Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

"Big brother."

"Third uncle!"

"uncle!"

"Aunt Cheng, Xiaojun, Lili, Xiaoli, Lanlan, Hengheng, please come in and sit down."

Yang Yukun was drinking tea and reading in the study when he heard someone calling him in the yard. It was Fan Xiaojun's family.

"Brother, are you home alone?" Fan Xiaojun carried the things into the house.

"Jingping went to the company, Xiao Zongzi and Pingping, Xiao Yumi went to school, so I am the only one at home."

Yang Yukun asked everyone to sit down, poured tea for them, and took Fan Yongheng from Cheng Xueru and teased him.

Cheng Xueru asked, "Xiao Kun, where are your father-in-law and mother-in-law?"

"I went on a self-driving tour."

"Traveling again?"

"I've been out for several days. I'm in Liaohe Province now."

After my father-in-law and mother-in-law came back from Guangzhou, they stayed at home for two days and then started their self-driving tour to Xia Country.

On this self-driving tour, my father-in-law and mother-in-law went to Northeast China and are currently in Liaohe Province in Northeast China.

After staying in Liaohe Province for a while, my father-in-law and mother-in-law will enter Baishansongshui from Liaohe Province, then go to Heilongjiang Province, and then go to Inner Mongolia from Heilongjiang.

"Hey, they are both really cool."

Cheng Xueru thought Xu Huizhen and Cai Quanwu were still at home. They had just returned from their eldest son and daughter-in-law's home in Yangcheng today, and were thinking of coming to Xu Huizhen to chat.

I didn't expect that Xu Huizhen and Cai Quanwu would go out for a road trip again.

"Aunt Cheng, you can also go on a self-driving tour, just like my father-in-law and mother-in-law said, while you are still strong, go around and see a lot."

"I can't be as cool as them. I'd better stay at home."

Cheng Xueru also wanted to go out for a walk and have a look, but it was meaningless for her to go on a road trip alone.

She is so old that her son and daughter-in-law are worried about letting her go out alone. If something unexpected happens, there will be no one to take care of her.

She fought with Xu Huizhen for decades, but in old age, Xu Huizhen lived a more carefree life than her.

It seems that in this contest, she was indeed half a step behind.

"Brother, I'll take Xiaoli and Lanlan to school first."

"Come over for dinner later."

"it is good."

School has started.

But Fan Xiaojun and his family just returned from Yangcheng today.

After staying for a while, Fan Xiaojun and others said goodbye and left, first sending their nephew Hou Li and daughter Fan Yonglan to school.

For dinner, Yang Yukun prepared some side dishes and had a few drinks with Fan Xiaojun.

………………

Summer vacation is coming.

Xu Jingping went to Yangcheng on a business trip, and took Xiao Zongzi, Pingping and Xiao Yumi to her elder sister and brother-in-law's house in Yangcheng.

Yang Yukun did not go with them. Xu Jingping would not stay in Yangcheng for many days and would be back in two days.

This afternoon.

Yang Yukun drove to the main store of Zhiweilou hotpot chain, and Mao Ditu invited them to eat hotpot.

"Brother Jian, Brother Tu." Seeing Yang Huajian and Mao Tu squatting at the door, "Why are you squatting here? It's not hot, it's so comfortable inside with the air conditioning."

Mao Tutu said, "Waiting for you and Chunming."

"Brother Xiaowu hasn't come yet?"

"Nope."

Yang Huajian said, "Tudi, give Chunming another call and ask him when he will come."

"Okay." Mao Ditu called Han Chunming and said, "We are on the way. They said we will be there in fifteen minutes at most."

"Let's go inside and wait for Brother Xiaowu." Yang Yukun, Yang Huajian and Mao Ditu walked into the store and waited for Han Chunming in the rest area.

Zhiweilou Hotpot’s business is very good. It’s only 4:30 in the afternoon and there are only a few empty tables left in the restaurant.

When it was time for dinner, there was no empty seat and if you wanted to eat you had to wait in line.

Since the opening of Zhiweilou Hotpot, business has been very popular, and many hotpot restaurants have opened in the city.

However, the business of these hotpot restaurants is not as good as Zhiweilou Hotpot, and many of them closed down after a while due to poor business.

The reason why Zhiweilou Hotpot Restaurant’s business is so good is, firstly, because of the Zhiweilou brand, and secondly, because of factors such as the ingredients.

The Zhiweilou Restaurant is a unique restaurant in the imperial capital. The food is more authentic than that of the Imperial Capital Hotel and Diaoyutai State Guesthouse. Eating at Zhiweilou is deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Zhiweilou Hotpot Chain is also a chain restaurant brand under Zhiweilou Catering Company, and it uses the Zhiweilou sign. Like Zhiweilou Restaurant, most of the ingredients used are from the farms, ranches, and fisheries of Zhiwei Agricultural Development Company, so the ingredients are authentic and fresh.

