Ji Fengshou took a deep breath and said, "Can your friend get this thing? How much does it cost? Where did you get the money?"
These things are all priced by the pound, and he couldn't imagine how much this bag would cost.
Ji Changying was really afraid that his father would get angry again.
She quickly tried to comfort him, "It's free! The thing is, my friend has always wanted to expand his business, but he never found the opportunity. So, knowing we have plenty of land here that's suitable for growing these things, he gave me this bag of seeds for free."
Seeing Ji Fengshou excitedly about to speak, Ji Changying quickly interrupted him: "But! If the crops are successful and produce seeds, all of them must be returned to him. And we can only sell him the cumin we grow. If we fail, I have to pay for it."
Ji Fengshou frowned: "Isn't he worried that we won't lose money if we sell the things?"
"So, I'm your daughter, a person of noble character. I can also grow things. Otherwise, why would he choose me instead of someone else? It's because he knows I can grow things. After all, I even grew potatoes, right?"
Ji Changying boasted about herself, and Ji Feng's frown gradually relaxed.
He's not exaggerating, his daughter got to know a lot of plants while on the road to exile and later discovered potatoes, and she did it all by herself. No one else has ever heard of it!
"That's all I've said, but I'm still a little worried since I haven't met your friend. There's no rush for this thing anyway, so let's not plant it for now. Let me meet him when I'm free, so you don't end up being sold off and having to count the money for them!"
Ji Fengshou was still a little worried, so he solemnly put the half bag of cumin seeds in his room and locked it up.
He looked as if he was afraid that it would be stolen.
"It's ok, let's go see our parents!"
Zhou was a little impatient. If her daughter and husband had not said they wanted to go together, she would have run away long ago.
The three of them locked the door and walked along the village road towards the Zhou family's yard.
All of the Zhou family’s money was robbed on the way.
In the end, he had no choice but to go up the mountain and become a bandit. He took the people from the shelter down the mountain and robbed things twice.
I finally had some money in my hands, and as a result, I received a letter from Ji Changying.
They originally wanted to come over with some money to visit Zhou and her family, and help them if they were having a hard time. However, they didn't expect that Zhou was living better than they imagined.
On the contrary, they are now living worse than the Ji family.
The Zhou family had a large family and limited money, so they could only buy a large, dilapidated courtyard.
There was no renovation, so we just cleaned it up briefly and moved in.
"Mom! Open the door!"
Zhou slammed the door of the Zhou family's house so hard that it made a loud bang, and the yellow mud next to it fell down.
Ji Fengshou's eyelids twitched wildly, and he quickly stepped forward to stop her: "Yue Niang, this door can't withstand your strength, let me do it!"
"Replace it if it's broken! I don't think this door is any good."
Zhou shook the wooden door in disgust, and more yellow soil fell.
Zhou Liu came out sweating profusely, holding a shovel: "Here I come!"
When she opened the door and saw the Zhou family of three, Mrs. Zhou Liu's smile grew even wider. "Oh my! Why didn't you tell me you were coming over? I'll ask your sister-in-law to cook two more dishes!"
"Just come when you want! Mom, I'm hungry!"
As soon as Zhou entered the door, she asked for something to eat with confidence.
Mrs. Zhou Liu angrily tapped her forehead with a shovel and said, "All you do is eat, eat, eat. Your stomach is like a bottomless pit. Come inside first, I'll bring you food!"
Zhou nodded repeatedly and walked to the main room with a swagger.
Ji Changying felt relaxed too when she saw how comfortable Zhou was at her grandmother's house.
Taking a quick glance at the Zhou family's yard, I found that the yard surrounded by mud walls was kept clean, and the farm tools in the yard were neatly placed aside.
There were also half-woven hand-woven baskets all in the corner.
The men in the family are not at home at the moment, only a few aunts and grandmother are at home.
Seeing the family of three coming back, several aunts in the kitchen hurried out to greet them.
Mrs. Zhou Liu took out some money and gave it to her aunt, Mrs. Ma: "Go, buy two more pounds of meat."
He then told his second son's wife to call the men in the family back for dinner, and then he carefully took out the lard residue that was treasured next to the oil tank and put it in a bowl.
The third and fourth daughters-in-law looked at each other with envy. Mrs. Zhou Liu hardened her heart and took out two pieces of rice and stuffed them into their mouths respectively. "Don't accuse me of being partial. If it weren't for Yue Niang, you and your children would still be in the mountains!"
The two narrowed their eyes because of the fragrance, and when they heard this, they quickly waved their hands: "No, no, no, I know that mother loves my sister, but she also doesn't treat me unfairly. We are all grateful to my sister for this!"
Mrs. Zhou Liu snorted and took out two more pieces and put them aside. "It's good that you know! I gave birth to a child, so of course I feel sorry for him. If you don't agree, go find your own mother! These two pieces are for the eldest and second son's families. You are not allowed to steal them!"
After saying this, she shook her head proudly and carried the lard residue into the main room.
Ji Changying laughed so hard that she started laughing. This old lady was quite interesting.
"Come on, come on! I just made it yesterday, it smells so good!" Mrs. Zhou Liu smiled and invited the family of three to eat quickly.
Ji Changying was just about to say that she was not hungry when a large piece of food was stuffed into her mouth.
Mrs. Zhou Liu looked at her lovingly and said, "This is a rare and good thing. If you don't eat it, you won't even get a scrap of it when your cousins come back."
Zhou was much less polite and stuffed a piece of food into Zhou Liu's mouth while eating.
This subconscious action created several more wrinkles at the corners of Zhou Liu's beautiful eyes.
"Mom, why did I hear recently that I'm not your biological child? So am I really your biological child?"
Zhou's mouth was not idle while eating, and she asked directly.
Mrs. Zhou Liu had just been happily chewing the lard crumbs her daughter had stuffed into her mouth. When she heard this, she was so shocked that she almost lost her breath and the lard crumbs almost got stuck in her throat: "Ahem!!!"
Mrs. Zhou patted her back anxiously: "You're so old, how can you still choke while eating?"
Ji Fengshou had been observing quietly, and his heart skipped a beat when he saw his mother-in-law's reaction.
Ji Changying sighed in his heart, this was almost certain.
Zhou Liu ignored everything else and took Zhou's hand with a serious face: "Who told you that?"
Ji Fengshou had a bad feeling in his heart.
Sure enough, before he could even open his mouth, Zhou pointed her finger at him: "My husband said so!"
Zhou Liu looked at Ji Fengshou with murderous eyes in an instant.
He shook his head frantically, then straightened his chest with confidence and pointed his finger: "It was Aying who told me that, not me!"
The expression on Ji Changying's face was blank for a moment.
Is this my biological mother and father?
"Well, I..." Ji Changying looked at Zhou Liu who was waiting for her to explain, and simply went for it.
"It was Doctor Huang who said that! He said my mother looks 80% similar to his junior sister! Also, a few days ago, a few men in black sneaked into my house and searched through things. It might be related to my mother's life experience."
