The next day.
Li Chunyu had a high fever and had to go to the town for injections. She lost five chickens and medical expenses. She was so angry that she couldn't even eat when she came back. She wanted to strangle Weidong to death and seek death herself.
Since Wei Dong could make Zhang Jun rich, she had to endure it.
Zhang Jun is not young anymore. If she doesn't make enough money to marry a wife, she will be ridiculed by the villagers. She also wants to marry a wife and come back to do things around her.
In the evening, when she heard that the He family was inviting guests to dinner, she didn't cook at home and asked the three men in the family to go to the He family to eat.
Not only that, she also wants to go there to get food.
There are a lot of people coming to the He family. Including the people invited by Brother He, there are more than 20 people. The He family is so small.
I had to kill six to get enough food.
However, He's mother didn't feel bad. She showed her black and shriveled hands when meeting people, with a gold ring on them, which was very conspicuous.
"I'm old, so I still don't wear any jewelry, but my son-in-law insists on giving it to me, and it's only 5.5 grams."
Mother He came to Fang's house and when she said this, she smiled so hard that there were fine lines at the corners of her eyes.
"That son-in-law of yours is not only rich, but also generous. I heard that he is going to drink today. How many days will your chickens be enough to kill?" Fang's mother also followed her wishes and supported her.
"We have raised thirty chickens. We can kill them if we want to eat them." Mother He didn't care at all and said slowly, "He finally came back. What's the point of killing a few chickens? We don't have anything to give him, and chickens don't matter." valuable."
After tying up Weidong, what kind of money will you get from now on? Money, why don’t you just give it to me? She can clearly calculate this account, Wei Dong has several million.
Fang's mother smiled and joked, "He just gave you a gold ring? Does your daughter-in-law have one?"
Mother He smiled more meaningfully and lowered her voice, "Of course, I will only tell you this. Don't tell others everywhere."
Fang Lan and Ai Qiao sitting on the side said: "..."
Are they not human
Mother He raised her lips with a hint of pride, "Xiaodong said he also has a bracelet, weighing more than ten grams, which he plans to give to my wife."
"Have you seen the one my Qiuxiang is wearing on her hand? It's just like that. I originally bought it for my mother. Did you come back here with our Qiuxiang this year? So I just gave it to my daughter-in-law."
"More than ten grams are worth a lot of money." Fang's mother spoke straightforwardly, "I asked you why you gave up so many chickens. It turns out you got a lot of bargains."
Mother He smiled happily and continued to look at the gold ring in her hand. After appreciating some of it, she sighed, "It's just a little wide. I'm going to go to a gold shop to change it in a while."
…
A few people were chatting when Wei Dong came over.
In just a few days, he became familiar with everyone in the village. When he saw Fang's mother, she raised her voice and said, "Where are Fang Yizhou and Ji Huai?"
"They are inside." Fang's mother replied to him.
"Hurry up and ask them to buy wine and peanuts. Let's drink tonight." Wei Dong waved his hand and directly ordered, acting like a big brother.
There is no way, some people just don't know what they are doing when they are praised.
"I'll be there soon." Fang Yizhou walked out, "How many boxes of wine do you want to buy?"
"Six boxes." Wei Dong gestured with his fingers, "You all drink more today."
"I know, Brother Huai and I will go there later." Fang Yizhou nodded.
In the past few days, they have been buying wine. It has been a long time since I got together with the young people in the village, so I took this opportunity to chat. After all, they only meet once a year.
"Mom, hurry back and kill the chicken." Wei Dong said to He's mother, and his words were neither big nor small.
Speaking of which, he is in his thirties, and He's mother is really not much older than him.
"Okay, I'll go back and kill the chicken." Mother He didn't respond. She stood up with a fan, smiling and working hard without complaint.
"Remember to buy more peanuts and squid." Wei Dong said before leaving. His tone did not sound like a negotiation at all. He was very wealthy.
Ji Huai and others also went there in the evening and drank all the six boxes of wine they bought.
