Rebirth to the Eighties to Get Rich

Chapter 228: Coming Back



“They don’t need to bring anything back. They just need to focus on taking care of Renren and Qiqi,” Father Ji said upon hearing her.

Although he was somewhat interested in trying Peking duck, it was out of the way to do that. It was more important for them to take care of the children while traveling.

Ji Yunyun said, “There’s still their mother, what is there to worry about?”

“After our child is born next year, if you want to go to the capital, I will take you there,” Li Zhi said.

This sounded good, but Ji Yunyun still said, “You can say that, but next year there’s the high school entrance exam, and I will be in confinement. How can I go?”

“I'll take you there after confinement,” Li Zhi said.

After the high school entrance exams, he was going to be on summer vacation. Classes started on September 1st. With two and a half months in between, the break was very long.

“Li Zhi, don't listen to her nonsense,” Father Ji said.

He also frowned a little. His daughter had indeed turned out a little disappointing. Why did she still behave like this after getting married. When Li Zhi was on vacation and she was done with confinement, wouldn't that be the perfect time for her to go?

She was being taken care of, so what else could she be unhappy about?

Li Zhi smiled and started chopping the chickens.

Even though he was a teacher, he grew up in the village and he could do some housework, and Father Ji was satisfied with that.

Like Mother Ji, he was very assured about this son-in-law. His character was unquestionable. Aunt Cai was a good matchmaker!

The lunch was indeed very rich. There was a pot of delicious stewed chicken, a large plate of fried chicken, eggs, and five or six other dishes.

Li Zhi ate a lot. When he went back, Mother Ji caught a chicken and filled a basket of eggs for him to take back to the county town. Naturally, Li Zhi was embarrassed to take it. He gave ten yuan to his mother-in-law.

“It's not worth anything, so just take it.” Ji Yunyun carried it over, and then got on the back seat of Li Zhi's bicycle.

Li Zhi bid farewell to Mother Ji, and then biked Ji Yunyun back. On the way, he said, “Our parents are getting older, please be polite to them.”

He felt really welcomed by his wife’s family, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law were very generous, and didn’t dwell on trivial matters. In comparison, his wife was really not sensible.

“Don't worry about that, these are my parents. No matter what happens, they won't be like Su Danhong,” Ji Yunyun said.

She was not very satisfied with the chicken and the basket of eggs. Su Danhong would definitely be there next time, so she wouldn't be able to take more things. She was going to take more things on this trip, but obviously her mother wouldn't allow it.

Li Zhi shook his head and said nothing more.

“You promised me that you will take me to travel to the capital next year!” Ji Yunyun said.

She didn't want to be compared to Su Danhong in everything!

“We will go,” Li Zhi said as he pedaled his bicycle.

After the couple went back, Mother Ji said to Father Ji, “Li Zhi is a good guy.”

She almost criticized her daughter openly. She was blind to such a good young man like Li Zhi!

But this was the daughter who came from her. She could only say that her daughter still could live a good life, otherwise why would she find such a good husband for her?

Father Ji said, “Talk to her when you have time. Tell her not to look for trouble when she is idle, and get Li Zhi some food and supplements when she has time.”

He didn't care about these things before, but he was getting old. He had experienced a lot, and he had a deep understanding of life.

In the past, Lao San’s wife was not sensible, and not even filial. Now, she will ask Jianyun to bring a portion of good food over. The elders had enough to eat and enough nourishment. They were healthy and life was very good.

In the past, it was bad during the winter. Father Ji’s waist and legs were always sore. If it was snowing, he would be aching all day.

The situation had improved a lot. Although he still felt a little uncomfortable at times, he could always sleep peacefully at night.

It was not just him and his wife, but also his elder brother. Since Uncle Ji started eating with them, his health was better than before.

Then there was Jianyun.

Jianyun had a lot of things to do, and he had no free time. However, because he ate well, he was the strongest among the brothers.

Now look at Li Zhi, his son-in-law. He was busy with work as a teacher for third years in middle school and he had gotten skinnier.

“Let her do what she wants. If she doesn’t care for her man, then who will she care for?” Mother Ji said.

She really didn’t want to bother with this daughter, it didn’t make sense to. As for Li Zhi, her son-in-law, he really lost a lot of weight. Needless to say, she also knew that her daughter was failing to take care of him.

It's just that they were married. How they lived was up to them.

But this son-in-law was filial. He gave her ten yuan to buy some bones to make soup.

Ten yuan was a lot. The old couple had some money, but she still accepted his filial piety.

Today, the three chickens and basket of eggs she gave them was more than ten yuan.

“When will Jianyun and Danhong come back?” Mother Ji turned to ask.

“It's rare for anyone to go to the capital, so it must be a few more days,” Father Ji said.

Mother Ji smiled, “Jianyun said that he would take the two of us to the capital for a visit in the future. Old man, will you go?”

“I still want to work. With so many things to do, how can I visit?” Father Ji said.

Although he wanted to go, what was the best way to plan things? When they were away, what about the orchard?

Mother Ji nodded.

Yan'er asked Mother Ji, “Grandma, when will my third uncle and third aunt come back?”

“It will be a few more days,” Mother Ji said.

“I wonder what good things third uncle and third aunt will bring back for me,” Yan'er said with a smile.

This time, Ji Jianyun took Su Danhong and his two sons to the capital. It was only their family, and the others, including Yan'er, did not go.

Yan'er was still young, so they could have taken her. However, if they took her, what about their eldest nephew, Ji Xiaodong, or the nieces, Xiaozhen and Xiaoyu?

It would also take away time from their studies and it wasn’t a good excuse to do that. Ji Jianyun also didn't take them because he wanted to have fun when traveling, not to have a dispute with their parents.

Ji Jianyun and Su Danhong went to the capital, and when they came back, it was almost the end of November.

They came back by car. The family was worn from traveling, and felt so comfortable being home.
