Siheyuan: Domineering life

Half a month has passed.

Diaoyutai has been completed and is currently in the window opening and painting stage. It will be put into use within two days.

This Diaoyutai is very beautifully built, with two floors in total, surrounded entirely by tempered glass, providing excellent viewing angles and lighting. In addition, a high-power air conditioner is installed on each floor, so there is no need to worry about heat or cold.

The construction workers have all left, and currently there are several nannies inside doing the final cleanup work.

The pier leading to the middle of the river from the shore is also newly built. It is winding and very artistic.

"Mr. Yang."

Seeing Yang Jun coming, several nannies who were cleaning in Diaoyutai greeted him in unison.

"You guys do your thing, I'm just taking a look."

Yang Jun walked around with his hands behind his back. He had to say that Diaoyutai was beautifully built, with all the antique buildings. Even the floors inside were made of original solid wood, as was the ceiling. There was a painting of a palace maid holding a lantern on it, and a palace lantern was installed exactly in the position of the palace lantern in the painting. The structures of the two fit together very perfectly, and if you didn't know, you would think that was the palace lantern in the painting.

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

Yang Jun pressed the light switch button several times.

He checked to see if the lights were working properly, then opened the window to look at the scenery outside. He was looking at everything curiously like Grandma Yang who had just entered the Grand View Garden.

There is a floor-to-ceiling glass door installed on the south wall near the middle of the river. This door is specially designed. Once the door is opened, you can fish directly in the house without going out. It is very convenient.

"Mr. Yang, everything has been cleaned. Do you want us to move everything in now?"

At this time, a nanny who was the foreman came over to ask for instructions.

"Okay, let's all move back."

Yang Jun turned around and said to Sun Zhaocai and Sha Zhu, "You two go and help."

They know everything about what is usually used for fishing and what is used for drinking tea.

"Uncle Yang, do you want to replace that rattan chair with a new one? The old one is too old." Sun Zhaocai was about to leave when he remembered something.

"No change."

Yang Jun waved his hand and said, "I've been lying on that chair for twenty years. I'm used to it. I'm afraid I won't be able to adapt to the new one."

"I know, Uncle Yang."

Sun Zhaocai just walked to the door when he suddenly remembered something and turned back again.

"Uncle Yang, do you want to replace the tea bar and tea sets with new ones?"

Yang Jun thought for a moment and said, "New people, new atmosphere. Since Diaoyutai is new, let's replace all the furniture and furnishings inside with new ones."

"I know."

Then after taking a few steps, he came back.

"Uncle Yang... barbecue grill... do you want it..."

"roll."

"Got it."

Yang Jun gets a headache when he hears the word "barbecue".

Over the past twenty years, those two gluttons have been grilling fish, chicken, duck, lamb and other things every day. At least eighty thousand innocent lives have died in their hands. The pungent smell makes me want to swallow it. Even now, I feel nauseous when I hear these two words.

A big part of the reason why he built this glass fishing platform was actually for barbecue. He wanted to seal it tightly on all sides so that he would never have to smell the barbecue smell again.

He would not restrict them from barbecuing, but he could confine them to the glass house on the shore, and they were not allowed to open the windows when they were barbecuing.

After a while, everyone started to move things into the Diaoyutai.

These furniture, bar counter, tea set and other items were all bought in advance and can be used directly after moving in. The Diaoyutai is newly built, the furniture is new, the furnishings are new, everything in the house is new, except for the rattan chair, which is old.

Due to being used for a long time, the rattan chair was polished by Yang Jun to a shine, and the black color still glowed, which seemed out of place with the whole environment.

Yang Jun lay on the rattan chair and felt it. It was still the familiar feeling and so comfortable. This rattan chair had accompanied him through decades of ups and downs like an old friend. It could be said that he spent at least half of his day on it. This rattan chair had become an indispensable part of his life.

"Boom!"

There was a knock on the door.

Yang Jun didn't look back or say anything.

There were people coming in and out everywhere, so he had no time to care who came.

Seeing that Yang Jun didn't say anything, the man walked straight behind him, suddenly put his hands on his temples and pressed gently.

"Qiu Shui?"

Yang Jun closed his eyes and enjoyed it all, trying to guess.

The man didn't say anything, but he pressed harder on his temple.

