Chapter 277: Outshining the Blue, Surpassing the Blue

Yu Li glanced at Yan Bu Gui and continued speaking:

"Just Shazhu's rotten mouth, I can't avoid it every day."

Hearing this, Yan Bu Gui and San Da Ma couldn't help but exchange a glance, both looking anxious.

If we aren't allowed to do it, what a huge loss that would be.

Calling them over yields no benefit, it's a loss; who will they reason with?

Yu Li let out a light sigh and said:

"Alright, alright, you just go on chatting about daily life."

"I'm so tired, my eyes are about to stay shut, ah."

"I'm heading back first."

San Da Ma hurriedly said, "Hey, no, no......"

Yu Li ignored her, stood up, and walked toward the outside.

San Da Ma hurriedly also stood up and shouted toward Yu Li's back:

"Hey, that's not what I meant."

Yu Li didn't look back.

Yan Jiecheng looked at San Da Ma and said:

"Mom, you must remember a saying of my father."

"Children cannot support themselves; that is the greatest unfilial act."

"Even within a family, finances must be clear."

Having said that, Yan Jiecheng looked at Yan Bu Gui and continued:

"Finances clear, Dad, you said that before, right?"

Yan Bu Gui gave Yan Jiecheng a cold stare and closed his eyes.

Yan Jiecheng smiled and said:

"Fine, you're bothering me, so I'm going to sleep now."

Having said that, he stood up and walked out.

San Da Ma stood up, facing his back, about to speak but held back.

After he disappeared from view, San Da Ma finally looked at Yan Bu Gui, her face anxious, and said:

"Me, I said, old man, you could at least say something."

Yan Bu Gui, with a gloomy expression, asked:

"What am I supposed to say?"

"What else can I say?"

"They've already said everything."

"Hmph, truly a case of the student surpassing the master."

"Now Eldest Son is in debt to me, what can I say?"

Having said that, Yan Bu Gui let out a long sigh, waved his hand at San Da Ma, and continued:

"Sigh, the mistake was that we shouldn't have taken that interest back then."

"If we had taken out thirty percent......"

"Wrong, more reasonable would be to put in fifty percent for equity investment."

"If that were the case, by now the little ledger from the daughter‑in‑law's restaurant would still be here, being fiddled with."

San Da Ma glared at him and said irritably:

"It's still being fiddled with; everyone has already taken it away."

Yan Bu Gui let out a long sigh, said nothing.

He also had nothing to say.

If there were a regret‑pill now, he would swallow it on the spot.

The next day.

Liu Haizhong really did tear down those two temporary structures.

Xu Damao clasped his hands in front of his chest, stepped out, and said to Liu Haizhong, who was picking up bricks:

"Second Elder, I think if you tear down this little house, sooner or later you'll regret it."

Liu Haizhong gave Xu Damao a cold stare and said irritably:

"Not that, Xu Damao, how many times have you said that?"

"You said it before it was torn down, and you keep saying it after."

Xu Damao: "I'm just worried you'll regret it in the future."

Liu Haizhong: "Then what can we do? It's already torn down."

Xu Damao laughed: "Then rebuild it."

Liu Haizhong looked at Xu Damao, and after a moment said two words: "Get lost!"

Xu Damao's complexion instantly darkened.

Liu Haizhong continued: "Xu Damao, I tell you, I'm also happy to regret this."

Xu Damao: "Not that, it depends on the situation; you need to look further."

"Do you see anyone outside Dongzhimen?"

"The demolished little house, everyone gets compensation."

"That's outside the city; ours is inside the city, ah."

I still need to first make some space for my old partner to move around.

How is this not better than anything?

Xu Damao let out a cold snort and said:

You, you've really been fooled by Shazhu.

Liu Haizhong looked at Xu Damao and then gave him two words:

Get lost!

Xu Damao became upset: "Ah, not like this."

This, you need to face forward, not backward, right?

I'm the one who transferred your eldest son back.

Liu Haizhong picked up a brick, pointed at Xu Damao, and said angrily:

Then you might as well not have transferred him back.

Xu Damao became even more upset: "Fine, I spoke for nothing."

After saying that, Xu Damao turned and headed home.

At the same time.

Qin Huairu's home.

Xiao Dang happily said to Qin Huairu:

Mom, Sha Shu said he's made quite a bit of money this month.

He wants to take our whole family to Eight Great Ridges for a bit of fun.

Qin Huairu glanced at Xiao Dang and said angrily:

What play, you're already so old, why are you still thinking about playing?

Your brother currently has no job and no partner, I'm worried to death.

Wouldn't it be good to save some money?

Xiao Dang said somewhat upset: "No, that savings would also be for Sha Shu."

Sha Shu is paying, what do you have to be unhappy about?

Let's just go, okay?

Qin Huairu: "Not going."

Huaihua: "Ah, sis, Mom is reluctant to spend money."

Xiao Dang: "It's not her money."

Huaihua: "You don't know this? Mom has already taken all of Sha Shu's wages."

Sha Shu has no money now; if he takes us to Eight Great Ridges, we won't let Mom spend money.

So this time I'm siding with Mom and not going.

Xiao Dang exclaimed: "No, Mom has already taken all of Sha Shu's wages!"

Huaihua: "Ah, I thought you knew."

Not only has Mom already taken all of Sha Shu's factory wages, but she's also taken all of his wages from the restaurant outside.

Jia Zhangshi: "Exactly, I also support your mom."

What's with Eight Great Ridges? How much money would that cost?

Shazhu has no money either; he's just trying to get something for nothing.

Xiao Dang: "What does that have to do with anything? You've brought up getting something for nothing."

Sha Shu also just wants to spend more time with us, to interact and deepen feelings.

Mom, this isn't right; Sha Shu's money is all yours, he just wants to go play a bit, and you won't even satisfy him?

Qin Huairu frowned, reached out her hand to Xiao Dang, and said:

Fine, I'll satisfy him—where's the money?

Xiao Dang pursed his lips and said nothing.

Jia Zhangshi let out a long sigh and said:

Xiao Dang, just listen to your mom, okay.

If you have money to spend on fun, what's wrong with doing something else?

Your brother currently has neither a job nor a partner.

Xiao Dang: "Fine, we won't go."

No way, I'm going with Huaihua.

But Mom, I need to say something about you.

Since you've taken all of Sha Shu's money, you shouldn't be so stingy with him.

Otherwise, he might stop giving you money in the future.

Qin Huairu: "He dares!"

Xiao Dang: "Fine, fine, fine, he doesn't dare, alright?"

Then I'll say it again: you really don't pay attention to your image at all.

Look at Sha Shu, he always dresses nicely. You, when you're with him, always look much older than him.
