Chapter 53 Three Beasts
The old blind man did not respond to Ji's mother's doubts. He combined the two people's horoscopes again and got a surprising result. He glanced at Ji Changyu's tall figure, shook his head and laughed.
"Any day is a good day for a wedding banquet. Just hold it when it's convenient for you."
Since it is a coincidence, how you live your life depends entirely on yourself. He had heard a little about Boss Ji's character and abilities, and believed that the two of them would not have a bad life.
Ji's mother breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the two of them were a match made in heaven, so there was no need to pick a special date.
"That's great, thank you. Please come and serve the wine."
When they turned the corner, Ji Changyu glanced at his mother, whose face was filled with joy, and raised the corner of his mouth, "How can every day be a good day? Don't you find it strange?"
"That's because you two are such a perfect match! When are you going to bring your daughter-in-law and grandson back home? You can bring them back first and then prepare the feast. No one will say anything."
Ji Changyu was silent for a while, "I will go to pick them up tomorrow morning, and have a banquet the day after tomorrow."
Thinking about seeing her eldest grandson again tomorrow, Ji Mule couldn't even clap her hands.
On the way back to the central courtyard, Aunt Huang and Huang Aihua, who lived in the ear room, came towards them. Aunt Huang's eyes flashed slightly and she glanced at Ji Changyu's niece who was staring at her.
"Sister Ji, did you just come out from the old blind man?"
"...Yes." When Ji's mother thought about introducing Huang Aihua to Ji Changyu, she wanted to take a pill of regret.
He had just finished meeting the girl, and right after that the eldest son brought his wife and eldest grandson into the house. Isn't this insulting!
The two families live very close to each other, and they see each other every day. How can this be possible?
Ji's mother winked at Ji Changyu, who looked calmly at the night sky, as if to say, "You've done something good and I'll find a way to do it myself." Ji's mother had to endure the embarrassment and explain with a fake smile.
"Well, come to think of it, it's my fault. A few years ago, Hengzi suddenly told me that he had fallen in love with a girl, but I refused to give in because I thought her conditions were not good enough. I never expected that they would get their marriage certificate without my knowledge and kept it a secret for several years."
As she spoke, she looked at Huang Aihua's ugly face, sighed, and quickly added.
"I asked Hengzi to go see her the day before yesterday, and he had no choice but to tell her that he and that girl had a child. I have always thought that Hengzi did not want to get married because there was something wrong with that aspect."
Aunt Huang patted her niece's hand, looking surprised, "They even had a child?"
Mother Ji smiled and said, "Yes, they are already over five years old. Hengzi is serving in the army in the north, so the girl raised the child at her parents' home. So, I want Uncle Blind to choose a good day for the two children, hold a formal banquet and bring them back home."
Aunt Huang's face didn't look very good.
"If I had known they would do this, my niece... I don't know what to say to you."
She had been eyeing Ji Changyu for a long time. She had let her niece get in touch with him before, but Ji Changyu was like a piece of wood and didn't seem to be able to react at all. In addition, he seldom came back, so she gave up.
When she heard that Ji Changyu had returned a few days ago and her niece happened to be single, she became interested again. But Ji Changyu was even more surprising this time as he actually had a son outside.
After she finished speaking in one breath, Ji's mother became relaxed and said with a smile, "I'm so sorry, I'll invite you guys to have a drink tomorrow."
This matter must be revealed to everyone in the compound sooner or later. Otherwise, it would be worse if those people made wild guesses when my daughter-in-law and eldest grandson move in.
Looking at their backs as they entered the house, Huang Aihua stamped her feet with a look of resignation on her face, "Aunt, do you think what they said is true? Could it be that he fell in love with the widow and deliberately said this to others just to save face?"
Aunt Huang hesitated for a moment, "Not really, everyone knows that Ji asked someone to introduce a widow to his son."
"Anyway, I don't believe he really has a son that old!"

After seeing Ji Changyu off, Xu Yao walked to the backyard and saw that Sun Daying had changed back into his ragged clothes and was bending over to help Liu Mei cook.
By the time she had finished meeting the men, it was already close to five in the afternoon and the bus back to the village had stopped. Liu Mei was worried about the girl walking back alone at night, so she let her stay here for one night.
Seeing them come back, Sun Daying smiled at Xu Yao with a heavy heart.
Xu Yao's eyes swept calmly across the hanging rope in the yard, on which hung the clothes she lent to Sun Daying.
Liu Mei was used to saving clothes to wash together after taking a shower at night, so Sun Daying had to wash them by herself.
In fact, Xu Yao would not say anything if the clothes were saved for washing at night, but Sun Daying's knowledge and taste were different from those of Sun Yanfang and Yingzi's mother, which made Xu Yao like her more. She asked with a smile.
"How was the blind date?"
Sun Daying paused while cooking. "He's a good guy. Although he's not good-looking, he's well off. His parents are both workers, and he has several older sisters who can help us."
Xu Yao didn't expect that she was exposed to the truth. She raised her eyebrows and told her what she heard from Aunt Wu.
"When choosing a man, you can't just look at his family. His ability is also important. I heard that he is still lying in bed waiting for his family to serve him."
Liu Mei came in with a dustpan and asked Sun Daying to go and rest for a while. She took the spatula and continued cooking, then took over the conversation and commented.
"As the old saying goes, get married first and then start a career. The man said that after they get married, he will let his mother give him the job in the printing factory. Yingzi is a hardworking person, and the couple can make a living no matter what."
Xu Yao frowned.
His nature is there. If he wanted to change, he would have done so long ago. What that man said is not credible no matter how you look at it.
"Why don't you ask a matchmaker to help you? Look at a few more and then decide."
Sun Daying smiled bitterly.
After meeting Li Jichang, she was not very satisfied. Aunt Wu next door enthusiastically introduced a matchmaker to her. However, when the matchmaker heard that she was from a rural household, she bluntly said that her household registration and appearance were not good, and advised her to find someone else.
The next matchmaker she found said something similar, and then took her to meet a man with a broken leg and a naked idiot.
It is difficult for rural people to marry into the city. In comparison, Li Jichang is her best choice.
"Sister, I know you are doing this for my own good, so I decided to marry him. He is willing to give me 200 yuan as a betrothal gift, which is higher than the betrothal gifts in the countryside, and I can get rid of that family, so there is nothing I am dissatisfied with."
It turned out that Yingzi's mother gave birth to a group of babies after giving birth to four daughters.
Yingzi is the fourth child in the family. Her first three older sisters were sold by her mother for the bride price.
The eldest sister married into the mountains and became a common wife to five brothers, the second sister married an old man as his second wife, and the third sister married a man who beat his wife to death. Yingzi's mother wanted to collect Yingzi's dowry and build a big house for Dajun so that he could find a wife in the future.
In order to get the bride price, Yingzi's mother didn't care about her daughter's life or death. After marrying her daughter off, she would come to ask for money from time to time.
The husband's family, who had already offered a high price as a betrothal gift in an attempt to buy out the daughters-in-law, became even more dissatisfied with their daughters-in-law due to Yingzi's mother's unethical behavior. They did not treat them as human beings at all. In the eyes of the husband's family, the three sisters were just animals that could be disposed of at will.
