"See what you've done?" Zhang Yan snatched her grandson and glared at Sun Miaolan. "It's just taking care of the child. You can't even handle it. What else can you do?"
Sun Miaolan was scolded, but she didn't dare to speak back.
Zhang Yan is very talkative, ever since Ji Yang and his wife left, their anger has been poured on her, and they often yell at her.
Even if you win the quarrel, you have to suffer.
Ji Dachao hasn't sent money or letters home for half a year, but Ji Yang and his wife send money back every month.
The two immortals are also greedy for money, and now they talk about Ji Yang every day.
"I cooked the meal without going to the ground, wait for me to cook it for you?" Zhang Yan scolded again when she saw that she didn't reply.
Sun Miaolan scolded her countless times from the bottom of her heart, using sinful curses, and slowly turned around and walked towards the kitchen.
"Aunt Zhang, your Yoko is back." Er Dan passed by their house and yelled into the yard.
Before the words finished, Zhang Yan opened her eyes wide and quickly ran to the door, "What did you just say?"
"Your Yoko is back, bringing his wife with him." Er Dan repeated, pointing to the direction behind him, "I'll be back soon, he's made a lot of money."
Zhang Yan still couldn't believe it, and hurried out.
Ji Yang and Ye Jiao were coming out of the alley in front, carrying a big bag in their hands, she didn't recognize them at first glance.
He was wearing long trousers and a black coat, which is city clothes.
"Yangzi?" Zhang Yan called out uncertainly, and Ji Yang led Ye Jiao to her and called out, "Mom."
"Yangzi." Zhang Yan yelled louder this time, her eyes were red, and she yelled into the room, "Father, Yangzi is back, Yangzi is back."
"What?" Ji's father also came out with a pipe in hand, seeing Ji Yang's pupils shrank slightly, his lips twitched a few times, and finally he could only say, "It's good to be back."
Sun Miaolan stood aside, looking at the bulging bag, "What did you bring back?"
After going out for so long, and it's the Chinese New Year, the imperial capital should have a lot of delicacies from mountains and seas, let her try something new.
"I bought a set of clothes for my parents." Ji Yang walked in and answered her words.
"Just buy it for parents? Xiaotao and Xiaohui are still young, and they can't stand the cold weather. As uncles and aunts, why don't you bring them something?" Sun Miaolan straightened her face, extremely displeased.
From what she heard, except for those two old men who bought it, no one else had it, so she couldn't be more mad.
Ji Yang ignored her, opened the bag, took out two cotton padded clothes, and handed them to Zhang Yan and Ji's father, "Mom and Dad, try wearing them, Jiaojiao chose them for you, everyone in the imperial capital likes to wear them. "
"Then what are you spending money on? Waste of money." Ji's father had a dark face, but he kept staring at the dress, and wiped his trousers with his hand hanging on the side.
"We have clothes to wear, the imperial capital is really interested in this?" Zhang Yan first said politely, and then took it over.
The corners of her mouth couldn't stop rising, and she had already thought about how to show off to the women in the village in this bright red dress.
This dress is worn by the imperial capital, and it is her Yoko who is promising!
"Isn't that right? All retired old ladies wear this, with curly hair and small leather shoes." Ji Yang nodded affirmatively.
"Give it a try, Mom." Zhang Yan frowned, overjoyed.
Father Ji didn't move, Ye Jiao looked at him with a smile, "Dad, you can try it too."
He sighed, "What did you do in the capital?"
"Set up a stall on the street and buy some small things. Jiaojiao is in school and can be a doctor when she comes out." Ji Yang didn't say much.
"That's it, it's good to be a doctor." Ji's father glanced at Ye Jiao again, although he was angry that she took Ji Yang away, but now that his son has made money, he doesn't say anything more.
Moreover, after finally coming back, quarrels are also taboo at the beginning of the year, which will affect the wealth and good luck of the next year.
"The imperial capital must make a lot of money by setting up stalls, right?" Sun Miaolan said, her eyes lit up, and she was still holding the two coats that Ye Jiao gave her. They looked a bit big, but children grow up fast, so they have to wear bigger ones. .
Hearing this, Zhang Yan also stopped and listened carefully.
These are all the capital she went to the village to show off. Her son has gone to the imperial capital to do business, the most powerful!
"How can there be any money?" Ji Yang was helpless.
"Why don't you have any money? You need money for these clothes, and you still send money back every month. It's all money. How much money do you have left?" The harvest is not good, and the family is hard to earn money... "
Before she finished speaking, Ji Yang interrupted her, wondering, "The money I send every month should be enough for my parents to live on. Didn't elder brother send money home?"
Sun Miaolan choked suddenly, and took a long time to say, "Your elder brother, he is still in school, how can he have any money?"
"Where's big brother?" Ji Yang asked again.
"Not back." Father Ji replied calmly.
"Didn't you go on vacation early? Why didn't you come back? Did you stay in the city to work again?" Ji Yang raised his eyebrows and looked at several people.
"Yeah, working part-time during Chinese New Year pays a lot. After all, there are two children at home. Your elder brother is working very hard. Not only does he have to go to school, but he also has to make money to support his children. It's not like you, who set up a stall to make money, and have no children. He earns and spends on his own." Sun Miaolan first praised Ji Dachao, and then sighed.
Ji Yang pretended not to hear what she said, and took out a few packets of dried seafood and a packet of sugar, and handed them to Zhang Yan.
Then the couple went out to meet the old house.
Sun Miaolan's eyes were straightened, she looked at the dried seafood and sugar in Zhang Yan's hand, and stretched out her hand.
