Chapter 156 The Male Protagonist’s Best Mother (Forty-Three) Please vote for me at the end of the month
In the evening, Ji Keji came back from the academy.
As soon as I stepped into the back street of the academy, a figure jumped out.
Ji Keji originally thought she was a junior sister, so the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up.
But, after a moment, his smile became stiff: "Aweng?"
Why is this old rogue here?
Could it be that the junior sister guessed it?
A few days ago, the junior sister also said that "the trees want to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop."
Ji Keji was smart, and the key was that he knew enough about the people in the old house.
He knew very well that the junior sister was alluding to their relationship with the old house.
My life is getting better and better, and the people in the old house will definitely not be too peaceful.
That's a bunch of scoundrels who harm others without benefiting themselves.
Brothers are close to each other, sisters-in-law are close to each other, elders are kind, children are filial, wives are well-behaved... If a few years pass, maybe the county magistrate will write an inscription for the Zhao family.
Ji Keji raised his head and looked at Zheng Wanjun.
"Why is there no good way?"
And Old Man Ji is a greedy and selfish old bastard.
"Aweng! Uncle, second uncle, fourth uncle, fifth uncle!"
Alas, why can't my relatives be as kind as the relatives of the Zhao family?
This is called "beating magic with magic".
However, as smart as Ji Keji, he heard reminders and helplessness from his scoundrel grandfather, as well as a faint "threat".
"Oh, by the way, there's also Aunt Zhou. She borrowed grain, which cost at least one tael of silver."
"If you have a future, he can come over and say, I feel sorry for you, otherwise I wouldn't have informed you."
Why do you need to give money?
Ji Keji replied neither happy nor angry.
Well, he can't scold his direct grandfather like this, it violates filial piety.
This is the main purpose of Old Man Ji.
Moreover, he has indeed done something like "whistleblowing". As a junior, he should be forgiven generously.
"Didn't you say that you and Ji Sanlang's family are your own family? Ji Sanlang has owed my grandma's rent for half a year, which adds up to five taels of silver."
The next day, Old Man Ji led a group of people and killed him in front of Ji Sanlang's rented house on Academy Front Street.
If the elders are not kind, but they force their children and grandchildren to be filial, this is not a rogue behavior.
"Xiao Shiro, you are a good person. I am happy to see you succeed!"
Look at my uncle, he brings firewood, vegetables, etc. to Zhao Dalang every two or three days.
Old Man Ji didn't seem to notice. He looked around to make sure there was no one around, then lowered his voice and said, "Xiao Silang, I will go to your house tomorrow to ask for pension funds."
Some people who loved watching the fun couldn't help but gathered around.
If my father hadn't been kind-hearted, the third family of the Ji family would have been ruined from the moment Ji Sanlang's leg was broken.
"This is really great!"
"Third brother, if you don't come out, we will go to the academy to find Xiaoshiro——"
His heart felt warm.
"no!"
Zheng Wanjun said disdainfully, "Brother Keji, you are such a smart man."
Calling Ji Keji "brother" is reasonable and not out of line.
Zheng Wanjun's meaning was very clear. If the people in Ji's old house want to steal the blood of Ji Sanlang's family, they must first pay back the money for Ji Sanlang's family.
He seemed to want to prove something, so he didn't hide anything from Zheng Wanjun and said everything Old Man Ji said.
In fact, even if he knew that Old Man Ji would come to the house tomorrow to cause trouble, he couldn't think of a better way besides giving money.
After a family is divided, children and grandchildren are also children and grandchildren, and they must fulfill their filial piety.
Maybe it was too noisy, or maybe the last sentence was too lethal.
But the sage also said, "The father is kind and the son is filial."
Looking back at myself, my grandfather is an old rogue, my uncles are all jackals, and my cousins are even more difficult to describe!
"What?" Old Man Ji and his son were all stunned.
Old Man Ji didn't say that he was forced to come here by his sons.
Ji Keji:...I'm also puzzled.
Ji Keji is Mr. Zheng's direct disciple, and Zheng Wanjun is his junior sister.
"Lao San, come out quickly!"
In fact, the money had already been paid off when Ji Keji and Mr. Zheng opened a book printing workshop in partnership.
"What is he here for? Does he want to ask you for money?"
It can be said that the Zhao family is a model of the “Five Good Families” in the county.
"And Aunt Wu, Aunt Xu, Uncle Liu..."
"Even so, just pay back the money."
To deal with rogues, use rogue methods.
How miserable was the third member of the Ji family who was bullied?
However, Old Man Ji doesn't want to give up his other sons.
Zheng Wanjun smiled playfully.
"You unfilial son, our father is already here, why don't you come out quickly to greet him?"
You have never leveled that bowl of water.
"Where is your father? Let him come out!"
"My father is recovering from his injury, but the family is short of money, so he went to work."
"You are a family?"
"I can't help it. Although your family has been separated, your father is my son and you are my grandson, so you must be filial to me!"
Ji Keji cursed in his heart, and his face inevitably showed some coldness.
Zheng Wanjun thought seriously, then sneered, "So that's it!"
Ahem, the third child's legs were indeed broken because of him.
Ji Erlang took over as his eldest brother and got mad at Ji Keji.
