Chapter 274 The Population of the Yang Family
The Yang family didn't have too many rules, so they didn't use curtains or screens to separate the guests during meals.
As for the women, Mother Zhu, along with Zhu Qingqing and Zhu Yingying, accompanied the Old Lady and the Second Lady, and sat around a table with Xiu Gu and Mother Zhang. They were all chatting quietly or laughing, creating a harmonious and warm atmosphere.
The old lady praised the chicken soup cooked with fungi, especially the fresh vegetables.
Zhu Yingying took bowls and plates to the red soup area and blanched some meat for them to taste. The old lady still thought the clear soup was delicious, but the second lady tasted it and felt that she could accept it and could eat spicy food in the future.
Zhu Qingqing: "It's like saying everyone has their own preferences. When we open the shop, I'll use a special pot to make a variety of flavors at the same time to satisfy different people's needs."
Second Madam: "I always benefit a lot from listening to Master Zhu."
Zhu Qingqing: "No, I will still have to rely on the Second Madam in the future. The Second Master said that the specific matters of future cooperation will be handed over to the Second Madam. So I wish us a happy cooperation and prosperous business in advance."
As he spoke, he picked up the teacup in his hand.
The Second Lady said: "Master Zhu, please give us more guidance. Let's have a pleasant cooperation and a prosperous business."
Meanwhile, Wu Di was like a cheerful butterfly, flitting among the young ladies from the Yang family. With a smile on her face, she enthusiastically introduced the unique way to eat hot pot to them. Not only that, she also occasionally made some novel and interesting remarks, making the girls giggle and laugh like silver bells.
Looking back at Yang Jiu and Wang Xiangdong, they were sitting with the male members of the Yang family. Wang Xiangdong's eyes were sharp as he listened attentively to the conversations around him. In a short while, he had a complete picture of the Yang family's demographics. It turned out that Old Man Yang had two sons and one daughter. His eldest daughter, Yang Jinhua, was the eldest. She had married her childhood sweetheart, Sun Peng, from Wanfu Village in Ning County. The couple enjoyed a happy married life, running a shop in their hometown of Ning County and helping to manage the farm in Wanfu Village. Their lives were prosperous and fulfilling.
Before this, Yang Huaian had already written a letter back home, asking his daughter and son-in-law to buy a batch of grain and send it to the capital as soon as possible. He also asked them to bring their grandchildren and spend the Spring Festival together in the capital. It seemed that it wouldn't be long before the family would be reunited here to welcome the New Year together!
Back then, Yang Huaian and his wife had left their daughter, Yang Jinhua, behind in their hometown. The couple followed the late emperor on his journeys, wandering the land, and after enduring countless hardships and dangers, they welcomed the births of their eldest son, Yang Xu, and the second son, Yang Feng. Because of this, they were significantly younger than their elder sister, Yang Jinhua.
Let's talk about this old man, Yang Xu. He currently serves as a military officer in the warehouse department of Prince Xian's palace. He has two sons. The eldest is already twelve years old, and the younger is ten. Both children are currently studying diligently at the Yang Family Academy.
Second Master Yang Feng, meanwhile, held a rather important position—Team Leader Yang! His primary responsibility was to lead the Yang family's caravans on frequent trips between Tubo and the prefectural capital. Second Master Yang Feng also had a son and a daughter. His eldest daughter was ten years old, while his youngest son was only five years old and had just begun elementary school.
Furthermore, many members of the Yang family had fought alongside Old Master Yang on the battlefield. Among them were Zhongbo, Yang San's father Yongbo, and Yang Jiu's father Renshu, all of whom were outstanding figures. It was precisely because of this special relationship that, even though Yang San, Yang Wu, and Yang Jiu were not biological brothers with Captain Yang, their friendship was incredibly deep, like that of brothers.
