Siheyuan: Domineering life

In the evening, after dinner, Yang Jun went to Meng Wenya's yard.

As soon as I entered the yard, I saw Yang Chengyun kneeling in the middle of the yard.

Yang Jun glanced at him, then walked into the living room with his hands behind his back.

After he asked Sun Zhaocai to bring the boy back from school, his mother Meng Wenya made him kneel in the middle of the yard. Yang Jun knew what Meng Wenya was thinking. She hoped that this would make her son suffer less. At least Yang Jun didn't look so angry.

"Old Yang, have some tea."

Meng Wenya seemed to know that Yang Jun was coming and had prepared tea early.

Yang Jun took the tea and took a sip.

"Go wash up."

"Ah?" Meng Wenya was stunned for a moment, then blushed and said, "My son is still kneeling in the yard."

"So what?" Yang Jun glared and said, "I'll deal with him after I finish my work."

"Which one is the real business?" Meng Wenya muttered softly.

However, in order to allow Yang Jun to be lenient with her son later, she could only go along with him for now.

Then she grabbed a change of clothes and went to the bathroom.

Yang Jun was sitting in the living room drinking tea, looking at his son kneeling in the yard outside. Yang Chengyun seemed to know that he could not avoid the beating today, so he became very well-behaved, kneeling there with his head down, not moving a muscle.

Seeing that his father had been in there for a while without any movement, he couldn't help but look up and glance inside. Suddenly, his eyes met Yang Jun's. He was so scared that his whole body trembled and he quickly lowered his head.

Yang Jun sat there with his legs crossed, holding a teacup in his hand, staring at him with a serious expression.

About ten minutes later, Meng Wenya came out with wet hair.

"I've washed it, you go and wash it."

After hearing this, Yang Jun stood up and walked out. When he reached the door, he put his hands behind his back and looked at Yang Chengyun.

When Yang Chengyun heard the footsteps, he looked up subconsciously, and suddenly met Yang Jun's eyes again. He was so scared that his body shook, and he lowered his head again in just a moment.

Meng Wenya was worried that Yang Jun would beat the child in a rage, so she followed him closely.

"Old Yang, go take a shower." Meng Wenya tugged at his sleeve and said in a low voice.

Yang Jun said nothing and went into the inner room with his hands behind his back.

……

An hour later.

Yang Jun went to the bathroom to take a shower and returned to the living room.

"Come in."

Yang Jun shouted, and Yang Chengyun in the yard was so scared that he tilted his body. When he realized that his father was calling him, he immediately crawled in.

Don't be fooled by his fearless appearance outside, but when he sees Yang Jun, he is like a mouse seeing a cat, and his natural blood suppresses him.

"Dad, I was wrong. I was really wrong."

Before Yang Jun could speak, Yang Chengyun knelt on the ground again and admitted his mistake.

Suddenly, the bedroom door opened, and Meng Wenya secretly opened it a crack and looked into the living room.

Yang Jun had already told her not to come out when educating the children, so she could only hide in the bedroom and eavesdrop.

"Where is wrong?"

Yang Jun lit a cigarette and smoked leisurely.

Afterwards, a cigarette is as good as being a living god. This is a necessary process for every sage at all times.

"I shouldn't have skipped school, I shouldn't have fought, I shouldn't have gone to the game hall..."

Yang Chengyun knelt on the ground and told everything directly.

He also knew why he was kneeling here today. If it were any other time, he would at most just scold him a few words, but this time was different. He actually brought two trucks of people to fight with the gangsters, so the nature of the fight had changed.

To put it mildly, this is called a fight; to put it more seriously, it is called a gunfight.

"anything else?"

As a person in a higher position, Yang Jun has his own way of controlling people. He said nothing and let you speak for yourself. This is a typical "self-defense." In other words, the more you speak, the more you expose.

This move worked for him every time.

"I shouldn't have led people to fight with the punks."

Yang Chengyun cried, "Dad, I really know I was wrong. I won't do it again next time."

After hearing this, Yang Jun realized that he couldn't trick anyone anymore, and that this was all his son's fault.

"Where are you from?"

Yang Jun exhaled smoke and stared at him with blurry eyes.

"I……"

Yang Chengyun hesitated for a moment, then replied: "Most of them are my good friends, and some of them are hired by me."

Yang Chengyun has a good family background, a lot of pocket money, and many people follow him, so he thinks this excuse is justifiable.

