Chapter 1
1. Sleeping with a Ghost at the Wedding Night
Ji Ran felt that the most terrible thing was not death or transmigration, but as a man, he was all dressed up, sitting in a bridal sedan chair and the person he was going to marry was a black spirit tablet.
And how did he end up like this? It all started half a month ago.
After graduating from an agriculture university, Ji Ran did not stay in the city to conduct researches. Instead, he went back to his hometown and became a farmer. He rented land and built an agricultural base. Everything was going perfectly well and he was expecting huge harvests. But, he was struck by a thunderbolt and somehow he transmigrated to the Southern Dynasty.
And that was not the worst part. When other people travelled back in time, they were either reborn as powerful noblemen or as rich young masters, but he was reborn as an orphan named Ji Ran whose father died when he was three years old, and whose mother died when he was five years old. He had no one to rely on and he was almost sold by his evil aunt. Luckiy, his grandfather stopped her. Later, with the help of the village head, he was adopted by his father’s eldest brother, aka, his paternal uncle. At first, his paternal uncle and his paternal uncle’s wife did not want him in their house. They claimed that they were too poor to raise another child. And they only agreed after Ji Ran’s grandfather gave them all his savings.
Finally he had a roof over his head, but every day he had to get up early and stay up late. He did most of the work but he ate less than everyone else. He was hungry all the time and he wore the same clothes all year round. And if he didn’t finish the work that was assigned to him, he’ll be whipped hard. And that was how he spent his childhood and adolescences.
His cousins treated him as servants. Whenever things didn’t go as they expected, they would take it all out on him. One time, Ji Ran got sick after he was beaten for offending his younger cousin Ji Ru. As he couldn’t afford to see a doctor, he could only lie on the bed with a high fever and eventually he died of it. And that was when the soul of the current Ji Ran ended up being in his body.
Though the previous owner of this body was unlucky, Ji Ran didin’t feel that he was any luckier than him. He was never strong. Now that he was sick, he lied in bed for half a month without enough food to eat. When he finally got better, before he could put all the knowledge and skills he had learnt in moden times in use, an edict changed his life for the worse.
As a man, not only did he have to marry into another family and change his family name, the one he was going to marry was also a dead person!
Could he refuse? No way!
If he refused to comply, his close relatives would all be severely punished, not to mention that he would be sentenced to death for it. So his uncle and aunt would never let him do that. Now that they had a chance to get him out of their family, and get a huge amount of money from the marriage, it was a real win-win situation for them, as they could win two times and Ji Ran got nothing.
In order to prevent him from escaping, his uncle and aunt put purging croton into his meals which caused him to have loose bowels. In the end, he got so weak that he could only lie in bed all day long, and when the people came to pick him up on the weddng day, they had to carry Ji Ran into the bridal sedan chair.
Holding a spirit tablet while performing a complicated wedding ceremony was like going through hell. Even when Ji Ran got into the wedding room after the ceremony was over, he was still trying to catch his breath. Right now only one word could be used to describe how he was feeling right now: Dumbfounded!
“Sigh!” Ji Ran sighed in the candlelight, “F*ck the wedding and the wedding night. They told me to hold a spirit tablet in my hands. Do they expect me to consummate the marriage with a ghost? Still, I’m lucky that I’m married to a dead person; otherwise I’ll have to do it in a real way. So I should feel thankful for that? Forget it. Now that I’m here, I should make the most of it. Look at all these foods, there’s no way that I’ll let them go to waste. I’ve been underfed for half a month, and now I can finally feed my belly. I’ll just help myself now. And whatever will happen tomorrow, I’ll worry about it when it comes. I’m not gonna let anything stop me from enjoying the moment!”
After comforting himself, Ji Ran felt a little less anxious. He did as he said by rolling up his sleeves, sitting on a stool and eating.
