LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 254: Sister-In-Law
Since the engagement, Su Danhong saw a joy on Ji Guangzong's face that was different from before.
Although he said that he was not in a hurry to get a wife, a boy of his age would definitely be thinking about it. After he settled on a girl, his whole demeanor changed.
But there were still three years left, so he still had to wait.
Su Danhong was making delicious food for herself in the kitchen that day. She already knew that she was pregnant.
A few nights ago, she missed Ji Jianyun. When she wanted it, Ji Jianyun said he didn't want it, but he gave it to her after he couldn't get rid of her. His movements were extremely gentle, and not strong like how it usually was. It gave her a different taste of him
She asked him afterwards, why did he change his ways today? She didn't understand why he was so gentle.
Ji Jianyun had to tell his naive wife that she was pregnant and somehow she didn't know yet.
Su Danhong was in shock at that moment. She checked her own pulse and realized that she was really pregnant. Then she thought about it, maybe she hadn't been pregnant for a long time?
So Ji Jianyun was taught a lesson. He was not allowed to do that with her for the first three months. Even if she didn't know about it tonight, he couldn't help it!
But he went gently, without exerting a lot of force, and gave her a lot of attention.
After knowing that she was pregnant, Su Danhong felt relieved, but sometimes it was still very annoying. Ji Jianyun was tortured a lot for not being able to do it, but he didn't dare to mess around. He had a taste of sweetness, and that little sweetness was not enough.
But Su Danhong ignored him. Now that she's pregnant, she paid more attention to what she ate, and she needed to exercise.
As a mother of two, she had already realized that moving around more during the pregnancy would make giving birth easier and not as scary as it was in her previous life.
After dinner that day, she took Renren, Qiqi and Da Hei to the third orchard as usual.
Ji Guangzong and Cai Zhanguo had finished watering, and they both went back. The mom and her sons watered the fruit trees together.
The third orchard was thriving and growing well. If she watered it with more spiritual spring water this year, it would be ready to bloom and bear fruit next year.
People in the village were saying that the third orchard was improving. There are four mountains in the village, and the last one was Lao Ma’s family. After seeing the state of Ji Jianyun’s third orchard, Lao Ma’s family felt that their orchard was still good and salvageable.
But the family couldn’t. Meanwhile, Ji Jianyun's third orchard was full of life, and how long had it been since he got it?
Eventually, Lao Ma's family went to see Ji Jianyun, saying they wanted to transfer the mountain.
Ji Jianyun said no and refused.
Lao Ma's family thought that he would want it. They didn't expect him not to. They became anxious. Why do other people want it, but not him? Was their orchard really that bad?
Ji Jianyun explained it more politely. He said that he did not have the time. The third orchard was just slowly being worked on. He had a lot of things to do, and it was the busy fruit season. How could he have time to work on another mountain?
It was truly busy right now. The fruits on the mountain were ripe one after another and it had to be harvested. A lot of produce had to be shipped every day. How could he find the time to take care of a fourth mountain? Naturally, he didn’t even think about it.
However, from Lao Ma family's point of view, they thought he didn't want it anymore, and that he didn’t have any money for it. They thought that the 100 yuan they spent on buying fruit saplings was wasted.
Ji Jianyun was not interested in what they thought. It was the busy fruit season, and the fruit trees on both mountains had to be picked.
After harvesting the fruits, he drove to the college town and Jiangshui City to quickly ship everything out. If the fruits were not good, they would be thrown out. If it was picked today, then it had to be sold today. It could also be sold tomorrow, but the day after tomorrow, the fruits would not be very fresh.
Fortunately, in their area, his orchard was the only one that could manage this timing. There were a few others, but they were not as good as his. Also, the market for fruits was pretty large.
Especially in the past two years, the economy in the town and the county had developed rapidly. Everyone had enough money to buy some fruits to eat back at home.
It was very busy until summer vacation time.
That summer, Ji Jianwen and Yun Lili both returned. There was no cram school, and they even brought back the 500 yuan they had to pay back.
The wages in Jiangshui City have been raised, but it has been extremely difficult for the couple to save 500 yuan to pay it back in such a short period of time.
Ji Jianwen looked skinny like he didn’t eat well, and Yun Lili was also relatively skinny.
Yun Lili and Su Danhong’s relationship was relatively okay before, but it got much better in the past two years.
When Yun Lili came to visit, Su Danhong asked her, “Do you still owe money?”
“No more!” When Yun Lili said this, there was unconcealable happiness on her face.
In order to buy this home several years ago, she had to go bankrupt and go into debt. She and Jianwen had a hard time in the past few years. How now that they had survived, when she looked back she didn’t think it was that bad.
She had her own home in Jiangshui City. Even If it was 80 square meters, it was still worth it.
She felt like she would never regret it in her life.
How much has the price increased from a few years ago? It would definitely be even more unaffordable, but she pulled herself together and encouraged Jianwen to buy it back then!
“Since you have paid it off, you can live a better life in the future. You don't have to save as much. Have you seen how thin you and brother-in-law have become?” Su Danhong wondered truthfully.
Yun Lili laughed when she heard this. In front of third sister-in-law, she didn't care about saving anymore. She couldn’t compare to her, but there was also nothing to compare to. She was naive and ignorant before, but after all these years, didn’t she learn?
How much did it cost to raise her daughter in this place? She, Yun Lili, was not that kind of person who didn’t realize the costs.
“I don't care anymore. We will only save for Yan'er’s education in the future. She is still young, so there is not as much pressure,” Yun Lili said with a smile.
She and Jianwen only had one child, so the pressure was not as big.
“As for you, I heard from mother that you have another baby?” Yun Lili looked at her belly.
“Well, it's more than two months old, so it's still developing,” Su Danhong said. “Come over to our house with brother-in-law for dinner tonight.”
“Okay,” Yun Lili agreed.
Su Danhong made a lot of delicious food that evening. It included meat, soup, and fish.
Ji Jianwen looked at it and said, “Sister-in-law, you’ve prepared too much. We are all family, so there is no need to do this.”
“If your third sister-in-law cooked this, then you should eat more,” Ji Jianyun said to him. He was the one who provided for his younger brother and was burdened with making payments before. Didn’t he know what life under financial duress was like?
Both husband and wife were very weak, but they could take Yan’er home with them.
Things have become more relaxed. They did not have debt and their salary was not low. They also had their own home in Jiangshui City, so life will be good in the future.