He knew that he guessed wrong.

"Fragrance?"

The force on the head increased.

"I won't guess anymore."

Yang Jun found that every time he guessed wrong, the force on his head would increase. If he guessed wrong again, his head would be crushed sooner or later. Fortunately, the force was just right now.

"it's me."

Huang Yani's voice came from behind, and at the same time, the force on the head increased.

"Hmph, you only have Qiu Shui and Qing Xiang in your heart. You never care about us." Huang Yani said angrily.

"That's meaningless. You're in my heart, too. I've always kept you in my heart." Yang Jun knew that the woman was jealous again, so he quickly coaxed her.

"A man's mouth is deceiving."

"I...Is it okay for me to go to your room tonight?"

Yang Jun might as well use his ultimate move, otherwise this woman will never stop.

"It's a deal. Whoever doesn't go is a puppy."

This trick really worked, and Huang Yani was no longer angry immediately.

She turned around and sat on the small stool next to her.

After trying the new stool, he felt uncomfortable and said to himself, "It's not like my family can't afford a stool. Can't you get a bigger one?"

"This small stool hurts my butt when I sit on it. It's uncomfortable."

"Haha, it's right to be uncomfortable." Yang Jun laughed and said, "If everyone sits comfortably, how can I be a big leader?"

Huang Yani rolled her eyes at him after hearing this.

"here we go again."

After a slight pause, he continued, "I can understand that you built the Diaoyutai, but why did you build a lounge on top, and you even put such a big bed in it?"

After hearing this, Yang Jun sat up from the rattan chair and looked at her with a smile.

"You all have your own yard, but I don't. Why can't I have a space of my own?"

For so many years, he didn't have a yard of his own. He usually slept in their yard. He had no fixed residence and no fixed personal space. He changed his sleeping place every day. He always felt like he was sleeping in a hotel and didn't have a trace of home feeling.

So, this time he took the opportunity of building the Diaoyutai to build a bedroom for himself. Men have a few inconvenient days every month, and he wanted to take a break or something.

"We have several empty yards at home. You can just pick one. Is there any need to build one?" Huang Yani.

"That's different." Yang Jun explained, "What's the use of having my own yard? I can't help myself. Will you allow me to live in my own yard?"

"No."

Huang Yani answered without thinking: "If that's the case, then we have to take turns going to your yard."

"That's right, you understand it very well, don't you? That's why I built such a bedroom." "So you mean we have to take turns to come to Diaoyutai in the future?" Huang Yani stared at him intently, as if she would immediately gather all the women to denounce him if he said a wrong word.

"That's not the case." Yang Jun explained hurriedly, "I just use it to rest when I'm tired and sleepy during the day. I still have to go back to the backyard to sleep at night."

"It better be this way."

Huang Yani glared at him, as if to let him go.

"That's absolutely true." Yang Jun smiled awkwardly.

He secretly complained in his heart that it seemed that this bedroom was built in vain, because those ferocious women would never allow him to sleep alone.

"What are you doing here?" Yang Jun asked.

"It's okay, just walk around."

After that, he paused for a moment and continued, "Today is my birthday, remember to come early."

"Your birthday?"

As soon as Yang Jun finished speaking, he immediately realized that he was wrong. How could a man not know that it was his woman's birthday? He quickly changed his words and said, "Don't worry, I'll go over early in the evening."

“Don’t forget to bring a gift.”

Huang Yani rolled her eyes at him and left.

"Gift?"

After she left, Yang Jun said to himself, "What should I give her?"

Huang Yani doesn't care about money, gold, silver, jewelry, etc. She doesn't like flowers either. Women from wealthy families really don't know what to give as gifts. They have seen everything and have everything. They don't care about these things at all. Yang Jun has a headache and doesn't know what to give her.

"Zhaocai, it's your wife's birthday, what gift are you going to give her?" Yang Jun looked at Sun Zhaocai who was fiddling with the new tea set.

"Give her a slap in the face."

Sun Zhaocai said angrily, "Why is the woman so pretentious? The man works hard outside to make money to support the family, but she does nothing at home and acts like a princess all day long, asking for this and that. I think it's best to give her a slap in the face."

When Yang Jun heard this, his head turned black.

This guy is just a fool. Don't expect to get an answer from him.

