The place is so big, and there are several families next to where Uncle Ji Qi lives. Now that it's getting dark, everyone doesn't go to work and just sits in their own yard chatting and working.
When Ji Changze came out of Uncle Ji Qi's house carrying a basket of mountain goods, they all watched.
Look, I told you when I saw him on the road before, would Ji Changze be so kind to help others with work
He just pretended to hold the basket, and Uncle Ji Qi gave him so many things.
A few people were muttering and discussing how Uncle Ji Qi was so confused and could be coaxed by Ji Changze for so long, when Ji Changze saw them.
The sky was getting a little dark, which affected people's vision. He squinted for two seconds before he saw a familiar face.
"Old Uncle Zhao."
The old man who was smoking a dry cigarette and listening to other people's discussions was startled and looked over subconsciously.
As a result, he saw Ji Changze looking at him with a smile, his whole body looked out of tune, and he opened his mouth and said: "I remember you have a cart at home. I want to go to the city to buy some things for the wedding tomorrow. Do you think that cart can do it?" Can’t you lend it to me?”
Old Uncle Zhao's expression immediately hesitated.
He has a trolley at home, it's still a thing left behind by his father.
But lend it to Ji Changze...
Thinking about Ji Changze's reputation in the village, he loves to eat and is lazy, and he also tries his best to be lazy at work. Although he doesn't cheat on others, isn't this unconditional
With such a character, it's strange that you can rest assured when you lend him something.
But if you don’t lend it, don’t reach out and hit the smiling person, not to mention that they are all from the same village. Ji Changze doesn’t seem to be that kind of honest person. If he doesn’t lend it out and someone will hold a grudge, he can do something small. what to do.
It doesn’t matter if you borrow it, and it doesn’t matter if you don’t borrow it.
How can this be done
Seeing the tangled look on Old Uncle Zhao's face, Ji Changze didn't make things difficult for him. He went straight into the courtyard and pulled Old Uncle Zhao inside.
We walked to the yard of old Uncle Zhao's house and closed the door smoothly.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Ji Changze could clearly feel that Old Uncle Zhao, who was holding his arm, was stiff. He was looking at him as if he was facing an enemy, as if he was some kind of murderous maniac who could easily take out a knife and chop people.
I have to say that this extremely vigilant look made Ji Changze really want to tease old Uncle Zhao.
His backhand is a...
Basket-holding action.
Come on, the old man is too old to be scared, so he should be honest.
Old Uncle Zhao stood there alertly and suspiciously, watching Ji Changze take down the basket, grab a few wild yams from it, and stuff it into his hand.
He was confused.
"What are you doing?"
Ji Changze's attitude was very natural: "I'd like to thank you if you lend me the cart. You can take these yams. You don't need a pot or anything. You can get some firewood and dig a hole to cook them."
"No, no, this is so bad, take it back, take it back, we don't engage in capitalism."
Knowing that Ji Changze wanted to give him a knife or a wild yam, Old Uncle Zhao relaxed and quickly pushed the yam back.
Pushing and pushing, he suddenly came to his senses.
No, hasn't he agreed to borrow the car yet
Before he could ask, Ji Changze said:
"How can it be capitalism? My fellow villagers, if I use your cart for free, then that's capitalism. Uncle Zhao, we are all from the same village. You can't harm me."
Old Uncle Zhao was frightened.
He couldn't care less about the fact that he hadn't agreed to borrow the car yet. Didn't he just not want to collect the things
How could this be causing him harm
Seeing that he stopped pushing, Ji Changze quickly looked around the yard and quickly locked the position of the cart. He stepped forward directly, pushing the cart over, and said very naturally:
"Just keep it, otherwise I will be embarrassed to borrow the car. And if you don't eat, can your little grandson not eat? Xizi has a smart face, but he is thin and small. If he eats more, he will definitely be better. You’re smart. In the future, you’ll be a college student and come back.”
After he finished speaking, Old Uncle Zhao's heartbeat, which had been shaken just now, became even more intense.
Yes, his grandson is so young and doesn't eat much every day. These wild yams are just a snack, so he can eat them for several days if he saves them.
