Chapter 157: 150, Big Brother doesn't seem like a person who's playing the field (asking for monthly passes)
"Huh?"
"Big brother??"
Yang Peng was stunned for a moment, then said to his wife Tian Shasha, "If it really is my ex-girlfriend, big brother wouldn't know her!"
"Brother-in-law, your big brother contributed fifty thousand!"
Tian Miaomiao added another sentence.
"What!"
"Fifty thousand???"
Yang Peng and his wife Tian Shasha exclaimed in unison.
"Miaomiao, are you sure it's not five thousand??"
After a moment of shock, Yang Peng asked.
His big brother Yang Hao contributing five thousand he could understand, since their old dad had helped his big brother before, and he had always had a good relationship with his big brother.
But fifty thousand was beyond his expectations!
"It's not five thousand, it's fifty thousand!" Tian Miaomiao confirmed.
"Contributed fifty thousand as a gift?"
"That's way too much!"
Tian Shasha, who had come to her senses, wore a look of disbelief on her face.
"I have never seen anyone contribute so much at a full-month celebration!"
Sun Qingmei chimed in.
"Oh, brother-in-law, your big brother's girlfriend also contributed ten thousand." Tian Miaomiao added.
"What?"
"Big brother's girlfriend?"
Yang Peng felt his brain was clearly not functioning enough.
In his memory, his big brother had recently been having a tough time, and although he had repaid their father's money, it shouldn't have been so easy to turn his fortunes around quickly.
However, the news he was receiving now was that his big brother had contributed fifty thousand and even had a girlfriend.
That wasn't the look of someone down on their luck!
Could it be big brother had prospered again??
"Shasha, let's go ask big brother about it!"
Yang Peng took his wife Tian Shasha towards the Yang Family's table.
Since it was his family, he had been attending to outsiders just now and hadn't had the chance to greet his elders.
After he arrived with Tian Shasha, he first greeted the elders, then turned his attention to his big brother Yang Hao.
"Big brother, is this sister-in-law?"
Yang Peng had already been surprised to hear that his big brother had a girlfriend, but seeing that she was so young and beautiful, he was even more astonished.
"Mhm."
Yang Hao nodded and introduced them to each other.
"Big brother, can I talk to you in private?"
After exchanging pleasantries, Yang Peng signaled to his big brother Yang Hao to chat aside.
Yang Hao could probably guess what his cousin wanted to chat about and followed him to a relatively quiet corner.
"Big brother, I heard you contributed fifty thousand, that's really too much!"
"It's not for you, it's for the child!"
Yang Hao had already thought about how to respond and said with a smile.
"Still, that's too much, besides, big brother, you must have just gotten back on your feet," Yang Peng shook his head repeatedly.
"Don't worry, I've got it figured out!"
Yang Hao gently patted his cousin's shoulder.
Seeing his big brother Yang Hao looking so nonchalant, Yang Peng didn't press on the issue anymore, but instead asked, "Big brother, who are Wang Xueru and Meng Yuyu?"
"Accountant Liu said the money you brought, each person ten thousand!"
"Shasha even thought it was my ex-girlfriend!"
As Yang Peng spoke, he glanced at Tian Shasha beside him.
"Huh?"
Hearing Yang Peng say this, Yang Hao was somewhat stuck between laughter and tears. He said to Tian Shasha, "Shasha, rest assured, those two are definitely not Dapeng's ex-girlfriends."
"Mhm, mhm."
Tian Shasha nodded, then asked curiously, "Big brother, then who are they?"
"Well, that is..."
Yang Hao cleared his throat and chose his words carefully before saying, "They are my two sisters, who had heard that I was coming back for Dapeng's full-month celebration. They wanted to come with me, but something came up at the last minute, so they couldn't make it and asked me to bring some money!"
"Sisters??"
Yang Peng looked doubtful. As close cousins, he was very clear whether his big brother had any sisters.
"Sworn sisters."
Yang Hao added.
"I see..."
Yang Peng nodded but still found it somewhat unbelievable.
His big brother's sworn sisters were giving ten thousand each as a gift to someone they didn't even know!!
Naturally, they were doing it for the sake of big brother's face...
But what kind of relationship would command such respect!
"Big brother, then please convey my thanks to these two sisters. Shasha and I will be going to Jiangcheng soon. We'll treat your sisters to a meal to make up for the full-month celebration," Yang Peng said earnestly.
"Sure, I'll let them know," Yang Hao nodded.
"Big brother, then Shasha and I will go ahead and greet the guests," said Yang Peng.
As the host, Yang Peng was quite busy.
"Go ahead, no need for formalities among brothers," replied Yang Hao as he waved his hand lightly, then he turned back to his seat.