There was indeed food on the table, but they were just some peanuts, longans and dates which were symbolic of a happy marriage with lots of children. Only that wine pot of liquor looked inviting. There was not even a single dish to match with the drink.
Ji Ran felt like swearing. He was married to a dead person. And he was a man. And they still prepared those foods symbolic of a marriage with lots of kids. Did the people in ancient times even use their brains?
Though he had a lot of complaints, he ate up all the food on the table. He grabbed the wine pot and gulped the liquor down. Ji Ran wiped his mouth and went to bed with his clothes on.
He was about to fall asleep when he suddenly felt something heavy was on his body.
Ji Ran was really tired and sleepy, so he didn’t think too much about it at first. He just ignored it and went back to sleep. However, in the blink of an eye, his clothes were gone.
The pain came so suddenly, and Ji Ran was completely awake. He opened his eyes only to see a semi-transparent naked man lying upon him. Stunned and scared, Ji Ran couldn’t even think.
He wanted to struggle, but shockingly, he found that he couldn’t move. He wanted to shout, but he could only make a snoring sound. And, the candles were all put out and there was not much light in the room. With the dim moonlight, he could only vaguely see the silhouette of a man. He couldn’t even figure out the man’s facial features.
He had just had a wedding with a ghost, and he was in such a state where he was unable to move or speak. And the man’s aura was so cold. Could it… could it be that the man was the ghost he was suppsed to be married to?!
With that in mind, Ji Ran felt goosebumps all over his body. And, what made him even more helpless was the fact that he had no control of his own body and the fear it brought him.

Chapter 10
10. It Feels So Great to Just Think about It
After the farce in the morning, Ji Ran knew that they wouldn’t possibly let him eat with them.
So, the first thing he needed to do was to figure out a way to feed himself.
However, it was not as simple as building a separate stove. He needed to make sure that he had enough daily necessities, such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea leaves. Firewood was everywhere, so that wouldn’t pose a problem for him, but he needed to buy the rest with money. And the problem was that he had no money, not even a penny.
“What’s wrong? You look worried.” Seeing that Ji Ran was sighing and frowning, Lu Zhen asked.
“I’m going out for a walk,” Ji Ran said as he stood up. He believed that he was the master of his own life and that if he just sat here at home, he would get nothing.
“I’ll go with you,” Lu Zhen stood up as well.
Ji Ran did not respond. He was not familiar with this place, so it was good to have Lu Zhen with him.
After getting out of the group of thatched sheds of the Lu Family, Ji Ran looked around and realized that the scenery out here was quite picturesque and that the environment was really good. Behind him were big mountains and he was facing a river. Based on Feng Shui, aka Chinese geomancy, it was a perfect location. No wonder this place was richer than the village where the Ji Family lived. The good environment was a gift from the nature and even if people in other places were jealous, they could do nothing about it.
“Is there fish in this river?” The two of them came to the riverside. Ji Ran stood there and looked down into the river.
“Yes,” Lu Zhen said, “During the dry season, the villagers love to fish here. When they catch a fish, they will take it to the bazaar and sell it or cook and eat it themselves. However, it is not easy to catch a fish in this river, and water snakes often show up here. In previous years, there were villagers who would bathe and fish in the river. Now other than some daring children, no one dares to go into the water.”
“Didn’t you leave home when you were very young? How come you know so much about this river?” After a while, Ji Ran tilted his head and squinted at Lu Zhen.
“I’ve overheard the villagers and my family talk about it recently,” Lu Zhen bent over to pick up a stone and threw it into the river. “Splash” and the stone caused circular ripples before it dropped into the bottom of the river.
Ji Ran smiled and turned around to look at the lush mountains behind the Lu Family’s thatched sheds.
Mountains in ancient times were primitive. And there was no shortage of wild beasts. It would be dangerous to get into the mountains, but it was still a way to make some money. Although Ji Ran was not sure about it, he knew that with such large mountains in the background, there must be no shortage of hunters in the village.
