Chapter 1512: Taking Sides
"It’s true, you start sweating as soon as you move, what mood is there left to play?"
"We can go visit my big brother, he hasn’t been home since last year. I haven’t seen him since I came back."
Feifei still shook her head, "You guys go, I’m not going."
Yang Yujie thought to herself, big brother was right. Feifei is as stubborn as always, I can’t change her mind.
Lunch was still cold noodles, but not handmade noodles, rather quick-cook noodles.
However, the two girls also made some pancakes, since there were more boys, fearing they might not get enough to eat.
In the evening, Yang Yujie and the others didn’t stay for dinner, today was the day everyone went to her grandfather’s house for a meal.
In the evening, Han Xiangjun brought over a piano. "Feifei, it’s not new, but it’s a good one."
"Thank you, Uncle Han."
"Are you still being polite to me? Becoming more of a stranger.
Let me tell you, I know how to play, I’ll try it later."
"Uncle Han, you can play this too?"
"Yes, I learned when I was young, and the teacher said I had some talent. But I didn’t really like it. As long as I can play, that’s enough."
After the family finished eating, Old Yang came by to pick up his two sons, but they wouldn’t leave.
A bunch of kids gathered around Han Xiangjun playing the piano.
Feifei thought, Han Xiangjun is playing pretty well, although a little rusty, being able to play like this is really good.
"Feifei, how is it?"
Feifei led the applause. The other kids followed suit and clapped along.

Wei Kaiyun looked at Han Xiangjun’s smug face and felt very agitated.
But this was beyond him. It’s not something you can be envious about, because the differences in their status growing up were worlds apart. Han Xiangjun was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, his life has been smooth sailing.
Old Yang’s two sons had a miserable childhood, being able to eat their fill or take a day’s rest was already very good.
"Feifei, let Yu Jie contact the teacher quickly."
"Alright, Yu Jie will be coming over tomorrow."
"Feifei, do you want to try how it feels?"
Wherever Feifei was, even Zhibin had to step aside; big and small kids were already used to it.
Feifei smiled, nodded, and sat down, pressing a key with just one finger. She didn’t dare put both hands on the keyboard, afraid Han Xiangjun might suspect something.
But this piano is really good, it looks like it’s been around for years, and very well maintained. It’s clearly an item of someone who loves the piano.
Yang Yujie was sitting in the living room, bored, flipping through a newspaper. The relationships between these cousins were really quite ordinary. Not close at all, just having the same last name Yang.
Si Jia came over, "Sister, are you going to Uncle Wei’s house tomorrow? I want to go."
"Yes, just let your aunt know, I’ll come pick you up tomorrow."
The little girl was satisfied with what she heard and ran off smiling.
Tao YanZhen certainly wouldn’t refuse. The little girl ran back and forth, "Sister, my mom agreed, my brother’s also coming along."
Yang Yujie nodded, tomorrow she’ll take both siblings over together.
Dinner began, and after it started, the four daughters-in-law came out of the kitchen, which is Yang Jiu Long’s rule. Even if it’s just making one dish, you must cook.
Eating time was very quiet, the kids each ate the dishes near them.
After dinner, the men went into the study to report work to Yang Jiu Long, while the women sat in the living room, chatting about household matters.
They weren’t too warm with each other, but it’s better than sitting in silence.
Si Jia leaned against Yang Yujie’s side, quietly telling jokes, the relationship between the two sisters was much better than with others.
This was normal, as Yang Yujie had been taking care of their siblings since they were young.
"Elder sister-in-law, Yu Jie is already eighteen. It’s time to find someone for her, right?"
"Still young, no hurry." Wu Fengying didn’t want to discuss this topic at all.
"Not that young, elder sister-in-law, my colleague’s son is twenty this year and handsome, how about introducing him?"
Wu Fengying sneered, "Your colleague? What kind of person is that? Are you out of your mind wanting to introduce someone like that to my daughter?"
The second daughter-in-law, Shi Shuwen, immediately changed her face. In the end, she didn’t say anything.
This matter was brought up by a colleague, and she thought it wasn’t a big deal, so she took the chance to mention it. But she didn’t expect Wu Fengying to be so rude, showing no respect at all.
"Second sister-in-law, you’re worrying over nothing. How could elder sister-in-law let Yu Jie marry beneath her?"
"Third sister-in-law you said it right, my daughter’s future marriage must be based on family background, character, and appearance. None of these can fall short."
The reason Wu Fengying said this was to let them know, don’t bring up anything shabby or rotten.
"Hehe, my niece indeed deserves that." Du Meilan’s words had a bit of a sarcastic tone.
The Yang family enforced very strict discipline, even if Yang Yujie was angry, she wouldn’t oppose her elders.
Tao YanZhen laughed, "Isn’t that so? My Yu Jie’s future partner, if their background, character, and appearance are not good, even I as her fourth aunt wouldn’t agree."
Du Meilan and Shi Shuwen both knew this fourth daughter-in-law had a good family background and was very favored by the father-in-law. So even if they were unsatisfied, they didn’t say anything.
They also knew, Yu Jie had a good relationship with her, and it wouldn’t be easy to spite the eldest’s family.
The children were each with their own families, seldom interacting.
Liu Hong liked seeing their three sisters-in-law in discord, but she wasn’t happy about her daughter-in-law getting involved.
Why interfere in the eldest’s family? Let them fight, isn’t it fun to watch? This fool insists on picking sides.
Now the living room was silent, everyone minding their own business.
An hour later, the three brothers came out of the study.
Three families stood up, "Sister, don’t forget to pick me up."
"Alright, I’ll be here by seven tomorrow morning, don’t be late."
"I definitely won’t be late."
Wu Fengying told Yang Chenggong about what happened earlier, "I’m telling you, Yu Jie is grown up, many people are interested, so keep your guard up, don’t listen to anyone."
"Got it, got it. Sigh, I’m really getting old, people are now thinking about my daughter."
Wu Fengying ignored him, even though the oldest son was already twenty, he never says anything.
Yang Yujie was very unhappy, so after showering she called her big brother.
"What’s wrong?"
"Brother, that disgusting woman actually has her sights set on me."
"Don’t worry, she is just talking. Without grandfather’s approval, she is just trying to annoy mom."
"But I’m still upset."
"Ignoring her is the best revenge."
"Brother, Feifei really won’t go."
Yang Run Tai chuckled, he knew Feifei wouldn’t come, that little girl didn’t want to suffer. Staying at home, she definitely wouldn’t endure discomfort just to visit him.
