3. The Most Outstanding Youngest Son in the Early 1980s (3)

The place is so big, and there are several families next to where Uncle Ji Qi lives. Now that it's getting dark, everyone doesn't go to work and just sits in their own yard chatting and working.

When Ji Changze came out of Uncle Ji Qi's house carrying a basket of mountain goods, they all watched.

Look, I told you when I saw him on the road before, would Ji Changze be so kind to help others with work?

He just pretended to hold the basket, and Uncle Ji Qi gave him so many things.

A few people were muttering and discussing how Uncle Ji Qi was so confused and could be coaxed by Ji Changze for so long, when Ji Changze saw them.

The sky was getting a little dark, which affected people's vision. He squinted for two seconds before he saw a familiar face.

"Old Uncle Zhao."

The old man who was smoking a dry cigarette and listening to other people's discussions was startled and looked over subconsciously.

As a result, he saw Ji Changze looking at him with a smile, his whole body looked out of tune, and he opened his mouth and said: "I remember you have a cart at home. I want to go to the city to buy some things for the wedding tomorrow. Do you think that cart can do it?" Can’t you lend it to me?”

Old Uncle Zhao's expression immediately hesitated.

He has a trolley at home, it's still a thing left behind by his father.

But lend it to Ji Changze...

Thinking about Ji Changze's reputation in the village, he loves to eat and is lazy, and he also tries his best to be lazy at work. Although he doesn't cheat, isn't this unconditional?

With such a character, it's strange that you can rest assured when you lend him something.

But if you don’t lend it, don’t hit the smiling person, let alone the same village. Ji Changze doesn’t look like that kind of honest person. If he doesn’t lend it out and someone will hold a grudge, he can do something small. what to do.

It doesn’t matter if you borrow it, and it doesn’t matter if you don’t borrow it.

How can this be done?

Seeing the tangled look on Old Uncle Zhao's face, Ji Changze didn't embarrass him and went straight into the courtyard, pulling Old Uncle Zhao inside.

Walking into Uncle Zhao's yard, he closed the door.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing?"

Ji Changze could clearly feel that Uncle Zhao, whose arm he was holding, was completely stiff, looking at him as if he was facing a great enemy, as if he was some kind of murderer who could just take out a knife and chop someone.

It must be said that this extremely vigilant look really made Ji Changze want to tease Uncle Zhao.

He turned around and made a...

basket-taking action.

Forget it, the old man can't stand being scared at his age, so he should just be honest.

Uncle Zhao stood there vigilantly and puzzled, watching Ji Changze take down the basket, grab a few wild yams from it, and stuff them into his hands.

He was stunned.

"What are you doing?"

Ji Changze's attitude was very natural: "You lent me the cart, I am grateful to you, take these yams, you don't need a pot or anything, just get some firewood and dig a hole to cook them."

"No, no, that's not good, take it back, take it back, we don't do capitalism."

Knowing that Ji Changze didn't want to give him a knife, but wanted to give him wild yams, Uncle Zhao relaxed and pushed the yams back.

While pushing, he suddenly realized.

That's not right, didn't he agree to lend the cart yet?

Before he asked, Ji Changze said:

"How can it be capitalism? We are from the same village. If I use your cart for nothing, that would be capitalism. Uncle Zhao, we are from the same village, you can't hurt me."

Uncle Zhao was frightened.

He didn't care that he hadn't agreed to borrow the cart. Didn't he just not want to take the things?

How could he be considered to be harming others?

Seeing that he didn't push the cart anymore, Ji Changze quickly looked around the yard and quickly locked the position of the cart. He went straight forward and pushed the cart over, saying very naturally:

"Just take it, otherwise I would be embarrassed to borrow the cart. Besides, if you don't eat it, can your grandson at home not eat it? Xizi looks smart, but he is thin and small. If he eats enough, he will definitely be smarter. In the future, he will be a college student and come back."

After he said that, Uncle Zhao's heart, which had been wavering just now, became even more excited.

Yes, his grandson is so young and doesn't eat much every day. These wild yams can at least be a snack. If you save them, they can be eaten for several days.

