Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

Chapter 417: A Trip to Shanghai
When Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping returned to the tavern, the father-in-law and mother-in-law were still having dinner.

The master is here too.

I came here for a walk when I was bored at home, and when it was time for dinner, we stayed at the tavern to eat together.

"Xiao Yang and Xiao Zao are getting married. Is it true?"

Xu Huizhen was a little surprised when her second daughter and second son-in-law said that Yang Huajian and Meng Xiaozao had already set a wedding date.

If she remembered correctly, Yang Huajian and Meng Xiaozao had not been in a relationship for a long time, so they were talking about getting married?

"On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, Brother Jian and Xiao Zao said they could just do it briefly, but Brother Xiao Wu and the others didn't agree. They had to do it lively."

Xu Jingping smiled and told his parents about the upcoming marriage of Yang Huajian and Meng Xiaozao.

"Marriage is a big event, and if conditions permit, it must be a lively one."

"That's what we said, so we changed the wedding plans of Brother Jian and Xiao Zao."

"On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, your father and I may not be able to come back. You two should hurry back then."

It was the 28th of the twelfth lunar month. At that time, the eldest daughter was probably just out of confinement.

Moreover, the Chinese New Year was only two days away at that time, and Xu Huizhen and Cai Quan had no plans to stay in Yangcheng to celebrate the New Year with their eldest daughter, son-in-law, and grandson.

The eldest daughter and son-in-law are far away in Yangcheng and cannot see each other a few times a year.

After finally going to Yangcheng once, I naturally want to stay in Yangcheng for a while.

According to their plan, they will probably stay in Yangcheng until after the Lantern Festival on the 15th of the first lunar month before returning.

We have to leave for Shanghai early tomorrow morning, so we need to rest early.

After staying at the tavern until 08:30 in the evening, Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping went home respectively.

As for the master, he left after dinner, saying he was going to have tea with Uncle Guan, Mr. Niu, and Mr. Pian'er.

"boom……."

"I'll go, who is throwing things around, do you have any sense of ethics? I almost hit my buddy."

As soon as Yang Yukun walked into the courtyard, a bowl of broccoli was thrown towards him.

Fortunately, he had been practicing martial arts since childhood and had quick reactions, otherwise this dish would have hit him in the face.

"Xiao Kun."

"It's so lively, Sister Su Meng, have you eaten?"

"Eat early."

"Did our Chief Cheng and Manager Tan quarrel again?"

"We just took action."

"Didn't you say we stopped arguing? Why did we start arguing again?"

"Who knows, if you come back 10 minutes early, you can watch a free show."

"I missed it again?"

In the late evening and on a very cold day, many people gathered in the courtyard to watch the show.

I learned from Su Meng that it turned out that Cheng Jianjun and Tan Xiaorong had quarreled again and even started fighting.

The broccoli bowl that almost hit him just now was thrown by Tan Xiaorong from the house.

Many pots and pans were smashed in the yard, making it a mess.

If you're going to quarrel, just quarrel. What's the point of using pots and pans to vent your anger? If you smash them, you don't have to pay to buy them.

"I really don't know what's the point of continuing to live like this. It's better to be single."

Han Chunming walked out of the room.

Think about it, when Cheng Jianjun and Tan Xiaorong first got married, many people in the alley said that they were a good match and that Cheng Jianjun had found a capable and good wife.

At that time, many people made fun of him, saying that he and Cheng Jianjun had grown up together, and that Cheng Jianjun was married but he was single.

Look at the life Cheng Jianjun and Tan Xiaorong are living now. They have a small quarrel for three days and a big quarrel for five days. What's the point of living like this? It's better to divorce as soon as possible and live their own lives.

Su Meng said: "Chunming, are you busy tomorrow?" "Yes, I have to take Xiaokun and the others to the airport tomorrow morning. What's wrong?"

"I want to take my dad to the hospital for a review tomorrow. I want you to find a car to take us to the hospital. If you don't have time, forget it."

"I'll be back after you send Xiaokun and the others to the airport, probably around ten o'clock. Then I'll take you and Teacher Su to the hospital for a review."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you at home."

"it is good."

There was no more excitement to watch, so the neighbors who were watching the excitement went back home. Yang Yukun, Han Chunming, and Su Meng chatted for a while, and then each went into their own house.

After returning home, Yang Yukun plunged into the portable planting space as usual.

At around 40:[-] the next morning, the plane took off from the Imperial Capital Airport.

After more than two hours of flight, the plane landed in Shanghai at around 50:[-] noon.

…………

It has been three days since I came to Shanghai.

In the past three days, Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping were not idle. They basically walked around outside, visited all the scenic spots and alleys in Shanghai, and took many photos as a souvenir.

"Daughter-in-law, believe it or not, in a few years, the opposite side will become extremely prosperous. It will become the most prosperous place in Shanghai and the new city center of Shanghai."

"Hehe...I believe it."

"Daughter-in-law, what do you think we buy a large piece of land across the street?"

"Xiao Kun, are you sure the other side can develop in the future?"

"You still don't believe my vision. Our country will definitely become stronger and more prosperous day by day, and Shanghai City's next development space and growth point must be on the other side."

In the winter of December, Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping stood by the Huangpu River and blew in the wind.

Their current location is in Puxi, and on the other side is Pudong.

At this time, Pudong was far less prosperous than it would be a few decades later.

I would rather have a bed in Puxi than a house in Pudong. This is the true portrayal of Pudong and Puxi in this era.

Pudong was officially developed in the 90s. If you buy a large piece of land on the other side of the river before Pudong is developed, if nothing else, you can lose a lot of money just by expropriating it during Pudong development.

"Xiao Kun, are you so confident in your opponent?"

"I don't have confidence in the other side, I have confidence in our country."

"Then it's up to you. Let's go to the other side and buy a piece of land."

Since Yang Yukun was so confident that the opposite side could develop, Xu Jingping decided to listen to his suggestion and buy a piece of land opposite.

In the suburbs of Jinmen, they also bought a piece of land before and planned to build their own hotel on this land at the right time.

Two days later, on the ninth day of winter, it was the wedding day of He Chunfen and Chen Xiang.

The two of them had already received their certificates and lived together. This time it was just a wedding, so they didn't make any big fuss. They set up five or six tables at home and invited relatives and friends to come over and get together.

Relatives and friends were seated, and the wedding banquet officially began. Chen Xiang and He Chunfen came to toast everyone.

Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping raised their wine glasses and touched them with Chen Xiang and He Chunfen.

Xu Jingping said: "Second brother-in-law, my second sister will be taken care of by you from now on. You can't let my second sister be wronged."

"Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Chunfen and I will never let her suffer any injustice."

Yang Yukun said: "Second sister, second brother-in-law, I wish you a long life together and a happy marriage for a hundred years."

"Thank you."

Chen Xiang continued to take He Chunfen to pay respects to other relatives and friends, while Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping sat down and continued to eat.

After attending the wedding of He Chunfen and Chen Xiang, Yang Yukun, Xu Jingping and their father-in-law and mother-in-law stayed in Shanghai for a few more days, and then flew from Shanghai to Yangcheng.

Although they stayed in Shanghai for just ten days and flew away again like passers-by, there was a piece of land belonging to Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping in Pudong on the bank of the Huangpu River.
