Chapter 258: Second Uncle's Words
After deciding on the matter, the family discussed how much a tractor would cost.
Grandpa often chatted with people and knew a lot about some villages.
"When the production team was disbanded and divided into things, someone from Maji took 1,006 and bought the tractor of the production team."
Ji Yuanhai smiled: "Grandpa, it's second-hand, in case something goes wrong, we don't know what to do, whether to buy it or buy a new one." β
"New?" Grandpa took a puff of his cigarette pouch, "New, that's a lot of money, you have to go up to 4,000 yuan." β
Ji Yuanhai said: "Is five thousand yuan enough? β
"That's sure enough." Grandpa said.
Ji Yuanhai nodded: "Then I'll leave five thousand yuan - grandpa, dad, should I add some money and buy a liberation truck?" β
"That cart should work better than a tractor."
Grandpa immediately said: "Then how much money do you have to add, you can't be so bad if you have money!" β
"Besides, in our place, tractors are better and more convenient than trucks."
When Ji Yuanhai saw that his grandfather said this, he didn't mention this aspect anymore.
He also said that his parents, brother and sister-in-law have jobs in the future, and his grandparents should be relaxed and enjoy happiness at home.
"That's what I said, the two of us don't work in the field at this age, which makes people laugh!" Grandpa said, "You have to do the work, a handful of old bones, if you don't do some work, you will feel uncomfortable." β
As he spoke, his grandfather laughed: "But our family is like this now, I am happy to work, brisk, I can do it if I want, and I will go home and rest when I am tired." β
"Well, grandpa, your mentality is right, I make a lot of money now, my brother also makes money, my father will drive a tractor in the future, and he will also make money, don't tire yourself." Ji Yuanhai said, "If I let me say, I will give our family tens of thousands of yuan, and our family will be relaxed-"
Ji Yuanhai's family disagreed.
If you have hands and feet, and you have a good life, can you still use it more easily?
Take Ji Yuanhai's money again and live an "easy life", and I don't know how to live a down-to-earth life in the future!
After saying this, Ji Yuanhai mentioned the matter of the three brothers of the Wang family.
Grandpa directly smoked his cigarette pouch and laughed: "Those three surnamed Wang, if you want to say that you want to hold back the bad water and do some bad things like rubbing the yin, I believe it; If they dare to run over and fight hard, or take the Wang family to fight hard with our Ji family, it will definitely not be possible. β
What Grandpa thought coincided with what Ji Yuanhai thought, and the family felt a lot more relieved when they heard this.
After chatting about this matter, grandma suddenly opened her mouth and asked Lu Heling if she would have a child after graduating from college.
Neither Ji Yuanhai nor Lu Heling shied away from this matter.
When the two of them graduate from college and are arranged by their work units, they will definitely have children.
Hearing them talk about this decision, the grandparents and parents were very pleased.
Ji Yuanhai and his wife finally wanted a child, but they didn't have a child, but they all seemed to have a mind in their hearts.
It's a pity that it's not a good time now, otherwise it would be nice to have three or five.
While chatting, it was getting late, and Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling also rested.
Early the next morning, the second uncle and the second aunt called Ji Yuanhai and his wife to go to dinner together.
Ji Yuanhai didn't feel surprised, but later his grandfather called the second uncle and the second aunt, and asked them to call the third uncle's family to have a reunion dinner.
This reunion dinner was unusually rich, that is, the second uncle drank a few more glasses of wine, and his face turned red again.
Perhaps after drinking, he became bolder, and the second uncle opened his mouth and shook his fingers slightly: "Yuan...... Yuan Hai ......"
"You're doing well outside, I didn't think about it...... How's it going at home? β
When Ji Yuanhai saw him like this, he understood why the two of them were going to take his wife to his house for dinner in the morning, and it turned out that they had something to open their mouths.
For the second uncle's way of opening his mouth, Ji Yuanhai doesn't like it very much.
You talk as soon as you speak, but you go around in circles with me, play with your brain, if I am caught in it, won't I be stupider than you and fall for you?
How is the family doing, I have grandparents, parents, and brothers, all of whom have been taken care of, what does it have to do with you? Am I indebted to you?
If you want to say who Ji Yuanhai owes, he actually owes some favors to his third uncle Ji Baoping - that is from the memory of the old lame, who rarely gives warmth to his family. It's just that Ji Baoping's life is okay, and he follows the seventh master Ji Baotian as an accountant, eating and drinking all year round, and he is full of red face.
