel lobby.

All the employees had genuine smiles on their faces and applauded Wang Dong from the bottom of their hearts.

If it weren't for Wang Dong, they might still be looking for jobs outside, and it would be impossible for them to live the good life that everyone envies now. (End of this chapter)
