Chapter 74: Embarrassnt Landing on Ji Yunyun
Ji Yunyun went ho. No matter how she thought about it, she was still very angry.
It was obvious that her fourth brother's family was so much better. So how was it that when she ca back, she discovered that her third brother’s family had surpassed her fourth brother's family?
She was very proud of her fourth brother's family, and she was very shaless in telling her classmates about them. Her fourth brother and sister-in-law were teachers in Jiangshui City. They worked for the public, so how enviable was that?
They were so different from her eldest brother’s and second brother’s families. She never bothered to ntion them. They just worked on the fields, so how embarrassing was that?
In the past, she could also bring up her third brother. But now that he had been injured and ca back to work on the field for food, there was nothing to say.
And she never thought that her third brother, a farr now, would be doing really well.
Those fruit trees on the mountain grow exceptionally. Although there were not that many leaves on it now, the vitality in them could be seen.
With the way things look now, it was definite that the trees would bear fruit next year. If this really happened, then the fruits could potentially sell for a lot of money.
Moreover, a lot of chickens and more than a dozen sheeps were being raised. It all looked very good. This was the first of its kind in the village.
Mother Ji said, “If you stay here and have nothing to do, then go to the yard to feed the chickens.”
Although there were chickens on the mountain, Mother Ji still raised seven or eight chickens in her own yard. It was all half-grown chickens.
Ji Yunyun knew by now her parents were on Su Danhong’s side. She pouted and didn’t say anything. She picked up the vegetable leaves her mother picked to feed the chickens.
When she ca back, she saw that her mother was stir-frying so vegetables. There was also an egg, and nothing else. She imdiately questioned, “Mother, is that what we're going to eat? Where's the at? And if that’s it, what will father eat?”
“Your father's food will be delivered to him by your third brother later,” Mother Ji said.
Ji Yunyun gritted her teeth and said, “Mother, what does this an? Did she deliberately not bring at over? She brought a lot of at when I ca back last year, and I saw a lot of bacon in her yard!”
The at was hanging on a beam to dry. Although it was a little far away, the sll was very strong and fragrant!
But she didn't bring any over. Didn't she boast that she was the most filial?
Mother Ji frowned. “That’s what your third sister-in-law cured by herself. It’s not ready yet.”
“What's not ready yet? I saw that it was almost done. She just won't bring it over and is deliberately greedy over giving it to us!” Ji Yunyun gritted her teeth.
Mother Ji was about to pinch her. “If you have nothing to do, then go back to your room and stay there. If you want to eat, then eat; if you don’t want to eat, then forget it! No matter how much good food I give you to eat, nothing good cos out of your mouth! Whatever you eat is free!”
“Who would want that? Who would want her things!” Ji Yunyun shouted imdiately.
As soon as this was said, Su Danhong pushed the door open and ca in. She was carrying almost two jin of pork.
Su Danhong glanced at Ji Yunyun and then looked at Mother Ji. She said, “Mother, Jianyun bought at this morning. I had it in the fridge. I rembered that mother didn't buy at yet, so I brought it over for you. Don't try to save it and just eat it. You don't have to worry about father.”
Mother Ji was also a little ashad, and quickly said, “Danhong, take it back. Mother doesn’t need it and you do not have to worry about this girl.”
It's impossible to say that Danhong didn't hear what her daughter had just said. The embarrassnt was coming on a little fast.
Her daughter was spewing out words, and before she could teach her a lesson, Danhong arrived with at.
“There’s so at ho. If it was just younger sister-in-law here alone, then I wouldn't have brought it. However, I am filial to mother,” When Su Danhong finished speaking, she gave the at to Mother Ji and went back.
Mother Ji waited for her to leave, and then looked gloomily at her daughter.
Ji Yunyun choked on herself and blurted, “Who would have known that she was eavesdropping on
outside the door like a ghost!”
“She ca over with at to eavesdrop on you?” Mother Ji snapped. “Go eat and apologize to your third sister-in-law after you finish. Otherwise, your chopsticks will never touch another piece of food from your third sister-in-law in the future. These vegetables were also harvested by your third sister-in-law.”
Ji Yunyun was so angry that she slamd the chopsticks on the table. “I won’t eat, okay?! This family no longer cares about . Su Danhong has everything good, while we have nothing good, okay?!” With that, she ran back to her room.
Mother Ji only felt her head throbbing.
Spoiled, really spoiled! I thought she was a good daughter, but I didn't expect her to be so spoiled in the end!
Although Mother Ji was angry, she still left her so food and continued to ignore her. If you want to eat, then you will co out to eat; if you don't want to eat, then you will go hungry.
When Mother Ji finished eating, she started pickling so cabbage. After a jar was filled, she brought it over to Su Danhong’s place.
“Mother, you're here. Have you eaten yet?”
Ji Jianyun and Su Danhong were already having a al. They quickly greeted her when they saw her co in.
“I ate before I ca. I pickled so cabbage for you,” Mother Ji said with a smile.
“Thank you, mother,” Su Danhong smiled back. She helped her move to the table to sit. Then, she scooped a bowl of bone soup for her and said, “Mother, have a bowl of soup to warm yourself up.”
“Okay.” Mother Ji then hesitated and said, “Danhong, that girl, Yunyun…”
“Mother, what are you talking about? She is just an emotionally swayed person, and she still has no experience in life. When she does, she will grow up,” Su Danhong said. She didn't take the matter about Yunyun seriously.
Mother Ji was relieved.
“What happened?” Ji Jianyun asked.
“Nothing.” Su Danhong shook her head.
“Did your father eat? Mother will take a bowl of soup to him after I finish this,” Mother Ji said.
“Father’s al was sent to him before we ate, so mother take your ti,” Su Danhong replied.
How could they deliver Father Ji’s al to him after they ate? That was impossible to do. She asked Ji Jianyun to send it to him before they ate.
She also asked Ji Jianyun to buy a big food box1 for Father Ji in town. There was a large bowl of rice that was almost equivalent to three regular bowls of rice, a bowl of soup, fish and at, and a small plate of vegetables.
Father Ji ate what the couple ate.
As for Mother Ji, she would sotis go over to eat. However, now that Ji Yunyun ca back, Su Danhong did not speak up to invite her over.
She didn't want her stuff to be eaten until there was none. She didn’t want to make herself upset. Thus, it was impossible to speak up, especially after today, when she forgot to deliver the at. She rembered the at when she was cooking in the evening and rushed to send it over while Renren was still sleeping.
Without saying it out loud, she made a record of what Ji Yunyun said in her mind.
As soon as Mother Ji heard that the food was delivered, she remarked with a smile, “With the way the old man and you two eat, you probably don't want to eat my cooking.”
Wasn’t that right?
Father Ji now ate what was from here. He ate three als a day, and was full after every al. Each al had fish, at and soup. Although he lives on the mountain, he didn’t have to do any kind of work. If there was work to do, then that’s what Ji Hongjun and Xu Aidang were for. So when Father Ji started spending his days with Lao San’s family, he started looking better than before.
Father Ji also did not criticize them for eating so well. When he did not eat with them, the couple maintained that kind of lifestyle and whatever was not eaten would be given to the dogs.
