Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

Peng Tao and Fan Xiaojun left one after another, picking a basket of dates to take with them.

They were asked to stay for dinner. Peng Tao was going back to Fangshan, while Fan Xiaojun and Zhao Lili were going to Zhiweilou Hotpot Restaurant to eat Guizhou-style sour soup hotpot.

After the two left, Yang Yukun continued to prepare today's meal.

Just after five in the afternoon, Xu Jingping came back from the Children's Palace with Xiao Zongzi, Pingping and Xiao Yumi, and Yang Yukun had just finished preparing dinner.

"Dad, we are back."

"smell good."

"Go wash your hands and get ready for dinner."

"okay."

"Girl, your dad wasn't home when you celebrated your birthday before, so I made it up to you today. This is the birthday cake your dad made for you. I wish our little Zongzi will always be happy."

Yang Yukun brought the fruit cake he made by himself to the table. He made it specially for Xiao Zongzi.

"Thank you dad!"

"Eat first, and the cake later."

"whee……."

"Eat a goose leg, Xiao Yumi also eats one, Pingping eats a duck leg, this duck leg is for mom, and I'll eat the chicken leg."

"Hehe...Cheers, Dad."

"Okay, cheers."

Yang Yukun picked up the wine bowl and clinked glasses with the girl Xiao Zongzi.

"By the way, wife, where are my parents now?"

"I called him two days ago and he said he was in Shanghai. I don't know if he is still in Shanghai now."

Two days ago, Xu Jingping received a call from his parents, who said they were at his second sister's house in Shanghai.

Next, my parents plan to go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, then from Jiangsu and Zhejiang to Fujian Province, and then from Fujian to Guangdong Province.

The destination of my parents' self-driving tour this time is Qiongzhou Island.

After completing this self-driving tour, Mom and Dad will rush back to prepare for Jingtian’s wedding.

As for whether his parents were still in Shanghai, Xu Jingping had no idea as he hadn't called them for two days.

"Hey, are you eating?"

"Brother Xiaowu, come and have dinner."

"uncle!"

"Hey."

"Uncle, please sit here. I'll get you some dishes and chopsticks." Little Zongzi ran to the kitchen and took a set of dishes and chopsticks from the cupboard: "Uncle, here you go."

"Thank you." Han Chunming said, "What day is today? Why is it so sumptuous? There's even a birthday cake. Is it Xiao Zongzi's birthday today?"

Little Zongzi said: "Uncle, my birthday has already passed, so Daddy is going to make it up for me."

Yang Yukun smiled and said, "I was on Qiongzhou Island on Xiao Zongzi's birthday, so I'll make it up to this girl today."

"I remember that Xiao Zongzi's birthday was on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, the Dragon Boat Festival. I thought I remembered it wrong."

"Uncle, if you remember correctly, you also gave me a red envelope."

"I said I'm not suffering from Alzheimer's disease yet." Han Chunming said, "The time for the Red Official Kiln Porcelain Exhibition has been set. It will be on the 20th of this month. We will start to set up the exhibition hall and contact the media for publicity tomorrow."

"We at the Kunping Museum will fully cooperate. If you have any questions, just talk to Lao Li."

This morning, Yang Yukun called Li Wende and asked him to fully cooperate with Han Chunming to organize this red official kiln porcelain exhibition.

The Kunping Museum, Yaguan Museum and Yaxuan Museum are all related, so Li Wende and others should follow Han Chunming's arrangements.

"I know you're afraid of trouble, but you have to show up on the day the event starts. The leaders of the relevant departments will be there."

"Okay, I'll definitely be there then."

"drink wine."

"Walk."

"Dad, I'm full, can I have some cake now?"

"Cut it."

"okay."

Xiao Zongzi cut the cake and gave some to his parents, uncle, brother and sister first, and then cut a piece for himself.

“Ding ding ding ding ding….

"Uncle, your phone is ringing."

"Hey, I'm eating at Xiaokun's house, you guys can eat." Han Chunming said, "Mengmeng called and asked me when I would be home."

"Brother, fill it up for you."

Yang Yukun filled Han Chunming's glass with wine, and the two brothers continued to drink.

After dinner, tasks such as washing dishes and wiping the table were left to Xiao Zongzi, Pingping and Xiao Yumi.

Now the housework at home is basically done by the three siblings. It is necessary to cultivate their ability to live independently and not let them become lazy and ignorant young ladies and young masters.

"I'll leave first and go see the old man." Carrying the packed roast chicken, roast duck and roast goose, Han Chunming went to his master's courtyard.

"Wife, let's go for a ride."

Yang Yukun patted the back seat of the bicycle and took Xu Jingping out for a ride.

Xiao Zongzi stayed at home to continue practicing, while Pingping and Xiao Yumi went to play with Feifei and Mengmeng. In the evening, the temperature dropped, and many people went out for a walk after dinner.

