Chapter 9

On top of that, all the valuable things in the house had been taken by that little vixen, and the four of them couldn’t even afford a single penny!

Ji Jian Guo was full of resentment that he couldn’t vent, but he dared not do anything to Ji Wanqing anymore, his mind and eyes were all focused on how to torment this vixen later!

When they were really too hungry, Ji Jian Guo had to arrange for Su Xiu and Ji Xiaorou to steam coarse flour bread, filling their stomachs with resentment.

If only they had eaten at his eldest brother’s house before coming back!

The next day.

Ji Wanqing went out and spent four cents to buy eight pounds of pig’s head meat.

This stuff was all big and small tumors and lymph nodes, even harder to sell than pig offal, butchers would grind it up and feed it to chickens, ducks, and geese, ordinary people wouldn’t eat this.

But Ji Wanqing knew that there was a piece of fat and lean “golden six ounces” in the pig’s head meat, also called pork neck meat, or tenderloin, which was the best ingredient for grilling!

And “golden six ounces”, as the name suggests, there are at most six ounces on a pig, and in the future, it will sell for the same price as tenderloin!

Ji Wanqing bought the meat back and cut it, eight pounds of pig’s head meat was from two pigs, she only sliced off nine ounces of tenderloin.

Honestly, this marbled fat and lean, was no different from the fat content of M3 Wagyu.

Ji Wanqing followed the recipe and made a green pepper stir-fry, she was surprised to find that this meat, besides being suitable for grilling, was actually crispy and bouncy when stir-fried! The taste was amazing!

After lunch, she went to the state-owned market immediately, and the pork stall had just sold out of pork, even the pig offal was sold out, leaving only some unwanted pig’s head meat.

Ji Wanqing bought a whole bag, and sliced off another two pounds of tenderloin.

Thinking that this stuff didn’t need tickets anyway, it was cheap and delicious, Ji Wanqing simply discussed with Zhang, the butcher at the state-owned market, to save the pig’s head meat for her every day.

This meat in Zhang’s hands was just a bonus, either given to customers who bought pork to feed their cats and dogs, or sold to breeding farms to feed chickens, ducks, and geese.

It was better to sell it to the little girl, she could earn an extra two yuan a day!

Steel Mill.

As soon as Ji Jian Guo got off work, he went straight to the street office, asking them to come to his house at seven o’clock that evening to mediate the conflict.

The street office was puzzled, but 3-2 in Building 4 of the Steel Mill’s family housing was the one where the police had come to say hello yesterday, they said they would definitely come.

Ji Wanqing put the meat into her space, looking at the two pounds of tenderloin and thirty pounds of lymph meat, she fell into deep thought.

Thinking that there would be so much lymph meat piled up every day, even though her space was big enough to hold it, it was still annoying to look at.

Looking at the one-acre plot in front of the small villa, Ji Wanqing decided to go to the library and look for books on pig manure composting, and use this piece of land by the way.

In the past, she had been running for her life in the apocalypse and had no time to farm, now she had nothing to do every day, plus the supplies in the 1970s were really too scarce!

There were only some ordinary vegetables on the market, such as potatoes, corn, winter melon, and Chinese cabbage, even cucumbers, eggplants, and beans were seasonal, let alone okra, broccoli, bok choy, and lotus root, which were very uncommon in the 1970s.

Ji Wanqing wanted to take good care of herself, of course, she needed a balanced diet of meat and vegetables!

With a plan in mind, Ji Wanqing took out the book and flipped through it, and there was actually a way to compost pig manure.

Only compared to fruits and vegetables, which could be buried directly in the soil and wait for microorganisms to decompose, pork needed an extra step of initial processing, otherwise, burying it directly in the soil would attract flies, mosquitoes, and maggots.

Ji Wanqing carefully read it once, memorized the steps, and planned to go to the carpenter to buy wood chips tomorrow!

Besides wood chips, you can also use straw, branches, and ash, these inorganic substances are used to neutralize the moisture in the pork, and after natural decomposition, they can be used.

It should be noted that pork, as organic fertilizer, should not be used excessively, excessive use will make the soil lose balance and breed bacteria.

“Wanqing! Open the door, let’s talk, you and I.” Ji Jian Guo’s knocking sound came from outside the door.

Ji Wanqing came out of the space and opened the door, “What’s the matter?”

Ji Jian Guo looked like a smiling tiger, “Wanqing, you’re young and haven’t experienced much, how can I, your father, leave the responsibility of the head of the family to you and be a hands-off boss myself?”

Ji Wanqing went to the living room and sat down, the weather in June was already a bit hot, “Aunt Su, go wash the fan, and move it to my room later.”

Su Xiu hesitated and looked at Ji Jian Guo, she went with tears in her eyes under Ji Jian Guo’s gaze.

“Wanqing, I know you don’t like Aunt Su, but she has been with your father for so many years, and she gave birth to your brother, she has no merit, but she has hardship in our old Ji family!”

Ji Jian Guo swore, “Don’t worry, it was my fault that I listened to rumors and ignored your feelings. From now on, in this family, I will be absolutely fair and just, and I will not let you suffer any more grievances!”

What a righteous statement.

So, all the wrongs that the original owner suffered in the past two years are just gone like that?

Ji Wanqing smiled faintly, “Dad, I’ve never felt wronged. You tell me, what grievances have I suffered?”

Ji Jian Guo was speechless, he chuckled, “No matter what grievances you have, Dad will favor you more in the future, and let you live comfortably in your parents’ home before you get married.”

Is he trying to control her with marriage?

Ji Wanqing’s expression remained unchanged, “Dad also said that I, a daughter who has been married off, will eventually marry out, Dad, you still have decades to be the head of the family, why can’t I sit in this position for the past two years?”

Since soft words didn’t work, Ji Jian Guo glanced at the time, his face gradually darkened, “Ji Wanqing, go and see other families, whose parents are still alive, and the daughter is the head of the family?”

Ji Wanqing was surprised, “Dad also said it’s other families! Does every family have to be the same, unchanging?”

“You!”

Ji Jian Guo was furious, he shouted, “I don’t care! You must return the money now! And the things in my room and your Aunt Su’s room! Why does a little girl like you have so much money?”

Ji Wanqing remained unmoved, “There’s never too much money in hand, Dad, when you were keeping it for me before, you didn’t have so many hypocritical words.”

Seeing that it was almost seven o’clock, Ji Jian Guo openly challenged, “Ji Wanqing, return the money quickly! Otherwise, you get out of this house!”

Honestly, Ji Wanqing had been living a pretty comfortable life since she came here.

She ate and drank well every day, didn’t have to do housework, and if she was in a bad mood, she had someone to be a punching bag for her anger.

No wonder those men who couldn’t make money and were bullies at home, liked to be the head of the family so much.

She had only been the head of the family for three days, and she was already in love with it.

Ji Wanqing said leisurely, “Kick me out? That’s not going to happen, I remember this house was one of the compensations the factory gave after my mother passed away, right? I have half of it anyway, if you want to kick me out, first give me three hundred to buy it off.”