As Ji Ran was both thin and weak, it was impossible for him to go hunting himself, but he could always set a trap and catch a rabbit or a pheasant. In his previous life, Ji Ran was born in the mountains, so he had done things like this before. Although he did not expect to get filthy rich through it, at least he would not be starved.
Now that he had a plan, Ji Ran wasn’t that anxious anymore. Anyway, he came out here to familiarize himself with the environment. The top priority was to get some soil and stones so that he could build a stove. As for daily necessities, he would figure out a way to get them later.
With that in mind, they went back to their yard. But after looking everywhere, Ji Ran found that he couldn’t even find a suitable tool.
‘We’re really poor!’
And, Lu Zhen told him that he could get soil anywhere, but he would need to buy the stones from a stonemason in the village.
So, Ji Ran wasn’t even able to build a stove now.
‘But I can be creative about this. Since I can’t build a decent one for the time being, I can still make a simple one, right?’
‘There is a clearing of moderate size behind the house. I can dig a hole with my hands there and when it’s done, I can put the pan over it and I’ll be able to cook. And the clearing is next to a mountain cliff. I’ll push two wooden posts into the cliff and I’ll make a shed, so I won’t need to worry even when it rains. As for the fact that I don’t have the money to buy the kichenware, it won’t be a problem either. I can just barbecue the food. Though, due to the fact that I don’t have any seasoning, the food might taste funny, I’ll just live with it for now.’
It didn’t take them much time or effort to build a simple stove. Although there were no tools, Ji Ran had got a ghost. Lu Zhen looked so complacent when Ji Ran asked him to help dig a hole as if, with a wooden stick, he could move the Earth, and digging a hole was just a cakewalk for him. And with that wooden stick, he could do the work that only a shovel would do. That was the good thing about a ghost.
It was still quite early even after they built the stove and the shed, As the saying went, time was money. Ji Ran did not delay. He held Lu Zhen’s hand and ran up the mountain. He had only a wooden stick in his hand; yet he claimed that they were going hunting!
However, Lu Zhen didn’t object. He just followed him up the mountain.
“Hey, I thought ghosts were just shadows. But you can actually dig a hole with a stick. That’s just awesome! “Ji Ran panted all the way he climbed the mountain, but somehow he still managed to talk fluently.
“It’s just my psychokinesis,” Lu Zhen smiled.
“Sigh, I suddenly realize that I am a fool,” For a while, Ji Ran didn’t say anything and suddenly he blurted out.
Lu Zhen couldn’t follow him, so he turned his head and looked at Ji Ran in confusion.
He heard Ji Ran say, “It didn’t take you much effort to dig a hole. Then you must be good at hunting too. And catching an animal will be nothing to you as well. So why am I still thinking about digging a pit and setting a trap? I’m a fool indeed!”
“You’re quite right about it,” Lu Zhen nodded. “But you were so excited just now when you said we’d go hunting, You don’t want to come all the way here and do nothing, right? Why not try hunting yourself? It’s gonna be fun!”
“Just forget it. All we have is a wooden stick. We don’t even have one single tool that can be used for hunting. How are we gonna dig a pit and set a trap?” Ji Ran shook his head. “Although we could try, you’ll still be the one who do most of the work. So why bother? Let’s just make this simple. When we see the prey, you’ll just enter its body, control it and make it hit the tree hard, then I’ll pick it up. We don’t even have to fight with those wild beasts. You’ll be responsible for making the animals bump themselves against the trees, and I’ll be responsible for picking those dead animals up and taking them back. Hahahaha…” Wow. It felt so great to just think about it!
Lu Zhen looked at Ji Ran helplessly, and after a while, he said, “Okay.”

