Siheyuan: Sending my younger brother to the countryside to raise pigs

The whole family sat around the table staring at him intently. Yan Jiecheng felt like a prisoner being interrogated in the interrogation room of a police station.

"You...you really sent someone to guard the gate?"

Rush?

The word sounded really harsh and made him feel like a dog.

"it is true."

A few people still held on to a glimmer of hope, but now their mood has completely hit rock bottom.

The third aunt acted as a messenger for everyone, "What's going on? How could a good driver be suddenly transferred to guard the gate? I heard from people in the factory that you were criticized for having an affair with someone in the factory. Is that true?"

The others also looked at Yan Jiecheng, waiting for his answer.

Yan Jiecheng found a little comfort that the feeding during this period was not in vain after all. If it were before, he would probably have been scolded by now.

He shook his head. "Not really."

The old couple breathed a sigh of relief, and their frowning brows relaxed.

It’s better if it’s not true.

"If it's not true, why would they transfer you to guard the gate? And I heard that the whole factory was notified and the penalty notice was posted on the factory bulletin board."

Yan Jiecheng nodded, "The punishment is real, but that's not the case. If it was really promiscuous, I would not be guarding the gate, but the cell door of the police station."

"Since he didn't have any promiscuous relationships, why is he punished? This is totally unreasonable. Didn't you go and talk to the factory leaders?"

Yan Jiecheng picked up the teapot on the table and poured a glass of water. He took a few sips to moisten his throat and continued, "It's hard to say. Besides, the rumors about me in the factory are true. In fact, if I were to guess, this incident is just a pretext. The real problem lies in my position."

The three aunts were puzzled, "What does this have to do with your position?"

Yan Fugui understood a little, "You mean your position aroused envy, so the factory leaders found a reason to transfer you to the gate?"

Yan Jiecheng nodded. "That's what I think. Ever since I became a driver, even the neighbors in our yard have been saying that I'm embezzling money, not to mention the factory. It's only a matter of time before I'm investigated."

Now everyone in the family was completely relieved.

But on second thought, I felt very aggrieved. He had done nothing wrong, but was sent to guard the gate just because of other people's jealousy. This was too unfair.

The third aunt pointed outside the door and cursed angrily, "What a bunch of people who are jealous of others. They can't stand seeing others do well. They are jealous of others because they have no ability. How can they be so vicious?"

Yan Jie Di was also angry and said, "That's right. Big brother, since it's all fake, why don't you go talk to the leader? The punishment is too heavy. It's not you who ruined the reputation of the factory, it's those who spread the lies. Why should you be the only one to take the blame in the end? This is too unfair."

Yan Jiecheng didn't say anything, but just smiled faintly while watching his family quarrel.

Yan Fugui took all his expressions into consideration and felt that his eldest son was truly remarkable. Even after such a big incident, he could still act as if nothing had happened.

Unless there is a plan for success.

Yan Fugui cleared his throat and said, "Okay, stop arguing. Let's listen to what the boss has to say. Boss, do you have any ideas?"

The room fell silent, and everyone's eyes turned to Yan Jiecheng again.

Yan Jiecheng: “I think it’s pretty good.”

The third auntie was not happy with it. "What's good about it? If the driver doesn't want me to do this job, I can just transfer me to the workshop. It's too shameful for me to be the gatekeeper at such a young age. Boss, go talk to your leader tomorrow. This is too much of a bully."

Yan Jiecheng interrupted the three aunts, "What's wrong with guarding the gate? Going to the workshop is dirty and tiring, so just take this opportunity to avoid the limelight."

The third aunt's eyes widened, she was filled with grief and raised her hand to slap Yan Jiecheng, "Are you serious? Can you...can you be a little more capable? If you don't go to your leader to ask for an explanation tomorrow, I will go. Why should our good children be humiliated by others?"

Yan Jiecheng knew that the third aunt was not just talking. If he didn't give a reasonable explanation, she might really go to the factory to make trouble.

After much hesitation, he decided to inform them.

Yan Jiecheng looked up at Yan Jiedi and Yan Jiekuang, "Old Three, Old Four, go to the yard and cool off first. I have something to talk to my parents about."

Yan Jiedi pouted in dissatisfaction, "What can't you say in front of us? We are also part of this family."

Yan Jiekuang stiffened his neck and said, "That's right."

Yan Jiecheng: "No one says you are not part of the family. I am just worried that you can't control your mouth."

The two men's eyes lit up and they quickly raised their hands to pledge.

"I can keep my mouth shut."

"I can do that too."

My eldest brother was sent to guard the gate, but he was still so calm. He must have a trick up his sleeve.

What is the back-up plan?

If I don't let them know, they'll be worried about it all day long, and won't they be miserable?

They looked at Yan Jiecheng, hoping to be kept, but they forgot who really had the final say in the family.

Yan Fugui glared and scolded, "What can you do? Children, stay out of the adults' business. Just do what you need to do."

The two wanted to struggle a little longer, "Why can't we listen?"

Yan Fugui didn't say anything. He just stared at the two of them with a serious expression.

The two were quickly defeated and walked out of the house reluctantly and dejectedly.

Soon there were only three people left in the room.

The third aunt said, "Everyone is out, Boss, what do you think?"

Yan Jiecheng hesitated for a moment, "Don't get involved in this matter. If I was really dissatisfied, I would have gone to the leader to discuss it yesterday. I have indeed been too eye-catching recently, so I will just avoid the limelight. Besides, I don't want to be with Qin Jingru anymore."

Compared to guarding the gate, it is also surprising that Yan Jiecheng no longer wants to date Qin Jingru, after all, the two were about to get engaged.

"What? Don't want to be together anymore?"

The third aunt opened her mouth in shock, thinking she had heard wrongly, "This is too sudden. Why do you not want to be together anymore? Aren't you getting along well? You are about to get engaged. Are you worried that you will be transferred to be the gatekeeper and Jingru will dislike you?"

Yan Jiecheng sighed and shook his head. "No. Qin Jingru is a good girl, hardworking and caring. But she is too soft-hearted, can't tell good from bad, and won't listen to advice."

After hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Yan Fugui understood immediately.

It’s because of Qin Huairu’s family.

Ever since Qin Jingru and Qin Huairu's family reconciled, they had often given Yan Jiecheng's things to help them. Because she was their future daughter-in-law, the old couple were unhappy but couldn't say anything.

I thought my son was blind, but it turned out that he had seen everything.

This time they also agreed with their son's decision.
