Siheyuan: A domineering life

These days, the house is very lively.

People come to my house every day, and they all come to discuss going out for fun.

Yang Jun was too lazy to get involved in this kind of thing, so he hid out after eating.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the children are also going on vacation. The family is almost ready, and we are just waiting for the children to go on vacation.

Yang Jun was lying in the glass room basking in the sun when the guard came to report that Yang Tang was here.

When Yang Jun heard this, he quickly asked the guard to invite him in.

"Secret, make another pot of tea."

Yang Jun ordered: "Oh, go tell the kitchen and get some food to go with the wine."

After Sun Zhaocai took the order and left, Yang Jun left the glass room and stood there waiting for Yang Tang's arrival.

Every year when the Chinese New Year is approaching, Yang Tang always comes to visit, and every time he comes he brings some specialties from his hometown.

"Great leader!"

From a distance, Yang Tang began to greet Yang Jun.

"Coming."

Yang Jun smiled and took two steps to greet him.

She took the large and small bags in his hand, then put her arm around his shoulders and walked towards the glass room.

"You're freezing, come in and warm yourself up."

"It's not cold. I ran straight here as soon as I got off the train."

Yang Tang said while rubbing his hands to breathe in the heat.

"Not to mention, the weather in Yanjing is really cold, much colder than in my hometown."

"Yeah, it's dry and cold here, and my bones hurt from the cold."

Yang Jun put the luggage bag aside, and then took Yang Tang to sit by the stove to warm himself.

Yang Jun used tongs to stoke the fire a little brighter, and then threw a roasted sweet potato to Yang Tang.

"Take a bite first to warm yourself up."

"Well, this is good, I just like this bite."

Yang Tang happily took the sweet potato and ate it without peeling it.

He is a person who has lived through that era and has experienced starvation, so he knows how precious food is.

Yang Jun didn't say anything. This is a beautiful memory belonging to their generation.

"Why didn't my wife and children come together?" Yang Jun asked.

"Hey, it's hard to buy tickets. It's impossible to buy tickets at all. I bought this ticket in the name of a business trip."

After saying that, Yang Tang smiled and said: "Looking back, you have to buy a return ticket for me."

"Those are all small things. Just play here in a down-to-earth manner these two days. Don't worry about other things."

"I can't play for two days. I will go back tomorrow. There are many things waiting for me to deal with when the unit comes."

When Yang Jun heard this, he said with a straight face: "This is the same excuse every time I come here. Can you try something new?"

"Hey, I'm very busy, just telling the truth."

"Is it possible that you are busier than me, a big leader?"

"That...that's not true. I don't want to go back early to finish the work at hand, and then have a peaceful New Year."

After hearing this, Yang Jun's expression softened a lot.

"Oh, by the way, speaking of fun, do you want to celebrate the Chinese New Year with me this year? I plan to take my family out to sea for fun."

"I...I won't go. You take your family out for fun, and I won't get involved."

"What are you talking about? You are also my family. When did I treat you as an outsider?"

"Yes, yes, I know that the big boss has never treated me as an outsider, but... as a human being, you also need to have a sense of boundaries. I can't waste your trust in me just because of this."

Yang Tang shook his head and said: "This is not in line with the principles of my life."

When Yang Jun heard this, he laughed.

My father, Yang Tang, is such a person. He takes on everything by himself and never causes trouble for others. Once he causes trouble for others, he will always have a troubled conscience.

Yang Jun knew that he couldn't change him, so he could only acquiesce.

"Okay, it doesn't matter if you don't go, it won't be awkward for you to be with me anyway."

At this time, the nanny brought the food and wine.

Sun Zhaocai and the other two arranged the food and drinks and then exited the glass room.

"Let's have a drink first to warm ourselves up." Yang Jun raised his glass.

"Okay, I respect you."

Yang Tang held the cup with both hands, and the two of them drank it in one gulp.

Yang Tang has always treated Yang Jun as a great leader and treated him with great respect. Over the years, he has always adhered to his duties and never done anything beyond his reach.

"Is work going well?"

Putting down his wine glass, Yang Jun asked.

“Very smooth.”

When Yang Tang heard this, he quickly put down his wine glass and reported on the work together in a serious manner.