"Tell the truth." Yang Jun said in a deep voice.

“I really paid for it.”

Yang Chengyun insisted.

Little did he know that his answer just exposed the origins of these people. Why didn't he deny that these were his brothers, but instead emphasized that these people were invited by him?

It is true that the person is trying to cover up his crime by not asking for the truth.

"I'll give you another chance. Where do these people come from?" Yang Jun.

"I paid for him to come." Yang Chengyun said again.

After hearing this, Yang Jun showed a hint of relief in his eyes.

This son is not completely useless. At least he is loyal and did not betray Yang Chengwu. If he confessed that these people were lent to him by Yang Chengwu, he would be disappointed.

It's not scary that a son has no future, what's scary is that he has no backbone. Fortunately, Yang Chengyun is very loyal and did not betray his brother, which makes Yang Jun very relieved.

"You can skip the beating today." Yang Jun said suddenly.

Since his son is not cut out for studying, he will not force him to study. If studying is not feasible, then he will arrange another path for his son.

Upon hearing this, Yang Chengyun opened his eyes wide and looked at his father in disbelief.

Under normal circumstances, even the smallest mistake would result in punishment, with the worst being a scolding and eating fried pork with bamboo shoots. He didn't expect that his father would let him go even though he made such a big mistake this time. He felt a little bit unbelievable.

"dad……"

Yang Chengyun shouted, trying to see if he had heard it wrong.

Meng Wenya, who was hiding in the room and eavesdropping, was also stunned for a moment. What she had been worried about finally came true. At this moment, she wanted to come out and tell her son, your dad is not going to punish you, you should get up quickly.

But she can't.

She knew in her heart that once she went out, Yang Jun might change his mind.

She could only hide behind the door and eavesdrop.

"Dad." Yang Chengyun called again.

After hearing this, Yang Jun sighed, waved his hand, and said, "Get up and talk."

This time Yang Chengyun heard it right. Not only did his father not punish him, he also let him stand up and speak. He felt like he didn't know his father anymore.

"Thank you dad."

Yang Chengyun stood up and stood there respectfully.

"Do you know that I knew you were lying but didn't punish you?"

Yang Jun changed his expression and spoke to him in a gentle tone.

When Yang Chengyun heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he realized that his father had seen through his lie.

His father did not play by the rules, which made him panic and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

"I don't know." "Then let me put it another way. Why don't you betray your fifth brother? If you tell me about your fifth brother, maybe I won't punish you."

"How could I betray my fifth brother..." Yang Chengyun suddenly became like a deflated ball, and immediately whispered obediently: Dad, do you already know?

"What do you think?" Yang Jun asked back.

When Yang Chengyun heard this, he immediately lowered his head.

"Dad, I was wrong."

The son wanted to continue speaking, but was interrupted by him raising his hand.

"There's nothing right or wrong, it's just that everyone has a different perspective."

After a slight pause, Yang Jun continued, "Living in a family like ours, I can't always educate my children like ordinary people, studying hard, not fighting, and not getting into trouble."

"You are at the top of the food chain. You are a wolf. You are destined to eat meat in this life. If I raise you like a sheep, that would be truly harmful to you."

"but……"

At this point, Yang Jun paused for a moment, and then continued, "But there should be a limit to getting into trouble. You can't do things based on your own temper, and you can't be lawless like your fifth uncle. If you really get into a big trouble, I can't protect you, let alone you."

When Yang Chengyun heard his father bring up his fifth uncle Yang Huai, he realized how serious the trouble he had caused this time. His fifth uncle's situation was similar to his, having been getting into trouble since he was a child, and later went astray and ruined his own future.

"Dad, I promise to correct myself in the future and never make the same mistake again."

"What should I change?"

Yang Jun interrupted him and said, "My son Yang Jun was born to eat meat. There is no reason for him to eat grass."

"Since you love fighting so much..."

Yang Jun suddenly made a decision at this moment, and said solemnly: "From now on, you will be responsible for your fifth brother's affairs."

Now Xiaowu is busy building a shelter in your province and has no time to manage his business. If no one manages it for a long time, I'm afraid that group of people will be unrestrained and endanger society. Yang Jun decided to let his son manage this group of people.

Since the entire family business was to be handed over to Yang Chengdao for management, he would let the person closest to him and whom he trusted the most to assist his son. Adhering to the principle that the fruit should not be rotten in the pot and should not be taken advantage of by outsiders, he decided to employ his relatives.

