Siheyuan: Domineering life

This is an age full of money and interests, but also an age full of tests of human nature.

Human nature is selfish. People can do anything for their own benefit. For their own selfish desires, all kinds of things that harm others and benefit themselves happen frequently. In the face of money and power, no one can withstand the test.

In order to prevent unpredictable things from happening in the future, Yang Jun must be fully prepared. He is not short of money anyway, and he wants to get everything that exists in this world. He has special subordinates to help him collect various things in the world, and he must get all new things as long as they appear in this world. He has no other ideas but to keep himself and his family alive, and to keep human civilization going.

This is a unique sense of security for a time traveler, and even he is no exception.

After twenty years of reform and innovation, his family business is now completely on the right track and running in a healthy manner, with at least hundreds of billions of dollars in revenue each year. Remember, it is still the 1990s. If the economy develops even more explosively after the next century, his family wealth will increase exponentially.

Anyway, he has plenty of money, so he will buy everything in the world.

He possesses an immortal physique and a system that defies all heaven. He is destined to become a trendsetter or master of this era.

So, this is his era.

That day, Yang Tang came to visit.

"came back?"

Seeing Yang Tang coming back, Yang Jun was happy from the bottom of his heart and quickly asked people to prepare wine and food.

This was his father in his previous life. Even after so many years, he was still delighted when he saw him. Only in front of his father could he regain his sense of security.

"I'm back, big boss."

While talking with a smile, Yang Tang took out the local specialties he brought back from his hometown from his bag. It seemed that he had not returned home yet and came directly here.

"I've told you so many times, don't call me Big Boss."

Yang Jun gave him a reproachful look and said, "Call me Xiao Yang."

"Good good."

Although Yang Tang agreed verbally, he never dared to call him Xiao Yang.

The senior leaders were close to him and didn't treat him as an outsider, but he knew his own limitations and couldn't be disrespectful.

He didn't know that he was Yang Jun's father in his previous life, so he was very cautious in everything he did.

"Is everything okay at home?" Yang Jun asked.

Yang Tang brought him pancakes and pickles from his hometown. While rolling the pancakes, he asked about his family's situation.

My grandfather was critically ill this time, so my father went home to prepare for his funeral.

"Um……"

Yang Tang hesitated for a moment, his face showing sadness, and said, "Father is gone. I just buried him the day before yesterday."

When Yang Jun heard this, his heart skipped a beat, but he looked calm.

He didn't have much impression of his grandfather in his previous life. His grandfather died when he was two or three years old in the previous generation, so he didn't have much impression of him. In addition, his grandfather favored his third uncle, so he didn't have a good impression of his grandfather and was not very close to him.

Logically speaking, since his grandfather was seriously ill this time, he should have gone back to see him, but he racked his brains but could not think of any picture of his grandfather, so he did not go.

"Oh, my condolences." Yang Jun just said lightly.

Yang Tang didn't say anything. He seemed to have expected Yang Jun's reaction. From their daily interactions, Yang Jun never mentioned anyone except his family, so whatever others did was what he should do.

"Thank you, great leader."

Seeing Yang Jun rolling his eyes, Yang Tang quickly smiled and said, "No matter what, I have to thank you."

The two chatted while eating pancakes from their hometown.

"They didn't make things difficult for you when you went back this time, right?" Yang Jun.

"Um...no."

When Yang Jun heard Yang Tang hesitate, he knew it was impossible not to make things difficult for him.

He knew that family too well; it was a bunch of vampires and ungrateful people. His father in his previous life was squeezed dry of his last drop of blood by them. Even though he had sent people to teach his third uncle a lesson last time, he still couldn't change his nature.

"Hmph!" Yang Jun snorted coldly.

Seeing Yang Jun's stern face, Yang Tang quickly explained: "It's nothing more than some money matters. It's not a big deal to me."

"My father is gone now, and the only place I miss is gone too. From now on, I will not live for anyone but my family."

Hearing this, Yang Jun rolled his eyes: "I hope so."

"I promised the leader that I would do what I said."

Yang Jun corrected Yang Tang many times for calling himself the big boss, but Yang Tang still refused to change. Later, Yang Jun just let him do what he wanted.

At this time, the kitchen staff brought the banquet to the air-conditioned room by the river.

