Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Bang Geng and his wife, along with Yi Zhonghai, returned to the courtyard house almost simultaneously.

Both of them looked extremely unhappy, clearly displeased.

The couple saw people but didn't greet them or give way; they just kept walking forward without saying a word.

Yi Zhonghai was immediately very dissatisfied.

He never had children and was extremely sensitive. Any small setback would be magnified.

Especially when he was down on his luck, he would not tolerate any disrespect towards him.

Bang Geng's behavior was simply challenging his bottom line.

"Bang Geng, you stop right there! Can't you see the three of us elders?"

Banggeng stopped in his tracks, slowly turned his head, and his eyes were red.

This is how Bang Geng reacted after seeing the hickeys on Cui Xin's body.

The thought of not being able to repay the money and his wife being forced into prostitution made him want to kill someone.

When Yi Zhonghai saw Bang Geng's appearance, he was so frightened that he took a step back. Then, feeling embarrassed, he took two steps forward.

"What is your attitude now?"

When Yan Bugui saw that Bang Geng was not in a good state, he quickly stepped forward to stop Yi Zhonghai.

"Old Yi, forget it, Bang Geng must be too tired and wants to go back to rest."

Actually, Yi Zhonghai regretted saying that as soon as he finished speaking.

In this situation, his only hope lies with Bang Geng. No matter how angry he is, he shouldn't take it out on Bang Geng.

But it's impossible for him to apologize.

He just felt that now was not the time to lose his temper with Bang Geng, but he didn't think that Bang Geng was right.

Taking advantage of Yan Bugui's obstruction, Yi Zhonghai went down the steps, snorted, and walked around the stick to go back first.

Tang Yanling pointed at the backs of Yi Zhonghai and the other two and asked Bang Geng, "Are you still willing to support these three old bastards?"

Banggeng clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "We'll move out tomorrow."

Tang Yanling was finally satisfied: "We should have moved out a long time ago. Staying with him has brought us nothing good."

I still have a gold necklace hidden away. Let's sell it and rent a place first.

Banggeng nodded heavily.

Inside courtyard number 95, Geng Guangjian and the others gathered together, waiting for Yi Zhonghai.

Qin Huairu didn't bring them food in the morning or at noon, and they wanted to find Yi Zhonghai to demand an explanation.

When they saw Yi Zhonghai and his two companions return, the crowd gathered around them.

Yi Zhonghai was already in a bad mood, and seeing these people, he couldn't hold back any longer.

"What are you all doing? You have nothing better to do?"

"Grandpa, why are you taking it out on us? It's not like we asked you to pay us money."

We just want to know if the nursing home will continue operating.

To do it or not?
Yi Zhonghai dared not answer.

From a retirement perspective, it definitely needs to continue. Banggeng's attitude just now shows that without supervision, his retirement is insecure.

But getting it done is easier said than done. The biggest problem is that he doesn't have the money.

When he was at the height of his fame, no one cared about anything else; everyone rushed to buy things from the courtyard.

But once he fell on hard times, everyone changed their attitude. Not only did no one stand up to help him solve his problems, but they also conspired to drive him to despair.

"What are you talking about? You bunch of heartless bastards, we shouldn't have kept you around in the first place."

Liu Haizhong exploded, and before Yi Zhonghai could speak, he first gave the neighbors in the courtyard a good scolding.

Yi Zhonghai suddenly felt that this was pretty good, no need to agonize over it anymore.

After having this feeling, Yi Zhonghai gave up and stopped trying to win over the neighbors in the courtyard.

"Second Uncle, how dare you talk to us like that? Don't you think about your own son?"

"Your own son is not filial, how dare you criticize us?"

"You deserve to die."

The greatest pain in Liu Hai's heart is that his son is unfilial.

This is especially unacceptable to him at times like this.

Liu Haizhong's chest ached from the stimulation, and he could barely stand.

Geng Guangjian and his men were terrified and dared not continue to cause trouble, so they all dispersed.

They gathered together again to discuss countermeasures.

"Judging from their expressions, Jin Qihao definitely didn't agree to see them."

"What should we do next?" Silence fell over the room.

After a moment, Geng Guangjian said helplessly, "What else can we do?"

"Let's move."

“But…” some people are unwilling.

Living in a courtyard house means having nothing to worry about and not having to spend any money. Who would want to give up such a life?

"But what?" Geng Guangjian countered.

Someone said, "Guangjian, we didn't find Shazhu and Xu Damao today, but we can continue looking for them tomorrow."

"Is it really that easy to give up?"

Geng Guangjian recalled his conversation with He Yuzhu earlier that day.

Not knowing He Yuzhu's exact location, they split up and went to several of He Yuzhu's companies to intercept him.

Geng Guangjian did not expect that He Yuzhu knew he had come and would meet with him.

When he heard that He Yuzhu wanted to see him, he went to He Yuzhu's office with great excitement.

He relayed the demands of the people in the compound, hoping that He Yuzhu could make them enjoy the same treatment as Zheng Qiang and his ilk.

Unfortunately, He Yuzhu did not agree.

However, He Yuzhu gave him a choice.

He would be given a sum of money if he could persuade the people in the courtyard to move out.

Otherwise, He Yuzhu wouldn't have cared about them.

Between the interests of others and his own interests, Geng Guangjian made a choice.

"What are you looking for? Even if you find it, what can you do? Have you forgotten how we treated him before?"

If you were in our shoes, would you pay to support us?

The word "impossible" popped into everyone's mind.

They're not stupid; why should they spend their own money to support unrelated people?

Geng Guangjian continued, "Yi Zhonghai is willing to support us because it's for his own retirement."

He has no son and doesn't trust the Jia family, so he's trying to win us over so we can keep an eye on them.

But have you ever thought about this?

Even if nothing happened to him, he still has money.

After he dies, will the Jia family still be able to take care of us?
When the time came, he gave the house to the Jia family and received their gratitude.

What about us?
If you ask me, we should go back and live with the kids, so we can get to know each other better.

Our children aren't as unfilial as the children of our second and third uncles.

So what if we argue because we live together?
Everyone argues sometimes.

If everyone compromises, there will be no conflict.

"Guangjian, what do you mean? Are you really going to move out?"

Geng Guangjian said firmly, "What can we do if we don't move? Even if Da Dao doesn't come tomorrow, he'll come the day after to take the house."

Are you going to go against him?

That's definitely not possible.

The people in the courtyard house are all bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong.

Their greatest skill is bullying those who seem like good people.

Even if they had the guts, they wouldn't dare to mess with a bad guy like Da Dao.

If they really had guts, they wouldn't have been suppressed for life by Yi Zhonghai, a man with no descendants.

Many people were persuaded by Geng Guangjian. They figured they would keep an eye on him, and if he moved, they would have no choice but to move as well.

Some people were reluctant to leave, but couldn't find any companions, so they had no choice but to give up.

Tang Yanling took the stick home and took out a gold necklace that she had been keeping hidden away.

"This is my favorite necklace. You should take it out to sell tomorrow."

Banggeng felt a pang of sadness upon seeing the necklace.

This necklace was a gift he bought for Tang Yanling at the beginning of the year.

It's only been a few months since I wore it, and now I'm already going to sell it.

"Wait a minute, I'll definitely buy you an even better one."

"Let's stop talking about this. Let's pack our things." Tang Yanling didn't really believe Bang Geng's words. (End of Chapter)
