Rebirth to the Eighties to Get Rich

Chapter 177 – Should Not Marry With an Embarrassing Dowry

Yun Lili came back with a lot of test papers and asked Ji Yunyun to help. Of course, Ji Yunyun could help with the test papers of primary school students.

They had a good relationship with each other. Yun Lili said, “Yunyun, just now you were walking around downstairs in a daze. Were you thinking of someone?”

When her mother-in-law called to say something, Jianwen would not hide it from her.

“Thinking of someone? I was thinking of how out of all of my sisters-in-law, fourth sister-in-law has the best foresight,” Ji Yunyun said.

Yun Lili smiled when she heard that. “Why do you say that?”

It was obvious that Ji Yunyun had a strong desire to complain.

“Isn’t it obvious, fourth sister-in-law? Look at eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law. They are always being more petty than the other. During the New Years celebration, they caused a fight about bringing food over. Before fourth sister-in-law bought an apartment, didn’t you go buy stuff to bring back? After buying a house, the pressure to pay back the mortgage is so big. You and fourth brother are always eating at the school cafeteria. Usually, you are not willing to spend more than a dime. I saw it all happen to you, but the other sisters-in-law are terrible. They caused an argument and made you and fourth brother look bad,” Ji Yun said angrily.

At first, Yun Lili was in a good mood, but when this matter came up, she did not look well.

Ji Yunyun was right. She and Jianwen worked themselves to death because they wanted to pay off the mortgage. They didn’t want to spend a penny. They usually saved a lot, but the two sisters-in-law in the family had to be so rude.

They knew that they didn’t have much money to pay the mortgage, but they still had to criticize them over some New Years stuff?

Ji Yunyun continued, “And then there’s my third brother’s wife, who used to be a mindless bum and likes to bicker over everything. Compared to how she was before, I hate her fox charming ways even more. You didn’t see, fourth sister-in-law, but the orchard was really busy, everyone was working hard. She was the only one who wasn’t. She was just taking care of her two kids and didn’t help at all. And my third brother is like a slave to her. It’s like he’s kow-towing to her!”

Yun Lili had a lot of opinions about Feng Fangfang and Ji Mudan, but as for Su Danhong, she did not have any conflicting opinions. Last time, Su Danhong spoke up to end an embarrassing situation for her.

Moreover, her daughter was pretty much raised at her home. From her mother-in-law’s phone call, Su Danhong had bought several new picture books for her daughter a few days ago. Her mother-in-law said that her daughter was tired of reading the previous ones.

Moreover, Ji Jianyun, the third brother-in-law, had come here to sell fruit. Last year, Su Danhong said that she would send her some and she did this year. He brought a lot to her, so that she could share it with the other teachers and improve their relationships.

So it was not right for Yun Lili to say anything about Su Danhong.

“When you have your own children, you will know how difficult it is to take them around with you,” Yun Lili said.

“I think Renren and Qiqi are good children. They don’t make trouble. She’s just lazy!” Ji Yunyun declared.

Yun Lili said, “But this time when you went back, you came here looking really good. Aren’t things at home pretty good because of her?”

“Sister-in-law, why are you speaking up for her? You don’t realize that Yan’er has been taught to be bad by her. Last time Yan’er saw me eating fruit, she came over and said that if I didn’t work to be able to eat fruit, my wages would be deducted,” Ji Yunyun explained.

Yun Lili almost laughed. “Yan’er really said that?”

Her daughter’s life in the orchard should have been pretty good, and she was in charge of everything.

“It must be because of Su Danhong!” Ji Yunyun complained.

Yun Lili didn’t want to say it at first, but she had to bring up, “I won’t say anything in front of them, but I owe her a lot to your third sister-in-law. Don’t always badger your third sister-in-law.”

“What do you owe? Fourth sister-in-law, did you think you owe her because Yan’er is raised in the orchard? I think she is jealous that you have a daughter. Besides, Yan’er works on the mountain!” Ji Yunyun exclaimed.

Yun Lili didn’t think her daughter was doing any work, and it’s good for children to play around. She did not mind. She turned around and said, “It’s not Yan’er’s business. Your brother and I secretly borrowed the money from your parents to buy the apartment. Later, your eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law found out. Aside from them, your eldest brother and second brother were also uncomfortable. I know all about it.”

“Isn’t that borrowing? You said it was borrowed and it will be returned later!” Ji Yunyun believed.

If it wasn’t for the fight, Yun Lili didn’t plan to pay back, but it’s hard to say for sure. She said, “At that time, it was your third sister-in-law who took out the money to settle the fight. Although the orchard is good now, I’m not jealous of her. But I must remember how she took out money for it.”

Of course, the reason why Yun Lili was not jealous was because her family’s apartment was worth a lot of money. It was about 2,000 yuan when she bought it. Currently, it would take 3,000 yuan to buy one. Only those who had money could afford it.

It did not take long for her to pay off 1,000 yuan from the mortgage and she was satisfied, without a doubt.

Of course, she also had to remember that Su Danhong took 400 yuan out to appease Lao Da and Lao Er’s wives. Later on, she and Jianwen would just pay back the elders with 300 yuan so that no one would owe anyone!

Moreover, this place would always be hers. Who could say she was jealous? Out of all of her colleagues at work, how many of them bought a house for themselves?

Ji Yunyun had nothing to say.

Yun Lili said, “You are no longer a child. It is almost time to start thinking about a marriage partner. I will definitely add a little to your dowry, but I’m still not done with the mortgage and the budget is tight. You know, you probably should not consider getting anything from the other two families. Even if they have money, don’t think that they will add some to the dowry for you. You will have to rely on your third brother when the time comes. Yunyun, you should not marry with an embarrassing dowry.”

At first, Ji Yunyun wanted to say who cared about Su Danhong.

But when she opened her mouth, she couldn’t say it.

She was not going to discuss it any further.

She was able to freely go out whenever she wanted while she was at her fourth brother’s place. She ate out every day. The money she used to pay for everything was from Su Danhong that she got as her wages.

She only worked for a little while and she got quite a bit of money. How much would she get when she got married?

Su Danhong, who was far away, didn’t know that Ji Yunyun had the audacity to think about asking her how much she would contribute to the dowry. She was trying to burp Qiqi. She forgot to do it last time, and the little guy vomited all his milk. The little tiger cub was so unhappy that he cried very loudly. It took a long time to calm him down.
