Chapter 212
Early the next morning, Ji's house had just lit a fire and was making glutinous rice balls.

There was a knock on the door outside, and Bai wiped his hands and hurried out, and saw several villagers standing at the door, either holding chickens or eggs in their hands.

Bai asked: "Are you looking for something from the master?"

"Sister Bai, we are the ones who borrowed Ji Xiucai's carriage last night. My surname is Zhang, and my husband's family is Lao Jiang. This time our child is disobedient, so we got lost. Thank you for your carriage to bring him here in time. , No, the few of us made an appointment early in the morning, and came over to return the gift."

Bai-shi didn't dare to accept it either, just happened to meet Ji Chenyuan who was out of the room, and told him, Ji Chenyuan accepted everything, but asked Bai-shi to return some gifts.

Sending off the villagers, the first cannon of the New Year is fired.

It is rare for everyone in the village to be free, even fewer people usually go to the river to wash clothes.

There were even many people wearing new clothes. Many people came to Ji's house for several days in succession. They were either villagers giving gifts, or former partners, and even Hong Yi came to give New Year gifts.

There are quite a few people who have worked in Ji's house, and even more from the same village, and they all gave some gifts, and Ji's family took them all.

"Father, when did Ji's third house become so popular in the village?"

Ji Xiaoqing, Ji Qianhua and Mrs. Zhang just walked into the village, and she was already deep in thought when she heard some words from the villagers, but now she noticed what they said, two of the three sentences were about Ji Qingyue's family Yes, the unhappiness in her heart came out.

"Aunt Sun, if you hold back Ji Qingyue so much, what good can she do for you?" Ji Xiaoqing suppressed the jealousy in her heart, and smiled fakely, but she was used to white lotus flowers, and a country woman like Sun also felt it. less than.

But when she mentioned Ji Qingyue, Aunt Sun became excited.

She is Ji Qingyue's loyal supporter, not to mention that her husband and eldest son both work in Ji's lime workshop. Although she has a bad mouth, she is good at crafting, and she also helps make dolls. The harvest is much more than usual digging The more, the better the attitude towards Ji Qingyue.

Hearing Ji Xiaoqing's question now, she became more and more proud, and she looked proud: "Don't tell me, who in the village doesn't like Qingyue? Is it possible that they like your showmanship."

"You..." Ji Xiaoqing was unhappy in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She lowered her voice and pretended not to understand anything and asked: "Aunt Sun, am I curious? I dare not answer your words when you talk like that." gone."

"Besides, our family lives in the town, and we don't know what happened in the village, let alone what Ji Qingyue did to make you like her so much. I'm also her cousin. Don't you want to learn from her? ?”

"After all, I'm in the town. If I can help everyone, that's a good thing."

Aunt Sun's eyes lit up. She has always been greedy for cheap things. When Ji Xiaoqing said that she had been living in the town, her attitude towards her was no longer tough. She covered her mouth and smiled: "That's true, but I really need your help. A little busy."

"What's the matter?" Ji Xiaoqing regained her spirits. Although she disdained these country women in her heart, she was only doing it for clichés.

Aunt Sun smiled triumphantly: "Have you seen the grain in this field? Please help me to find out which family in the town needs this fresh vegetable, and ensure that it will be delivered in good quality and quantity."

"By the way, I remember that you guys are acquainted with Sun Xianggong's family in the town. Why don't you introduce us? After all, we are all from the same village, so it's a comfortable meal."

Ji Xiaoqing smiled forcedly, and said perfunctorily: "Good lady, I'll go back and ask. If anyone needs it, I'll let you know."

"By the way, you haven't told me why you like Ji Qingyue so much."

Aunt Sun slapped her on the shoulder: "You are stupid, can there be harvests in this field in previous years? Qingyue found these grains. It is the first wave of our village's planting. Are you afraid that this stuff will not be sold?"

"Besides, the lime workshop in the third room of Ji's family is looking for people from our village. Can you not like your master's house?"

"We are poor, and whoever gives the money is the boss."

"By the way, I see that you have a lot of pastries in your pocket, share some with me." Aunt Sun grabbed the pastry box in her bag without washing her hands, and grabbed a few pieces inside.

Ji Xiaoqing was so angry that she jumped up and down. This was a very precious pastry that Sun Quanming gave her, but she brought it back from the provincial capital. She didn't dare to eat more than one bite, but she was directly harmed by Mrs. Sun. The pastry boxes were shaking.

"Mom! Why don't you stop her." Ji Xiaoqing yelled in a broken voice.

Mrs. Zhang was a little aggrieved: "I didn't know she would do this either."

"It's all your fault." Ji Xiaoqing threw the pastry into Zhang's arms angrily, and walked forward angrily. After walking only three or four meters, she stopped and looked at Ji Qianhua behind her: "Father, you Didn't you ask about this news when you came back last time?"

"I remember we asked." Mrs. Zhang hesitated a little, and was a little scared after thinking about it: "Don't say that Qingyue didn't treat us well when we came back, and even did it."

"Father, you should really want to know the situation of the third uncle's family, no matter what you say, you are also his eldest brother. If the eldest brother is in trouble, shouldn't you help?" Ji Xiaoqing hinted.

Ji Qianhua's life in the town for half a month is not as good as being favored by Ji Liu's in the village before.

Ji Xiaoqing has various reasons for being short of money.

They can only do work to make ends meet, and he is in poor health, how can he bear this.

Although he was dissatisfied with Ji Xiaoqing's daughter, he was even more displeased that Ji Chenyuan's family didn't help him even though they were so rich.

"You guys go back first, I'll go to the third brother's house to have a look."

Greed flashed in Ji Qianhua's eyes. He is a typical lazy person. When he walked outside Ji's house, he couldn't help rubbing his hands when he saw the tile-roofed house built. It seems that the harvest this time will not be low. It looks like this, the third brother's family has made a lot of money.

Ji Qianhua didn't feel embarrassed either, so he went directly to Ji's house and knocked on the door.

It was Sun Fanyong who opened the door. He was packing the carriage in the yard, and the villagers borrowed it for use. There were many traces in the carriage. Ji Qingyue always loves to clean it, and he cleaned it early.

Seeing Ji Qianhua looking around at the door, he didn't know him: "Who are you looking for?"

Sun Fanyong didn't know him, so he was defenseless. Ji Qianhua went straight into Ji's courtyard. Seeing this luxurious courtyard, his eyes turned green, and he went straight to the main room. He was not stupid, he knew it was Chinese New Year , There must be delicious food in the main room.

Sun Fanyong felt that something was wrong, hurriedly went to stop him, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Madam Bai, someone is here, tell the girl and the master to come out quickly."