"Since you introduced investors to invest in my hometown, the economy has been developing rapidly. At present, all aspects have made great progress. The whole city is glowing with prosperity and the future is bright."

Yang Jun held the wine glass and looked at him with a smile, looking at the confident look on his face.

"You talk in different ways now, which is very different from you before."

"Boss, I didn't falsely report my results. What I said are all facts. If you don't believe it, you can send someone to investigate." Yang Tang panicked after hearing this.

"Okay, okay, I don't mean to blame you."

Yang Jun smiled and said: "Seeing that you have matured politically, I am happy for you. Do you understand that I am happy?"

"I understand, all of this relies on the cultivation of the great leaders. Without your strong support, I would not be able to achieve results." Yang Tang said modestly.

"Good job."

Yang Jun patted him on the shoulder: "When you get results, I will transfer you to Yanjing."

After hearing this, Yang Tang was not only unhappy, but also had a trace of sadness on his face.

From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to leave his hometown. On the one hand, he had a reason to stay, and on the other hand, he deeply loved his hometown.

"Big boss, I want to report to you about my family situation."

Yang Tang looked gloomy and felt a little depressed.

"Well, you say."

When Yang Jun heard that he was going to talk about family matters, he put down his chopsticks and listened carefully.

He also wanted to know what happened at home, after all, it was his home too.

"Why!"

Yang Tang sighed, then lowered his head and said: "A few days ago, my father was diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver. The doctor said that his days are numbered, so he asked me to stay with him as much as possible during this time."

When Yang Jun heard this, he was stunned for a moment.

Immediately, his memories returned to his previous life.

In his previous life, his grandfather did pass away due to cirrhosis of the liver this year, but he was only three or four years old at that time, and his impression of his grandfather was not that deep. In addition, his grandfather died early, and he did not have such a deep impression of his grandfather.

feelings, so he was not as excited as he showed when they met each other in this life.

He acted very calmly about his grandfather's illness.

Everyone will grow old one day. As an adult, he has long been prepared for this, so he doesn't seem to have much emotional fluctuations.

"Whatever you need me to do, if you need doctors, experts or anything, just ask." Yang Jun comforted.

"Oh, thank you very much, Mr. Leader."

Yang Tang raised his sleeves and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and continued: "We don't need any experts now. My father has only a few days left, and I don't want him to suffer that pain again, so let's leave it like this."

Yang Jun: "As I said before, if you need anything, just ask, no matter what."

"Thank you, great leader."

Then, Yang Tang started talking about his family affairs again.

"Since my eldest brother died, my sister-in-law has been clamoring to remarry. As you know, I can't let her remarry with two children, otherwise my brother's bloodline will be cut off."

Listening to Yang Tang's narration, Yang Jun's thoughts returned to his previous life.

In his memory, his father seemed to have been hanging around his eldest aunt. Whenever the eldest aunt was in need of something at home, his father would always send it to her immediately, so that she could stay and take care of her two children.

Leave it to my aunt's bloodline.

In his memory, he had a particularly bad impression of his eldest aunt, and he even hated her a little. He hated her for taking away what belonged to him. He remembered that one year during the Chinese New Year, his father bought a five-pound carp to keep for the New Year.

Food, but was accidentally eaten by my aunt

After seeing this, the eldest aunt asked his cousins ​​to go to his father and cry in front of him, crying about how hard the life was and how he couldn't go on. Later, his father had no choice but to ask him and his brother to carry him.

Take the fish to your eldest aunt.

He clearly remembered the scene of delivering fish to his aunt that day. At that time, he was only four years old and his younger brother was three years old. The two three- and four-year-old children were carrying a five-pound big carp on their immature shoulders, which made them tired.

, he clearly remembered that the fish was so big that its tail was dragging on the ground. At that time, he accidentally stepped on the fish's tail and fell several times, breaking his leg.

My father did a lot for my aunt, but on the first day of the new year, my aunt still left with my cousin.

My father went crazy at that time and searched everywhere for my aunt, but couldn't find her.

Later, my father often felt guilty because of this incident, blaming himself for failing to leave a bloodline for his uncle, so that he could not let go of this guilt for the rest of his life.

"After the New Year, I'm thinking of building her three more big tile-roofed houses, and then finding her a stable job in the town..."

