Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

"Someone opens their heart to you, and you turn around and throw it into the snow... and then stomp on it a couple of times, how can you not become enemies?"

"Fine, I can't argue with you, go to sleep now!" Li Lan chuckled and agreed, tidying up his soft bedding.

Li Aimin leaned forward and sighed, "Hey, just look at the couple right in front of us... Aiguo and his wife are a perfect example."

"Why are you bringing up patriotism again? Don't talk nonsense." Li Lan glanced nervously towards the door, afraid that someone might overhear.

"What can't be said..." Faced with his wife's serious expression, Li Aimin muttered a couple of words listlessly.

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. I'm not saying anything more... I'm going to sleep."

He turned over, facing the wall, and Li Aimin's eyes widened.

The couple who love their country really get annoyed whenever they think about him.

They used to be so noisy and argumentative, but now they're much quieter and know their boundaries better than outsiders.

They spoke very politely, repeatedly saying "thank you."

If life has become like this, it's better to get a divorce sooner rather than later, so as to avoid feeling resentful and making outsiders feel uncomfortable.

"Don't get any funny ideas, Aimin. I'm talking to you, do you hear me?"

An old couple who have been together for so many years, you can tell what they're up to just by looking at them.

"It's better to tear down ten temples than to arrange a single marriage," Li Lanke advised him.

Don't spout nonsense and make yourself look bad to everyone.

"Okay, I got it. Stop nagging, it's annoying."

"Now you think I'm nagging? Why didn't you think so before? If you're angry, go outside and vent it on me. Why are you trying to show off your power here?"

“…I was wrong, okay?” Turning his head, Li Aimin saw his wife sitting angrily on the edge of the bed and sat up.

He opened his purse, took out a wad of cash, and said, "Didn't you see that bag last time? What's it called... Burberry, right? Let's find some time after we get off the bus and go to the mall to buy it."

Upon seeing the stack of tens of thousands of yuan, Li Lan's expression softened instantly.

"That's too expensive, isn't it?" she said, already taking the money from his hand.

Li Aimin grinned, thinking to himself, 'This money is a damn good thing; with it, even the conflicts in the family have disappeared.'

“Expensive? My wife needs the best. Buy it.” Li Aimin waved his hand and handed over another stack of brand-new bills.

Several bundles were piled together, worth at least fifty or sixty thousand.

I'm in a good mood today, so I'll buy whatever I want, as long as I don't make a scene or cause any trouble.

Hey ~

Having a good mood is much more important than this amount of money.

In the next sleeper compartment, the newlywed couple were snuggling together.

The two were like glued together, inseparable wherever they went, except for going to the toilet together.

The entire private room was filled with an overwhelming sweetness, so sweet it was almost sickening.

Zhiyi originally wanted to chat with the two of them, but she couldn't stand it after less than five minutes.

Shivering, I opened the door and went out.

He rushed into his parents' private room, pushed open the door and shouted, "I can't take it anymore, Dad, Mom, can either of you control Yang Zhiyuan?"

"What's wrong with you?" Seeing her acting crazy, Yingzi chuckled: "Your brother and sister-in-law must have provoked you. Why don't you find a man to marry?"

"Mom~" Zhiyi angrily sat down next to her, pouting as she looked across at the other side: "Dad, look at my mom."

Yang Jianguo, who was reading a book, hummed without looking up, "Yeah, your mother is right."

"..." Well, there's no place for me in this family anymore.

Or should I leave?

……

P.S.: Sorry, my eyes have been really uncomfortable these past two days. They're dry, tired, and very sore.

I went to see a doctor, and they said it was dry eye syndrome plus overuse of my eyes. They treated me with hot steam, then used tweezers to pinch my eyes in various ways, and then applied a cold compress.

The pain was so intense, my eyes were blurry all day, and I have to continue with several more courses of treatment. I don't want to go anymore!!

Chapter 562 Arrangements, Past Tense

As soon as the train arrived at the station, Li Aimin rushed outside.

"Brother-in-law, I'll go see if there's a car." Li Aimin made an excuse and hurriedly picked up his luggage and went out.

"Love the people, love the people~" Yingzi called out several times, but couldn't stop them.

When his in-laws came over and asked what was wrong, they learned that he had gone to flag down a car. He said, "I've arranged everything. The car is waiting outside."

"Zhiyi, go and stop your uncle, don't let him look for another car."

"Oh~" Zhiyi responded and ran outside with her small bag on her back.

As soon as Zhiyi stepped off the platform, she saw her uncle talking to a man in a suit and tie.

The other person bowed their head in front of him, behaving like a subordinate.

"Uncle." Zhiyi ran forward, and Li Aimin waved to the driver in front of him to leave quickly.

"Zhiyi, where are your parents?"

"It's still inside. Is this the car you found?"

Zhiyi knew that her uncle had arranged a car, and she also understood why her mother had asked her to come out.

He tipped him off, telling him that everything was arranged at his sister-in-law's house.

After hearing her finish speaking, Li Aimin chuckled and said, "Uncle isn't stupid. He thought of that a long time ago. He came out early to tell the driver to be more observant."

