Chapter 229: Gifts and Discounts
When Ji Jianyun came back, there were naturally many people waiting. Everyone in the village knew that the couple had gone to the capital.
Ji Jianyun was very generous. He showed them a lot of photos, from standing in front of the police station to the Great Wall, and more. This amazed the villagers.
The capital was where people in the entire country yearned to go.
Su Danhong took out a pack of white rabbit milk candy and shared thema few for each person to try. After hearing Ji Jianyun talk a lot about going to the Forbidden City, she happily went back.
Here you two, share it with your friends, Su Danhong said and gave Renren a pack of lard candy.
The children had many friends in the village. After going on vacation, they naturally wanted to bring them some delicious food.
This lard candy was very delicious, Su Danhong liked to eat it too.
Yan'er, go with them and share with your little friends, Su Danhong said.
So, Renren, Qiqi and Yan'er went out together, and shared candy with their friends.
Seeing that Mother Ji was about to take some photos up the mountain with a smile, Su Danhong called to stop her, Mother, come here, I bought you something."
Mother Ji was in a very good mood at this time. Her son, daughter-in-law and two grandchildren had gone to the capital and her friends were all envious.
When a person reached this age, and even though new experiences were hard to do, it was enough if the children and grandchildren were happy and safe. They were very pleased if the children and grandchildren grew up well.
There is no need to buy something for me, as long as you have fun, Mother Ji said. Thats what she said, but she went over.
Su Danhong handed her the gold earrings and said with a smile, Mother, see if you like these earrings.
Seeing this, Mother Ji quickly asked, Why would you buy something so expensive?
Just wear what I buy. I also bought a pair for my mother, Su Danhong said. She then opened another red bag. It was her mother's earrings, and it was a different style from Mother Jis pair.
She bought it for her mother-in-law and her mother out of the blue.
It was a lot of money, wasnt it? Mother Ji picked it up after hearing her. The old lady liked it more and more. There was no special reason for it. These gold earrings were real gold, and the earrings weighed about five grams.
The price of gold was not low now. It was more than 75 yuan per gram. It might be even more expensive in the capital. The earrings were so beautiful.
Don't ask how much it is, just take it for yourself, Su Danhong said.
The price of gold in the capital was higher, 85 yuan per gram. The earrings were five grams. The value was there, and it was true for her mother's earrings.
She didnt have a lot of jewelry. There was the golden lotus seeds shaped jewelry, the gold earrings and the gold rings that Ji Jianyun bought for her. She would never take them out. The thick ones were all real gold, but it was really tacky.
In Ji Jianyun's eyes, that was royalty.
She couldnt enjoy this extravagance anymore, but she wore the Hetian jade bracelet that she really liked.
The other Hetian jade pieces like the pendants, cups, and hairpins were all excellent quality. She collected them and stored them in the cabinet. It was good enough to take them out to have a look when she had time.
Su Danhong took out two more pipes and said, These are two old pipes I bought for father, they are new from the capital.
"Who cares about him, he doesn't smoke now," Mother Ji said quickly.
These two pipes look like high quality goods.
Mother, take it to father. He will be happy to see it. As long as father is happy, it will be worth it, Su Danhong said.
When Mother Ji finally went up the mountain, she brought a lot of things up, including the lard candy, milk candy, and a Peking duck.
When Ji Jianyun came back, the permanent workers under him also got things. Although they didn't get Peking roast duck like his parents, a pack of white rabbit candy for the whole family made everyone happy.
Although the lives of each family had improved a lot in the past two or three years, everyone still lived very frugally. Because Ji Jianyun Su Danhong came back from a trip with the candy, the children in the village were all celebrating like it was the New Year.
Uncle, when are you going to kill the pigs? Should I gather the pigs for you? Ji Feng said when he came over.
Su Danhong had brought a pack of white rabbit candy over to him, but this kid wanted to work.
Soon, I'll call you in a few days, Ji Jianyun said.
Then he drove out to deliver roast duck to his mother-in-law's family, as well as things to other relatives and friends.
This time he brought a lot of things back, but he didn't have much left to share. It was typical to go to the old capital and bring speciality products back to share.
Ji Yunyun got something too.
Mother didn't come to see you because I was busy and forgot to tell her. There was no need to explain, but Ji Jianyun still said something.
Third brother, you dont think about me anymore, how can you forget about me?! Ji Yunyun shouted. Li Zhi knew this would happen.
Ji Jianyun didn't care how she reacted. If it wasnt for the roast duck, he would have left.
Ji Yunyun saw that he didn't continue to get things out of his car, so she questioned, Third brother, didn't you bring me some chickens?
This was just heard by Li Zhi who had rushed back. His face froze, he felt very ashamed.
Third brother, don't listen to her, are you back today? Go in and have a cup of tea before leaving, Li Zhi said.
It's nothing, I still have to send a roast duck to Lao Qin. He and I used to be comrades. He lives next to the market. You can get there in about ten minutes. If you want groceries, you can buy it there. The chickens and eggs are all from my mountain. Ji Jianyun patted him on the shoulder.
Okay! Li Zhi nodded.
Li Zhi sent him away, and he didn't go back home. He went back to the office, but he felt very uncomfortable, extremely uncomfortable.
It was not about how Ji Jianyun gave him a Peking roast duck, but about his wife. He didnt understand. Everything about his father-in-law's side of the family was good, so why was his wife so manipulative?
Could it be that he couldn't support her well, so he made her miss her maternal family all the time?
Moving on from there, Lao Qin got the Peking duck and was very happy, When we were in the same team, you heard that idiot from the capital brag about it, and now youre giving me one.
You should find some time with sister-in-law to visit, Ji Jianyun said with a smile.
Although it was quite tiring, taking a vacation really changed Ji Jianyuns mood. Before he left, he told Lao Qin about Li Zhi, and asked him to give Li Zhi a discount and he will pay the difference.
But Lao Qin didn't mind. He told him it was nothing. When Li Zhi came by, he would sell things to Li Zhi at the price he purchased at.