After the banquet was set up, Yang Jun sent everyone out.

"Boss, I'd like to toast you." Yang Tang raised his glass.

"Yeah, done."

The two clinked their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.

"Feel free to do what you want."

Yang Jun pointed at the table full of food.

"Okay, I won't be shy."

Yang Tang put down the pancake he had not finished and concentrated on eating the food. The dishes at Yang Jun's mansion were all made by famous chefs and were not easy to taste. Compared to pancakes, he loved the delicacies on the table more.

But Yang Jun was different. Having been used to eating delicacies from land and sea, he wanted to taste the specialties of his hometown.

"Is your third child relatively honest?" Yang Jun asked while eating pancakes, raising his eyebrows.

"Hmm... much more honest."

After saying that, he muttered, "How can I not be honest after you broke my leg?"

"Do you mean to blame me?" Yang Jun raised his eyebrows.

"I don't mean to blame you. I just think you were too harsh. A broken leg has seriously affected his life."

"So you still mean I'm to blame?"

"No……"

……

Yang Tang stayed with him for about three or four hours before leaving.

Since all his family members were traveling, he was the only one left in the huge house. He felt empty inside. This was the only time in all those years that he felt lonely away from his family. It was an uncomfortable feeling, he felt lonely and panicky.

He didn't dare to imagine what it would be like decades or hundreds of years later when his loved ones left him one by one. He probably thought the scene then would be the same as what he felt now.

He felt the loneliness and desolation in advance, and sometimes he really felt that immortality was not a good thing, and even a curse.

It was not until the lights came on that Yang Jun returned to the backyard.

Looking at the dark backyard, with no lights on in any of the yards, that feeling of loneliness came over me again.

"Hey."

Yang Jun sighed and went to the study.

Since his family is not around, it doesn't matter where he lives.

This night is destined to be a lonely and difficult night.

The next day, Yang Jun woke up.

After spending the whole night sleeping on the sofa in the study, he felt exhausted and decided to sleep in bed from now on.

He washed up and took a shower first, then went to the restaurant for dinner.

When he arrived at the restaurant, he was stunned.

"Why are you back?" Yang Jun asked.

"Can't I come back for a surprise inspection?" Yi Qiu Shui sat in front of the dining table, folded her arms, and looked at him with a teasing expression.

She looked at Yang Jun's wet hair and joked, "Looking at you, it seems that you haven't rested well these two days."

Yang Jun rolled his eyes when he heard this.

"With all of you gone, can I rest alone?"

He is a carnivore and cannot live without meat for every meal. It would be strange if he could have a good rest without so many women around him.

"Are you satisfied with these?"

Yang Jun rolled his eyes, then sat down to eat.

"I don't have anything to be satisfied or dissatisfied with, as long as you are satisfied."

Yi Qiushui squinted at him and said, "It's not pleasant to sleep in the study, right?"

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

"You already know everything, but you're still asking?"

"I'm just curious, why do you choose to sleep in the study instead of the bedroom?"

"I am happy with it, what's your business?"

After saying that, he glared at Yi Qiushui and said, "When did you come back? Why didn't you come to accompany me when you came back?"

"Look at your behavior. You'll die if you don't touch a woman for a day."

After that, Yi Qiushui continued, "I came back at five in the morning this morning. I heard from the people downstairs that you slept in the study, so I didn't go over."

"Well, why didn't you come back earlier?"

Yang Jun muttered, then asked: "Why did you come back suddenly this time?"

He felt that Yi Qiushui must have some urgent matter when she suddenly came back, not just a surprise inspection as she said, to see if he had brought any women home or something.
"Tomorrow is Aunt Guo's 27th day. Tianyue, Qiunan and I are back to burn paper. We have to go back tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun stood there in a daze.

Just to burn 27th paper for Aunt Guo, he rushed back from another place, and then had to rush back again after burning the paper?

Yi Qiushui seemed to see what Yang Jun was thinking and said, "I am the adopted daughter of the Guo family. My adoptive parents have been very kind to me. I can't fail to be filial, right?"

"Did I mean that?"

Yang Jun rolled his eyes at her and said, "Of course I won't stop you from fulfilling your filial duties, but I feel bad that you have to run back and forth so hard."

