Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Besides Liu Haizhong, Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui also sensed the hidden meaning in Xu Damao's words.

The statement that his retirement money had been embezzled was particularly blatant.

They practically pointed their fingers at him and said their money had been stolen.

But Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui's money was in their own hands, so they didn't have to worry about it being embezzled.

The two of them then thought of Liu Haizhong.

All the money in Liu Haizhong's pocket was in the hands of Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu.

The Liu brothers, Guangtian and Guangtian, have been staying in Shanghai and are unwilling to return.

Looking at it now, it's highly likely that he ran away with the money hidden in Liu Hai's hair.

In that instant, both of them felt a pang of heartache.

Yan Bugui was simply heartbroken over the money Liu Haizhong had lost.

The fact that the money was stolen means he can no longer take advantage of the situation, which he finds regrettable.

Yi Zhonghai's thoughts were much more complicated.

His retirement plan is not yet complete. The biggest problem with retirement is not the issue of supporting the elderly, but the lack of retirement funds.

The money in Liu Haizhong's hand was the money he had prepared for his retirement.

Those lost funds represent his retirement savings.

How could Yi Zhonghai tolerate this?

If he loses the money, his retirement will be in serious trouble.

Whether Xu Damao's words were true or false, Yi Zhonghai didn't even consider it.

He is the kind of person who likes to be in control of everything and does not tolerate any disobedience.

For the Liu brothers, taking Liu Haizhong's savings was an extremely risky business.

Even without Xu Damao's reminder, he would have made Liu Haizhong take the money back.

Yi Zhonghai glanced at Yan Bugui, signaling him to help coordinate.

"Old Liu, I feel like something's not right?"

Liu Haizhong was still staring at the chessboard, pondering how to beat Yi Zhonghai.

He looked up, confused, and asked, "What's wrong? I haven't logged off yet."

Yan Bugui quickly followed up: "It's not that playing chess is wrong, it's that what Xu Damao just said is wrong."

Liu Haizhong thought for a moment, but couldn't place it in his own situation: "What's wrong?"

Yi Zhonghai explained, "Didn't you hear Xu Damao say that some people's retirement money has been embezzled?"

"I heard that, but what does that have to do with me? Could it be that Qin Huairu ran off with your retirement money?" Liu Haizhong suddenly joked.

Yi Zhonghai immediately became somewhat angry.

He's good at it, but not at it.

Especially when he is about to retire, Qin Huairu's reputation cannot be damaged in the slightest.

The better Qin Huairu's reputation, the more worried she is about ruining it.

Only in order to maintain their reputation can they truly care for him in his old age.

"Old Liu, how could you say that about Huairu?" Yi Zhonghai's voice was loud because he was angry.

Liu Haizhong was equally dissatisfied upon hearing Yi Zhonghai's reprimand.

What's wrong with me saying something?

He didn't understand why Yi Zhonghai was angry, so he just casually replied.

"You just can't say it." Seeing that Liu Haizhong was stubborn and unrepentant, Yi Zhonghai lost his temper.

"I told you, what can you do to me?"

……

Hearing the arguing outside, Xu Damao thought his hint had worked.

"Uncle Li, listen to this. Ever since Qin Huairu married into the courtyard house, Yi Zhonghai has been fiercely protective of her."

No one can say a bad word about Qin Huairu. If anyone dares to say anything, Yi Zhonghai will confront them.

This old guy must have had ill intentions towards Qin Huairu for a long time.

I even suspect that Jia Dongxu died young because he married Qin Huairu.

Brother Li was a bit annoyed by Xu Damao's careless talk: "Damao, you're not young anymore. There are some things you shouldn't say carelessly."

Everyone knew how Lao Yi treated Jia Dongxu. When Jia Dongxu died, he was even more heartbroken than Jia Zhangshi.

Xu Damao smiled and said, "I understand the reasoning you're giving, and I certainly wouldn't say such things to others. But to Yi Zhonghai, this isn't just saying things carelessly."

There's a notebook in the rain, filled with records of the days Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu went on dates.

At that time, Jia Dongxu was still alive.

By now, He Yushui's notebook is no longer a secret.

They mentioned it during their conversation, and Xu Damao overheard it.

Although it wasn't spread outside, several close families knew about it.

Li Dagen shook his head helplessly.

It wasn't just about the laptop; it was also about the reasons behind Jia Dongxu's blind date with Qin Huairu.

Qin Jingru is now working for Xu Damao. Many people from Qin Family Village are also working under Xu Damao.

The secret that Yi Zhonghai had known Qin Huairu since he helped out in Qin Family Village could no longer be kept.

Even the news that Qin Huairu wanted to marry Yi Zhonghai was revealed.

There's just no way to verify whether it's true or false.

Li Dagen simply couldn't understand Yi Zhonghai's behavior.

Qin Huairu, who was eighteen years old, took a liking to him. Not only was he unwilling to marry her, but he even turned around and introduced her to his apprentice.

After his apprentice got married, he started having an affair with Qin Huairu.

If everyone didn't know that Yi Zhonghai was infertile back then, they would definitely suspect that the Jia family's children were Yi Zhonghai's offspring.

Li Dagen can't control Yi Zhonghai, but he can control Xu Damao.

"Then don't talk nonsense. If you really anger Yi Zhonghai to death, aren't you afraid of trouble?"

Xu Damao smiled awkwardly: "Fine, I'll listen to you, I won't say anything more."

Li Dagen said, "That's right. You're a big boss now. You can't speak and act as casually as before."

You should learn a thing or two from Zhu Zi…

As Li Dagen's words became increasingly absurd, Zhou Sujuan interrupted him, saying, "Alright. What do you know, you old man? Don't talk nonsense in front of Da Mao."

Xu Damao smiled and said, "Aunt Li, please don't say that. What Uncle Li said makes sense."

Zhou Sujuan said, "Da Mao is the most reasonable one. If it were Zhenjiang, he would have started arguing with us long ago."

Li Dagen felt a little embarrassed: "You're even more long-winded than me."

"You old man, you're not going to let people talk about you, are you?"

Xu Damao quickly tried to mediate: "Uncle Li, Aunt Li, please stop arguing. I think it's quite boring for you two to live here."

Why don't you just move to the new house?

Didn't Zhenjiang and Yuli move there?

"Now that you live close by, it will be easier for them to take care of you."

Li Dagen and his wife immediately fell silent.

The couple were somewhat reluctant to live with their son.

Xu Damao said, "My dad and Uncle He have both moved there. Oh, and Brother Zhu's master has moved there too."

You didn't see it, but Brother Zhu's master scolds Uncle He every day, like he's scolding his grandson.

Uncle He dares to argue with my dad, but he doesn't dare to argue with him.

"If you go, you can drink and chat together."

Li Dagen shook his head: "Let's forget about it. I've lived in this courtyard house for so many years, I'm used to it."

Why don't you move there?

Xu Damao chuckled: "I just occasionally come back to stay for a few days."

The house over there has been cleaned up for a long time; my daughter cleans it for me every day.

Li Dagen pointed at Xu Damao, unsure of what to say.

This is why it's safer for Xu Damao to stay in the courtyard; Yi Zhonghai and the others wouldn't dare to mess with him.

If He Yuzhu were living in the courtyard, it would be a scene of chaos every day.

Li Dagen couldn't stop Xu Damao from coming back to watch the fun, so he simply stopped bringing up the topic.

"You just said your retirement money was embezzled. Whose retirement money was embezzled?"

Xu Damao glanced outside, then mysteriously moved closer to Li Dagen. (End of Chapter)