Chapter 21
21. Living Apart from the Lu Family
Ji Ran was really pissed off by Granny Lu’s unreasonable statements. In modern times, he was born in a family of farmers. He had seen all kinds of shrews. They fought almost over everything, for example, a piece of land, a dead chicken, a lost goose, etc. And catfights were quite common. But it was the first time that he saw what happened to himself: a man being called thief by his family members while his families stole food from his own house. They didn’t treat him as a member of this family and that was fine. But on the one hand, Granny Lu kept saying that as a member of the Lu Family, Ji Ran should do what he should do for this family and this house; on the other hand, she called him thief for eating food in this house. What was wrong with her? Why did she keep saying that the members of the Lu Family who ate the food in this house were thieves? Was she suffering from dementia?
‘She thinks that the louder she spoke, the more reasonable she is? Then how about I break everything here before I argue with her?’
“Fine,” Seeing that the head of the village said nothing as if he was here to watch a show, Ji Ran said with the corner of his mouth slightly turned up, His sharp gaze swept the room before he fixed it on Granny Lu. “So all of this is about one egg and some flour? Alright, I’ll compensate you. But I have one condition: From now on, I’ll live apart from you. I won’t take anything from you and once I’m out of here, we’ll live separately and we won’t interfere with each other’s business. And don’t tell me that we’re a family and that I’m not justified in living apart from you. Just like you said, since I’m married into this family, then I’m a member of this family. Whatever I earn, I should give it to you. And whenever I eat, I’m a thief. Let me ask you, how am I supposed to live in this family? Today you invite the head of the village here to see a farce. And tomorrow, you’ll ask him to uphold justice for you? In that case, I suggest that you prepare a straw mat and with it I’ll cover my dead body. I just have one question, when a man dies of exploitation and abuse, do those who exploit and abuse him commit a crime?”
By saying that, Ji Ran stopped the head of the village from interfering in this matter. His message was clear: it was okay for you to watch the show, but if you were to take part in it, then you’d better think twice before you said anything!
The truth was, the head of the village planned to be just a watcher as he knew that even the most upright judge could not settle a quarrel within a family. So this whole time, he was just pretending to look serious. He planned to smooth things over and act as a peacemaker. But the plan couldn’t keep up with the changes. With Ji Ran revealing his true intention like that, he felt that he must do something about it. And he thought that what Ji Ran said made some sense. In fact, he didn’t like how the Lu Family treated a newcomer as well.
“Ahem! Ahem!” He glanced at Ji Ran. The head of the village, who had been sitting there as if he were a backdrop, faked coughing twice. And when he spoke, he sounded fair and just, “Granny Lu, this is your fault. Just now, I’ve heard stories from both sides of you. And the argument between you two boils down to the fact that you don’t like it that your new daughter-in-law ate food in your house right after he came here. But he just came here and he knew nothing about the family. As his mother-in-law, you could’ve just told him. Instead, you made a fuss over it and you called him a thief. Don’t you think you went too far? You also said that once he is married into your family, he is a member of your family. Since you’re a family, he ate some food in your house and how could you say that he was a thief? I think that you care too much about the missing egg and flour. But your daughter-in-law also said that he would compensate you. In my opinion, both of you should take a step back and compromise with each other. And you’ll both let this matter go.”
“Sir, it’s not like that. He…”
Granny Lu was not persuaded and she meant to keep arguing, but the head of the village didn’t even give her a chance to talk. He raised his hand and interrupted her.
The head of the village said, “Besides, from what I just heard, you took away all the food that your daughter-in-law got by exchanging wild animals with the villagers while he wasn’t home. Do you think that it’s appropriate for you to do that? You don’t give him any food, and when he got food on his own, you took it away from him. What are you trying to do? Are you trying to starve him to death? Yes, he won’t be able to redress the grievance to others once he dies of starvation, but don’t you forget that this marriage was granted by the Emperor. If he dies, you won’t necessarily end up well.”
