Chapter 323 No Money
Juefeng's face was full of humiliation.
He just couldn't figure it out.
Why are the people in the village so curious and like to meddle in other people's affairs?
Not only were they watched whenever they went out, but if they walked a little further, someone would pull them back to the Ji family. Even if they wrote a letter and wanted someone to deliver it to them, they would be pulled aside and asked what was written on the letter, why they were sending it, who it was for, etc.
There is also a more direct way. After getting the letter, they open it directly to see what is written on it. If they don’t recognize the words, they will simply find someone in the village who can read and read it aloud together.
There are really no rules at all, it's complete bullshit!
Ji Changying looked at them with disdain: "Tsk, what a waste! Even the chances I gave you were useless!"
Seeing this look, these people were furious and wanted to rush up to fight her to the death. Jue Feng gritted his teeth and said, "A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated! You can kill me or chop me up as you please!"
Ji Changying stared at him and turned around twice: "Hey, hey, hey, how come you guys still have a backbone?"
“·····”
Ren Dongnan looked at the man who was about to faint from anger, and a trace of sympathy appeared on his face: "If they don't deal with it in a hurry, won't they have to irrigate it later?"
The implication is that they still need to keep working.
Ji Changying said with a smile: "There's no way I'll let you go. Why don't you just come to me and let me take you in? I can forgive you for what you did in the past. If you agree to be a long-term worker in my family in the future, I can guarantee your survival. How about that?"
Jue Feng looked at her fiercely: "Dream on!"
Ji Changying spread her hands and said, "It doesn't matter. I can kill you at any time. To me, you are just a group of lambs to be slaughtered."
Her smile looked evil no matter how you looked at it.
Juefeng and the others felt a sense of powerlessness in their hearts.
When she returned home, Ji Changying saw many people in the village bringing wild flowers with fresh soil to see Hu. After she lowered her head to examine them and confirmed that there was no problem, she took out ten coins and handed them to the visitor: "The flowers are well preserved. Here are ten coins for you."
"This is too common, nothing special, but it looks fresh. I'll give you three cents."
“This flower is nice…”
Everyone who took the money from Mrs. Hu left with a smile on their face, and when they saw Ji Changying coming back, they greeted her with a smile.
"Are you... buying flowers?"
Mrs. Hu smiled and nodded. "I'm just sitting around doing nothing anyway. The flowers at home have all been taken away by the shop, and the bare yard doesn't look good. Besides, this business isn't a one-time thing. If you want it to last, you need something to sell consistently. We have limited energy, so I'll let them come along. It'll save us time and energy, and they can make money too. Who in the village wouldn't be grateful for our kindness?"
A look of surprise flashed across Ji Changying's face. "You're amazing! Oh! I should hand the shop over to you. I'll tell my dad to let you run the shop!"
As expected of the person who has been in charge of the family for many years, Hu thinks of many things without waiting for anyone to say anything.
Mrs. Hu was amused and laughed. "What are you talking about! I have enough to worry about at home. I don't want to run around all day worrying about this and that. Just do whatever you want. I'll stay at home and make sure you don't have to worry about anything!"
Speaking of this, Mrs. Hu's smile faded a little: "What happened to your uncle and the others?"
Ji Changying's smile faded a little: "My father and uncle are both exhausted. They have lost two times less weight. They are very tired and can't eat well."
Mrs. Hu suddenly became anxious: "Did you give them the meat sauce?"
"I gave it to them, but my dad and the others didn't dare take it because the smell was too strong and they were worried that someone would find out when they ate it."
"What should we do? Can we use our connections to find a way to get them back? Or... or..."
Several ideas flashed through Hu's mind, but they were all rejected.
Seeing Mrs. Hu frantically scrambling around, Ji Changying didn't hide anything and quickly comforted her, "Don't worry! I've already thought of this. Let's make some dried meat and send it to my father and the others. It doesn't smell strong, it's easy to store, and it's also convenient to carry."
"Jerky, what kind of jerky? Bacon? Air-dried meat?"
Mrs. Hu's eyes lit up and she thought this was a good idea.
"I ordered a pig to be brought back tomorrow, and I'll buy some beef. Then we'll follow..."
After Ji Changying described the taste and texture of beef jerky and pork jerky, Mrs. Hu immediately started to think about it.
The next day, Ji Changying took out the piglet in the space that had long been eaten into a fat pig and killed it. He then wandered around the morning market for a long time and finally bought a hundred pounds of raw beef to take home with great effort.
It took two whole days of working in the yard to finally finish making the beef jerky and pork jerky.
Ren Dongnan ate and commented: "Not bad, the sweetness and saltiness are just right this time."
Mrs. Hu breathed a sigh of relief, and deftly cut the dried meat into finger-length pieces according to Ji Changying's instructions.
"When my dad and the others are hungry, they can just put a piece in their mouths and chew it slowly. It won't be easy to be discovered." Looking at the final product, Ji Changying was also very satisfied.
After thinking about it, she brought some with her when she went to Mr. Huang to buy the medicine for wounds.
Unexpectedly, the moment he opened his mouth, Old Huang was furious: "Do you think this old man's golden wound medicine is a weed on the roadside and you can have as much as you want? I gave you so much last time and it's gone so quickly? You guys treat it as food? Even a glutton can't eat as much as you do!"
Ji Changying shamelessly handed over the dried meat in her hand: "Grandpa Huang, I know your medicine is effective, so I came here with money in my hands to buy it. You also know how stingy I am, but I am willing to spend money on you! I admire your craftsmanship! This is a new snack I made at home, please try it."
Huang Lao took the thing and his expression turned from gloomy to bright. "You are such a sweet girl. Calling me Grandpa Huang makes me feel much better. If you can call me like this in the future, ahem, it's not impossible for me to give you a few more bottles..."
"Grandpa Huang! Grandpa Huang! Grandpa Huang!"
Ji Changying had no psychological barriers at all and shouted several times decisively. Hearing this, Old Huang smiled and waved his hand, giving her ten bottles of medicine.
Ji Changying's eyes lit up, and she ran with the medicine in her arms in surprise, turning her head and shouting, "Thank you, Grandpa Huang!"
The smile on Mr. Huang's face slowly disappeared until he could no longer see her, but he was still very happy in his heart.
Only when he came to his senses did he scream: "I didn't give you the money——"
The moon is dark and the wind is strong.
Ji Changying knocked the challenger unconscious with one punch and looked at Ren Dongnan: "Is this the last one?"
Ren Dongnan stepped forward and searched the man's body thoroughly, feeling for the silver he had obtained: "Starting tomorrow, it will be gone."
"You've been working for so long, at least give me some!"
Ji Changying reached out to take it, but Ren Dongnan dodged and moved two meters away from her.
