"Uncle Lin, are you finished speaking?" Old Yang smiled innocently, nodded towards Uncle Lin, and opened his mouth.

"Now that you're finished, as the eldest brother of Zhenbang and the uncle to all in our Lao Yang family, being the oldest and highest in seniority, allow me to say a few words too."

Uncle Lin's eldest brother glanced at Old Yang, snorted, and said, “I respect you for your age and being a former champion scholar’s grandfather. If you want to say something, I won’t stop you,”

“But if you try to use your age or status as the father of a top scholar to pressure me, humph! I, Lin San, am not someone who is easily bullied. Being a top scholar is just an honor, it doesn't even come with an official position!”

Yang Huazhong frowned, wanting to speak, but Lao Yang stopped him with a look.

Lao Yang said to Lin San, "You can rest assured, old man I speak from the heart, I follow rules and regulations, I won't take advantage of my seniority."

Lin San raised an eyebrow, gesturing for Lao Yangtou to speak.

Old Yang smiled and said, “Earlier, your brother-in-law told me so many past events. I listened from beginning to end and understood everything.”

“Let’s be honest, Zhenbang wouldn't have achieved what he has today without the help of his in-laws. Hehe, I admit, our Zhenbang company wouldn’t be where it is today without the support of your Lin family.”

However, I think half of it, or more, has to be credited to Zhenbang's own ability...

"Ability?" Lin San couldn't sit still and interrupted Lao Yang's words, "What ability does Yang Zhenbang have? A joke..."

Old Yang was still smiling and said, “Lin Jia’s big uncle, before you were a junior speaking, this old man didn't interrupt you. I patiently listened to you finish your words.”

"This is the cultivation that an adult, especially a successful businessman like yourself, should have, wouldn't you agree?"

In a few words, Lao Yang made Lin San blush.

"You go on, you keep talking. I want to see what kind of story you come up with." Lin San said irritably.

Then Lao Yang continued, "Why do I say Zhenbang is capable? Because doing business isn't just about giving money and connections. You can't necessarily manage and operate it well just because of that."

“Because our Lao Yang family has many merchants, not just Zheng Bang. My granddaughter Qing’er, I presume Uncle Lin of the Lin family should also have heard of her. The business my Qing’er runs is certainly not inferior to your Lin family's. Even the emperor and the imperial concubines' perfumes are supplied exclusively by my Qing’er!”

Speaking of this, Lin San dared not retort.

He even glanced at his wife and daughter sitting beside him. The mother and daughter couldn't get through the summer heat every year without Yangjia Qing'er's mosquito repellent and anti-itch lotion.

There's a saying that goes, "Even if you coat mud in gold, it won't stick to the wall." If our Zhenbang doesn't have the business sense, even if you gave him mountains of gold and silver, it would be useless.

"This is one, the second is, why do I say he has the ability and courage?"

“If he wasn't capable and courageous, your sister wouldn't have left the position of a county magistrate's wife to marry him, a poor boy.”

"This isn't just because Zhenbang is capable, it also shows that your sister has good taste. Now you're saying Zhenbang is worthless, doesn't that mean your sister has no eye for talent?"

"You are her elder brother. This marriage was arranged by your parents when they were alive. She is blind, and as her older brother, and with your deceased parents... well, I won't say more."

Then you, Lin San, are blind and foolish! Your parents are the same!

Lin San ran into a tough nut to crack, his face contorted with anger.

He picked up the teacup in front of him and drank several large gulps, but still couldn't calm the anger in his heart.

At that moment, the woman sitting beside him spoke.

>

“Brother Yang, you’re right. My husband spoke out of anger earlier,” the woman said with a smile, softly.

“If my husband truly believed that Zhēnbāng was utterly useless, he wouldn't have helped him with his business in the first place. Our deceased grandparents wouldn't have agreed to marry our younger daughter to Zhēnbāng either.” The woman said.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

This statement is somewhat agreeable.

>

Elder Yang nodded, and Young Master Yang's face eased a little.

The woman glanced at Lin San again, then continued.

“It’s just that Yang Zhenbang has gone too far this time. Not only did he cheat outside, but he also locked my sister in the shed.”

Between husband and wife, what's there not to be pleasant about? Sit down, have a cup of tea, and talk it out slowly.

“As a husband, if you lock your wife up in the firewood shed for another woman, it's not just making your wife suffer, but also losing face for yourself and bringing shame to our Lin family.”

"So we definitely had to come here today, if Yang Zhenbang is truly capable and hasn't let us down."

“Then he shouldn't be locking people up and hiding himself away. He should come out and give us an explanation face to face!” The woman said, a smile on her face that held both amusement and authority.

On the opposite side, the three men led by Lao Yang were all secretly astonished in their hearts. This woman was a formidable character.

Unlike Lin San, who spoke and then dug his own grave, this woman cleverly used a tactic of retreat to advance and appeasement as a means of attack.

Yang Huazhong was a little anxious and unconsciously looked toward the doorway.

Where is Qing'er? Why hasn't she come yet?

At this moment, if Qing'er were here, she would surely be able to outsmart them with her words.

At the moment when Yang Huazhong was searching for Yang Ruqing everywhere, Yang Ruqing had quietly left the small courtyard of the Yang family.

She originally planned to go in and verbally spar with the Lin couple, but after thinking about it, she felt that this kind of verbal sparring, regardless of win or loss, didn't make much sense.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Because, to put it plainly, Yang Zhenbang and his wife Lin were having a fight.

One is Yang Daca's father, and the other is Yang Daca's mother. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

This time, it seems like things are getting out of hand. Who knows, after this hurdle, maybe they'll be back to being good friends?

What good can come of them meddling blindly then?

As for this Yang Zhenbang, he's not a good person either. Calling him Uncle is all out of respect for his father, Old Yang.

In the business world, they had never collaborated. He had also never looked after her before.

Yang Ruoqing only did things that benefited her, so now, she ran out of Old Yang's courtyard to do something else.

In the main hall of Old Yang's house, Old Yang and his wife continued to fight without Young Yang Rao arriving.

This time, it was Yang's turn to speak.

"Zhenbang isn't hiding and afraid to see you. To be honest, Zhenbang deliberately walked away and doesn't want to see you." Little Lao Yang said.

All three members of Lin's family furrowed their brows at the same time.

Mrs. Lin patted the table and said to the woman, "Did you hear that? They deliberately ignored us. How rude..."

The woman also had a face full of disappointment.

Yang Huazhong said, “Don’t blame my cousin for being rude. It’s really his sister-in-law who was at fault first. As a daughter-in-law, she smashed her mother-in-law's house to pieces!”

A woman said, "My sister-in-law said that she wasn't going after the old lady, she was mainly angered by Yang Zhenbang..."

Regardless of who angered her, she smashed the old woman's house and even fainted the old woman from anger. Everyone in our village knows this, sister-in-law, if you don't believe me, go ask others! See if I, Yang Huazhong, am lying!
