Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

On the Jia family's side, two widows sat at home with worried expressions, accompanied by Tang Yanling and Xiao Huaihua.

Jia Zhangshi asked anxiously, "Why hasn't Bang Geng sent any news yet?"

Tang Yanling said nonchalantly, "What's your rush? Bang Geng hasn't even gotten off the train yet."

Xiao Huaihua looked at Tang Yanling with admiration.

In the entire Jia family, only Tang Yanling dared to speak to Jia Zhangshi like that.

Anyway, she wouldn't dare to speak to Jia Zhangshi like that.

Jia Zhangshi glanced at her granddaughter-in-law, then turned and started scolding Liu Guangtian and his companion.

"Those two heartless bastards from the Liu family don't even know how to help our family."

Qin Huairu and Xiao Huaihua were used to such things and didn't find anything wrong with them.

Tang Yanling, however, disliked this environment.

After she married Banggeng, Jia Zhangshi restrained her temper and never resorted to tantrums again.

"Grandma, can you please be quiet? Are you trying to wake Wutong up?"

Madam Jia immediately fell silent.

At this moment, Qin Huairu finally spoke up: "Mom, stop making a fuss. If the Liu brothers don't want to involve our family, then our family will do it ourselves."

With his skills, Bang Geng can definitely earn more money than them.

Jia Zhangshi stood up: "Yes, when Bang Geng becomes successful in the future, let them have a good look at him."

After saying that, Jia Zhangshi went back to her room.

Qin Huairu glanced at it and followed him out to find Yi Zhonghai.

Little Locust Flower said with admiration, "Sister-in-law, you're really something."

Besides my brother, only you can stop Grandma in our family.

Tang Yanling didn't have a good impression of this younger sister.

Both younger sisters are smart, but also extremely selfish. They never bring any money home after they earn it.

This time, Liu Guangtian and his companion didn't bring Banggeng with them. Qin Huairu was worried about Banggeng being alone, so she went to find Xiao Huaihua and her husband.

It was at this moment that they learned that Xiao Dang and Xiao Huaihua were also secretly buying treasury bonds.

If we don't go to them, those two will definitely do it behind our backs.

Despite her dislike for the two, Tang Yanling didn't target them, mainly because there was nothing to fight over with the Jia family.

Given the extent of Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu's favoritism, the Jia family's fortune will ultimately belong to Banggong, and will have little to do with these two people.

"Stop flattering me. You and Xiao Dang are really something, secretly buying and selling treasury bonds behind your family's back."

How did you know?

Xiao Huaihua said, "We didn't hide it from our families, we just didn't have time to come back."

It's all over the place now; many people are buying treasury bonds privately.

We just bought a little because it was trending.

"Sister-in-law, you've been working for Uncle Xu for quite a while now, you must have made a lot of money."

Tang Yanling sighed: "Don't you know Xu Damao well?"

That guy's a bastard, he takes all the benefits but never lets us make big money.

Xiao Huaihua said, "Xu Damao is that kind of person. He has the worst character in our courtyard."

Tang Yanling looked at Xiao Huaihua strangely: "Your family has the worst relationship with He Yuzhu, right?"

Shouldn't you hate He Yuzhu the most?

Xiao Huaihua sighed, "Our family has the worst relationship with Uncle He's family."

But those were all the neighbors across the street, and Uncle He, whom Mom and Grandma had provoked.

Uncle He may not have taken care of us, but he certainly didn't mistreat us.

If possible, I really want to apologize to Uncle He.

Tang Yanling rolled her eyes; "Don't even think about it. I haven't really met Uncle He yet."

I just don't understand, what despicable thing did they do to offend Uncle He like that?

Little Locust Flower couldn't answer that question.

No one in the entire courtyard knew the real reason.

They knew that Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu wanted to scheme against He Yuzhu, but the two had never succeeded.

On the contrary, both of them had to pay a price for each failure. In most people's eyes, He Yuzhu hadn't suffered any loss, yet he was still so petty and calculating, which seemed too narrow-minded.

Yi Zhonghai, having just seen Yan Bugui off, sat at home fuming.

When Qin Huairu came over, the usual intimacy was gone.

No matter how he tried to justify himself to others, he still harbored deep distrust towards Qin Huairu.

This distrust compels him to scheme against others.

Qin Huairu was unaware of all this and said with a smile, "Zhonghai, you're back from drinking at Old Liu's house."

Have Guangtian and Guangfu sent any news?

Despite feeling uncomfortable, Yi Zhonghai couldn't afford to fall out with Qin Huairu.

He had no other choice but to stick to Qin Huairu and go down this path to the bitter end.

"No news yet, they must have just arrived in Shanghai. Huairu, one must not forget one's roots."

I discussed the idea of ​​retiring together with Lao Liu and Lao Yan, but they both refused to budge.

I believe you know the reason.

Qin Huai cursed the old guys in his heart for being ungrateful. With their character, they should be grateful if someone would take care of them in their old age, yet they still dared to be picky.

"I don't know why. As a woman, taking care of so many people, is it easy for me?"

Do they know the hardships I've endured over the years?
If it weren't for your sake, I wouldn't have agreed to take care of them.

Do you know that rich people outside pay several hundred dollars a month to hire a nanny?

I don't want a single penny; I'll give it to them to support them in their old age. Why?
Isn't it because they helped us when our family was going through a tough time?

I agreed to take care of them in their old age, as you requested, which means I'll act as their caregiver.

"I've already gone this far, what more do they want?"

Yi Zhonghai: "..." Qin Huairu has already said everything, what else can he say?

"Huai Ru, don't cry, that's not what I meant."

Qin Huairu cried and said, "That's not what I meant. What did you mean?"
When they were helping our family, they made excuses and refused.

I can't possibly be their slave for the rest of my life just because of some past favor.

“Huai Ru.” Yi Zhonghai’s tone became stern.

His principle for supporting himself in old age is to repay even the smallest kindness with the greatest gratitude.

A small favor is enough to make someone live off it for a lifetime.

He absolutely would not allow Qin Huairu to have any dangerous thoughts of not repaying kindness.

Qin Huairu was startled, realizing that she had crossed Yi Zhonghai's bottom line.

But she wasn't particularly afraid.

The only thing that worried Qin Huairu was that after falling out with Yi Zhonghai, she wouldn't get his assets.

However, the probability is extremely low.

Yi Zhonghai has no other choice but to rely on his family for his old age. She doesn't believe Yi Zhonghai would dare to turn against them.

Yi Zhonghai stared at Qin Huairu, unsure of what to do.

There is only one path ahead of him: if he falls out with Qin Huairu, he will have to rely on a nursing home for his old age.

He was quite familiar with the situation at the nursing home.

He absolutely cannot end up like the deaf old lady, where no one cares after someone dies.

"Hey, you have to understand Lao Liu and Lao Yan."

Qin Huairu could tell from Yi Zhonghai's expression that Yi Zhonghai had compromised.

"I understand them, and they need to understand me too. Did Lao Yan say something to you again?"

He's only interested in taking advantage of others.

In my opinion, you should give him the cold shoulder and go find Lao Liu.

As long as Lao Liu agrees to retire together, Lao Yan will obediently come over.

Liu Hai is rich and easily fooled.

If Qin Huairu really had to choose one of the three old men in the courtyard to take care of in her old age, she would definitely choose Liu Haizhong.

Yi Zhonghai wanted to find Liu Haizhong, but he didn't have the chance. Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu lived in the Liu family's temporary housing.

He simply couldn't persuade Liu Haizhong to agree to grow old together with him using only words. (End of Chapter)
