Chapter 207 Ji Hongxun and his family are here
"So, I should thank the team?" Shen Ruoqing laughed a little out of anger. No wonder Fourth Brother didn't dare to look at him just now. It turned out that these people had such a plan.
"Just remember the good things the team did for you. One hundred yuan is not a small amount. You can help your second and third brothers find new wives."
"I won't sell it." Shen Ruoqing said.
"What?" Deputy Captain Qi suspected that he had heard it wrongly.
"I said I won't sell the recipe anymore." Shen Ruoqing said, "I'm already giving you a thousand yuan for the recipe out of consideration. If my fourth brother wasn't the factory director, I wouldn't have even brought this up. Since the factory has no sincerity in buying my recipe, I won't sell it."
"Not selling it anymore? Ruoqing girl, how could you not sell it?" Deputy Captain Qi was anxious. He didn't expect Shen Ruoqing would just not sell it.
"This is my stuff. I can sell it if I want to, and not if I don't want to. My price is already very cheap. Since the factory is in trouble, don't buy it." Shen Ruoqing's attitude was very firm.
"It's time to eat, it's time to eat."
Old Mrs. Ji came out with two plates of food, "Deputy Captain Qi, it's time for dinner, why don't you eat at our house?"
It was already time for dinner, and since he was the deputy captain of the brigade, Mrs. Ji felt embarrassed to chase him away.
"Then eat something." Deputy Captain Qi originally wanted to eat for free.
But when he looked at the dishes, fried beans and fried cabbage, why were they all vegetarian?
After all the dishes were served, Deputy Captain Qi saw a stir-fried pig intestine and the staple food was a multi-grain steamed bun.
The Shen family only eats these? It's not better than what they eat. It seems that rumors can't be fully believed. Yes, the Shen family spent so much money on building the house, where would they have extra money to buy meat? Even if they had money to buy meat, they couldn't get meat tickets, so they could only eat pig offal.
"Aunt Shen, you think Ruoqing is too unreasonable. The factory offered her a hundred yuan and she wouldn't sell her prescription. If the factory makes money, it will benefit all of us." Seeing that Shen Ruoqing wasn't making sense, Deputy Captain Qi turned his attention to Old Lady Ji.
When Old Mrs. Ji heard Deputy Captain Qi criticizing her good boy, she put down her bowl and chopsticks.
"Deputy Captain Qi, what do you mean by that? Everyone in the village knows that my little darling is the most sensible and considerate. When has she ever acted up? And you want to buy our recipe for just 100 yuan? Our brigade food factory has made so much money, all thanks to the bacon recipe my little darling brought out before. If it weren't for the good recipe, would there be so many orders? To me, my little darling is just too kind-hearted. She gave away the bacon recipe for nothing. She should have asked you for more money."
Deputy Captain Qi choked and was about to say something, but Old Lady Ji said, "It looks like Deputy Captain Qi is full. Shen Xue, quickly collect the dishes and wash them."
Before Deputy Captain Qi could say anything, the bowl and chopsticks in his hand were taken away by Shen Xue.
He hadn't even taken two bites yet! Although the dishes weren't as good as he had imagined, Han's cooking skills were pretty good. The fried large intestines were really tasty.
"Deputy Captain Qi, it's getting late. Should we not see you off?"
How could Vice Captain Qi stay? He had no choice but to leave.
After Deputy Captain Qi left, Old Lady Ji spat on the ground: "Bah, what kind of person is this? He eats my family's food and dares to make up stories about my sweet baby! He wants to buy my secret recipe for just 100 yuan, how could he not want to die? Sweet baby, we won't sell it to you!"
Shen Ruoqing also nodded: "Listen to mom, we won't sell it."
Shen Ruoqing also figured it out. Her endless efforts would only make others take it for granted. She helped build the factory and the pig farm and found sales, which was good enough. She would not take the initiative to help with these things in the future.
"Old lady, go cook some more dumplings. These dishes are not tasty." Old Mrs. Ji was used to eating fine grains. She could eat these multi-grain steamed buns before. Why did she feel a little bit unable to swallow them now? "Okay, Mom."
The weather is getting colder.
Old Mrs. Ji bought some new wool and prepared to knit some new sweaters for Shen Ruoqing. The sweaters knitted with brand new wool were close fitting and warm to wear.
Su Jieru was also knitting, and she was knitting for Shen Xiangbei.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were knitting and chatting when there was a knock on the door.
"Sister, are you home? I brought Jianjun to see you!"
It turned out that Ji Hongxun and his wife came with their little son Ji Jianjun, carrying a bag of eggs.
"Jianjun is here." After several people came in, Old Mrs. Ji asked Su Jieru to pour water.
"I came to visit my elder sister-in-law. Jianjun hasn't seen her for a long time. He was still talking about her a few days ago. So I brought some eggs to nourish the little ones at home."
"You're welcome."
Old Mrs. Ji was puzzled. Why did she bring Ji Jianjun to her house during such a special occasion? Su Jieru quickly brought hot water with sugar in it.
"Jianjun has a girlfriend this year, right?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Yes, they are planning to get married next year!" Feng smiled when she mentioned her son's marriage.
"Oh, that's great. Where are you from, girl?" Su Jieru asked.
"She is a girl from Xujia Village, the granddaughter of the village chief, and her name is Xu Yufen." It can be seen that Mrs. Feng is very satisfied with her son's partner this time.
"Xu Yufen, has the date been set?" asked Old Mrs. Ji.
"The date hasn't been set yet." Feng glanced at her husband who was hesitant and didn't dare to speak, and pushed him again.
"Hongxun, is there something going on with your visit this time?" Old Lady Ji asked. She knew that if there was nothing going on, Ji Hongxun and his family would not come to visit. Just now, Ji Jianjun and Xu Yufen were mentioned. Did something happen to them? "Jianjun and Yufen are not getting along well?"
"Sister, I..." Ji Hongxun glanced at his son and finally spoke: "Jianjun and Yufen are getting along pretty well, but if they want to get married, Yufen's family has put forward a condition."
"What conditions?"
"Yufen's family needs a job."
Feng looked up and observed her elder sister-in-law's expression: "Eldest sister, you know, Jianjun is already in his twenties, and the marriage can't be delayed any longer. It's not easy for Jianjun to find someone he likes..."
Old Lady Ji looked at her and said, "Can you get this job just by saying so? Although my family's Xiangbei is the factory director, this factory doesn't belong to him alone, but to the collective. When so many people from my family were arranged to work in the factory, there were already many voices of dissatisfaction in the brigade. Before, Deputy Captain Qi wanted to arrange for his relatives to come in, but he failed. There are so many eyes watching us! Now the factory has just recruited a wave of people some time ago. If the Xu family wants to work, they should take the exam based on their own abilities."
"Isn't Xiangbei the factory director now? Isn't it just a word from him that determines the job quota? Sister, I don't blame you for what happened before, but this time you have to help Jianjun no matter what." Feng said.
Ji Jianjun felt embarrassed but looked at Old Lady Ji with hope and called her "Aunt".