"Silly, what about you?"

"Me?" Sha Zhu pointed at himself and laughed.

"My wife beats me whenever she's happy. She beats me every time there's a festival or birthday."

Yang Jun was shocked when he heard this.

"Your wife Zhaodi's interests are indeed different from those of ordinary people."

"Hehe, I have thick skin and tough flesh. When she beats me it's like tickling me. It's fine as long as she is happy." Sha Zhu grinned foolishly.

"Well, just pretend I never asked you."

Yang Jun was speechless and held his forehead with his hands.

Don't expect to get the answer you want from these two idiots. As for what gift to give Huang Yani for her birthday, you have to figure it out on your own.

"What gift should I give?" Yang Jun muttered to himself, racking his brains.

……

In the evening, he went back to the backyard to eat.

He was holding a bunch of gorgeous roses in his arms. These words were just taken out from his space. There were all kinds of flowers in his space, all of which were copied by him.

He really couldn't think of a good birthday gift, so he could only give flowers.

It doesn’t matter whether she likes it or not, as long as I don’t go empty-handed.

"Wow, what beautiful roses."

As soon as they entered the restaurant, a group of children screamed.

Especially a few girls, who gathered around him, put their noses close to the flowers and sniffed hard.

"Dad, is this for Second Aunt? Today is her birthday." asked Yang Chengxun, the daughter.

"It's for the second aunt." Yang Jun replied with a smile.

Whenever someone in the family has a birthday, we basically celebrate together. The nannies remember everyone's birthday in the family, and on the day, there will definitely be cake to eat. Over the years, someone in the family has a birthday every week.

"Second aunt, come quickly, dad sent you flowers." Yang Chengxun shouted towards the adults' table.

Huang Yani had already seen Yang Jun sending flowers, and her heart was filled with sweetness and her face was full of joy.

"Happy birthday."

Yang Jun gave the flowers to Huang Yani.

Huang Yani's smile grew wider and her face flushed.

"Thanks husband."

She buried her head in the flowers and sniffed the fragrance desperately.

"Hey, why didn't anyone send me flowers on my birthday?" At this time, Yi Qiu Shui suddenly said sourly.

"It's just like someone gave me flowers on my birthday." Meng Wenya also felt sour.

"I have never received flowers from Lao Yang either." Nalan Qingmeng.

"I do not have either……"

A group of women looked at Yang Jun with cold eyes, as if they wanted to eat him.

This is the first time Yang Jun has sent flowers in all these years.

If you treat everyone equally and don't give flowers to anyone, then no one will say anything. But if you give flowers to Huang Yani alone, then they will not be happy. Especially Yi Qiushui, she looked at Yang Jun with resentment. It would be fine if you didn't give flowers to her, the legal wife, but you gave flowers to a concubine. How could she put her face?

"This... from now on, I will send flowers to anyone of you on your birthday, okay?"

Yang Jun wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead, looking guilty.

The feeling of being stared at by everyone is too bad. I must make up for it now, otherwise it will be difficult to survive in the future.

After saying this, he really wanted to slap himself in the face. Isn't this just asking for trouble? With so many people at home, it's hard for him to remember which day is whose birthday. If one of them is exposed, he'll be doomed again.

"You mean, starting from Yani?"

Yi Qiu Shui folded her arms and looked at him with a mocking expression.

It’s not that she is petty, but she simply wants to embarrass Yang Jun and make him look bad.

"Forehead……"

This is a fatal question. If you answer it wrong, you will offend people.

Fortunately, he had a good memory, and with a blink of an eye, he said, "Of course she wasn't the first one, but it started with you."

"Oh, it started with me. Then can you tell me when did you send me flowers?" Yi Qiu Shui looked at him leisurely.

"Do you remember when we first met, I gave you lilies in Hongmei Park?"

"One anniversary?" Yi Qiu Shui smiled after hearing this.

"It happened decades ago, how can you remember it so clearly? Were those flowers given to me on my birthday?"

"Anyway, the first time I give flowers in my life is to you." Yang Jun said stiffly.

"Humph, you are cunning."

Yi Qiushui rolled her eyes at him and said, "Today is Yani's birthday, I won't bother with you."

"Come on, let's celebrate together." (End of this chapter)
