Siheyuan: Domineering life

Chapter 1205 Remembering the Glorious Past
Yang Jun didn't care whether Yang Mei and the others were angry or not. He only cared whether Lao Wu would cause him trouble.

He didn't expect Lao Wu to turn over a new leaf, he just hoped that he would stay in there and not come out to cause trouble for him, as for family affection...

Yang Jun said that he was not a heartless and ungrateful person. He would not abandon his own brother, but he would not do anything more outrageous for him. Anyway, as long as he could ensure that his brother did not die, as for the rest... he could not care less.

The days passed by like flowing water.

Every little thing in life can cultivate one's sentiments. Yang Jun, who is pure-hearted and has few desires, has been enjoying this feeling. Although the trivialities in life are boring, they can be regarded as a kind of attitude towards life.

Before we knew it, it was the Dragon Boat Festival.

That day, Yi Qiu Shui's three sisters came to play at home.

Luo Yanhong and Ding Qiunan did not bring their children with them and came alone.

After they arrived, they went straight to Yi Qiu Shui's yard. It was not until after noon that the nanny came to call him to eat.

The meal was served in Yi Qiu Shui's yard. When Yang Jun arrived, the three of them were already sitting there.

"Old Yang, come quickly, we are just waiting for you."

From a distance, Luo Yanhong kept waving at him.

"Brother-in-law."

Ding Qiunan stood up and greeted him with a smile.

Luo Yanhong can joke with Yang Jun, but she can't. Not only is he the youngest of the three sisters, but he is also a relative. Her husband Guo Tianming is Yi Qiu Shui's younger brother. Therefore, no matter what time, she has always respected Yang Jun.

"Hey, I'm here to eat again."

Yang Jun found a seat and sat down with a smile.

"What are you talking about? You should feel honored to be able to come to your house for a meal." Luo Yanhong shouted.

"I mean I'm here to eat for free again." Yang Jun said with a smile.

"I think you're taking care of me."

“Haha, feel whatever you want. I’m not talking about you anyway,” Yang Jun said.

Yi Qiushui said with a smile: "You are all aware of what kind of person Old Yang is. You are always quarreling with each other as soon as you meet. You feel uncomfortable if you don't have a few words with him."

Hearing this, Luo Yanhong curled her lips and said, "I knew that your old Yang was a bad-mouthed person, but I didn't expect that after becoming a big leader, he still couldn't change his old habits."

"Haha, if he could change his old habits, he wouldn't be Old Yang anymore."

Ding Qiunan interrupted, "Brother-in-law, that was humor. How come it becomes a joke when it comes to you?"

"Hey, hey, hey, stop repeating yourself. Why do I feel like you are scolding me?" Yang Jun said.

"Brother-in-law, how dare I? I'm just praising you." Ding Qiunan said with a smile.

"Giggle!"

Seeing this, Yi Qiu Shui and Luo Yanhong laughed so hard that they couldn't straighten their backs.

"Let's take Qiu Nan's words as the opposite."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun rolled his eyes continuously.

This scene made the three of them even more unscrupulous.

Afterwards, Yi Qiu Shui opened a bottle of red wine and the four of them started drinking.

"Hey, Lao Luo, how is your back injury?" Yang Jun asked.

Hearing this, Luo Yanhong rolled her eyes at him and said, "What do you mean? Are you hoping that I will get better or that I won't get better?"

"Hey, how can you not tell good from bad? I'm just concerned about you."

Yang Jun smiled and said, "I'm just worried that you can't do strenuous exercise, right?"

"piss off."

Luo Yanhong was so angry that she wanted to punch him, but Yang Jun dodged.

"Speak nicely and don't be impatient."

Seeing Luo Yanhong being humiliated, Yang Jun smiled with glee.

Seeing this, Luo Yanhong became even more angry and stood up to chase Yang Jun to beat him, but was stopped by Yi Qiu Shui.

"My dear sister, please don't get angry. Your waist injury hasn't healed yet. If you twist your waist by accident, you will suffer."

Ding Qiunan also advised: "Yes, Sister Yanhong, you should be careful."

Seeing this, Luo Yanhong was so angry that she pointed at Yang Jun's nose and cursed: "Yang, you wait for me."

"Okay, okay, I was wrong. I apologize."

Yang Jun smiled and said, "Let's eat quickly, or the food will get cold."

"Yes, yes, let's eat."

Yi Qiu Shui pushed Luo Yanhong onto the chair, and then they started eating.

"Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. It's a rare occasion for us to get together. I propose a toast." Yi Qiu Shui said.

