Rebirth to the Eighties to Get Rich

Su Danhong’s pregnancy was beginning to show now. She was pregnant in June, and now it is almost the end of September. It had been four months.

She lost her appetite at the beginning, but those negative side effects came to pass. Her appetite became bigger and she ate so much that she almost caught up with Ji Jianyun's appetite as a big man. She tried to restrain herself and didn’t let herself eat an extreme amount.

But Ji Jianyun said to her, “Eat whatever you want, but don't be hungry. You are eating for two people now. Isn't it normal to eat more?”

He was overjoyed to see that his wife ate everything and had a good appetite. He asked his mother to boil a lot of chestnuts for his wife to eat. Roasted chestnuts were tastier, but boiled were not bad. Roasting took more effort and they were not free now. Father Ji was preparing a rack for drying persimmons, and Mother Ji collected eggs every day. Although they had Xu Aidang and Ji Hongjun, she would help with some work. In any case, it was not heavy work.

Ji Jianyun collected honey. There was a lot of honey now, and most of it was stored in the beehive. There could be hundreds of jin of honey hoarded from the bees in the mountain during the flowering period in recent months.

All kinds of nectar were mixed together, and none specifically separated. The taste was very pure and mellow.

Ji Jianyun went to order a batch of two-jin jars. When he came back, he began to fill them with honey. The honey was excellent honey. He planned to take them to the university town to sell them after a while. He had figured out that things would sell out only if they went to the university town. Even if they went to Jiangshui City, the people there could not afford the price.

And he was full of ambition! The next time he went to the college town, he would drive his truck back!

He would not be able to fill so much honey alone. Mother Ji came to help after she was done with other things. The hundreds of jin of honey made them busy for a few days.

After filling the honey, he gave two bottles to Su Jindang, two bottles to Mother Su, and two bottles for himself. Father Ji and Mother Ji also kept a few bottles. He packed the rest in a box, and waited to take them to the college town.

After all this, he roasted chestnuts for his wife that could eat anything. He was going to roast sugar chestnuts, but Su Danhong had read a medical book that said she should not eat too many sweet things when she was pregnant. Thus, he just roasted chestnuts.

But even if it was roasted chestnuts, it smelled good.

Hou Wazi Xiaozhen, and Xiaoyu came over. Su Danhong was not stingy, so she gave them a big handful and let them eat together.

There were a lot of chestnuts left for the family, at least hundreds of jin. Well, Ji Jianyun kept a lot of chestnuts and sold the rest, because he knew she likes to eat them.

It was satisfying for her to have it as a snack.

Xiao Renren had been learning to crawl recently. During this month, he had made great progress and crawled fast. If they were not careful, he would crawl to Da Hei’s home to play with Da Hei.

Although Da Hei was very big and powerful, he was very intelligent. He seemed to have realized that Su Danhong was pregnant now, so he watched very closely. When Su Danhong came to the backyard, he had to follow since he wasn’t on a leash.

Ji Jianyun was so grateful that he patted his dog's head and made him a big bone to eat.

Not only did he take care of Su Danhong, but also to Xiao Renren, the little master of the family. Perhaps it was his sense of smell, but Da Hei treated Yan’er differently from Xiao Renren. Yan’er was also a little afraid of him. Although she didn’t cry when she saw him, she didn’t like to play with him. For Xiao Renren though, seeing Da Hei was seeing someone familiar.

Xiao Renren was fine before, but now he could crawl by himself and knew the way. Da Hei would let him come over by himself.

Da Hei was also like an elder. He took good care of him. Even if he pulled Da Hei’s fur, he did not complain.

Su Danhong could not bear to watch it happen so many times. She opened the boy’s hand and lightly patted him to teach him a lesson. She told him that he could not grab the fur since it would hurt Da Hei.

Xiao Renren’s eyes widened at her. Behind his ignorant eyes, he thought his mother was playing with him. Thus, he grinned and gave an “Ah ah”. After being patted, he went back to playing with her.

Su Danhong: “…”

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Renren was now ten months old, and in another two months, it would be his birthday. They used the lunar calendar for his birthday. It was now the eighth month in the lunar calendar. In seven or eight days, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15.

That day, Lao Qin called the village committee to find Ji Jianyun. Ji Jianyun went to answer it. When he came back, he said, “Lao Qin asked me if I wanted to go to the college town again. There is a big celebration for the Mid-Autumn Festival in the college town. He asked if I wanted to sell eggs. He said that it will be easy to sell.”

Su Danhong questioned, “What do you think?” ꜱᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴛʜᴇ ᴛʀᴀɴꜱʟᴀᴛᴏʀ ᴀɴᴅ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴏɴ ꜰᴏxᴀʜᴏʟɪᴄ.ᴄᴏᴍ

“I think it's doable. I'll make a trip and sell eggs first and take advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival,” Ji Jianyun replied.

“Okay, then go. You don't have to worry about us at home,” Su Danhong said. She was already ready to make moon cakes. Last year, she didn't do it and went into town to buy some. But it was very expensive, and the taste was mediocre. This year, she planned to make it herself.

Ji Jianyun went to work. There was still a week to go before the Mid-Autumn Festival. With the speed that the hens laid eggs, they could save a lot these days.

As soon as Mother Ji heard that he was going to get some eggs to sell in the college town, she worked more than necessary. She added a lot of meat for the hens. She asked Ji Jianyun to go fish some fish and shrimp to come back. He could keep some for Danhong to eat, and what she couldn't eat, they could chop it up, cook it, and feed it to the hens.

Three days later, the speed at which the hens laid eggs had significantly accelerated.

After Su Jindang came to transport the eggs to the town to sell, there were more than half a basket left. In a few days, they saved three or four baskets of eggs. However, they could not just sell eggs, so Ji Jianyun prepared more than 20 chickens to sell, and brought a lot of honey. They also had sheeps and slaughtered the sheeps on on the mountain. It was not that many, only three. They went to a place in town to buy ice and bought a lot. Then, they drove to the college town.

If they drove from there to the college town, it would take three hours. Lao Qin drove over at around four o'clock in the morning, and he came in a hurry. He came for breakfast and set out with Ji Jianyun. They would arrive at the college town at around six or seven o'clock, which was the opening time for the morning market.

With the large truck, the people in this market are familiar with Ji Jianyun and Lao Qin. The fruits from last time were really impressive and sold really well. They were not expensive, and they were delicious. After eating their fruit and then eating other people's fruit, it just didn’t have the same taste. It was just like eating high quality apples and then eating those sour and astringent ones. It just could not compare!
