Ji Changze has never been to his sister-in-law's house, but he can't help but stay out of the house.
Outside, while Liu Huifen was still wondering why her husband had suddenly changed his temper, he had moved a bench and sat down very naturally, crossing his legs as if waiting to be served.
But his eldest brother was really kind to him. He walked quickly into the house and poured him water and found snacks for him.
He just sat there comfortably, and from time to time he would say something without any sincerity: "Brother, don't bother me. We are brothers. You don't have to greet me. Just give me some boiled water and let me sit." That’s it.”
"That's okay."
Ji Changguang found some dried sweet potatoes and put them in front of his younger brother with a smile: "You haven't been here before. It's not easy for you to come here. I will definitely take good care of you."
"By the way, I remember there is some rock sugar. It tastes better if you put it in water. I'll get it for you."
Liu Huifen watched helplessly as her husband entered their house, and then saw her brother-in-law sitting struttingly in her own home looking like he was enjoying himself, so she suppressed her anger and entered the house.
As soon as he entered, he saw Ji Changguang rummaging for rock candy.
"Ji Changguang, what's wrong with you?"
Liu Huifen is an only daughter, and her father and mother also love her. Therefore, although her temperament cannot be called a shrewd one, she will definitely not keep her dissatisfaction in her heart.
She stepped forward and grabbed her husband's arm, asking, "Didn't you go to your parents to ask for money? Is the money coming soon? Why did you bring Nagasawa here?"
Just bring him here and still serve this bastard like that.
He was probably forgetting how much Ji Changze had taken away from them since they got married.
Ji Changguang was searching intently. When he heard his wife's words, he remembered that he hadn't explained the bicycle to her yet.
Although he now feels that it is appropriate to give the bicycle to his younger brother, Ji Changguang is not the kind of person who only thinks about his parents and younger brothers and ignores his wife's feelings. He immediately looked a little embarrassed and carefully explained:
"Huifen, let's not ask for this money. In fact, it's my fault that Nagasawa is currently weak and has difficulty finding a wife. Now that he has finally found a wife, the bicycle should be regarded as a gift to celebrate his wedding. .”
Liu Huifen: "..."
She simply suspected that there was something wrong with her ears.
"Ji Changguang, what did you say?!"
"You don't know how much that bicycle costs? Why should you give Ji Changze the money you saved for so long? And it's your fault that he can't get a wife. It's his own reputation for being lazy and lazy. Otherwise, with his face, are you still afraid that he won’t be able to find a wife?”
Ji Changguang said quickly: "No, Huifen, that's not how it works. Nagasawa is actually not lazy. He is just weak, so he can't do the work. He is diligent."
Liu Huifen: "..."
That Ji Changze who is waiting for others like an uncle outside... is diligent? !
Sure enough, Ji Changguang must have been possessed by evil spirits.
"Listen to me, we misunderstood Nagasawa before. He is a good boy, let me tell you..."
Before Ji Changguang finished speaking, he heard the courtyard door opening again, and then the voices of Father Liu and Mother Liu were heard.
It's them who are back.
The couple could only temporarily stop talking and go out to tell them about Ji Changze's visit to the house.
Liu Huifen was very good at handling this aspect. Even though Ji Changguang was living in their house and eating in their house, Liu Huifen always gave him face whether in front of his parents or outsiders.
Just like this time, even if she was dissatisfied with Ji Changze, she would only drag her husband into the house and say it.
After going out, she would definitely not dismantle Ji Changguang in front of Ji Changze and his parents.
Ji Changze also heard the noise outside. When his eldest brother and sister-in-law came out, he stood up and looked well-behaved.
"Dad, Mom, this is Nagasawa, younger brother Chang Guang."
Liu Huifen introduced her parents with a smile as if nothing had happened.
Ji Changze looked at Liu's father and Liu's mother.
Both of them have jobs. Liu's mother is a worker, and Liu's father works in a state-owned hotel. He also found a job for his daughter as a salesperson in a supply and marketing cooperative. This family was nothing in later generations, but now it can be called a family. Very good.
The two of them were a little surprised when they saw Ji Changze.