"Yes, let's do one." Ding Qiunan agreed.

Luo Yanhong raised her cup, glared at Yang Jun, and said angrily: "I won't clink glasses with you."

"late."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun touched her while she wasn't paying attention.

"Ding!"

Then drink it all in one gulp.

"You scoundrel, so shameless." Luo Yan said with a red face.

Then, he smiled and drank the wine in the glass.

After finishing a glass of wine, refill it.

Then everyone started eating and chatting while eating.

From the time we met at the steel mill to the time we each started our own families, it has been seventeen years.

Everyone has changed a lot in the past seventeen years, especially Luo Yanhong. She is almost 50 years old, with more wrinkles on her face and a more aged look. She is moving towards the ranks of the elderly.

Among the three of them, Ding Qiunan is the youngest, but her charm is no longer what it used to be, and she looks like an old person.

Among the three, Yi Qiu Shui is the only one who has not turned bad. Due to the nourishment of dragon essence and phoenix marrow, she has maintained the age of 27 or 28 years old for so many years. In addition, due to good maintenance, she looks younger than she looks. Her skin is white, smooth and elastic. She looks like a real young girl.

"Alas, we are all old."

Seeing that Yi Qiu Shui and Yang Jun looked almost the same as they did in the past, Luo Yanhong couldn't help but sigh.

"Thinking back then, I was also in my prime..."

"When I met you, you were already middle-aged." Yang Jun interrupted.

"Mr. Yang, shut up." Luo Yanhong said angrily.

Yi Qiushui: "Old Yang, don't interrupt, let Sister Yanhong continue."

Hearing this, Luo Yanhong snorted, "I don't want to talk about it anymore."

"I was having a good meal, but he made a mess of it. I will never come to your house for dinner again."

"Haha."

Several people laughed when they heard this.

Yi Qiushui said with a smile: "Husband, can you please let everyone have a peaceful meal?"

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore."

Yang Jun quickly raised his hands to show his surrender. Seeing that Yang Jun had stopped talking nonsense, the others stopped talking.

As they chatted, Ding Qiunan suddenly said, "Time flies by so fast. In the blink of an eye, we are all old. It has been almost ten years since Tianming left."

As he spoke, Ding Qiunan's eyes turned red.

No one knows how she has been through these years. It is really not easy to raise three children alone. Although she has no worries about food and clothing, the rich material life still cannot make up for the spiritual emptiness. When Guo Tianming left, she was only about 30 years old. She was young at that time. God knows how she survived these ten years.

When Yang Jun heard this, he sighed.

However, he couldn't say anything because he was also responsible for all the consequences.

He did not approve of Ding Qiunan remarrying or starting a new marriage life. He did so mainly for the sake of the Guo family's reputation. Although Guo Caodi was gone, his son-in-law was still there. As long as he was there, he would never allow Ding Qiunan to do anything that would damage the Guo family's reputation. He had to help the Guo family keep that bloodline.

Yang Jun has no regrets about what he has done, and he believes that Ding Qiunan can understand his reasons for doing so.

Ding Qiunan is now considered a wealthy lady. Years of upbringing have made her understand that many things are beyond her control, especially in this family, and she can't expect everything to go her way.

Seeing this, Yi Qiushui patted the back of her hand and said, "Qiu Nan, everything is fine now. The child has grown up. You have finally done your duty to Tianming."

Ding Qiunan sniffed when she heard this, then wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said with a smile: "Sister Qiushui is right, it doesn't matter if I suffer a little, as long as the child is fine."

"Yes, for the children."

Luo Yanhong raised her glass and clinked it with hers, then said bitterly, "If it weren't for the child, I would have to divorce him."

Upon hearing this, Yi Qiu Shui's face turned awkward.

"I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about myself." Luo Yanhong said.

Yi Qiushui smiled bitterly and said, "I know."

When he was done, he raised his glass and said, "It's all for the children."

Yi Qiu Shui was also feeling bitter, and she also had her own unknown troubles. With so many women in Yang Jun's family, it was impossible for her not to hate him. However, she did not have the courage to cut off her own arm.

She has too many responsibilities on her shoulders. As long as she is there, the relationship between the Yi family and Yang Jun will not be broken. Their Yi family is now in the stage of recovery and cannot do without Yang Jun's support. What's more, her son Yang Chengdao has grown up now and is also facing a dispute over family property. She can't afford to be angry at this time.

She had long since let it go. It was just a few more women in the family. It did not affect her family status, and no one could take the family property away from her. Therefore, for the sake of the Yi family and her son, she could not leave Yang Jun.

