Chapter 121 – Don’t Disregard Your Third Sister-In-Law’s Thoughts

At noon the next day, Ji Jianwen and Yun Lili arrived. Ji Yunyun also came back with them.

Ji Yunyun was in college now and lived in the college town. She was still close to Yun Lili, and she didn’t come back during the holidays.

During summer vacation this year, the family was very busy. They didn’t hear her call back to ask about them. But Ji Jianwen did. He had opened a cram school with Yun Lili, and was very busy.

Ji Jianyun and Su Danhong didn’t think too much of it because they had a business to run, and they could not evade their responsibility. Ji Jianwen still had a mortgage to repay, and there was still several hundred yuan left to pay. For Ji Jianyun and Su Danhong, it didn’t take long to earn an amount equivalent to the loan. But for ordinary working class people, this was definitely a large sum of money.

There was nothing much to say about this couple who was busy making money.

Yun Lili was also a person who cared about reputation. During summer vacation, she sent back a lot of clothes for Yan’er and two articles of clothing for Renren.

She also knew about what Mother Ji had told her. Her daughter was being raised in her third uncle’s house.

Su Danhong didn’t care much about the clothes she sent back, but it was related to a question of her attitude and respect.

And naturally the clothes were definitely not as good as what she bought for Yan’er.

Yun Lili and Ji Jianwen had no time for a break to go back, but Ji Yunyun simply disliked Su Danhong and didn’t want to come back to help. She said that she had found a part-time job in the college town and had no time to go back.

Su Danhong didn’t mind. Ji Yunyun could come back if she wanted to come back. If she didn’t, then she didn’t have to come back. It’s her business and she wasn’t going to stop her.

She was really fine if Ji Yunyun didn’t come back. She didn’t like seeing Ji Yunyun’s haughtiness, even if she was her sister-in-law.

Su Danhong also tried to build a better relationship with her, but when Ji Yunyun saw her show kindness, she thought she was being bullied. In that case, it was unnecessary to be kind.

Su Danhong also had the money to hire whoever she wanted to work on the farm and didn’t need to hire just family members. People in the village were fighting over these positions.

This time when the three of them came back, Mother Ji went back to cook for them. She did not continue to eat on the mountain. Father Ji still ate with Su Danhong and Ji Jianyun. He was now used to the food from Lao San’s family. When he ate the food cooked by Mother Ji, he couldn’t hold it down anymore.

Mother Ji didn’t like how he was suffering from being spoiled, but it was only talk from her.

Although Mother Ji went back to Lao Ji’s house for dinner, she didn’t have to eat at home. This year, she was angry with her youngest daughter, so she planned on teaching her a good lesson.

In the past, Mother Ji was very reluctant to let her cook and she also let her sleep in late in the morning. She didn’t ask her to get up for lunch until the food was ready. It was because of that she was very unhappy and had complaints about it.

But early the next morning a day after their return, Mother Ji went to Ji Yunyun’s door and insisted on having her cook.

Ji Yunyun was angry with her, and Mother Ji was even more angry. She pinched her several times. Ji Yunyun screamed and hid, and finally went to make breakfast with tears in her eyes.

“Granny, I’m going to find my parents.” Yan’er came to hug her leg, and she was about to cry.

Mother Ji asked, “Aren’t your parents in the house?”

“My parents are over there,” Yan’er cried. Her brother was over there, too. She wanted to go over there. ꜱᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴛʜᴇ ᴛʀᴀɴꜱʟᴀᴛᴏʀ ᴀɴᴅ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴏɴ ꜰᴏxᴀʜᴏʟɪᴄ.ᴄᴏᴍ

Mother Ji was amused. When she saw Lao Si’s wife come out, she said, “Lili, take her back and calm her down.”

“Mother, what’s going on? My daughter stayed at third brother-in-law’s house, but why is my daughter calling third brother-in-law and third sister-in-law her parents?” Yun Lili was annoyed by her daughter the entire night last night. She was also angry at this moment and thought that third sister-in-law had deliberately done this.

As soon as Mother Ji heard this, she understood what was going on. She didn’t take it seriously when the old man warned her. And now she felt that the old man was right.

Mother Ji was completely blunt and she criticized her, “You think you’re so good. You can take care of yourself, but you hold a grudge against Lao San’s wife when she took care of your daughter. You come back and you resent her. So what if Yan’er calls them her parents? Aren’t kids like that? She’ll call whoever takes care of her her parents. Look at Yan’er, she grew up looking better than when she was with you. Danhong makes stew for her in the morning and feeds her a big apple after lunch. She raised your daughter to be pretty and fat and you’re not satisfied?”

Yun Lili didn’t think she would be criticized like this by her mother-in-law after complaining.

Ji Jianwen heard it and quickly said, “Mother, that’s not the case. We know that the third sister-in-law has been good to Yan’er.”

That’s for sure. Look at how fashionable his daughter was. The clothes on her were not the ones bought by Lili. It must have been bought by third sister-in-law. She looked the same as those little girls in the city. Besides, she was very polite and not mean and that should be acknowledged.

Moreover, Ji Jianwen thought it was funny that Yan’er called his third brother and third sister-in-law her parents. He didn’t mind, and he had the same thoughts as his mother. This also strengthened the argument that third sister-in-law really took good care of Yan’er.

“If you know, then that’s good. Don’t disregard your third sister-in-law’s thoughts. This year, your third sister-in-law’s put in a lot of effort to raise Yan’er and treat her as her own daughter. In fact, your third sister-in-law has been kind to her nephew and nieces, but she let Yan’er be raised at her place. She stayed over a lot and what food was not eaten by Yan’er?” Mother Ji’s tone to her son was much better.

“Yes, yes, I know, I know. I’ll take Yan’er to third brother later,” Ji Jianwen immediately replied.

Mother Ji glanced at Yun Lili, and then said to Yan’er, “Be good. Look, these are your parents, and over there is your third uncle and third aunt.”

Yan’er had long forgotten her parents. Children were forgetful. However, it was true that Yan’er was their child and blood ran deeper between them. Therefore, Yan’er couldn’t say that she wanted to reject them, but she always thought about the past.

Yun Lili felt a little uncomfortable. Her daughter had become someone else’s.

When she went to help Ji Yunyun cook, she wondered, “What do you think about this? If we leave Yan’er here again, can she still recognize me as her mother?”

“I think it’s better for you to take Yan’er to Jiangshui City. Third sister-in-law is jealous of you since she doesn’t have a daughter. If Yan’er keeps calling her mom and she raises her like this, she’ll become like her. You don’t know how powerful she is in winning people’s hearts. Look at my mother, she doesn’t even want me now and I’m her biological daughter. She’s just been venting her anger on me and forgot about how angry I was with that woman at the beginning of the year!” Ji Yunyun gritted her teeth and replied.

Yun Lili had a complicated expression on her face. Although she did not want her daughter to become someone else’s daughter, she was not free after all. This year, she saved on paying a nanny. During the summer, she opened a cram school with Jianwen and also earned a lot. If she was raising her child, then she could not save as much money.

After a year, there were only a little more than two hundred left on their mortgage. Once it was repaid, she and Jianwen still had to pay back her maternal family. At the beginning, her parents borrowed 500 from them, and there was also her husband’s family… She said there was no need to pay them back. It was already paid back through the orchard, but Jianwen said that they needed to.

How much debt did they have all together? She wanted to raise her daughter, but she was not foolish about it.