Besides, Ji Changze also said that his grandson is smart, so how can he not keep up with the food? Now everyone eats in a big pot, and they are not allowed to cook at home. Wild yam is good. Just light a fire on the ground and throw it in to cook. It is filling and hidden.

But lending it to Ji Changze...

His reputation in the village still makes Uncle Zhao a little entangled.

Ji Changze put the basket on the cart and waved his hand: "Okay, take the things, I'm leaving."

"Don't worry, I will lend you the car next time and send you things. We can't be capitalists who eat for free."

I'll give it back next time! !

Oh, that's not just a few wild yams.

That may be more than a dozen yams!

What's the entanglement? !

I don't know, I haven't seen it!

Anyway, it's right to borrow the car!

Uncle Zhao quickly put down the wild yams and greeted them enthusiastically: "Can I take you?"

The people outside had seen Old Uncle Zhao being dragged in by Ji Changze, and they were looking at him with their heads tilted up.

"Ji Changze doesn't know how to hit people, does he?"

"That's not true. After all, he is from the same village. Old Uncle Zhao still watched him grow up."

"This kid is very good at it. I really can't tell for sure. I said, how about we go in and take a look?"

While several people were talking, the door suddenly opened and Ji Changze came out pushing a cart.

With a smile on his fair face, which was always considered by the villagers as a sign of laziness and lack of work, he was pushing the cart while saying:

"Hey, you are just being polite. Don't worry, uncle, I will return the car when I come back from the city tomorrow."

Immediately afterwards, Old Uncle Zhao also walked out, with wrinkles on his face that made him want to squeeze out a flower with a smile, and his tone was as warm as he wanted:

"Don't worry, don't worry, it won't be a problem if you return it in a few days."

"Then thank you, uncle. I'm leaving, uncle."

Ji Changze didn't even look at the people who were standing at the door before and were now standing aside blankly.

Even though the shock on their faces at this moment was no less than seeing the sun coming out of the west.

There was also a car, and there were also some locals who were ready to make a little money. Ji Changze, who felt that he was alive, pushed the car, turned back with a smile and waved his hand, and then went straight towards the Ji family.

After all, he had a bad reputation in the village. No one dared to say anything when he was present. They watched him walk away and probably couldn't hear them anymore. Those people went to ask Old Uncle Zhao:

"What did Ji Changze tell you just now? Why did you agree to lend him the car? You're not afraid that he won't return it or damage it to you."

Old Uncle Zhao waved his hands with a look of disgust on his face: "Don't talk nonsense, I watched Nagasawa grow up. Isn't it normal for me to lend him a car?"

He was quite pleased, thinking that Ji Changze would lend him a few wild yams and lend him a few at a time.

From now on, his little grandson will no longer have to worry about being hungry at night and not having to eat.

The people who heard this: "..."

No, when Ji Changze asked him to borrow the car just now, was the embarrassment on his face fake?

"Did Ji Changze say something to you? Or did he scare you?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could Changze scare me?"

Uncle Zhao glared at the person who said this.

If these people spread that Ji Changze scared him, and Ji Changze knew it, what would he do if he didn't send him wild yam next time.

"Changze is actually quite good, but his reputation was ruined by the rumors in the village before. Don't talk nonsense outside. I wanted to lend him the car. Hey, I just like this kid's good character."

People outside: "..."

Ji Changze is a good person? ? ?

He is a good person? ? ?

After saying this, Uncle Zhao went back to the yard. He had to hide the wild yams well.

When Sun Sun comes back, Ming'er will quietly take him to eat yams.

He left, but the others were confused.

Is this a dream?

Or did the sun really rise from the west?

Is Ji Changze a good person? ? ?

***

"Changze, you are so nice. I told my mother what I taught her before, and she really treated me better. She even brought me a quilt just now, saying that I should cover myself with it at night."

When Ji Changze returned to his room, his elder brother Ji Changguang was already sitting on the kang, waiting for him with excitement. When he saw him come in, he couldn't wait to greet him:

"Dad has also smiled at me, and he also said that next time I should bring Huifen back with me."

