Chapter 167: nder<hr>


    Uncle Ji was very attached to the orchard. After returning home, Aunt Li asked him, How is the orchard?


    If nothing bad happens, we should be sessful. Uncle Ji nodded.


    Although it was not his orchard anymore, he hoped that it would be sessful. After all, it was his nephews, and he only took it over because he was his uncle. Two other families wanted to transfer their orchards to Jianyun, but Jianyun didnt want it.


    He was a man with a lot of feelings.


    However, Aunt Li was different. When she heard him, she said with stress, I told you to keep trying again, but you just didnt listen. Look, didnt Jianyun just nt some trees? Our family lost more than 100 yuan on those fruit saplings!


    Although Ji Jianyun was kind and paid all the costs for taking over thend from Uncle Ji directly, he did not take over the loss from the fruit seedlings. He would not let his kindness go that far.


    It was fine being nice, but if he was too nice, others would take him for granted. It would produce the opposite desired results.


    Thus, Ji Jianyun did not take over the loss from the fruit seedlings.


    What are you trying to say? Dont say that again! Uncle Ji frowned.


    Aunt Li still didnt ept it. Im telling the truth! If we didnt give up at that time, we could have been running the orchard!


    Uncle Ji said, Right now I can earn 30 yuan a month. I can earn back what we lost from the saplings in a couple of months. Also, our family has nted a lot of sweet potatoes this year. We can sell it for a lot of money. If you dont ept it, I will be ashamed to do this job.


    What do you mean ashamed? You are his uncle. How can he dare to think of making you resign? Aunt Li eximed immediately.


    Uncle Ji didnt bother to talk to her.


    How could Aunt Li not know what the orchards progress had been so far? She went to see it. From one nce, she knew the saplings were growing well and it didnt take long. Her family worked themselves to death over thend, so she felt that it must be growing well because they had taken care of thend before. Otherwise, it would not have been that fast.


    Even if Jianyuns wife brought prosperity, it was impossible to make it happen so fast.


    Because of how unconvinced she was, she went back and gossiped about it.


    The vige was only so big, so what secrets were there? *:*:       . : *:*


    The gossip spread to Mother Ji almost immediately. The anger in Mother Jis heart was burning.


    If she had not endured it, she would have barreled through the door and beaten her to death. When she was young, even her sisters-inw were beaten by her.


    However, now, Mother Ji has changed the way she did things. She didnt bother to lower herself to that womans level. Instead, she was going to change who was hired for picking fruit.


    After all, the orchard required people to pick fruit. It was going to happen sooner orter. Last year, Aunt Li had a spot. This year, the entire family didnt get a spot, including her daughter-inw.


    Ji Jianchuan heard from his wifeter that his mother had spoken badly about Jianyun.


    Immediately, anger rose on his face.


    Although he was working for Ji Jianyun, his cousin, he didnt feel humiliated. It was the opposite. He treasured the job a lot.


    After a busy day, he could still work on his own field. The 30 yuan sry per month was always paid on time. It was neverte. There were also many bonus things given during the holidays.


    Besides the New Year celebrations, this was a busy strawberry season for Mother Ji. asionally, he was asked to bring some back for his children to eat. Although these strawberries were not pretty, they were still edible and tasted decent.


    The children liked it a lot. They would go up the mountain to help pick strawberries, and sometimes they came home with eggs.


    He thought it was a good way to live. After saving some money, he nned on renovating the yard. His two children were not young, and they should have their own rooms.


    But he never thought that his mother would be eyeing the orchards sess after Jianyun took over and be so jealous that she would go out and speak ill of Jianyun.


    That day, Ji Jianchuan went home. When he arrived, his father was fighting with his mother. With the way his mother was acting, it was obvious that she was not convinced.


    Ji Jianchuan said, Mother, if Jianyuns orchard bes sessful, it can only be said that it was fate. Before that, Jianhe, father, and I worked to death like dogs every day. We had no way to make the orchard sessful. Also, before father wanted to give the mountain away, and you agreed to it. Right now you are making things hard for me and father.


    Making things hard? If our orchard was sessful, would you and your father be working for him? Aunt Li Tang snorted coldly.


    Even if the orchard was not sessful, theres no way I can find a job thats as good as what Jianyun offered. Father and I earn 60 yuan a month, thats more than 700 yuan a year. And we also get New Year gifts. When it was our orchard, we never made as much as that, Ji Jianchuan said.


    What he didnt say was that they would never even make 50% of that. It would be more like 2% over a year.


    Dont be so hypnotized by him. If this orchard was sessful, it would be worth so much more! And we can raise our own chickens on the mountain. Think of how much we can earn all the time! Aunt Li retorted.


    What do you want to do? Do you want to ask Jianyun to return the orchard? Uncle Ji said with an annoyed look.


    It would be better if he did return the orchard to us. I acknowledge him as my nephew. If he doesnt, then hmph! Aunt Li eximed coldly.


    Uncle Ji sneered, Then dont acknowledge him. Im telling you now, this is thest time. If you dare to go out and talk nonsense again, you will pack your things and go to the western slope. My temple cant amodate you being such a big god!


    Aunt Li looked stunned. How dare you drive me back! Who am I doing this for? You have no conscience!


    Dont make any more trouble, or else father will have no dignity to help manage the mountain. If that happens, mother, you will probably be happy about it! Ji Jianchuan warned and went back. It looked like he would not have to pay for his mothers living expenses in the future. In the future, he would just leave his mother to her own after trying to start some trouble!


    This matter also came to Su Danhong through Wang Honghua and Li Yucui. Su Danhong found out.


    Wang Honghua and Li Yucui were both angry. And what about the other two families in the vige with orchards? They cant give it to someone else even if they wanted to. She was jealous when she saw that the orchard was bing sessful. How cheap is she to want it back?


    Its impossible to take it back. Its written in ck and white. But if it ends up in a fight, it wont end well. When Jianyunes back this evening, Ill ask him to go visit his uncles ce, Su Danhong said indifferently.


    Truthfully, she had already thought about these things when they took over the orchard.


    They were not sessful with the orchard when it was in their own hands, but it was sessful in someone elses hands. With the way Aunt Li was, how could she not have her own opinions?


    But she could just keep her opinions to herself. If she wanted to spread nder everywhere, then Su Danhong wouldnt respond positively!<hr>
