In the next few days, Ji Jianyun focused on Su Jinjun. As soon as he went to work, he came over and took Su Jinjun by the collar to practice his fist form. Ji Jianyun looked like a good brother.
But when Su Jinjun saw Ji Jianyun, his legs trembled.
In the past, he just thought that his brother-in-law was very annoying. He often made fun of him. But back then, he was just trying to make him annoyed. Ever since he was heavily beaten by Ji Jianyun yesterday, he was now a little afraid of his brother-in-law.
When Ji Jianyun grabbed his collar to go practice, Ji Jianhe, Xu Aidang and Ji Hongjun all envied him.
But they didnât envy how he wasnât working.
Although things on the mountain were busy and there was something to do every day, the work was spread out evenly among these strong men. Thus, there wasnât that much to do.
After finishing the work on the mountain, they could go to chat with Father Ji or Mother Ji, and then go down to do the farm work at home. It could be said that they had it very easy.
But generally, it wasnât always like this. They were driven and disciplined. They usually start work on time and leave work on time. They didnât leave work when it was late in the evening. They left at 5:30 if it was a good day. If not, it would be at 6:00. But even then, there was still light outside.
If there was farming to do in the field, they would do it after work, and it would be dark when they finished it.
People in the village worked and only went home once it was dark, so that the dark wasnât in their way.
What they envied was that Su Jinjun could learn martial arts from Ji Jianyun, which was a practical skill. After learning it, he could guard the orchard. He could be a long-term worker who did not have to worry about being replaced.
And the object of their envy, Su Jinjun, tried to persuade, âJianyun, Jianyun, listen to me. Donât worry about me. Iâll work for you. I wonât be lazy. Iâll really work for you!â
âI know. I donât doubt you, eldest brother. I just think you are a little weak, so I want to practice with you,â Ji Jianyun stated.
Then they started to fight. Su Jinjun never begged for mercy.
There was only one way to deal with such a prick like Su Jinjun. Hit him, hit him hard, hit him until he was afraid, hit him until he felt it in his bones, and then he wonât dare to be lazy again. Otherwise, he would keep doing it. It would have been insulting to Ji Jianyunâs teaching, so he was determined to never let this happen.
So on that day, Su Jinjun didnât do any work. He was beaten all day and couldnât rest. What horse stance, frog hops, and so on? At the end of the day, Su Jinjunâs anger became less and less.
Because he was unable to walk, Ji Jianyun drove him back.
Everyone who saw it said Ji Jianyun was a genuine young guy. He gave his brother-in-law a chance to move up. How did the Lao Su family get so lucky to find such a son-in-law? He was so much better than the son.
Su Danhong also heard the villageâs gossip and said with a smile, âEveryone is praising you for beating up my brother.â
Ji Jianyun chuckled, âBut Iâm only doing it for my brotherâs sake. Did you know, his muscles are tight everywhere. I had to loosen them up. But donât worry, wife. Iâm doing it nimbly. Heâll feel pain, but I didnât really hurt him.â
âI know.â Su Danhong thought about how she didnât care if her brother was really hurt. âBut if it was like that today, then he probably wonât come tomorrow.â
âI already have a plan. Tomorrow morning Iâll drive over to pick him up for work!â Ji Jianyun stated.
Su Danhong immediately smiled. This would not give Su Jinjun a chance to breathe at all, but it should be like this. It would once and for all dismantle Su Jinjunâs laziness.
âWhatâs for dinner tonight?â Ji Jianyun asked.
He was very hungry now and had just finished a workout. Although he still exercised, it could not compare to what he did while in the army. After training Su Jinjun, he trained himself.
He got hungry quickly.
âI made a chicken stew. Iâm going to steam the fish you caught yesterday with a plate of shredded potato on it,â Su Danhong said.
âI already smelled it a long time ago,â Ji Jianyun said.
Su Danhong knew that he was really hungry, so earlier she scooped a bowl of chicken stew for it to cool down, and then she began to cook.
The dinner was very delicious. Ji Jianyun was very satisfied with it. They ate early, it was only half past six.
It would have been dark at this time, but now dusk came later and the skies were gray.
Honk honk honk.
At this moment, the sound came from the truck outside.
Su Danhong was familiar with this sound. Itâs from Lao Qin who drove here.
Su Danhong was burping Renren in the yard. The little guy ate a lot tonight. Ji Jianyun went out.
Lao Qin was very energetic. It was obviously because he opened a good shop in the county town after listening to Ji Jianyunâs suggestion.
âJianyun, how many eggs do you have this time? Iâll take more,â Lao Qin said.
âYou can have as much as you want,â Ji Jianyun said.
With the weather warming up, the hens were beginning to lay eggs all the time, and there were more eggs every day.
âHowâs business?â Ji Jianyun asked. He got into his truck and they went up the mountain.
âPeople in the county town are willing to buy a lot. Business is very good,â Lao Qin said with a smile. âBut the landlord is not very honest. She saw that our business is doing well, so she wants to raise the rent.â
Ji Jianyun frowned. âThat really is not honest. We agreed on the rent for one year.â
âMy wife said she never expected the shop to do so well,â Lao Qin said.
âWhat do you mean? The shop is better than average. In the end, both my eggs and chickens are good to sell. Around seven out of ten eggs have two yolks, and the chickens are really tasty,â Ji Jianyun said.
âThatâs true.â Once this was spoken, Lao Qin smiled.
Anyone who bought the chickens and eggs from his shop were likely to be a repeat customer.
âGo and ask about the shop. If itâs possible, go buy it,â Ji Jianyun said at this moment.
Lao Qin was shocked. âBuy it? Itâs too expensive. It costs a lot.â
âGo and ask about it. Buy it if you can and if itâs not enough, come to me first to borrow some money. I still have some money,â Ji Jianyun said.
Lao Qin was so moved that he couldnât even keep a straight face. He declared, âOkay!â
This time, Lao Qin took a lot of eggs. There were almost five baskets. There were not that many live chickens, just 15 in five or six boxes. After a while, when the chicks grew up, there would be more. But for now there really were not that many.
Lao Qin also knew Ji Jianyun could only give a few of the chickens that he had just caught. The other chickens were for laying eggs and could not be caught.
However, he knew that when he drove back, his wife would be unhappy about how little there was. âThere are enough eggs, but how can you only catch this many chickens and come back? Did you not want to pay for it? Is Jianyunâs wife being fake? Does she want to raise the price? Iâm telling you, Lao Qin, stop going easy on them!â
