Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Yang Ruihua frowned, thought for a moment, and said to his wife, "But the Gao family is in such a difficult situation now. If we continue to take advantage of the situation, we will feel bad and guilty." Yan Fugui snorted coldly and said, "I feel bad and guilty. Let me ask you, how much can a conscience be sold for? What does it matter if you can live a good life, even if you are immoral?"

Yan Fugui is now old, and he has experienced a lot. He has experienced the Japanese invasion of China and three years of brutal civil war. He knows that in today's world, conscience is the most worthless thing. It is useless. If you want to live a good life, you can't have a conscience at all.

Although Yang Ruihua felt that his old man was wrong, he also felt that his old man was not completely wrong. He was also a person who had experienced things, and he knew that if you were too kind, you would be easily bullied by others. Yang Ruihua blinked his eyes and said to his old man tentatively, "Old man, we can't take advantage of the Gao family's house. Where are you going to buy a house?"

Yan Fugui thought about it and felt that there was still an opportunity to take advantage of the Gao family's house. After thinking about it, he said, "I think there is a good chance for the Gao family's house. If 100 yuan is not enough, I believe that no one in the courtyard would dare to lend him money except He Yuzhu. Then we can take the opportunity to ask old man Gao to sell the house to us, and we can lower the price of the house."

Yang Ruihua frowned and said, "What if that Sha Zhu asks to borrow money again? What should we do?" Yan Fugui shook his head firmly and said, "How can there be such a stupid person in this world? I don't think it's possible. I will have a good talk with Sha Zhu this morning and ask him not to lend money to Old Man Gao!"

The second oldest, Yan Jiefang, who was squatting nearby watching the fun, pursed his lips and said, "Dad, stop dreaming. Can He Yuzhu listen to you? He is the canteen director of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, and the couple earns more than 100 yuan a month. What can you do to control him? You can only say a word in front of us brothers."

Yan Fugui's face was so ugly, he pointed at his second son and said, "Bullshit, he is the canteen director of the steel mill, so what? I am still the third uncle in charge of the courtyard. I am still his elder, he must help our family. You brothers are all grown up now, without a house, who will marry you?"

In order to find wives for his two remaining sons, Yan Fugui also abandoned his own moral concepts. It didn't matter to him whether other people's families lived well or not, but he had to find wives for his sons. Yu Li, who was standing next to him, saw this scene and felt really regretful. What kind of person is this father-in-law? How could an elementary school teacher do such a thing? He really regretted that he was really blind to marry the eldest son of the Yan family.

But once I jump into the fire pit, I am afraid I will never get out of it in this life. If I get divorced these days, the neighbors in the courtyard will spit at me. Especially my parents are very face-conscious and will never let their daughter become a divorced person. I shook my head helplessly and went out of the house to get some fresh air.

In the Beijing Hospital, Old Man Gao ran into the ward in a panic. His wife was beside his grandson. His wife looked at her husband and said, "Dad, our grandson is saved. A few strangers just paid for our grandson's medical expenses and guaranteed that Hu Zi's future medical expenses will be free of charge in the hospital."

Old Man Gao was stunned and said, "Are you serious? There is such a good thing." Granny Gao nodded with a smile and said, "Of course, the medical expenses have been paid. Go borrow money from the courtyard. Those bastards in the courtyard will not lend you money!"

Old man Gao smiled bitterly and said, "You guessed wrong. I have 100 yuan in my hand now. It was lent to me by Zhuzi and his wife. They are really good people." Old man Gao told his wife about how he borrowed money in the courtyard, especially the fact that Yan Fugui wanted to take advantage of the situation to rob him. He also told his wife about it.

Granny Gao's face was so dark that she said with a dark face, "These bastards in the courtyard are really not human. They actually wanted to take advantage of our grandson's illness to rob him. I didn't expect that Zhuzi is such a good kid. After He Daqing ran away, my husband and I didn't take care of them. I didn't expect that the child is repaying our kindness with evil now. Alas, my husband and I are really ashamed."

Old man Gao sighed and said, "Alas, I was so old back then, I never thought I would be threatened by Yi Zhonghai. My husband and I should have ignored him back then. Now I think about it, I really feel guilty towards Zhuzi and his sister." Granny Gao sighed and said, "Who can we blame? We were just two lonely old women back then, how could we afford to offend a big man in the courtyard? Now, our two sons will be back soon."

Old man Gao nodded, thought for a moment, and asked his wife, "Hey, old lady, how is Hu Zi doing?" Granny Gao smiled and said, "The doctor just told me that although appendicitis has reached the late stage, it was discovered early. We can just have an operation to remove it, and then we can rest for a while."

Old Man Gao finally heaved a sigh of relief, patted his chest and said, "Good, good, it's really God's blessing. Otherwise, I really don't know how my husband and I would explain it to Dashan after he comes back." Granny Gao also nodded in agreement. Old Man Gao thought about the 100 yuan in his pocket and said, "Old lady, you go back first. I'll take care of my grandson tonight."

After Mr. Gao and Mrs. Gao argued in the ward for a while, Mr. Gao pushed Mrs. Gao back home. The couple were both old and needed to have a good rest. Mrs. Gao naturally knew what her husband meant. After whispering "damn old man", she rushed into the courtyard with a smile on her face.
