No one knew how Ji Huaizhi grew up. He lived under everyone's eyes, but no one cared about him. It was not until he became the "big brother" in people's eyes that people in the alley suddenly realized and became afraid of him.
Before Ji Huaizhi could speak, Li Yang stood in front of him.
She straightened her back and looked at Feng Mei angrily: "Mom, the national policy has been released. There is no such thing as a stinking ninth. They are all being exploited by bad people. How can you still say that?
Putting all this aside, have you also forgotten the kindness that Mr. Ji has shown to our hunting village? His family are all good people, they were wronged, you can’t say that to them! "
In the previous life, it took only two years to restore the reputation of the Ji family. Not only was the reputation of the Ji family restored, but the illegally confiscated property was also returned to Ji Huaizhi. This was news that shocked the entire Guangzhou at the time.
Ji Huaizhi looked at the delicate and weak little girl standing in front of him. She was using her not-so-tall body to speak up for him and defend his family's reputation. Her back overlapped with the small figure from that year, and his vision blurred for a moment.
He lowered his eyes, sniffed his nose which suddenly felt sour, and stopped looking.
Feng Mei looked at her daughter, who was becoming increasingly unfamiliar to her, and became furious: "They say a daughter who is married off is like spilled water. You just got the marriage certificate, and you're already turning your elbow outward?
If their family was wrongly accused, why hasn't the government proven their guilt after so many years? In my opinion, their whole family is scum!"
"Mom!" Li Yang wanted to argue, but was stopped by Ji Huaizhi behind him.
His expression was calm, the corners of his upturned eyes were slightly red, and his tone seemed to be comforting her: "Okay, I know."
He pulled Li Yang behind him, looked at Feng Mei with disdain, and said, "Whether you agree or not, Li Yang and I are already married. From today on, she is mine, and no one can bully her. Do you understand?"
Ji Huaizhi's intimidating aura startled Feng Mei. She nodded subconsciously, "I...I understand." Then she realized, "She's my daughter. Why should I listen to you?"
She reached out to pull Li Yang: "You shameless little bitch, do you want to follow him to beg for food? Come back with me!"
Marrying into the Fu family would give her a few hundred yuan in betrothal gifts, but what would she get if she married Ji Huaizhi? I heard that even the place they lived in was leaky! Wouldn't that mean she had raised her daughter in vain?
Xu Yanping also stepped forward and advised, "Li Yang, just listen to your mother and go back with her. Look how angry she is!"
"Shut up!" Li Yang glared at Xu Yanping. "My family's affairs have nothing to do with you. Stop butting in!"
After she finishes dealing with these things, she will have to settle the accounts between them with Xu Yanping.
She hugged Ji Huaizhi's arm and said, "I am already Ji Huaizhi's person. I am happy even if I have to beg for food!"
After that, he said to Ji Huaizhi: "Let's go home."
Ji Huaizhi looked at the little girl who was about to follow him to beg for food. Her fair skin had turned a layer of pink because of her anger, which was very cute. He replied, "Okay, let's go home."
Feng Mei watched the two people leave. She wanted to stop them but didn't have the courage to do so. She could only stamp her feet in anxiety.
Xu Yanping, feeling ashamed after being scolded by Li Yang on the street, goaded Feng Mei, "Auntie Mei, are you just going to leave it alone?"
Feng Mei said angrily, "I want to take care of it too. How do you want me to do that?"
If Ji Huaizhi were to attack her, she would lose half her life!
Xu Yanping was choked by the rebuke, but she suppressed her displeasure and said, "Aunt Mei, I know you are angry, but you can't just ignore Li Yang.
Look at how well-behaved Li Yang is. She must have been deceived by Ji Huaizhi. Otherwise, how could she dare to do such a thing? In my opinion, we still have to find a way. Otherwise, if this matter gets out, it will not only affect Li Yang, but also your reputation, Uncle Li's reputation, and Yaozu's reputation."
Xu Yanping mentioned Lai Yaozu and immediately reminded Feng Mei.
Yes, if Li Yang really followed Ji Huaizhi, what would happen to her son? She couldn't let him go to jail!
As if she had made up her mind, she slapped her thigh and said, "I just don't believe it!"

The two of them had breakfast on the way back.
Li Yang was afraid of spending money and wanted to refuse, but Ji Huaizhi said, "You've been busy all morning, and you're not going to have a meal?"
After the reform and opening up, people's lives gradually became more affluent, and their consumption desires soared. The morning tea culture in Guangzhou flourished again. Xiguan-style breakfast shops were almost everywhere, and even the more upscale teahouses were often packed. Guangzhou's morning tea was also very rich, with dishes like crystal-clear rice noodle rolls smothered in sauce, richly tossed boat porridge, salted bone porridge, and pork offal porridge, as well as steamed buns, chicken feet, tripe, egg tarts... all kinds of delicious food. But these were all, and Li Yang never even managed to visit a teahouse in his previous life until his death.
Seeing Ji Huaizhi about to walk into a teahouse, Li Yang quickly pulled him back and pointed to a roadside breakfast shop across the street: "Let's go eat there."
Ji Huaizhi looked at the little girl's embarrassed face and laughed: "Are you starting to save money for me?"
The tips of the little girl's ears turned slightly red. She raised her eyes and glared at him: "Shouldn't that be right?"
Everyone knew that Ji Huaizhi was the poorest person in the entire alley. It was said that even the house he lived in was drafty. If the two of them went to a teahouse to eat, it would cost at least a few yuan. Her monthly salary was only a little over ninety yuan. How could she afford the expenses of two people if she didn't save money?
Thinking of this, Li Yang felt that her thoughts were completely wrong. Ji Huai had saved her in his previous life, and in this life he had done her such a big favor. She should give him whatever he wanted to spend, even if she couldn't afford it.
