Everyone Knows I’m a Good Man

The Lazy Man in the Literature of the Time (2)

Ji Changze stood on the steps and stretched, watching Aunt Ji busy in the kitchen, and took the time to look back at him, her eyes full of surprise and disbelief.

He was not surprised.

If Aunt Ji at home was the type of person who was honest and would not dare to complain no matter how much suffering she had in her heart and how unacceptable she was, then Aunt Ji was a little more active and dared to do some small things.

But she would definitely not dare to do anything bad, otherwise she would not have let the original owner be so arrogant for so long.

It would take some time to cook, and after he stretched, he walked out the door openly. Aunt Ji's neck was almost stretched out like a giraffe, and when he went out, she could only reluctantly retract it.

It was a coincidence that when Ji Changze stood at the door, he met a "friend" who was urging the original owner to go out and "play a few games".

This guy is called Wang Daqiang, a common name, and he looks common too. He is about the same age as Ji Changze. He may be trying to move towards Huhushengwei when he walks, but he doesn't act like Huhushengwei, but looks like he has a leg injury.

"Changze, I just happened to meet you. How is it? Did you get the money?"

Wang Daqiang approached very familiarly, put his hand on Ji Changze's shoulder, and talked to himself: "You are really brave. I asked you to think of a way to avoid working, but you jumped down from the mountain directly. But it's true, you are the only one who is brave in the whole village."

"Your grandmother must be heartbroken, right? People who have experienced it can tell you that it is the best time to ask for money. Not only can you get a lot of money, but it is also very easy."

Ji Changze listened to him silently, and a smile appeared on his face: "Brother Qiang, what about you? You said you would take me to the city to play, so how much money did you prepare? It should be easier for you to get money than me, right?"

Wang Daqiang's face froze, and he didn't know how to respond.

This man is full of bad intentions, but there is a reason why he specifically picked on Ji Changze.

He and Ji Changze were born in the same year, and both had their parents and grandfather die early, and were both raised by their parents and grandfather.

What is even more similar is Wang Daqiang's uncle, second uncle, and third uncle, who also had a lot of golden flowers but no sons.

The only difference from Ji Changze is that since they have no sons, they treat Ji Changze, their nephew, as a treasure. When they come to the Wang family, they can't give birth to a son, and Wang Daqiang's three uncles will not give him any advantage.

They are not fools. They have brought Wang Daqiang up since he was a child. Don't they know what kind of person he is?

Wang's grandmother is a good-tempered person. It is impossible for her to be like Grandma Ji, who forced her two sons and two daughters-in-law to help raise her nephew. The three uncles of the Wang family really see Wang Daqiang as a person.

Even if they really give him money, they are afraid that they will not get a return in the future.

If they really have money in their hands, they might as well leave it to their own biological daughters. After all, they are their own flesh and blood, and they can help a little.

Besides, they are not very old, not even fifty yet, who knows when they can have another child.

Raise Wang Daqiang, who is not ambitious? Forget it, it is better to adopt a baby than to count on him.

So, Wang Daqiang had the heart of being a young master for nothing, but his three uncles were not easy to fool, and no one spoiled him.

If that were the case, Wang Daqiang would gradually accept his fate.

But there is Ji Changze in the village.

Ji Changze's two uncles are real fools, who are willing to help their brothers raise children, and spend more effort than their own children.

The two are in exactly the same situation, but the treatment they receive is very different.

Ji Changze doesn't work, that's for sure.

Wang Daqiang doesn't work, that's a lazy bone.

Ji Changze hides in the field every day to bask in the sun, and is praised by the Ji family for his handsomeness, which makes him feel comfortable.

Wang Daqiang hides in the field, that's taking the opportunity to be lazy and should be taught a lesson.

Ji Changze would cry out for food and his sisters would come to him to eat.

No matter how much Wang Daqiang wanted to eat, his cousins ​​would not care. If they quarreled, they might even complain to his uncle.

