Siheyuan: Domineering life

Around ten o'clock, guests began to arrive.

Yang Jun came today as a relative and a guest, so he did not go to the front door to greet the guest.

Besides, with his status, there is no guest worthy of him to welcome personally.

He and Yi Qiu Shui sat in the living room, waiting for the engagement banquet to begin.

Aunt Guo, who was in her seventies, personally ran to the door to greet the guests. Although she was old, she was very energetic, especially today, the smile on her face never stopped. Ding Qiunan was by her side, greeting every guest with a smile on her face.

Since Guo Caodi's death, the Guo family has not had so many guests for many years. Those who came to the engagement banquet today were basically Guo Caodi's old friends, or their family members or children. As the old people gradually grew older, the younger generation began to take over the friendship of the older generation and continue to maintain the relationship between the two families.

Among the people who came to the engagement banquet, only a small number were old friends of the Guo family. A large number came for Yang Jun. Many of these people were strangers to him, let alone Aunt Guo and Ding Qiunan. However, guests are guests, and there is no reason to drive them away. Besides, they were happy to see this scene.

"Old Yang, damn Old Yang, where are you hiding?"

Just as Yang Jun and Yi Qiu Shui were chatting in the side hall, they heard someone calling them outside.

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun's face suddenly darkened.

Seeing this, Yi Qiushui smiled and said, "Your gang of friends are here, go meet them quickly."

When Yang Jun heard this, he held his forehead with one hand.

These guys were so disrespectful to him that they even made fun of him on such an important occasion.

"Hey."

Yang Jun sighed, then shouted out the door: "My dear grandson, your grandpa is here."

"Haha, what a stupid old Yang."

Wang Erwa suddenly appeared out of nowhere and started joking as soon as they met.

"You unfilial son, I am your father." Yang Jun scolded with a smile.

"Wow, you are my father, then who is she?"

Wang Erwa was not angry at all. Not only that, he continued to joke and looked at Yi Qiu Shui beside him.

Seeing this, Yi Qiu Shui stood up in panic.

"You two brothers can chat. I'll go see if the baby is ready."

After saying that, he left as if running away.

The two brothers can joke around in any way they want, but as a woman, she cannot get involved, especially such sissy and sissy stuff, she cannot bear it.

"Haha, damn Old Yang, you didn't expect me to be the first one to come."

Wang Erwa said arrogantly.

After saying that, regardless of the occasion, he took off his shoes and squatted on a chair.

"You kid..."

Seeing his look, Yang Jun was about to say something to him when he saw a dark shadow flash at the door of the side hall and someone walked in immediately.

"Lao Wang, I was the first one to come. I just went to pee and you got there first."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Li Tiezhu, Ji Demin, Li Lixin and others coming.

Upon hearing this, Wang Erwa continued to squat on the chair calmly.

"I think you're going to drink urine. Do you think I didn't see your car is right behind me? How can you be number one?"

"Old Wang, I'm going to kill you."

Li Tiezhu didn't care what the occasion was and thought it was at Yang Jun's house, so he started quarreling with Wang Erwa.

Seeing this, Ji Demin smiled and kicked each of them on the buttocks.

"Just shut up, don't embarrass Xiao Yang."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun smiled and took out a cigarette, letting each of them take one.

"Let them make a fuss. I'm happy today anyway."

Ji Demin took the cigarette and found a seat to sit down.

"Xiao Yang, this is a bit too much. We are honored guests after all. Why don't you go to the door to greet us?"

"That's right, Lao Yang, you are so rude."

Seeing this, other people agreed.

Hearing this, Yang Jun smiled and said, "You are of such a high rank that you deserve to be greeted by me personally."

"what!"

Everyone rolled their eyes at him.

"Since you got promoted, you no longer care about us brothers. Now you look down on us with your eyes."

"Yes, ever since I got promoted, I no longer attend parties or drink, and I just focus on making villains at home."

"Old Yang, isn't it time to have your son's full moon celebration some other day?"

These bastards don't care about the occasion when they make jokes and dare to say anything.

When Yang Jun heard this, he quickly raised his hands and surrendered.

"Brothers, for the sake of Cheng Zhi's engagement today, can you please give me some face?"

"I was wrong. I'll buy you a drink to make amends later."

"That's pretty much it."

Seeing this, everyone let him go.

"By the way, Lao Yang, when will your son's wedding be held? We are still waiting to attend the wedding." Li Lixin asked.

