Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

Yang Ruihua returned home with a gloomy face. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He picked up the chopstick holder on the table and threw it on the ground.

"Oh!"

Yan Jiecheng, who heard the noise in the room, immediately poked his head out and saw the chopsticks scattered on the ground. He asked in confusion:

"Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Yang Ruihua gnashed his teeth and said, "Damn you, Shazhu, why did your father ruin his relationship with Yan? Not only was he expelled from school, but he was also covered in scars. And he actually turned around and found a beautiful girl again. God is blind!"

Hearing this, Yan Jiecheng pouted and said, "Shazhu is now the canteen director. He is in a high position, powerful, young and rich. Isn't it normal for a beautiful girl to fall in love with him?"

"I just don't understand why you and my dad are holding on to Shazhu?"

Yang Ruihua said angrily: "Why do you say that? It's because Sha Zhu caused your father to be ruined and injured and hospitalized."

Yan Jiecheng was speechless and said, "My father has ended up like this because of his own fault, isn't it?"

"Still, my dad was injured and hospitalized. Wasn't it because he fell down? What does that have to do with that stupid guy?"

Yang Ruihua said confidently: "If it weren't for Shazhu, your father wouldn't be so depressed and absent-minded, and he wouldn't have accidentally fallen down."

Yan Jiecheng said with disdain, "Mom, why do I find that you are even more unreasonable than Jia Zhang?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Ruihua roared loudly: "Yan Jiecheng, you rebellious son, which side do you belong to? Why are you always so ungrateful?"

Yan Jiecheng said helplessly: "Mom, didn't you also oppose my dad's dealing with Sha Zhu? Why are you regretting it now?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Ruihua paused for a moment and said in a low voice:

"I do oppose your father's dealing with Sha Zhu. Sha Zhu is now powerful, wealthy and influential. Your father is no match for him."

"But tonight, my neighbors were bullying me because of Sha Zhu. I was so angry that I was filled with resentment towards Sha Zhu."

"Don't tell your dad that Shazhu has a new girlfriend, otherwise he won't be able to rest and recover from his injuries."

"Mom, how about you stay in Dad's bed tonight?"

"You rebellious son, you've only spent a few nights in bed with him and you're already unwilling to do so. He's your biological father."

"It's not that I don't want to pay, but I have to go to work to earn money. If I continue like this, when will I be able to find a wife?"

Yang Ruihua frowned when she heard this. Her son's inability to find a wife had become a knot in her heart.

His family's reputation is now worse than dog shit, and he can't find a wife in the city.

Yang Ruihua took a deep breath and said in a gentle voice: "Xie Cheng, don't worry, after your father is discharged from the hospital, we will go to the countryside to find you a wife."

Yan Jiecheng was dissatisfied and said, "I am a city person. If I want to marry someone, I will marry a city woman. Why should I marry a country woman?"

Yang Ruihua said bitterly, "Xie Cheng, you know our family's reputation now. No matchmaker is willing to introduce you to a date."

Yan Jiecheng complained: "This is all my father's fault. If it weren't for my father, I would have married a wife long ago."

"How can you blame your father for this? If anyone should be blamed, it should be Liu Haizhong and Jia Zhangshi. What does this have to do with your father?"

"How can it not be his business? If my father hadn't offended Sha Zhu, I would have been a formal employee of the steel mill long ago."

"If I were a regular employee of the steel mill, how could I not be able to find a wife?"

"Jie Cheng, those are things of the past. There is no use regretting them. The top priority now is to find you a wife as soon as possible. The older you get, the harder it will be to find a wife..."

"If it's hard to find, then don't look for it. I'm not in a hurry anyway."

Since Yan Jiecheng's visit to prison, some subtle changes have taken place psychologically and he no longer thinks about women as much as before.

Hearing this, Yang Ruihua frowned and said, "What are you talking about? Men and women should get married when they are old enough. There is no rush to get married. Do you want to be single for the rest of your life?"

"There's nothing wrong with being single. If one person is well fed, the whole family will not be hungry."

"Jie Cheng, please stop saying those angry words. There's nothing bad about rural wives. For example, Qin Huairu is pretty, but she's also hardworking and family-oriented. If you marry a wife like her, you can enjoy happiness!"

"Mom, are you out of your mind? Can Qin Huairu be considered a good wife? Haven't you seen how bad her reputation is now?"

"Qin Huairu was unlucky. Her husband died. If her husband hadn't died, would she have shown up in public and become notorious?"

"You've seen what Qin Huairu was like when Jia Dongxu was still alive, right?"

"Ever since Qin Huairu married into the Jia family, Jia Zhangshi has never done housework again..."

"Mom, you want to find me a rural wife. Is it to carry on my family line or to lighten your burden? To live a life like Jia Zhangshi, where you can have everything you want?"

"What are you talking about, kid? I'm looking for a wife for your own good. I also want to find you a city wife, but unfortunately no city girl is willing to marry you now."

"You'll find it if you look for it."

"Okay, let's talk about this later. Go to the hospital and take care of your father first!"

On the other side, He Yuzhu sent Yu Haitang to her doorstep.

"Brother Zhuzi, thank you!"

"You're welcome! Then you can rest early. I'll go back first."

"Brother Zhuzi, please ride slower and be careful on the road."

"it is good!"

"and many more!"

He Yuzhu was about to leave when Yu Haitang suddenly called him. He Yuzhu asked in confusion, "Haitang, is there anything else?"

Yu Haitang said shyly: "Brother Zhuzi, are you free tomorrow? I want to invite you to watch a movie."

He Yuzhu raised his eyes slightly, and then said: "I will have time after get off work."

"Then let's go to the movies after get off work!"

"No problem! But I'll still treat you. After all, you're still a student and have no source of income."

"Then I'll hire you when I get a job..."

"Okay, then let's meet at the entrance of the cinema tomorrow?"

"How about I wait for you at the entrance of the steel mill tomorrow?"

"Alright, see you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow!"

When He Yuzhu returned home, he found the deaf old lady was eagerly waiting for him.

"Old lady, why haven't you slept yet?"

"I have something to discuss with you."

"What's the matter, you say?"

The deaf old lady asked calmly, "Zhu Zi, what do you think of Yu Haitang?"

He Yuzhu was silent for a moment, then said: "The girl is pretty, but she is a little cunning."

Hearing this, the deaf old lady nodded with satisfaction: "Zhu Zi, you have indeed matured. This girl is indeed very cunning, and her character is also problematic."

"I heard from Yu Shui that there was a classmate in her class who had been pursuing her. She neither refused nor agreed. She accepted the gifts given to her with a clear conscience."

"You said you didn't have feelings for her, so why didn't you accept her gifts? You said you accepted her gifts, so why did she come to you for a blind date? Isn't that just fickle?"