The second uncle is from memory to reality, and he is not qualified to ask Ji Yuanhai for benefits; Not to mention, as soon as he opened his mouth, he was kidnapped with morality, as if Ji Yuanhai had made a mistake "regardless of his family" and needed to "know his mistakes and correct his mistakes".
Ji Yuanhai doesn't eat this set at all.
"It's okay at home." Ji Yuanhai said lightly.
Grandpa frowned and said nothing, looking at Ji Yuanhai's second uncle, but he didn't let him go.
You have to listen to what he thinks, whether it is suitable or not.
"Okay? What a line! The second uncle shook his head, "I worked hard all year round, my legs were frozen and hurt when I watered the ground, and when I harvested the wheat, the sweat beads were like raindrops, and when I drank a glass of water, I sweated all over my body, and all of a sudden came out!" β
Ji Yuanhai looked surprised: "That second uncle, your body is quite weak, you should make up for it!" β
"Flutter!"
Ji Yuanshan couldn't help but bow his head and laugh, Ma Xiuping and Lu Heling tried hard to keep their faces tight, and there was also a smile in their eyes.
The children of the second and third uncle's families are also in their teens, and when they saw Ji Yuanshan laughing, they all laughed along.
For a while, the atmosphere was quite cheerful.
The second uncle's face turned red: "Yuan Hai, don't talk nonsense with me!" β
"I ask you if it's hard to farm?"
"Fortunately." Ji Yuanhai replied.
"Do you have what it takes now? Can you help me find a way to make a living, and don't let me farm anymore? The second uncle asked again.
Ji Yuanhai looked at the second uncle, frowned, and said, "Second uncle, what livelihood do you want?" β
"You just let me, like Yuanshan, go to the county to rent a shop and sell food." The second uncle said.
Ji Yuanhai nodded: "Second uncle, you can think so, it's also a way, you can go." β
"My brother is on the side of Tuanjie Alley, you are far away, almost to the north side of the county seat."
"I ...... If I can do it, I won't talk to you. The second uncle said, "You see that I am a farmer, how can I have the money to do these things?" β
"I can't do it if I rent a house to do business, and I don't have any money."
Ji Yuanhai stared at the second uncle, shook his head slightly, and echoed: "Oh, what can I do about this?" It's not going to be easy. β
If it is not the second uncle, who has a suspicious character and a slightly poor family relationship, but the third uncle, then Ji Yuanhai is willing to give money to help solve the problem.
But the second uncle is really out of tune.
When the second uncle saw Ji Yuanhai say this, he also understood a little: "Yuanhai, don't you want to help me?" β
Ji Yuanhai replied, "How can this be? β
"I'm not familiar with the county, so you have to come by yourself to rent a house, do business or something, I really can't help too much in this regard."
The second uncle stood up with the intention of drinking, and his voice also raised: "Yuan Hai, you have also done business in the county before, and I don't know it!" You tell me nowβ"
"Sit down!"
Grandpa's face sank: "What's the noise?" If you drink too much, go home and sober up, and don't make a noise with me! β
The second uncle sat down stupidly and said aggrievedly: "Dad, look at Yuan Hai......"
Grandpa frowned and said, "What's wrong with Yuan Hai?" Yuanhai is very good! β
"If you don't have anything else to say, just eat, and when you're full, go back quickly!"
The second uncle pursed his lips and stopped talking.
The second aunt said softly: "Dad, he also drank too much, and what he said was not good, usually not like this." β
"Then again, Yuan Hai, my aunt will borrow some money from you, our family wants to do business, do you have spare money to lend to your aunt?"
When Ji Yuanhai heard this, he smiled: "Auntie, I listen to your words a lot." β
"The second uncle came up and said that I didn't know that my family was having a bad time, and I was like a criminal, if I listened to him and gave him the money, then I would admit that I had committed a crime."
As an elder, the second aunt directly opened her mouth to borrow money like this, Ji Yuanhai should give some affection, after all, she is the second uncle and second aunt.
If you want to play tricks, Ji Yuanhai will definitely not be fooled.
Well, that's the point!
Only then did the family understand that Ji Yuanhai refused to pay attention to the second uncle's words just now, it turned out that he was looking for fault when he spoke; The second aunt reached out and pinched the second uncle, and pinched his face: Let you be smart!
"Yuan Hai, how much can you lend to my family?"
The second aunt asked.
Ji Yuanhai groaned slightly, and replied, "Five hundred, is it enough?" β
Five hundred yuan is almost enough to go to the county seat to open a business and do business, especially breakfast, the cost is really not too high.
The second aunt hesitated for a moment, the two of them discussed, it was best to ask Ji Yuanhai for more, and it would be convenient to have plenty of money when they were waiting for business.