In addition, the Zhiweilou Hotpot chain is far ahead of other hotpot restaurants in terms of taste and service, so other hotpot restaurants naturally pose no threat to the Zhiweilou Hotpot chain.

"Brother Xiaowu is here." Yang Yukun saw Han Chunming walking in from outside.

"Xiao Kun, Lao Yang, map." Han Chunming also saw Yang Yukun and the other two.

Mao Tutu said, "Chunming, you finally came. I haven't even had lunch yet. If you hadn't come, I would have starved to death."

"Who told you not to eat lunch?"

"I had breakfast late, so I wasn't hungry at all at noon."

"Did you sleep in this morning?"

"You didn't get up until about nine o'clock. Let's sit here."

"You can sit anywhere."

"Tripe, duck intestines, mutton, beef with skin..., give us a beef oil base and a sour soup base, slightly spicy, and two bottles of Eight Immortals Drunk."

Han Chunming said: "Give us a jug of freshly squeezed pomegranate juice. If you are thirsty, have a jug to quench your thirst."

Mao Ditu said, "Xiao Kun, Lao Yang, do you want to order anything else?"

Yang Yukun said, "Eat first, and order more if it's not enough."

"Okay, that's all for now."

The waiter said, "Okay, please wait."

After a while, the soup bases, drinks and beverages ordered by the few people arrived first, and various ingredients were also brought to the table one after another.

First, drink a cup of freshly squeezed pomegranate juice to quench your thirst, then bring the pot to a boil and add the ingredients to cook.

"Come, drink."

"Oh, Chunming, the map. Don't forget the educated youth gathering tomorrow. It's still the place where we gathered back then, Fengzeyuan Restaurant."

"If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten. Can I bring my family members?"

"can."

"Is Cheng Jianjun's grandson going?"

"Tell him, he'll go."

"Don't forget to prepare a piano for your buddies at the party."

Yang Huajian said with a smile, "Are you planning to take advantage of the educated youth gathering tomorrow to avenge your past?"

"He slapped me in front of so many people. I will always remember this slap."

At a gathering of educated youth in 1977, Cheng Jianjun embarrassed him in front of so many people and forced him to bow his head and call him "master".

Han Chunming is not a person who holds grudges, but he has always kept this incident in mind.

To this end, he specially found a piano master to teach him how to play the piano. Sooner or later, at the right time, he would slap Cheng Jianjun back in the face.

Seventeen years have passed, and his piano skills have now reached a professional level, so he can easily perform on the stage of a concert hall.

Mao Tutu said: "No..., can you play the piano?"

"Yes, can you play the piano?" Yang Huajian also remembered that Han Chunming could not play the piano.

Seventeen years ago, at a gathering of educated youth, Cheng Jianjun played the song "An Evening on the Outskirts of Wuhai Port" in front of everyone, which made Han Chunming bow his head and call him "Grandpa".

Because Han Chunming couldn't play the piano, he had no choice but to call Cheng Jianjun "Master" in front of dozens of educated youth, which was a complete loss of face.

Han Chunming smiled and said, "Xiao Kun, tell them if I can play the piano."

"meeting."

"Really?"

"I'm going, is it true?"

"Yes, after the gathering of educated youths, Xiaowu found a piano master to learn piano. The teacher Xiaowu found was named Wu, and the piano accompaniment of "Butterfly Lovers" was composed by her."

"Unfortunately, I only studied with my teacher for five years. In 1983, my teacher went to Milton Keynes for further studies and now lives in Temasek."

Han Chunming did not tell anyone else about learning piano except Yang Yukun, and even Su Meng doesn't know about it now.

There will be a gathering of educated youth tomorrow, and the opportunity he has been waiting for has finally come.

It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Let’s see how he slaps Cheng Jianjun in the face tomorrow.

Just as he called this guy "Master" in the past, this guy should call him "Master" back.

Yang Huajian said, "Chunming, you hid it really well. We have been friends for so many years, and we didn't know you were still hiding this trick."

"There will be something interesting to watch tomorrow." Mao Ditu was looking forward to the scene where Han Chunming would slap Cheng Jianjun in the face tomorrow. Just thinking about it made him feel very excited.

"Brother Xiaowu, Brother Jian, Brother Tu, can I go to your educated youth gathering to join in the fun?"

Tomorrow, Han Chunming and his group of educated youth will have a very interesting gathering. Yang Yukun also wants to join in the fun and be a spectator. (End of this chapter)
