Rebirth to the Eighties to Get Rich

Chapter 231: A Glorious and Rich Happy New Year



Now Ji Jianhe was like a brick. He went to support wherever they needed him. He did not have a steady assignment. When Ji Jianyun asked him to go to the reservoir to fish for fish, he had to go. Sometimes he was asked to go patrolling the mountains, or he had to go and deliver goods. He obeyed all the orders.

He had no choice. Who told him that this cousin would come up with these tricks?

Just when he was about to voice his opinion, Ji Jianyun said that after the New Year, the salary would be increased. And how much was the increase?

It increased to 40 yuan a month!

In one sentence, Ji Jianhe's original objections were wiped out. 40 yuan was a lot. The living expenses with his wife were fifteen yuan a month. WIth this, they could have meat every now and then.

He could be considered successful now, right? After all, he had a stable wage.

His wife was treating him better. It wasn't like when she wanted a divorce or when she didn't give him a second look day long. She even said that the money would be saved. When they become richer, their child will have a good life in the future. She lived through a difficult life, and she didn’t want their child to grow up like her.

He didn't care about children right now. He was very busy these days. Ji Jianyun no longer needed him to make deliveries. He had Su Anbang do it, and JI Jianhe went up the mountain to cook pig food. He had been very busy for a while and wanted to sleep as soon as he got home.

Fortunately, his wife is considerate. She prepared very delicious meals for him at home and waited for him to come back to eat together

Su Juan did not forget to put up boundaries and said, “I am not your mother. Father would be so tired from work, and whenever he came home, there was not much left to eat. It was also all cold. No wonder father doesn’t like giving her money now.”

She believed that she still cared about her man. She knew that he was busy, so she didn't miss feeding him any meals. Recently, Su Juan angrier.

If it hadn't been for that old woman, she would have had one of the pigs by now!

But it was a blessing in disguise. Without the old woman to spoil Ji Jianhe, her man began to grow up. Su Juan’s mother was right. A woman didn’t need to be more capable as long as the man was and just took care of the house.

Ji Jianhe didn't have time to talk about this anymore. After eating, he went to lie down. He was exhausted.

Ji Jianyun started killing pigs the next day. He called Butcher Li over to do it since they were in-laws. Butcher Li didn’t take the money and said with a smile, “Just give me a big pig head, nothing else.”

“Okay.” Ji Jianyun also smiled back.

When he came back from the capital, he gave a Peking duck to this relative as a sign of goodwill.

Because the price of pork had increased, the price of killing pigs had also increased. For killing 29 pigs, getting a pig head was not a lot as payment.

On the 20th of December, the pigs were starting to be killed. He killed seven pigs. Lao Qin and Su Jindang came over early in the morning to wait for it to happen. As soon as the killing was finished, they took the meat away. They wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to sell the meat fresh.

Half of the pig was sold to the villagers, and the rest was taken to the college town.

Some of the remaining pigs were put in water, but some were kept and distributed among the villagers and neighbors. Ji Feng got intestines and some blood. He was very happy, and gladly took it home.

Some other people got some meat too, but not a lot.

In the next few days, Ji Jianyun killed more pigs. 29 pigs seemed like a lot, but they were not all killed.

In the end, he killed a lot that day and kept everything for his long term workers. Two kilograms of pork, kidneys, hearts, lungs, and intestines were all given to them. They were also given half a basket of eggs, brown sugar and white sugar. It was a bit more than previous years’ New Year’s goods!

Others didn't talk about it, but Su Juan, Ji Jianhe, and Su Anbang were all very excited to get these things. It was the first time they got New Year's goods. Now that the New Year's goods were here, they could save this food to celebrate the New Year, and eat well without buying anything!

Su Juan looked at these things and said to Ji Jianhe, “You have to work hard next year, you know? If you don’t work hard, you won't be able to live well in the future!”

“I know, do you still need to say it?” Ji Jianhe replied with annoyance.

Even so, seeing his wife so happy made him feel quite happy.

“By the way, I haven't had my period this month, so I'm most likely pregnant,” Su Juan added.

Ji Jianhe didn't take it seriously. “Just get pregnant anytime.”

It was not the first time she had gotten pregnant. She got pregnant not long after they got married. However, the couple did not pay attention to things. Not long after Su Juan entered the house, she wanted to show her diligence by fetching water. She accidentally fell, and it was gone. Since then, she has not been able to conceive.

Su Juan knew that he didn't care about it yet since in the past two years, there was no movement in her stomach and he didn't say a word. However, the old woman made trouble a few times. She touched her belly and said, “We will depend on you to make a living. If you want us to live a good life, you can’t lose this job!”

She had a taste of the sweet life. This was the advantage of having a rich relative. Look, Ji Jianyun, the third cousin, still decided to take good care of her husband. Last time he came back from the capital, he gave him a pack of white rabbit candy. She took half of the pack and returned it to her parents' house to give to her nephews. They were very happy and she got more respect.

Let’s look at this New Year. How many things did they receive? Two kilograms of pork when the price of pork was so high now.

There was also half a basket of eggs weighing two kilograms, and a pack of brown sugar and a pack of white sugar. They were all good things that could be used. There were also melon seeds. There were a lot of things.

She could bring some things back to her parents' house during the New Year. Her sister-in-law and the others would have to be polite to her.

That’s why she could never let her man lose his job.

“How many times do you have to say it? I know,” Ji Jianhe said.

Su Juan just ignored him.

Aunt Li waited for a long time, but she didn't see her youngest son bring something back for her. Moreover, Ji Jianyun killed so many pigs, but she didn't get anything.

Her eldest son brought some things over. It was half a catty of pork and a pack of sugar. It wasn’t a lot, but she still took it. She waited and waited for her younger son, but didn’t get anything. When Su Juan took the things back to her parents' house, Aunt Li's face became extremely ugly.

But no matter whether she was upset or not, life still went on.

After killing the pigs, it was the 28th.

This year, Ji Jianwen and Yun Lili didn't come back until this day. There was no reason for it. The couple worked hard and had opened a cram school for two weeks and tutored students. This earned them almost a month's salary. They were also paid while on vacation, so it was like they were receiving double the salary.