Although the head of village was being fair and just, he was also envious. Though there was nothing to envy about that it was a posthumous marriage and their daughter-in-law was a man, the rewards the Emperor had given them were handsome. Granny Lu was too greedy. She had gotten so many benefits from this marriage and yet she was so stingy with the food. Also, he took Ji Ran’s side because he saw Ji Ran was a capable man. The head of the village had met all kinds of people in his life. Ji Ran, who was new here and who was bullied by the whole family, didn’t resign himself to it. Instead, he managed to earn food on his own. The head of the village could tell that Ji Ran was a man who was able to change his fate. A man who didn’t accept his fate, who had brains, and who was competent and diligent would surely achieve great things. The Lu Family were too shallow, and one day they would regret it.
But no matter why the head of the village said that, Granny Lu and Grandpa Lu were both stunned. It was not that they were afraid of the head of the village, but rather, they were intimidated by the possibility that the Emperor might punish them when something went wrong with the marriage. Even though the Emperor was far away, they couldn’t afford to take any risks. What if the Emperor heard about it and got angry? Besides, they were well aware of the fact that the villagers were envious of them.
However, even though Granny Lu was a little angry, her brain was working fast.
She didn’t say anything at the moment, but Leng Xianglian stood up with one hand supporting her big pregnant belly and with the other hand supporting her waist.
“Sir, it’s easy for you to say that. After all, this didn’t happen in your family, so you can talk about this matter in whatever way you want without considering the consequences. You’re after all the head of our village. How can you be so partial?” Leng Xianglian purposedly cast flirtatious glances at the head of the village.”My mother-in-law isn’t an unreasonbale woman. It’s totally understandable if he ate the food because he was hungry. The problem was that my mother-in-law knocked on his door many times but he stayed in the room and continued to sleep. And when everyone else was out doing the farm work, he came out and ate the food. It’s not even about the missing food. He is purely lazy! As for the matter that we took all of his food away from his yard, it’s because my father-in-law got injured yesterday. He is old and needs more nutrition. As his daughter-in-law, Ji Ran should do his part to take care of his father-in-law. There’s nothing wrong with that! Yes, yesterday, my parents-in-law called him thief because of the missing food. But we all know that there are no perfect parents in this world. Sir, don’t you agree with me?”
Ji Ran raised an eyebrow and was about to refute when he was stopped by Lu Zhen.
“We did not lose much food. Just let them have it. Don’t forget your goal of living apart from them,” Lu Zhen said.
Ji Ran did not expect Lu Zhen to be a doormat. No wonder he was bullied when he was a child, and when he grew up, he was forced to leave home. Ji Ran felt both sorry and angry. He hated that Lu Zhen stopped him from refuting, so he looked sullen while remaining silent.
“Later, I will help you take revenge. I won’t let them get it for nothing,” Lu Zhen said in a hurry when he saw that Ji Ran was angry. Actually, he also did not intend to let this family get away with it so easily.
Knowing that Lu Zhen would help him take revenge, Ji Ran felt much better. He instantly looked like he didn’t give a damn about it, “Alright, since our father-in-law is sick and he needs more nutrition, I will give those stuff to him. And here is another matter: From today on, I’ll live apart from you. I’ve compromised, and you should do the same. Otherwise, I’d rather smash everything than give it to you!”
“You! How dare you!” With Leng Xianglian backing her up, Granny Lu instantly felt that what she did was justifiable. So when she heard what Ji Ran said, she was so angry that she stomped her foot.
“You can try and stop me,” Ji Ran swung the rolling pin expressionlessly, “I will count to three. If you don’t agree, I will smash one item in this family! And then I’ll count again.” Since they refused to listen to reason, then Ji Ran would stop trying to reason with them. “One… two… three…”
Ji Ran did as he said. Seeing that the Lu Family didn’t say a word, he raised his hand and knocked over the shallow handle-less basket by the door and the beans in it fell all over the place.
Granny Lu screamed as if she was crazy. And she looked like she wanted to eat people alive.
