After Yang Jun saw off the guests, he returned to the front yard.
There were still a lot of people in the yard at this time, but most of them were people from this hospital. Everyone helped clear away the tables, chairs and benches and clean up.
The third uncle held the account book, and Xu Damao held a bulging leather bag and called Yang Jun over.
Yang Jun knew that an account was about to be paid, but he did not rush to look at the account book, but gave each of them a cigarette.
"Third uncle, you have been tired, and Damao has also worked hard to reconcile as brothers."
"It's not hard, it's not hard."
The third uncle, Yan Fugui, waved his hands repeatedly and said with excitement: "This is the most enjoyable time I have ever had in keeping accounts in my life. My hands are so weak."
Xu Damao was dissatisfied and said: "Hey, third uncle, no matter how tired your hands are, are they as tired as mine? My hands are still trembling."
Yan Jiecheng curled his lips and said, "This is a typical example of you counting money until your hands get cramps."
"Thank you for your hard work. Let's have a drink later." Yang Jun said quickly.
Next, the four people sat at the account table and began to hand over the account books and money.
Even Yang Jun was shocked by this account. He received a total of more than 18,000 in gift money. He quickly flipped through the account book and found that most of the accounts belonged to the big leader and his comrades.
In fact, there is no need to check the accounts one by one. The third uncle and Xu Damao have checked these numbers many times, so there is no chance of mistakes.
There were many people gathered around to watch their account. Everyone looked at the piles of banknotes in their wallets with envy, their eyes gleaming.
Others reminded Yang Jun to deposit the money in the bank as it would not be safe to leave it at home.
After handing over the accounts to the third uncle and the others, Yang Jun called the cook aside again.
You have to pay for a banquet. According to the rules of the Four Nine Cities, a table of food and drinks only costs 2 to 5 yuan depending on the size. Although Yang Jun's banquet was not of the highest standard, it was still considered high-end.
"Junzi, let's calculate it as three yuan and a half per table. There are thirty tables in total." Silly Zhu rubbed his hands, glanced at him, and said sheepishly.
Silly Zhu can help for free, but the other people cooking with him must not let others work in vain for two days.
Yang Jun knew that three dollars and a half for a table was considered low. Silly Zhu was using the hard work of his group as a favor. However, he had been working to death for two days, so Yang Jun naturally couldn't treat him badly.
people.
"Brother Zhuzi, I know the market price. Instead of three and a half dollars, let's round it up, just four dollars."
"Thirty banquet tables, a total of one hundred and twenty yuan."
Yang Jun did not give Silly Zhu a chance to speak, and directly took out 120 yuan from the gift bag and handed it over.
Then, Yang Jun handed over a cigarette from the remaining cigarettes on the account table and asked them to share it.
Yang Jun called the man who rented pipe tools again. The master of the pipe tools was named Li. He was a kind man and knew how to do things. Before Yang Jun took out his cigarette, he had already handed it to him.
You also have to pay to use other people's tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans, 40 cents for a table and 30 banquet tables, a total of 12 yuan.
Yang Jun gave the money to the family and also gave a bag of money to the front door.
After finishing these trivial matters, I looked at the sky and saw that it was still early, so I deliberately loudly said to the second uncle Liu Haizhong who was directing everyone to clean the yard,
"Second uncle, please keep an eye on it first. I'll go to the bank to deposit the money first."
"Go, I have everything here."
The reason why Yang Jun told people in the yard to go to the bank to deposit money was because he wanted to get the news out through them.
I've deposited the money in the bank, so those with bad intentions should stop trying to take advantage of him.
There were many people attending the wedding today. Everyone witnessed Yang Jun receiving tens of thousands of yuan in gifts, and some of them had evil intentions.
If Yang Jun leaves money at home, someone will probably come to his door at night.
However, these Yang Jun were not worried. After all, it was a courtyard house. It was locked at night and no one could come in. However, it was really hard for people to feel at ease to leave such a large amount of money at home. It was better to deposit it directly in the bank.
Yang Jun carried a bag and drove directly out of the alley.
Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and the people at the bank have already gone to work.
Yang Jun did not put the gift money into the space. The reason why he chose to deposit it in the bank was to show it to others. He couldn't just take it out of the space whenever he needed money. He wanted to deposit the money in the bank in order to use it in the future.