"Dad, are you telling the truth?"

When Yang Chengyun heard this, he was extremely excited, just like a cat seeing a fish.

"Are you really going to hand over Fifth Brother's business to me?"

"When did I break my promise?" Yang Jun said with a straight face, "You are not cut out for school anyway, so just do something you like."

"But, as I said before, there must be a limit to what you do. There are some lines that you must never cross. You must keep this in mind."

"Yes, Dad, I promise to complete the task."

Yang Chengyun felt as if he had accepted a heavy burden at this moment. He became extremely serious, put his feet together like a guard, and spoke respectfully.

Afterwards, the atmosphere eased a lot. Yang Chengyun carefully sat next to his father and asked with a smile: "Dad, since you have handed over that mess to me, do you not have to go to school in the future?"

"It doesn't matter whether my grades are good or not."

Hearing this, Yang Jun glared at him and said, "You have to take care of things and go to school."

"Even if you get nothing in the exam, you should stay in school. I don't expect you to be very successful, but you must go to school. Whether you learn anything or not is not the first thing to say, at least you should get a college diploma."

"The children of my Yang family will pursue careers in the government in the future, so their resumes must be perfect. You can't keep doing that kind of thing, so you'd better take the right path in the future."

"understand?"

Yang Chengyun: "I know, Dad."

"Don't worry, I won't let you down."

Yang Jun nodded and pointed to the yard with his chin.

"Go out and continue kneeling."

"what?"

Yang Chengyun was stunned for a moment and looked at his father in disbelief.

"Is there a problem?" Yang Jun's eyes widened.

"You...didn't you say that I would be exempted from the beating?" Yang Chengyun said in a low voice.

"Yes, did I hit you?"

"Not really." Yang Chengyun shook his head.

"You can escape the death penalty, but you can't forgive a crime that's punishable by death. Although I promised not to beat you, you've committed such a big mistake, there's no way I won't punish you."

Yang Jun thought for a moment and said, "Just kneel in the yard until tomorrow morning."

"what?"

When he heard that he had to kneel all night, Yang Chengyun smiled bitterly.

"Don't make me change my mind."

"Yes, Dad."

When Yang Chengyun heard this, he was so scared that he ran out immediately, as if he was afraid that his father would change his mind.

"There are surveillance cameras in the yard. If you dare to be sneaky..."

"No, absolutely not."

As Yang Chengyun spoke, he knelt down in the yard, his body straight and motionless.

Seeing that his son had already knelt down, Yang Jun didn't say anything, turned around and went to the bedroom.

As soon as I reached the door, Meng Wenya opened it.

"Old Yang, are you really going to make your son kneel all night?"

"What else? You take his place?" Yang Jun rolled his eyes at her.

"I won't." Meng Wenya shook her head repeatedly and said, "It's hot outside and there are a lot of mosquitoes. Can you bear to let me kneel?"

"I'm willing to beat you, but I can't bear to make you kneel?"

"Hate."

Then, Meng Wenya closed the door and the lights in the room went out.

……

Early the next morning.

After washing up, Yang Jun prepared to go to the restaurant for dinner.

As soon as he went out, he saw his son kneeling in the yard, grinning at him.

"Dad, can I get up now?"

Yang Jun glanced at him and saw that he was soaked in dew, and his face, neck and arms were covered with mosquito bites. Only then did he realize that this kid had been kneeling here all night.

"You didn't cheat, did you?"

"No." Yang Chengyun said loudly: "If you don't believe me, you can check the surveillance. If I dare to cheat, you can punish me to kneel for three days and three nights."

"Hmph, I'll watch the surveillance."

Yang Jun snorted coldly, waved his hand and said, "Go back, take a shower, change clothes and go to school."

"what?"

When Yang Chengyun heard this, he felt like the sky was falling.

He didn't sleep that night. He thought he could go home and have a good sleep after the kneeling punishment, but he didn't expect that he still had to go to school.

But it doesn’t matter. At worst I can just sleep somewhere else.

"Yes."

Yang Chengyun responded, then struggled to get up from the ground. He almost fell down because he had been kneeling for too long.

Yang Jun didn't go over to help him, he just stood there and watched him make a fool of himself.

"Dad, I...I'm going back first."

Yang Chengyun said as he backed away, then when he was a certain distance away, he immediately turned around and ran towards his room. (End of this chapter)
