Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Liu Guangqi.

These three words suddenly appeared in Yi Zhonghai's ears, immediately sounding the alarm.

The biggest obstacle to persuading Liu Haizhong to retire with him is Liu Guangqi.

Liu Guangqi, Liu Hai's son, holds a very important place in Liu Hai's heart.

Liu Haizhong, that kind of person, never said a harsh word to Liu Guangqi, let alone hit him.

As long as Liu Guangqi is around, his idea of ​​retiring together with Liu Haizhong will not succeed.

Normally, Yi Zhonghai wouldn't care about Liu Guangqi.

Because Liu Guangqi only comes back twice a year at most, and each time he doesn't stay for long.

Such a short period of time will not significantly affect Yi Zhonghai's plans.

Yi Zhonghai believed that as long as he persuaded Liu Haizhong more, Liu Haizhong would definitely listen to him.

But things were different when Liu Guangqi came back.

He didn't think he could compare to the apple of his eye in his hair.

"It's great that Guangqi is back. If you ask me, he should have come back a long time ago."

"Why did Guangqi suddenly come back?"

Liu Haizhong didn't understand Yi Zhonghai's deeper meaning and said with a smile, "Guangtian and Guangfu, we ran into him today."

The two men persuaded Guangqi, and he agreed.

Yi Zhonghai immediately felt a surge of resentment.

These two brothers are truly more trouble than they're worth.

Why meddle in other people's business?

"Is this for real? Or did they do something wrong and are just using this excuse to fool you?"

Liu Haizhong said with dissatisfaction, "What do you mean?"

Yi Zhonghai smiled and explained, "Don't misunderstand, I didn't mean anything by it."

It's your Guangqi, everyone knows him.

His child doesn't understand you. He says he doesn't want the child to see you hitting people, so he doesn't want to come back.

If you ask me, that's just an excuse.

How could he possibly understand your good intentions?

A son will be raised with a stick.

You also hope that Guangtian's two children will be successful, right?

Yan Bugui taught his children through family rules.

Liu Haizhong taught his children by the principle of "spare the rod and spoil the child."

Liu Haizhong believes that if a child is not successful, it's because he hasn't been beaten enough.

If you still don't show any promise, then give me a beating.

When Yi Zhonghai brought this up, he was trying to touch on Liu Haizhong's heart.

Only by touching Liu Haizhong's heart can it be easier to persuade him.

Yan Bugui, standing to the side, wore an expression of disapproval.

He never agreed with Liu Haizhong's methods of educating children.

In his view, hitting is a form of violence.

The correct educational philosophy is to teach people through practical experience.

There's a saying that goes, "People can't teach people, but experience can teach people; once is enough."

Under his guidance, the children in his family became role models of learning from mistakes.

Once he schemes against you, you won't be schemed against again.

If there's a second time, then it's not the child's fault.

If anyone's to blame, it's because he's too good.

If the child were really as capable as him, how could he possibly scheme against the child?

Liu Haizhong wavered for a moment, but quickly made up his mind.

He wouldn't believe it unless the facts were presented to him, and his child wouldn't believe it either.

He has money now, and even with that money, he can still make his children filial.

"Old Yi, let's not talk about the past."

Guangqi was personally trained by me; he would never be unfilial.

Yi Zhonghai was particularly annoyed when he saw the sharp angles in his bangs.

He didn't want to be too blunt, so he tried to pull Yan Bugui aside and say, "Tell me your opinion."

Yan Bugui snapped out of his daze: "Guangqi is coming back tomorrow, what delicious food are you going to prepare?"

Do you want me to keep you company?

Yi Zhonghai was so angry after hearing Yan Bugui's words that his nose almost twisted.

"Old Yan, what are you saying? I asked you to talk to Old Liu about the child."

Why are you bringing up food again?

Yan Bugui smiled awkwardly: "I just wanted to help Lao Liu persuade Guang Qi."
Old Liu wasn't very old before, and he was busy with his career, so it wasn't a big deal if he didn't come back.

