Chapter 256 Ji Long

Because Ji Long sold everything in our house, and our husband and I had to work hard to make money. I don’t know when Ji Long was called Huagulong by the people in the village. There was even a saying that "there is a Huagulong in the family, so it should be a debt collector". Every time a parent educates their children, they always say, don’t learn from Hua Gulong from Ji’s family. You see, their family doesn’t even have a decent table now.

I miss Ji Long every day and every night, and I know that Ji Biao does too, because he always sits at the door and smokes a pipe, although he doesn't say anything.

Ji Long is gone, but life must go on. Maybe it was because the villagers' words were too harsh, or maybe Ji Biao didn't want such words to reach Ji Long's ears. He kept going out to work and saved a small amount of money.

Ji Biao still went out to work from time to time, while I did some chores for the people in the village. I saved the money one by one, hoping that when Ji Long came back, I could save enough money for him to marry a wife. With his wife's discipline, Ji Long's temper will improve.

Day by day, until five years later, a person came to the house.

The person who came was dressed in neat clothes, his eyes were bright, and he lost the edges and corners of his childhood, and was a little more wise. I recognized him immediately as my son, Ji-ryong.

When Ji Long saw me, his eyes were red, and after calling "Mother", he knelt down in front of me.

I held Ji Long in my arms and wept uncontrollably, and both mother and son wept into tears.

When Ji Biao came home, he saw that my face was full of joy, and the table was filled with a table of dishes. He had a vague guess in his heart, but he still walked around the house and saw Ji Long's figure with his own eyes. Only then did he laugh, and he had probably not laughed for many years.

Perhaps Ji Long still had resentment towards Ji Biao for driving him away from home. When he saw Ji Biao, he didn't show too much emotion, and just called "Father" lightly.

Ji Biao didn't care, just smiled and said, "Just come back." That night, he took Ji Long to drink a lot of wine.

After Ji Long came back, it was very different from before. He would take the initiative to help with the housework, and his hands were covered with thick calluses. Needless to say, he must have endured a lot of hardships in the past few years, but we all tacitly and never mentioned his travels in the past few years. I dare not think about how much Ji Long has suffered and how much anger he has endured to become what he is today.

Other villagers in Bone Bone Village soon learned of Ji Long's return, but they still had the impression of Ji Long when he left the village a few years ago. When they saw Ji Long, they often pointed behind their backs, and even some courageous children would run directly in front of Ji Long, call him "Huagulong", make various faces at him, and then run away. For these children, every time Ji Biao met, he would scold their parents for not having a tutor.

People in the village didn't like Ji Long, and Ji Long became more and more silent.

One night, I saw Ji Long collecting gravel. He packed the gravel in bags and pushed the cart towards Hualong Mountain. After seeing me, Ji Long only smiled and explained, "I want to build a house in the mountains."

His words made my tears drip down my face. It was my fault. I didn't teach him well at the beginning, and let him suffer from other people's cold words after suffering so much outside.

Seeing that I didn't stop him, Ji Long continued his plan to build a house in Hualong Mountain. I took out a sum of savings and asked Ji Long to buy materials for building the house, and told him that after the house was built, I would move in with him. Ji Long smiled, it was a smile from the heart, he knew that his mother did not abandon him.

And Ji Biao also evolves into Longshan from time to time, and he will bring some wood and stones to Ji Long. I know that the relationship between their father and son has eased a lot. Ji Biao even dug a well in the backyard of the house with his own hands. With this well, our family doesn't have to worry about drinking water, and we don't have to go up and down the mountain to fetch water every day.

A few months later, Ji Long built a house on Hualong Mountain. Since then, our family of three has lived in the mountain, away from the gossip and gossip in the village.

One day, Ji Long found an unconscious girl at the foot of the mountain, and he brought her back. The girl's head was hit hard, and she doesn't remember many things, except that she vaguely remembers her name is A Zhen.

Ji Biao and I didn't object to Ji Long's rescue, so Ah Zhen stayed in the house. When she recovers from her injuries, she can get up. She often helps the house with chores, and even goes out to pick wild vegetables on her own initiative.

Both Ji Biao and I can see that Ji Long and Ah Zhen are interested in each other. I asked Ah Zhen privately if she would like to marry Ji Long and become a family with us. Jane nodded shyly.

After getting A-Zhen's answer, we hurriedly helped Ji Long and A-Zhen prepare the things for their marriage, and bought a lot of new furniture. I even thought about what their children would look like, as gentle as A-Zhen , still as tall as Ji Long.

But just the night before Ji Long and A Zhen were going to get married, A Zhen's creditor came to him. It turned out that A-Zhen was sold by her betting father, and the deed of sale was in the hands of the creditors. They were so numerous that they forcibly took A-Zhen away.

Both Ji Biao and I feel sorry for what happened to A-Zhen, and we don't want Ji Long to be separated from A-Zhen, so we took out all our family savings and asked Ji Long to redeem A-Zhen.

Ji Long went there for ten days. When he returned home again, not only did he not bring Azhen back, but he also brought back injuries. He said that the little savings was not enough to redeem Azhen. Not only was he beaten up, but he was also humiliated and had no money.

After recovering from his injury at home, Ji Long said he was going out to make money. I knew he couldn't swallow that breath, and after that, he came back every few days.

However, both Ji Biao and I saw what was wrong with Ji Long. He no longer tidied himself up as neatly as before. Instead, his hair and face were disheveled and his beard was not shaved.

Once, Ji Biao followed Ji Long secretly and found Ji Long entered the casino. It turns out that Ji Long’s so-called making money is gambling, and only gambling can make money quickly. When he loses his gambling money, he steals. Jane's most hated gambler.

In order to get Ji Long to quit gambling, Ji Biao and I locked him up in the mountain house. At first, Ji-ryong is all yelling. But later, he gradually calmed down and assured us both that he would never do it again, and would never gamble again.

I finally relented, and I released Ji Long. But Ji Long took advantage of my unpreparedness, knocked me out, stole the valuables from the house, ignored me with blood all over his face, and continued to go out to gamble.

In half a day, Ji Long lost all the stolen items. When Ji Biao saw him, his eyes were red with anger, because we never thought that Ji Long would actually hurt his parents.

Ji Biao and Ji Long quarreled by the well, and Ji Long even pushed Ji Biao with his hands. When Ji Biao resisted, he accidentally pushed Ji Long into the ancient well...
