Such performance cannot risk one's life just to test one's character, right?

“Now that we have drunk three parts of the wine, let us taste the flavor of the spiced dishes.

"Uncle Qian, who was the first to admit defeat, put down his wine glass like a rogue and invited everyone to eat together.

Seeing his elder showing weakness, Yang Jun realized that his goal had been achieved and stopped toasting.

"Eat well!" The other seniors, who had already been exhausted, followed suit upon seeing this.

So everyone just enjoyed their meal and no one mentioned drinking anymore.

The essence of an engagement party is a family dinner shared by two families, where more than an hour is spent chatting about family matters and enjoying the dishes.

On the way back, Wang Yuying looked at the man in the back seat, frowning and calculating with his fingers, and said worriedly: "The wedding will be held on the second day of the Chinese New Year, but the ingredients are not ready yet, what should I do?"

You should prepare food ingredients during this time, but before the New Year, there is often a difficult supply and demand period, prices are high, and quality is hard to find.

While driving, Yang Jun replied, "Mom, don't worry about the food, I have asked my comrades to arrange it for me in advance.

Just think about which guests to invite.”

In fact, Yang Jun did not ask anyone to buy food.

Because there are mountains of food in his storage space, not only are there many varieties but they are also extremely fresh, surpassing the standards on the market.

Hearing that Yang Jun had already made preparations, Wang Yuying's heart finally settled down: "Okay, when your future in-laws discussed your marriage with me, I was always worried." She began to count the furniture and items in the new house: "The house has been renovated, and we bought new mattresses and curtains... Everything is brand new."

Seeing her mother taking such a detailed inventory, her sister Yangmei was also busy verifying what was missing.

A lot of things like bedding had already been confirmed, but Wang Yuying was a little worried about the food. She said, "I have calculated these things many times, but the food is the only thing I'm still worried about..."

"Brother, can your comrades be trusted? It's hard to find high-quality meat ingredients." The younger sister raised doubts.

Yang Jun replied with a smile: "Those fresh pork products come from the factory. Do you think he is trustworthy?" Such words revealed Yang Jun's trust and pride in his partner.

"It's not bad..." After hearing this, Yangmei felt much more at ease.

Since we already have tens of thousands of kilograms of pork, this amount is really no problem.

"Remember, don't forget ingredients like onion, ginger, garlic, and cooking oil, and inform your guys.

"As soon as Yang Mei said this, a layer of black lines appeared on Yang Jun's forehead. The mother and daughter seemed to be worried about everything and would not let him go even for such a small matter.

“I know, I know.

"

...

When I returned to my courtyard, I happened to encounter a meeting of the entire courtyard.

The topic this time is the fight between Banggeng and Yangyu.

For some unknown reason, the two had a conflict. Jia Zhang took Bang Geng to look for Yang Yu's family. It happened that Yang Jun went to get engaged and there was no one at home to preside over the party, and Yang Liu was unable to make a decision. So Jia Zhang kept making a fuss and demanded that the Yang family must pay 20 yuan for medical expenses as a solution.

Bang Geng and Yang Yu were standing face to face at this moment, provoking each other and trying to defeat each other with their eyes.

Yang Yu was not greatly affected by this incident. His clothes were intact and there was no mark on his face. He stood there proudly like a winner, with a smug look in his eyes.

But Bang Geng's situation was not as good. His new clothes were torn into pieces, his face and neck were covered with scars, and his eyes were swollen like panda eyes.

He stood far away in fear, hatred in his eyes, and he wished he could tear Yang Yu into pieces.

Jia Zhang stood by and denounced Yang Jun for indulging his sister as a cadre and head of the family, and asked for help from other people in the courtyard.

"Yang Jun is the eldest brother in the courtyard, but he allowed his sister to bully the poor family. Can everyone stand up for our Jia family?"

The second uncle and the third uncle discussed in a low voice. Although they were inclined to favor Yang Yu, when they saw that Bang Geng was seriously injured and his cotton coat was badly damaged, they were afraid of being misunderstood as being unfair, and they were in a dilemma.

---

Chapter 100: Seeing Yang Jun return, the second and third uncles felt as if they had been released. They quickly recounted the situation and looked at him anxiously to see how he would respond.