What's more, Ji Changze also said that his little grandson is smart, how can he not keep up with the food? Now everyone eats from a big pot, and they are not allowed to open fires at home. Wild yam is a good thing, just light a fire on the ground and throw it in. It can be cooked, it can be controlled well and it can be hidden.
But lend it to Ji Changze...
Uncle Zhao is still a little confused about his reputation in the village.
Ji Changze here put the basket on the cart and waved his hand: "Okay, you can take the things, I'm leaving."
"Don't worry, I'll give you something when I borrow the car next time. We can't treat it like a capitalist freeloader."
Give it back next time! !
Hey, that's not just a matter of a few wild yams.
That might be dozens or dozens of yams!
What is the dilemma? !
I don’t know, I’ve never seen it!
Just borrow a car anyway!
Old Uncle Zhao quickly put down the wild yam and greeted him enthusiastically: "Shall I give it to you?"
The people outside had seen Old Uncle Zhao being dragged in by Ji Changze, and they were looking at him with their heads tilted up.
"Ji Changze doesn't know how to hit people, does he?"
"That's not true. After all, he is from the same village. Old Uncle Zhao still watched him grow up."
"This kid is very good at it. I really can't tell for sure. I said, how about we go in and take a look?"
While several people were talking, the door suddenly opened and Ji Changze came out pushing a cart.
With a smile on his fair face, which was always considered by the villagers as a sign of laziness and lack of work, he was pushing the cart while saying:
"Hey, you are just being polite. Don't worry, uncle, I will return the car when I come back from the city tomorrow."
Immediately afterwards, Old Uncle Zhao also walked out, with wrinkles on his face that made him want to squeeze out a flower with a smile, and his tone was as warm as he wanted:
"Don't worry, don't worry, it won't be a problem if you return it in a few days."
"Then thank you, uncle. I'm leaving, uncle."
Ji Changze didn't even look at the people who were standing at the door before and were now standing aside blankly.
Even though the shock on their faces at this moment was no less than seeing the sun coming out of the west.
There was also a car, and there were also some locals who were ready to make a little money. Ji Changze, who felt that he was alive, pushed the car, turned back with a smile and waved his hand, and then went straight towards the Ji family.
After all, he had a bad reputation in the village. No one dared to say anything when he was present. They watched him walk away and probably couldn't hear them anymore. Those people went to ask Old Uncle Zhao:
"What did Ji Changze tell you just now? Why did you agree to lend him the car? You're not afraid that he won't return it or damage it to you."
Old Uncle Zhao waved his hands with a look of disgust on his face: "Don't talk nonsense, I watched Nagasawa grow up. Isn't it normal for me to lend him a car?"
He was quite pleased, thinking that Ji Changze would lend him a few wild yams and lend him a few at a time.
From now on, his little grandson will no longer have to worry about being hungry at night and not having to eat.
Several people who heard this said: "..."
No, when Ji Changze asked him to borrow a car just now, was the embarrassment on his face fake
"Did Ji Changze tell you something? Or did he scare you?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could Nagasawa scare me?"
Old Uncle Zhao glared at the person who said this.
If Ji Changze lets these people spread the word and scare him, what if Ji Changze finds out and doesn't send him wild yams next time.
"Nagaze is actually quite good, but his reputation has been ruined by the rumors that were spread in the village before. Don't talk nonsense outside. I want to lend him that car. Hey, I just like this kid's kindness. "
People outside: "..."
Is Ji Changze a nice person? ?
Are they good to others? ?
After Old Uncle Zhao finished speaking, he returned to the yard. He had to hide those wild yams well.
When Sunsun came back, Ming'er quietly took him to eat yams.
He left, but the others were confused.
Isn't this a dream
Or is the sun really coming out in the west
Is Ji Changze a nice person? ?
***
"Nagaze, you are so kind. I told my mother what you taught me before, and she really treated me much better. She just brought a quilt over and said she wanted me to cover it at night."
When Ji Changze returned to his room, his eldest brother Ji Changguang was already sitting on the kang waiting for him with excitement on his face. As soon as he saw him coming in, he couldn't wait to greet him:
"Dad also smiled at me and told me to bring Huifen back with me next time."
