Chapter 201: Dividing the Pig

Ji Jianyun asked Su Anbang and Uncle Xu to start feeding all the new fish in the reservoir.

There were two boats, but one could not be used. Feeding the fish was a quick task since the reservoir was not big.

After they finished feeding the fish, Ji Jianyun said, On the mountainous land around the reservoir, go and dig some holes. I will bring a batch of fruit seedlings to plant there after a while.

There were two mountains. Although neither was very large, Ji Jianyun was planning to plant fruit trees so that the land was not wasted. Moreover, if fruit trees are not planted, the water in the entire reservoir would become extremely turbid when it rains.

This reservoir needs to be repaired, Uncle Xu said to Ji Jianyun, while strongly smoking a cigarette.

Yeah, I know, but repairing the reservoir is a big project. I'll have to ask you, Uncle Xu, to help me find some strong men that will work on it in Dawa Village, Ji Jianyun said to him.

Uncle Xu said, Don't worry, as long as you have money for it, they will come.

Su Anbang quickly said, Jianyun, I can also introduce you to some men that can help. They are all experienced workers.

Okay, when it's time to fix it, you can ask them. Ji Jianyun nodded.

The reservoir was quite old, but he was going to rebuild it this year. However, he didnt have the money right now. It was also the farming season. When he was more free this year, he would have the money and everyone would have time to start repairing it again.

Because the reservoir was not close to Sujia Village and took an hour to travel to every day, Ji Jianyun bought a used bicycle for Su Anbang. It was quite old but still very useful.

As for Ji Jianyun himself, after selling a few things, he had the money to buy a new rickshaw.

He had to. One vehicle at home was not enough. Ji Jianye needed a big truck to transport the goods, so Ji Jianyun was borrowing the rickshaw from Su Jindang. He bought the rickshaw for Su Jindang, but later Su Jindang paid him back so it belonged to Su Jindang. But it was fine now. He bought another one for himself, which made everything more convenient.

When they went out to release the fish, Su Danhong added some spiritual spring water to the water tank, and a lot into the reservoir. If she occasionally visits the reservoir to refill the water in the future, the new fish would definitely grow better.

Fish, fish.

It was time to go back, but Qiqi was still a bit reluctant to go and kept watching the reservoir for fish.

You can come with your dad next time, Su Danhong persuaded.

Although Qiqi could not speak much, he could already understand what was said. He knew what his mother was saying, so he was happy with it.

He also waved his hand to Uncle Xu and Su Anbang to say goodbye.

The family went back first.

After returning to the village, they saw Aunt Li. Aunt Li didn't even look at them and went home.

Su Danhong and Ji Jianyun did not mind.

They know what Aunt Li was doing. Wasnt it because she was brushed off by Ji Jianyun? The last time she asked about new spots, Ji Jianyun said he wouldn't hire anyone. Yet, he was hiring again now. He was clearly not respecting her and he did not want to give her Ji Jianhe a job.

After returning home, Aunt Li looked upset.

Mother, who made you upset? Ji Jianhe, her second son, asked.

I just saw Jianyun and his family. I am frustrated, Aunt Li replied.

Ji Jianhe said, Did you scold him, mother? He didnt respect you!

If he was not hiring, then fine. But now that he was hiring, Ji Jianyun didnt give Aunt Li any respect.

He's very rich now, why would he take me into consideration? Aunt Li grumbled. She wanted to make a scene, but after thinking about it, she decided to forgo it. After all, her husband and eldest son were still working there.

However, there was still an annoyance she couldnt let go.

What's that smell? Wheres your wife? Did she clean the pig pen today? Aunt Li immediately questioned when she sniffed the unpleasant smell.

This year, she raised two pigs in her family. The smell was there all year round. However, when she thought about the current market for pork, she was willing to endure the smell.

It was not just her. There were also many families in the village who were raising one or two pigs this year. They had no choice, who made the price of pork rise this much?

She's not feeling well today, she said she'll get up and do it when she feels better, Ji Jianhe said.

This lazy woman is slacking off again! Aunt Li criticized. .

Then she went over and banged on the door. Jianhe's wife reluctantly got up and asked, Mother, what are you doing? Cant I take a break?

It's almost time for lunch, so why are you telling me youre on a break? Do you think I'm stupid? Go and clean up the pig pen right away, otherwise you won't get lunch! Aunt Li screamed.

If I dont get to eat lunch, then I wont! You can clean it yourself! Jianhe's wife retorted and slammed the door shut.

Aunt Li was taken aback and immediately exploded, Who the hell are you to dare talk to me like that?

Then she said to her son who was also a little shocked, Jianhe, go and deal with your wife! She disrespected me! Shes being terrible!

Ji Jianhe rolled up his sleeves and went in. He was ready to teach his wife a lesson. However, Jianhe's wife coldly snorted, If you try to touch me, then I will divorce you and find another husband!

With these words, Ji Jianhe was suppressed. Yet, he still said, What do you think youre doing? Mother asked you to do some work, so what's wrong with that? Just give her respect!

I don't get anything from doing that work! There has to be some benefit for me to work! If I don't have anything out of it, then I dont do it! Jianhe's wife exclaimed.

What benefits? When the pigs are sold, there will be money, Ji Jianhe said with an incredulous expression on his face.

When she heard this, his wife rolled her eyes wide and asked, Will the money go to me only?

It was only when the money went directly to her that she considered it a benefit. If it went to her mother-in-law's hands, she wouldnt even get a cent.

During the New Year, when she returned to her maternal home, her mother said she must find a chance to cause a scene about it, otherwise she wouldn't get a cent after working so hard!

What do you mean? The money in mothers hand, isnt that our money? Ji Jianhe had to say.

Idiot! Go and ask for two yuan from your mother and say you're going to buy some delicious food for me to eat. Do you think your mother will give it to you? Jianhe's wife explained. But if I have money, we can buy whatever we want. Do you think your mother's money is the same as my money?

Ji Jianhe was confused by what she said and asked, So what do you want to do?

I want a share of the money for one pig. When these two pigs are killed, one of them will have to be ours, otherwise I won't do it, Jianhe's wife replied.

How can you do that? Mother will not agree, Ji Jianhe said. He knew his mother's personality well.

If she doesnt agree to it, then why am I working for her? Ji Jianhe's wife laid back down on the kang.