Yang Jun first examined Yang Yu, and was relieved only after confirming that there were no signs of damage. He also noticed that Bang Geng was seriously injured, especially the large wound on his neck, which even made him feel creepy when he saw it.

It is clear that today's issue is thorny. If you favor Yang Yu, you may be questioned for being fair. If you handle it fairly, you may be criticized for just trying to save the face of the big brother cadre.

No matter what he does, he will be talked about.

So Yang Jun decided that no matter what his personal feelings were, today's battle must be to help Yang Yu settle the matter.

He scanned the crowd, but Qin Huairu was nowhere to be seen.

She knew her situation and did not dare to face Yang Jun head-on under the circumstances.

On the one hand, she did not want to anger him and hoped to use this to facilitate the marriage of Qin Jingru and Li Tiezhu. On the other hand, she was heartbroken by Banggeng's serious injury and could only hide aside while her mother-in-law, Jia Zhang, came forward to ask for medical compensation from others.

As long as the matter could be settled, she would be overjoyed, but if the situation worsened, she would intervene to mediate as an outsider, so as to avoid being blamed by Yang Jun and to establish an image of magnanimity.

After sneering, Yang Jun said, "My dear colleagues, this matter involves my sister, and as the head of the family, I should avoid suspicion.

But I stand here as a parent to explain the whole story.

"He glanced at Bang Geng and continued, "I won't comment on the two children fighting for whatever reason.

Now I want to ask Bang Geng, when my sister Yang Yu was injured a few times ago, did your family not pay a penny for the medical expenses?

After Yang Jun finished speaking, his eyes fell on Bang Geng.

When Banggeng saw Yang Jun's ferocious expression, he was so scared that his whole body trembled.

“I…I…”

Seeing how frightened Bang Geng was, Jia Zhang jumped up and shouted at Yang Jun,

"Young man surnamed Yang, please stop slandering me. When did my eldest grandson hurt your sister? Don't think you can use this as an excuse to change your statement. If you don't pay us 20 yuan for medical expenses today, this matter will not be resolved.

"

"No injuries? The scratches on your sister's face are from the dog, right?"

"Caught by a dog? Then go find the dog! Why are you involving my grandson?" Jia Zhang's eyes turned cunningly and she acted like a rogue.

The scratches on Yang Yu's body had healed long ago, and now there was no way to find evidence, so he had to change his strategy.

"Okay, even if it was scratched by a dog, I will not bear grudges.

I just want to ask you, did you see my sister get beaten up?

He said to everyone in the yard, "Bang Geng is bigger and stronger than his sister, not to mention he's a boy. Do you think the sister can beat Bang Geng?"

As soon as this was said, Dai Zhu interjected, “Bang Geng is a naughty boy, maybe he fell down accidentally.

"

Upon hearing this, Jia Zhang flew into a rage, stood up and spat at Dai Zhu, cursing:

"Bah! You know nothing, Dazhu! You act so arrogant in front of us just because you're married.

How could my grandson's wounds be caused by falling? Just fall down and see what happens! "

At this time, a pale-faced young man stood up and said, “Daizhu is wrong.

Bangteng didn't hurt himself, he was bitten by a dog.

"

In order to convince everyone, the young man stepped forward and stated seriously: "I personally saw Bang Geng confronting a large wolf dog. The dog was as tall as a man. Bang Geng just wanted to have fun, but he made the wolf dog angry and caught him."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Damao echoed, "Yes, that's what Guangqi said. I saw Bang Geng fighting with the big wolf dog with my own eyes. It's a pity that Bang Geng's martial arts skills were not good enough, so he was defeated so miserably."

Yan Jieben was also nodding in agreement, "It's what Damao said, the big dog held down Banggeng and prevented him from getting up, and the result of his pounce and scratching was what he looks like now.

"

Liu Guangfu pretended to be worried and patted his chest and said, "I wanted to help him, but the big wolfdog looked scary, so I didn't dare to go forward."

Liu Guangtian said: "If we hadn't helped drive away the big wolfdog, Bangteng's injuries would have been even more serious."

Everyone agreed and determined that this was the fact.

These scars were caused by wolfhounds and Yang Yu had nothing to do with it.

Yang Jun's face was filled with embarrassment, and he was speechless as he watched these people distort the facts.

