Siheyuan: Yan Jiekuang's carefree life

The third aunt, who was busy in the kitchen, saw Yan Jiekuang pushing a cart of things in from the window and hurriedly shouted, "Old Yan! Come out and help!"

"Hey! Here we come!" Yan Bugui came out of the main room upon hearing the shout. Seeing the two large bags of stuff on the bicycle, he asked, "Jie Kuang, what are all these things in there?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied, "Things from my home in the Northeast." After that, Yan Jiekuang quickly unloaded the two large sacks of things and said, "Dad, please help me take the things into the main room first."

"Okay!" Yan Bugui responded, and helped Yan Jiekuang carry the two sacks of things into the main room. Yan Jiekuang came out to park his bicycle, went back to the house and called Su Zihui, and the two of them went into the main room together to start opening the parcels.

After working for more than 20 minutes, the parcels were finally opened. Yan Bugui looked at the preserved meat piled on the table and said, "Jie Kuang, why are there so many things?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied, "They say that if you live by the mountains, you can eat by the mountains; if you live by the water, you can eat by the water. The places where I go to the countryside are mostly mountains. There are also many prey on the mountains. If I get more, it will be convenient for me to eat meat when I want." Then Yan Jiekuang took out some rabbit skins and said, "Dad, these rabbit skins have been saltpetered. You and mom can each make a pair of pants. They will keep you warm in winter."

"What do you want me to do?!" Auntie No. 3 came in from outside with a smile. Seeing the cured meat and rabbit skin on the table, Auntie No. 3 picked up a rabbit skin and said, "This is a good thing!"

Yan Jiekuang said, "Mom, please find some time to make a pair of pants for you and dad using rabbit skin. You won't be cold when you wear them in the winter."

The third aunt said, "It would be such a waste to make it for us! I think I should make a set of clothes for each of the two children, and then make two quilts for them."

Yan Jiekuang said, "Mom! What I give to you is yours. When the two children's things were in the Northeast, I had someone prepare them for them."

Yan Bugui said, "Mother, since it is given to us by our son, then please accept it. Don't waste his kindness."

The third aunt thought about it and nodded, "Okay! I'll do it tomorrow." Then she glanced at Yan Bugui and asked, "Are you satisfied now?!"

Yan Bugui smiled at the two of them, picked up a piece of cured wild boar meat, sniffed it, and said, "Jie Kuang, we didn't finish the cured meat you sent home before. Now you bring back so much. How long will we finish eating it?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied, "These things won't go bad if they're left there. If you really think there are too many things, you can pick out some that you like and keep them. I'll take the rest to the factory to exchange for money."

"Okay! That's fine too." Yan Bugui echoed, saying, "Let your mom and I pick one out when we have time."

"Then let's go back to our room first." After saying that, Yan Jiekuang took Su Zihui and took the remaining things and left the main room.

"Brother, sister-in-law!" Yan Jiekuang and Su Zihui just entered the house, and Yan Jiedi's voice rang in their ears. Yan Jiekuang put the things next to the cabinet, took out a waistcoat, hat, gloves and scarf made of rabbit skin from a package and handed them to Yan Jiedi, saying: "I asked an aunt with good craftsmanship to make this when I came back. Go and try it to see if it fits. If it's too big, ask our mother to make it smaller for you."

"Brother, you are so nice!" Yan Jiedi gave Yan Jiekuang a good guy card, happily took the things and ran out. Yan Jiekuang looked at Yan Jiedi's impetuous look, smiled unconsciously, then took out a tiger skin and two bear skins, and asked: "Xiaohui, which one do you think is better, the bear skin or this tiger skin?!"

Su Zihui thought for a moment and said, "There is only one tiger skin, so we can keep it for ourselves. There are two bear skins, so it's just right for Grandpa and Grandpa to each have one, so they don't have to quarrel over some skins."

Yan Jiekuang thought about it, nodded and said, "Okay! I'll listen to you! We'll send the stuff to them in two days." Then Yan Jiekuang opened a parcel and handed it to Su Zihui, saying, "I was lucky a while ago and shot a few sables. I asked someone to make you a set of clothes, a hat, a scarf and gloves with the sable fur."

Su Zihui took the things Yan Jiekuang handed over and asked, "I have it, what about you?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied: "I have thick skin and am not afraid of the cold. So I don't need these things."

"Nonsense! Who wouldn't be afraid of the cold?!" Su Zihui rolled her eyes at Yan Jiekuang and asked, "Where are the children's things?!"

Yan Jiekuang handed another package to Su Zihui and said, "The children's things are all in here."

Su Zihui opened the package, took out the things inside and looked at them, then put them in the cabinet and said, "I'll find a sunny day to dry these things and give them to the children."

"Thank you for your hard work! Let's take the children to the main room to eat!" After saying that, Yan Jiekuang walked to the bedside, picked up the two children, one in each hand, and followed Su Zihui out of his room.

In a blink of an eye, it was Saturday. Because he had to go to the retirement home in the afternoon, Yan Jiekuang clocked in at the company early in the morning and rode his tricycle out of the factory. At about 11 o'clock in the morning, Yan Jiekuang came back on his tricycle. When the security staff saw the things on the tricycle, their eyes lit up. When Yan Jiekuang arrived at the factory gate, he suddenly stopped the tricycle and asked, "Where is your team leader?!"

Sun Yuejiang, who was resting in the communication room, heard Yan Jiekuang's voice and came out of the communication room. Yan Jiekuang hurriedly called out, "Brother-in-law!" Then he took a sack from the car and said, "Brother-in-law, we'll settle the money later. You and your brothers should share the things in here." After that, Yan Jiekuang rode his tricycle into the factory.

After Yan Jiekuang left, Sun Yuejiang glanced at his dazed subordinates standing by and said, "What are you still standing there for? Bring the things in!"

The two security guards standing nearby immediately came to their senses after hearing what Sun Yuejiang said. One of them ran to the sack, picked it up, and happily took the things into the communication room. Sun Yuejiang followed him into the communication room, opened the sack, and saw what was inside. He thought to himself, "This kid is really good!"

Sun Yuejiang warned: "Don't make this public. Take the things back to our office first, and don't forget to weigh them. We'll divide them after get off work."

"Yes!" the subordinate responded, picked up the sack and ran towards the office.

After completing the task, Yan Jiekuang parked the tricycle, pushed the bicycle out of the shed, and rode the bicycle towards the factory gate.

"Little Yan!" Yan Jiekuang was stopped by Sun Yuejiang just as he arrived at the factory gate. Yan Jiekuang got off his bicycle and asked, "Brother-in-law, what's the matter?!"

Sun Yuejiang took out some money from his pocket and gave it to Yan Jiekuang, saying, "If you encounter such a good thing again in the future, don't forget me, your brother-in-law!"

Yan Jiekuang replied: "Don't worry! I will never forget this. I'm leaving first!" After that, Yan Jiekuang rode his bicycle out of the factory gate.

Watching Yan Jiekuang's figure gradually disappear into the distance, Sun Yuejiang looked at his men beside him and said, "You guys keep an eye on him here. I'll be back soon!" After that, Sun Yuejiang turned and left.

After Sun Yuejiang left, the people from the security department standing by the factory gate gathered together and started talking about how to eat meat when they got home tonight? !
