Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

Wash the tables, chairs, benches, pots, pans, and bowls, count them, and take them home and put them back in the utility room.

When Han Chunming, Yang Huajian, Mao Ditu and others left, each of them took back two jars of Eight Immortals Drunk, Hanhai Nectar and Jieyuhua from Yang Yukun.

After washing up, Yang Yukun threw the clothes he had taken off into the washing machine and went to the living room of the main house.

"My mother called me in the afternoon and said they would be back tomorrow morning."

This afternoon, Xu Jingping received a call from his mother, saying that she would be back from Simatai tomorrow.

"You'll be back tomorrow, right? Then let mom and dad pick up big sister and brother-in-law at the airport."

"There's not enough room in my parents' car."

"That's right. I'll go to the airport to pick you up tomorrow. I don't know what time your sister and her family will take their flight tomorrow. I'll call them tomorrow morning to ask."

My father-in-law and mother-in-law brought Xiao Zongzi, Pingping, Xiao Yumi, Hou Li, and Black Panther.

If we ask my father-in-law and mother-in-law to pick up my eldest sister and the others, there really won't be enough room.

After all, there are four people with my eldest sister, so he should go to the airport tomorrow.

"Uncle Kun, auntie."

"Great grandpa, great grandma."

"Nephew, Fengzi, Xiaoxue, Xiaoli, it's you, come in and sit down."

Hearing someone calling, Yang Yukun lifted the door curtain and took a look into the yard. It was his eldest nephew Yang Guangcheng and great-grandson Yang Feng.

Xu Jingping said, "Guangcheng, Fengzi, Xiaoxue, Xiaoli, why are you here so late?"

Yang Feng said, "Grandpa, grandma, we will go back to our hometown to celebrate the New Year tomorrow morning. We will come to see you before we leave."

There are only a few days left until the Chinese New Year. Yang Feng, Zhang Xue and others will set out early tomorrow morning to return to their hometown in Yangsanjia Village.

Before leaving the capital to return to their hometown to celebrate the New Year, they came to say goodbye to their great-grandparents. After the New Year, they came back from their hometown and brought local specialties to wish their great-grandparents a happy New Year.

"Grandpa, grandma."

"Hey, Fengfeng, come here, let grandma hold you."

Yang Guangcheng said, "Uncle Kun, Auntie, are you the only ones at home? Where are my cousin Xiao Zongzi and the others?"

"Little Zongzi and Pingping, Little Yumi and their grandparents went to visit relatives in Simatai and will not be back until tomorrow."

"No wonder I didn't see them."

"Fengzi, what time is your flight tomorrow? Do you want me to take you to the airport?"

"Grandpa, we will take the 8:30 flight tomorrow morning and arrive in Jiangcheng at 11:00. No need to bother you. Uncle Mingrui will take us there tomorrow."

"Okay, then I wish you a safe journey. When you come back from your hometown, come to my house for dinner."

"okay."

"Xiao Li, I heard from your brother that you have a boyfriend. When are you going to bring him/her to show Grandpa and Grandma?"

Yang Li said, "Grandpa, I don't have a girlfriend. Don't listen to my brother's nonsense. My brother is easily fooled. When he saw me having a meal with someone else, he thought I was dating."

"Is there really no one for you?"

"Really? It was a new friend of mine. He invited me to dinner that day, and my brother saw it, so there was a misunderstanding."

Yang Feng said: "I have seen this young man at the door of our house more than once. I also know that his name is Lin Jianjun, a worker at Shougang Second Steel Plant."

“Brother, you…”

Yang Li stared at her elder brother blankly. She thought her relationship was a secret, but she didn't expect her elder brother to know everything.

"I have no objection to you dating. After all, you are 22 years old this year and have already reached the legal age for marriage. Nowadays, people value free love. I will not interfere with your dating. I just hope that you will treat your marriage seriously. It is a lifelong matter."

In my hometown, it’s common for people to get married at the age of 17 or 18. They just have a wedding banquet and don’t even get a marriage certificate.

Yang Feng didn't object to his sister dating, after all, the girl was already that old.

He was sure that the girl and the boy were dating, so he asked someone to find out about the boy's situation.

The young man's name is Lin Jianjun. He is the same age as his sister Yang Li, but three months older than Yang Li. He has parents at home, both of whom are workers at Shougang. He also works at Shougang's Second Steelmaking Plant.

