MTL - I am a Good Man-Chapter 512 The husband of an educated youth (5)
For the next two months, Ji Yang would go to catch fish after work at night, and would keep them in a water tank if he couldn't finish eating them.
When the bean sprouts grow up, pick a piece to the town and sell it.
The first two times only sold 20 catties a day, and later, they will gradually sell 50 or 60 catties a day.
No, today is another day when business is booming.
"I will buy two fish today and give me bean sprouts?" The woman in blue work clothes came to him.
These are all old customers, Ji Yang smiled embarrassedly, "Sister, there is only one fish left today, and the bean sprouts are less than a jin. I will charge you fifty cents, and I will give you this little fish and these bean sprouts."
"Sold out and close the stall and go home."
…
The woman looked at the fish. It might only be a little over half a catty, but it was also cheap, and there were bean sprouts to send, so she quickly took out the money to Ji Yang.
"Here you are." Ji Yang dressed up and handed it to her.
Afterwards, he slowed down for a while, picked up the bamboo basket, looked at the rising sun, and walked to the other side.
Today I picked 70 catties of bean sprouts and more than a dozen catties of fish. Forget it, I finally sold 53 yuan. Excluding the money for mung beans, I can make about 40 yuan.
One month's salary for an old worker.
Walking down the street, looking at the old farmer selling tofu, he remembered that Ye Jiao liked to eat tofu. He bought two yuan for two cents.
He went to a state-owned store again, bought soap, brown sugar, and half a catty of pork. Finally, he saw the candy on the shelf and the red, green and green wrapping paper. He bought a small package and wanted to go back to coax the family. Little daughter-in-law.
He was lavish and bought cakes and snacks in the end.
Go home along the path and knock gently at the door, "I'm back."
Without waiting for the next step, the door has been opened.
Ye Jiao's figure appeared in front of him, she opened the door wider, and reached out to pick up the bamboo basket on his shoulder, "Is it all sold out today?"
"Which day did it not sell out?" Ji Yang rubbed his shoulders, hesitantly.
"What did you buy again?" Ye Jiao took them out the same way, and saw tofu, pork, and mung beans. She didn't feel surprised at all of them.
Ji Yang's mouth is awkward, he must eat good eggs and meat, and now he is tired of eating fish and meat, so he has to trade for pork and lamb.
"What do you buy brown sugar for? What are these? Don't spend money indiscriminately." Ye Jiao looked at the pastries and snacks, and was mad at him again.
This person buys some snacks every day.
I bought her some beef cubes some time ago. Even though it was delicious, she didn't dare to eat more. After all, they were not rich people.
"Making money, that is to spend." Ji Yang said slowly, and took out a large amount of money tickets from his arms and handed her to her.
"Then save a little too." Ye Jiao took it and began to count.
He has a great advantage, since he has made money to buy clothes and has surplus, he will keep it for her when he comes back.
"Isn't this there? You said you are so skinny and hard to read. I have to take care of you." He said, washing the mung beans and preparing to soak them.
Ye Jiao didn't know what to do when he said so, because they had a fair and honest reason.
It was true when she thought about it. She was hungry while reading in the middle of the night, and she could still eat small snacks to relieve her greed, and her eyes returned to the money ticket in her hand.
He has 22 yuan left today.
After counting the savings at home, her eyebrows were bent, "We have deposited four hundred and fifty-four cents in these two months."
"I want to eat braised pork." Ji Yang didn't focus on this.
"We have more than four hundred and fifty yuan." Ye Jiao quickly walked to him again, watching him squatting down to wash the mung beans, and emphasized again.
A sewing machine is only a few hundred now, and a sewing machine at home is a good family in the village.
They can buy three!
"You are going to study in the future, it will cost a lot of money, save it quickly, and don't let people discover it." Ji Yang turned his head and reminded him.
He had been tanned a bit during the time he was off work, and when he spoke like this, Ye Jiao smiled and leaned forward as he looked at his handsome face close at hand.
Ji Yang's face softened, and the person concerned had already turned around and ran into the house.
The thief slipped fast.
