Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

After discussing Liu Guangqi for a while, the group thought of Yan Jiedi.

Yan Jiecheng picked up the phone and called Yan Jiedi directly.

"Jie Di, come to my restaurant. We siblings need to talk about something."

Then, less than ten seconds later, Yan Jiecheng hung up the phone.

"Is Jie Di coming over?"

"I'll be there in a bit," Yan Jiecheng said.

Liu Guangfu said in surprise, "You guys made the call way too fast."

"Since we're going to meet anyway, it's better to talk about it when we meet. Okay, let's go sit down for a while."

Yan Jiecheng gave an explanation, then beckoned a few people to sit down in the private room.

"You haven't told us yet, who told you this?"

"We figured it out."

The Liu brothers had just met with He Yuzhu, which could be considered as establishing a connection.

They were afraid of offending He Yuzhu, so they dared not betray him.

When Yan Jiefang and his brother asked, they didn't answer. Now that Yan Jiecheng is asking, they don't intend to answer either.

Once this matter is over, the two plan to cultivate a good relationship with He Yuzhu and make money by following him.

Xu Damao is now their role model.

Xu Damao was able to make a fortune by following He Yuzhu, so they thought they could too.

After waiting for more than an hour, Liu Guangqi and Yan Jiedi finally arrived at the restaurant.

As soon as Liu Guangqi came in, he put on the airs of an older brother.

"What's going on between you two? Don't you know I'm very busy?"

Liu Guangtian said with dissatisfaction, "You're the only one who's busy. Everyone else isn't busy."

If you don't want to come, then don't come.

"What did you say?" Liu Guangqi looked at Liu Guangtian angrily.

Liu Guangtian wasn't afraid of him and met his gaze.

Liu Guangtian also had Liu Guangfu as an assistant.

The two brothers shared a similar plight from childhood and supported each other as they grew up.

They may have disagreements in ordinary times, but when facing outsiders, they are absolutely united.

Yan Jiecheng quickly stepped forward and blocked both sides: "Let's both say less."

We have important things to do.

At the urging of the Yan brothers, the group entered the private room.

Once we got to the private room, I told everyone what had happened.

After the matter was explained, Yan Jiecheng and the others looked at Liu Guangqi, wanting to know his attitude.

Upon hearing this, Liu Guangqi began to ponder it seriously.

He was able to get into a vocational school because he was much smarter than these people.

Liu Guangqi's misbehavior stemmed from his childhood, including instances where the Liu brothers, Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangtian, were beaten.

Every time Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangqi were beaten, Liu Guangqi would hide to the side.

It was precisely because he hid in the side that he saw more secrets.

Many of the times Liu Guangtian and his brother were beaten, it was the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai who exaggerated the situation.

Seeing that Liu Guangqi remained silent, Yan Jiecheng asked curiously, "Brother Guangqi, what do you think?"

Liu Guangqi let out a breath: "If I'm not mistaken, this must be the idea that the deaf old lady gave to the old man?"

One sentence left everyone in the room dumbfounded.

They assumed this was something Yi Zhonghai had just done recently.

Liu Guangqi, however, said that this matter was also related to the deaf old lady.

"What does this have to do with the deaf old lady?"

Liu Guangqi paused for a moment.

Yan Jiefang urged, "Brother Guangqi, stop hiding it."

what happened?

If you keep hiding it like this, all the money Second Uncle makes from dealing in steel bars will go to the Jia family.

Upon hearing this, a hint of annoyance flashed in Liu Guangqi's eyes.

In the past, he might not have cared about Liu Haizhong's family fortune, but not now.

Even though he hasn't returned, he still holds the highest place in the hearts of Liu Haizhong and his wife.

The Liu brothers, Guangtian and Guangtian, may not know how much money Liu Haizhong has made, but he knows very well.

He only needs to say a few nice words at home, and his second aunt will tell him about the family's wealth.

He wouldn't give away so much money for nothing. "You all know, my dad likes to play mahjong all day long."

I didn't dare plead with them; every time they were beaten, I would hide away.

Upon hearing this, a hint of resentment flashed in the eyes of the Liu brothers.

They could see how much Liu Guangqi was pampered at home.

They always believed that as long as Liu Guangqi pleaded for them, Liu Haizhong would not beat them so badly.

Liu Guangqi ignored their thoughts and continued, "I often sit down at the door of the deaf old lady."

Several times, I overheard her talking to an old man about retirement.

At the time, I thought they were going to rely on Jia Dongxu and Brother Zhu to take care of them in their old age.

Yan Jiedi was the youngest and didn't know much about these things.

She asked, "Didn't the old man ask the Jia family to take care of him in his old age?"

How did this get involved with Brother Zhu again?

Liu Guangqi turned to look at her, and was very surprised.

He was right; the clothes Yan Jiedi was wearing were not cheap.

Those who can afford these kinds of clothes are basically wealthy business owners.

Yan Jiedi is just an ordinary worker; she probably doesn't have that ability.

However, Liu Guangqi didn't say anything.

He is by nature a cold and aloof person who doesn't meddle in other people's business.

What you see is only part of the story.

You don't know, but at the very beginning, the old man had his eye on Jia Dongxu, and the deaf old lady had her eye on He Yuzhu.

The two argued about this many times.

"Really?" Yan Jiefang asked curiously. "So you say that?"

The deaf old lady helped the old man against Brother Zhu, not so that Brother Zhu would help the Jia family.

Since Liu Guangqi had already spoken, he had no intention of hiding anything.

"Of course. It's not that the deaf old lady looks down on Jia Dongxu, it's that she looks down on Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu."

You probably know about the old man and his several families having New Year's Eve dinner together.

Every time she came back from a meal, the deaf old lady would be full of anger and would mutter and curse in the house.

She shouted from inside the house several times, "The old man will regret this."

After hearing these explanations, everyone had no doubts about Liu Guangqi's words.

"Brother Guangqi, please tell us in detail."

Liu Guangqi thought for a moment: "I don't know everything I know, and some of it is just my guess."

You all know what kind of person this old man is.

He is an extremely controlling and suspicious person.

He was worried about the Jia family supporting him in his old age, so he started thinking about winning over others.

When he becomes unable to move, they can take care of each other.

Of all the people in our compound, only my dad and my third uncle fit this description.

To achieve this goal, they instigated my father to beat up Guangtian and his companion.

They tell others that unkind parents lead to unfilial children, and that's why.

Yan Jiekuang asked, "That's not right. If they're trying to sow discord between your family, then they should be trying to sow discord between our family as well."

How come I never noticed that he had tried to sow discord in our family?

Brothers, did you guys notice?

Yan Jie shook his head several times.

Yan Bugui is a clever man in the courtyard; it would be extremely difficult to sow discord among him.

Yan Bugui is more likely to be stirring up trouble for others.

Liu Guangqi said, "Does Third Uncle need to stir things up? As long as he donates some money to the Jia family, he will scheme against you even more when he gets home."

"Aren't you all staying away from home because you're afraid he'll scheme against you?"

These words silenced Yan Jiecheng and his brothers.

They thought back to the old days, days that were truly unbearable to recall.

In this lifetime, I've lost that foolish Zhu.

Yan Bugui not only missed out on many opportunities to profit, but also lost a lot of money as a result.

Every time Yan Bugui suffered a loss outside, he would make Yan Jie bleed several times over when he returned home.

Yan Jiecheng and several others suffered terribly from Yan Bugui's torment.

They've suffered far more in their lives than they did when Sha Zhu was alive. (End of Chapter)