This made Ji Changguang very happy. He had always been worried that his parents didn't like his wife, but he had to be filial to his parents, and he knew that his wife had done nothing wrong.

I didn't know how to adjust, so I could only try to go home alone every time to separate the two sides from meeting.

As a result, today I learned the words that Ji Changze taught him, saying that working in the factory was a bit hard, but fortunately I could squeeze out a leave to go home to see my parents, and Huifen also had a hard time squeezing out a leave, but every time I went home, the things I bought were carefully selected by her. If they were angry that Huifen didn't come, next time even if their supply and marketing cooperative didn't allow it, he would let her take a leave. After returning, the expressions on my parents' faces softened visibly.

Ji Changze thought, it would be strange if he didn't smile.

The biggest knot in the hearts of Ji's parents is that their eldest son ran away to the city, lived in his wife's family, ate his wife's family's food, and his job was also found by his father-in-law. Isn't that a live-in son-in-law living on the snobbish side?

In the village, the most unpromising men are live-in sons-in-law, and they have no dignity in their wives' families all their lives.

Although their family has no money, they have at least cultivated Ji Changguang with all their heart, but he ran away just after he was cultivated.

In addition, Ji Changguang never speaks and doesn't bring his wife back to see his parents. He thought this was to separate the contradictions. In fact, in the eyes of Ji's parents, who were already worried, this was the eldest daughter-in-law looking down on them.

Ji Changguang is such a live-in son-in-law, of course he can't order her around.

It's strange that he can feel comfortable.

But what Ji Changguang said today is to show that his status at home is still good, and he also said that the eldest daughter-in-law is not not coming, but can't get away, and the things he brought before were all picked by the eldest daughter-in-law.

The contradiction was gone, so the two elders were no longer angry.

Seeing Ji Changguang still overjoyed, Ji Changze patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, remember to say that your sister-in-law is filial in front of your parents next time. It's so late, go to bed quickly, we have to go to the city tomorrow."

"Go to the city?"

Ji Changguang was stunned and asked his brother: "Are you going to the city too?"

"Yes, it's not that the weather is getting colder and the road is not safe. I just want to go to the city recently, so I'll go with you so that I can take care of you."

Ji Changze climbed on the bed and spread the quilt. As he spread it, he said smoothly: "Also, every time it's my sister-in-law or you who come back to our house, none of us have ever visited my sister-in-law's house. It's so unpleasant. I'll drop by my sister-in-law's house tomorrow to pay her respects." "

Ji Changguang was even happier.

If it were before, he would definitely reject it, thinking that Ji Changze wanted to eat and drink.

After all, the brothers have never been close, and Ji Changze is like this.

but now……

He looked very happy: "Then big brother will entertain you well tomorrow."

Ji Changze was not polite: "The relationship is good, brother, I have wanted to go to my sister-in-law's house for a long time, but you are living at my father-in-law's house, so don't give me any good wine or food, just make some home-cooked food. ”

"How about that? It's hard for you to come here once. I must greet you."

Ji Changguang didn't plan to use his father-in-law's money. He still had money of his own. Although it wasn't much, it was definitely enough to give his brother a good meal.

Ji Changze had already made the bed and lay down in it.

"Brother, don't worry, I definitely don't eat and drink for free. My buddy in the city got some high-end gifts, saying they are the most nourishing and rare mountain products. Well, I will give one to my sister-in-law's family tomorrow. I will definitely give it to her. I’ve given you enough face.”

Nagasawa was still thinking of saving face for him.

And he actually didn't eat for free and even took things.

If Ji Changze knew what he was thinking, he would definitely laugh a few times.

No one is loose these days, so no one will eat and drink for free.

Besides, don’t you have to take things when visiting relatives?

However, Ji Changguang didn't think about it at all, which was also due to the image of his younger brother in his heart.

After all, he had always been eating and drinking for free, and now it suddenly changed for the better. Ji Changguang could not wait to be moved to tears.

That's great.

Why didn't he realize it before.

Nagasawa is such a good brother!
