Chapter 620: Chapter 622 A Dog
"Really?"
Xu Nian’an elongated his tone as he sized up his beautiful sister. Was Pei Yicheng even a man?
His sister was so pretty; could he really restrain himself?
"Of course." Xu Nianhua nodded with certainty. Facing his skeptical gaze, she didn’t know what to say to Xu Nian’an, so she changed the subject. "By the way, I called home today. Mom said we’re moving on May 10th, and the color TV has arrived. She kept saying we are wasting money."
"No worries, Mom might say we’re wasting money, but deep down, she’s definitely happy about it." Xu Nian’an understood his mother through and through.
...
In Gaoliang County, Shuanghe Village.
Ji Ying returned home with a spring in her step.
With two children who were studying and had bought a big color TV for the family, who in the village wouldn’t envy her for having such great sons and a daughter?
In the village, aside from the Xu Family, the Xu Yuchun family and the Cai Family had also built new houses, so the new storied building of the Xu Family didn’t stand out too much.
"Yingzi, these are the bayberries Zou Sheng picked, they’re really sweet. Take some home to try," Hu Aihong had been waiting for Ji Ying since early morning. Seeing Ji Ying return, she hurriedly handed over a basket of bayberries.
The bayberries in the basket weren’t large, but they were all bright red and exceptionally pleasing to see.
"Aihong sister-in-law, I really shouldn’t." Ji Ying reflexively declined.
"Zou Sheng picked these bayberries from the mountain. They’re not worth much, so what’s the issue? I know Nianhua loves sugar coated bayberries, and we can’t eat so many. It’s just right for you to take them home," Hu Aihong pushed the bayberries into Ji Ying’s arms, her enthusiasm making it hard for Ji Ying to resist.
If it wasn’t for the furniture factory hiring, Zou Sheng wouldn’t have found this job that paid thirty yuan a month.
"This..." Ji Ying hesitated, feeling uneasy about accepting so many bayberries.
"What’s the matter, Yingzi, do you think my bayberries are not good enough?" Hu Aihong pretended to be upset.
Ji Ying immediately shook her head, accepted the bayberries, and said, "Then thank you, Aihong sister-in-law."
"Alright, I should head back and cook too," Hu Aihong said, and turned to leave. But after a few steps, she quickly came back to Ji Ying’s ear and said somewhat embarrassingly, "Yingzi, can I, can I come over to watch TV at your place?"
"Of course, you can," Ji Ying thought it was something serious. She added with a smile, "But we’re moving in a couple of days, and we can watch TV only after the antenna is installed."
"No problem, no problem. I’ll come over after you have moved," Hu Aihong said with a grin and walked away.
On her way home, Ji Ying had already encountered several families who wanted to come to her house to watch TV.
Humming a tune, Hu Aihong hadn’t reached home yet when she heard Liu Sanmei spit disdainfully.
"Auntie Liu, what are you doing? Spitting like that, what if it landed on me by accident?" Hu Aihong had always been at odds with Liu Sanmei, the kind that would almost come to blows upon meeting.
"Ptooey."
Liu Sanmei spat again.
Hu Aihong quickly moved aside, her face full of disgust.
"Look at you, fawning like that. If someone didn’t know better, they’d think you were her lap dog," Liu Sanmei had clearly seen Hu Aihong delivering the bayberries to Ji Ying.
Over the past six months, Ji Ying had built a new house, and Xu Nian’an and Xu Nianhua had bought a big color TV for the family. The furniture factory had hired many youths from the village. When people saw Ji Ying, they praised her, while many others laughed at them!
They laughed at how they had driven Xu Qinghe’s family away and now, their own family was prospering more and more!
