Siheyuan: Domineering life

Chapter 1214: Pond Clearing Operation
middle-aged.

When you are at an age where you have old people above you and young people below you, there is nothing more pleasant than having the whole family together in a lively and lively atmosphere. With parents above you can fulfill your filial duties as a son, and children and grandchildren below you can enjoy the company of a family, and the husband and wife can be happy and treat each other as equals.

For ordinary people, this age is the most tormenting. It is the age when one has to work like an ox or a horse and suffer. One wants to die but dares not. One cannot afford to live, but cannot die. As long as one lives one day, one has to work like an ox or a horse.

However, Yang Jun does not have such worries. For most people, his age is the happiest age. He does not have to worry about life or consider everything. He should enjoy his life, respect his elders, and it is okay to beat his children when he is free.

Although money is not omnipotent, but without money is absolutely impossible. Money can solve most of the troubles in life. If you have no money, you can only work like a slave and worry about three meals a day.

Life is so annoying, but there is also simple happiness in the annoyingness.

After Wang Yuying moved back, Yang Jun felt happier than before.

During this period, the work at the unit was not so busy, so Tan Qin could just handle it. He had nothing else to do at home every day except drinking tea and fishing.

Fishing is just a pretext, an excuse to kill time. If Yang Jun had liked fishing a little bit, his fishing skills would have improved a lot over the years and he would still hold the title of Air Force Commander.

It was the same today. Yang Jun had thrown his fishing rod into the water for more than two hours, but he didn't see a single fish.

"boom!"

Suddenly there was a noise, startling Yang Jun who was dozing off.

He opened his eyes and saw that there was a fish in the bucket next to him. He looked at the fishing rod, which was still in the water. Then he looked back at Sun Zhaocai and Sha Zhu behind him.

"What did you two do?"

"No."

The two of them shook their heads at the same time: "The fish jumped up by itself."

Hearing this, Yang Jun rolled his eyes and said, "Is it an old man who hanged himself because he thought his life was too long, so he jumped up by himself?"

"Why would I lie to you?"

The two men said with red necks: "It just jumped up by itself. We didn't do anything. If you don't believe me, you can check the surveillance."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun ignored them and lay back on the rattan chair.

"Let it go."

No matter how it came up, it was not caught by him, and he did not feel the joy of a fisherman at all.

Afterwards, Yang Jun closed his eyes and continued to rest.

After a while, he smelled the aroma of barbecue.

I sniffed it and it smells quite fragrant.

When I opened my eyes, I saw that the two guys had brought the grill over and were grilling fish.

"Don't you two feel hot now?"

Normally, these two guys are most afraid of heat. They feel as hot as dogs every day, with their mouths wide open and their bodies as if washed with water. But as long as you mention eating barbecue, these two guys will immediately stop sticking out their tongues.

"Hehe, Uncle Yang, it would be a waste to let it go. It's better to have a full meal." Sun Zhaocai said with a smile.

"Godfather, if we don't eat the fish in the river, they will grow into whales." Sha Zhu said with a smile.

Yang Jun rolled his eyes when he heard this.

"You two good-for-nothings can find any excuse to get a bite to eat."

"Godfather, I'm telling the truth. If the fish in the river don't eat anymore, the pond will be too big to hold them."

Silly Zhu sat there like a pile of shit, then counted on his fingers and analyzed: "Think about it, how many years have passed since your manor was built? At least ten years, right?"

"Since we put in 50,000 fish, we have only eaten a few. The fish in the river have become a disaster now."

Yang Jun heard this and thought for a moment.

It's no wonder that the fish in the pond have been there for almost ten years. During this period, apart from the fish used in the kitchen every day, they have not been caught much. The river is like a boiling pot every day, and the surface of the water is full of bubbles from the fish's breathing.

"Since there are so many fish, why can't I catch them all?" Yang Jun said.

When the two heard this, their expressions and actions were the same. They rolled their eyes and turned their mouths to the side.

That looks like you don't know your own situation?

"What's your expression?" Yang Jun asked.

"Uncle Yang, can you be a little more self-aware? With your fishing skills, even if you put a fish on the hook, it will slip away. Do you believe it?"

"That's right, godfather. It's not that I look down on your skills, but even a dog can catch fish with its tail." Sha Zhu agreed.

"You two are getting more and more daring. Do you believe I will beat you up?"

"You're not good at it, but you don't allow people to tell the truth." The two of them whispered.

Even though they spoke in low voices, Yang Jun, who had sensitive hearing, still heard it.

"Huh, I'm not good at technology?"