He had already planned a way to fight against Jia Zhang, but he didn't expect that he would be tricked by everyone as soon as he opened his mouth.

It is said that the terrier was injured because he teased the big dog, which made the dog feel disgusted.

He couldn't help but sigh at the influence of power. When you are in a high position, everyone is happy to add fuel to the fire; once you lose power, you will become the target of suppression by others.

In this courtyard, except for Jia Zhang who was not very smart, no one dared to anger Yang Jun. Everyone knew that currying favor with him was a smart choice. Who would be willing to offend others and suffer the consequences?

After hearing all this, Jia Zhang was filled with anger and anxiety. The scene of the group of children teaming up to bully her grandson and Yang Yu beating and kicking Bang Geng appeared in front of her eyes.

At this moment, her grief and anger were beyond words.

“You heartless creatures teamed up to bully orphans and widows.

Seeing that my man was not at home, they all jumped out to add insult to injury."

"Hey, Xu'er, wake up and see how these people in the yard are bullying your son and your mother.

"

"Hey, Lao Jia, take these cruel guys away quickly! Otherwise, how can we, an orphan and a widow, survive?"

Seeing that no one spoke up for the Jia family, she collapsed to the ground and cried sadly.

Faced with Jia Zhang's increasingly outrageous behavior, Second Grandfather stood up, tapped the table and said seriously:

“Ms. Jia Zhang, the injuries on your grandson were caused by that dog, not Yang Yu’s fault.

Now I declare that this topic ends here and the meeting is over.

"

After he finished speaking, the second grandfather was the first to leave with a teacup and a big belly. He learned this action from Yi Zhonghai. When encountering disputes, Yi Zhonghai would simply slam the table and adjourn the meeting to stop the other party from debating.

Indeed, this method is very effective and has been proven to work.

Seeing this, Jia Zhang quickly got up and grabbed the second grandfather's leg to stop him.

"Mr. Liu, your uncle Yi is so strong because no one in your Jia family supports justice. Are you trying to take advantage of the situation? Unless the Yang family compensates my Bang Geng for 20 yuan in medical expenses, this matter will not be over."

"Jia Zhang, let go..."

Uncle Yan Bugui, who was watching the fight from the side, saw that Jia Zhang was entangled and slowly said, "Sister-in-law, we don't want to be partial. As long as you can find the 'big wolf dog' that bit Banggeng, we will of course ask the dog owner to pay for the medical expenses.

But now... I'm afraid there is no trace of this wolfdog."

After saying this, Yan Bugui revealed a sly smile and left the scene.

Private dog ownership is not allowed in Beijing, and even if there are dogs, they are just stray dogs.

As for the term "big wolfdog", it is just word of mouth.

Haha, Jia Zhang, you have wrongly accused the wrong person, right?

Just when Yang Jun returned to the inner courtyard and was about to teach Yang Laosi a lesson, Qin Huairu rushed over.

"Brother Junzi, this is all my mother-in-law's fault. Please forgive her for being from the same hometown.

"

Yang Jun saw that Qin Huairu was beaming with joy. She didn't look anxious at all, but more like she was gloating.

"Qin Huairu, I know what you are thinking.

I am willing to compensate for Banggeng's medical expenses and clothes, but from now on, our two families will break off relations and have no further contact with each other.

If you plot against my family again, Yi Zhonghai will be your fate."

Hearing this, Qin Huairu panicked and waved her hands quickly, saying, "Brother Junzi, that's not what I meant. You... you know, I've had enough of this kind of life.

My mother-in-law treated me harshly, and I wanted my children to behave well.

But there is only so much I can do, so I plan to ask for your help to get that old lady back home."

"So, you want me to help you get rid of Jia Zhang?"

Qin Huairu lowered her head and crossed her hands together nervously, as if she was afraid that Yang Jun would vent his anger on her.

“Brother Junzi, I am a woman with an unfortunate fate.

I originally yearned for the city, but after marrying into your family, I was abused by Dongxu. After Dongxu passed away, I thought I could find peace, but the mother-in-law was always unreasonable and indulged the children in stealing.

I...I have no other options, so I request that she be sent back to the countryside in this way."

“This matter is limited to the conflict between the children, and I have no intention of asking you to pay compensation.
