Chapter 241: So What’s Wrong With Just Giving It to Me for Free?
There were new workers employed in the college town, and it was good for Ji Jianyun.
He had to deliver a lot of goods every day. If Ji Jianyun did not buy that shop, then he would have had the money to buy another truck bigger than the one he had at home.
It would have carried a lot of stuff and the transportation could be within one trip a day. It wasn’t like this vehicle, which sometimes had to make two trips a day.
Ji Jianyun made a lot of money selling pigs last year, but after opening a new shop, he spent a lot of money. He had also spent a lot on contracting the mountain, buying fruit saplings, and paying workers' wages.
So Ji Jianyun paused on buying a truck.
Strawberries are now on the market.
At this time last year, Qiqi couldn't fully eat it and could only take a nibble. This year he ran all over the mountain for them.
At two years old, he walked very well, but he didn’t like walking. He usually ran. He ate a lot, but he didn’t have the roundness that a normal child should have. It had to be mentioned this little guy was extremely energetic.
Ever since the strawberries on the mountain began to ripen, he didn’t stay at home anymore. After breakfast in the morning, his friends would come to see him. He was like a bird that was allowed to fly. He wouldn't come back until dinner time. Every time he came back, he was like a tabby cat, and he would tell his mother what he had done today, such as picking out bird eggs and so on.
When Renren was this age, he was polite like a small milk bun, and very cute. How could he be as skinny as a monkey like this second child?
Su Danhong did not dampen Qiqi’s enthusiasm, and just told him to be careful when going out to play.
“I know, I didn't go far either. Goudan and the others asked me to play in the water, but I didn't even go,” Qiqi said.
“It's good that you didn't go. Your father said that you can't play in the water at your age now. When you are six or seven years old, he will take you to the reservoir to play. Isn't the water there better than the water in the river?” Su Danhong said.
“I know,” Qiqi rolled his eyes slightly and replied.
His father would have beaten him up if he had dared to follow those big kids into the river again. It would be to the point where he wouldn’t even want to go to the reservoir. The reservoir was very active, with ducks and sheep around. There were a lot of ducks there, and there weren’t any on the mountains.
Qiqi never went into the river, but he once played in the water with his feet. However, after his father threatened not to take him to feed the ducks in the future, he didn't even play with the water anymore.
“Your brother and sister are picking strawberries on the mountain. Why didn't you go help?” Su Danhong asked.
“I went to help. I picked a basket before running off to play!” Qiqi said.
“Your dad came back yesterday and said that your grandma’s waist is not very good and still needs help. It's unfortunate that you didn't help when you are so capable. I expected you to be like an adult,” Su Danhong said.
Hearing this, Qiqi's eyes lit up and he said immediately, “I can do it, I can be an adult!”
“Then finish drinking the water and go up the mountain later,” Su Danhong said.
“Okay!” Qiqi nodded.
Although this kid was naughty, he was a man of his word. After drinking the water and changing into clean clothes, he refused his friend's invitation and went up the mountain.
After Su Danhong finished cleaning up the house, she also went up the mountain.
Renren and Yan'er were both resting by drawing. Su Danhong asked, “Where is your brother?”
“He was washing strawberries and said he wanted to give them to grandma,” Yan'er said.
Renren said, “Brother has become very diligent today, and he pays special attention to grandma. He follows grandma wherever she goes. Grandma said she was going to younger aunt’s house, and he also said he would follow her.”
Su Danhong smiled. “Then let him do that.”
They were all family. Even though Ji Yunyun didn't return to her parents' home this year, her mother still thought about sending some strawberries to her. She probably thought about how it was better to eat more fruits when she was pregnant. Besides, the ones in the mountains were all pesticide-free. And yes, it was sweet.
“Aunt doesn't like us. Third aunt, please don't let Qiqi go,” Yan'er said.
She could tell that aunt didn't like them.
Su Danhong didn't say anything. What Yan'er said was true. However, Ji Yunyun was still nice to Yan'er, but not to Renren and Qiqi seriously.
But it was fine to let Qiqi go for a walk with his grandma.
When Qiqi came back from washing the strawberries, he saw his mom coming, so he ran over and said, “Mom, grandma said she is going to aunt’s house in the afternoon, and I'm going too!”
“Have you asked grandma?” Su Danhong said.
“I asked, and she said yes. She also asked my brother and my sister, but they didn't want to go,” Qiqi said.
He was still young and couldn’t tell good from bad. However, Yan'er and Renren obviously knew.
This was the last time Yan'er would stay here. She was going to go over to Jiangshui City on September 1st to go to kindergarten.
“Okay, just don't stray too far away from grandma. You have to take care of grandma, okay?” Su Danhong said. “If you go out with grandma, then I’m going to give you this task.”
“Okay!” Qiqi agreed seriously.
In the afternoon, Qiqi went to the county town with his grandma. Rickshaws have been available to use since this year. The price from here to the county town was 60 cents, which was not expensive. In the past, Mother Ji definitely was not willing to spend this money.
But now she had a lot of money. After discussing the price, she took Qiqi to her daughter's house.
In order to prevent Ji Yunyun from looking down on her son, Su Danhong asked her to carry another basket of eggs and a chicken. There was also a basket of strawberries, as well as some peanuts and soybeans that Mother Ji bought from a neighbor's house.
“I’m so thankful mother that you still remember that you have a daughter like me. It's been so long since I got married, and you've only come to see me once,” Ji Yunyun came downstairs and said. Then she saw Qiqi, and she frowned. “Mother, just come here by yourself, why did you bring her son here?”
Young Qiqi was smart and he knew how to identify the emotions of many adults. He could clearly feel that his aunt doesn't like him, so he kept a straight face and said nothing. He just followed his grandma so that she wouldn’t be bullied by this person.
His mother had given him this task!
“You're not welcoming us, right? If you're not, then we'll go back!” Mother Ji said with an upset face.
“Mother, I didn’t do that,” Ji Yunyun said.
“This is what your third sister-in-law is giving you, a basket of eggs and this chicken!” Mother Ji said.
“It's barely anything.” Ji Yunyun curled her lips. “If I wait for her to give me barely anything, then your grandson and I would be so hungry!”
“Jianjun said that Lao Qin said hello, and if you go over and buy from him, it will be the wholesale price,” Mother Ji said.
“Third brother is really stingy. He is so stingy to his own sister. I'm pregnant, so what's wrong with just giving it to me for free?” Ji Yunyun said.
Her pregnancy was at almost six months, and she looked quite plump.
