Chapter 35 Over the Dinner Party
Yang Jiayun looked at Yang Bao with a displeased face, and Yang Dongsheng stood between Yang Bao and Yang Jiayun, "Uncle Bao, you are here..."

"Isn't this the Ancestral Worship Festival coming soon? My father asked you and Jia Yun to go over to have dinner tonight and discuss about ancestor worship."

"Okay, we'll be there tonight."

The Yang family has a family ancestral hall in Yangzhuang.The annual ancestor worship is a very grand event, and even members of the Yang family who are away will come back to participate in this ceremony as much as possible.

In previous years, Yang Dongsheng and Yang Jiayun just went to the ancestral hall to kowtow in line every year.

But now their status is not what it used to be, and more importantly, Yang Dongsheng and Yang Jiayun have to pay for it this time, especially now that Yang Shan is not here.

Yang Huai and Yang Haisheng followed Wang Jianye to learn how to drive an excavator.

Yang Huai only watched it a few times before he was able to operate the machine and dig a hole in the ground decently.He is smart and has the foundation to drive a tractor, Yang Haisheng is a little bit worse.

"Has all the news spread out?" Yang Dongsheng asked Yang Jiayun.

"It's all gone, make sure to let them know."

Spreading rumors about Yang Shan's method of betraying his own people is not considered clever, but those drivers have ghosts in their hearts, and Yang Shan's character has always been known for being poor. Even if they don't spread rumors, those drivers may not be able to bear it. All kinds of small nines are born.

After paying half of the deposit to Wang Jianye and leaving Wang Jianye's contact address, Yang Dongsheng and Yang Jiayun rushed to Yang Wu's house for a banquet.

Several people had already arrived one step ahead of them, shaking hands and saying hello, everyone was very polite.

There was only one person who seemed out of place, that was a young man who looked to be about the same age as Yang Dongsheng, he looked at everyone coldly, as if he had a grudge against everyone.

This person is Yang Shan's adopted son Yang Li.

Yang Shan has been divorced twice and married three wives, but for some reason, he never gave birth to a single egg.

Some people in the village said that it was because Yangshan had done too many immoral things, which was unprecedented.

Three years after marrying his third wife, Yang Shan himself gave up his treatment and adopted a son from his elder brother's family, which was Yang Li.

It was getting late, and the main room of Yang Wu's house was gradually being filled.

When Yang Wu personally accompanied an old man with white hair and beard into the main room, everyone hurriedly stood up and said together, "Hello, old man!"

"Sit down, sit down, why are you being polite as a family!" The white-bearded old man squinted his eyes and waved at everyone.

"Everyone is here, old man, shall we have a seat?" Yang Wuchong said to the old man.

"Okay, take a seat!" The old man still squinted his eyes.

Yang Bao raised the curtain of the inner room for the old man, only to see a big round table in the inner room.

A half-sized roast lamb was placed on the round table in front of everyone, and tough dishes such as soft-shelled turtle, crab, roast duck, and hoof could only be placed on the sides.

Yang Bao led the crowd into their seats according to their seniority, and when the old man sat down tremblingly, when the others were about to take their seats, one of them suddenly opened the door curtain, walked in and said loudly, "I'm not late, am I?"

"Why did he come out so soon?" Immediately, someone couldn't help shouting, and immediately covered his mouth after shouting.

Yang Dongsheng's eyes froze immediately, the person who came was none other than Yang Shan, and he came out!
The happiest person at the scene was Yang Li. He was slightly taken aback, and then rushed to Yang Shan with big strides, "Father!"

"Yeah!" Yang Shan nodded, then turned to everyone, and said like a master, "Everyone, don't stand, sit down, sit down!"

Everyone looked at Yang Wu together.

Yang Wu's complexion was very ugly, "It's good to be back! Yang Bao, move a chair for Brother Shan. Let's all sit down."

Only then did everyone take their seats.

"Brother Shan, are you okay?" Someone couldn't help asking.

"What can I do? It's just to cooperate with the investigation! You are not afraid of the shadow! What, you hope something will happen to your brother Shan?" Yang Shan said.

"Brother Shan, you are joking!" The man made fun of himself and stopped talking.

Yang Shan was like a hedgehog at this time, and he didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Several rounds of wine were drunk one after another.

Suddenly Yang Shan walked up to the old man with a wine glass in his hand, "Old man, I wish you a long life, old man."

After Yang Shan finished speaking, he drank it all in one gulp.

"Okay, okay!" The old man still squinted his eyes, as if he couldn't see who was in front of him at all, but when Yang Shan turned around, he said, "Whose child is this, why can't he speak? I'm over 90 this year, and you wish me a long life, isn't this a curse that I don't have a few years to live?"

"Puchi!" Someone finally couldn't help laughing out loud.

Yang Shan ignored the other people's sneers, and continued, "I know someone wants to destroy me, but although his idea is beautiful, it's not as good as it should be. Some people say I'm not, but what qualifications does he have?" Speaking of me, which time did I not pay for his ancestor worship expenses?"

This obviously refers to Yang Wu. Besides him, who else can ask Yang Shan to pay for the ancestor worship expenses for him.

There was a burst of whispering at the scene, and Yang Wu's face turned livid.

"In previous years, I paid the most for ancestor worship expenses, but no one accepted my favor. This year, I simply covered all the expenses for ancestor worship, so as to save someone from taking my benefits behind my back and putting them in the open. I don't recognize it."

Yang Dongsheng gradually realized that before Yang Shan was arrested, he fell out with Yang Wu for some unknown reason.Few people knew about this matter, but Yang Shan didn't know why he went crazy and chose to expose it in public.

It was impossible to tell whether Yang Shan was really drunk, or whether he was going crazy because of drinking.

A few people wanted to stand up to stop them, but suddenly they heard a slap, and Yang Wu slapped the table.

"That's enough! Yang Shan, what do you look like now? In front of the old man, it's like swearing at a shrew. There's still no rules."

"Hmph!" Yang Shan snorted coldly.

"Yang Li, your father is drunk, send him back."

This meal, except for the old man who was leisurely drinking some wine and eating mutton, and before leaving, he wrapped some crabs and said he would bring them to his great-grandson, the rest of the meal was tasteless.

After Yang Shan left, Yang Wu didn't say again whether the expenses for the ancestor worship festival would be paid by Yang Shan alone or shared among all the people.

But not answering this is tantamount to tacitly acquiescing that Yang Shan has paid all the expenses for this ancestor worship festival.

Yang Dongsheng came home, ready to think about what happened tonight, just laying down on the bed, suddenly there was a knock on the door, "Boom, boom, boom!"

Yang Dongsheng opened the door, but he didn't see what the person who knocked on the door looked like, he could only see the part from the neck down.
