Chapter 447 He's here to draw!
Su Yang nodded. It was not a problem for him to have a few words with Si Xuezhong, but he dared not act rashly with Yang Qing. If this guy got crazy, he could really take a gun and kill his entire family.
Su Yang strolled to the dining table, and Si Yao was serving dishes to the table.
"Do you need my help?"
Su Yang looked at Si Yao, who was so hot that she quickly pinched her ears: "No need, your task today is to sit here and eat. I tell you, my second aunt's cooking skills are rare in heaven and earth!"
“Ordinary people can’t eat it!”
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, a burst of laughter came from behind.
"Yaoyao, your second aunt may not even know that she has a loyal fan like you!"
Si Dongheng, with a smile on his face, also came out with a plate of food. Today is New Year's Eve, so there are many dishes.
There are so many people in the Si family, so they cooked ten dishes and one soup, but they were all home-cooked dishes, nothing special. At most, the ingredients were fresher and the things were more expensive. As for orchid bear paws, steamed camel hump, and clear soup flying dragon, they were not there at all.
Some only have chicken stewed with mushrooms, pickled cabbage and pork, braised fish...
Su Yang sat at the table until the last dish was served. Then Si Yao's second aunt took off her apron, wiped her hands, and walked out of the kitchen happily.
“I made a few simple dishes…”
“I don’t know if it fits.”
"Come to think of it, my sister-in-law was the one who cooked during the Chinese New Year in the past few years. She has been abroad for the past few years and has not come back for the Chinese New Year reunion. She finally came back this year, and I don't know how my sister-in-law is doing down there."
Si Dongheng's wife is a middle-aged woman in her fifties with a kind face. The first time Su Yang saw this woman, he could see no edges or corners in her and she was extremely smooth. This was not because of too much experience, but because Si Dongheng's wife herself did not have much temper. In addition to her stable emotions, she also had some compassion.
As soon as she opened her mouth, Si Xuezhong fell silent, and Si Yao, who was standing next to him, also had red eyes.
Second Aunt realized that she had said the wrong thing and quickly gave a bitter smile, "You guys eat first, eat first, I'll go call Third Sister, she's been in the ancestral hall, she's been there all day, why didn't she come out when it's almost time for dinner."
Second Aunt said this and walked towards the ancestral hall.
Yang Qing next to him took the rice bowl, picked up a few pieces of food with his chopsticks, and served another bowl of rice.
"Happy New Year to Director Si and Second Master. I won't bother you any more."
"I'll go back to my concierge to eat, it's also good..."
Si Dongheng stood up and wanted to persuade him, but he saw Yang Qing had already picked up the bowl: "Second Master, don't say anything. I'm here, so it's not convenient for you to talk. Besides, we have to drink later, and it won't work if there's no one watching the door."
"It's Chinese New Year, there are a lot of cars outside, what if something gets scratched or hit, and the person runs away!"
"Even if nothing happens, it would be bad if someone robs you..."
"Eat, eat."
Si Dongheng nodded and could only sit down with sobs.
Ever since he could remember, Yang Qing had been with his brother. Later, after he bought this old house, he had been living in the gatehouse. This person was very strange. Si Dongheng didn't know where he came from or what he was doing here, but he had lived here for more than ten years, and they didn't treat Yang Qing as an outsider.
Second Aunt helped Si Ruyun walk out of the ancestral hall. On New Year's Eve, Si Ruyun was dressed in plain clothes, sitting at the dining table, and didn't say a word.
Second Aunt also sat down and asked Si Jing, who had been reading a book next to her, to move to another seat.
Seven people were sitting in the courtyard of the Si family's old house at once. Although it was not crowded, it was unusually lively.
Si Xuezhong opened a bottle of wine and poured seven glasses.
"It's the New Year..."
"Let's celebrate this rare reunion of our Si family!"
He handed the wine glasses to Si Dongheng, Si Jing, Si Ruyun, Second Aunt, Si Yao, and then the last glass to Su Yang. Su Yang took the glass and a strong smell of alcohol wafted out.
Si Xuezhong stood up and raised his glass: "Drink!"
He raised his wine glass, a one-liang glass, and drank it all in one gulp. The rich liquor went down his throat like a ball of fire. He took a sip but did not put down the glass. He looked around at the seven people at the table. It was really strange, as if there were only these people in this house.
Si Yao's mother passed away, and then Si Zhen came. After Si Zhen passed away, Su Yang came...
In the past, the Si family always had goals and hopes. The three brothers and sisters seemed to have been climbing and striving forward, and each had a bright future.
But today, after drinking this glass of wine, he said that he was celebrating the rare reunion of the Si family.
But I was thinking that this might be the last time the Si family would be reunited...
Whether he saves Si Yao and sacrifices the entire Si family, or gives up Si Yao and lets the Si family survive, the outcome is the same for him.
Si Yao's mother is dead...
Today, is it Si Yao's turn again?
Su Yang also drank the wine in one gulp. He took a few bites of the food and had to say that Second Aunt Si Yao's cooking skills were really good. However, no matter how delicious the food was, it could not overcome the silence at the table.
Si Xuezhong just buried his head in drinking. Si Dongheng wanted to ease the atmosphere, but he was powerless. He understood Si Xuezhong's worries even more, but he couldn't give up the Si family's decades-long foundation, or even risk the lives of his family of three, just for Si Yao.
Si Ruyun, who was standing by, was eating in silence.
Just like that, from the beginning to the end of the meal, no one opened their mouths or said a word.
It was not until everyone had finished their meal and left the table that Si Xuezhong grabbed Su Yang. The strong smell of alcohol came straight to him.
"Su Yang!"
"You can't imagine the methods used by the Si Group, and I don't want to use them on you!"
"Promise me that you will give up these three projects and stay away from Daheng Group!"
"Just think of it as Si Yao's!"
Su Yang sighed: "I can guess that Director Si has his own difficulties, but any difficulties are not a reason for you to give up Si Yao for the sake of profit."
"I respect your choice, but I won't agree to your conditions. You want these three projects, and I want them too!"
"You have any tricks, just come and I will take them all!"
Si Xuezhong's hands became stronger and stronger. He pressed down on Su Yang's arm and squeezed it so hard that it hurt.
Si Xuezhong looked directly into Su Yang's eyes: "Do we really have to tear each other apart? Do you really think you can win? I just don't want any unexpected risks to occur, so I chose to advise you to stay away from Daheng Group!"
"I don't want Si Yao to come and beg me to let you go!"
Su Yang grabbed Si Xuezhong's wrist, and with greater force, pried his hand apart and placed it on the stool.
"I'm waiting for Director Si!"
He stood up, called Si Yao, and walked towards the door of the Si family's old house without looking back.
Not to mention that he can't give up, even if he can give up, he won't give up!
Some people have been in high positions for too long and always think that the world revolves around them. Only when they are slapped in the face by someone do they realize that they have been off the ground for too long.
He doesn't care about others, but he is the one who slaps Si Xuezhong in the face!
