Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 488 The grand blueprint
Chen Liang and Chen Fang were still excited when they returned home. In Fangshan, they played with cats and dogs, rode ponies, and fed calves and lambs. However, when they came back, Yan Jiekuang told them that the farm would not exist for long and that he would take them to ride horses on the prairie in the future.

Yan Jiekuang was packing up the remaining gifts. Some needed to be sent to his two brothers' homes, and some needed to be packed and sent to Yan Bugui. The car also needed to be sent for maintenance, but he didn't know where to go for maintenance. He could only call Ji Lian and prepare to hand the matter over to Xiao Zhang from the driver class. Ji Lian smiled and said, "Xiao Zhang, he is now the manager of the transportation department."

Chen Liang, like Xiao Jin, never left Yan Jiekuang's side and just kept hanging around him. Chen Fang, on the other hand, was very interested in her own little room. In her words, "This is the first time I have my own space, even though I still share a room with my brother."

Seeing Chen Fang picking flowers non-stop and tinkering with them in her room, Yan Jiekuang did not stop her. Which girl doesn't love beauty? Besides, she has two older sisters who dote on her and teach her.

As Yan Jiekuang packed up, he said, "Liangzi, how about I take you and your sister to kindergarten?"

Chen Liang hesitated a little and said, "My accent is different from theirs now. Will they laugh at me and my sister?"

"How could that be? You try to adapt to it. If it doesn't work, we can come back and try it for two days, okay?" Yan Jiekuang asked patiently.

Chen Liang nodded reluctantly. It seemed that he was very reluctant to go to kindergarten. However, Yan Jiekuang felt that Chen Liang was very sensible and more mature than other children of the same age. The same was true for Chen Fang, so he would not suffer any loss by going there.

After a while, Chen Fang ran over and said, "Dad, give me a vase. That flowerpot is ugly and takes up space."

Yan Jiekuang was stunned and said, "How can you move the flower pot into the house with your weak arms and legs? Can you do it?"

Chen Fang said, "Dad, I dragged it in little by little, but I couldn't move it onto the table. It was too heavy."

Chen Fang moved the osmanthus tree that she had always liked into the house, which made Yan Jiekuang laugh and cry.

Chen Liang also complained: "Why did you move it? If you move in, will you still be able to see the sun?"

Chen Fang was stunned. She had never thought about this question. She just thought it was beautiful. Yan Jiekuang said with a sly smile, "The flowers in our house are not good. There are only a few of them. I have sorted them out. I will take you to see your grandfather's back garden. It is really beautiful."

Yan Jiekuang packed up his things and took Chen Liang and his sister directly to his parents' home. As soon as they arrived at the west wing and hadn't even entered the door, they saw Zhou Nianping busy at the door of her tavern. Yan Jiekuang greeted her and also asked about Aunt Wang, also known as Widow Wang.

Zhou Nianping said with a bad face: "My mother is sick. She has a dislocated waist. The doctor said it's because she's tired. So I won't let her come."

When Yan Jiekuang heard that Widow Wang had been so strong all her life, yet now she was ill, he said, "I just came back. Please wait a moment. I have some Tibetan medicine here that is just right for treating back pain. I'll bring it to you later. I'll go see Aunt Wang when I have time."

Zhou Nianping knew that there was no need to be polite with Yan Jiekuang, so he nodded. Yan Jiekuang then took the child back to the west wing. The weather was good today. Yan Jiekuang saw that there was no one in the front yard and guessed that the mother must have taken her daughter to the garden.

As soon as Chen Liang entered the garden, he rushed to the pond with Xiao Jin. Chen Fang stared at the flowers all over the yard. Yan Bugui was bending over with a small shovel, picking up the flowers. Chen Fang ran over and shouted, "Grandpa, Grandpa, let me help you."

Yang Ruiping took a teacup and sat in the pavilion. Next to her was a baby carriage. The girl in the carriage was chatting with her word by word, but no one knew what they were talking about.

Yan Jiekuang said, "Dad, don't be busy yet. I put the things I brought back this time in the front hall. You can go and clean them up. By the way, there is a Tibetan medicine for treating back pain. Please keep it for me for a while and I will send it to the Zhou family."

Yan Bugui stood up, pounded his waist and said, "Why don't you think about me, your father? My waist is not feeling well, too."

