Chapter 20: Parents always know their children
In a dilapidated yard.
It's a little better than the thatched house assigned to Ji Caiyan's family.
Jiang Zhaodi squatted on the ground in the yard, holding half a branch and writing and drawing on the ground.
If Ji Caiyan were here, he would be able to see that Jiang Zhaodi paints modern cosmetics and jewelry shapes.
Lipstick, powder puff, eyebrow pencil...
He was designing gouache for Ji Caiyan. His family was too poor and they had no pen, ink, paper or inkstone, so he could only draw on the ground.
"Sister, you eat..."
A skinny little boy, wearing shabby clothes full of patches, came behind Jiang Zhaodi.
Holding a piece of corn pancake in her little hand, she handed it to Jiang Zhaodi and spoke carefully.
The corn tortillas are dark, but they are the best food in this family.
"Stop talking and get out of here."
When Jiang Zhaodi saw the little boy, she immediately pushed him away with physical disgust.
Show no mercy.
Her name was Zhaodi, and the boy's name was Yaozu. They sounded different to each other.
I wish this boy was dead.
She hates everything here and hopes to complete all the tasks of capturing luck points and reach the pinnacle of life.
"Woooo..."
Jiang Yaozu was suddenly pushed to the ground by Jiang Zhaodi. The tortillas fell to the ground, and his knees and face were bruised to varying degrees.
Unable to hold it back, I started to cry.
He is really sad.
After finally escaping from the beatings from his grandparents and cousins, the family lived alone in this yard.
My sister seemed to be a different person.
My sister used to be very gentle and treated people well.
He really liked his former sister.
He was only five or six years old, and he didn't understand why his eldest sister had changed. He always felt that it was because of his bad behavior that her eldest sister didn't like him.
"Zhao Di, why are you pushing your brother?"
"The clothes are torn."
A middle-aged man with a sad face saw the scene in front of him and pulled Jiang Yaozu up from the ground in distress.
Then he bent down and picked up the tortillas on the ground and patted the soil on them.
It is common for rural people to bump into each other. This middle-aged man, who has suffered for half his life, feels sorry for Jiang Yaozu's clothes.
My knee was torn and I had to find a piece of cloth to patch it up again.
When the family was divided earlier, the land was only divided into one acre, and the pots and pans were the worst and most broken.
There are no quilts, and now the family is covered with straw-filled quilts.
But fortunately, the children and wife no longer have to suffer.
"Don't call me Zhaodi. If you have the ability, change my name to Juedi!"
"Haha, just spoil him!"
"That's what you are, feudal and pedantic."
Jiang Zhaodi didn't understand, and didn't look at her father in this body.
He said a few words angrily.
Jiang Daniu, as his name suggests, takes the life of an ox as a horse.
If she hadn't traveled through time to this family, there would be no way for this family to break away from the Jiang family.
He will be sucked by that scholar until he dies.
The whole family is as hungry as the sick rice seedlings.
Working every day, the benefits go to the uncle's family.
Haha, useless and pedantic stuff!
Jiang Zhaodi particularly disliked this father, but she still had to use this identity to live in this world.
If her nominal father wasn't Jiang Daniu, Jiang Zhaodi wouldn't be so vicious and direct.
Jiang Daniu is really too cowardly.
Jiang Daniu looked at the eldest daughter whose temperament had changed drastically. His mouth moved but no words came out.
Jiang Daniu comforted himself that it was probably because of the break-up of the engagement that his daughter felt so uncomfortable that she became different from before.
My daughter is still my didn’t the eldest daughter propose to cancel the engagement?
Also, the names of the three daughters were all given by his parents...
Almost all girls in the village had nicknames like this, and he couldn't tell what was wrong with them.
They are all their own children.
Seeing Jiang Zhaodi's arrogant attitude, Jiang Daniu, who was not good at words, could only drag his son back to the house.
I also feel a little uncomfortable.
After coaxing Jiang Yaozu, Jiang Daniu silently carried the basket and the sickle and prepared to go out.
Cut the grass to feed the rabbits.
He caught the rabbit from the mountain. He fell down while trying to catch the rabbit, and now he can't walk smoothly.
He was very tired after just coming back from the fields, but he went out to cut the grass anyway. The basket would be very heavy if it was filled with grass.
The three girls in the family are too thin, so they can just pick mushrooms.
The rabbit was originally going to be stewed to replenish the health of the wife and children at home, but Zhaodi and the others brought back some chicken yesterday, and the rabbit will be eaten in two days.
In fact, he had been planning to separate the family for a long time, but he was his son and could not bring it up.
Not long ago, there was an opportunity. I don't know why, but the eldest daughter seemed to have enlightened and said what he wanted to say in advance.
Although he was dull, he did not want his wife and children to suffer any more, so he took advantage of the situation and finally separated the family.
The eldest daughter is different from before, so different.
Behavioral habits, way of speaking...
As a parent, you must know your children.
Jiang Daniu took a deep look at Jiang Zhaodi and left the house.
"waste."
Jiang Zhaodi looked at Jiang Daniu's retreating back and murmured in a low voice.
It would be great if I traveled through time and became a princess, a princess, or a rich young lady.
Why is she the wild girl in the village? "Miss..."
Jiang Pandi came out of the main room to borrow needle and thread to mend his brother's clothes, when he happened to hear the word "trash" muttered by Jiang Zhaodi.
There was a lump in my throat.
She remembered that her eldest sister used to feel sorry for her parents who had to work too much.
Usually, she would have a small amount of food left over to share with her younger siblings and parents.
I tell them every day how hard my parents are working.
Jiang Pandi stood behind Jiang Zhaodi and watched her draw some strange patterns on the ground.
Everyone in the family can feel that the eldest sister is different from before, and they all feel that it may be related to the break-up of the engagement.
However, will breaking off the engagement also make the eldest sister able to write?
Jiang Pandi didn't know what words or patterns were on the ground, but she could tell that the eldest sister's drawings on the ground were very standard.
It's not the kind of haphazard smearing she and her sisters did.
Jiang Pandi stood there for a long time, and Jiang Zhaodi ignored her and didn't even look at her.
Jiang Pandi passed by Jiang Zhaodi silently and walked out of the house.
If, if the person in front of me is not the eldest sister, then where has the eldest sister gone?
Can she still find her eldest sister?
She really missed her former eldest sister.
……
Jiang Zhaodi was working hard to help her design gouache drawings, while Ji Caiyan went to Li Zheng's house to finalize the flower picking matter.
By the way, I gave Rizheng some money and bought the mountain close to the ancestral hall.
Li Zheng had already gone to the Yamen before and confirmed that Ji Caiyan's family could buy land and mountains, so he sold the mountains to Ji Caiyan.
A mountain costs more than 700 taels of silver.
Take it easily.
Not to mention the silks and satins she received in previous years, the New Year's money given to her by Grandpa Huang every year was more than this.
The royal family has been demoted, and no matter how poor you are, your clothes can be easily sold for a few thousand taels, which is not surprising.
At night, Ji Caiyan put the things he bought from the market into the space and prepared to take Fat Tiger into the mountains the next day.
Ask for a recommendation ticket.
