Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Day after day, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui came to the Jia family's house to "check in" every day.

Every time I come, I chat with Yi Zhonghai for most of the day.

The Jia family all knew that these two people were there to support Yi Zhonghai.

The Jia family members were all unhappy.

However, for the sake of the antique jade pendant in Yi Zhonghai's possession, they had no choice but to endure it for the time being.

Soon, the Jia family could no longer contain themselves and sat down together to discuss countermeasures.

Tang Yanling questioned Qin Huairu: "Are you even capable? Can you find out the whereabouts of the jade pendant?"

Qin Huairu began to doubt her own charm once again.

The first suspicion arose with He Yuzhu.

At the tender age of eighteen, having just gotten married, she had never failed in her endeavors thanks to her beauty.

It was He Yuzhu who gave her the first failure in her life.

That was a deeply etched memory for her.

Apart from He Yuzhu, practically no one can make her fail.

Her greatest triumph came from Yi Zhonghai. With her beauty, she managed to turn this old fox in the courtyard into her devoted follower.

Even as she grew old, Yi Zhonghai remained unchanged in his sycophantic nature.

She thought that she could use her understanding nature to get Yi Zhonghai to obediently take out the jade pendant.

As a result, no matter what she did, Yi Zhonghai wouldn't budge.

Every time the jade pendant was mentioned, Yi Zhonghai would use the excuse of keeping it as a family heirloom to shut her up.

"I do not know."

Jia Zhangshi said with dissatisfaction, "Don't you know? What are you good for?"

I think you're just not putting in your best effort.

"I didn't," Qin Huairu quickly protested.

As long as she got the jade pendant, she wanted Yi Zhonghai dead more than anyone else.

As long as Yi Zhonghai lives, she will always bear the name of Yi Qinshi.

Only with Yi Zhonghai dead can she wash away the stain on her reputation, remove the label of Yi Qinshi, and return to the Jia family with a clean conscience.

Bang Geng didn't want to criticize Qin Huairu too much, so he said, "Let's not talk about other things."

Our most important task now is to obtain Yi Zhonghai's jade pendant.

Mom, ask him tomorrow whether he'll give it to you or not.

If you don't give it to us, we'll forcibly search your place after Yanling and I get off work.

I just don't believe it.

They turned the house upside down, but still couldn't find the jade pendant.

Qin Huairu quickly said, "I've searched many times. I simply can't find it."

Your grandmother and I suspect he might have hidden the jade pendant outside.

Then she recounted what she had discussed with Jia Zhangshi, and also mentioned that she had been following Yi Zhonghai for many days.

Bang Geng said, "How could he dare to hide something so valuable outside?"

Could it be in Liu Haizhong's or Yan Bugui's hands?

"No," Qin Huairu said confidently. "Yi Zhonghai is the type of person who won't trust anyone."

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were not good people either.

If they had the jade pendant, they would have run away long ago; they wouldn't be coming to see Yi Zhonghai every day.

Considering the character of the three old men, Bang Geng couldn't refute them.

Tang Yanling thought about it carefully and decided that she couldn't wait any longer.

Yi Zhonghai is sick, but his health doesn't seem to be too bad. With some rest, he might be fully recovered.

In that case, they would have to serve Yi Zhonghai like cattle and horses.

This was something she was very unhappy about.

To get rid of Yi Zhonghai, the jade pendant is an unavoidable key. Having invested so much in Yi Zhonghai, she won't be content without the jade pendant.

We must find the whereabouts of the jade pendant, and we must find it as soon as possible.

"This is what I'm thinking: let's confront him. Let's tell him that if he produces the jade pendant, we'll take good care of him."

If you don't take it, then let it fend for itself.

Qin Huairu said helplessly, "Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui come to see him every day."

They're here to spy on us.

If we treat him badly, those two old men will definitely cause trouble for our family. They might even report us to the police.

Tang Yanling said, "That's not a problem. Tomorrow I'll have Bang Geng go find Liu Guangqi and Yan Jiecheng and ask them to keep those two old geezers in check."

Banggeng said guiltily, "Even if I told them, they wouldn't listen. I can't exactly beat them up, can I?"

Tang Yanling said disdainfully, "Who told you to lay a hand on them? If you dared to lay a hand on them, they would dare to call the police and have you arrested."

Go find them and tell them.

If they don't take care of these two old guys, what will happen when they get old?

We followed suit and supervised them every day.

If they are unfilial, we will call the police.

I refuse to believe they would dare to ignore it.

Banggeng's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "Wife, you're so smart. Let's do it this way."

Those guys wouldn't care about those two old geezers at all.

Using this tactic, they'll definitely submit obediently.

Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu didn't say anything, but they were equally happy.

Tang Yanling's plan wasn't over yet, and she continued, "Grandma, when those two old geezers come again tomorrow, don't boil water for them."

If they are thirsty, they drink cold water.

Also, don't give them any face; scold them if you need to, and ideally, scold them so badly they won't dare come back.

Instead of being angry because she was instructed by Tang Yanling, Jia Zhangshi readily agreed.

"Granddaughter-in-law, don't worry. I'm best at cursing people. Watch me curse them to death."

Tang Yanling smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble you. There's one more thing, but I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you a little."

If they don't leave, you and Mom will eat cornbread for lunch, and you'll also send cornbread to Yi Zhonghai.

If you all eat cornbread, those two old guys won't be able to find anything to cause trouble for.

When I get back tonight, I'll have Banggeng buy you some meat so you can have a good meal to nourish yourselves.

Madam Jia was somewhat unwilling, but in order to get the jade pendant, she had no choice but to agree.

Next, some additional details will be provided.

As planned, Bang Geng went to find Liu Guangqi and Yan Jiecheng.

Liu Guangqi was overthinking things. Fearing that Yan Bugui would use the same tactic if Liu Haizhong fell ill in the future, he followed Banggeng to find Yan Jiecheng.

"Let's make a gentleman's agreement. I won't interfere in your family's affairs, and you shouldn't interfere in ours either."

how about it? "

Yan Jiecheng and the others weren't stupid; they knew that Liu Guangqi's proposal was in their favor, so they agreed.

Bang Geng was finally relieved: "You guys better go and talk to them as soon as possible."

"My family's affairs are none of their business. If they go there again, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Several people were eager to get rid of the troublesome old man in their house without any hesitation.

But they also knew that Bang Geng wouldn't be so stupid as to do that.

Jia Zhangshi thoroughly enjoyed her scolding.

He unnamed and berated the three old men.

"In my life, I hate people who meddle in other people's business the most."

Look at that character in the TV series, what a piece of trash.

"If they weren't meddling, would they be living such a miserable life?"

She pointed at an animated film, her insults so obvious that you could tell from her bangs that she was implying something.

While Jia Zhangshi was cursing, Qin Huairu made an excuse to slip away.

Yi Zhonghai didn't dare to argue, so he could only look at Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui with pleading eyes, hoping that the two of them would step forward.

The two men couldn't ignore Yi Zhonghai. If they did, the same fate he suffered might befall them in the future.

They were unwilling, so they had to help Yi Zhonghai.

"Sister-in-law, what you're doing is wrong."

Jia Zhangshi said confidently, "I was criticizing the people on TV, so what's wrong with that?"

It's not good, so can't I even criticize it?

I didn't insult you.

Don't go looking for trouble.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were gagged by Jia Zhangshi and couldn't speak. (End of Chapter)
