Siheyuan: Domineering life

Chapter 1390 New Year’s greetings
New Year's Eve.

Yang Jun got up early in the morning. When he opened the door, he saw a vast expanse of white outside.

It snowed all night last night. The snow on the ground is very deep, already up to the ankles. Now there are still sparse snowflakes floating in the sky.

Luo Xiaojun and a group of guards were cleaning the snow in the yard.

It is the end of the year and most of the nannies are on vacation. There is a shortage of manpower, so we have to transfer people from the front yard to clean the snow in the back yard. All of this has been agreed by Yang Qingxiang.

"Uncle Master, Happy New Year."

Seeing Yang Jun coming out, Luo Xiaojun and others put down their tools and came over to wish Yang Jun a happy new year.

"Happy New Year to Master Uncle. I wish him good health and all the best."

Luo Xiaojun bowed and wished Yang Jun a happy new year.

Seeing this, the other guards said in unison: "May the great leader have a happy and prosperous year after year."

"Okay, okay, happy new year everyone."

Yang Jun greeted with a smile.

He felt his pocket; it was empty.

Only then did I remember that I didn't bring any red envelopes with me.

In fact, the red envelopes had been prepared long ago, but he thought he would have to wait until after breakfast to start greeting people, so he didn't bring them with him.

"Well...after everyone is done, I'll go see you in the front yard."

When everyone saw Yang Jun touching his pocket, they knew he had forgotten to bring the red envelope.

Everyone laughed when they saw this.

Over the years, Yang Jun would give them a big red envelope every Chinese New Year, and he never stopped doing so. So, they were not afraid that Yang Jun would default on his debt this time.

"Okay, this place is almost cleaned up."

Luo Xiaojun smiled and said, "Uncle Master, we'll go back to the front yard first. Don't forget to come after breakfast."

"I can't forget you, I can't forget you. I'll go see you after breakfast." Yang Jun smiled and waved his hand, letting them leave.

Afterwards, everyone quickly swept the road and then carried their tools to the front yard.

After watching them leave, Yang Jun turned around and went to the restaurant.

As soon as I arrived at the restaurant, I heard a group of children crying.

Yang Qingxiang, Nalan Qingyun, Meng Wenya and Nini were sitting there, coaxing their children.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Who bullied my little baby?" Yang Jun asked.

When Yang Qingxiang heard this, she rolled her eyes at him.

"Who dares to bully you, little baby?"

"Then why are you crying? And each one is crying louder than the other, like they are competing with each other."

"Who knows? It's not peaceful this early in the morning."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun took a closer look at the children and checked their body temperature with his forehead.

"Is he going to get sick?"

"No, Dr. Cui came to see me this morning and found no problems."

At this time, Meng Wenya interrupted and said, "Besides, even if they are sick, we can't let all four children get sick at the same time, right?"

"I think they are just idle and think crying is a competition."

Yang Jun smiled after hearing this.

"As long as they are not sick, they can cry and play as they please."

Afterwards, Yang Jun stopped caring about this matter, looked towards the kitchen, and asked, "When will dinner be served?"

"Now that you're here, we can have dinner."

After saying that, Yang Qingxiang rolled her eyes at him.

If Yang Jun doesn’t come, who would dare to start the meal?

"Hey, let's eat."

Then the nanny started to bring the dumplings.

Today is New Year's Eve, and every family eats dumplings, and the Yang family is no exception.

There are seven or eight kinds of dumplings, including pork and green onion, wine and vegetables and eggs, beef dumplings, mutton dumplings...

Each type comes in a full plate, and everyone can eat whatever filling they like.

Perhaps because they smelled the fragrance of the dumplings, the four children stopped crying and soon fell asleep.

Several people handed the child to the nanny behind them and started to eat at the table.

Nini shook her sore arms and complained, "I'm so tired. I breastfed seven or eight times last night and didn't sleep well the whole night. Now my eyelids are fighting."

"You're still considered lucky. My baby wakes up more than ten times every night. It's so tiring that I'm about to collapse." Nalan Qingyun agreed.

At this time, Yang Qingxiang interrupted and said, "You deserve to be tired. Who told you to sleep with the child?"

"Look at me. As soon as my child was born, I gave him a separate bed. I have cultivated his independent living habits since he was young. Every night, all he needs is the nanny to prepare milk powder. Basically, I, as a mother, don't have to worry about anything."

"You have many children, so you have experience. Unlike Nini and Qingyun, they are the first babies, so they are not very precious." Meng Wenya smiled, paused for a moment, and then said: "Although I am also a mother of two children, I can't let such a young child sleep alone."