Just in case, lest anyone suspect that his money came from improper sources.
After saving the money, Yang Jun got out easily and started the car to go back to the courtyard.
After returning to the yard, the second uncle and the others had already started eating.
The few people at the table, including the chef and the second uncle, had been busy all day and had not touched anything yet, and they had just eaten now.
Silhu made a total of thirty banquets, of which two were left. One was for the helpers, and the other had been sent to Yang Jun's home.
Yang Jun returned to the backyard, brought two large front doors from home and placed them on the table. He chatted with the second uncle and the third uncle for a while, then said a few words of thanks before returning to the backyard.
When Yang Jun returned to the old house, the whole family was waiting for him to start a banquet.
Wang Yuying's wife, Yi Qiushui, Yang Dong and Yang Anguo's father and son were also present.
As soon as Yang Jun arrived, Wang Yuying announced the opening of the banquet.
Yang Jun first said a few polite words, and then toasted to his second uncle Yang Dong.
"Second uncle, Anguo, thank you for coming all the way to attend the wedding."
"It was so hard, I couldn't help with anything, and I only had two meals."
Yang Dong's face turned red and he said a little embarrassed.
"You are always a distinguished guest. I am satisfied that you can come to my wedding. Why can I ask you to help me?"
Yang Junkuan explained.
"That's okay, my second uncle won't be polite to you anymore. We are all members of our own family."
After listening to Yang Jun's words, Yang Dong's honest face finally showed a smile.
Then, Yang Dong took out a crumpled ten-yuan note from his clothes and handed it over.
"Jun'er, don't think that your second uncle is poor. This is just my wish."
"I was supposed to go to the cashier's table to give a gift, but I was afraid of embarrassing you, so..."
Yang Dong held the crumpled banknote in his hand and said awkwardly.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Yang Jun took a look at Yang Dong’s old hands that had been digging in the soil all day long. They were dark, with a layer of calluses on them, and each of his ten fingers
There are cracks to varying degrees, and in some cracks you can even see red flesh.
He was also a rural child in his previous life. He knew the hardships of farmers and could appreciate the difficulty of digging for food in the soil.
Especially in the current rural areas, people work very hard every day. An adult laborer works hard from morning to night, but he can only earn a full work point. One work point only costs more than 10 cents. A full work point can be calculated in a month.
The most you can earn is six yuan.
What can you do with six dollars?
For Yang Jun, it’s just a pack of Chinese cigarettes (supplied internally).
But for Yang Dong, that is all his savings and the family's entire source of living this month.
Oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, food, clothing, tuition fees, and favors are all spread out, and it is simply not enough to make a base.
God knows how long it took him to save these ten dollars.
Yang Jun looked at the second uncle in front of him, who had a face that was somewhat similar to his father's. He felt heartbroken. He pushed the money back and pretended to be angry.
"Second uncle, what are you doing? There are no rules for giving gifts to your own family."
No matter when, except for trivial matters, as long as it is a red event, even one's own uncle must pay tribute, and the gift given by one's own uncle must not be lower than that of outsiders, otherwise he will be laughed at.
Although their surname is Yang, they belong to two families. What's more, the two families are thousands of miles apart, and there is no custom of exempting gifts.
However, Yang Jun felt sorry for Yang Dong and deliberately said that his family did not have the custom of giving gifts.
He couldn't be so cruel as to accept the ten yuan. No matter from which aspect, it couldn't be justified.
When Yang Dong heard this, he immediately said anxiously: "Jun'er, this money is not a gift, but a little thought from my second uncle. You can buy a few feet of floral cloth for your niece-in-law to make new clothes."
Wang Yuying saw them pushing and pushing, so she winked at Yang Jun and said,
"Junzi, this is also your second uncle's wish, just accept it."
Yang Jun was stunned when he heard this, but he soon understood.
After all, I am too young and don’t quite understand the human nature and sophistication in this.
If he must refuse to accept the money, it would make it impossible for Yang Dong to come to Taiwan.
After Yang Jun figured out the joints inside, he accepted the money.
He sympathized with Yang Dong from the bottom of his heart, but he could make amends for his second uncle elsewhere.
When the second uncle saw Yang Jun accepting the money, his red face finally showed a smile.
