Chapter 245 Chen Shuning came to Ji Xue's house and angrily scolded the old lady
Ji Xue put the fried celery on the table, untied her apron, and hung it on the clothes hanger.
"Jiaxing, you have to go back tomorrow and pick up Shuning and Jiawang. The exam is the day after tomorrow, and many students came to the supply and marketing cooperative today to take the exam.
People are alert and come early. Don't let Shu Ning and the others get up so early the day after tomorrow, it's too rushed. If they don't get enough sleep in the morning, they will definitely feel sleepy during the exam. "
Chen Jiawang set the table and replied with a smile, "Well, I'll listen to you! My brother and sister are lucky to have such a reasonable sister-in-law like you. Hehe..."
Ji Xue slapped Chen Jiawang lightly and said with a sweet smile, "You only know how to make me happy."
Chen Jiawang took out a box from his briefcase, placed it in front of Ji Xue, and urged, "Open it and take a look."
"What is this? It's so mysterious..." Ji Xue smiled and picked up the box. After opening it, she laughed out loud: "This, this is a gold necklace? Am I seeing things right?"
"You're right! A gold necklace. It couldn't be more genuine." Chen Jiawang said proudly, "I saw that women in the south all love wearing this, so I went out of my way to buy it for you."
Ji Xue didn't care about eating anymore. She picked up the gold necklace and put it on her neck. She ran into the house, took out a mirror, and looked at herself happily: "It looks so beautiful! Jiawang, this is very expensive, right?"
"This gold necklace is not heavy, not expensive." Chen Jiawang took out a wad of change from his briefcase and handed it to Ji Xue: "I paid off my uncle's debt today.
Here are the remaining flowers. Xiaoxue, from today on, our family will be debt-free."
"Really?" Ji Xue's eyes sparkled with tears. She put away the money and sat back down at the table. "Jiaxing, that's great. We don't owe anyone anything anymore."
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Chen Jiaxing's face. "Xiaoxue, I'll slowly make up for what I promised you when we got married. But... if Xiaoxue and Jiawang go to college..."
"Stop! Are you talking about giving Xiaoxue and Jiawang some money?" Ji Xue said calmly, "My brothers and sisters aren't greedy people. I have no objection to you giving them some money."
Ji Xue knew the character of Chen Jiawang and Chen Shuning. If they became successful in the future, they would definitely come back to help the couple.
"Anyway, we don't have any foreign debts." Ji Xue said with a smile, "My parents will definitely give Shuning and Jiawang living expenses. Even if we help them out, it won't cost much.
We're both regular employees, earning salaries, and you can even make a small profit from driving a bus. I saw on the news that colleges are starting in the fall, and that's still more than two months away!"
After more than two months, Ji Xue and Chen Jiawang were able to save some money, so even if they helped their younger siblings, they would not go hungry.
"Xiaoxue, thank you!" Chen Jiaxing said solemnly, "Of course, I can't just support Shuning and Jiawang. Go buy some things and bring them home tomorrow.
The last time we went back, I saw Dad was always coughing and Mom was always complaining about leg pain. Don't take it lightly. Take them to the hospital sometime."
After Chen Jiaxing and Ji Xue got married, their parents-in-law had been giving them a lot of money. Now that Chen Jiaxing had turned things around, it was impossible for him to treat the old couple badly.
"Boom boom boom——"
A sudden knock on the door interrupted the conversation between Ji Xue and Chen Jiaxing.
"Sister-in-law, are you home?"
Ji Xue stood up hurriedly, her tone revealing surprise, and ordered, "Shuning is here! Hurry up, Jiaxing, go cook two more dishes."
Ji Xue opened the door and was surprised to see four people standing in the yard. She knew Wang Na and Ma Lanzhi, but she didn't know how they came here.
Chen Shuning said somewhat frustratedly, "Sister-in-law, we came into the city together. This afternoon, my second brother and I have been helping Lanzhi and Wang Na find a guesthouse, but we couldn't find one..."