Wang Daqiang was not happy.

Why?

They were in the same situation, the same age, and had the same older sisters, but he was the only one who was a boy. Why did Ji Changze get spoiled by his family, but he couldn't get such treatment?

Of course, his resentment was directed at his three uncles at first, but after measuring their solid muscles and tall bodies, he immediately took back his resentment.

He just didn't like Ji Changze. Of course, he didn't like him because he was easy to bully, but because he was too arrogant.

If he really got into it, Wang Daqiang still wouldn't dare.

He happened to be a gangster, and heard that someone gambled and lost his family and owed a large debt. After thinking about it, he came to Ji Changze to get close to him and try to seduce him to gamble.

The original owner was also someone who couldn't resist the temptation. When he heard it, he immediately said that he could find a way not to work, and then go out with him with the money.

But now it's Ji Changze.

"Brother Qiang, tell me, how much money did your family give you? Show me so I can have a better idea."

Wang Daqiang didn't have any money in his hand. Even if his grandmother spoiled him, he wandered around here and there every day. It would be strange if he could leave any money.

Ji Changze looked at him with suspicion; "Brother Qiang, didn't you say you would take me out to play? You can't be without any money, right? Even if you don't bring money, you can bring some food coupons. You won't bring nothing and let me bring money, right?"

Wang Daqiang: "..."

He meant it.

But he couldn't say that on the surface. Wang Daqiang smiled dryly a few times: "No, I just want to see if you are ready? I have all my money at home."

"Oh..." Ji Changze nodded in sudden realization: "The money is at home, then go get it, and we will leave after you get the money."

Wang Daqiang's smile became more stiff.

Where can he get the money?

"Changze, how much money did you ask your grandma for? Is it enough to play? If you don't have enough money, we won't go."

Ji Changze gestured: "Five yuan, and a few food coupons, is that enough, Brother Qiang?"

Wang Daqiang's eyes almost popped out.

Five yuan? ? ! !

I knew that the Ji family loved Ji Changze before, but I didn't expect that they loved him so much. When he asked for money, he could actually ask for so much.

If I give him these five dollars, it will be enough for him to spend for a long time.

Wang Daqiang now regrets the idea of ​​taking Ji Changze to the gambling house. It's better to let him get the money than to let others get it. It would be great if he could get the money.

He has learned a few tricks to cheat. Although he can't fool people who play frequently, can't he fool Ji Changze who has never gambled before?

After he had this idea, he couldn't suppress it. He swallowed his saliva, smiled more sincerely, and said to Ji Changze: "Changze, why don't we go to the town to play? It takes a lot of effort to go back and forth from a long distance. It's better for us to play by ourselves. We are from the same village and can play anytime we want. Don't you think so?"

Ji Changze nodded with a smile, looking easy to talk to: "Okay, Brother Qiang, then I'll listen to you. Let's play alone."

This Ji Changze, it turns out, has never seen the world and is easy to fool.

And after making money, if Ji Changze regrets and wants to get the money back, he can completely deny it and pretend that it didn't happen.

After all, he looked down on Ji Changze before and never interacted with him. In the eyes of the villagers, they had no friendship.

Every time he looked for Ji Changze, he specially chose a time when there was no one. At that time, Ji Changze, a person who "never had a friendship with him", suddenly "slandered" him that he won the gambling with him, and he could completely stand up and express his innocence.

What? I'm not familiar with Ji Changze, what money? I don't know, I've never seen it, I've never heard of it.

When Wang Daqiang thought that he would soon have five yuan of income, and Ji Changze would be cheated by him to vomit blood, he almost laughed out loud.

Ji Changze: "But brother Qiang, do you have five yuan? If you don't have money, I won't play with you."

"Yes, yes, I left it at home, I'll go back and get it now."

The fat sheep in hand can't run away, right? Wang Daqiang hurriedly agreed, and while walking back, he didn't forget to say to Ji Changze: "Wait, I'll come to you with money soon, and then we brothers will have a good time."

