"He has severed ties with your second uncle, so logically speaking, he really can't enter the ancestral tomb. I'll discuss this matter with your second uncle later!"
Zhang Qingxiang seriously considered the feasibility of this matter.
"Xiangyang, are you asleep?"
The two are of similar age and grew up together. They might call each other "brother" in public, but when they meet in person they just call each other by their names.
"Xiangnan, why are you here at this time? What delicious food have you prepared today? The whole village can smell the fragrance."
Zhang Xiangyang came out from the house to greet them, and the two old brothers went into the house together.
"Roasted lamb, did you smell it? I just went out for a walk and no one asked me. I thought no one smelled it!"
Zhang Xiangnan did not hide anything.
"Nonsense, how could you not smell such a fragrant scent? Others don't dare to ask because of your identity and my nephew's ability."
Zhang Xiangyang moved closer to Zhang Xiangnan and smelled it.
“The taste of Moutai.”
"You've had enough to eat and drink, so why are you coming to my house? You're not just trying to make me jealous, are you?"
Zhang Xiangyang's resentful eyes and sour tone made her sound like an angry young wife.
And Zhang Xiangnan is undoubtedly a heartless man.
"Who said I'm full? Others may not know my alcohol tolerance, but don't you know it?
Just now, because Song Shouye was there, it was inappropriate to ask you to go. I just sent Shouye away, and didn’t I come to call you right away?
I've already arranged for the bricks, tiles, and cement, so we can start construction anytime. Let's drink and discuss what to do next."
Zhang Xiangnan pulled Zhang Xiangyang away. Zhang Xiangyang refused but did not slow down at all.
"Xiangnan, the Song Shouye you mentioned, is he the child my uncle brought back that year? Wasn't he said to have disappeared? When was he found?"
When Song Shouye disappeared, Zhang Qingchun mobilized the entire village to help find him, so Zhang Xiangyang still remembers him.
"Yes, that's him. The child missed his parents and ran to the cemetery alone. He accidentally fell into the river and was rescued by a Taoist priest who passed by. He grew up in the Taoist temple.
Some time ago, when Xiaoguang went into the mountains to hunt, the two met by chance.
Of the three courtyards built this time, one is for maintaining the business."
"Xiangnan, you have three children of your own, so try to spend your allowance on your own children.
Think about Zhang Xiangdong and Zhang Yuejiao. What have you gained in return for all your efforts? Why don't you learn your lesson? "
Zhang Xiangyang persuaded with great sorrow.
“People are different, and Shouye is no ungrateful kid.
Besides, I don’t have to pay for his yard, it’s all his own money.
Shouye learned a lot of kung fu in the Taoist temple, and last time he hunted two blind bears.
On the one hand, he killed the animals and pickled the bacon at home, and on the other hand, he asked Xiaoguang to take them to the factory to complete the task.
The money earned from the blind bear was used to build this yard. I just helped with the bricks, tiles, and cement."
As they were talking, they arrived at the door of their house and happened to meet the Zhang Shuguang brothers who had just finished taking a bath in the river.
"Dad, Uncle Xiangyang."
Zhang Shuguang greeted him.
"Your father insisted on dragging me over to talk about building a house."
Zhang Xiangyang saw that his two nephews were a little embarrassed.
It's already ten o'clock in the evening, and I still want to come here to drink and eat mutton. If the younger generation sees me, what will the children think of me?
"Uncle, you've come just in time. We've skewered a lot of lamb today, so there's still quite a bit left. I'll grill some for you and you can taste how salty it is."
No matter how bright the moonlight is at night, it is not as clear as during the day. Zhang Shuguang did not notice Zhang Xiangyang's embarrassment and pulled him into the yard.
"Uncle, please wait a moment. I'll light the fire. Xiaoli, go to the main room and get the remaining skewers of meat. Then go get a bottle of wine from grandpa."
Zhang Shuguang lit the charcoal fire and prepared various seasonings. Zhang Shengli also took out the lamb skewers and Maotai liquor.
"Uncle, is Jianguo asleep? Let him come over and try the lamb skewers. They are so delicious."
Zhang Shengli was not a stingy person and thought of his best friend.
After three years of exclusion and isolation, I realize more and more the value of true friendship.
"He's already gone to bed, don't worry about him."
If he comes here to eat and drink, he can barely find a reason to let the children come over to take advantage of the situation. Even if the relationship between the two families is very good, Zhang Xiangyang would not do such a thing.
"I really forgot about that kid, Xiaoli, when I went to your uncle's house, Jianguo was still awake. Go call him over!"
"good."
Before Zhang Xiangyang could stop him, Zhang Shengli had already run out of the house.
"Xiangnan, that's not how it works. Meat is so precious these days! We can't both come and eat it!"
Zhang Xiangyang felt a little uneasy.
"We grew up together, peed and played together, so it's unbelievable to talk about this."
"Yes, uncle, I'm not stupid. I can see how much you and aunt have taken care of us over the past few years. What's a bite of food to me?"
The sincere words of Zhang Xiangnan and his son made Zhang Xiangyang feel warm in his heart.
"Dad, Uncle Xiangnan."
"Brother, is this the grilled lamb kebab that Shengli mentioned?"
Zhang Jianguo followed Zhang Shengli in, greeted the elders, and then squatted next to Zhang Shuguang.
"Yes, this is grilled lamb kebab. Wait a moment, it will be ready soon."
Zhang Shuguang began to apply oil and sprinkle ingredients, and the rich aroma was once again stimulated.
“It smells so good.”