Ji Xue took a step back and said enthusiastically, "Haven't you eaten yet? Come in and eat first. We can talk about other things after dinner."
Ma Lanzhi waved her hands hurriedly: "Sister-in-law, we won't eat. Nana and I came here to ask if there is anyone we can stay with. We'll pay for it."
"We have to eat first!" Ji Xue came over and pulled Ma Lanzhi and Wang Na in directly. "Don't worry, I'll ask you after we've eaten."
As soon as Chen Shuning walked in, he saw his elder brother wearing an apron and cutting vegetables, so he hurried over to help.
"Brother, let me do it!"
Chen Jiaxing glanced back at her and said with a smile, "What are you doing here? Your hands are for writing, so just sit still!"
Chen Jiawang washed his hands, bent down to take out the dishes and chopsticks from the cupboard, and found a stool from the corner and placed them in place.
"Brother, sister-in-law, I'm exhausted today." Chen Jiawang said listlessly, "I didn't find the house, and I also met a strange woman.
Luckily, we were so many and reacted quickly. We ran away as soon as we heard something was wrong. "Sister-in-law, you should also be more careful when you go to and from get off work."
Ji Xue poured a glass of water and handed it to Ma Lanzhi, smiling and saying, "Don't worry about me. I have companions to go to and from get off work. Did I scare you today?"
Wang Na took the cup of water and said with some fear, "I was really scared. Sister-in-law, it's a good thing Shuning and Jiawang were smart, otherwise... with my brain, I would definitely be fooled."
"You don't interact with strangers very often." Ji Xue poured another glass of water, handed it to Chen Jiawang, and said, "Just go out more often."
Chen Jiaxing put the cooked dishes on the table and picked up a few potatoes. Ma Lanzhi hurriedly stopped him: "Brother, these two dishes are enough. Don't make more. It's too expensive."
No one's family is rich, and Ma Lanzhi is not so shameless as to feel at ease eating and drinking for free.
Wang Na nodded in agreement, "That's enough. Lanzhi and I don't eat much."
Ji Xue wasn't one to brag, so she said, "Jiaxing, go get some steamed buns. I've steamed quite a few, and they're all in the pot in the yard!"
"I'll go!" Chen Shuning picked up the bamboo basket on the table and walked out.
Chen Jiaxing and Ji Xue lived in a small courtyard with only two or three families living in it, so it was quite quiet.
Chen Shuning lifted the lid of the pot, looked at the steaming steamed buns, and picked up the steamed buns with chopsticks.
An old lady came out of the next room, and when she saw Chen Shuning, she curled her lips and said disdainfully, "Hey, whose poor relative is this? He only knows how to take advantage of others in the city."
Without even looking up, Chen Shuning said sarcastically, "Your second aunt's seventh uncle's poor relative, what's wrong? No one comes to see you, are you jealous?"
"Who are you scolding?" The old lady tried to open her eyes wide, pointed at Chen Shuning and scolded: "You uneducated thing!"
"You have good manners." Chen Shuning straightened up and said sarcastically, "Is that how your mother taught you? You have to bite every passerby you see?"
The old lady squinted her eyes and carefully identified him with the light from the room: "Chen, Chen Shuning?"
"It's me." Chen Shuning asked, hands on his hips, "What's wrong? Is your old problem coming back again?"
"No, no..."
After saying that, the old lady leaned on her crutches, pushed open the door and ran into the house, her steps were so fast.
Chen Shuning was standing in the yard when he heard the old lady in the house shouting, "Oh my god, Ji Xue's sister-in-law next door is here again? That damn guy invited her here..."
"Old lady, let me tell you, if you dare to make trouble, I will stay here and not leave!"
There was dead silence in the next room.
Chen Shuning pushed open the door and walked into the house. He looked up and saw Ji Xue's half-smiley eyes. Ji Xue asked, "Did the old lady next door bother you again?"
