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.
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.
And Old Man Ji is a greedy and selfish old bastard.
Well, he can't scold his direct grandfather like this, it violates filial piety.
However, the sage also said, "The father is kind and the son is filial."
If the elders are not kind, but they force their children and grandchildren to be filial, this is not a rogue behavior.
But my grandfather is a well-known old rogue, and his reasoning doesn't make sense at all.
Ji Keji cursed in his heart, and his face inevitably showed some coldness.
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."
"I can't help it. Although your family has been divided, your father is my son and you are my grandson. You must be filial to me!"
"Oh, five sons, if I indulge your family, your uncle and the others will not be happy!"
Old Man Ji didn't say that he was forced to come here by his sons.
But he informed the news in advance and had a sad and embarrassed look on his face, all indicating: I didn't mean to cause trouble, I actually have other sons.
As an elder, you must keep a bowl of water level.
Ji Keji: ...Haha, you still have the nerve to say "bring water".
You have never leveled that bowl of water.
However, as smart as Ji Keji, he heard reminders and helplessness from his scoundrel grandfather, as well as a faint "threat".
After a family is divided, children and grandchildren are also children and grandchildren, and they must fulfill their filial piety.
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.
Alas, why can't my relatives be as kind as the relatives of the Zhao family?
Look at my uncle, he brings firewood, vegetables, etc. to Zhao Dalang every two or three days.
He just did the menial work himself, and also sent his sons and daughters to take care of the orphans and widows.
It can be said that the Zhao family is a model of the "five good families" in the county.
Brothers are close to each other, sisters-in-law are close to each other, elders are kind, children are filial, wives are taken care of...if a few years pass, maybe the county magistrate will write an inscription for the Zhao family.
Looking back at myself, my grandfather is an old rogue, my uncles are all jackals, and my cousins are even more difficult to describe!
The only gratifying thing is that parents are no longer confused and start to know how to love their children.
And Mr. Zheng and his junior sister are even more rays of light in his life!
"...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!"
"Xiao Shiro, you are a good person. I am happy to see you succeed!"
Old man Ji didn't seem to feel Ji Keji's rejection, he talked a lot, and then left without wanting to finish.
As soon as Old Man Ji left, Zheng Wanjun came to greet him.
She almost missed Old Man Ji.
"Brother Keji, is that your Aweng?"
Zheng Wanjun was already very familiar with Ji Keji, and his title changed from "Little Silang" to Ji Keji's brother.
Ji Keji is Mr. Zheng's direct disciple, and Zheng Wanjun is his junior sister.
Calling Ji Keji "brother" is reasonable and not out of line.
If Lady Wan heard this, she wouldn't be too harsh.
"Yeah!" Ji Keji responded, unwilling to mention this scoundrel grandfather.
"What is he here for? Does he want to ask you for money?"
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.
Ji Keji pursed his lips.
"no!"
He seemed to want to prove something, so he didn't hide anything from Zheng Wanjun and said everything Old Man Ji said.
"Huh? Your Aweng has changed his gender? You actually secretly tipped off the news?"
Ji Keji:...I'm also puzzled.
Zheng Wanjun thought seriously, then sneered, "So that's it!"
Ji Keji raised his head and looked at Zheng Wanjun.
Zheng Wanjun said disdainfully, "Brother Keji, you are such a smart man."
"Both sides make bets without offending each other."
"Obviously he also wants to blackmail you, the third wife, but he still pretends to be helpless."
"He, this is a plan in advance."
"If you have a future, he can come over and say, I feel sorry for you, otherwise I wouldn't have informed you."
Old Man Ji is the elder, so he bowed his head and apologized to the younger generation.
Moreover, he has indeed done something like "whistleblowing". As a junior, he should be forgiven generously.
Why?
Evil people have done so much evil, but just because of a small act of kindness, can their grudges be wiped out?
Not all mistakes can be solved with a "I'm sorry".
How miserable was the third member of the Ji family who was bullied?
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.
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.
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.
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.
His heart felt warm.
"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."
Grandfather is indeed playing tricks, he should be like what the junior sister said.
Ji Keji is not stupid, of course he knows this.
However, there is really no way around the word filial piety.
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.
"Why is there no good way?"
Zheng Wanjun smiled playfully.
To deal with rogues, use rogue methods.
This is called "beating magic with magic".
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.
This courtyard is located opposite the academy.
Therefore, the arrival of Old Man Ji and his entourage aroused the attention of passing students and gentlemen.
Some people who loved watching the fun couldn't help but gathered around.
"Lao San, come out quickly!"
"You unfilial son, our father is already here, why don't you come out quickly to greet him?"
"Humph, you know that the third child is a white-eyed wolf! After the family is separated, he will not care about his parents!"
"Third brother, if you don't come out, we will go to the academy to find Xiaoshiro——"
Maybe it was too noisy, or maybe the last sentence was too lethal.
The door to the small courtyard finally opened.
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.
"Aweng! Uncle, second uncle, fourth uncle, fifth uncle!"
When he saw a group of people at the door, Ji Keji looked calm and politely saluted and said hello.
"Where is your father? Let him come out!"
Ji Dalang jumped out and shouted.
"My father is recovering from his injury, but the family is short of money, so he went to work."
Ji Keji replied neither happy nor angry.
However, these words still made Ji Dalang feel slightly uncomfortable.
Ahem, the third child's legs were indeed broken because of him.
"Lack of money? Didn't you say your family made a lot of money? Look at you, you are all wearing brand new clothes."
Ji Erlang took over as his eldest brother and got mad at Ji Keji.
He also produced "evidence".
Ji Keji lowered his head, looked at the moon-white robe made by his wife, and said calmly: "My wife gave this to me!"
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."
"Since my family is short of money, I might as well move back here."
This is the main purpose of Old Man Ji.
After yesterday's farce, Old Man Ji felt that the third room was still reliable.
However, Old Man Ji doesn't want to give up his other sons.
Therefore, it is best to live together.
"You are a family?"
This time, before Ji Keji could respond, Zheng Wanjun jumped out.
"This is really great!"
"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."
"What?" Old Man Ji and his son were all stunned.
Why do you need to give money?
"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."
"There is also Ji Sanlang's medical expenses, which cost a full six taels of silver."
"And Madam Gu from the back street also borrowed five taels of money!"
"Oh, by the way, there's also Aunt Zhou. She borrowed grain, which cost at least one tael of silver."
"And Aunt Wu, Aunt Xu, Uncle Liu..."
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."
"In the past, the neighbors thought that Ji Sanlang was a separate family. Now they know that he still has relatives."
"Even so, just pay back the money."
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.
In fact, the money had already been paid off when Ji Keji and Mr. Zheng opened a book printing workshop in partnership.
But, outsiders don’t know.
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!