Yang Jun rolled his eyes and said, "If I were ruthless, I could catch all the fish without any skills."

When the two heard this, their eyes lit up.

Then, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Then they all shook their heads: "I don't believe it."

"Don't believe it?" Yang Jun sneered, "Just wait and see if you don't believe it."

"Let's wait and see." They said in unison.

The two guys had a faint smile on their faces, looking like they had succeeded in their evil plan.

Yang Jun also had a sudden inspiration and stood up from the rattan chair.

"Get me some pumps, I want to drain the river."

He was also angry. The Air Force had been very annoyed for so many years, and today, he had to take away this title.

Seeing that there was no movement behind him and no one responded to him, Yang Jun turned around and looked back.

I saw the two guys running towards the shore.

"Fuck, I got fooled."

Nothing can stop a foodie's desire.

The two of them had been thinking about the fish in the pond for a long time, especially the grilled fish they just ate, which left them wanting more.

An hour later, four brand new pumps were neatly placed on the shore.

Sun Zhaocai and Sha Zhu were sticking their butts out tinkering with the water pump, one of them connecting the pipe and the other one pumping oil into the pump.

Seeing this, Yang Jun walked over with his hands behind his back, and without saying a word, kicked each of them in the buttocks.

"You're just a spendthrift. Do you really need a pump like this?"

The two guys didn't move at all and continued to do their work.

"Hey, Uncle Yang, wouldn't four pumps be faster? You have money anyway."

Sha Zhu said in a humming voice: "We were afraid that you would be greedy, so we wanted to drain the water from the river as soon as possible."

When Yang Jun heard this, his eyes almost rolled up to the ceiling.

"I think it's you who are greedy, right?"

"Hey, same, same."

Later, Yang Jun joined them.

Today, on a whim, he thought the pond clearing operation was quite interesting.

One end of the pumping pipe is connected to the sewer and the other end is placed in the river.

As soon as the pump was started, it began to work.

This pond is not small, estimated to be about four or five hundred square meters. If we want to pump out the water, it will probably take two or three days to drain it out.

When we first dug this pond, we only wanted to make it bigger so we could fish and row a boat there, but now it takes a lot of effort to build it up.

The sound of the pump motor attracted a group of women and children. When they heard that Yang Jun was going to drain the water in the pond, they immediately showed interest, especially the little ones. They had never seen such a scene before, and they squatted by the river and looked at the water.

But after watching for a while, they lost interest.

The water level remained the same; even with four pumps working simultaneously, the water level could not be seen to drop.

"Oh, we won't have fish tonight."

Looking at the motionless water surface, Sun Zhaocai couldn't help but sigh.

When Sha Zhu heard this, he smacked his lips a few times, and suddenly his eyes lit up. "How about getting a few more water pumps?"

After saying that, the two of them subconsciously turned to look at Yang Jun.

When he saw Yang Jun's gloomy face, he immediately gave up the idea.

"It looks like we'll have to wait until tomorrow to finish smoking."

The two men stopped talking and squatted by the river with their bare chests.

Yang Jun looked at it for a while and felt that he couldn't finish smoking it in a short time, so he went back to the backyard.

As soon as I arrived at the backyard, I saw my sister Yangmei there.

She was talking to her mother Wang Yuying. The two of them seemed very happy and laughed from time to time.

When they saw Yang Jun coming, the mother and daughter immediately stopped chatting.

"elder brother."

"Ah."

Yang Jun hummed softly, then found a seat to sit down.

He lit a cigarette, took a puff, and exhaled the thick smoke from his mouth.

"You're not at work?"

"No, I'm taking a break today. I came here to accompany mom." Yangmei said.

After hearing this, Yang Jun said nothing more.

Yangmei came over every day, sometimes several times a day. He had long been accustomed to it. The brother and sister met each other frequently and basically chatted about nothing serious.

Seeing that Yang Jun didn't say anything, Yang Jun blinked a few times and said, "Brother, there is something I want to tell you."

"Well, you say." Yang Jun said lightly.

Hearing this, Yang Mei first glanced at her mother Wang Yuying, then said in a deep voice: "The day before yesterday, Peng Li gave birth to a boy."

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

Maybe because he had too many women, his first reaction was that there was no one named Peng Li among his women. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that he really didn't know any Peng Li.

"Who is Peng Li?"

Hearing this, Yang Mei pursed her lips and said, "Brother, you are really a noble man who forgets things easily. Peng Li is Lao Wu's... that one."

"Oh."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun immediately remembered this person.

