Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

"Well, my sister-in-law isn't in good health, so Qin Huairu is taking care of her at home."

Look, she even asked me to bring you six eggs to help you recover.

Yan Bugui held up the lunchbox with an embarrassed expression, trying to convince Yi Zhonghai.

His explanation was already quite considerate.

But this was far from enough to satisfy Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai has very strict requirements for elderly people; they must be able to come when called and leave when dismissed.

It is precisely because of this condition that Sha Zhu is always a backup option and has no chance of becoming the official candidate.

Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu are the most perfect candidates for his retirement.

But now, the person he chose to take care of in his old age has chosen to take care of someone else when he was sick and almost lost his life.

Is this elderly person still a viable option?

If he could go back to the way things were before, he would definitely replace this caregiver.

Yi Zhonghai closed his eyes with a pained expression.

The people present all knew he was in a bad mood, so they all left silently.

The three women then asked Yan Bugui, "Is Qin Huai really so heartless? Has she forgotten the kindness Lao Yi showed her family?"

I've never seen such an ungrateful person.

You can't blame the three aunties for being angry.

If Qin Huai doesn't come to take care of Yi Zhonghai, then it's up to her to take care of him.

She definitely wouldn't be happy.

Liu Haizhong pursed his lips: "Isn't this normal? In our compound, only Lao Yi thinks Qin Huai is filial."

I refuse to believe that you all think she's filial.

Yan Bugui and his wife naturally didn't think Qin Huairu was filial. But that was Yi Zhonghai's insistence, so why should they meddle?

"Old Liu, stop talking. Old Yi is in a bad mood, so don't add fuel to the fire."

How have you been these past few days?

"It's alright," Liu Haizhong said casually.

Originally, they felt that they couldn't make a living after moving out of the courtyard house.

But in reality, life wasn't so bad after they moved out.

Without so many worries, life is very peaceful.

The only regret is that Liu Guangqi never appeared again after he left.

Yan Bugui and his wife exchanged a glance, their curiosity growing about Liu Haizhong's current life.

The two kept asking Liu Haizhong how he was doing. Hearing about his current situation, they felt much more at ease.

"Old Liu, how about I become your neighbor too?"

Liu Haizhong was taken aback: "Are you moving there?"

Yan Bugui sighed: "What can we do if we don't move? If I don't move, Yan Jiecheng and the others won't be able to find jobs."

If they can't find jobs, they'll hate me, their father.

My wife and I are not young anymore.

If they end up like Lao Yi, will they be able to take care of us?
Rather than continuing to rely on it, it's better to give yourself a break.

Liu Haizhong hesitated for a moment before saying, "Let's move. We owe Da Dao so much money, we simply can't pay it back."

Even after he dies, the house will still be his.

There's no need to keep pushing it along.

But what about Lao Yi?
If you all move away too, he'll be the only one left in the courtyard.

Yan Bugui said helplessly, "Let's try to persuade him to move away too."

He and Qin Huairu obtained their marriage certificate.

As long as they remain married, Qin Huairu has an obligation to take care of him.

He had always longed for Qin Huairu to take care of him in his old age.

Without us being such a burden, I think Qin Huairu will definitely agree.

Liu Haizhong was simple-minded. After listening to Yan Bugui's words, he thought they made sense and expressed his agreement.

After reaching an agreement, Yan Bugui wanted to take Yi Zhonghai back to the courtyard house.

Firstly, living here will cost a lot of money. And all of that money was paid by Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui was reluctant to part with it.

Secondly, he wanted to take advantage of Liu Haizhong's presence to have Liu Haizhong step forward and persuade Yi Zhonghai to move.

Yan Bugui, along with Liu Haizhong, went to find Yi Zhonghai: "Why don't we go back to our place?"

"It'll be easier to take care of you once we're back in the courtyard house."

Yi Zhonghai was afraid of dying and didn't want to be discharged from the hospital, but he also knew that they couldn't afford the hospital stay, so he had no choice but to agree to go home.

When Liu Haizhong arrived home, he smelled a musty odor emanating from Yi Zhonghai's house.

"What's that smell in this room? Why don't they clean it?"

Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui were both a little embarrassed. The three aunts quickly said, "Why don't you take Old Yi to my house for a visit?"

I'll tidy him up.

The three of them quickly left the place and went to Yan Bugui's house.

Yan Bugui took out his treasured tea to entertain Liu Haizhong, and then slowly steered the conversation toward moving.

Liu Haizhong fell for the trap and said directly, "I advise you to move."

The house will belong to someone else sooner or later; there's no point in continuing to live here.

Yan Bugui glanced cautiously at Yi Zhonghai's expression before saying, "You're right. Sha Zhu is really a bastard."

He used despicable means to threaten those who wanted to rent the houses, preventing them from moving in.

This is an attempt to wipe us out completely.

Living here is far too dangerous.

Yi Zhonghai already sensed that something was off about Yan Bugui, and now he was even more certain.

Yan Bugui wants to move.

Can he stop him?
No.

The courtyard houses of today are no longer the ones that were once known for their outstanding people and beautiful scenery.

Even if we try to stop it, will it be of any use?

Yan Bugui is not Liu Haizhong; he will not listen to him.

Preventing Yan Bugui from moving would only offend people, and Yi Zhonghai was unwilling to do so.

After what happened last night, Yi Zhonghai just wanted to reassure himself.

Are you moving?

Yan Bugui was a little embarrassed: "It's not that I want to move, it's that I have no choice but to move."

Yi Zhonghai sighed: "Where are you planning to move to? I'll go with you."

Yan Bugui had expected Yi Zhonghai to object, but after hearing his words, he was somewhat incredulous.

Are you moving too?

"Didn't you say we had to move?"

Yan Bugui finally confirmed Yi Zhonghai's idea and quickly said, "Old Liu, go back and have him go find Qin Huairu. Have Qin Huairu come back and help you pack your things."

Before Yi Zhonghai could speak, Liu Haizhong said, "No problem. Qin Huairu is your wife, so she should take care of you."

You're staying at her place, which isn't far from mine. We can get together sometime.

The phrase "Qin Huairu is his wife" ignited Yi Zhonghai's anger.

Qin Huairu's behavior completely broke his heart.

He devoted himself wholeheartedly to the Jia family, ensuring they lived a good life.

How did the Jia family treat him?
When he was sick, neither Qin Huairu nor Banggeng came to see him.

He hates.

The Jia family didn't want to support him in his old age, but he insisted on pestering them to take care of him.

As for whether the Jia family will bully him.

Yi Zhonghai also had a solution.

At worst, I'll just go see Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui every day.

As long as these two people are alive, the Jia family will not dare to neglect him.

"Old Liu, I'll leave it to you then. Please go back and tell Huairu."

Once Lao Yan finds a house, I'll move with him.

The three of us old buddies get together often when we have free time.

Liu Haizhong readily agreed and went back.

"Qin Huairu".

"Old Liu, what brings you here?" Qin Huairu asked with a fake smile as she saw Liu Haizhong approaching.

Liu Haizhong laughed and said, "I have good news for you. Lao Yi has decided to move."

I'll go help Lao Yan find a house tomorrow.

Once Lao Yan found a house, he moved in with Lao Yan.

Don't forget to help him pack his things.

Qin Huairu was almost scared to death.

Is this good news?

This was more of a disaster for her and the Jia family.

What kind of life are they living now?

Yi Zhonghai's arrival was like adding insult to injury for the Jia family.

Qin Huai gave Liu Hai a few perfunctory words and absentmindedly went home. (End of Chapter)