"Brother, I'm not hiding the fact that I'm dating from you. I plan to tell you later."

"How did you know each other?"

"One day I was playing in Beihai Park and my bicycle chain fell off. I didn't know how to fix it myself, so my hands and face were covered in grease. He helped me, and that's how we met."

Yang Yukun smiled and said, "It looks like it won't be long before we can drink at Xiaoli's wedding."

"He told his parents about us and said he would take me home to meet his parents. I said I wasn't ready yet and would talk to him after the Chinese New Year."

"When you come back from your hometown, bring this kid here for me to see."

"Okay, Grandpa."

Yang Yukun then asked Yang Guangcheng: "Nephew, I heard from Brother Xiaowu that there were some good items in Liulichang recently?" "Yes, there were some good items, but unfortunately, by the time I found out, they were all gone."

"Has your store received any good items recently?"

"It's all little things."

"Fengzi, have you found anything good recently? Don't hide it. Show it to Grandpa."

"Grandpa, I found a pair of nice items a while ago. They are a pair of Tang Sancai horses."

"Isn't it another imitation?"

Yang Yukun remembered that Yang Feng had found a Tang Sancai horse before. The craftsmanship of the person who imitated this object was very superb, and it was so realistic that it looked indistinguishable from the real thing.

This time I found a pair of Tang Sancai horses, but I hope they are not imitations that are indistinguishable from the real ones.

"Every failure is a learning experience, great grandfather, this pair of Tang Sancai horses I found this time are really not imitations."

There is absolutely no way that Yang Feng would fall in the same place for the second time.

I had been cheated once before, when I bought a replica of a Tang Sancai horse and thought it was the real thing. How could I be fooled a second time?

After encountering this pair of Tang Sancai horses, he was extremely cautious and made sure that they were real Tang Sancai before he took action to buy them.

"Good. You know how to learn from your failures. This proves that you have made progress."

"My great grandfather and great grandfather taught me well. I will continue to work hard and strive to reach their level as soon as possible."

"These red pine nuts, hazelnuts, black fungus, wild mushrooms, and hericium erinaceus were brought back by Pian Ye from the Northeast. You can take some back to eat."

"Thank you, Grandpa."

"I won't be seeing you off tomorrow. Say hello to your parents for me."

"Grandpa, when I get home, I'll call you to let you know I'm safe."

"it is good."

Yang Yukun sent Yang Huajian, Yang Feng and others to the door, looked at the time, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening, so he went back to the room to sleep.

…………

"Master, Master Wife!"

"You came at the right time, just in time for dinner."

"It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. Master, what do you want for breakfast today?"

"Preserved egg and lean meat porridge, large mutton stuffed buns, mutton steamed buns, small pickles, go get your own bowls and chopsticks."

Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping were just about to start eating breakfast when their disciple Liu Yuehua arrived.

After putting the things down, Liu Yuehua went to the cupboard and got a set of bowls and chopsticks.

"It's delicious. The food made by the master is still the most delicious."

"Eat slowly."

"hey-hey……."

"I heard from your grandpa yesterday that you have a day off today. Are you on holiday now?"

"Yes, I just came back from the team and came to see you."

"How does it feel to follow the leader on a foreign visit?"

"It's not fun at all, and the food isn't good. If they didn't insist that I go, saying it's a mission, I wouldn't be willing to go."

In the eyes of others, accompanying the leader on a foreign visit is a matter of great honor, but Liu Yuehua does not think so. He would rather practice more martial arts with this time.

Yang Yukun said with a smile: "You are not happy to go on a foreign visit with a senior leader, and you have free travel and subsidies."

"Master, if it were you, would you be willing to go?"

"I don't want to go. If I have this time, I'd rather stay at home with your mistress, take care of the kids and cook."

"So I am not happy about it either. This is what they call like teacher, like student."

"Eat first. I'll check if you've missed any lessons later."

"Don't worry, Master. Even during this period of time when I was visiting abroad, I didn't fall behind in my studies."

"Are you full?"

"Hey, not yet."

"The teacher is not full either."

Yang Yukun prepared breakfast according to his and Xu Jingping's appetite. Now that there was one more person eating, it was naturally not enough.

The little boy ate his father out of money. The disciple ate more than his master. Yang Yukun made two more bowls of egg noodles before he was full. (End of this chapter)