After all, there was no holiday during the New Year. The relationship between Ji Changguang and his family was not that good before, especially Ji Changze. He had always asked for things from Ji Changguang without any regard for his face. However, when he suddenly came over this time, it was easy for people to think of other things. place to go.
But both of them also gave their son-in-law face. Even if they heard their daughter talk about Ji Changze's bad reputation before, they still greeted him with a smile on their faces.
Anyway, the worst thing is to treat him to a good meal.
Ji Changguang has an honest temper and is good to their daughter and them. Father Liu and Mother Liu are still happy to give this face to their son-in-law.
After saying hello, I saw in front of me that I couldn't tell from the appearance that he was a energetic young man with a low reputation and said with a smile:
"Uncle, aunt, I've actually wanted to come and see you for a long time. Even though the times have been bad these past few years, my family can't afford to bring anything to the house. It's a coincidence this time. I shot a pheasant and was in the river again." I caught a fish and thought that I would be able to take these things with me, so why not, so I came with my elder brother."
Liu Huifen rolled her eyes inwardly when she heard those words about why she couldn't come to the door because she couldn't get anything out.
What a liar, every family is very poor now. Even if he just grabs a handful of wild vegetables and comes to the door, it is not considered to be carrying something, and no one will say anything.
It must be an excuse!
When she heard about pheasant and fish, she was stunned.
No way.
Does Ji Changze still have this ability
No, even if he really had the ability, with his bastard temperament, he would catch pheasants and fish and bring them to their home
is that a lie.
Ji Changze turned out not to be a liar.
He went outside, rummaged around on the cart, and found the pheasant that had been plucked and cleaned and the fish.
Under the not-so-warm sunshine, Ji Changze stood in the yard with a chicken in his left hand and a fish in his right hand, smiling at the Liu family.
"I hid it on the way here because I was afraid of being seen, and even forgot about it."
Liu Huifen: "..."
Isn't she dreaming
Liu's father and Liu's mother didn't know it as clearly as Liu Huifen did, and a surprised smile appeared on their faces at that moment.
Father Liu smiled and said: "We are all relatives. Why are you so polite? It's not easy to come to the door before you have picked up the things. We don't have such rules in our family."
Mother Liu also said: "Yes, Changze, these pheasants and fish are valuable, take them back quickly. You are brother Chang Guang. Even if you don't take anything, our family will definitely entertain you well."
"I've brought everything, how can I take it back?"
Ji Changze went directly to the kitchen and smiled at the two elders: "Actually, these are of no use at our house. We all eat in the commune, otherwise we would start the fire ourselves. This is not because we think that my sister-in-law's home is in the city." Are you a member of the family? This meat is given to you to eat, and it is not cheap for outsiders."
Oh, this kid is really honest.
Liu's father and Liu's mother immediately changed their views on Ji Changze.
The village doesn't allow open fire, so you can open it secretly, but it's really not possible. Nowadays, you need a ticket to buy everything in the city. Meat is extremely expensive and the ticket is scarce. The pheasant and fish add up to so much meat. Ji Changze took it and followed it quietly. People exchange a few things, but they can exchange a lot.
As a result, he actually brought them all directly to their house.
If you don't value their family, how could you do such a thing
For a moment, the two of them looked at Ji Changze with a lot of affection.
After a while, "The meat is too expensive, we can't have it." "No, uncle and aunt, this is for you." "But it's too expensive, and your family is not well-off, so we really can't have it." "Otherwise, uncle, aunt, if you feel sorry, don't do it well." After that, he took the bowl and asked me to decorate it and give it to my parents to eat and let them have a taste."
Ji Changze successfully achieved the achievement of "sending pheasant and fish meat but carrying the prepared pheasant and fish meat when leaving".
Father Liu and Mother Liu even felt that he was an honest boy like Ji Changguang.
Look, the pheasant meat and fish he hunted down were delivered to them with all the pheasant meat and fish, even though his family didn’t even take a bite of them.
Even if he only sends half a chicken or only fish, it is still a very valuable gift.
After all, it’s so hard to eat meat now.
Liu Huifen watched helplessly as Ji Changze sat in the room and chatted happily with her father:
"Uncle, you like to play chess. Coincidentally, I also like it, but I don't know how to do it. I just like to watch other people play. I think it is played by knowledgeable people. How about you teach me, uncle?"
