Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting
Chapter 249 Banquet
The contempt in Yan Bugui's eyes was almost manifested, and there was even some resentment in his contempt, and even wrinkles appeared on his face.
This subtle change in expression was clearly captured by the third aunt who had lived with Yan Bugui for many years.
"Hey, Old Yan, can't I see what's in your eyes? There's no need to care about Liu Haizhong. Let him do whatever he wants. We just need to sit back and watch him get retaliated against." The third aunt glanced at her curious children nearby, then leaned over and whispered in Yan Bugui's ear.
As she spoke, she gently tapped Yan Bugui's shoulder with her index finger, which made Yan Bugui's anger disappear a lot.
Yan Bugui put a mouthful of pickled vegetables into his mouth, then chewed it in big mouthfuls, mumbling: "I didn't think of caring about him, but the situation you mentioned is unlikely to happen. His son and daughter-in-law don't sue him, so what can happen to him?"
"But I'm not the only one who is dissatisfied with the courtyard. Yi Zhonghai also said: 'Liu Haizhong is simply a piece of rotten meat in our courtyard. Even writing his name next to the cesspool would still be considered smelly!'"
"That's right!" The third aunt's voice suddenly rose a few notes, as if she wanted to pour out all her dissatisfaction. "He alone has brought shame to everyone in our courtyard. Shooting him? Shooting him is a light sentence! He should be paraded through the streets to let everyone know that there has never been such a scum in our courtyard!"
"Don't worry about him," Yan Bugui waved his hand, as if to dispel his unhappiness, "With his character, he will end up in jail sooner or later. We have to stay away from him, so as not to be implicated one day."
The three aunts nodded, lowered their heads and started eating, then coaxed the children to eat the pickles without saying anything more.
While eating, Yan Bugui began to think about how much gift to give at the moving banquet.
He would feel bad if he gave too much, but if he gave too little, he might not get anything done.
It's not that he thinks Liu Ping'an is a snob. But this matter must be done by Liu Ping'an, so it's impossible for Liu Ping'an to show up, right?
If Liu Ping'an shows up at that time, even if he gets the job, the content of the work may not be easy.
Maybe you will even be fired. Then it will be more trouble than gain.
These days, social etiquette is more important than anything else. Don’t lose your job because of an inadequate gift, as that would be a complete loss.
The children of the Yan family hid their eyes behind the bowls, secretly observing their parents' mysterious conversation, their hearts full of doubts.
They exchanged glances, each with a curious glint in his or her eyes.
"What are mom and dad doing? They're sneaking around. Are they trying to have an affair?" Yan Jiedi lowered her voice and said excitedly.
"Eighty percent likely! We have to keep an eye on them. As soon as they go out, we have to follow them. When we catch them, we can go out with them for a good meal!" Yan Jiefang slapped his thigh and gestured to make a decision. The others nodded in agreement, their eyes looking forward to the taste of meat.
Not only will we be able to eat meat then, but maybe the food will get better and we won’t have to eat pickles every day.
On the other side, in Yi Zhonghai's home, light was shining on the kang. Yi Zhonghai and an aunt sat opposite each other. In front of them were several plates of simple but delicious meals. The two ate and chatted.
Yi Zhonghai picked up a piece of well-cooked meat, put it in his mouth and savored it carefully, then nodded with satisfaction.
He was in a good mood today, so he asked the aunt to buy some pork and stew it.
He was very impressed with the taste of the dish. He put down his chopsticks, his eyes flickered with pride, and said to the aunt, "I said Liu Ping'an is a good kid. You see, he knows that I am the eldest uncle in the yard, and he specially invited us to his moving banquet. This shows that he knows what he is doing and knows how to respect his elders."
Upon hearing this, the aunt also smiled approvingly and gently patted the back of Yi Zhonghai's hand.
"Yes, Liu Ping'an is a really good kid. He knows who in our courtyard is worth inviting. Tell me, besides you, who else is invited?"
After hearing what the aunt said, Yi Zhonghai groaned for a moment and said seriously: "At least there is Yan Laokou. Although he is stingy, his character is not a problem. And he has a good relationship with Liu Pingan, so he must be one of them."
“As for Liu Haizhong…” Yi Zhonghai mentioned this name and smiled disdainfully, “He is not qualified!”
"He's definitely not qualified!"
Compared to Yi Zhonghai's guess, the aunt said directly and categorically: "I will be like Liu Haizhong in the future. He beat the child in public and made the child scream. It is really unbearable to watch. Moreover, Liu Haizhong beat the child without any reason. He just hit the child casually when he was in a bad mood. This behavior is really intolerable."
The aunt didn't have any children, but she couldn't stand seeing Liu Haizhong treating his children like that.
If you can't even do this, you are unworthy of being a human being!
Yi Zhonghai listened and nodded in agreement. He continued, "That's right. Liu Haizhong is a typical bully. In the yard, he doesn't dare to argue with others, so he only takes it out on his own children. Who would like such a person?"
As he spoke, Yi Zhonghai picked up another piece of food, put it in his mouth, and praised while chewing: "Well, this dish is really well cooked. According to Liu Ping'an's generous means of buying a courtyard house, it seems that the banquet will be very sumptuous. We must enjoy it when the time comes."
The aunt also smiled and agreed, "Yes, yes, we are just waiting for a good meal. But then again, we have to prepare a decent gift for Liu Ping'an, so that he won't think we don't know etiquette."
Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai nodded in agreement.
"By the way, when the time comes, call Sha Zhu along. Maybe he'll meet someone he likes and forget about Qiao Zhenzhen."
When Yi Zhonghai heard the old lady talking about this, he felt a little bad.
This silly Zhu is really stubborn and has been obsessed with Qiao Zhenzhen recently, which makes Yi Zhonghai speechless.
There are plenty of beautiful women out there, why do you have to tie yourself to one tree?
I don't know if that woman drugged Shazhu, otherwise how could this happen?
"I'll ask about this later. There's no conflict between Shazhu and Ping'an, so he won't say anything if I ask him to go."
Yi Zhonghai decided that he would take He Yuzhu with him when the time comes. Otherwise, if he continued to be entangled with that woman, his retirement plan would be stillborn, which was not what he wanted.
He is old now, and he doesn't have the courage to continue training someone after Jia Dongxu's death.
So he will definitely not let He Yuzhu go.
