Chapter 12 The Ji Family Child Gets His Face Stepped On and Slapped
As He Ruhua watched them leave the Shuangdai store, she muttered, "So stingy... The children never eat anything good. They just won't buy them anything to eat. Grandma Ji is so old, and they don't buy her anything."
She thought to herself that Wang Yuqing would definitely not treat the child and Grandma Ji well, and that she would probably be kicked out by Brother Ning in a few days.
Thinking about it this way, she felt much better. "We'll see!"
However, she was also puzzled as to why the woman's parents didn't accompany her on her first visit.
Chen E looked at the things in Wang Yuqing's hands: "A few days ago, Ji Daming borrowed a pencil from my little brat. He loves to study, and his handwriting is quite nice. It's perfect that you bought him a pencil."
Wang Yuqing said with a smile, "I really can't afford malted milk powder. You saw it yourself. When I left with you, my mother searched me. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I only had one yuan in my pocket. Buying candy doesn't have much nutrition and it's gone after eating. Buying pens is different. I thought that the children are all of school age and definitely can't do without these things. In the future, they will need these to get into university and make a name for themselves."
"And these soy sauces, vinegars, and MSG, are used for cooking and stir-frying. Food is the most important thing for people. How can we be healthy and work if we don't eat our fill?"
Chen E exclaimed, "Comrade Yuqing is so thoughtful, she thinks far ahead, and she knows how to manage a household, unlike my daughter-in-law..."
Mentioning her daughter-in-law instantly dampened her spirits: "Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk about her and make you laugh."
Wang Yuqing said sweetly, "Aunt Chen, I haven't had much contact with you, but along the way I've found you to be warm, straightforward, and easy to get along with."
Chen E was overjoyed to hear this, and she grinned, "That's right, I'm very easy to get along with. You could tell we've only known each other for a few hours, but my husband at home couldn't tell... sigh..."
Finally, she also waived the eight-yuan red envelope that she had agreed upon with Grandma Ji the day before yesterday for the matchmaker's gift, but still gave cigarettes, cakes, and candy as usual, otherwise the neighbors would laugh at the Ji family for being stingy.
Wang Yuqing thinks that being sweet-talking has its advantages.
Although Chen E did nothing in this matter and did not act as a matchmaker, she went home with Ji Xuening on her own. However, in this era, marriage was not possible without a matchmaker. Even if it was a free love relationship, a matchmaker was still required. Therefore, even if she did nothing, she could still receive the gifts and red envelopes that were due.
Ji Xuening walked ahead, listening silently to Wang Yuqing's words, feeling somewhat surprised. He had never met Wang Yuqing before, but he knew from his grandfather that Wang Yuqing was hardworking, kind, honest and simple.
Having met her today, I haven't yet seen her diligence and kindness, nor her honesty and simplicity. She's outspoken, eloquent, and knows how to be clever, but she always has a point.
Ji Xuening thought to himself that no matter what kind of person she was, as long as she was good to his grandmother and children, he didn't care. He just wanted to live together.
After walking for another ten minutes or so, we reached Niushiwan Production Team.
On the way, Wang Yuqing felt a little awkward hearing her call her "Comrade Yuqing" repeatedly, so he told her to just call him Yuqing. Chen E agreed, and the next second, she asked with a smile, "Ji Laosi's wife, I didn't expect you to be so sharp-tongued. This is the first time I've seen a young woman who can curse so well."
There are also some feisty girls in the team, but girls are thin-skinned and care about their reputation, so they can't say anything too nasty. Wang Yuqing even insulted He Ruhua's mother.
Wang Yuqing: "..."
This fourth son's wife is not as good as Comrade Yuqing. Oh well, let her call me whatever she wants.
Wang Yuqing recalled her past life, in which she was timid and submissive, often bullied by her colleagues and scolded by her boss, but she endured it for the sake of her salary; after all, making money meant having to be subservient to others.
Now that she's been reborn, she no longer wants to be so repressed. Besides, the original owner suffered enough grievances. From now on, she'll provoke anyone who provokes her, and she'll curse anyone who insults her. She won't suffer any emotional loss. Going crazy makes people happy!
Wang Yuqing pretended to be embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry you had to see this. I have a bad temper."
Chen E suddenly patted her on the shoulder and grinned: "What are you laughing at? A person should have a temper. If you're too timid, you'll get bullied. Besides, women with strong tempers are simple-minded and don't play tricks."
Wang Yuqing suddenly felt that she had found a like-minded person, who even taught her many new social swear words. Chen E could be described as 'devoted to learning'.
The tall and burly Comrade Ji Xuening walked in front, occasionally glaring and frowning, especially when he heard Wang Yuqing say: "You green tea bitch, saintly bitch, scheming bitch, lotus bitch."
Wang Yuqing was still tirelessly teaching Chen E how to swear when she ran into Ji Xiaoming and Ji Meimei, who had come to wait for Ji Xuening to come home.
Ji Xiaoming was being pinned to the ground by several boys. A bald boy stepped on his face and cursed, "You don't have a mother, you're a pathetic wretch, waaaah, so pitiful..."
The two girls beside her giggled, while the short and thin Ji Meimei wailed loudly, mumbling incoherently, "Don't... hit my second brother... boohoo... don't hit him..."
Chen E looked ahead and said, "These brats are bullying your child again."
Wang Yuqing recognized the bald boy who was stepping on Ji Xiaoming's face. She remembered him; his name was Cao Hao, the youngest son of Lin Xuemei's cousin Lin Meili, and he was thirteen years old, the same age as her.
Lin Meili brought him to the Wang family to visit relatives. Lin Meili and Lin Xuemei are similar types of people, but Lin Meili is not as smart as Lin Xuemei. She also treated the original owner of the body like a servant.
Cao Hao was spoiled rotten by her.
Ji Xuening stepped forward and scared the boys away. Cao Hao, bold and arrogant, glanced at Ji Xuening with his nose in the air and continued to stomp on Ji Xiaoming's face.
Without the other boys' restraint, Ji Xiaoming quickly flipped over, grabbed Cao Hao's leg, and threw him to the ground. He then nimbly straddled Cao Hao and began punching him. Despite his young age, his face was filled with anger and long-suppressed hatred.
Ji Xuening reached out to pull him away, but Ji Xiaoming, being strong-willed, insisted on sitting on her.
Ji Xuening tried to pull them apart, but Wang Yuqing ran up and pulled him away, saying, "It's normal for kids to fight. We adults shouldn't interfere."
He was stunned for a moment. At that moment, four-year-old Ji Meimei ran over crying and hugged Ji Xuening's leg. Ji Xuening picked her up with heartache and wiped away her tears.
Soon, Cao Hao, being older and stronger, pushed Ji Xiaoming down after taking a few punches and then sat on him again.
Wang Yuqing hurriedly went up, pulled Cao Hao up, pushed him aside, and stood between the two: "Stop fighting, they're just kids, arguing is fine, why resort to violence?"
Ji Xuening: "..."
Chen E was stunned for a moment, then scolded, "Cao Hao, why did you hit Xiao Ming again? And you even stomped on him. You're such a ruthless kid, always acting like a thug."
Cao Hao glared at Chen E: "My grandma and my mom didn't say anything to me, so why are you saying anything to me?"
