Siheyuan: Struggle Begins in the 1950s

Before Yan Jiecheng could say anything, Yan Jiedian couldn't hold it anymore.

She is not working yet and has no salary.

She was pretty though.

I had originally thought of marrying someone from a wealthy family and escaping from this home as soon as possible.

Who would have thought that his father was now even eyeing his dowry money.

How will I ever get married if this continues?

Yan Jiecheng also said dissatisfiedly:

"Dad, you're not the one. Don't think I don't know that you must have stolen the steamed bread today! Jie Kuang Jiefang stole your money, how come you want to put it on me and Jie Di!"

Yan Fugui felt a little embarrassed when his son discovered his plan.

He said dissatisfiedly:

"Why? I gave birth to you and raised you. Is it wrong for me to ask you for some living expenses now?"

"But Dad, we're not calculating like you. We give you five dollars per person per month for living expenses."

"Is five dollars a lot? Five dollars is the lowest standard of living in this city!"

When Yan Fugui said this, Yan Jiecheng also started to settle accounts with him.

There is no end to this calculation.

Finally, Yan Jiecheng simply stood up and said:

"In that case, then we don't have to forget about it! I'm married now, so let's separate now!"

"Divide the family? What nonsense are you talking about! It's not your turn to make the decision in this family!"

Yan Fugui doesn't want to split up the family.

If the family is divided, what reason do I have to suck Yan Jiecheng's blood?

"Dad, I'm not discussing this with you now. I've already agreed with Yu Li that we'll cook on our own. I won't be eating with you anymore."

"Okay, Yan Jiecheng! I tell you that if you want to split up, you have to pay me back all the money you owe me over the years!"

Yan Fugui also became famous.

First, the second and third brothers ran away with all the money, and now the eldest brother wants to separate from me.

I gave birth to so many children, but not one of them is reliable.

In that case, I'd just focus on money instead of people from now on.

"Okay, then let's hold a meeting of the whole hospital and let everyone in the hospital make the final decision."

"Open it if you want. I don't believe that an ungrateful person like you can be right."

The father and son have now completely fallen out.

So the two of them simply went out to the yard to look for people.

After a while, a lot of people gathered in the central courtyard.

Speaking of which, since the storm started, the hospital has basically not held any full-hospital meetings.

Among the three uncles in charge, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong have become incompetent, and the uncle in charge Yan Fugui is just a decoration.

I didn't expect that today Old Yan would take the initiative to propose holding a meeting of the entire hospital.

Yan Fugui subconsciously wanted to sit at the steward's desk.

But Yan Jiecheng quit.

"Dad! Today's meeting is about the matter between you and me. It's not appropriate for you to sit there. How can the decision made at that time be fair and just?"

"Then where else can I sit if not here? I am the only one in charge of this courtyard."

Yan Fugui naturally wanted to use his status as the manager to gain an advantage.

But Yan Jiecheng learned his lesson this time.

"No, you have to avoid suspicion this time because of your identity as the second uncle. So I asked Director Xu to preside over the meeting this time!"

As Yan Jiecheng was speaking, Xu Damao slowly came out from the backyard.

It was still a hot day, but Xu Damao insisted on wearing a coat.

With a missing piece of his ear, it looked a bit out of place.

Seeing Xu Damao, Yan Fugui felt a little nervous.

He quickly stood up and greeted Xu Damao.

"Director Xu, why are you bothering with this matter? This is our own family matter."

Xu Damao waved his hand impatiently and said:

"Originally, I didn't want to get involved in this matter, but since Yan Jiecheng has come to me for help, I can't just ignore it.

I'm not saying anything bad about you, Old Yan, you're just too stingy. Why do you always think about those little things? Since Yan Jiecheng is already married, you should just separate as soon as possible."

Xu Damao's words clearly showed that he was on Yan Jiecheng's side.

His words made Yan Jiecheng so excited that he almost jumped up.

Yan Fugui cursed Xu Damao in his heart, but he still said angrily:

"Director Xu, since you said so, I will listen to you. But there is one thing, Yan Jiecheng must pay back the money he owes me!"

"Okay, since you agree, then you can settle the bill. Pay Yan Jiecheng whatever money he owes you."

"I don't ask for much. I gave birth to him and raised him for so many years. I provided him with food and drink and found him a wife. I think a thousand yuan is not too much."

Yan Jiecheng jumped up when he heard this number.

"Dad! I'm not as greedy as you are. Why don't you just rob me of the thousand dollars? I won't spend that much money from you!"

"Of course I didn't. I've raised you for thirty years. Food, clothing, shelter and transportation all cost money."

"Nonsense! I have given you living expenses every month over the years. And most of the gift money for my wedding with Yu Li was taken away. From childhood to adulthood, the total amount of money you have spent on me has never exceeded 500 yuan. I have calculated it clearly!"

"Boy! I have been raising you since you were a child, so you have to provide for my retirement. I don't need you to take care of me in the future, so this extra money is your retirement money!"

"No, this is too much! Besides, I worked for you a lot when I was a kid, why don't you just pay me for this?"

The two of them argued endlessly.

Everyone in the courtyard listened with great interest.

There are so many melons to eat in Old Yan’s house.

I thought Old Yan was just stingy, but I didn't expect he was such a person in private.

Even the gift money for his son’s wedding was withheld.

The father and son argued with each other, and finally Xu Damao became impatient.

So he slammed the table to stop the two of them.

Xu Damao didn't want to get entangled in such trivial matters.

He came to preside over this whole-school meeting just to make his presence felt and increase his prestige.

Finally, Xu Damao simply decided to let Yan Jie give Yan Fugui 500 yuan as retirement money, and if the money was not enough, he could pay it back in monthly installments.

From now on, Yan Fugui is not allowed to ask Yan Jiecheng for money.

The house that the couple lives in now is considered the divided family property.

Neither side was very satisfied with the result.

But Yan Fugui thought that at least he had recovered half of his blood.

And Yan Jiecheng finally succeeded in getting his share of the family property.

Although I lost a lot of money.

But as long as he pays back the money, he will be free.

So both sides thought about it and agreed.

"Okay, since both of you have no objection, then follow this decision. Let me make it clear first, if you regret it later, don't come to me."

There was no way the father and son would regret it. They just smiled and watched Xu Damao leave.

After Xu Damao left, the father and son looked at each other again before snorting coldly and turning away.