Ji Ran was not affected and he continued to count, “One… two…”
“Alright!” Granny Lu said that before Ji Ran counted to three. She felt heartbroken when she saw the beans falling on the ground. And then she saw that Ji Ran was ready to knock over the dried millet on the other side, and she couldn’t bear it. “You can live apart from this family, but don’t you think that you can get even a single grain of rice from here. You think that you’re quite capable, right? Then you can make a living on your own. I’ve got a big family to feed and I have nothing to spare to you. And even though you’re on your own from now on, you still should undertake your due obligations. As a daughter-in-law, it’s your responsibility to take good care of your parents-in-law!”

Chapter 19
19. Teach Ji Xiaohu a Lesson
“Ho, just now I was wondering why you looked so familiar. It turns out you’re my cousin who is married to a dead man.”
Ji Xiaohu was a country bumpkin, but he wore impressive clothes and jewellery, and held a folding fan in his hand, which made him look like a dandy. Those who didn’t know him might think that he was a young master from a rich family. But in fact, he was a rascal who idled about, gambled, and whored.
“This is a clothing store. Why are you here? To buy clothes?” Ji Xiaohu circled Ji Ran and sized him up. “Come on, you’re a man and your husband is dead. There’s no point in puttiing on good clothes. No matter how well-dressed you are, no one will be there to admire it. So instead of wasting your money on buying new clothes, you should give your money to me. It just so happens that I’m tight on money right now. So why not just give your money to me now?”
“Ji Xiaohu.” Ji Ran sneered and deliberately raised his hand to the top of Ji Xiaohu’s head. “Compared to your height, your face is quite small. There must be spare cloth in the clothing store. How about I give you two pennies? So you can go buy a piece of cloth and cover your face with it.”
Ji Xiaohu was both ignorant and incompetent. All he did every day was to eat, drink, and have fun. So it took him quite a while before he realized that Ji Ran was being sarcastic, and his face immediately darkened.
“Damn you, bastard! You’ve got the nerve to say that I’m shameless?!” Ji Xiaohu waved his fist and was ready to hit Ji Ran’s face. “Who do you think you are? How dare you say something like that!”
Ji Xiaohu threw a punch, but Ji Ran raised his hand and caught Ji Xiaohu’s hand. At the same time, Lu Zhen kicked Ji Xiaohu’s knees. Ji Xiaohu, who didn’t know what was going on, felt that his knees got limp. And “thud”, he knelt down in front of Ji Ran.
Ji Ran let go of his hand, bent down and patted Ji Xiaohu’s face while Ji Xiaohu broke out in a cold sweat. “Now you’re doing the right thing. You realize that you did something wrong and you apologize for it. Since you’re so sincere that you knelt down, I’ll let all this go and I forgive you.”
“You…” Ji Xiaohu suddenly raised his head and glared at Ji Ran. His eyes were filled with viciousness, “How dare you hit me!”
“When did I ever hit you? I just blocked your punch. So many people are watching us. They can prove that you knelt down on your own. Wait, didn’t you fall to your knees because you realized that you were wrong?” Ji Ran looked confused and blinked in a complete innocent way, “I also wondered why you did this and I was taken aback. It turns out that you meant to frame me!”
After saying that, Ji Ran moved to one side, pretending to be terrified. And he looked to the left and then to the right in fear. He turned around and ran into the store like a rabbit, leaving Ji Xiaohu kneeling there alone. And instantly, he became the target of everyone else’s attention. He only felt that he had never been so embarrassed his whole life and he wanted to tear Ji Ran into pieces.
Ji Xiaohu gritted his teeth and when he came to his senses, he found that everyone was pointing and laughing at him. Instantly, his face turned completely red due to embarrassment. However, he didn’t know what had happened just now. He only felt a sharp pain in his knees and he didn’t have the strength to stand up and leave. Seeing him kneeling in front of the shop like a beggar, two shop assistants thought it was not good for business, so they came out, lifted him up and put him down somewhere away from the shop. Ji Xiaohu stumbled, took a few steps backward, leaned against the wall and stabilized himself. When his knees didn’t hurt that much, he shuffled away while swearing.
