Courtyard House: Report enemy agents at the start, and you'll take off immediately.

Putting everything else aside, let's just take bangs as an example.

He was indeed unkind to Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian, both beating and verbally abusing them.

They weren't even allowed to eat good food.

However, Liu Haizhong never pointed out any faults about Liu Guangqi.

We won't go into how he usually treats Liu Guangqi here.

Take marriage as an example.

Zhao De remembered the plot of the TV series.

Liu Haizhong once arranged a matchmaker for his second son, Liu Guangtian.

However, the other party disliked Liu Guangtian for not having a house or savings.

Why are we broke?

Where did the money go?

Zhao De was also puzzled at the time, so he investigated further.

This investigation uncovered a major problem.

Liu Haizhong's family's monthly expenses do not exceed five yuan.

Based on his monthly salary of over seventy yuan.

I can save at least fifty yuan a month, and maybe more.

Of course, his previous salary was indeed not high.

However, if we calculate based on a promotion speed of three years to level seven, three years to level six, and three years to level five.

Over the course of ten years, he should have saved at least three thousand yuan.

This means!

Liu Haizhong bought Liu Guangqi a house and arranged a job for him through connections.

In addition, there are all the expenses for the wedding, dowry, banquet, furniture, large items, etc.

The total expenditure exceeded three thousand yuan, almost emptying the family's savings.

Therefore, when it was the second son Liu Guangtian's turn to get married...

The family has nothing left.

After Liu Guangqi got married and moved out...

He then stopped caring about family matters altogether.

It was as if Liu Haizhong had lost his son from that moment on.

Liu Guangqi seemed to have forgotten about his parents, and never stepped into the courtyard again.

People often say that Liu Haizhong is not a loving father, nor is his son filial, and he has no one to rely on in his old age.

That's not actually the case; he was deeply betrayed by his eldest son, Liu Guangqi.

Judging from the marriage alone...

Liu Guangqi has a responsibility to support Liu Haizhong until his death.

Zhao De dares to guarantee it.

If this is clearly and explicitly shown in the show.

Liu Guangqi will definitely rank high on the list of the most hated characters by the audience.

While I can't guarantee he'll be at the top, he'll definitely be in the top three!

"Um, I need to go to the restroom too."

Liu Guangqi greeted him somewhat awkwardly, then got up and left.

Liu Guangtian's eyes darted around, and he quickly followed up:

"I...I'll go too."

Zhao De immediately understood their intentions.

She definitely needs to go home to get some money; she's going out shopping later!

Go quickly!

Give me more money!

Meanwhile, Liu Guangtian hurried beside his elder brother and said:

“Brother, I noticed that Yan Jiecheng didn’t go to the bathroom at all; he went straight home.”

Liu Guangkun paused slightly, but his mind was quick, and he immediately responded:

"I just don't know how much money he took from his home."

Of the four of them, only he and Yan Jiecheng needed to rely on family support.

Otherwise, there would be no money to participate.

Liu Guangtian continued:

"Brother, no matter how much he takes out, we have to take it all, the more the better."

"If you take too much, you can just return the extra money."

"But..."

"Huh? What's the problem?"

Liu Guangkun asked.

"The problem is that if you ask him directly, you probably won't get much."

Liu Guangtian started teasing his brother, continuing:

"I can help you get rid of Mom, and then I'll tell you where Dad hides the money."

"But let me make this clear first: if Dad comes home tonight and scolds you, don't tell him it was me who said it."

"You know, our dad is very strict with us."

"I can't take that responsibility. I'd probably be bedridden for a week."

"Don't worry, that will never happen."

Liu Guangkun didn't think about it carefully at all; at that moment, all his thoughts were on how to get money.

“Okay, Dad hid the money in an old cotton glove, wrapped in a tattered sweater.”

"Place it under the bed near the headboard. You can see it by simply moving the outermost box."

Upon hearing this, Liu Guangkun was stunned. How could you know such a thing?

"Brother, I'll explain how I found out to you later."

"Don't rush off now, I need to get home quickly and get my mom out of there."

"By the way, we need to hurry, I can't hold on for too long."

"Ok!"

Liu Guangtian quickened his pace and hurried home.

"Mom, it seems like an old man has found a clue."

"Huh? Where is it?"

Auntie Er was immediately astonished; this was big news!

Liu Guangtian replied:

"I've only heard about it from others, but if that's true, then we're just in time. Let's go take a look."

The second aunt didn't even have time to finish the half-eaten steamed bun in her hand before hurriedly following them out.

As Liu Guangtian passed by Liu Guangkun, Liu Guangtian winked at him, who was hiding to the side.

Once the two had walked away and entered the covered walkway, Liu Guangkun immediately rushed home.

Following the instructions, Liu Guangkun found the tattered sweater without any problems.

Upon opening it, it was indeed that old cotton glove.

Even without looking inside, just from the bulging shape...

Liu Guangkun knew things were not simple; there must be a lot of money hidden in the gloves.

When he took out all his money and tickets.

Liu Guangkun was completely shocked—it was a staggering 3,200 yuan!

As for tickets and coupons, there's no need to mention them—they were piled up in huge quantities and of all kinds!

Liu Guangkun pondered for a moment.

I felt that I shouldn't take all of the three thousand yuan at once.
