Siheyuan: tomb robbing? I am serious about hunting.

Chapter 401 Fire in the Backyard

The marriage of Yan Bugui's youngest son was a great joy, and Yan Bugui was so happy these days that he couldn't stop smiling, praising his son's promising future to everyone he met. However, as the wedding preparations progressed, contradictions gradually emerged.

The youngest son looked at the wedding arrangement arranged by Yan Bugui, the simple venue, the simple decoration, and the pitiful banquet dishes, and his dissatisfaction became stronger and stronger. Finally, on the eve of the wedding, the youngest son could no longer bear it and rushed into Yan Bugui's room.

"Dad, this wedding is too shabby! I will only get married once in my life, can't you be more generous?" the younger son said angrily.

Upon hearing this, Yan Bugui's eyes widened immediately: "Poor? How is it shabby? I have made all these arrangements carefully and saved as much as possible. How can you be so ignorant?"

"I'm ignorant? Look at other people's weddings, which one isn't lively and glorious? Then look at our family, what is it like?" The younger son became more and more excited as he spoke.

Yan Bugui also got angry: "Humph, other people's families are other people's families, and our family has our own situation. I am thinking about the future, and I can't be extravagant."

"You'll know what will happen in the future. Now that my wedding has turned out like this, how can I hold my head up in front of my relatives and friends in the future?" The younger son looked aggrieved.

"Why are you so vain, kid? The wedding is just a formality. What's important is that you live a good life in the future." Yan Bugui tried to persuade his younger son.

But the younger son simply wouldn't listen: "Formalities? This formality is too ugly! You are just stingy and don't want to spend money."

The two of them argued back and forth, and the noise became louder and louder. Yan Bugui's wife was so anxious that she was running around in circles, but she didn't know how to stop the quarrel.

"Stop arguing. It's such a happy day. Why can't you just talk it out calmly?" the wife tried to persuade them.

"Talk nicely? He doesn't understand my good intentions at all." Yan Bugui said.

"I don't understand? I only know that you messed up my wedding." The younger son retorted.

At this time, Yan Bugui's eldest son heard the quarrel and rushed over. After understanding the situation, he sighed and said, "Dad, what my brother said makes sense. This wedding is indeed a bit too simple. After all, it is a lifelong event. Can't you be a little more generous?"

Seeing that both of his sons were against him, Yan Bugui became even angrier: "You don't understand. You have to be frugal when living. I am doing this for your own good."

However, the younger son was not satisfied: "For our own good? You are being selfish and only want to save money for yourself."

The quarrel lasted for a long time. Finally, after the persuasion of Yan Bugui's wife and eldest son, the youngest son reluctantly agreed to this simple wedding. But his dissatisfaction did not disappear, and he was depressed throughout the wedding. Although Yan Bugui insisted on his own approach on the surface, he felt a little guilty in his heart. Although the wedding went smoothly, it left a rift in the family that was difficult to heal.

After the wedding, the youngest son's dissatisfaction still permeated the entire family. Although Yan Bugui felt that his actions were for the long-term consideration of the family, he was inevitably shaken when he saw his youngest son's lost look.

The youngest son returned to his room, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt wronged. He and his wife sat by the bed in silence. His wife looked at him and comforted him softly, "Don't be too sad, maybe our dad has his own difficulties."

"The difficulty? He is just stingy and doesn't want to spend money. This wedding made me lose face in front of relatives and friends." The youngest son said angrily.

"Okay, okay, don't be angry. Let's live a good life from now on. Living a good life is better than anything else." The wife continued to comfort him.

But the younger son could not get over it. He felt that his life was ruined by his father, and his resentment towards Yan Bugui grew deeper and deeper.

Yan Bugui was also reflecting on his own behavior. He knew that his stinginess might have caused his youngest son to suffer, but he felt that he was not wrong. In his opinion, one must be thrifty in life and not waste money.

"Old man, don't be so stubborn. A child's wedding only comes once in a lifetime. He must feel bad if you make it so shabby." said Yan Bugui's wife.

"How am I stubborn? I'm doing this for their own good. There will be many places where we will need money in the future. If we don't save money now, what will we do in the future?" Yan Bugui retorted.

"That's true, but you also have to consider the child's feelings. Look how sad he is now," said the wife.

Yan Bugui was silent for a while, feeling somewhat guilty. But he still said stubbornly: "Why should he be sad? I am doing this for his own good. When he understands, he will know my painstaking efforts."

However, the younger son did not let it go so easily. In the following days, his attitude towards Yan Bugui became cold. Every time he saw Yan Bugui, he deliberately avoided him and was unwilling to talk to him.

Yan Bugui also felt the change in his youngest son, but he didn't know how to make up for it. He wanted to talk to his youngest son, but he was afraid that his son would not appreciate it. In this way, the relationship between father and son reached a deadlock.

The neighbors of the courtyard also knew about the conflict between Yan Bugui and his youngest son. Some people thought Yan Bugui had gone too far, while others thought his youngest son was ignorant. But no matter what they said, they could not resolve the conflict between the father and son.

One day, Sha Zhu ran into his youngest son in the yard. Seeing his youngest son's sad face, Sha Zhu asked with concern, "What's wrong? You just got married, why are you unhappy?"

The youngest son sighed and told Sha Zhu about the conflict between him and Yan Bugui. Sha Zhu smiled and said, "Don't be too angry. The third uncle is just that kind of person. He is used to being stingy. But he is also doing this for your own good. He is afraid that you will have a hard time in the future."

"For my own good? He is just selfish and only thinks about saving money for himself," said the youngest son.

"You can't say that. Third Uncle has also been through hard times and knows how difficult life is. His method may be wrong, but his starting point is good." Sha Zhu said.

The younger son felt a little relieved after hearing what Sha Zhu said, but he still felt that Yan Bugui had gone too far.

Sha Zhu added: "Don't be angry with Uncle San all the time. After all, he is your father and you will live together in the future. Find an opportunity to have a good talk with him and tell him your thoughts. Maybe he will understand you."

The younger son thought about it and felt that what Sha Zhu said made sense. He decided to find an opportunity to have a good talk with Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui was also worried about how to improve his relationship with his youngest son. He thought of Yi Zhonghai, thinking that Yi Zhonghai was the eldest uncle in the courtyard and should be able to help him with some ideas.

Yan Bugui found Yi Zhonghai and told him about the conflict between himself and his youngest son. Yi Zhonghai frowned and said, "You did something wrong. A child's wedding only happens once in his life, and you made it so shabby. He must feel bad."

"I also know that I may have gone a little too far, but I am doing it for their own good. There will be many places to spend money in the future. If we don't save money now, what will we do in the future?" Yan Bugui said.
