Chapter 156
In the evening, Ji Keji came back from the academy.

As soon as he stepped into the back street of the academy, a figure jumped out.

Ji Keji originally thought it was his junior sister, so the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up.

However, after a moment, his smile became stiff: "Aweng?"

Why is this old rogue here?

Could it be that the junior sister guessed it?
A few days ago, my junior sister also said that "the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop".

Ji Keji was smart, and the key was that he knew enough about the people in the old house.

He knew very well that the junior sister was alluding to their relationship with the old house.

My life is getting better and better, and the people in the old house will definitely not be too settled.

That is a group of scoundrels who harm others without benefiting themselves.

Seeing that people who were not as good as themselves have a better life than themselves, they will only be jealous and try to make things worse.

And old man Ji, that is a greedy and selfish old bastard.

Well, he couldn't scold his direct grandfather like that, it was against filial piety.

However, the sage also said, "The father is kind and the son is filial."

If the elders are not loving, but come to force the filial piety of the children and grandchildren, this is not a rogue.

However, my grandfather is a famous old rascal, and the reasoning doesn't make any sense at all.

Ji Keji cursed in his heart, with a cold look on his face.

Old Man Ji didn't seem to notice. He looked around to make sure there was no one around, then lowered his voice and said, "Xiao Shiro, I will go to your house tomorrow to ask for pension funds."

"I can't help it either. Although your family has been separated, your father is my son and you are my grandson, so you must be filial to me!"

"Oh, five sons, if I indulge your family, your uncle and the others will not be happy!"

Old Man Ji didn't say that he was forced to come here by his sons.

But he informed the news in advance and had a sad and embarrassed look on his face, all indicating: I didn't mean to cause trouble, I actually have other sons.

As an elder, you must have a bowl of water.

Ji Keji: ...Hehe, you still have the nerve to say "serve the water".

You never leveled that bowl of water.

However, being as clever as Ji and restraining himself, he heard the reminder and helplessness from the rogue grandfather, but also a faint "threat".

After the family is divided, the children and grandchildren are also children and grandchildren, and they must be filial.

Ji Keji is no longer a young apprentice in a printing shop. He has studied and will take part in the imperial examination in the future. There must be no flaws in his reputation!
It's really not something he can let go of his grandfather and the best things in the old house if he wants to.

Alas, why can't my relatives be as kind as the Zhao family's relatives?

Look at my uncle, he brings firewood, vegetables, etc. to Zhao Dalang every two or three days.

It's fine to do the rough work by yourself, and send the sons and daughters of the family to take care of the orphans and widows.

It can be said that the Zhao family is a model of the "five good families" in the county.

Brothers love each other, sisters-in-law are close, elders are loving, sons and daughters are filial, taking care of chaste wives... In a few years, maybe the county officials will write inscriptions to the Zhao family.

On the other hand, my grandfather is an old rascal, my uncles are jackals, and my cousins ​​are even more difficult to describe!

The only gratifying thing is that parents are no longer confused and begin to know how to love their children.

And Mr. Zheng and Junior Junior Sister are the lights in his life!

"...Xiao Shiro, you have to prepare in advance, you must deal with it well! I'm leaving, if I don't leave, I will be seen by others!"

"Xiao Shiro, you are a good person. I am happy to see you succeed!"

Old man Ji didn't seem to feel Ji Keji's repulsion, he babbled a lot, and then left.

As soon as old man Ji left, Zheng Wanjun greeted him.

She almost missed old man Ji.

"Brother Katsuragi, is that your Aweng?"

Zheng Wanjun was already very familiar with Ji Keji, and his title changed from "Little Silang" to Ji Keji's brother.

Ji Keji is Mr. Zheng's personal disciple, and Zheng Wanjun is his junior sister.

Calling Ji Keji "brother" is reasonable, not out of the ordinary.

If Wan Niangzi heard it, she wouldn't be too harsh.

"Yeah!" Ji Keji responded, unwilling to mention this scoundrel grandfather.

"What is he here for? Does he want to ask you for money?"

The best thing, is to see other people getting better, they will rush to suck blood, completely disregarding the past grievances!
A look of disgust flashed in Zheng Wanjun's eyes.

Ji Keji pursed his lips.

"no!"

He seemed to want to prove something, so he didn't hide anything from Zheng Wanjun and said everything Old Man Ji said.

"Eh? Your Aweng has changed his gender? You actually secretly tipped off the news?"

Ji Keji: ...I'm confused too.

Zheng Wanjun thought about it seriously, then sneered, "So that's how it is!"

Ji Keji looked up at Zheng Wanjun.

Zheng Wanjun said disdainfully, "Brother Keji, you are such a smart man."

"Bet on both sides, don't offend each other."

"Obviously he also wants to blackmail you, the third bedroom, but he still pretends to be helpless."

"He, this is an advance arrangement."

"If you have a future, he will be able to come over and say, I feel sorry for you, otherwise I wouldn't have tipped you off."

Old man Ji is an elder, so he bowed down and apologized to the younger generation.

Moreover, he did "tip the news", as a junior, he should be forgiven magnanimously.