Unexpectedly, Ji Yuanhai did not "give money" easily, but made it clear that he would "borrow money" before agreeing to borrow.
Moreover, the number of "five hundred" is much more than the income in rural areas, but if you go to the county seat to do business, it seems a little barely enough.
After thinking about it, I felt that it would be good for Ji Yuanhai to lend money, and the second aunt finally agreed: "Well, okay, five hundred yuan is enough." β
"My family is going to the county seat to try, if it's really not that piece of material, I'll come back."
Ji Yuanhai nodded: "It's good that you are willing to try." β
"I don't rush this five hundred dollars; But I also have something to say earlier, if you can't pay this money, it proves that you can't do business well, so don't ask me to borrow new money. β
"If only we could pay back the ......money," the second uncle hurriedly asked.
Ji Yuanhai said with a smile: "Then the second uncle and aunt, your business is prosperous and you have a good life, there is no need to borrow money from me again, right?" β
The second uncle and aunt glanced at each other and nodded.
That's right.
If you make a fortune in business, there is no need to borrow money anymore.
The second uncle even thought: Looking at Ji Yuanhai's appearance of cherishing money, he may have a bad life in the future, and he may not be able to lend money to whom when the time comes.
When I think about it like this, I feel a lot happier in my heart.
After eating, Ji Yuanhai carried the gifts for the third uncle Ji Baoping's family and returned home with the third uncle and the third aunt's family.
After arriving at the third uncle's house, Ji Yuanhai sat down to talk and asked about the situation at the third uncle's house.
The third uncle smiled: "It's okay, your seventh master takes good care of me, and you call me for everything." β
Ji Yuanhai smiled: "You two do accounts together?" β
The third uncle smiled awkwardly: "Just know, don't talk about it." β
Since the disbandment of the production team, Ji Baotian's behavior has not been hidden from Ji Yuanhai, but Ji Yuanhai has no intention of participating in the affairs of the village, so he has not asked.
In addition, reasonable wear and tear is also a common thing that makes people unable to find fault.
The third uncle has a very good life, and he has more money than ordinary farmers.
Ji Yuanhai took the initiative to ask the third uncle: "Third uncle, have you ever thought about going outside to make some money, or do some business or something?" β
The third uncle was a little surprised: "The second brother asked you to borrow money when he was eating just now, and you are quite ...... Whatever, why did you tell me about it again? β
Ji Yuanhai's words and deeds just now are not easy to describe, fine? Calculate? It all makes sense, but it's not so nice to say.
Ji Yuanhai said calmly: "I don't want to lend money to my second uncle because he is impulsive and has no long-term patience to do things, and I feel that he is not doing well." β
"Besides, when he came up to me and said those things, it was not to borrow money at all, but to blackmail me into paying him, and if I listened to him, I would be a fool."
The third uncle thought for a while and said with a smile: "You think about it, but that's the case." β
"Are you looking for me now, do you feel that I am more suitable than the second brother to go out to do business?"
"It's not." Ji Yuanhai said, "I'm here to ask, if you have the idea of going out to do business and doing something, I can help you." β
The third uncle smiled in surprise: "The difference between me and the second brother, in your place, is quite big?" β
Ji Yuanhai said helplessly: "Our family, just the second uncleβ"
Ji Yuanhai didn't say the rest of the words, and the third uncle basically understood that the second uncle of Ji Yuanhai had peeped into the women's toilet before, but the whole family was very angry.
This really makes it a little difficult for everyone to trust and respect him anymore.
What the Ji family didn't know was that in Ji Yuanhai's other old lame memory, the grandparents were all angry with the second uncle's strange operation, and the second uncle and Ji Yuanhai were even more emotional, and it didn't help.
Ji Yuanhai was able to borrow five hundred yuan from his family, which was already for the sake of the family's face.
The third uncle could see Ji Yuanhai's sincerity, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Yuanhai, seriously, the days outside do sound very good, and there are all kinds of ...... But I have a wife and children at home, and life in the village is not bad. β
"You're not going out, are you?"
Ji Yuanhai was not surprised to see the third uncle choose this way.
As an accountant in the village, there is wine and meat from time to time, and this day is very good for the third uncle.
With his age, he has a wife and children, and leaving his hometown makes people feel uneasy when they think about it......
Ji Yuanhai didn't persuade again, but just told the third uncle that he could ask for help with anything, and he would help as much as he could; Including the urgent need for money, so to speak.
The third uncle was also very touched by Ji Yuanhai's thoughts.
After all, in comparison, the treatment of himself and the second brother is completely different, which shows Ji Yuanhai's sincerity.