Before the fifth brother Yang Huai went to jail, there was a woman. It was because of this woman that the fifth brother divorced Yuan Erni. After the fifth brother went to jail, Peng Li disappeared.

A few months have passed, and when I heard the news, I was still shocked.

Yang Jun hesitated for a moment and said, "Is it Lao Wu's?"

"do not know."

Yang Mei shook her head and said, "It's because I'm not sure that I came to you for help."

"I went to see Lao Wu yesterday and verified the news with him. If we calculate based on the time, it should be his. However, since Lao Wu went to prison, the two have not been in contact for several months, and no one knows about this child..."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun looked up at Wang Yuying.

"Mom, what do you say?"

Wang Yuying sat there calmly, pondered for a moment, and said, "Let's verify it first."

"If it is really our Huai'er's child, then we must not let the blood of the old Yang family be left out in the world. If it is not... then just ignore him."

Hearing this, Yang Jun turned around and asked Yang Mei: "What do you want me to do?"

"Brother, go meet Lao Wu and ask him to do a genetic test with the child."

Yang Mei couldn't do this kind of thing, so she could only ask Yang Jun for help.

"no problem."

After Yang Jun finished speaking, he picked up the phone.

"Xiaojun..."

After hanging up the phone, Yang Jun said, "You should have done some research on this, right?"

Yang Mei: "Well, when that woman came to me with the child, I was also stunned, but I couldn't guarantee whether the child was Lao Wu's, so I arranged the mother and child in a secret place, and then I came to find you."

"Afterwards, I asked someone to do an investigation and found that since Lao Wu went to jail, Peng Li has indeed been living alone in a rented house in the suburbs and has not dated any other men during that time. I guess this child is most likely Lao Wu's."

Yang Jun: "Don't speculate yet. Let's talk about this after we finish the genetic test."

"If it is really Lao Wu's flesh and blood, we can't let his child wander around outside."

After saying that, he paused for a moment and then continued, "Don't let Erni know about this in advance."

"Province."

Wang Yuying: "What a sin."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and said nothing.

Seeing Wang Yuying continuing to nag, Yang Jun quickly stood up.

"Meizi, stay with mom and chat for a while. I'll ask someone to investigate."

He really didn't want to listen to his mother's nagging. Whenever his mother started nagging, she couldn't help but talk about Yang Huai. Every time this happened, Yang Jun felt very embarrassed. His mother's words implied that she wanted Lao Wu to come out, but reason told her that Lao Wu must not be allowed to come out and harm others, so she was also very conflicted. Once she was conflicted, she would start nagging and crying to Yang Jun, which gave Yang Jun a headache.

"Oh, I see, brother."

After coming out of Yang Jun's mother's yard, he went directly to Yi Qiu Shui's yard.

Yi Qiushui was chatting with her sister Yi Qiuyue. When she saw Yang Jun coming, Yi Qiuyue stood up and greeted him.

"Brother-in-law."

"Well, Qiuyue is here."

This aunt is also a frequent visitor to our home. She lives in Jiuyuan, just across the street. She comes home every three days and it's like her own home.

"Brother-in-law, I'm here to give you an invitation."

After saying that, Yi Qiuyue smiled and handed over a gorgeous invitation.

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

"When did you get divorced?"

Before, she had been divorcing Guan Peng, and Yang Jun thought she had divorced and remarried.

"What, brother-in-law, are you so eager for us to get divorced?" Yi Qiuyue shouted dissatisfiedly.

At this time, Yi Qiushui interrupted and said, "Old Yang, Meiling was admitted to Yan University. Here is the invitation to the admission banquet."

"Oh, you scared me." Yang Jun rolled his eyes and said, "I thought you two got divorced and remarried."

"Brother-in-law, hey...you're hoping that we'll get divorced."

Yi Qiuyue was speechless about Yang Jun's way of thinking.

"We are in a good relationship now, how can we get divorced?"

"Well, as long as we don't get divorced." Yang Jun acted very calmly.

After a slight pause, he continued, "Which university did you say Meiling was admitted to?"

Yi Meiling is Yi Qiuyue's eldest daughter. After returning to the city, she changed her surname to Yi. Because she started school late, she did not go to high school until she was 20 years old. Unexpectedly, she graduated from high school in the blink of an eye and was admitted to university.

"Yan University."

When Yi Qiuyue said this, her face was full of pride.

"Did you pass the exam through serious means or..." Yang Jun.

"Brother-in-law."

Yi Qiushui shouted in dissatisfaction: "Can you please stop looking at people with tinted glasses? Meiling passed the exam based on her own ability."

Yang Jun: "..."