"And Madam Gu from the back street also borrowed five taels of money!"
"Both sides make bets without offending each other."
Now that the third family of the Ji family is living a good life, and Xiao Silang has a future, old man Ji has come to pretend to be a kind and loving elder.
Zheng Wanjun counted a lot of things with mixed feelings, and then calculated the general ledger, "Ji Sanlang's family owes the neighbors a total of twenty-six taels and seven coins."
This courtyard is located opposite the academy.
But my grandfather is a well-known old rogue, and his reasoning doesn't make sense at all.
"Oh, five sons, if I indulge your family, your uncle and the others will not be happy!"
"Obviously he also wants to blackmail you, the third wife, but he still pretends to be helpless."
After yesterday's farce, Old Man Ji felt that the third room was still reliable.
At that time, old man Ji not only showed no kindness to Ji Sanlang's family, but took it upon himself to drive them out.
Therefore, it is best to live together.
Not all mistakes can be solved with a "I'm sorry".
"Humph, you know that the third child is a white-eyed wolf! After the family is separated, he will not care about his parents!"
Ji Keji: ...Haha, you still have the nerve to say "bring water".
As soon as Old Man Ji left, Zheng Wanjun came to greet him.
The only gratifying thing is that parents are no longer confused and start to know how to love their children.
If Lady Wan heard this, she wouldn't be too harsh.
Zheng Wanjun was already very familiar with Ji Keji, and his title changed from "Little Silang" to Ji Keji's brother.
However, the person who opened the door was not Ji Sanlang who had just recovered from his injuries, nor his wife Ji San, but Ji Kenji who was about to go out.
"Since my family is short of money, I might as well move back here."
And Mr. Zheng and his junior sister are even more rays of light in his life!
The two sons were defeated one after another, so Old Man Ji had to take action personally, "Xiao Silang, we are a family. It was Aweng who was confused before, so he separated you."
Old man Ji didn't seem to feel Ji Keji's rejection, he talked a lot, and then left without wanting to finish.
As an elder, you must keep a bowl of water level.
However, these words still made Ji Dalang feel slightly uncomfortable.
She almost missed Old Man Ji.
"He, this is a plan in advance."
Ji Keji pursed his lips.
"Lack of money? Didn't you say your family made a lot of money? Look at you, you are all wearing brand new clothes."
"Okay, don't be angry anymore! Don't worry, I'm not stupid. I'm not a saint either. I can't repay kindness with kindness."
But he informed the news in advance and had a look of sorrow and embarrassment on his face, all indicating: I didn't mean to cause trouble, I actually have other sons.
But, outsiders don’t know.
Ji Keji is no longer a young apprentice in a printing shop. He has studied and will take part in the imperial examination in the future. There must be no flaws in his reputation!
The best things about his grandfather and the old house were really not something he could give up if he wanted to.
"There is also Ji Sanlang's medical expenses, which cost a full six taels of silver."
Therefore, the arrival of Old Man Ji and his entourage aroused the attention of passing students and gentlemen.
This time, before Ji Keji could respond, Zheng Wanjun jumped out.
However, there is really no way around the word filial piety.
He just did the menial work himself, and also sent his sons and daughters to take care of the orphans and widows.
Why?
Evil people have done so much evil, but just because of a small act of kindness, can their grudges be wiped out?
Ji Keji lowered his head, looked at the moon-white robe made by his wife, and said calmly: "My wife gave this to me!"
"Yeah!" Ji Keji responded, unwilling to mention this scoundrel grandfather.
"In the past, the neighbors thought that Ji Sanlang was a separate family. Now they know that he still has relatives."
The best thing is that when you see someone else getting better, you will rush over to suck their blood, completely ignoring the past grudges!
A flash of disgust flashed in Zheng Wanjun's eyes.
"Huh? Your Aweng has changed his gender? You actually secretly tipped off the news?"
When he saw a group of people at the door, Ji Keji looked calm and politely saluted and said hello.
"Surprise" was written all over Zheng Wanjun's delicate and fair face, and he stretched out a fair and pink hand and said, "Give me some money."
Seeing that people who were once inferior to them are doing better than themselves, they will only feel jealous and try every means to make things worse.
Ridiculous or not?
Ji Keji saw that Zheng Wanjun was so angry that his pretty face turned red. He knew that Zheng Wanjun felt sorry for him and wanted to fight for his injustice.
"...Koshiro, prepare in advance and be prepared to deal with it easily! I'm leaving, and if I don't leave, someone will see me!"
"Brother Keji, is that your Aweng?"
The door to the small courtyard finally opened.
Old Man Ji is the elder, so he bowed his head and apologized to the younger generation.
Grandfather is indeed playing tricks, he should be like what the junior sister said.
Ji Keji is not stupid, of course he knows this.
Ji Dalang jumped out and shouted.
He also produced "evidence".
The people in Ji's old house didn't know.
Besides, as long as both parties involved bite each other to death, no one else can be sure whether they owe a debt or not.
Ji Dalang hurriedly cleared the relationship, "No! We are not a family! We have separated our families long ago. Ji Sanlang owes debts, let him repay them by himself!"
Damn, I thought the third child’s family was prosperous, but I didn’t expect that they were just donkey dung egg noodles!
