Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 505: Borrowing Money
When Yan Jiecheng walked to the back garden, he saw Yan Jiekuang smoking and playing with a puppy. He looked around and found that his father was nowhere to be seen, and was about to open his mouth to speak.

Then I heard Yan Jiekuang say, "Brother, don't ask me. I'm busy and there's no one to cook for the children at home. If you have anything to ask, ask my mother."

After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the front yard with Xiao Jin. When he arrived at the front yard, he greeted his mother and pushed the stroller out of the yard. After taking two steps, he found that his mother was following him, and Yan Jiecheng was following behind. Yang Ruiping said, "Mrs. Jia Zhang has asked me to go to her place several times. I just have time, so I will go and see her now."

Yan Jiecheng, who was standing behind him, got a little anxious when he heard this and asked, "Mom, if you leave, where should I go?"

"Go wherever you should go. Why don't you have a home? Hurry up, I'm going to close the shop." Yang Ruiping said.

Just like that, Yan Jiecheng was driven out, and Yan Jiekuang didn't care about him and went straight home.

After returning home, I called Xiao Wang from the company and asked him to send a van over. Then I started to make fried noodles with soybean paste. At noon, the family had a simple meal of noodles with soybean paste, and then I drove the children directly to Fangshan.

Arriving in Fangshan, Yan Jiekuang parked the car directly under the farm office building. Yan Jiekuang asked the children to wait in the yard, and then went upstairs to find Li Dong. Li Dong did not expect Yan Jiekuang to come today, and asked with a smile: "Boss, why are you here? Do you have any advice?"

"Don't joke around. I just brought the kids here to play. Also, I need some ingredients. Just send them to my private restaurant on Saturday." Yan Jiekuang handed the list to Li Dong.

Li Dong took the list and said without even looking at it, "No problem. So, are you going to take them to the zoo yourself?"

Yan Jiekuang nodded and said, "Just do your thing, don't worry about me. I'll also go to eat in the afternoon, so go ahead and do your thing."

After Yan Jiekuang finished speaking, he went downstairs and took the children to the zoo. The children were very excited, especially Xiaohai and his classmates, because Xiaohai had boasted that they could ride horses here.

The children had all been here before and were very familiar with it. As soon as they entered the zoo, they automatically split into two groups. Xiaohai took his classmates to the horse farm, while Xixi took Liangzi and Fangfang to the small zoo.

Yan Jiekuang pushed Nannan and Xiaojin to a rabbit yard, where there were little rabbits of all kinds. Xiaojin was yelling at the little rabbits arrogantly, but Yan Jiekuang finally stopped him from being arrogant. Nannan was so excited to see the little rabbits, so Yan Jiekuang put her on the grass and picked up two little rabbits.

Unexpectedly, Nannan started chatting with the little rabbit. The little rabbit was also curious about this little baby and kept circling around her. Yan Jiekuang sat aside, lit a cigarette and watched her.

Yan Jiekuang played with the children for two or three hours before they prepared to go back. The children were reluctant to leave because they had also heard from the staff that the place was going to move away and this would probably be their last time to come to the zoo.

Yan Jiekuang was worried today. He was concerned about Ji Lian's surprise visit to the cafe today and didn't know what the outcome would be. So when he got home, he arranged for the children to take care of themselves and started cooking.

Xiaopang will definitely be back today. In addition to those who are traveling, the family members are also back. He was cooking when he suddenly received a call from Ji Lian. Yan Jiekuang answered the phone. Ji Lian said, "Cook a few more dishes in the evening. I want to take Wen Yun and Lingling back. Oh, Xiaopang will also be back."

Yan Jiekuang agreed, hung up the phone, and thought about it. It was the two little girls who had settled the matter with Ji Lian, otherwise Ji Lian would not have invited them home for dinner.

When Yan Jiekuang prepared all the ingredients, Ji Lian came back with the three people. Yan Jiekuang said, "Wash up, we'll have dinner soon. Xiaopang, come quickly and help serve the dishes."

Xiao Pang ran to the kitchen happily, washed his hands first, and then helped his father. Yan Jiekuang asked in a low voice: "So, did you deal with your mother?"

The fat boy said proudly: "That's right, didn't you see whose wife she is? My wife is very smart."

"You look like a fool. You haven't even gotten married yet, but you're calling her wife-in-law. Isn't that shameful? Call her your partner." Yan Jiekuang rolled his eyes at him and said.

Xiao Pang smiled foolishly and said, "In the afternoon, the two sisters took my mother shopping. After the whole trip, the three of them were like sisters."

