Chapter 511 Ji Lei's mother is gone
The more Lu Xingqing listened, the more confused she became.
She thought opening a Western restaurant meant just setting up a shop and hiring a few skilled Western chefs...
Who knew that there would be renovations, menu planning, cost control, and then the supply chain of ingredients...
Thinking of that little sister who was used to being a hands-off boss just like her...
"Sister-in-law, why don't you join us in partnership? We will all listen to you." Lu Xingqing said tentatively.
"I'm already busy as a top. How can I have the energy to run that western restaurant with you guys?" Jian Qingyi refused directly.
She has no interest in being a slave to a group of rich girls.
Besides, with her current wealth, she would have to be very desperate to go into business with others.
"Sister-in-law..." Lu Xingqing wanted to persuade her again.
The phone rang suddenly.
Jian Qingyi was sitting next to the phone and she picked up the call casually.
"Hello……"
"Yi Yi, is the political commissar at home?" Jian Yiwei's slightly anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.
"What's the matter?" Jian Qingyi asked.
"Ji Lei's mother is gone, Ji Lei is away on a mission, and your second sister is pregnant. Can you talk to the political commissar and ask him to approve a few days of leave for me and your sister-in-law?" Jian Yiwei said hurriedly.
"Wait a moment..." Jian Qingyi covered the microphone and shouted towards the terrace, "Yu Jing, come here."
The next second, Lu Yujing appeared at the door of the living room.
"What's wrong with my wife?" Seeing his young wife holding a phone in her hand, he hurried over.
"Ji Lei's mother has passed away. Ji Lei is away on a mission. My second sister is about to give birth. If there is nothing urgent in the military district, please approve a few days of leave for my eldest brother and sister-in-law so that they can help my second sister take care of Ji Lei's mother's funeral." Jian Qingyi spoke very quickly.
"Let your elder brother and sister-in-law go, and tell them that I agree." Lu Yujing glanced at the phone in his young wife's hand.
Jian Qingyi released the microphone she was covering, "Brother, Yu Jing has agreed, you and sister-in-law can go."
"Hey!" Jian Yiwei responded and hung up the phone anxiously.
On this side, Jian Qingyi also put down the phone.
"Sister-in-law, Sister Li Qiu's mother-in-law is gone?" Lu Xingning frowned slightly.
Jian Qingyi nodded.
"How come it's gone?" Lu Xingning asked.
"I didn't ask." Jian Qingyi shook her head.
In fact, she was also quite curious.
Ji Lei's mother looked very healthy, how could she just pass away?
"Don't worry, my elder brother and sister-in-law will take good care of my second sister." Lu Yujing gently held his young wife's hand.
Jian Qingyi nodded.
You say she is timid, but she dares to chase and beat up the tall and strong human traffickers. You say she is brave, but she gets scared when she sees a corpse.
It was not until Ji Lei's mother turned into ashes that Jian Qingyi went to Ji's house accompanied by Lu Yujing.
Before I even stepped into the Ji family's courtyard, the smell of sandalwood and burning paper money hit me in the face.
Outside the door of the mourning hall, Jian Liqiu, dressed in plain clothes, stood with her hands hanging down.
Maybe because she worked too hard, there were dark circles under her eyes.
Seeing that everyone in the Ji family was looking at this side, Jian Qingyi did not forget to say a few polite words when she handed over the gift package.
"Second sister, I'm so sorry!"
Jian Qingyi didn't have a very good impression of Ji Lei's mother.
Just because she persuaded Jian Liqiu to forgive Ji Zhuangzhuang, Jian Qingyi had no good impression of her.
Now seeing her turn into a handful of ashes, I don’t feel much.
Jian Liqiu nodded slightly and asked Jian Qingyi and Lu Yujing to go and burn incense.
A black and white photo of Ji Lei's mother was hung on the wall of the mourning hall. Although her eyes were smiling, Jian Qingyi found it particularly creepy.