Ji Changze stood there and watched him go away with a smile.

After the man left, he rested for about ten minutes before walking towards another road.

Wang Daqiang definitely had no money in his hand.

But if he wanted to earn Ji Changze's money, he must have capital, so it was easy to think where the money came from.

Now is not the time to work, the men are resting under the tree in groups of three or four. Ji Changze saw Wang Daqiang and his three uncles sitting together and chatting.

"Uncle, I just saw someone climb up to your yard. My injury hasn't healed yet, so I don't dare to go over there. I'm afraid I can't beat the thief. You should go back and take a look."

The three stood up immediately after hearing this: "Did you really see it?"

"I really saw it. When I went over there, I just saw the man climb in. I don't know if it was one person or two people."

"Damn it, he dared to steal from us."

The three of them picked up their hoes and went to their homes angrily.

When the others who were resting on the side heard that there was a thief in the village, they followed behind to watch the fun.

It's rare that thieves can visit their poor place.

The three of them soon arrived at the gate of the yard.

That's right, the three of them lived in the same courtyard, and next door was Grandma Wang and Wang Daqiang. All three of them were willing to take care of the elderly, but none of them was willing to take care of their nephew, so they lived separately and gave the elderly their share on weekdays.

Ji Changze followed behind and watched the three of them open the door and enter.

Wang Daqiang, who had sneaked in, had just found the money, and he was exposed to his three uncles with the money.

"Uncle, second uncle, third uncle, listen to my explanation. I didn't want to steal this money from you. I wanted to borrow it and use it. After I use it up, I will return it to you. It's just one afternoon. I promise to return it to you in one afternoon. Really!! Oh uncle, don't hit me, don't hit me, I know I was wrong."

After a while, Wang Daqiang was driven out crying. His three uncles were not so good-tempered. They didn't show any mercy when they hit him. He was so painful that he was shaking when he walked.

"Are you borrowing money?! You borrowed money from us, and we only gave it to you after we agreed. You are just stealing!! How did you raise a guy like you? You steal your own family's money and pay it back, If Ji Changze hadn't seen someone come in, would you have killed me?"

The beaten Wang Daqiang accurately captured the words Ji Changze.

Ji Changze snitched? ?

He looked at Ji Changze who was standing in the crowd watching the excitement with shock and anger: "Ji Changze!! You actually betrayed me!!!"

Ji Changze's face was also full of confusion: "Brother Qiang, what did you say? Why did I betray you?"

"You knew I was going home to get money, but you deliberately told my uncle and the others!!!"

"How could I possibly know that you want to steal money? No one in the village knows that we didn't interact at all before."

As Ji Changze spoke, his face slowly showed anger; "It's obviously you who stole the money, and you blame me. If I knew it was you, I wouldn't go to Uncle Wang and the others. You are all one family." Man, it’s none of my business for you to enter the yard.”

What he said is true.

Anyway, others believed it.

Who doesn't know that these two young men in their village who behaved like bastards didn't interact with each other before, and they haven't had any friendship since childhood.

Now it seems that Wang Daqiang was caught in the act, and he couldn't get over it, so he started to grab people into the water randomly.

Wang Daqiang was simply stunned.

This was just like what he had expected before, confusing right and wrong, completely obliterating every step without missing a beat.

But the question is, shouldn't he be the one who confuses right and wrong and pretends to be stupid? ?

He could only watch Ji Changze babbling: "Forget it, you are just jumping over the wall in a hurry. I won't argue with you, but it's not me who said, Wang Daqiang, everyone in the village knows what you are doing. I, Ji Changze, am the worst person. People say I am incompetent, but no matter how incompetent I am, I am not stealing from others, let alone stealing from my own family, tsk tsk tsk.”

Wang Daqiang immediately felt something stuck in his heart.

You, Ji Changze, are the darling of the entire Ji family, so of course you don’t need to steal if you want money.