Yang Jun’s son Yang Chengdao has already obtained the marriage certificate, but has not yet held the wedding banquet.

Hearing this, Yang Jun sighed and said, "Don't worry, it won't be too late to hold the wedding after they graduate from college."

"Haha, let's hold the wedding and the grandson's full moon party at the same time, right?" Wang Erwa joked.

"Ha ha!"

The others laughed when they heard this.

"Damn Old Wang, you are talking about something irrelevant..."

Just as Yang Jun was about to curse, he saw Aunt Guo walking in hurriedly, and he quickly shut up.

"Jun'er, please go out and help me welcome the guests. There are too many people, and some of them I don't even know. Go and take a look."

Hearing this, Yang Jun frowned and said, "Aunt, I am a guest today?"

Upon hearing this, Aunt Guo rolled her eyes at him and then hit him lightly.

"What kind of guest are you? When did the Guo family and the Yang army not become one family? Hurry up."

Hearing this, Yang Jun smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

After saying that, Yang Jun turned around and said to the brothers: "Brothers, please sit down for a while, I will be back soon."

At this time, Ji Demin stood up and said, "Why are you sitting? Let's sit together."

"Yes, we will."

Seeing this, the others stood up and wanted to go with Yang Jun to greet the guests.

Seeing this, Yang Jun smiled.

"Okay, let's go together then."

Yang Jun understood their intention in doing so. First, they really regarded themselves as Yang Jun's brothers. Second, they wanted to use this opportunity to tell outsiders that they were Yang Jun's own people. Of course, the main factor was their stance.

Afterwards, Yang Jun and a group of people went to the gate to welcome the guests.

Aunt Guo was not idle either, and took the opportunity to stand next to Yang Jun.

She wanted to show the guests that their Guo family had not declined and that Yang Jun was the Guo family's backer.

"Mr. Qin, please come in."

"Mr. Gong, please come in."

Yang Jun stood there smiling and greeting the guests.

"Congratulations, big boss." "Congratulations, big boss."

The guests who came did not dare to put on airs. The fact that Yang Jun personally went out to greet them was already a great honor for them. Even if Yang Jun did not go out to greet them, they would not say anything. Instead, they felt that it was an incomparable honor to be able to attend Yang Jun's daughter's engagement party.

After all, Yang Jun is now a big leader, and there are many people who want to curry favor with him.

After standing for about an hour, Yang Jun's facial muscles were a little sore. He hadn't smiled like this for a long time.

Fortunately, at this time, the guests who were supposed to come arrived.

Then Yang Jun went to the yard.

The engagement banquet was held in the yard. There was a stage in the front and dozens of banquet tables on the lawn below. The guests were packed with people. Some people could not even sit at the table and had to sit on chairs.

Even so, they felt it was worth it.

After the engagement banquet began, as the host finished speaking, they, as parents, took the stage.

Yi Qiu Shui took Yang Jun's arm and walked to the stage very gracefully. On the Guo family's side, Aunt Guo, supported by Ding Qiunan, also slowly walked onto the stage.

The two families went on stage in two directions and then met in the middle of the stage. Yang Chengzhi and Guo Chang stood in the middle, and the adults on both sides stood beside them, facing the guests.

With the host's instructions, the marriage was settled.

Then, the parents of both sides gave speeches.

The first person to speak was Aunt Guo.

She stood trembling in the middle of the stage, pushed away Ding Qiunan who was supporting her, and said excitedly while holding the microphone,

"Thank you to all the guests, thank you to all the old friends, thank you to all the leaders..."

Aunt Guo was so excited that she almost forgot the words several times. Fortunately, Ding Qiunan reminded her and she did not lose her composure.

At this moment, she was so excited. Looking at the crowd of visitors below, it was as if she had found back the glory she had lost in the past, as if she saw the glory when Guo Caodi was alive. The Guo family needed this marriage so much. They had to find a strong backer, and that person was the Yang family, that was Yang Jun.

Aunt Guo spoke very slowly. She recounted how she met Yang Jun, how he became her adopted son-in-law, and how their two families had gotten along over the past twenty years. There was not a single superfluous word in the whole story, and every sentence got to the point. Through these words and phrases, she told everyone that Yang Jun and the Guo family were one family, and the two families were inseparable, with each being part of the other.

After the speech, there was warm applause from the audience.

Then it was Yang Jun's turn to speak.