Wei Dong was a drunkard, bragging and talking frivolously, but the He family regarded these as the aura of the nouveau riche.
That afternoon, Weidong also shouted to Ji Huai, stroking his fat belly, "I can't drink enough beer. Let my mother kill those two geese in two days. You can buy another box of white wine, and the squid won't be enough." Buy more.”
"Kill the goose?" Ji Huai was holding the little guy and asked with raised eyebrows.
"We have almost killed the chickens and are tired of eating them. There are also two geese. We have raised them for a long time and they must taste good." Weidong also emphasized, "Just remember to buy wine. Why do you care so much?"
"Okay." Ji Huai didn't say anything. After all, he likes to lift others up, and it's best to make him feel light. Falling down like this will not be easy.
Ai Qiao watched from the side, her eyebrows furrowed, and when she went back, she advised Ji Huai, "Don't go drink with them. They have been drinking for several days."
"I didn't drink yesterday. I just sent the wine. Didn't he say what he said? There are not many chickens left, and there probably won't be any in the future." Ji Huai sat on the bed playing with his son, lowered his head and said, "Didn't you say Do you want to erect a tombstone for mom? I have already asked, and it can be done in a few days. When I go there this time, I will talk to them and ask the people in the village to help, and we can go back with confidence after it is done."
Aiqiao didn't expect him to remember this.
When she came back this time, she really wanted to take care of her mother's affairs. It was impossible to count on the Ai family. According to Lin Chunyu's virtue, she didn't know how much benefit she would have to give before agreeing to take care of it.
We can't let our mother's grave not have a tombstone, because her conscience will be uneasy.
Ji Huai looked at her slightly startled expression and continued, "Do you think I go out to eat and drink all day long? And I also take the money to spend it with outsiders. The better the relationship is, the more people can help me with things. And, in the future, I will also If you can’t go back a few times to make a good impression, your stepmother won’t be able to make waves.”
It seems like killing two birds with one stone, but it's actually more than that.
Ai Qiao bit her lower lip, not expecting him to think so deeply, and said softly, "Then... how much do you want tomorrow?"
"Give me a hundred yuan. It's enough to buy a hundred yuan of wine. That boy Wei Dong said he couldn't drink enough, so I'll give him a box of white wine." Ji Huai said and grabbed the little guy lying on the bed. hand, manipulating his hands for boxing.
"Attack."
"I'll fight! Fight again!"
The little guy looked at his father and grinned, "Giggle... Giggle..."
When he is too happy, he will kick his little short feet and his crystal saliva will start to flow.
The child is so cute at this time, white, tender and chubby, with skin as white as snow.
The dad indulged in tossing his son, sometimes pulling his hands and feet, sometimes making funny moves, and the little guy couldn't stop laughing.
When he is happy, he likes to move his hands and feet, saying bird language in his mouth: "@#¥%..."
Ai Qiao looked at the father and son with tenderness in her eyes.
It's a pity that father always has no sense of control when looking at his children. Ji Huai took advantage of his son's smile and directly put his face close to the little guy, so that the tip of his nose was almost touching the little guy's face.
The other party suddenly calmed down and became expressionless.
"Hey." Ji Huai still thought it was funny, so he stood up again, slowly approached the little guy, and stared at the other person's big cute eyes.
Dad was having fun and was about to get closer when the little guy cried "Wow".
I cried so hard that I cried so hard.
"Wow wow wow wow..." While crying, he raised his chubby hand and used his meager strength to push his father's face aside.
"Dad, I won't tease you anymore, I won't tease you anymore." Ji Huai felt depressed when he heard him cry, and hurriedly coaxed him.
The little guy cried and shouted, kicking his father and pushing his father. He pursed his lips and refused to let him get close, resisting very much.
"You make him cry every day." Ai Qiao felt helpless and stretched out her hands to pick up her son and comfort him, patting him gently on the back.