"That's why you are tired." Yang Qingxiang said.

At this time, Yang Jun spoke.

"Haha, I remember when you first became successful, you loved me more than anyone else. You held me in your arms when I ate or slept, and even took me to the toilet and took a bath. You didn't seem to be relaxed at that time."

"I was young and ignorant at that time, I...of course I was tired."

After being exposed by Yang Jun, Yang Qingxiang's face turned as red as an apple, making people salivate.

"You have so many children, so you have experience."

After Yang Jun finished speaking, he said to Nini and Nalan Qingyun: "You won't be so tired after you have your second child."

"I hope so." Nini and Nalan Qingyun.

"Well, today's dumplings are really delicious, especially the ones with lamb and fennel filling." Meng Wenya said while eating.

"is it?"

After hearing this, everyone reached out to get the dumplings stuffed with mutton and fennel.

Subconsciously, everyone thinks that dumplings stuffed with mutton must have a strong smell. Unexpectedly, after taking a bite, they did not smell the strong smell at all. Instead, they felt that they could not stop eating.

The chefs in Yang Jun's family are all senior chefs, who were hired at huge expense. Their skills are naturally impeccable. They can make dumplings stuffed with mutton without even the slightest smell. Their level is really impeccable.

"Well, it's really good. Sister Wang's cooking skills are getting better and better." Yang Jun said.

"That's right. I will give Sister Wang a red envelope later." Yang Qingxiang said.

"The dumplings are good, but I always feel like something is missing." Nini said at this time.

"You know what, if Nini hadn't mentioned it, I really wouldn't have noticed." Yang Qingxiang said, "It seems that the house is not as lively as before."

"Hey, who said it wasn't you? Sister Qiushui took the whole family to Hainan for a trip, and it suddenly felt a lot quieter, and the New Year atmosphere felt a lot weaker."

"So," Yang Jun interrupted, "it's more fun with more people."

After hearing this, several people looked at each other as if they had realized something, and then looked at Yang Jun at the same time.

"Lao Yang, if you have other women outside, you can bring them home. We have no objection anyway."

"Yes, we have no objection. One more girl won't make any difference."

"That's right, bring her back. It's Chinese New Year, and it's not right to let her spend the New Year alone outside."

Listening to the four of them chattering non-stop, Yang Jun felt a little overwhelmed.

"Can we have a good New Year?"

Yang Jun rolled his eyes: "Don't say I don't have it. Even if I have a woman outside, it's not your turn to make the decisions in this family, right?"

"What's the point of you agreeing or not? It mainly depends on your sister Qiu Shui." After hearing this, several people blinked their eyes continuously, and the smiles on their lips could hardly be suppressed.

"It's okay. As long as you take her home, we will intercede for you with Sister Qiu Shui. I believe she will accept her." Yang Qingxiang.

"That's right. One more person won't make much difference. Our family can afford to keep her, so we should just bring her home." Meng Wenya.

"..."

Several women started to make sarcastic remarks again.

Even if Yang Jun was a fool, he could tell that they were speaking in a sarcastic way.

In the past, Yang Jun could believe what they said. After all, they were also concubines and they could understand the helplessness of being women. But as time went by, they all gave birth to children for Yang Jun and became part of this family. As vested interests, how could they allow Yang Jun to bring other women in?

Although the Yang family has a large business, they have many children. More people means more shares. They don't want the business to be divided up by others. When it comes to other women, their interests are the same.

"No."

Yang Jun said with a straight face: "Stop nagging me and worrying about my affairs. Instead, think about how to expand the Yang family."

The more this happened, the more Yang Jun couldn't admit that he had a woman outside.

In fact, even if he doesn't admit it, everyone knows that he must have other women outside, but he just doesn't want to say it out loud.

"I haven't worked hard enough. I have given birth to four children for you." Yang Qingxiang muttered.

"It's none of your business, let's talk about them." Yang Jun rolled his eyes at her.

"I also gave birth to two." Meng Wenya muttered.

"Give me two more." Yang Jun said unhappily.

Meng Wenya was speechless.

After saying that, Yang Jun looked at Nini and Nalan Qingyun again and said with a straight face, "You too."

After hearing this, the women just ate their dumplings in silence.

Even if Yang Jun didn't urge them, they would still think that they should have more children. Before, there were few people in the family, and they thought that one child was enough. As the children of the Yang family grew up and began to divide the family property, their ideas changed.