He wanted to refute, but unfortunately Ji Changze didn't give him this chance at all.

"You didn't steal from so many people in the village, so why did you steal from your uncle's house? Oh, I understand. You just relied on them being your uncles. Even if they found out that they had less money, they wouldn't be able to do anything to you. They'd beat you up. I can’t send you to the police station. I didn’t expect you to be such an insidious person.”

Wang Daqiang; "..."

gab!

It's all nonsense! ! !

But it was useless to argue. The three uncles standing behind him were already looking at him with sinister eyes.

Ji Changze: "Please don't put me and Wang Daqiang together in the future. He and I are different. No matter how much of a bastard I am, I will never be sneaky. Look at me, I'm still doing a good job today. Otherwise, I'm afraid they'll lose me." I don’t know who stole the money.”

It's rare these days for someone to boast so confidently. When Ji Changze praised himself like this, someone next to him was indeed spared and praised: "You are doing the right thing. It is not easy for every household to make money and food now. If Wang Daqiang really stole this, It’s going to be a hard time.”

"Hey, you really don't need to praise me. We are from the same village. How can I still pretend that I didn't see it? Even if it were not Uncle Wang's family, if it were any other family in the village, if I saw a thief in your house, I would definitely not just I don’t care.”

Ji Changze himself has a good appearance, and now he stands upright and speaks such words, which is really trustworthy.

Especially since he had just done a good deed, the eyes of everyone looking at him suddenly became much kinder.

Wang Daqiang simply watched Ji Changze step on him to gain a good reputation, and his face was livid with anger.

"You all let him deceive you. He tricked me into going home to get money, saying he wanted to gamble with me..."

Ji Changze touched his injured head and sneered: "Wang Laoqi, did I lose my brain or did you lose your brain? How come your brain is damaged? I bet with you? Gambling is only done by people without conscience. Who is from the next village, the Zhao family? Isn’t it because of gambling? A good family has been tortured so much that they can’t eat. I’m crazy and I’m gambling. You don’t understand.”

"By the way, why did you use gambling money to get me? You don't want to gamble money anymore, do you?!"

"You actually went to gamble?! Didn't the captain say that du'b0 is not allowed in the village?! You actually openly defied the captain!!"

This exaggerated, surprised, and somewhat shocked tone successfully focused everyone's attention on Wang Daqiang.

"No wonder he always runs to town. It turns out he is gambling."

"I just said that last time I heard his aunt say that he spent money ruthlessly even if he didn't work. At that time, he thought that he would eat and live in the village and spend the money wherever he could. Instead, he threw it all into the big hole of gambling. ”

"What a sin the Wang family has done. It's just a single seedling, and it's so stupid."

Ji Changze also shook his head, with a look of hatred on his face: "It's evil, it's evil. Such a young man, what can he do? It's all about the family's money."

Wang Daqiang; "..."

How can this guy be so good at acting?

Ji Changze finished dumping the blame, patted his butt and left: "Okay, I'm still waiting for dinner at home, you can do it yourself, I don't care, anyway, you don't care about gambling, so you don't care about my business."

Wang Daqiang: "...Don't leave, please speak clearly, Ji Changze, Ji Changze, did you hear that, Ji Changze!! Please answer me... Hey! Uncle, I was wrong, I was wrong, don't fight, don't fight..."

After leaving a pile of chicken feathers for Wang Daqiang, Ji Changze strolled home.

After everything was ready, Uncle Ji and Uncle Ji sat down at the table in a daze, wondering why they still had their share of the meat.

Second Aunt Ji was also a little flattered. While she was busy in the kitchen, she even sighed to Third Aunt Ji: "This kid Nagasawa is really sensible. He is actually willing to share the meat with us."

Aunt Ji: "..."

"Second sister-in-law, please make it clear that the meat was given by the eldest girl. You and the second brother are the eldest girl's biological parents. He should have given it to you a long time ago."

"Hey, we are all old bones, why should we eat meat? Nagasawa was just injured and needs to recuperate."