Ye Jiao's face was red and still hot. She dragged the ticket to the bedside to get the locked iron box on the bedside.
"Running." Ji Yang's voice came from behind her suddenly.
She turned around holding the iron box, and saw him behind her, very close, her heart raised her throat, and she kept moving back.
"Why don't you run away?" He pulled up his sleeves, his stern expression was slightly serious, especially a trace of aggression hidden in his eyes.
Ye Jiao looked at the sunlight coming in from outside the window, then looked at him, swearing to his death, but was pulled over and pushed onto the bed.
Is this person's habit regardless of time point or not changed, so ashamed that she hides directly in the bed in the afternoon, it is impossible to get off work.
Let him go by himself!
However, Ji Yang wouldn't say about her at this point. It seemed that she was still willing to let her stay at home. The benefits of separating the family are getting more and more. She feels happy when she looks at the growing little chickens.
In two months, these little chicks will be able to lay eggs, and Ji Yang won't have to spend money to buy eggs, which makes her feel distressed.
The dinner cooked in the evening is richer, with eggs fried with leeks, spicy tofu, and braised pork, which he likes to eat.
Now their family no longer eats porridge or sweet potato rice, they eat dry rice, and sometimes they do not eat coarse noodles.
She could eat something else, but Ji Yang was not happy.
Ye Jiao sat down to serve him, feeling that his mouth was going to be raised, but a piece of spicy tofu was tender and refreshing, and the aftertaste was endless, which made people drool.
"Eat more, this piece of meat is lean." Ji Yang said, putting a piece of lean meat on her, and urged her to eat more.
As soon as Ye Jiao picked up one piece, there was a sound from the door, and the door of their yard was beaten several times.
"Ji Yang, open the door for me!" Sun Miaolan cursed outside again, and kept saying, "Mom must have given it to them secretly. Open the door to me quickly!"
Ji Yang frowned, and Ye Jiao was also a little flustered, as if he had done something wrong.
In case it was discovered that they were eating so well, Sun Miaolan would definitely suspect that they had done something extraordinary.
"Don't make trouble." Ji Dachao's voice came from outside, seeming to be stopping, and Zhang Yan's defense was still outside.
"Are you helping me or helping your mother? I worked hard to give birth to two children. That's how you treated me? Are you still a human?" Sun Miaolan began to spoil again.
"You still beat my son, Sun Miaolan, you're going the wrong way!" Zhang Yan took a look, that's it? As soon as his eyeballs stared, they would come forward and tear them. At this moment, Ji Yang stretched out his hand and opened the door, with a puzzled expression on his face, "Mom, what's the matter?"
"What else? Making trouble." Zhang Yan darkly snorted at Sun Miaolan, "Your sister-in-law makes trouble!"
"If it weren't for your secret subsidy, can I make trouble?" Sun Miaolan glared at Ji Yang, letting go of Ji Dachao and going inside.
That battle was just like ransacking home.
Ji Yang directly reached out to stop her and reminded, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing? This is not your big brick house."
"Did Mom secretly bring the flour to you? Why are you embarrassed? Two people have no hands or feet?" Sun Miaolan said sarcastically, "Mom doesn't admit it, then I will search for it and let her see what it is. no!"
As she said, Yu Guang glanced at Ji Dachao, insisting to let him see how eccentric the old immortal was.
"I said no." Zhang Yan was not the master who swallowed her anger, scolded, "Sun Miaolan, don't go too far."
"The last time you took sweet potatoes, you also said no." Sun Miaolan sneered, reached out to push Ji Yang, disgusted, "Let go!"
This little uncle is so lazy and can do nothing.
"This is my house, why do you let it go?" Ji Yang stood still, his words full of anger.
After Sun Miaolan gave birth to a child, he dared to tell Zhang Yan in Ji's family. He walked sideways, and was scolded by Ji Yang. He was also anxious, "Is my conscience guilty? Didn't you say that you don’t want anything? I asked my mother to give you food behind her back. Isn’t it embarrassing? And your wife, neither of them is a good thing.”
After that, she shouted at Ye Jiao inside, "When I was an educated youth, I knew to seduce men, every day..."