Why?
The villain has done so much evil, but just because of a small kindness, can the grievances be wiped out?

Not all mistakes can be solved with a "sorry".

How miserable was the third member of the Ji family who was bullied?

If my father hadn't been kind-hearted, the third family of the Ji family would have been ruined from the moment Ji Sanlang's leg was broken.

At that time, instead of showing any kindness to Ji Sanlang's family, old man Ji personally decided to drive them out of the house.

Now that the third family of the Ji family is living well, and Xiao Silang has a future, Old Man Ji has come to pretend to be some kind of loving elder.

Ridiculous or not?
Ji Keji saw that Zheng Wanjun's pretty face was flushed with anger, and he knew that Zheng Wanjun felt sorry for him and defended himself.

His heart was warm.

"Okay, don't be angry! Don't worry, I'm not stupid. I'm not a saint, and I can't repay grievances with virtue."

Grandfather is indeed playing tricks, he should be just like what my junior sister said.

Ji Keji is not stupid, of course he knows this.

However, the word filial piety cannot be avoided.

Even if he knew that old man Ji would come to make trouble at home tomorrow, he couldn't think of a better way than giving money.

"Why is there no good way?"

Zheng Wanjun smiled playfully.

To deal with rascals, we must use rascal methods.

This is the so-called "defeating magic with magic".

The next day, Old Man Ji led a group of people to the house that Sanlang Ji rented on College Front Street.

This courtyard is just across from the academy.

Therefore, the arrival of Old Man Ji and his entourage aroused the attention of passing students and teachers.

Some people who loved watching the fun couldn't help but gathered around.

"Third, come out!"

"You unfilial son, our father is here, why don't you come out to greet him?"

"Hmph, I know that the third child is a white-eyed wolf! After the family is separated, I don't care about my parents!"

"Third brother, if you don't come out, we'll go to the academy to find Xiao Shiro—"

Maybe it was too noisy, or maybe the last sentence was too lethal.

The door to the small courtyard finally opened.

However, the one who opened the door was not Ji Sanlang who had just recovered from his injury, nor Ji San's wife, but Ji Keji who was about to go out.

"Aunt! Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle Fifth!"

When he saw a group of people at the door, Ji Keji looked calm and politely saluted and said hello.

"Where's your dad? Let him come out!"

Ji Dalang jumped out and shouted.

"My father is recovering from his injury, but the family is short of money, so he went to work."

Ji Keji replied neither happy nor angry.

However, this sentence still made Ji Dalang feel a little uncomfortable.

Ahem, the third child's legs were indeed broken because of him.

"Lack of money? Doesn't it mean that your family has made a lot of money? Look at you, you are all wearing brand new clothes."

Ji Erlang took over from his elder brother and got mad at Ji Keji.

He also produced "evidence".

Ji Keji lowered his head, looked at the moon-white robe made by his wife, and said calmly: "My wife gave this to me!"

The two sons were defeated one after another, so Old Man Ji had to take action personally, "Xiao Silang, we are a family. It was Aweng who was confused before, so he separated you."

"Since my family is short of money, I might as well move back here."

This is Old Man Ji's main purpose.

After yesterday's farce, old man Ji felt that Sanfang was still reliable.

However, old man Ji didn't want to give up the other sons either.

Therefore, it is best to live together.

"Are you a family?"

This time, before Ji Keji could respond, Zheng Wanjun jumped out.

"This is really good!"

Zheng Wanjun's delicate and white face was full of "surprise", and he stretched out a fair and pink hand and said, "Give me some money."

"What?" Old Man Ji and his son were all stunned.

Why do you have to give money?

"Didn't you say that Ji Sanlang and Ji Sanlang's family are our own family? Ji Sanlang owes my aunt's rent. It's been less than half a year. It's a total of five taels of silver."

"There is also Ji Sanlang's medical expenses, which cost a full six taels of silver."

"And Mrs. Gu from the back street also borrowed money, fifty taels!"

"Oh, by the way, there's also Aunt Zhou. She borrowed food, which cost at least one tael of silver."

"And Aunt Wu, Aunt Xu, Uncle Liu..."

Zheng Wanjun counted a lot of things with mixed feelings, and then calculated the total ledger, "Ji Sanlang's family owes the neighbors a total of 26 taels of silver."

"In the past, the neighbors thought that Ji Sanlang was a separate family, but now they know that he still has relatives."

"Even so, let's pay it back."

Zheng Wanjun's meaning is very clear. If the people in Ji's old house want to steal the blood of Ji Sanlang's family, they must first pay back the money for Ji Sanlang's family.

In fact, the money had already been paid off when Ji Keji and Mr. Zheng opened a book printing workshop in partnership.

But outsiders don't know.

The people in Ji's old house didn't know.

Besides, if the debt is owed or not, as long as both parties are killed, no one else can be sure.

Ji Dalang hurriedly cleared the relationship, "No! We are not a family! We have separated our families long ago. Ji Sanlang owes a debt, let him pay it back!"

Damn, I thought the third child's family was well-off, but I didn't expect it to be glazed with donkey dung!