Aunt Ji: "..."

I've never seen him give up before when he didn't need to replenish his body.

She still felt that something was wrong. Ji Changze had always been a master who only got in and out, but he was suddenly so attentive. Who would believe that he was not a ghost?

She carefully pulled Aunt Ji over: "Second sister-in-law, don't you think there's anything wrong? With Nagasawa's temper, how could he give up the meat?"

Aunt Ji: "So he is sensible. Children are like this when they grow up."

Come on, that doesn’t make sense.

Anyway, in this family, she is the only one with a bright mind, so she should be more vigilant.

So when Ji Changze came back, he was faced with the wary eyes of his second aunt.

He sat down calmly, and while eating, he vividly told the Ji family about Wang Daqiang's behavior just now.

Of course, he didn't say that Wang Daqiang had a du'b0 history before, but if the Ji family thought so, there was nothing he could do.

Grandma Ji slapped the table: "What a Wang Daqiang, he stole money for himself and wants to throw dirty water on you. Nagaze, just wait. When the meal is over, Grandma will go to his door to scold him." If he doesn’t scold him for an hour, my wife will take his surname.”

"No, I see that he was beaten quite badly. He is probably dizzy now."

Ji Changze still acted like the original owner, eating like he was grabbing for things, putting delicious meat and vegetables into his own bowl, and eating like crazy.

After he finished, he put down the bowl and began to criticize Wang Daqiang righteously: "In my opinion, this Wang Daqiang is not clear-headed. Is it possible to be contaminated? Who doesn't know that once he is exposed, he will never come out again? "My family is ruined and my family is ruined. Anyway, I don't like him. I used to think that we were quite similar, but now it seems that he has no moral integrity."

"I don't want to be seen working, and I'm not happy to do it, but I won't get involved in such things and harm my family, my second uncle, my second aunt, my third uncle, my third aunt, and my mother. You guys are so good to me, Xin You have worked hard to raise me. If I gamble with my family’s money, am I still a human being? Even if it’s for you, I can’t gamble! Then Wang Daqiang is a heartless person, even if he really wins the gamble. , I will definitely not let his uncles take advantage. I am different. If I make money, uncles, aunts, and sisters, I will definitely repay you. Second uncle, do you still want to eat this piece of meat? I’ve been putting it in the bowl for a long time and I haven’t seen you move. If you don’t want to eat it, I’ll eat it.”

Second Uncle Ji was so moved just now. After hearing this, he hurriedly took the meat in his bowl and said, "Uncle Second doesn't want to eat it, so you eat it."

Ji Changze immediately thanked him: "Thank you, second uncle. From now on, I will make money and buy you meat every day."

If a good person says good things to you, it is a normal thing for others.

But when a person who used to be extremely bad suddenly turns around, this is simply a good thing worth setting off firecrackers to celebrate.

Plus, people are afraid of comparison.

With the negative comparison of Wang Daqiang, and the hard work he had just done to exaggerate how much of a bastard Wang Daqiang was, Ji Changze really didn't seem to have any shortcomings, except that he was just lazy, greedy, and had a bad temper and didn't like to work.

Grandma Ji was so happy that there were a few more wrinkles on her face: "Grandma, you know that our parent Zhang Ze is a sensible person. Come and eat more vegetables. Oh, Grandma is really happy."

Aunt Ji: "..."

No, why are you so moved and happy? Isn't it just that you are not du'b0? Isn't that what normal people should do?

She twitched the corners of her mouth and looked at Aunt Ji aside: "Second sister-in-law..."

Second Aunt Ji also had a look of joy on her face, her eyes were even a little red, she wiped the corners of her eyes gently, and sighed to Third Aunt Ji: "Look at this child, how sensible he is. Fortunately, we didn't have a nephew like Wang Daqiang, otherwise it would be so... It’s a life of unrest.”

Aunt Ji: "..."

Am I crazy, or is the world crazy?
