Rebirth to the Eighties to Get Rich

Chapter 24 – Do You Want to Buy a House?

Yun Lili, who had just come out of the room with her baby in her arms, was a little stunned when she saw this scene.

The most annoying thing for these two nieces and her nephew had always been Su Danhong. When did they become so happy to see her?

Not to mention her, even Ji Jianyun was in a daze.

They naturally didn’t know what had happened, but Feng Fangfang, Ji Mudan, and the others did not have any reactions to it.

Over the past few months, the children of their own family had not stopped going to Su Danhong to hit the autumn wind. Su Danhong, this third younger sister-in-law, seemed to have changed. They did not really take their children’s behavior seriously. When the children went over, not only did she greet them with delicious food, she would sometimes go into town and bring something back for them.

For example, the beautiful hairpins that Su Danhong bought for these daughters of Ji Mudan’s family were cherished for a long time. Everytime they wore it out, other little girls were filled with envy.

Hou Wazi also had it good. As long as he was hungry, he would go find his third aunt. Even if he was a little afraid of that fierce black dog, he would go to his third aunt and she would give him hot food.

He ate a lot of eggs and meat, so he looked like he put on a lot of weight this year.

In this regard, Feng Fangfang and Ji Mudan turned a blind eye. In any case, it wasn’t them that asked the children to behave like this, but the children themselves who were not thoughtful.

But for this reason, they were more friendly to Su Danhong.

In any case, if your child ate other people’s food and used other people’s things, and you still just stared at the other person, would you still want to take advantage of the other person, like Su Danhong, in the future?

“Third aunt gave you a New Year’s greeting earlier. Come on, here is one red envelope each.” Su Danhong smiled and gave each of them a red envelope. It did not contain a lot of money, but a dime was definitely not a small amount.

Hou Wazi and the two nieces were very excited when they got the red envelopes.

“With each of you getting a third envelope, can you still see that there are still other adults like your third uncle here?” Ji Jianyun asked with a smile.

“Third uncle!” Hou Wazi threw himself onto him. “Third uncle, have you prepared red envelopes for us?”

The two girls were not as bold as Hou Wazi, but they were also looking at Ji Jianyun with expectations.

“Third uncle has not prepared it yet, so I’ve prepared some snacks for you. Hold out your hands,” Ji Jianyun replied.

The three children held out their hands, and Ji Jianyun gave them a handful of sugared peanuts and melon seeds.

They were overjoyed.

Ji Jianguo and Ji Jianye greeted Ji Jianyun. Feng Fangfang and Ji Mudan also gave a friendly greeting to Su Danhong. They did not have to give Su Danhong a red envelope since she did not have any children. They took advantage of this and were friendly to her.

On the other side, Yun Lili came over with her child in her arms and said with a smile, “Third sister-in-law, you can’t favor one over the other. My sweetie also wants a red envelope.”

Yun Lili was shocked when she came closer and saw that Su Danhong’s face changed.

Her skin was as delicate as cream, like it could come off if it was blown on. Is… is this Su Danhong?

Her clothes were in an unsophisticated red color, but she actually looked like a unique beauty when she wore it!

“I have prepared one.” Regardless of what her fourth younger sister-in-law thought, Su Danhong gave the red envelope to the little baby who was still in her swaddling clothes. The little baby was sleeping. Su Danhong didn’t even have to think about it to know that it was Yun Lili who heard the sound outside and brought her baby out.

“It’s cold outside. Take the baby back,” Su Danhong said.

Yun Lili came back to her senses and felt very upset, but she still gave a gentle laugh and said, “Then thank you, third sister-in-law.”

With that, she went back with the baby in her arms. As for Feng Fangfang and Ji Mudan over there, she paid no attention to them at all.

Father Ji was talking to his four sons, while Mother Ji was watching and smiling. It was obvious that Mother Ji was very happy with the big reunion today.

On another side, Ji Yunyun’s eyes were looking this way, and Su Danhong knew that she was waiting for a red envelope.

The rule here was that no matter how old a person was, even if they were more than eighteen years old, they would still get red envelopes. In previous years, Su Danhong did not give any. Ji Jianyun had to secretly give them out, and there was at least about ten yuan. However, Ji Jianyun’s money was collected by her this year. If she didn’t give Ji Yunyun a red envelope, then her heart would die!

Su Danhong snorted on the inside. She is such a small belly chicken-hearted1 woman! She will be obedient when I have a red envelope, but go against me when I do not!

Feng Fangfang and Ji Mudan pulled Su Danhong into the kitchen.

They muttered to her, “Lao Si’s wife, that lazy bitch, look at her. No wonder you used to be troubled by her so much. She used her child to slack off, and she had to foolishly struggle to take her sleeping child out for a red envelope. Is that what teachers from a city do?!”

Ji Mudan took the chance to say, “Isn’t that right? If you look at her eyes, then the heavens have almost turned upside from her eye rolls. Didn’t she only bring back two roasted ducks? The end of the year is almost here and our parents will be eating those two roasted ducks!”

It was obvious that they were bursting with complaints about Yun Lili. They treated Su Danhong like this in the past when it was the penny-pinching owner.

However, this year, Su Danhong’s filial piety to Father Ji and Mother Ji had almost made up for the previous years. They also came over to take advantage of her, so they won’t say anything about her.

Now that it was Yun Lili who looked down on the three of them as rural wives, they wanted to stand together against the foreigner!

Su Danhong didn’t have a lot of knowledge about this. “She only comes back once a year,” she said. “Don’t worry about her. We’ll just take care of ourselves.”

“I know, but I just don’t like her behavior. Being a teacher is great, but I don’t believe that she can teach good students like this!” Ji Mudan exclaimed.

Feng Fangfang said, “Don’t think it’s over. Just watch, after the New Year’s Eve dinner, she’s going to start making trouble again. By the way, how many red envelopes are you going to give our parents this year?”

“As long as the intentions are good, it doesn’t matter how much,” Su Danhong replied.

Ji Mudan nodded. “That sounds good. Can she compare with us? We take care of father and mother all the time, and mother doesn’t eat a grain of rice from Lao Si’s wife. And last time when they bought a house in Jiangshui City, our parents must have given them a lot of money!”

When Feng Fangfang heard this she immediately glared. “They still gave them money?”

“If not, then how can fourth brother-in-law buy a house so quickly? They must have given them money!” Ji Mudan complained.

Feng Fangfang was extremely irritated. “Why is it that she is so cheap that she has our parents pay for her house? We haven’t received a lot from her since then!”

“I haven’t received much either,” Ji Mudan huffed.

Su Danhong observed on the side. She asked, “How much is the house in Jiangshui City?”

“They say it was about one or two thousand!” Feng Fangfang responded. “How can the two of them make so much money from teaching?”

Teaching only earned about more than ten yuan a month. And then there was the cost of living and other bills like water and electricity. In Jiangshui City, you have to pay even if you were buying a spring onion.

How much would the couple have left over in a month?

A couple thousand yuan was not a small amount. Where would they find that much?!

As the two sister-in-laws mumbled, Su Danhong’s mind was a little shaken. Hong Jie from the embroidery shop told her that if she had money, then she should go to Jiangshui City to buy a place. The price would certainly rise in the future.

She had almost two thousand yuan in her pocket right now. Did she want to go buy a place?