Ye Jiao's face had become embarrassed, and Sun Miaolan kept yelling again and again in a sharp voice. Ji Yang interrupted sharply, "Where is the mad dog? What are you barking?"
Zhang Miaolan was choked, and saw that his tone was so cold that he was so cold that he said, "This smelly mouth is spraying dung everywhere, my elder brother doesn't care about you, even if you mess around, you really don't know what your surname is?"
Ji Dachao's complexion changed, a little embarrassed.
To be honest, if he stopped at home, Sun Miaolan wouldn't come here, but she didn't stop it.
"I..." Zhang Miaolan was about to jump up.
"Mom, she said how much flour did you bring?" Ji Yang looked at Zhang Yan.
"Half a catty!" Sun Miaolan gritted her teeth with hatred, "Who doesn't Mom give you to take it? I used to take eggs behind my back, don't think I don't know."
"I said no." Zhang Yan was also so angry that her chest was ups and downs, and she pointed at Ji Dachao and cursed.
"Daughter-in-law, go and fetch a catty of flour and two catties of rice." Ji Yang turned to look at Ye Jiao, and said every word. If it’s not enough, we can get some blood, so take pity on her, lest she scream so that the whole village knows that we are cruel."
"What are you talking nonsense?" Sun Miaolan thought they were going to pay back so much, but before he was happy to hear what Ji Yang said next, her face was distorted and yelled.
Ji Dachao's face was panicked. .
"Who doesn't have half a catty of flour, so I need my sister-in-law to care about like this? Sure enough, as my sister-in-law said last time, parents didn't know how hard it was to raise two children with you. Just treat me as honoring my parents."
After he finished speaking, Ye Jiao had already packed the rice out, and Sun Miaolan's eyes were still on it, ready to speak for herself. Ji Dachao directly took her hand and left, "Don't be embarrassed here!"
The two struggled all the way, Zhang Miaolan beat and scratched, saying everything in her mouth:
"Ji Dachao, let me go, you coward will protect your mother and that useless brother."
"I'm so blind, you deserve it!"
…
Before reaching the door of the house, people kept coming out to watch the show. Ji Dachao had a good face and slapped him away, "Shut up!"
"You dare to beat me, fight with you." Sun Miaolan cried and yelled, and the two scuffled together.
The other end.
Zhang Yan looked at this little son with sadness and helplessness. "Your sister-in-law started making trouble yesterday. She ate all the flour, and she didn't remember it, so she said she would send it to you."
As she said, she looked at the rice and flour in Ji Yang's hand, and said eagerly, "You have no children yet, and both of you are working. If there is more food, you can send some to the elder brother, and the two younger ones want to drink milk. The food has been exchanged for milk tickets. Milk is not easy to buy now."
Ye Jiao looked at Ji Yang, expressionless, and handed the grain over, "You and Dad don't starve yourself."
"Yoko, you've grown up." Zhang Yan took it, her eyes were a little moist, "It's not easy for your elder brother, brothers should help each other a little bit."
Ji Yang turned his head and said nothing.
"I don't know how your eldest brother and sister-in-law are doing there. Mom has to go back and have a look. Your dad hasn't come back yet." Zhang Yan said and hurried away with grain.
Before she had gone far, Ji Yang closed the door with a "pop", his lips were tight, and he didn't speak.
Ye Jiao looked at him, feeling uneasy. Zhang Yan had already said that, and the food was also given. She could only say, "Just treat our parents as filial piety. There are still some noodles at home, so we can buy it later."
"Four adults are raising two children. Parents are still at work, and they are all stuck in. Isn’t that enough?" He picked up the bowl again and continued to eat. There should be blood on his child."
Ye Jiao looked at him while talking while eating, and felt a little bit distressed about him. Sun Miaolan was very picky and careful, mostly saving the money. Ji Dachao also had his own careful thoughts. Sun Miaolan was too careless and would definitely come forward to be a villain.
The benefits are accounted for.
"We are rich now, and we won't be hungry without the subsidies of our parents. Besides, we are free when our parents are not there." Ye Jiao comforted him, and finally replied, "We will live better and better."