Once the big brother walked away, Tian Shasha couldn't help but ask, "Big brother's sister seems to have a pretty unusual relationship with him, doesn't she?"
"Don't guess wildly!"
"Haven't you seen that there is Xinyi sitting by his side!"
In fact, Yang Peng had his own suspicions, but he felt his conjecture was too absurd.
He knew his big brother Yang Hao well, who didn't seem like the kind of person to be playing the field.
But if that wasn't the case, those two sisters were hard to explain...
"This new sister-in-law seems even younger than me!"
"And she's so pretty too; big brother seems to have really struck it rich!" Tian Shasha went on to say.
What actually reflects a man's status and position is not the brand names on his body but the woman beside him.
Take for example, Old Wang, a forty-year-old bald man; if he appears by himself, he just looks like a greasy middle-aged man.
But if he's accompanied by a young and beautiful girl, others will definitely think he's Mr. Wang!
Although Yang Hao isn't a bald Old Wang, his current situation is pretty similar; with Sun Xinyi sitting beside him, he immediately gives off the air of Mr. Yang!
"It looks like big brother is doing pretty well."
"In a while, when we go to Jiangcheng, we should have a detailed chat with him," continued Yang Peng.
Tian Shasha nodded and smiled, "Actually, I'm more curious about what those two sisters of big brother look like, whether they are as pretty as Sister Xinyi..."
A little while later.
The full-month celebration officially began.
Liang Xiaojun and Yang Guofu were both quite good at drinking, and adding the fact that Liang Fei also inherited his father's genes for drinking, their table didn't lack for alcohol.
It didn't take long for the Liang family father and son to show signs of drunkenness, and Yang Guofu's face was also glowing red.
Yang Guomin wasn't much of a drinker, but it was inappropriate not to drink on such an occasion, so he joined in for a few cups.
"Hao, you mentioned earlier that you're still with Jiangcheng Newspaper Group?"
"That's a big corporation; what position do you hold there? Do you have a say?" asked Liang Xiaojun with a hint of inebriation.
"Do I have a say?"
"Our Hao is the president!"
Old Mr. Yang proudly took over the conversation.
"What?"
"President??"
Liang Xiaojun was instantly stunned, and even Yang Guofu beside him showed an incredulous look.
"Big brother, you've become a president??" exclaimed Liang Fei, his eyes round with surprise. Although he knew that Yang Hao seemed to have gotten rich again, he didn't expect him to have become the president of a big corporation.
"It's just a title, Jiangcheng Newspaper Group is a state-controlled enterprise," responded Yang Hao casually, sensing his uncle's motive in the conversation and laying the groundwork first.
"He really is the president!"
"Hao, they say 'one should look at an old friend with new eyes if three days have passed.' You've really made it!" exclaimed Liang Xiaojun.
Yang Hao just waved his hand, "Like I said, it's just a title."
"But no matter how you look at it, you're still a president!" Liang Xiaojun said as he raised his glass, "Here, uncle would like to make a toast to you."
"You are the first president in our family!!" After speaking, Liang Xiaojun drained the beer in his glass.
Since he was an elder, Yang Hao immediately followed with a toast.
"Hao, do you think there's a chance for little Fei to get into Jiangcheng Newspaper Group? He's always been working in self-media, so he does have experience in the media industry!" After putting down his glass, Liang Xiaojun asked.
Liang Xiaojun knew his son's capabilities well; the self-media company he started with his friends was nothing serious.
After floundering for over half a year with nothing to show for it, and losing tens of thousands of yuan.
If it weren't for the lack of family support for Liang Fei's ventures, the losses would have been more than just tens of thousands.
So, hearing that Yang Hao was the president of Jiangcheng Newspaper Group, Liang Xiaojun thought of getting his son a job there.
After all, it was a legitimate large corporation with government backing.
"Right, Hao," said Yang Huizhi.
"See if you can make it happen!" she implored, her interest clearly for her son's future.
At this moment, Liang Fei felt his face heating up; before Yang Hao arrived, he had been boasting about having his big brother work with him!
But now, in the blink of an eye, his parents were requesting he follow Yang Hao...
"Xiaojun, Huizhi, do you not understand Fei's work?" Yang Huizhen joined the conversation.
"Didn't he just offer Xinyi an annual salary of a hundred thousand to become a livestream host?"
"He himself is such a big boss, there's no need to go to Jiangcheng Newspaper Group!"
At this point, Yang Huizhen interjected, clearly unimpressed with Liang Xiaojun's opportunistic attitude.
When her nephew Yang Hao was down on his luck, he had been sarcastic and unpleasant.
Now that her nephew had made it, Liang Xiaojun was coming around looking for favors again, as if she'd allow such a thing!!
