Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Yi Zhonghai sighed, thought for a while and said, "Old Liu, what do you think you are going to do? I think what Old Yan said is right. Guangqi is a capable kid, and he is a real technical secondary school graduate. Maybe the kid doesn't have enough money, and he is afraid that you don't want him to go out of town, so he came up with this bad idea. If you really call the police, your eldest son's future will be ruined!"

Liu Haizhong thought about it and thought that maybe his son was really broke and just borrowed his money. After thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Let's leave it at that. Maybe Guangqi is really broke. It's inevitable that there will be a lot of expenses for a young couple to go to other places. Didn't the letter say that? He will definitely come back after the Chinese New Year."

Wu Cuihua wiped her tears and cried, "My poor son, you didn't come back until the Chinese New Year. I, as a mother, must be worried sick. There are still three or four months before the Chinese New Year. My poor son..." Liu Haizhong snorted coldly and said, "Okay, stop yelling. Our son is not dead. He will definitely come back to see us after the Chinese New Year."

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu, who were standing by, had eyes full of resentment, secretly comparing themselves with the eldest son. If it was him who stole the money and ran away, his parents would definitely call the police immediately, regardless of whether it was a letter or not. Liu Guangtian gritted his teeth, unable to hide the resentment in his heart. He and the third son were beaten by their father every night since they were young, but the eldest son had never been beaten at all.

Liu Haizhong glared at his two sons and scolded, "You two little beasts, why don't you help me and your mother up? You have no filial piety at all." The two of them quickly helped Liu Haizhong and his wife up, and then helped them sit on the kang beside them. Looking at the people watching the fun outside, Liu Haizhong sighed and said, "Okay, you guys go ahead, we've watched the fun here."

Yi Zhonghai and Yan Fugui walked out of Liu Haizhong's house, and Liu Haizhong closed the door. Then there was crying in Liu Haizhong's house. The two brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu cried very sadly, and their cries were mixed with their begging for mercy. Liu Haizhong hit them with a stick and cursed, "You little beast, I'm going to teach you a lesson today and let you take my money."

The people in the yard looked at each other. Sister Hua couldn't stand it anymore and said to Yan Fugui, "Uncle Three, it's not right for Uncle Two to beat the child like that. Why don't you two go and persuade them to stop beating the child? What should we do if they hurt the child?"

Yan Fugui shook his head. He would never do anything that was not beneficial. Liu Haizhong didn't beat his own son, so why did he care so much about other people's business? Yan Fugui said, "This is the Liu family's family affair, and we can't intervene so much. Everyone should do what they need to do, and don't gather here."

Yi Zhonghai said, "Isn't the Jia family holding a banquet today? Young ladies and wives who are free in the courtyard can go and help. We are a very united and friendly courtyard. When one family has something to do, the whole courtyard will help."

Jia Zhang nodded quickly and said, "Yes, yes, yes, today is a good day for shopping. We are an orphan and a widow, so see if you can help us. Old Yan, you have to be the accountant for our family today." When the people in the yard heard this, their hearts skipped a beat.

Blacksmith Sun slapped his forehead and said, "Oh my god, look at my memory. I have a business deal and need to go today. Let's chat here first. I have things to do now." Sister Hua also glared at him and left in a hurry.

After a while, most of the people in the yard ran away. Only Yan Fugui and Yi Zhonghai were left. Although she didn't know why these people ran away, Jia Zhang knew that the two people in front of her must not run away. She quickly grabbed the two and said, "You two can't run away, especially you, Old Yi. You are our Dongxu's master. You must help us today."

Yi Zhonghai broke open Jia Zhang's clenched hands and smiled. But the smile was directed at Jia Dongxu who was standing beside him. "Dongxu is my disciple. How could I do such a thing? Old Yan, Lao Liu is not in a good state today. As the elders of Dongxu's wedding banquet, we must take responsibility."

Yan Fugui frowned and asked, "Why do I have something to do with this?" Jia Zhang said unhappily, "Why don't you have anything to do with this? You are the third uncle in our courtyard. You are the leader of our courtyard and you must be responsible for Dongxu's wedding." Looking at the hand that was held tightly, Yan Fugui was speechless.

Liu Guangqi and his new wife Zhao Erya were sitting in a train carriage 30 miles away from the capital. Zhao Erya looked at Liu Guangqi and said, "It's not a good idea for us to do this. We should also give back the money left by your parents." Liu Guangqi said proudly, "It will cost a lot for us to go to the mountain city, and it's not good to trouble my father-in-law and mother-in-law all the time. I am the most promising son of our Liu family. Isn't the money my parents saved for me?"

But deep down, he was thinking, what kind of people are the Liu family? He knew. He had long been fed up with that family, so he might as well start over in another place. Liu Guangqi was very smart. He took the initiative to leave a letter to his father stating that the money in the family was borrowed by him. Even if he reported it to the police, the police would not care about such a trivial matter.

Although he had never been beaten since he was a child, he often saw his father beating his two younger brothers. He didn't want his future son to have such a grandparent. Leaving the capital was his best choice. Zhao Erya thought for a while and said, "What if your father calls the police? After all, we have gone too far this time."

Liu Guangqi snorted in his heart. This Zhao Erya was not a good person at all. It was not Liu Guangqi who came up with the idea of ​​taking all the money from her family and going to another place with him. Didn't she just not want to live with her parents-in-law? Zhao Erya was not a filial person either.

Looking at the layer of oil on Zhao Erya's face, Liu Guangqi felt very uncomfortable. If he didn't want to have a very powerful father-in-law, he would not marry such a fat woman. Liu Guangqi said with a smile, "Wife, just put your mind at ease. I know my father very well. He will not let the whole city know about such a shameful thing."
