Chapter 106: Fighting the Landlord
Taohua Town is far away from the urban area of Yinan and is located in a remote area dozens of kilometers away.
Yang Yi was only a teenager when he left Peach Blossom Town, and he often went home during this period, so he also witnessed the development of the town step by step.
From the original town of more than 1,000 people to the current population of more than 10,000, in addition to the local residents, the population of several small villages migrated from the next few villages accounts for the majority. The population has increased and the transportation has gradually become more convenient, so it has also driven the economy of Taohua Town, which is considered to be in the upper middle compared to other small towns.
Most of the families have changed from their original brick houses to self-built houses with two floors and one roof, or simply live in community villas built by foreign developers, and only a few families on the edge of the town still live in their former houses, and Yang Jinfu's family is one of them.
The blue brick walls, the thick vermilion wooden doors, the wide courtyard, the gray tile back, and a few weeping willows in the courtyard form a picture similar to a courtyard house. According to Yang Jinyun's words, this is the courtyard left by the ancestors, and as future generations, they cannot and have no right to rebuild it.
Anyone who has lived in this type of house knows that although it does not look as beautiful and elegant as a suite villa on the surface, it is unusually comfortable and natural to live in. The breath buried deep in the courtyard is enough to make anyone deeply nostalgic.
Among the three brothers, Yang Jincai and Yang Jinrong have already moved out of the family, leaving Yang Jinfu to accompany the elderly Yang Jinyun, but although he is over eighty years old, his body is quite tough, just like his temper.
This time the eldest son Yang Jincai's birthday, he was also quite happy, he cleaned up the wide courtyard in advance, and slaughtered and washed a few chickens and ducks with his own hands, and the tables, chairs and stools were also placed neatly, waiting for the arrival of his children and grandchildren.
The rising sun sprinkled the warm light into the courtyard, Yang Jinyun leaned on the old rattan chair, half-squinted and smoked a paper cigarette, and there was a cup of freshly brewed tea next to him, enjoying the little life left.
"Dad! It's not early, I'm going to get ready. After Yang Jinfu obtained Yang Jinyun's consent, he hurriedly entered the kitchen and got busy. Although the economy of Taohua Town has begun to take off gradually, the practices of some of the rural areas that remained at the beginning have not changed. That is, no matter how many customers there are, they will not be extravagant in the restaurants and restaurants outside.
The door opened, Yang pushed the door in, and when he saw Yang Jinyun who was still closing his eyes and recuperating, he immediately stepped forward with a smile and pinched his shoulder: "Grandpa!" I'm back, think I didn't? ”
Yang Jinyun opened his eyes and said with a smile: "I knew that Ah Yi, you must be the first to come back." As he spoke, he handed the remaining half of the paper cigarette in his hand to Yang Yi, and reached out to rub Yang Yi's head: "It looks like it's a little thin, didn't I tell you?" Eat more outside and maintain a moderate amount of exercise, you look at your grandfather and me, now in their eighties, and their bodies are still so tough. If you continue to lose weight like this, beware of not finding a daughter-in-law! You must know that the current era is different from ours, we had a baby affinity and arranged marriage at that time, even if both parties didn't like it, they had to be together under the words of the matchmaker of their parents......
Yang Yi honestly listened to Yang Jinyun's rambling, his heart was full of flowing warm feelings, smiled at Qiao Qiao, and gave him another look.
Qiao Qiao walked up to Yang Jinyun with a red face and said generously: "Hello grandpa!" ”
Yang Jinyun suddenly opened his eyes and sat up, looked Qiao Qiao up and down, and nodded after a while: "Okay!" Good! The little girl is so handsome! What is your name? How long have you known Ah Yi? ”
Qiao Qiao said embarrassedly: "My name is Qiao Qiao, and I have known Ah Yi for more than two months. ”
Yang Jinyun frowned, reached out and twisted Yang Yi's ear, pulled him in front of him and whispered: "Stinky boy, tell me honestly, have you done anything to others?" ”
Yang Yi said with a bitter face: "Grandpa, where did you say?" Since I was a child, I have been instilled with a correct outlook on life and values by you, and I know a lot about how to behave in the world. Before I got married, I would never and would not dare to touch her. Don't believe you ask her! ”
The people who were about to be thirty were twisted in their ears, and the whole person stood upright, looking very funny, and Erlong and the others who followed behind were forced to laugh, lest they laugh out loud.
Qiao Qiao heard the conversation between the two, and his face was even more red.
After another education, Yang Jinyun let go of Commander Yang's ears and snorted: "Yes, it's the best, otherwise if you don't teach you a lesson, I will break your legs!" Turning his face, he took out a red envelope that had already been prepared and handed it to Qiao Qiao, and said with a smile: "The child takes it!" ”
Qiao Qiao was stunned, wanting to wave his hand and excuse himself, but Yang Yi whispered beside him: "Take it!" This is the heart of the elderly, and it is also the tradition of our family, the first time the daughter-in-law above is to get a big red envelope! ”
Only then did Jojo timidly reach out and take it, and carefully put it into his bag.
"Godgrandpa! What about us? Erlong, Sanpai, and Si Ni also came over with a smile, and all of them stretched out their hands to ask for red envelopes.