The following gathering was basically a tea party for the three women to complain. Yang Jun couldn't get a word in at all, and he didn't dare to interrupt.

In the evening, Yang Jun had another reunion dinner with his family.

During the following period of time, Yang Jun had a lot of free time. Every day he either fished at Diaoyutai or stayed in the pavilion drinking tea.

That day, he suddenly had an idea and took Sun Zhaocai and Sha Zhu to Jiuyuan across the street.

As soon as you enter the community gate, you will see a striking slogan erected at the door: "It is forbidden to bring any animals into the community." "It is forbidden to keep living things" and so on.

Seeing this scene, Yang Jun was very pleased.

The previous person in charge of the property was too irresponsible. They allowed the owners to raise animals without any care. There was nothing Yang Jun could do, so he fired all of them in a fit of anger. Now a new group of people has been hired, and looking at the situation now, it seems that the situation has improved a lot.

"Great leader."

As soon as Yang Jun entered the gate, several wooden stakes at the door saluted him.

Yang Jun put his hands behind his back and nodded slightly as a greeting.

Then he walked straight inside.

He originally wanted to go see Xiaoliu, but suddenly remembered that Xiaoliu should be training in the swimming pool at this time, so he turned around and went to the swimming pool.

Ever since Xiaoliu became obsessed with swimming, Yang Jun had Jiuyuan Club converted into a swimming pool, making it impossible for other people to move around normally and causing a lot of unrest. But there was nothing that could be done, because Yang Jun doted on Xiaoliu.

When I arrived at the swimming pool, I saw a legless girl swimming in the nearly 100-meter pool.

That person was none other than Yang Chengliu.

Although she lost her legs in the Amazon, she did not lose her positive attitude towards life. She practiced her swimming skills hard in order to show her talents in this year's Paralympics and prove to the world that she was not defeated by life and fate.

Seeing Xiaoliu facing life so positively, Yang Jun's heart finally settled down.

"Godfather."

At this time, Yang Chengwu came over.

He now accompanies Xiaoliu to practice swimming every day and never leaves her side.

"Ah."

Yang Jun hummed softly.

Then he sat on the bench by the swimming pool with his hands behind his back.

He took out a cigarette and lit one, and Yang Chengwu immediately came over to light it for him.

"Godfather, how come you have time to come here today?"

"Can't I come and see Xiaoliu?" Yang Jun glared at him unhappily.

"Hehe, of course. I'm hoping you'll come to see Xiaoliu every day." Yang Chengwu said with a smile.

After that, he also lit a cigarette for himself.

"I see that Xiaoliu is in pretty good shape. It shouldn't be a problem for him to win a medal, right?"

Looking at Yang Chengliu swimming in the water like a dragon, Yang Jun felt touched.

"That's necessary."

After that, Yang Chengwu came up to Yang Jun and whispered, "I have already informed the Paralympic Committee. Xiaoliu will definitely win a medal."

Yang Jun was stunned for a moment when he heard this.

Then he pointed at his nose and cursed: "You are messing around again, kid."

"I advise you to stop this as soon as possible. If Xiaoliu knew that you were doing this behind her back, wouldn't she hate you to death?"

"Godfather, I have also taken this into consideration, so I didn't give you a gold medal, just a bronze medal." Yang Chengwu said.

"Even a bronze medal is not acceptable." Yang Jun interrupted, "You'd better not do anything. Xiaoliu should get whatever score she can get. Don't give her any extra credit."

After that, he sighed and continued, "Xiaoliu wants to participate in the Paralympics not to win any medals, but to show her attitude towards life. You must not make things worse, do you understand?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Chengwu looked as if he had suddenly understood something.

"Godfather, thank goodness you reminded me in time, otherwise I would have done something bad with good intentions."

"Don't worry, I will cancel this matter and let Xiaoliu have a fair match."

Hearing this, Yang Jun sighed and said, "I hope you really understand."

"Godfather, I really understand, don't worry."

"Ah."

Afterwards, Yang Jun walked to the edge of the swimming pool, followed Xiaoliu's swimming direction and walked side by side with her in the same direction.

"Xiao Liu, do you want to come up and rest for a while?"

"Godfather, don't disturb me, I'm testing it."

Xiaoliu said as he swam.

"Forehead……"

Xiaoliu suddenly choked on the water and started thrashing around on the spot.

"Godfather, it's all your fault. You made me choke on the water." Yang Chengliu complained.

"Is it my fault?"

Yang Jun rolled his eyes and said, "You can only blame yourself for being unprofessional. Have you ever seen anyone talk while swimming?"

Yang Chengliu: “…”