Ji Yang was not active when he left work, but he was very active in other periods and was able to endure hardships.
She is still full of confidence in the future.
"Yes, we have money, what is that little grain? Crazy dog!" Ji Yang said and cursed lowly, "It disturbs the whole family, bitch!"
Ye Jiao smiled with his appearance, and he picked up the bowl and continued to eat.
That night.
Ye Jiao also took out their money and counted it, and he and Ji Yang said with emotion that they now have a lot of money, and what they can do with the money, secretly a little happy.
"How much money is there?" Ji Yang looked at her on the bed, opened his hand, "Go to bed quickly."
"I still want to read." She looked at him, shy.
"Hurry up, don't let me go down and catch you, I can't spare you then." Ji Yang pretended to be angry.
There was a picture in Ye Jiao's mind, he was even more embarrassed, closed the book, and twisted and walked over.
As soon as he got to the bedside, Ji Yang dragged people into the bed, hugging her delicate and soft body, and there was a roar of frolics.
At the critical moment of the right path, first a flash of lightning flashed Ye Jiao's shock, and he hugged him, followed by a burst of deafening thunder.
She shrank her body and hid in Ji Yang's arms.
"Small things." He touched her head, patted lightly, and was about to kiss her again.
There was the sound of "crashing" rain from outside, slamming on the roof continuously, and the yard did not know what had fallen to the ground, and the movement was not small.
"The chicken won't get it, right?" Ye Jiao worried.
It hasn't rained for a long time, but it's heavy this time.
"I can run into the cage, is it the time to worry about this?" Ji Yang raised his head slightly, and spoke a lesson.
Ye Jiao looked at him, his eyebrows slowly bend, and his clean and bright eyes looked at him, making people feel numb.
Unfortunately.
In the end it didn't work.
The chicks were not drenched, and the two of them were about to be drenched.
There were five or six basins in the small room, and Ye Jiao hugged him and hid in the only corner of the room that did not leak.
The two of them looked at the dripping water on the roof and glanced at each other. Ji Yang's eyes were awkward, and his teeth might be crushed.
The rain was getting bigger and bigger, the floor inside the house was soaked, Ye Jiao shivered with the cold, desperately leaning on him.
His body temperature kept rising, hopelessly looking up, and then at the little daughter-in-law on his body, he stretched his hand over.
It rained all night and stopped early in the morning. The basins on the ground were filled with water, and the small basins overflowed and flowed out.
Ye Jiao opened his eyes, his whole body ached, and when he got up, she was sleeping in Ji Yang's arms. The other party was sitting, leaning her head against the wall, and reaching out to hug her waist.
Their quilt was wet, the cabinet was wet, and there was a basin on the bed, and the splashing water made the mat half wet.
No one is more pitiful than them.
Ye Jiao hurriedly got out of bed to read his book. He hurriedly picked it up in the cabinet yesterday and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that it was not wet.
Ji Yang also opened his eyes, wrinkling his face for the first time, and slowly stretched out his hand to cover his right shoulder.
"Is it numb?" Ye Jiao was a little embarrassed. She was afraid that she was sleeping all night yesterday, so she was going to have a look.
"Don't come here." Ji Yang moved slowly, and then slowly moved his unconscious legs, and said, "Daughter-in-law, you must have gained a lot of weight, and your legs are numb."
Why do you say she has gained weight? Ye Jiao was angry, but walked over and slapped him on purpose.
"Hi..." Ji Yang wrinkled his face together, and when he leaned against the wall, he almost wailed.
Ye Jiao was amused by him and crawled onto the bed.
"Don't come here." Ji Yang said to stop her, his face full of resistance.
"You think you are telling the truth." She took the rare opportunity, suddenly became playful, and slowly approached him.
"Daughter-in-law, don't make trouble." Ji Yang was almost afraid of her, already begging for mercy.
Where has Ye Jiao seen him like this?
Most of the people begging for mercy were her. She became more and more optimistic, and decided to take this opportunity to take revenge.