Yang Yukun took Xu Jingping on a bicycle to Beihai Park for a stroll, and they returned home leisurely when it was almost dark.

…………

"It smells so good, can I eat it now?"

"It's still early. It will take at least another hour before we can eat."

"Brother Jian, Brother Tu, Lao Ao, if you are really hungry, eat some fruit first."

"What's so delicious about fruit? I need to save some room for roasted whole lamb."

"What's going on with Chunming? Why hasn't he come yet?"

"I'm busy, Brother Jian. I'll leave it to you. Turn it slowly so it doesn't get burnt. Brush it with oil after ten minutes."

Yang Yukun handed the roasted whole lamb to Yang Huajian while he went to prepare other dishes.

Ao Feng flew over from Hong Kong Island today, and Yang Yukun prepared a whole roasted lamb to treat him.

"My buddy is here." After Han Chunming finished his work, he went straight to Yang Yukun's house: "Lao Ao, long time no see. You came here alone, why didn't you bring Xiao Wei with you?"

"His mom took him to his grandparents' house." Ao Feng said, "Boss Han, what are you busy with? You don't even have time to have lunch with me."

"The museum is preparing for an exhibition." Han Chunming was busy with the exhibition of red official kiln porcelain.

When Ao Feng called him, he was meeting with leaders of relevant departments and directors of other public museums in the imperial capital, and he really couldn't leave.

"Old Yang, get out of the way. You burnt this piece." Han Chunming drove Yang Huajian away and took over the job of roasting the whole lamb.

"Okay, come on, it's so hot, I'm going to go inside and turn on the air conditioner."

It was such a hot day, and Yang Huajian was already sweating profusely after just a few minutes of grilling a whole lamb.

After handing the roasted whole lamb to Han Chunming, Yang Huajian went straight into the living room of the main house to enjoy the air conditioning and eat chilled watermelon.

"Brother Xiaowu, Brother Jian, Brother Tu, call Sister Su Meng and the others and ask them to bring the little ones over for dinner later."

Yang Yukun asked Han Chunming and others to call Su Meng and others to come for dinner. He also greeted his master and Fan Xiaojun and others.

"Row."

"Woof woof woof..."

"Hey, Black Panther."

"It smells so good, roasted whole lamb, Brother Xiaowu, Brother Tu."

"Hey, Xiao Xia and Xiao Rui, you're back."

"Third brother-in-law." He Xiaoxia said with a smile: "Haha..., it's better to come at the right time than to come early. I'm in for a treat tonight."

"Brother Xiaowu is smoking..." Ming Jirui took out some cigarettes and wanted to give them to Han Chunming and others.

"Xiao Xia, Xiao Rui." Yang Huajian lifted the door curtain and came out of the main living room.

"Brother Jian."

"This is Ao Feng, just call him Lao Ao."

"You are so arrogant."

"Hello."

"Brother-in-law, where are my third sister, Xiao Zongzi, Pingping, and Xiao Yumi?"

"Xiao Zongzi and the others went to the Children's Palace, and your third sister went to the company to do something." Yang Yukun said, "I just called Lixia but couldn't get through. Please call her and ask her and Qingming to come over for dinner."

"My fourth sister is out of town on a business trip. I'll call my fourth brother-in-law."

"Where did you go on business?"

"The second five-star hotel of February Flower Hotel is planned to be built in Daocheng, Qilu Province."

The fourth sister He Lixia is not only the vice chairman of Huafeng Group, but also the general manager of Huafeng Hotel Company.

Under the Huafeng Hotel Group, there are two hotel brands: Sanqiuye Hotel and February Flower Hotel.

The main branch of February Flower Hotel is in the imperial capital, and the second branch is planned to be located in an island city in Qilu Province.

My fourth sister went to the island city for inspection and is not in the imperial capital at the moment.

Xu Jingtian called his fourth brother-in-law and asked him to come to his third brother-in-law's house for dinner after get off work.

"Woof woof woof..."

The black panther, who was enjoying the cool under the crabapple tree, looked up towards the gate, then turned over and ran towards the gate.

"Black Panther!"

Little Zongzi, Pingping and Little Yumi were very surprised to see the black panther running out of the house to greet them.

Fifth Aunt took Black Panther to youngest Aunt's house. I hadn't seen Black Panther for the past two days and I always felt like something was missing.

"Mom, Black Panther is back."

Xu Jingping said: "Your fifth aunt and fifth uncle should be back as well."

"It smells so good, what delicious food is Dad making?"

"Go Black Panther, let's go inside."

Little Zongzi rubbed the black panther’s head and ran into the house first.

Xu Jingping took the things from the car and carried them into the yard. (End of this chapter)
