He wanted to persuade Old Man Qiao not to be so ruthless.

After all, she is my son’s daughter and my granddaughter. How can I just kick her out?

Old man Qiao, however, stuck his neck out and refused to give in.

Fang Yaozhong kept talking, and Old Man Qiao got a little impatient: "This job belongs to our Qiao family. I can give it to whoever I want!"

"Besides, I didn't drive Gu Xiaoni out. If she doesn't want to stay in our Qiao family, do I have to go and beg her on my knees?"

Fang Yaozhong: ...Why is this old man so unreasonable?

If you don't adopt the child and don't suggest that your daughter-in-law marry your nephew, would Gu Xiaoni hide away to avoid suspicion?

"Oh, I'm not reasonable, I'm just a jerk! Fang Yaozhong, how good are you?"

"You just don't have any relatives in your hometown. If your damn brother had a son, you would adopt him too!"

Seeing Fang Yaozhong's face full of disapproval, Old Man Qiao, who always had a bad temper, didn't tolerate it at all.

Humph, we all live in the same yard, so who doesn’t know who?

Fang Yaozhong has two daughters, but he did not marry a son-in-law like the Bai family in the backyard did.

He would rather promote his apprentice than his daughter or son-in-law.

What does he want to do?

Isn’t it the same as me, wanting to have a “son” to take care of him in his old age and see him to the end of his life?

In the past, it was because of Qiao Jianguo that old man Qiao wanted his son to study technology at Fang Yao Middle School.

Old man Qiao was very polite to Fang Yaozhong and even seemed to be trying to please him.

But now that his son is dead, Old Man Qiao is unwilling to endure it anymore!

Fang Yaozhong was hit directly in the face and felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

In the slum, he is the uncle in charge.

When he went to the machinery factory, he was a master craftsman who even the leaders were polite to him.

When did he get squeezed like this?

But Fang Yaozhong couldn't get angry——

Qiao Jianguo died to save himself.

No matter how much of a bastard Old Man Qiao is, he is still Qiao Jianguo's biological father.

If Fang Yaozhong started to argue with old man Qiao, outsiders would definitely call him ungrateful and ungrateful!

Damn!

There's really nothing we can do about the Qiao family's mess!

With a flick of his sleeves, Fang Yaozhong left the Qiao family.

Coming to the yard and letting the night breeze blow, Fang Yaozhong calmed down again.

Don't be angry!

Gu Xiaoni, an orphan and a widow, was left behind by Qiao Jianguo.

Alas, if you are saved by someone, you must repay them.

Fang Yaozhong is valued by people in the street and factory, not only because of his skills, but also because he is a kind person.

After standing in the yard and thinking about it, Fang Yaozhong came up with an idea.

He began knocking on doors.

"This is thirty-nine yuan, all donated by the neighbors in the compound."

"As for you, if you really go back to your parents' home, take this money."

Fang Yaozhong stuffed a stack of scattered banknotes into Gu Qingcheng's hand.

He didn't say that he took only fifteen dollars out of the thirty-nine dollars.

In order not to be outdone by Fang Yaozhong, Zhu Jinshui, the second uncle in the backyard, also took ten yuan.

The remaining money was collected from other neighbors, one dollar and eighty cents at a time.

Except for Widow Liu and the Qiao family, the neighbors in the front and back courtyards all donated money.

"this--"

Gu Qingcheng was somewhat touched.

I also seemed to experience the kindness and simplicity unique to this era.

"Take it! Don't refuse! After all, we're neighbors living in the same yard. We all grew up watching Jianguo!"

In order to prevent Gu Qingcheng from refusing, Fang Yaozhong stuffed the money into her hands and left.

"Oh! I didn't know about that!"

"How about this, Qiao'er's mother, take this fifty cents back."

Widow Liu felt a little uncomfortable. She said "Qiao'er's mother" but actually shouted at Fang Yaozhong's back.

Fang Yaozhong paused for a moment, without looking back, but continued walking towards the front yard.

"No! Auntie, we are not only neighbors, but also relatives."

Gu Qingcheng didn't take the fifty cents that Widow Liu pushed back. She smiled and said, "It was Brother Changhe and you who helped me marry Jianguo. I will always remember this kindness."

"Okay, it's getting late, and I'm in a hurry to get home, so I won't tell you first."

"Let's talk later!"

As Gu Qingcheng spoke, he stuffed the money into his trouser pocket.

She pulled Qiao Qiao up and said goodbye to Widow Liu.

"Hey! Talk to you later!"

Widow Liu didn't think much about it and just thought that "goodbye" was just a casual remark made by Gu Qingcheng.

"Let me take you there!"

Widow Liu walked out of the house enthusiastically with Gu Qingcheng and her daughter, tiptoeing on her bound feet.

As soon as I arrived in the yard, a young man came out of the west wing.

"Hey! Huazi, you're awake? You're fine now, you can even get out of bed!"

Widow Liu had sharp eyes and when she saw the familiar figure, she greeted him immediately.

As soon as she finished speaking, Widow Liu felt a little regretful.

She subconsciously looked at Gu Qingcheng——

These two are the Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing mentioned by Ma!