"We have both, we have both. Widow Wang has a dislocated waist, so I thought of sending some over." Yan Jiekuang said.

Yan Bugui walked towards the front yard, but stopped after taking two steps and said, "Third brother, keep an eye on Fangfang. If a flower is missing, I'll ask you to do it." Then he turned and left.

Chen Fang looked at Yan Jiekuang and stuck out his tongue. She instantly lost all intention of helping and skipped over to find her grandmother.

"Grandma, we went horseback riding today. It was so much fun." Chen Fang said in a baby voice.

Yang Ruiping pulled Chen Fang over and said, "Be careful, don't fall." Chen Fang nodded obediently. Yan Jiekuang said, "Mom, are you tired? Is the child not making a fuss?"

"Well, he's not noisy at all and is much easier to take care of than Mr. Chen." Yang Ruiping said.

"Who is Chen Dada?" Yan Jiekuang was stunned and asked.

"Oh, your younger sister's child, his nickname is Dada, and his full name is Chen Dacheng. Zhibin gave him the name." Yang Ruiping explained.

Yan Jiekuang laughed and said, "Isn't this just taking advantage of others?"

At this time, Chen Liang pulled Yan Jiekuang's clothes and whispered, "Dad, please change my name too, so that my brother and sister and I can all change to your surname."

Yan Jiekuang shook his head and said, "Liangzi, you can't change it. You are just like your eldest brother and fourth sister. No matter what, your name can't be changed. Do you understand? You will understand when you grow up."

Yan Jiekuang knew that there was a difference between Chen Liang and his sister and Shi Lei and his sister. Shi Lei's parents had done their best, while Chen Liang's parents only cared about making money and didn't care much about their children. But they were still his parents after all, and this was a matter of principle.

Chen Liang nodded, as if he understood, but also as if he didn't understand. Yan Jiekuang smiled and said, "You are my son. No matter what you are called, you are my son."

Yang Ruiping said at the side: "Old Three, what have these three children been through? How can they be so sensible? It makes me feel sorry for them."

Yan Jiekuang said sadly: "They are too young and have suffered too much. Forget it, just wait until they are older."

At this time, Yang Ruiping talked to Yan Jiekuang about the trip to XZ. She looked at Yan Jiekuang with expectant eyes. Yan Jiekuang knew that his mother was concerned about him and wanted to know whether this time had helped him resolve the confusion in his heart.

Yan Jiekuang said, "Mom, don't worry. I have understood it now. In the past, I was too obsessed with whether I would get into trouble or not. I didn't want to cause any harm to myself and my family, so I was very cautious, timid, and sometimes even retreated. This time, I have also gained something. I will adjust myself, don't worry."

Yang Ruiping said: "That's good, do you have a goal in mind?"

Yan Jiekuang smiled and said, "I really have no interest in business matters. I will focus my main energy on running my family. Of course, I will still focus on academics and collections, but sometimes cultivating reserve talents in our family is also the foundation for the prosperity of a family."

When Yang Ruiping thought about Ji Lian's huge company, it would be meaningless for Yan Jiekuang to start another business. Yang Ruiping chuckled and asked, "Who are you going to start with?"

"Little Fatty, let's start with him. The next one will be Shi Li." Yan Jiekuang said firmly.

At this time, Xiaopang and Shi Li, who were in class at school, sneezed several times without realizing it.

Xiaopang was originally encouraged by Yan Jiekuang to study electronic information. On the way back this time, Yan Jiekuang planned to start his future plans from him.

At this time, Yan Bugui came over with a box and said, "I was going to deliver it directly, but after thinking about it, it would be better if you deliver it."

Yan Jiekuang took it and said to his father, "Dad, I remember you have vases. Find two for Fangfang."

Yan Bugui was unhappy and said, "You have a lot of bottles, why do you have to ask me for them?"

Yan Jiekuang rolled his eyes and said, "All my bottles are from the imperial kiln. How can I give them to her?"

Yan Jiekuang left with the medicine. Yan Bugui looked at Yan Jiekuang's back with his eyes rolling. This old man hasn't practiced qigong much recently and is preparing to re-enter the collecting world. He was worried that his stuff couldn't compare to those old guys in Shichahai, and now Yan Jiekuang has come to his door.