Since there were no cars available, he pretended to have happened to come by, giving everyone a way out.

A car was available, and the group boarded it smoothly.

He drove back and acted as if nothing had happened.

Li Aimin came out early because he was afraid that if the driver saw him, he would get on the bus and the two groups' cars would collide, making things awkward for everyone.

"I knew you were the smartest, Uncle." Zhiyi wrinkled her nose and smiled sweetly at him, acting coquettishly.

"Hey, don't you even know who my uncle is?" Li Aimin said smugly, his tail practically wagging with pride.

The two sang in perfect harmony, their coordination was exceptional.

As they were talking, the main group arrived, and three cars parked by the roadside opened their doors almost simultaneously, with the drivers rushing over.

"Boss." They went straight to Runye's second father, and the two of them immediately took turns carrying the luggage.

The two knew before they arrived that the leader was coming back to hold a wedding banquet for his child.

Those who were with him were either his family or his in-laws.

When dealing with your in-laws, you should be even more enthusiastic than you are with them personally.

So, as soon as they saw Yang Jianguo and Yingzi standing next to him, they knew who the real person was.

The two of them standing there didn't look like ordinary people.

Yang Jianguo, dressed in a Zhongshan suit, stood tall and exuded an extraordinary air.

Yingzi was gentle and refined, with an air of scholarly elegance emanating from her.

Without needing an introduction, the driver knew that the leader's in-laws were no ordinary people, and naturally understood that the leader's arrangement was sincere.

Therefore, they are exceptionally efficient at their work.

"Thank you."

Yang Jianguo didn't engage in any polite back-and-forth with the other party, but nodded his thanks and handed over his luggage.

This is his 'job' for this trip; once it's done, everything will be fine.

If it's not handled well, it might actually affect his future work and the impression he makes on his superiors.

Making things convenient for yourself is making things convenient for others.

After quickly putting their luggage away, the group went to the car.

The car headed straight to the Bell Tower Hotel, where Runye's second uncle had already booked a room.

A standard room costs 78 yuan per day and includes two single beds, a small square table, a stool, and a single sofa.

The floor was covered with carpet, and the walls were adorned with paintings by unknown artists.

"We have limited resources, so please make do for a few days," Runye's second father said.

After looking around the room, Yang Jianguo said repeatedly, "This is not about being particular; we are already living very well."

“Jianguo is right. This is better than our home. We never had such a nice house to live in before.”

"If it looks good, then you guys can rest first."

Runye's dad raised his wrist in agreement, glanced at the time, and said, "How about we have lunch together at 12 o'clock?"

"No need for a meal. You'll have to worry about the child's wedding tomorrow, and there's bound to be a lot of things to do."

"Let's keep things simple. From now on, we're all on the same side, so there's no need for formalities!"

"Take a break and get ready... the important thing is to get the wedding going tomorrow."

Yang Jianguo patted his son's arm and said, "Zhiyuan, you come along too. Be quick to help if you need anything."

"Okay, Dad," Zhiyuan nodded in agreement.

They exchanged a few pleasantries, skipping all the unnecessary formalities and formalities.

Zhiyuan and his family left the hotel happily.

Anyone can understand that after rushing to the capital and working non-stop, they didn't even have time to rest.

They rushed back to Chang'an, for tomorrow would be another celebratory banquet.

Various arrangements, setups, and social engagements are all indispensable.

Even an Iron Man couldn't withstand it.

What everyone needs most right now is a safe and relaxing environment.

Lie down and catch your breath; everything else is just empty talk.

Yang Jianguo and his wife did the same; they lay down in the room and didn't get up.

Li Aimin came over and invited the two of them to dinner, but they both said they wouldn't go.

He was so tired that he had no appetite, so he had someone bring the food to his room.

Yingzi was quite surprised by this: "It's possible to do this now?"

“It’s been there for a while, but you’re always cooped up inside, and you’re not happy to come out and go out more.”

Li Aimin rolled his eyes and said speechlessly, "Sister, you really should come out and see how fast the world changes."

"Get lost! You're making your sister sound like some old fogey from feudal society," Yingzi said with a laugh, sounding annoyed.

Li Aimin grinned and said, "That's not quite it. At most, she's a young lady from a wealthy family who never leaves her home."

Yang Jianguo swallowed his noodles and interjected, "You're wrong about that. Your sister is still a working-class woman; she hasn't retired yet!"

"Oh, right, I almost forgot." Li Aimin clapped her hands in realization and said, "Sister, didn't your factory provide you with any training or education on this?"

Yingzi's expression was reserved, and she looked visibly disappointed. She murmured, "Everyone's busy with layoffs and generating revenue; they don't have time to care about these things."

Although Yang Jianguo had tried his best, it was impossible to protect everyone's jobs.

There are always some people who are laid off or unemployed for various reasons.

In Yingzi's factory, over a hundred people have left in small numbers over the years.

The impact on them remains significant.

No one would have imagined that they, as workers, would also be laid off and unemployed.

The social impact and psychological shock brought about by the wave of 4500 million people going into business and the wave of 1000 million people going into business.