This made Ji Changguang extremely happy. He had always been worried that his parents didn't like his wife, but he still wanted to be filial to his parents and knew that his wife had done nothing wrong.
I don’t know how to adjust it, so I can only try to go home alone every time and meet each other separately.
As a result, he learned what Ji Changze taught him today. He said that working in the factory is a bit hard, but luckily he can find time off to go home to see his parents. Huifen also has a hard time finding time off, but every time he goes home She carefully picked out the things she bought. If they were angry that Huifen didn't come, their supply and marketing cooperative wouldn't let her come next time, and he would ask her to take leave. When she came back, the expressions on her parents' faces were visible to the naked eye. His expression softened.
Ji Changze thought, it would be weird if he didn't smile.
The biggest concern of the parents of the Ji family is that their eldest son has gone to the city to live in the daughter-in-law's natal family and eat from her natal family. The father-in-law also found a job. Isn't that just a door-to-door son-in-law living a life of dependence
In the village, only the most unpromising man becomes the son-in-law, and he will have no dignity in his wife's family for the rest of his life.
Although their family had no money, they did their best to train Ji Changguang, but as soon as he was trained, he ran away.
In addition, Ji Changguang could not speak every time and did not bring his wife back to see his parents. He thought this was to isolate the conflict. In fact, in the eyes of the Ji family's parents, who were already grumbling in their hearts, this was because the eldest daughter-in-law was looking down on them. old married couple.
Ji Changguang was such a door-to-door son-in-law, so of course he couldn't control her.
It's strange to feel at ease.
But what Ji Changguang said today was to show that his status at home was not bad. He also said that the eldest daughter-in-law actually didn't come because she didn't come, but because she couldn't afford it. The things she brought before were all picked out by the eldest daughter-in-law.
The contradiction is gone, and the two elders will certainly not be angry anymore.
Seeing that Ji Changguang was still overjoyed, Ji Changze patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, please remember to tell your parents that your sister-in-law is filial next time. It's so late, so go to bed quickly. We have to go to the city tomorrow."
"Going into town?"
Ji Changguang was stunned and asked his brother: "Are you going to the city too?"
"Yes, it's not like the weather is getting colder and colder, and the roads are not safe. I happen to be going into the city soon, so I'll go with you so I can take care of you."
Ji Changze climbed on the bed and spread the quilt. As he spread it, he said smoothly: "Also, every time it's my sister-in-law or you who come back to our house, none of us have ever visited my sister-in-law's house. It's so unpleasant. I'll drop by my sister-in-law's house tomorrow to pay her respects." "
Ji Changguang was even happier.
If it were before, he would definitely reject it, thinking that Ji Changze wanted to eat and drink.
After all, the brothers have never been close, and Ji Changze is like this.
but now…
He looked very happy: "Then big brother will entertain you well tomorrow."
Ji Changze was not polite: "The relationship is good, brother, I have wanted to go to my sister-in-law's house for a long time, but you are living at my father-in-law's house, so don't give me any good wine or food, just make some home-cooked food. .”
"How about that? It's hard for you to come here once. I must greet you."
Ji Changguang didn't plan to use his father-in-law's money. He still had money of his own. Although it wasn't much, it was definitely enough to give his brother a good meal.
Ji Changze had already made the bed and lay down in it.
"Brother, don't worry, I definitely don't eat and drink for free. My buddy in the city got some high-end gifts, saying they are the most nourishing and rare mountain products. Well, I will give one to my sister-in-law's family tomorrow. I will definitely give it to her. I’ve given you enough face.”
Nagasawa was still thinking of saving face for him.
And he actually didn't eat for free and even took things.
If Ji Changze knew what he was thinking, he would definitely laugh a few times.
No one is loose these days, so no one will eat and drink for free.
Besides, don’t you have to take things when visiting relatives
However, Ji Changguang didn't think about it at all, which was also due to the image of his younger brother in his heart.
After all, he had always been eating and drinking for free, and now it suddenly changed for the better. Ji Changguang could not wait to be moved to tears.
so good.
Why didn't he notice it before
Nagasawa is such a good brother!