Yan Jiekuang understood in his heart that the most important thing was that Ji Lian had already recognized Lingling, and then he said, "Okay, wait until the beginning of next spring, find a time for you to go to their house and invite their parents to come here, so that we can meet, and after that, we will start to process the procedures for you. I'm talking about the procedures for going abroad, so don't think too much."

Xiaopang was a little excited. He hugged Yan Jiekuang from behind and said, "Thank you, Dad. I love you the most." "Okay, you love me if you study hard. Hurry and serve the dishes." Yan Jiekuang said.

Yan Jiekuang had just put the last soup on the table when his phone rang. As soon as Yan Jiekuang picked up the phone, Yang Ruiping's anxious voice came from the other end, "Third brother, come here quickly. Your father has fainted from the anger of the old man. Hurry up."

Yan Jiekuang was startled, hung up the phone, and said to them, "You guys eat first, I have something to do and need to go out for a while."

Ji Lian heard Yang Ruiping's voice, stood up and asked, "Are you okay? I'll go with you."

"No need. This is the first time that Wen Yun and Ling Ling come to our house. You should accompany them. You won't be able to help much if you go. I'll go. It's a small matter." Yan Jiekuang said, then turned and left. Halfway through, he came back to the study to get his briefcase, and then went out again.

When Yan Jiekuang arrived at the west wing, there was no one in the front yard. It was not until he walked to the back yard that he saw that the door of the main room was open. Yan Bugui was dozing off on a recliner, and Yang Ruiping was sitting next to him, talking about something.

"Dad, how are you? Do you want to go to the hospital?" Yan Jiekuang said.

Yan Bugui opened his eyes, looked at Yan Jiekuang, waved his hand and said, "No need, I'm just angry."

Yang Ruiping said, "That damned boss only knows how to ask for money. If you want money, go ask your wife. But he insisted on settling accounts with your father, from childhood to adulthood. Your father must have been mad. He really didn't want to see him, so he pretended to faint from anger, and that's why the boss ran away."

After hearing what his mother said, Yan Jiekuang let out a long sigh and said, "Mom, your phone call almost scared me to death."

Yang Ruiping rolled his eyes at him and said, "How would I know that your father was pretending? And you too, why are you pretending to faint? You even scared me." Then he turned around and said to Yan Bugui.

"How did the boss become like this? He was kicked out of the restaurant by his own wife, who also controls his financial lifeline. But he should find a job on his own. Why does he still come to me and ask for money?" Yan Bugui said angrily.

Yan Jiekuang frowned and said, "That's not right. Wasn't the person who cheated him caught? Didn't he return the money?"

Yan Bugui shook his head and said, "The money of the old man in Liulichang was returned to him directly before they had time to transfer it. He has almost spent it all, and those people don't have any savings. You can't ask the police to pay for it, right? He has lost both his wife and his army. Now, in order to pay back the money, he has set his sights on me."

Yan Jiekuang then realized why his elder brother had no bottom line. Yu Li would never pay him back. He was desperate. Yan Jiekuang thought for a while and asked, "Dad, how much is the total?"

Yan Bugui was stunned and asked, "Third brother, you are not going to pay back the money for the eldest brother, are you?"

Yan Jiekuang shook his head and said, "I'm not that stupid. I lent it to him. We can't just watch him get stuck in this problem. But it's a loan, and I have to be a bit tactful."

Yan Bugui became interested when he heard this and said, "Come on, third brother, sit down and talk quickly. I'm so fed up with him." Yang Ruiping also looked at him expectantly. Yan Jiekuang knew that his mother was just disappointed with his eldest brother, but she was still very happy to help him out of his predicament.

Yan Jiekuang said: "The money you lend to your eldest brother must be lent in front of Yu Li. First, tell your eldest brother that if he wants to solve the problem, he cannot get around the family factor. Second, it must be lent in front of my second brother and me. The important thing is that the money is from you. It is your retirement money. If he has the nerve to take all your retirement money for himself, then I will not care about him anymore in the future."

After hearing this, Yan Bugui said hesitantly, "If you do this, you are putting the boss on the spot. How can this work?"

Yan Jiekuang said: "A heavy hammer is needed to beat a drum. This time we must move the boss's speculative mind over, otherwise there will be trouble in the future."

The old couple thought for a while, and Yan Bugui nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it during the party on the weekend, but not in front of the children. We have to give the eldest son some face, so we can do it after dinner."

Yan Jiekuang talked to the old couple for a while before going home.