Yang Jun was originally sitting behind the stage. When he heard the host asking him to speak, he patted Yi Qiu Shui's hand, and then the couple walked to the front desk.

"Clap clap clap!"

Before Yang Jun spoke, there was a prolonged applause from the audience, which lasted for almost a minute.

"Thank you!"

Yang Jun and Yi Qiu Shui bowed to express their gratitude.

After straightening up, Yang Jun glanced at everyone, still maintaining his usual smile on his face.

"There's nothing much to say. The children are engaged, and I'm very happy as a father. I hope you can take care of the children for my sake. I'm very grateful."

After saying this, Yang Jun and the other man bowed again to express their gratitude.

"Clap clap clap!"

There was another round of thunderous applause.

Yang Jun didn't say much, then handed the microphone to the host and left.

The engagement between the Yang and Guo families has already explained everything, and there is no need to elaborate. I believe that those smart people know what to do. If there are really those who are blind, he doesn't mind letting them disappear into ashes.

After the engagement ceremony, Yang Jun came down and drank with them one by one.

No matter which table Yang Jun walked to, everyone at that table stood up to congratulate him.

Yang Jun is different from before. He now plays a vital role. His every word and action is related to their future. These people try their best to curry favor with Yang Jun as much as possible.

Yang Jun was also very happy today. Although today was just an engagement banquet, it allowed him to experience the feeling of marrying off his daughter in advance.

How should I put it? I feel weird in my heart. I’m not very happy. Instead, I feel a little reluctant.

Yang Jun didn't know whether he would be able to really bear to give up his daughter when the day came for her to get married.

After a round of toasts, Yang Jun was already slightly drunk.

He was happy today and did not use the space, so he drank a few more glasses. Since he had the space, his alcohol tolerance has dropped sharply. Now he can drink at most two taels of alcohol, and this is when he is restrained.

At this time, a servant hurriedly ran to Ding Qiunan and whispered something.

After hearing this, Ding Qiunan walked straight towards Yang Jun.

"Brother-in-law, there's a guest at the door, and he said he was looking for you."

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

"Then let him in. Everyone who comes is a guest. There is no reason to keep a guest outside."

Ding Qiunan: "But the guest didn't come in, and said he wanted you to leave."

Yang Jun frowned when he heard this.

"Who is it that is so arrogant that he dares to ask Old Yang to go out to greet him?" Yi Qiu Shui said dissatisfiedly.

Looking across the entire country, there is really no one who dares to yell at Yang Jun.

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun asked, "What's the guest's name?"

"I think he has the same last name as you, Yang... Yang what's that?"

Ding Qiunan couldn't remember his name, so he turned around and wanted to ask the little man.

"Is your name Yang Tang?" Yang Jun reminded.

"Yes, his name is Yang Tang."

At this time, the little man next to him also nodded in agreement.

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun slapped his thigh hard.

"You guys stay with the guests first, I'll go see him."

He is the only one in this world who can make him go out and greet her in person.

When I arrived at the door, I saw Yang Tang squatting on the curb outside the gate. He looked exhausted, and it was estimated that he had just got off the train and came straight here.

Yang Jun then remembered that he had talked to him on the phone some time ago and mentioned that his daughter was going to get engaged. He didn't expect that he still remembered it.

"dad."

Yang Jun shouted, and then hurried forward.

Every time he saw his father, he always felt inexplicably close to him.

"But... I dare not call you that."

When Yang Tang heard Yang Jun calling him Dad, his face turned pale with fright and he became panic-stricken.

Fortunately, this was not the first time this happened. Yang Jun always called him "Dad" for no apparent reason, which made him scared.

He couldn't even imagine having a big boss call him dad.

Yang Jun heard this but did not explain. Some things just need to be clear in one's heart.

"Now that you're here, why don't you go in?"

Yang Jun picked up his bag and prepared to take him in.

Seeing this, Yang Tang refused to go in no matter what.

"I won't go in."

"The guests who came today all drove here in cars. They must be important people. I won't go in and embarrass you."

After that, he pointed at the bag in Yang Jun's hand and said, "This is a little local specialty from my hometown. Just consider it a gift. Don't despise it."

Then, he glanced at the yard and said with a smile, "I have participated in the child's engagement ceremony. I... I will go back now."

After saying that, I wanted to leave.

Yang Jun grabbed him, put his arm around his neck and said,
"Why are you leaving? You want to leave right after you got here?"

"You finally came here, I'll show you your granddaughter and grandson-in-law."