"Why are you crying?" Ji Huai looked annoyed and stood beside her to comfort her. The little guy didn't want to see him and buried his head in his mother's arms.
This look was exactly the same as when he saw the stranger. The difference was that when he saw the stranger, his face was expressionless, but now when he saw Ji Huai, he looked cute and fierce.
It seemed like he wanted to teach his father a lesson.
Ji Huai coaxed him for a long time, but the little guy ignored him. He finally put his chin on Ai Qiao's shoulder and kept calling the little guy, "Doudou... Doudou..."
The little guy didn't even raise his head. He raised his little hand and slapped him directly on the bridge of his nose, trying to push him away.
"Pfft..." Ai Qiao really laughed.
Ji Huai stood behind her with a frustrated look on his face, lowered his head and put his forehead on her shoulder, reaching out to hold them both in his arms.
The little guy seemed to feel that he was hugging them, and even kicked his short legs.
The consequence was that the little guy who used to love being held by Ji Huai when sleeping refused to come near him no matter what.
He hid in Ai Qiao's arms, but Ji Huai had no choice but to wrap his arms around them both.
The older one smelled like milk, and the younger one smelled like milk. He tilted his head and kissed Ai Qiao several times, then took her into his arms.
After giving birth to a child, she drank pork rib soup almost every day in order to have breast milk. She gained some weight than before, and her figure was plumper and more feminine, which was really charming.
"Sleep." Ai Qiao's neck felt itchy and numb as he kissed her, and her words were a little strange.
The ambiguous atmosphere was rising. Before Ji Huai could say a few words of love, the little guy put his hands and feet together and pushed his hand.
Ai Qiao looked at the son in his arms. He frowned, pursed his lips, and kicked Ji Huai's hand holding them in front of her.
The round eyes clearly read: Dad, take your annoying hands away!
Of course Ji Huai was not happy, and he propped up half of his body from behind Ai Qiao, "What's the fuss about? Won't you let me hold my wife?"
"I'll hug you."
As he spoke, he put his hand half on the little guy and pulled him towards him.
The little guy's face tightened, he opened his mouth, and let out a "wow" cry that was so heartbreaking.
"Wow!"
"What does he know? He doesn't feel comfortable with you like this." Ai Qiao pushed him away, sat up and picked up her son to comfort him.
Ji Huai looked at his son, who was lying on his wife's shoulder, howling loudly and crying at him.
Not a single tear was seen.
He sat and watched the other party's performance, gritted his teeth, and squeezed out each word through his teeth, "It's in vain that I hurt you so much, right?"
In return, the little guy just looked at him and howled again. After the cry, he didn't even bother to look at him, and his innocent little head was buried in his mother's arms.
Ji Huai: "..."
He's mother asked Fang's mother not to tell others that Wei Dong gave them jewelry, but after two days, almost everyone in the village knew that Wei Dong gave her a gold ring.
Even Mrs. He got a very thick bracelet.
Many people in the village were extremely envious, especially Li Chunyu. She had given five chickens. Why didn't Ji Huai give her anything
Big loss.
When the He family was killing the geese, Li Chunyu went there to squat early, so she naturally wanted to eat. When she saw the gold chain on Sister He's hand and Mother He's gold ring, her eyes widened.
Seeing Ji Huai and Fang Yizhou coming with wine in their arms, they couldn't help but walked over and said with a smile, "Ji Huai, have you prepared anything for Ai Qiao's father?"
"It doesn't matter if I don't have it, but his dad must have it, right?"
Anyway, what belongs to Father Ai is also hers.
Ji Huai put down the wine and said, "Yes, I brought a cigarette for dad. Do you need to prepare anything else?"
Li Chunyu twitched the corner of her mouth. The cigarette was worthless and she couldn't get the glory. She laughed a few times and hinted, "The one from Qiuxiang's family gave his mother a gold ring and his sister-in-law a gold bracelet."
No matter what, Ji Huai has to buy a gold chain for Father Ai, right
As soon as they left, she took the gold necklace to make jewelry for herself.