In the Yang family, the fewer children there are, the less property they get; the older the children, the more property they get; if there are no children, they get nothing. So, they gradually understand the benefits of having many children. Just like the entire family, the more children the better. As long as there is a promising child, he can lead the entire family to progress.

The same is true for nuclear families.

After breakfast.

Yang Jun went to the front yard carrying a box of red envelopes.

The front yard was already crowded with people. Yang Anbang, Yang Anguo and Ma Juzi, as well as Yang Jun's godsons and daughters and their family members and children, more than a hundred people had been waiting there.

Yang Jun glanced at the crowd and found that Guo Caodi's children were also there.

"Uncle Yang, Happy New Year."

"Godfather, Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year, Grandpa Gan."

"Brother-in-law, Happy New Year."

"Uncle Yang, Happy New Year."

"..."

Yang Jun appeared in the front yard and everyone gathered to wish him a happy new year.

When you have the power to move the whole world, the earth will revolve around you.

There is no doubt that Yang Jun is this person. These people depend on Yang Jun for their livelihood. Their current status and fame are all brought by Yang Jun.

Naturally, they would do everything they could to curry his favor.

"Okay, okay, happy new year everyone."

It was still snowing outside, and Yang Jun invited everyone into the living room.

The living room was too small to accommodate so many people, so some people had to stand under the eaves outside.

Yang Jun sat in the middle chair of the living room and began to accept New Year greetings from everyone.

There was an empty chair next to it, which was previously occupied by Yi Qiu Shui. She would sit next to it during New Year's greetings in previous years. Now she has gone to travel in the south, and this seat is only occupied by Yang Jun.

"Brother, Happy New Year."

The first person to pay New Year's greetings was Yang Anbang. As the oldest person in the Yang family besides Yang Jun, he should be the first to pay New Year's greetings.

"I wish you a bright future and a bright future."

"Okay, okay, you too, do a good job."

Yang Jun took a red envelope from the box and handed it to him.

"Thank you, brother."

After Yang Anbang finished his New Year greetings, it was Yang Anguo's turn.

"Brother, Happy New Year! I wish you evergreen and eternal youth."

"You look much older than me." Yang Jun handed him a red envelope with a smile.

"Hey, brother, you don't look old at all."

Then, it was Ma Juzi's turn to pay New Year's greetings.

Next came the younger sisters Yangmei, Yangliu, and Yangyu, and then the younger generations came to pay New Year's greetings.

The first person to pay New Year's greetings was Yang Jun's godson Shi Tou. This guy is doing the best now. He is also the first godson Yang Jun adopted and the leader among the younger generation.

After he said a series of instructions, the boys behind him also sent their New Year greetings.

Afterwards, it was Sun Zhaocai, Yang Chengwu and other children who came to pay New Year's greetings. Among the group of people, they were the latest and youngest generation. They were the pioneers who would lead the trends in the future and they were also the best. Yang Jun saw the future in them. The future belonged to them. He believed that they would leave a mark in the pages of history.

After about an hour of New Year's greetings, Yang Jun finally felt relaxed.

After paying New Year's greetings, these people started to play on their own. Some gathered together to chat, talking about their experiences and insights in the past year, some gathered together to play cards and gamble, and some started to fight and compete with each other in punching and kicking.

Yang Jun chatted with them for a while, then went to the front yard carrying the box containing the red envelopes.

Find Luo Xiaojun and ask him to distribute these red envelopes.

The red envelope was not big, just a token of his appreciation. In fact, he had already given them benefits individually.

Yang Jun never treats the people around him unfairly, especially those who protect him at all times.

Afterwards, Yang Jun chatted with them for a while, encouraging and comforting them.

When I was about to go back, I heard someone calling me.

"dad."

When Yang Jun heard this, he looked back.

The person who came was none other than his son Yang Chengdao.

"Enlightenment?"

Seeing his son, Yang Jun was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Didn't you go to Hainan with your mother?"

“I went, but I came back.”

Yang Chengdao smiled and said, "My mother was afraid that you would be lonely at home, so she asked me to come back to accompany you."

"Why am I lonely? I'm not alone at home..."

"My mother also asked me to come back and look after her..."

Yang Chengdao looked at Yang Jun with a smile on his face. He didn't say what he was looking at, but he believed that Yang Jun knew what he meant.

"You have no respect for your elders. Do you think you can make up stories about your aunt?" Yang Jun said with a straight face.

"Hey, I'm just joking with you, don't be angry."

Seeing that Yang Jun was angry, Yang Chengdao quickly said, "I came back this time mainly to deal with business matters."
