Chapter 232: Did Not Treat Her Badly
Its no wonder Ji Jianwen and Yun Lili work so hard. They borrowed 500 yuan from Ji Jianyun and haven't paid it back yet. When the 500 yuan was repaid, it would truly be over.
When they came back this time, they didn't mention repaying the money. Ji Jianyun didn't mention it either, and Su Danhong didn't care to do that.
Ji Jianwen, this young uncle, personally came back to take care of what he had borrowed. This was a matter between the brothers, so Su Danhong would not get involved. If it were up to Yun Lili, then she would definitely be in charge of the repayment.
When the couple came back, they also brought back a lot of things.
For example, they brought back new clothes for Renren and Qiqi. As for Ji Xiaodong and Xiaozhen Xiaoyu, they didnt get that. They were each given a basic homework book and two pens, and thats it.
On the second day after returning, Ji Jianwen and Yun Lili took Yan'er and went shopping together.
Since Ji Jianyun killed pigs, the family did not have to worry about pork at all. Yet, because of that incident, Ji Jianwen still went out and bought a few kilograms of pork. A few kilograms of pork was a lot of money. One kilogram of pork now costs 3.5 yuan!
Ji Jianwen still bit the bullet and bought it.
Yun Lili didn't say anything. The financial pressure on them was a lot. Anyways, it was rare for them to come back, and they could celebrate the New Year peacefully.
The next day, Ji Jianwen borrowed a rickshaw from Ji Jianyun and went to the county town to see Ji Yunyun.
Ji Yunyun was very impressed and said, I cant believe fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law were so thoughtful and came all the way to see me as soon as you came back.
Your third brother and I were giving cram lessons. If it wasnt for that, we would have come back a long time ago. Did you get morning sickness after you became pregnant? Can you hold down the food? Yun Lili pulled Ji Yunyun in private and whispered,
There's no morning sickness, my stomach is safe Yun Lili said.
Your fourth brother and I still owe a lot of debt, so we don't have a lot of things for you. Don't hold it against us, Yun Lili said.
This time, they brought a pound of meat and two pounds of soybeans that were bought from people in the village. Fourth sister-in-law, I know that you and fourth brother still have a lot of mortgage payments to make. You came to see me and still brought me something. How could I hold it against you? Ji Yunyun said. Then she sneered, Fourth sister-in-law, did you know? My third brother hasnt brought anything since I got pregnant. Because of that woman, I cant even eat one of her eggs!
Yun Lili didn't want to hear her say this. She couldn't eat the eggs, but her daughter, who was raised over there, could eat them and she ate them every day. It's not a big deal. I think your husband is a capable person. After New Year this year, his salary should be raised again. His salary must be quite a lot. What do you want to buy that you cant buy?
But I'm reluctant to buy it, Yun Lili said. Look at the small place we live in. Its less than 20 square meters. How can it compare with the house you have in Jiangshui City? Thats 80 square meters and its so big!
The 80 square meter home was the smallest in the community, but even the smallest one was still bigger than theirs. Ji Yunyun was satisfied with that size.
She wanted a house like that, so didnt she need to save money?
It's just that she couldnt save much with that small salary. How could she save more?
As soon as she heard this, Yun Lili understood. Yunyun, you want to buy a house? But there are no places for sale over there.
When there is enough money saved, Ill ask Li Zhi to move to Jiangshui City with me and buy one. Can't he teach there? Ji Yunyun said matter of factly.
Yun Lili was stunned. It's not easy to change jobs, and besides, doesnt brother-in-law have a good job here?
How can it be better than Jiangshui City? I don't care. If he doesn't move there, I will move there myself and let him live here alone! Ji Yunyun snorted.
Yun Lili frowned. Yunyun, don't be stubborn. I think it will not be easy for brother-in-law.
She and Ji Jianwen were both teachers, so how could they not know how hard it was? Jiangshui City was under strict control, so they couldnt relax or be lazy unless they didnt want to teach.
In comparison, the county town was much more lenient. Li Zhi taught an important level of middle school, he would definitely not be able to be as lenient.
But judging from her sister-in-law's intentions, did she really think that he could change jobs in a matter of minutes?
If its not easy for him, then is it easy for me to give birth to a child for him? If I still live in such a small place after giving birth, I will collapse! Ji Yunyun exclaimed.
Hearing this, Yun Lili was silent, but then said, Fourth brother and I will help you save some money to support the down payment, but I'm afraid we won't be able to come up with much.
It's nothing. I'll go ask my parents for the money when the time comes, Ji Yunyun said confidently.
Yun Lili thought to herself, if you can get more money from your mother, I will admire you.
This time, she told her mother-in-law that she was going to come over to see her sister-in-law. She thought Mother Ji would have her bring some eggs and catch a chicken so that she and Jianwen would look better when they came over. Unexpectedly, her mother-in-law just said okay, and nothing else.
She predicted that it was probably her younger sister-in-law did something unlikable again.
But she didn't say anything. After visiting with Ji Jianwen for more than half an hour, she went back with Yan'er.
Aunt always makes grandma unhappy when she comes home. Although Yan'er was young, she was already very sensible. She was now over five years old, and very clever.
What has she done? Yun Lili asked.
She always says third aunt is not good, and grandma is not happy when she hears it. How is third aunt not good? Hmph! Yan'er snorted.
Although she had her own parents, in her heart, third aunt had the same status as her parents.
When third aunt took my younger brothers to the capital, she came back with a pair of gold earrings. Many old grandmas were envious of her. She said that it was third aunt who bought them for her in the capital and she spent a lot of money! Yan'er explained.
After Yun Lili returned home, she focused on the gold earrings on her mother-in-law's ears. These earrings were bought in the capital, so she estimated that they cost two to three hundred yuan, right?
She didn't want to lose her dignity, so she didn't ask. Ji Jianwen didn't think much about it. He smiled and asked, Mother, Yan'er said your third sister-in-law bought these earrings for you in the capital?
Yes, I asked your third sister-in-law not to spend money, but she didn't take it seriously. Since she bought them, Ill wear them, Mother Ji replied with a smile.
When we have no debt in the future, I will also buy a pair for you! Ji Jianwen decided.
Ill just wear one pair. Why would I need so many? No need. Mother Ji waved her hand.
She said that Su Danhong bought her earrings, but wasnt trying to ask for another pair from her youngest son. Eldest and second sons family didnt give her any. She just wanted to show that Su Danhong was good to her. They shouldnt have any objections to it. She lived in the mountains with her husband and worked there. Not only did Jianyun provide all the food and paid for the other expenses, Su Danhong, this daughter-in-law, did not treat her badly either!
