"Now I've finally come to my senses, I want to mend my relationship with my father!"
"In the future, I'll take care of him in his old age!"
"It's not easy for him to work outside and earn money to support us!"
"Bang Geng, you..."
"You've finally become sensible!" Qin Huairu's emotions broke down instantly, and she hugged Bang Geng and cried.
At this moment, Yi Zhonghai also felt a sense of bewilderment: Could it be that this kid Bang Geng has really started to understand things?
Qin Huairu held Bang Geng in her arms, sobbing loudly.
This was supposed to be a harmonious scene, but unbeknownst to them, a sinister glint flashed across Bang Geng's face.
Bang Geng's current gentle attitude towards Yi Zhonghai was a sign of his final moments before a relapse.
This was the calm before the storm, and it wouldn't last long.
After all, Yi Zhonghai was an adult.
If Bang Geng wanted him to die unexpectedly, he had to resort to insidious tricks.
To plot against Yi Zhonghai, he had to first make Yi Zhonghai lower his guard.
If Yi Zhonghai remained highly vigilant every day, Bang Geng would never have a chance to succeed.
Yi Zhonghai's contentment lasted only for a moment before quickly returning to normal.
Regardless of whether what Bang Geng had just said was sincere or insincere,
Yi Zhonghai could not place all his hopes for his future old age on him.
After all, Bang Geng was a Jia family member, not an Yi family member.
Although the Jia family was now in disarray, it was because Jia Zhangshi was in prison.
When Jia Zhangshi was released from prison in the future, Bang Geng would very likely return to the Jia family.
In any case, Yi Zhonghai had to raise an heir for the Yi family.
Even if it was a daughter, he had to grit his teeth and raise at least one.
Otherwise, his later years would be extremely bleak.
Bang Geng's softened attitude moved Qin Huairu to tears, but Yi Zhonghai remained indifferent.
This made Qin Huairu very displeased: "Old Yi, the child has admitted his mistake and repented, can't you show some of your attitude?"
"Or, you still refuse to forgive Bang Geng, is that right?"
"What are you talking about?"
Yi Zhonghai replied righteously: "How could I bicker with a child?"
"Let the past be the past!"
"Ever since we got married, I've treated Bang Geng as my own son!"
"Xiao Ru, don't worry, our father-son relationship will gradually improve!"
At this point, Yi Zhonghai also stepped forward, patted Bang Geng on the shoulder, and smiled.
"Bang Geng, from now on, whatever happens between father and son, we must sit down and discuss it properly!"
"As long as we communicate honestly with each other, there will be no more misunderstandings!"
"Mmm!"
Bang Geng nodded and smiled: "Dad, don't worry!"
"From now on, I'll listen to you in everything, and I won't make you angry anymore!"
"Ah, this is my good son!"
Bang Geng personally calling Yi Zhonghai "Dad" truly made Yi Zhonghai beam with joy.
After all, Yi Zhonghai, a lonely old man, had never enjoyed such "treatment" for so many years.
It was a pity that Bang Geng's surname was Jia, if it were Yi, it would be perfect!
Thus, Bang Geng and Yi Zhonghai "shook hands and made peace," and the father and son returned home chatting and laughing.
Their harmonious interaction and happy return home stunned the neighbors in the courtyard who were waiting to watch the show.
Everyone was waiting for Yi Zhonghai and Bang Geng to have a fight to the death.
Who would have thought that it would turn out like this?
Especially when Bang Geng publicly called Yi Zhonghai "Dad," it directly detonated the public opinion circle of the courtyard.
The public opinion in the courtyard immediately became heated.
"Good heavens, this kid Bang Geng is truly an ungrateful wretch!"
"Yes, this kid actually recognized a thief as his father!"
"A while ago, I still said this kid had some backbone, and I even thought about helping him!"
"Now it seems... I was really wrong, this kid is a spineless coward!"
"Who says not, I really didn't expect Bang Geng to be such trash who recognized a thief as his father!"
"Alas... Jia Dongxu died too unjustly!"
"If Jia Dongxu knew that his son recognized a thief as his father, he probably wouldn't be able to rest in peace in the other world, right?"
"Alas, this is truly a sin!"
"Okay, okay, are the Jia family really worth our sympathy?"
"If you ask me, none of the Jia family are good people!"
"They and Yi Zhonghai are simply birds of a feather, two peas in a pod!"
"Exactly, they are birds of a feather. Since Yi Zhonghai could bribe Qin Huairu with money, what's so strange about bribing Bang Geng?"
"Now, Jia Dongxu is dead, and his wife and children are all someone else's!"
"The Jia family is completely finished!"
"Speaking of which, will there still be a Jia family in our courtyard in the future?"
"Why not, isn't there still Jia Zhangshi?"
"Jia Zhangshi is also a married woman. Now that the Jia family is scattered, can an old woman like her hold things together?"
"That's hard to say, at least the Jia family's house is still there!"
"And counting the time, Jia Zhangshi's prison sentence is almost halfway through, and she'll be out soon."
"When that time comes, it will probably be another bloody storm!"
...
Zhao Feiyan had been helping to "control" the public opinion in the courtyard.
In fact, Zhao Feiyan originally didn't like to join in the fun.
But since giving birth, she had gradually become gossipy.
A major reason was: this was how public opinion worked, everyone liked to discuss people who were "not present."
If Zhao Feiyan didn't join the discussion, she would become the subject of discussion for others.
If she joined in, no one would discuss her, and everyone would discuss others together.
Zhao Feiyan's frequent appearance in the public opinion sphere was mainly because she was worried that if she wasn't there, others would talk about Liu Kai Xuan behind his back.
With more discussion, the problems she faced would naturally increase.
"By the way, husband, Aunt Pang and the others saw with their own eyes tonight that Bang Geng called Yi Zhonghai 'Dad'!"
"What do you think of this? Just a few days ago, they were beating each other black and blue?"
Liu Kai Xuan shook his head and smiled: "I can't quite figure out the inside story myself!"
"But I have a premonition that something big is about to happen in our courtyard soon!"
"Ah, something big?" Zhao Feiyan asked curiously, "What big thing will happen?"
Liu Kai Xuan said solemnly: "It will be a world-shattering event!"
