Chapter 134: Teaching Su Jinjun to Strengthen His Martial Arts!

Su Danhong did not realize how much the news of her and her husband’s decision affected her maternal family.

After the seventh day of the New Year, it was time to start working again. In fact, Ji Hongjun, Xu Aidang, and Ji Jianchuan, the cousin from Uncle Ji’s family, had all gone to work on New Years without any pay because they were willing to do it.

This time, the three long-term workers, including Ji Jianchuan, received New Year goods.

One jin of brown sugar, two jin of melon seeds, two jin of eggs from the chickens on the mountain, and four jin of fatty pork belly.

One portion for each of the three families. It could be said that the New Year goods were very abundant.

If the families  included the radishes and dried vegetables stored away at home, they could have a very good start to the year.

Ji Hongjun and Xu Aidang had worked for Su Danhong’s family for a few years now, so they were pretty much used to it.

However, it was Ji Jianchuan’s first time going back to work this year, and also his first time receiving this year’s goods.

In addition to his family’s current situation with how they were all helping out with the family’s orchard, they had tightened their belts. Besides pork, they were not willing to eat eggs. Instead, they saved them and sold them for some money.

His younger brother, Ji Jianhe, had not separated yet, but Ji Jianchuan had a long time ago. Now he and his own family lived by themselves. His family’s circumstances were not as tight anymore. It meant that after he went to work for Ji Jianyun, their lives gradually stabilized.

This meant that he had a stable life. As for his family’s orchard, which he had been working on with his parents, it had wasted his family’s savings, so he stopped working there. He didn’t want it, and gave it to his parents and his brother.

He decided to work hard as a long-term worker, manage his own fields, and let his wife and children live a stable life.

Also, because he went to work for Ji Jianyun, he could earn more than 20 yuan a month. This really alleviated the situation at home. Additionally, Ji Jianyun’s wife had given them a gift for the New Year, so his wife and children at home were very happy.

For the New Year celebrations this year, the things he took home for his family really allowed them to have a rich celebration.

One jin of brown sugar, two jin of melon seeds to snack on, and two jin of eggs. The eggs were really good. Most of them had two yolks. Most importantly was the four jin of good pork belly!

He carried all of this home. Of course, he could not eat all these things alone, but he kept most of it. He took a jin of melon seeds and a jin of pork belly to his parents, and he still had a lot remaining.

The whole family was elated, and Ji Jianchuan felt happy.

He thought, Let’s just live like this and stop messing around.

So as soon as he heard that Ji Hongjun and Xu Aidang didn’t take the day off during the first day of the New Year, and went to the mountain to do some work, he followed suit. He was really willing to volunteer to do the work.

What surprised the three of them even more was still to come. Later, Ji Jianyun announced that their wages had increased to 30 yuan.

The first year was 22 yuan, and the second year was 25 yuan. This time, Ji Jianyun raised it to 30 yuan.

This amount was similar to jobs in Jiangshui City. It was a high amount.

Ji Hongjun, Xu Aidang and Ji Jianchuan were naturally very happy. When others asked, they told them about it. For a while, the villagers were extremely envious.

Aside from the envious villagers, Ji Jianwen, Yun Lili and Ji Yunyun, who had not left yet, were also stunned.

After he came back from the shock, Ji Jianwen said with a smile, “Third brother is getting more and more promising now. The wage rate given to the workers is not lower than ours.”

Their current benefits were also good. Their salary had risen to 25 yuan. With the subsidies, they almost reached 30 yuan.

Since his third brother could afford to pay this, it was needless to say that he must have made a lot of money.

Otherwise, how could he pay three workers so much money every month?

Compared to Ji Jianwen’s happiness, Yun Lili and Ji Yunyun felt a little flustered and alarmed.

It was one thing to know that the orchard was making good money, and another thing for them to face the reality of it. 30 yuan a month for three workers was 90 yuan!

This was more than what she and Jianwen made combined. Was this really the salary that third brother-in-law gave to the long-term workers? How much did the third brother-in-law earn? No wonder he could buy a truck!

Ji Yunyun was a little shocked and said, “How can my third brother give them such a high salary?”

How could he? 30 yuan a month was what a lot of people’s wages were in the college town. But that was in the college town. These workers were making the same thing when it was in a rural place!

In any case, it was true that Ji Jianyun offered them that much money.

The three workers worked very hard and meticulously. Ji Jianyun didn’t think the money was wasted.

After the seventh day of the New Year, Su Jinjun arrived.

On the first day, Su Jinjun didn’t do any work. Mother Ji had talked to Ji Jianyun privately. She asked whether this would destroy the relationship between the two families.

Ji Jianyun smiled and told her not to worry. He had a solution.

Once Su Jinjun knew that he could loaf around after his first day, when he came the next day, he still acted the same.

On the third day it was the same again and he told himself he was too anxious. This was his brother-in-law, so how could he dare to do the exercises himself?

So on the fourth day, he was asked by Ji Jianyun to practice martial arts.

He was beaten to the point where he laid down on the ground and couldn’t get up for a long time.

“Eldest brother, get up and do it again. Anyway, you don’t have a lot of work to do right now. You’re slouching too much. It’s good for you to practice more.” Ji Jianyun lifted Su Jinjun up like he was a chicken.

Su Jinjun knew that he needed to sort himself out and quickly said, “No more, Jianyun. I still have a lot of work to do.”

“You don’t have to work. You’ll get your pay. I’ll practice the fists with you every day in the future,” Ji Jianyun said.

After that, he beat him up again.

But Ji Jianyun was so skilled with his moves that he didn’t know that Su Jinjun had been beaten. When Su Jinjun turned around, he told everyone that he had been beaten by Ji Jianyun, but nobody believed him.

It must have been because he was lazy. People in the village spread that around. Su Jinjun had been there for three days, but he did not work even once.

Besides, who didn’t know Su Jinjun’s reputation? Ji Jianyun was respecting his wife’s reputation and letting her brother come to work. Even if Su Jinjun didn’t value working, such a thing happened.

Everyone expected him to be fired by Ji Jianyun soon, and then there would be an empty position.

Everyone was greedy for 30 yuan!

Seeing that no one believed him, Su Jinjun could only sigh on the inside. Moreover, he was pretty depressed over it.

He thought he could get a few words of comfort when he went home, but he didn’t expect that his mother would directly criticize him, “If you dare to wrong Jianyun again in the future, just watch me break your leg with a stick!”

How is this my mother?

With that, the injured man wanted to lay in his wife’s bosom.

Eldest Su sister-in-law asked, “Did Jianyun really say that?”

“It’s true. He’s deliberately chased after me to practice making martial arts fists and he treats me like a sandbag!” ·?????*•????•???*? ??????? ??? ?????????? ??? ???? ?? ??x??????.??? ?*•????•???*??·????

Su Jinjun felt like he had found a place to whine. He was about to pour out his complaints when his wife stopped him with, “He can treat you like a sandbag if he wants to. It’s 30 yuan a month. I did my best to talk with mother. If you don’t go to work, you’ll get beaten; but if you go to work and get beaten, you’ll get money. You have to go!”

Su Jinjun thought that the world was very dark.
