Chapter 8

Seeing her second brother’s wife’s expression, the eldest brother also understood the situation and hurriedly pulled his mother and second brother away from his third brother’s house.

The Ji family had already been to the police station, and if they fought again and called the police again, their family would be completely famous!

“We, the second family, will not interfere with the third family’s matters!” Although the second brother’s wife was a housewife, she was particularly tough when it came to matters concerning her children.

The second brother also blamed his third brother for being untrustworthy, so he remained silent and did not refute his wife’s words.

However, the old lady Ji, who had always favored her youngest son, directly scolded the second brother’s wife, calling her a troublemaker who stirred up trouble between brothers. The eldest brother had to step in to comfort her, saying that he had to work overtime tomorrow, before he could persuade his mother to go back.

Each of them held a stomach full of resentment.

After the Ji family left, Ji Wanqing got up leisurely and naturally instructed, “Dad, go to the coal shop and buy some coal. We’re out of coal. Xiaorou, go boil some water, a lot of it, I want to take a bath. Aunt Su, go tidy up the bedsheets on the floor in my room. By the way, wash the bedsheets tomorrow, don’t disturb me when I sleep tonight.”

Ji Jian Guo and Su Xiu were both shocked to look over, only Ji Xiaorou got up obediently to boil water.

Compared to carrying coal and washing bedsheets, boiling water was already a light task.

“You, you still want to order me around?” Ji Jian Guo had been the head of the family for so long, even his youngest son dared not act up in front of him!

Ji Wanqing took out five yuan and handed it over, “Dad, how can this be called ordering you around? You are the pillar of our family, how can you refuse such a small matter?”

If Ji Wanqing hadn’t been holding a belt in her left hand and waving it around, Ji Jian Guo would have definitely fought back.

But the wounds on his body were still aching, so he could only grudgingly accept the five yuan. He was about to take the money and take his son out for a good meal when he heard Ji Wanqing say softly behind him, “I know the price of coal very well, if anyone wants to take my money and not do their job, I will let them know what hurts more than a red-hot iron tongs on their body.”

“…” Ji Jian Guo felt a chill down his spine and went out with gritted teeth.

Tomorrow, he must come up with a good plan to expose Ji Wanqing’s unfilial behavior of beating and enslaving her own father to the street committee and the neighbors! Let them arrest this little beast and put her in jail!

And the money!

More than five thousand yuan, and his gold fish!

He must get it all back!

Since the head of the family had to compromise, Su Xiu could only be careful and tidy up Ji Wanqing’s room.

The daughter’s bed sheets and pillowcases were all thrown on the floor, the light pink silk four-piece set on the bed made Su Xiu’s eyes widen!

This, this must have cost a fortune! It was all her money!

Ji Wanqing didn’t care about her complicated and rich psychological activities, “Aunt Su, pull the thin cotton quilt under the bed out too, I don’t have the habit of letting people sleep under my bed.”

Su Xiu dryly smiled and responded, knowing that Ji Wanqing was watching from behind, she tidied up quickly, not daring to look at the room’s furnishings again, secretly guessing where the little vixen could have hidden the money…

While the adults in the family were busy, Ji Xinbao, a pure coward who bullied the weak and feared the strong, immediately flattered Ji Wanqing, “Second Sister, I caught my sister slacking off in the kitchen!”

“Oh?” Ji Wanqing looked over leisurely, Ji Xiaorou immediately picked up a towel and wiped the stove meticulously.

“Good girl, have some candy.” Ji Wanqing patted Ji Xinbao’s head affectionately and took out a fruit candy and handed it to her.

This fruit candy was truly made of fruit, shaped like a slice of orange!

Ji Xinbao looked at it curiously, and after receiving it, she couldn’t wait to put it in her mouth. It was sour and sweet, delicious!

She wasn’t a big fan of candy, except for the occasional chocolate or Snickers bar to fill her stomach, she hardly touched the candies she had collected from the supermarket.

Ji Wanqing smiled and instigated, “Remember to help me supervise Aunt Su and Xiaorou, if they behave well, there will be more candy.”

Ji Xinbao nodded heavily, indicating that she would definitely complete the task.

The five yuan worth of coal was enough for the family to burn for two or three months. Ji Jian Guo panted and carried the black coal up, his forehead covered in sweat.

While Ji Wanqing had already taken a bath, changed into her pajamas, and was sitting in his favorite spot, reading a newspaper.

He had been busy for so long, he hadn’t even had time to eat dinner after work, and he had gone to his eldest brother’s house to get help to teach the vixen a lesson.

Even though he had eaten a lot in the factory canteen at noon, he had exhausted his energy after doing manual labor.

“Xiuxiu, is dinner ready?”

Su Xiu was busy mopping the floor and cleaning the room, she was also starving, but in front of the demon, she could only tearfully shake her head.

Ji Jian Guo’s face looked bad, after suffering so many hardships and lessons, he finally decided to speak to Ji Wanqing properly.

“Wanqing, it’s not safe for a girl like you to have so much money. Now that you’ve vented your anger, Dad knows he was wrong, let’s be a good family and live a good life, don’t make trouble anymore.”

Ji Wanqing put down the newspaper and smiled, “Dad, you’re being suspicious. Look at you and Aunt Su, you can’t carry anything, you can’t even beat me, what if you encounter a robber, they would knock you down in two or three moves, how can I be at ease leaving the money with you?”

Ji Jian Guo’s face turned ugly, he had to persuade her, “But Dad is the head of the family after all, if I don’t have any money to go out and ask people to do things, I can’t even afford a meal or a pack of cigarettes, how can I make big money to give you a rich and leisurely life?”

Ji Wanqing looked serious, “What are you saying, Dad! Our society severely punishes bribery! Do you mean that you can get someone to do something for you legally and legitimately, and they won’t accept a little bribe and refuse to serve the people?”

Ji Jian Guo was also flustered when the big hat was put on him, “Don’t talk nonsense! That’s not bribery! It’s just ordinary interpersonal relationships between colleagues, it’s impossible to just eat people’s food, I can’t eat and drink for free without treating them to a meal!”

Ji Wanqing said earnestly, “Dad, you’re so old, why are you still trying to keep up with young people and compare? Besides, it’s their willingness to treat you to a meal, you can eat your fill outside, and you can also save the family’s food, how good is that! Why spend that extra money to treat them to a meal?”

This was the famous saying that the old lady Ji used to boast about her children taking advantage of others outside, Ji Wanqing learned it perfectly, making Ji Jian Guo speechless.

“Okay, Dad, I’m not a stingy head of the family.” Ji Wanqing pointed to the corner of the wall, “Look, that half bag of coarse flour is your food for the next two days, I’ve also left some pickles in the kitchen cabinet for you to eat with the bread. How about it, I’m thoughtful, right?”

After giving the instructions, Ji Wanqing yawned and went back to her room to rest, making Ji Jian Guo so angry that his mouth was crooked and his eyes were slanted, he almost fainted!

She, a married daughter, is now the head of the family!

Why doesn’t she just go to heaven!