Listening to Yang Tang talking about his plans, Yang Jun couldn't bear to expose this illusion.

"it's useless."

Yang Jun finally couldn't help it and interrupted him.

Looking at Yang Tang's astonished eyes, Yang Jun explained: "You haven't done any of this. You don't even know what a woman needs?"

"Yes, you can only give her material help, but she is empty inside, and she is so young...you can't keep her."

Yang Tang shook his head and said: "I also know that this is not the solution to the problem, but there is only so much I can do. I can't just watch my eldest brother's bloodline be cut off."

When Yang Jun heard this, he smiled bitterly.

My father is such a person. No matter what happens, he feels that it is his responsibility. It is because he did not do better, so he often blames himself.

"it's useless."

Yang Jun interrupted him again.

He is a time traveler, so he naturally knows what the final outcome will be.

At that time, the eldest aunt was not treated badly, and the living standard of her family was among the best in the village. Even so, in the end she resolutely left home without her child.

The eldest aunt is too young. Because she is young, she is not satisfied with the status quo. She does not want to be tied to this family for the rest of her life at such a young age.

Leaving is inevitable.

"Great leader."

Yang Tang said seriously: "Maybe you are right, but I will not give up until the end. I... can only do what I should do."

"Whatever you want."

Yang Jun listened and did not force himself.

He knew his father's character too well. His father was the kind of person who didn't know how to look back even after hitting a wall. It was impossible for him to give up.

"No matter what choice you make, I will transfer you to Yanjing in two years."

Yang Jun said in a non-negotiable tone.

Two years later, my grandfather had passed away and my eldest aunt had remarried. By then, my father would be free from worries and could come to work in Yanjing with peace of mind.

"Big leader..."

Yang Tang wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Yang Jun raising his hand.

"Okay, there's no need to discuss this matter, it's settled."

When Yang Tang heard this, he opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say anything.

Afterwards, the two of them continued drinking.

We talked about things at work and things at home, and the one we talked about the most was little Yang Jun. The little guy is now in kindergarten. He is just like Yang Jun remembered, naive, silly, and authentically rural.

The baby's appearance, he remembered that rural children all looked like that.

When they talked about Xiao Yang Jun, the two of them had endless topics to talk about.

Yang Tang was drunk, so Yang Jun asked someone to help him to the guest room in the front yard to rest.

Today, I had a very pleasant chat with my father. He drank two more drinks and was a little drunk.

Afterwards, I tidied up and went back to the backyard.

"Husband, hold on and drink the hangover soup."

Nini knelt on the bed and struggled to help Yang Jun up. She held his neck with one hand and fed him hangover soup with the other.

"Well, I'm drunk and I really can't drink anymore."

Yang Jun had a headache and really didn't want to drink.

"You must drink, otherwise you will have a headache again tomorrow morning."

Nini handed the bowl to his mouth again.

Yang Jun was so drunk that he didn't even bother to open his mouth.

He also knew in his heart that drinking hangover soup was good, but he just couldn't open his mouth.

At this time, Yi Qiushui came.

Seeing Yang Jun's drunken look, and then seeing Nini coaxing Yang Jun to drink sober soup like a child, I was so angry that I wanted to laugh.

"How can you feed me hangover soup like this? Is it strange that he can drink it?"

"Then... what should I do? He... is so drunk that he can't drink anymore."

Nini looked at her with a wry smile.

Yi Qiushui sighed after hearing this.

Then, he shook his head and said helplessly,

"If he doesn't drink, can't you feed him?"

"I fed him, what can I do if he doesn't drink?"

After saying that, Nini handed the bowl to Yang Jun's mouth again, but Yang Jun still didn't open his mouth.

"Oh, you silly girl."

Yi Qiushui rolled her eyes at her, as if she hated iron.

"Sister, don't you understand what I say?"

"I said hey, hey... do you understand?"

"It's the mouth-to-mouth kind."

"Ah?" Nini's face turned red when she heard this.

"Sister Qiushui, I...I..."

Looking at Nini's appearance, Yi Qiushui hated iron.

"Get out of the way, I'll do it."

After taking the sobering soup from Nini's hand, she was about to start feeding her.

"Look clearly, learn a little bit, you will need it later."

After saying that, he started to demonstrate.