"What's so hard about it? I don't have much else now but a lot of time. Anyway, I will be running around doing trivial things like this for the rest of my life."

"That's true. You are now free from official duties and less than fifty years old. You are already enjoying your retirement life at such a young age."

Yang Jun sighed and said, "I really envy you. When can I enjoy the life you have now?"

Yi Qiushui: "Come on, what's the difference between your current living situation and retirement?"

"I stay at home every day, drinking tea, fishing or just hanging out. Who can be as relaxed as you?"

"What do you know? I'm working from home." Yang Jun rolled his eyes at him.

"Yes, yes, drinking tea, fishing and playing chess are your jobs."

"..."

Then, breakfast was served and the two ate while chatting.

The family is traveling in Henan now. Everything is fine. Yi Qiu Shui will go to Guo's house after breakfast, and then go with Guo Tianyue and Ding Qiunan to pay homage to Aunt Guo. After that, they will fly to Henan again early tomorrow morning to continue their trip.

After breakfast, Yi Qiu Shui packed up and went to Guo's house.

After she left, Yang Jun was the only one left at home again. Then, Yang Jun went to the river with his hands behind his back.

When they arrived at the glass room, Sun Zhaocai and Sha Zhu had already turned on the air conditioner and were eating various fruits in big mouthfuls.

"Didn't you eat in the morning?"

Seeing the way they ate, Yang Jun rolled his eyes.

"I ate it."

Sha Zhu didn't know that Yang Jun was speaking in a sarcastic way. He ate a piece of iced watermelon and said nonchalantly, "I ate twenty-five meat buns, two fried dough sticks, and five bowls of porridge... Oh, and three sesame balls."

"Eat so much?"

Hearing this, Yang Jun rolled his eyes and muttered quietly, "What a good-for-nothing."

"Uncle Yang is right, Shazhu is just a good-for-nothing." Sun Zhaocai laughed while eating grapes.

"You too." Yang Jun said unhappily, "You are covered in hair and you call others old monsters."

"Hehe, I'm different from Shazhu." Sun Zhaocai said with a smile: "I didn't have breakfast this morning, so I came here on an empty stomach."

"Guess whether I believe it or not?" Yang Jun rolled his eyes.

These guys never mistreat their stomachs. They always skip one of the three meals a day. Strictly speaking, there is no such thing as a few meals for them, because they eat almost every moment of the day, 24 hours a day, and they even recite the menu when they sleep.

"I don't know whether you believe it or not, but I believe it anyway."

Sun Zhaocai rubbed his round belly and said, "Anyway, I'm really hungry now."

"Me too." Sha Zhu agreed.

"Good-for-nothings." Yang Jun rolled his eyes and said, "Two good-for-nothings."

"hey-hey."

Afterwards, Yang Jun lay down on his rattan chair, put his hands behind his head, stared at the scorching sun outside, and entered a state of emptiness.

Over the years, he has become attached to this rattan chair. As long as he lies on this chair, he will feel extremely relaxed. Only at this time can he truly calm down and think about things calmly.

"Uncle Yang, I seem to have seen my aunt this morning. Is she back?" Sun Zhaocai asked.

"Ah."

Yang Jun responded lightly.

"Then you won't be accompanying your aunt today?"

"No time."

When Sun Zhaocai heard this, his face twitched.

You lie at home every day and still say you don’t have time?

However, he did not dare to interfere in Yang Jun's affairs.

"Oh, are you going out today?" Sun Zhaocai asked again.

Yang Jun was a little annoyed by the question and said unhappily: "Why are you asking these questions?"

Sun Zhaocai heard this and laughed, "If you don't want to go out, let's roast a duck to satisfy our cravings."

"Look how hot it is. It would be unreasonable not to eat some roast duck."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun rolled his eyes at him in annoyance.

"If you want to eat it, go get it yourself and don't bother me."

"Okay, I've been waiting for you to say that."

There are probably no guards in the world who are more leisurely than these two. Following Yang Jun, not only can they have all kinds of delicious food to eat, but they also have relative freedom. Yang Jun also pampers them and never demands too much from them. It can even be said that he is very indulgent towards them.

"You can't drink." Yang Jun reminded when he saw this.

"Yes, you are."

Afterwards, the two of them ran off to get the roast duck. (End of this chapter)