Yang Jinyun glared and said, "Is it the first time for you to come to the door?" Is it the daughter-in-law of my Yang family? While speaking, he still reached into his pocket and took out a few red envelopes and put them in their hands: "I won't give it next time!" ”
Several people smiled and said, "Thank you, Grandpa!" I wish Grandpa Gan good health and all his wishes come true! ”
Yang Jinyun laughed and said, "Good! Your mouths are still so sweet, it's not like Ah can't hold back a fart for half a day! But today is not my birthday, but Uncle Ayi, you have mistaken the protagonist! ”
At this time, Yang Jinfu poked his head out of the kitchen window, and when he saw Yang Yi, he shouted, "Ah Yi! Where are you standing stupidly for? Hurry up and help out in the kitchen! ”
Yang Yi answered, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to go over, when Sini had already rushed into the kitchen in front. Here Qiao Qiao also pulled him and said in a low voice, "I...... I'm going to help too! ”
Seeing Qiao Qiao so well-behaved, Yang Yi was very proud in his heart, and a 'um' came out of his nostrils, like a big man who was in charge.
"Come on! The old rules! Yang Jinyun pulled out the stool and beckoned: "Come here, take advantage of the time now, play with me twice!" ”
Erlong, Sanpao and Yang looked at each other, and sat down as they said.
Every time they come back, Yang Jinyun will always pull them to play cards, from the very beginning of the long card to mahjong, and now the old man Yang is obsessed with fighting landlords.
Tearing open a deck of playing cards that had been prepared long ago, Yang Jinyun shuffled the cards energetically, and randomly drew another one and turned it over.
The card that was turned over is a square A, according to the rules of the local landlord, more than four people must sit at the bottom, that is to say, Mr. Yang can not play, only the qualification of the card.
"Ah Yi holds the dealt!" Old Man Yang directly handed the poker to Yang Yi and snorted coldly: "What do you see?" Are you not convinced? ”
Yang Yi hurriedly smiled and said: "Grandpa said that he was joking, it is my honor to be able to deal cards for grandpa!" As he spoke, he quickly divided the cards among the three men, leaving three cards on the table.
"You guys don't have to play with this! I'm going to be the landlord! "Mr. Yang unfolded the cards, and at first glance he saw a pair of kings, followed by three twos, three aces, and a pair of JQK, and the rest were a few single cards that were not on the side.
Yang Yi turned over the three cards, and the cards were 368, which was not big, but it was in the hands of Mr. Yang and he just completed a set of consecutive cards for him.
The result was naturally that there was no suspense, Old Man Yang won easily, and Erlong and Sancang lay on the ground with a bitter face and honestly did twenty push-ups.
The second turn was the second dragon to sit at the bottom, and Old Man Yang was the landlord again, and said: "You don't have to play anymore!" As he spoke, he played a small 3.
Yang played a 2 directly without changing his color, and said with a smile: "Did Grandpa let me play cards once?" ”
Old Man Yang looked at Yang Yi's expression, did not find any clues, looked at the cards in his hand again, and finally nodded reluctantly.
"Airplane!" Yang Yi smiled and played three sets of flying up, a total of seventeen cards, and he now only had four cards left in his hand.
Old Man Yang was dumbfounded, and then stared at the four cards in Yang's hand, and said word by word: "Don't tell me you still have a bomb!" Hum! If so, I have the right to suspect you of cheating! You know the rules of our house! ”
Yang Yi was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the four A's in his hand stupidly, and finally pressed the card to the table after a while, and the boss reluctantly said: "It's not a bomb!" After saying that, he broke the four A's and came out with one A's.
Naturally, there was no suspense in the result of this hand, and Yang Yi and Sanpao were easily defeated, lying on the ground and starting to do push-ups.
Just as it was done, the door was vigorously pushed open from the outside, and a large number of people crowded in.
Yang Yi breathed a sigh of relief, if he continued to play with his grandfather like this, he and Erlong Sancang would have to go crazy. hurriedly took the opportunity to greet him, and said with a smile: "Uncle and second uncle, you are back!" ”
Yang Yi's uncle, Yang Jincai, is quite tall, with a wide face and a high nose, but unfortunately he is wearing a brand-name suit that doesn't fit well, and he looks like a native old fat who got rich overnight. The second uncle is tall and thin, and the outline of his facial features is a little more similar to Yang Jinfu, and when he saw Yang Yi greeting him, he nodded dispensably.
He was followed by two young men who were about the same age as Yang Yi, both of whom had a rebellious face, and they didn't greet Yang Yi when they saw him, and they snorted slightly in their noses.
Finally, there were two young and beautiful girls, dressed in fancy clothes, and their buttocks flew up when they walked, for fear that others would ignore them. The body is sprayed with a greasy perfume, which is impressive.
At the suggestion of Yang Jincai and Yang Jinrong, the four of them walked straight to Yang Jinyun and saluted respectfully.
Old man Yang was also quite happy, and took out red envelopes and sent them to the two girls.
The things in the kitchen here are basically over, Sini is in and out of the dishes on the table, very busy, Erlong Sancang naturally can't be idle, immediately go to help Sini serve food.