"Old Liu is getting old now, he should come back more often." Yi Zhonghai cursed him as a traitor in his heart.

At the same time, Yan Bugui's words also served as a reminder to him.

Given Yan Bugui's character, he might very well help Liu Haizhong persuade Liu Guangqi for a little benefit.

If Yan Bugui were to genuinely help Liu Haizhong, things would get complicated.

He cannot allow Yan Bugui to contact Liu Guangqi.

"What are you trying to persuade me of? Don't forget, you still have to sell fried chicken tomorrow."

Do you have time?

Yan Bugui hesitated for a moment.

His fried chicken business has been doing well lately, and he's making a lot of money every day, so he's a little reluctant to give it up.

Liu Haizhong stood up angrily: "Our family's affairs are none of your business."

I don't need your involvement.

After saying that, he left angrily.

Yi Zhonghai was also furious, pointing at the figure in the bangs.

“Listen to what he’s saying. We’ve been neighbors for decades, closer than family.”

How could he say that about us?

I'm doing this for his own good.

Yan Bugui disagreed with this statement.

If Yi Zhonghai truly cared about them, he should have advised them much earlier.

Remind them not to treat children that way when they are young.

If Yi Zhonghai knew what Yan Bugui was thinking, he would definitely ask Yan Bugui.

Even if he tried to persuade him, would Yan Bugui listen?
The two parted ways at the Intermediate People's Court and went home separately.

Xu Damao returned with a lunchbox in his hand, all smiles.

"Uncle Li, this is a dish that Brother Zhu made himself. I brought you a portion, please try it."

Li Dagen smiled as he accepted the lunchbox: "Da Mao, thank you so much."

I really want to eat the dishes Zhu Zi makes.

He's a big boss now, so he doesn't cook often.

Xu Damao said with a smile, "Even the biggest boss needs to eat."

"If he doesn't work outside, why doesn't he work at home?"

Li Dagen pointed at Xu Damao: "You can laugh at him behind his back."

If he finds out, he won't let you off the hook.

What's Zhu Zi been up to lately?

Xu Damao said, "He wasn't very busy. He handed over all the business matters to others."

However, it seems I'll be going abroad soon.

"Da Mao, Sha Zhu is going abroad again." Yan Bugui stormed out of the central courtyard and came over after hearing the conversation.

When they saw Yan Bugui approaching, Xu Damao and Li Dagen both frowned.

He ruined our conversation again.

"Yan Bugui, could you please stop calling He Yuzhu by his nickname?"

Yan Bugui was somewhat displeased when he heard Xu Damao address him: "Can't you show me some respect?"

It's unacceptable for a junior to call an elder by their first name.

If you don't want to call me Third Uncle, can't you just call me Uncle Yan?

Xu Damao pursed his lips: "If you want me to treat you like an elder, then do what an elder should do."

Yan Bugui said angrily, "What do you mean by 'what elders should do'?"

I watched you grow up, and your dad and I are like brothers.

Am I not your elder?

Xu Damao chuckled: "If that's what you mean, then I'll call my dad over tomorrow, and you can have a chat with him."

Yan Bugui took a step back, feeling guilty.

Xu Fugui is different now.

The son is rich, and the daughter is a leader; they have a lot of face when they go out.

Xu Fugui rarely came to the courtyard house, and every time he did, he left the three old men covered in dust and dirt.

"I'm not going to talk about that. I just want to ask you about Sha Zhu."

Xu Damao said, "Aren't you afraid that if he comes, he'll slap you a few more times?"

Thinking of He Yuzhu's slap, Yan Bugui felt no guilt.

He realized that he was too old for young people to mess with.

Now he even hopes He Yuzhu will beat him, so that he can rely on He Yuzhu for the rest of his life and have He Yuzhu support him.

What he feared most wasn't the younger generation like He Yuzhu, but his peers like Xu Fugui and He Daqing. (End of Chapter)