After lighting the incense, Jian Qingyi didn't stay for a moment and turned around and left the mourning hall.
"Shh~"
Luo Zhenzhu, who was picking vegetables in the corner of the yard, made a small "hush" sound towards Jian Qingyi.
When Jian Qingyi heard the noise, she turned her head and met Luo Zhenzhu's wandering eyes.
She walked over quickly.
Luo Zhenzhu moved the small stool next to her in front of Jian Qingyi.
Jian Qingyi sat down.
Seeing that they seemed to have something to say, Lu Yujing didn't go over. Instead, he found a stool and sat down two or three meters away from his young wife.
"Sister-in-law, where are my brother and uncle? Why can't I see them?" Jian Qingyi looked around the courtyard.
If someone didn't have to stay at home to look after the child, I guess all the members of the Jian family's main branch would have to go out.
"I went to buy groceries." Luo Zhenzhu couldn't help but sigh.
When Ji Lei was not around, the people in the Ji family acted like big bosses, not caring about anything and just sitting there waiting for the meal to start.
"Didn't you notice that there's someone missing?" Luo Zhenzhu leaned towards Jian Qingyi and said in a low voice.
"Who's missing?" Jian Qingyi became interested.
Since Luo Zhenzhu asked this, there must be some gossip.
"See for yourself." Luo Zhenzhu kept the secret.
Jian Qingyi looked around the yard again.
"Ji Lei's sister-in-law and his nephew." She immediately found the answer.
"Do you know how Ji Lei's mother died?" Luo Zhenzhu looked around vigilantly, making sure that no one was eavesdropping before she whispered.
"How come it's gone?" Jian Qingyi's eyes flashed with gossip.
"He was angered to death by Ji Lei's sister-in-law." Luo Zhenzhu said something shocking.
Jian Qingyi widened her eyes.
Somewhat unbelievable.
Ji Lei's mother doesn't look like she has a heart disease!
"What made you angry? Tell me more." Jian Qingyi carried the bench and moved towards Luo Zhenzhu.
"I heard that Ji Lei's sister-in-law couldn't stand the loneliness, so she hooked up with a strange man outside and brought him home. Ji Lei's mother went to the bathroom in the middle of the night and heard some noise in her room, so she ran over and banged on the door..." Luo Zhenzhu gave Jian Qingyi a look.
"They were doing it when they heard banging on the door. They were so scared that the man put on his clothes and tried to escape through the window, but he was caught by a neighbor who heard the noise and rushed to check."
"The neighbor thought he was a thief and was about to hit him with a stick. Ji Lei's sister-in-law saw this and rushed to help. Ji Lei's mother was so angry that she picked up a stool and hit the man."
"Ji Lei's sister-in-law was worried about his mistress and went to stop them. The noise was so loud that it woke up Ji Zhuangzhuang, who then jumped up and helped his mother beat his grandmother. Ji Lei's mother doted on her eldest grandson like a precious darling, but when she saw this little thing coming out of her, she fainted from anger."
"When Ji Lei's sister-in-law and his mistress saw that they had gotten into trouble, they immediately took Ji Zhuangzhuang and ran away."
"In the end, the neighbors went to call the captain and the barefoot doctor from their village overnight."
"The barefoot doctor took one look, sighed, shook his head and left."
"I heard he died before daybreak."
Luo Zhenzhu curled her lips and clicked her tongue.
She treats him as her lifeblood, but he doesn't treat her as his own family member.
Jian Qingyi didn't expect that she would be able to eat such a big melon after coming to pay her condolences.
She knew that Huang Yingying was not a person who would settle down, but she didn't expect that she would bring someone home.
Ji Ben is dead. If she wants to find him, Ji Lei's mother probably can't stop her.
The reason why she chose to have an affair with him privately was probably because she couldn't bear to give up the few dozen dollars Ji Lei gave her every month.
after all……
An average worker only earns a few dozen yuan a month.
