Yang Jianguo's face showed no sign of happiness, he just smoked a cigarette in front of the empty pigsty.
Yang Jianqiang walked out with him, smiling and wanting to talk.
"Brother, your family has lived in the city for so many years and has never come back. Now that you have been married for such a long time, you are suddenly brought back. Should we invite our relatives and friends to a dinner table?"
Yang Jianqiang said with a smile: "I feel that there was something wrong with our family before, and we treated our fellow villagers badly. This time when I come back, I want to treat my relatives and friends to a meal at a restaurant in the village."
"I won't accept the betrothal gift. As long as everyone is willing to come, it will give me face."
Yang Jianguo turned his head and glanced at Yang Jianqiang and said, "Brother, Yang Ling is still working in the steel factory and earns several hundred yuan a month. Your family is not rich, so why are you holding a banquet like this now?"
Yang Jianqiang knew that his younger brother was very competitive, so he didn't tell him about Yang Ling. He just said: "It's nothing. I can still afford this little money. I will trouble you to come with me to invite relatives and friends in the next two days. I think this
It’s just two or three days later, when everyone is free, we can have a meal at the table.”
Yang Jianguo thought he had good intentions, but unexpectedly, Yang Jianqiang didn't appreciate it at all. Instead, he kept talking to himself, which made him feel that he had been ignored.
He became more and more anxious and looked at his eldest brother and said: "What you are thinking of doing is your family's business. You three can just discuss it. There is no need to tell me that I have other things to be busy with these two days. Please invite someone."
It depends on the situation."
"Jianguo."
Yang Jianqiang also knew that he was ashamed of his younger brother and had a very low attitude.
"I know it's not easy for you these past years. If you have anything to do in the future, just ask. If there is anything our family can do to help, we will try our best to lend a helping hand. We are all one family, and we can't talk about two families, right?"
Yang Jianguo was amused by his elder brother's words.
"I said brother, take care of yourself."
Yang Jianguo looked at his eldest brother who looked like he had never seen the world before and said, "Xiaofen and I can earn more than 40,000 yuan a year. Look at this motorcycle."
Yang Jianguo patted the brand-new motorcycle next to him heavily.
"This is brand new and cost several thousand!"
"Really? Are you doing a good job now?"
"That's for sure. There are more opportunities outside than at home. What's the use of your family living in Jiangcheng County and holding such a bad position? Maybe it was of some use more than ten years ago, but now no one looks down on it.
That’s a few hundred dollars.”
Yang Jianguo sat on the motorcycle and said to his eldest brother: "Brother, don't talk about helping me. Now think about it, I stayed at home to be where we are today. Otherwise, I would be guarding the steel factory like you."
You can't earn a few cents from such a bad position."
At this time, Yang Jianguo's son Yang Tao (Yang Ling's cousin) and his wife Chen Xiuli rushed back from outside.
Yang Tao walked in front, and Chen Xiuli followed behind, mumbling and complaining to him along the way.
"I've been hanging out in that mahjong parlor all day long! There are some big men playing from morning to night, can't you do something serious?"
"If I didn't call you, would you not have gone home today? You wouldn't have eaten, and all the money you had finally earned would have been thrown on the card table!"
As the two of them walked along, Chen Xiuli was not idle at all, and she made Yang Tao worthless.
The more Yang Tao listened, the more annoyed he became. He frowned, not knowing what he was thinking, and walked into the yard. When he looked up, he saw another person standing next to his father. It turned out to be an uncle he hadn't seen for several years.
"Uncle, why are you back?"
Yang Tao looked at Yang Jianqiang in surprise and asked.
Yang Jianguo stared at his son displeased and said: "You see, your kid is focused on playing cards all day long. Didn't I tell you yesterday that your uncle is coming back today? You go home early. Why are you delaying it again?"
Now!"
Yang Tao slapped his forehead and finally remembered the matter, and replied: "Dad, I can't help you when uncle comes back. Why are you always staring at me?"
"Go in and meet people, Yang Ling and your siblings."
Yang Tao then looked towards the room, and he happened to see Su Yi standing with her sister-in-law. This woman was as beautiful as a fairy, and Yang Tao couldn't take it back after just one look.
Chen Xiuli noticed Yang Tao's eyes and pinched Yang Tao with gritted teeth.
"Look! I'll take out your eyeballs!"
Suddenly there was a noise at the door. A group of women in the village and children from various families heard that a handsome daughter-in-law was here, and they all came over after hearing the news.
"Come and see the flower bride!"
"The flower bride of Yang Ling's family!"
A group of children ran past Yang Tao one after another. Yang Tao was still standing in the yard blankly, looking at Su Yi surrounded by children, but his heart became warm.
"Oh, I have long heard that my cousin married a beautiful wife. Today I saw that she is really a vixen. She took away people's souls as soon as they met her. There are still such women in this world."
Chen Xiuli was so angry when she saw her husband's appearance that she couldn't help but give Su Yi a few words.
Yang Ling frowned, looked at Chen Xiuli and said, "Sister-in-law, what do you mean by this?"
"What do I mean?"
Chen Xiuli said in a sharp voice: "I just praised your wife for her beauty, why are you so mean to me? This person doesn't come back for how many years, and when he comes back, he will be caught and quarreled, right?"
"Xiao Ling, what's wrong?"
Yang Jianqiang, who was outside the door, heard the movement and looked over.
When he came back, Yang Jianqiang specifically warned his family about what they might say and asked them to be patient.
When I heard the noise, I thought it was Yang Ling and Chen Xiuli having a quarrel.
Yang Jianguo glared at Chen Xiuli with an unhappy expression and said, "Xiuli, what do you think? My family finally came back and they are guests. Why are you arguing with the guests?"
Chen Xiuli curled her lips aggrievedly and said to Yang Jianguo: "Dad, look what has become of your son. His soul has been taken away by this vixen. What's the matter with me saying a few words? I don't think there is any one in your family."
Anyone who treats me as a family member can scold me. Why am I still staying in this house? I can’t survive this life!"
Chen Xiuli covered her face and cried all the way into the back room.
Originally, Lao Yang's house was quite big, with a row of houses, three spacious rooms and a kitchen next to it.
When I was young, my parents lived in the back room, and Yang Jianguo and Yang Jianqiang lived in a separate room next to the living room. Yang Caifeng slept in the small room by herself.
After his parents left, Yang Caifeng also got married. The old house was divided between the two brothers. The master bedroom and the back room had always been Yang Jianqiang's. After Yang Jianguo got married, he lived in the small house.