"What are you doing?" Zhang Yan stared.
"Mom, give Xiao Hui some candy to taste, they haven't eaten candy from the imperial capital yet." Sun Miaolan looked embarrassed.
Zhang Yan held a pack of toffee in her hand, covered it tightly, looked at the two children, and reluctantly took out two.
Zhang Miaolan didn't give it to her daughter, but gave her son one, and she secretly ate the daughter's one, causing Ji Tao to cry.
the other side.
Ji Yang pushed open the door of the old house, Ye Jiao walked in with him, the walls were covered with moss, and the windows were full of dust.
They lived in the south side of the courtyard in the imperial capital. The room was bright and well lit, and the furniture in the house was also complete, with some decorations from her.
In contrast, this place is simply too simple. When Ye Jiao walked into the room, the mat on the window was gone, and she could see the missing board on the bed at a glance. In the past, Ji Yang had to stretch out his feet to wrap her around her, otherwise he would always Fall into the missing piece.
The lacquered table is where she reads, and he often leans against the bedside to watch her read. In summer, she is too hot to sleep, and he will fan her to sleep with a fan.
Ye Jiao seemed to be able to see that scene.
"It's so hot." She threw off the quilt and hid herself against the wall, keeping away from him. This guy has a very high body temperature.
"Fan you, come to sleep." Ji Yang pulled her.
"don't want."
"Come here." He grabbed her hand, pulled it over, pressed it with his foot, and fanned her hand.
At this time, gusts of cool wind would blow on her body, and if it was a special period, he would rub her stomach for her.
In a daze, he fell asleep.
The corners of Ye Jiao's mouth turned upwards, tenderness appeared in his eyes, and he looked around the room, as if there were memories in every corner.
"Daughter-in-law, I bought back the exercises."
"Why do you work so hard? When my daughter-in-law is admitted to university, she must reward her well."
"Water is brought in, wash it fragrantly and wait for me."
…
"Daughter-in-law?" There was a whisper in her ear, and she was patted on the shoulder.
Her thoughts suddenly subsided, she turned her head, and was facing Ji Yang's deep eyes, looking at her with some curiosity, then raised the corners of her mouth, and said in a low voice, "What are you thinking? I have called several times."
Ye Jiao also smiled slowly, looked at him who was close at hand, and suddenly put her arms around his waist.
"What's the matter?" Ji Yang rested his chin on top of her head, "I don't want to live here anymore? We'll be leaving in a few days."
"No." She shook her head, hugged him even harder, coveted his warmth, pressed her cheek against his chest, and felt reassured listening to his strong heartbeat.
"Don't want to clean up?" Ji Yang raised his eyebrows.
"No!" She clapped her hands and patted him once.
"That… "
"Yoko, it's cold, mom will bring you a quilt." Zhang Yan's voice came, and Ye Jiao quickly pushed him away.
Before she could stand still, Zhang Yan had already walked in, and said with a smile, "If the quilt is placed here, it will be eaten by mice, so Mom will take it to the new house. I still need to build more at night."
"Thank you Mom." Ji Yang nodded and reached out to pick it up.
Zhang Yan: "I haven't lived here for so long, so I still need to clean it up. Mom will clean it up for you."
"No need, mom, you just rest, I'll do it." Ye Jiao declined with a smile, "The room is not big, and it will be cleaned soon."
"... Then... Well, the house still needs to be cleaned up, come over for dinner later." Seeing Ye Jiao cleaning up, Zhang Yan didn't insist anymore.
"Um."
After she left, Ye Jiao looked up at Ji Yang, and he quickly raised his hand, "I'll clean, I'll go now."
As he spoke, he still held the shoulder pole, took out the iron bucket, and carried it out.
Ye Jiao looked at him, and slowly smiled again.
The two of them worked together in a division of labor, first cleaned the house, and then went to wipe the high places, so that the Chinese New Year should look like the Chinese New Year.
evening.
The two went to the new house for dinner.
Zhang Yan killed the chick, but there was an unformed egg in her belly, and she was so distressed that she chanted it on the table several times.
Sun Miaolan hugged the child, quickly put a chicken leg into the bowl, and gnawed on it.
"Eat so much, can you sleep tonight?" Zhang Yan glared at her, her heart ached beyond measure, and she looked at the plate of meat, "If you raise it for more than ten days, you will lay eggs... Hey, Yoko, you should also eat a few more pieces of meat." .”
"I killed them all, didn't I buy a few more?" Father Ji frowned and stopped her from speaking again.
Ji Yang picked up a piece of meat for Ye Jiao, and some green vegetables for her, and then heard Sun Miaolan say, "Eat more green vegetables, green vegetables are good."
Ye Jiao continued to eat the meat silently.
She was raised by Ji Yang to be a bit snarky, and now she is not happy with him, and she can eat half a roast duck by herself.
After she finished eating, Ji Yang picked another piece for her. Sun Miaolan was afraid that she would finish eating, so she speeded up eating. Zhang Yan scolded her a few more times, "Aren't you afraid of choking to death if you eat so fast?"
She loves her flesh dearly, and tries her best to pinch Father Ji and Ji Yang.
In her heart, Zhang Miaolan and Ye Jiao are not worth eating meat, and eating so much is simply god damn.
"No need." When Ji Yang wanted to pinch Ye Jiao again, she stopped and shook her head, "I'm full."
"Full? Eat some vegetables." Ji Yang didn't force her, and picked some vegetables for her.
"It's good to eat green vegetables, eat more green vegetables." Sun Miaolan was gnawing on the chicken breast, speaking inarticulately.