Father Liu's only hobby is playing chess, and what he usually likes most is that people say he is educated. But now that he met Ji Changze, both of his favorite things were scratched.
He suddenly became excited and laughed more than he had in three days. He pulled Ji Changze and talked non-stop, wishing that this was his son.
Liu Huifen: "..."
Ji Changze likes to watch people play chess, she knows this.
But isn’t that because the old men in the village always bet on something like peanuts when playing chess
What Ji Changze likes is to stroll around and see if he can grab some peanuts to eat! !
She was angrily looking at the two of them while chopping chicken. Mother Liu came in with a smile: "Huifen, how can Changze be what you said before? This child has a good heart. He just taught me how to use rice water to wash rice. Washing your face can make your face whiter and smoother. You should try it next time. By the way, I'm telling you, this kid is so funny. He takes one mouthful at a time. If we go out together, people will definitely think that I am his sister. Mom, I am like that. Are you young? This kid is really interesting to talk to."
Liu Huifen did not miss the fact that her mother was full of love for Ji Changze: "..."
crazy.
Everyone in her family is crazy.
This Ji Changze must have turned into a goblin, how could he deceive people
Liu Huifen looked down at the chicken on the chopping board, thought for a while, then took a chicken leg and put it aside.
Mother Liu: "What are you putting in? This chicken was sent by someone else. One chicken leg will be given to Nagasawa to eat, and the other will be taken back to your parents-in-law."
Liu Huifen: "..."
The money and things she and Chang Guang sent to the Ji family were enough to buy several chicken drumsticks.
It happened that Ji Changguang also came in with water, and Liu Huifen quickly grabbed him: "Changguang, tell me, what's going on with Nagaze? He is so attentive today. Is there anything he wants from you?"
This is a typical weasel greeting the chicken!
Now that the whole family has been deceived by Ji Changze, she must hold on to the last line of defense.
Ji Changguang's face was full of doubts: "No, Nagaze just said that he never came, so he wanted to come and have a look."
Who are you kidding? Why haven't you seen him before
Liu Huifen narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling that things were not that simple. As she thought about it, something suddenly occurred to her; "Wait a minute, do your parents have any objections to these things being delivered to our house?!"
She knew that her parents-in-law had never liked her very much.
"No, mom asked me to take good care of you. She said it was me who troubled my father-in-law and mother-in-law. That means you are virtuous enough to allow a grown man like me to live at home."
Liu Huifen was stunned.
She was so shocked that she even stuttered: "Mom, did mom really say that?"
No way, didn't her mother-in-law always have a bad attitude towards her
Ji Changguang: "Yes, by the way Huifen, I want to work hard and see if I can move up."
Liu Huifen; "Didn't you always think it was good to do this?"
She had told Ji Changguang many times before that he should stop working alone and think about whether he could move up the ladder. It was so tiring to be a worker all the time.
As a result, Ji Changguang refused to listen. Did he change his gender today
"Didn't Nagaze tell me that it's not okay to keep doing this? He even told me last night, let me be nice to you. These days, it's hard to find a family that can help a son-in-law like me, and Huifen You're from the city, you're good-looking, well-educated, and have a good job, but if I keep standing still, how can I be worthy of you?"
Ji Changguang smiled innocently: "Nagaze also said that we have been married for a while. Although it seems that our salaries are about the same, in fact you have been working harder at home. We are about to have a child again. When the child is born, It will take more money, so I have to work harder to let you and your children live a good life."
Liu Huifen was shocked by his words.
What she liked was that Ji Changguang was honest and kind to her.
But of course she would be happier if Ji Changguang could make more money.
Ji Changguang took his wife's hand again and said seriously: "Huifen, really, you have worked hard."
Liu Huifen blinked her eyes, and the ends of her eyes were a little red. She turned her face away in embarrassment and pushed her husband: "It's good that you know."
"Actually, I didn't think of this before. Nagasawa told me."
Liu Huifen pouted: "Your brother sees things more clearly than you."
After saying that, she put back the chicken leg that she had taken out separately.
It's hard to tell that Ji Changze is actually quite sensible.
Have you really grown up