She climbed in front of him, before reaching out, she was pulled over by someone, her body was easily turned over, Ji Yang hugged her tightly, pressed her with her leg, and smirked her lips. , "In the morning, what do you do?"
"You..." Ye Jiao froze.
"The roof is leaking. I still have business affairs this morning. Don't think that some are missing." Ji Yang let go of her, got out of bed, and dropped a sentence, "Hurry up and dry the quilt."
"I didn't think about it!" Ye Jiao sat on the bed to defend himself, if he had a pillow, he would have thrown it at him.
Ji Yang laughed lowly, leaving a chic back.
The wind was blowing hard last night, and the kitchen, which had no door, was blown into a mess. Two walls were already crumbling, but now they are about to collapse.
Ye Jiao didn't think they had a good day until yesterday. Today, looking at the house and the kitchen, he felt like crying.
Ji Yang went and picked up all the unused bricks in the corner. There were some behind the house next door. He went and took them back.
He took the hammer and demolished the other two walls built with wood randomly, planning to build a wall with mud and bricks.
The kitchen is very small and the wall is only two meters high. Ye Jiao stirs the soil and he can build it up.
I was busy working on these things all morning. In the afternoon, he borrowed a bamboo ladder. Ye Jiao held it underneath, and he was going to go up to the roof to repair it.
"Be careful." She ordered below.
"It's okay, put the tiles and mud in the bamboo basket, and I will pull it up." Ji Yang stood on it and said to her.
Ye Jiao hurriedly followed his instructions.
"This tile is broken." Ji Yang pulled up and walked aside, speaking to her from time to time.
This is an old house. Although it is rudimentary, it is also a tiled house. There are still many people living in mud houses.
He stands tall and speaks far away.
A group of educated youth who came back from picking wild vegetables heard the voice and looked over there.
"Isn't that Ye Jiao's husband?" Mu Weiwei looked over and just saw Ji Yang on the roof.
Xu Qijie also looked at it, his face was full of disapproval.
"Is this repairing the house?" Mu Weiwei asked.
"They live in an old house. Yesterday it rained heavily. It is estimated that the roof was lifted. It is under repair." Another female educated youth said, still laughing.
Most of their families are pretty good. They live in buildings in the city, so they are naturally making fun of them.
"This is too pitiful." Mu Weiwei turned her head to look at Xu Qijie with sympathy in her eyes, her face was calm, "That's her own self-inflicted feeling!"
"That's not it." Mu Weiwei looked at the old house not far away again, and there were piles of weeds next to her, her mouth squashed.
Several more people answered.
"She must regret it. Chen Zhen is now washing her face in tears, but after giving birth to a child, what can be done?"
"Ye Jiao doesn't know what he is thinking, he will have to cry in the future."
Xu Qijie didn't speak, he felt so in his heart, and at the same time it was a hint of unwillingness.
But at this moment, Ye Jiao walked to the front from the backyard, looking at his head and said, "Are you a fool? Over there, not here."
Her words were smiling.
Ji Yang turned around again, her feet slid swiftly, her face was pale, and her distress was about to stop, and she was about to exclaim, but saw him standing still again, raised her eyebrows and looked at her with a smile, "So fierce what?"
Ye Jiao was so angry that he would jump on the spot if he had a bad temper, "Hurry up, I'm going to be angry."
"I want to be angry again." Ji Yang lowered his head, walked aside without complaining, and coaxed her, "Fix it now, don't be angry."
Ye Jiao smiled again, and said softly, "It's getting dark, please pay attention to safety."
Several people slowed down unconsciously, and listened to the sound not far away with their ears erect. Ye Jiao's behavior was undoubtedly what they had just said by slapping their faces.
At least it seems that she is not so unbearable now.
"What's so good about playing with mud legs? We are going back to the city, so she can only stay in this ravine." Mu Weiwei couldn't hear Ye Jiao's laughter, and said angrily.
"They are all from an educated youth academy, and Ye Jiao is also married. Why can't you look forward to being well?" Another female educated youth faintly said.
Mu Weiwei was startled, and didn't know how to refute it for a while.
The rest of the educated youths are not good at talking, feeling that the gloom in their hearts has been exposed.