Meanwhile, Ji Ran was not affected by Ji Xiaohu at all. He got dazzled the moment he entered the store. As a transmigrator, it was the first time that he saw so many authentic ancient clothes. To him, everything in the store was breathtaking. And he liked all of them.
The shop assistant here was way more professional than the shop assistant in the pharmacy. They didn’t judge people by their looks and they didn’t ignore Ji Ran just because he was wearing a shabby outfit. Instead, they greeted him enthusiastically and introduced the clothes to Ji Ran passionately.
However, no matter what the shop assistant said. Lu Zhen fixed his gaze on a white robe.
“You like this one?” While the shop assistant was facing Ji Ran with his back, Ji Ran quickly lowered his voice and asked his invisible husband Lu Zhen.
Lu Zhen said only one word, “Yes.”
Ji Ran glanced at Lu Zhen who looked quite serious and he was amused, but he still started to look at the robe carefully. The robe was plain-colored, and the fabric was not that good either. Compared to those flowery and patterned ones, it was unremarkable, but the golden embroidery with the shapes of water and cloud on the cuffs and around the buttons was particularly exquisite.
“Simple, low-key, but exquisite. It suits you. You will look great in it,” Lu Zhen commented.
“On which occasion will I be able to wear that?” In fact, Ji Ran liked the outfit, too. But Ji Ran was a poor farmer. The robe didn’t go with his identity, “I won’t be able to wear it even if I buy it. It will be inconvenient for me to wear this and do farm work.” Actually he intended to buy some farmer clothes.
Lu Zhen looked at the robe unwaveringly. “Wear it on the bed.” Then he would take it off!
Now it was Ji Ran’s turn to feel embarrassed. The feelings he had right there and then was simply unspeakable. And, what was even worse was that he actually did as Lu Zhen said and bought that robe.
Uhh… They were shopping for sexy clothes at a normal clothing store. How unbelievable!
Of course, Ji Ran didn’t only buy that robe. In order to have something to wear when he was doing farm work, Ji Ran also bought two sets of coarse farmer clothes and two pairs of cloth shoes. Later, before they left the bazaar, he also bought two pairs of straw sandals.
After buying the clothes, the two men went home.
On the way, they didn’t encounter a donkey cart or a bullock cart, so they could only walk all the way back. It had been a busy day. And Ji Ran got hungry before he reached home. He immediately took out the packed chicken and ate it, but the meat was cold and greasy. It could make him full but it didn’t really taste good. Even so, Ji Ran did not complain and he enjoyed it quite a lot.
Seeing Ji Ran chowing down the chicken, people might think the chicken must taste extremely delicious. Even Lu Zhen, a ghost, couldn’t help but feel like drooling.
“Drink some water, otherwise you’ll choke,” Lu Zhen took the bottle made of a bamboo tube off from Ji Ran’s waist, opened the lid and handed it to him. They made this bottle from a piece of broken bamboo that they picked up in the mountain yesterday. The piece of bamboo was small and delicate. Someone must have cut it off and thrown it away. They were lucky to come across it. Although its diameter was just a little bit longer than that of a flute, it was still useful.
Ji Ran felt like he was choking on the meat, so he took two large gulps of water. And there was only a little water left in the bamboo bottle. It showed that the thin bamboo tube couldn’t contain much water.
“Why are you doing this to yourself? You could have bought some hot food in the town and eaten it there. Why are you being so hard on yourself?” Lu Zhen said while tying the bamboo cup back to Ji Ran’s waist.
“Even though we have money now, we still need to be economical, as I plan to build a house somewhere else away from the Lu Family’s residence.” Ji Ran had had this thought long ago, “Although our yard is separate from everyone else’s. We’re still in the same complex. And we have to see each other every day. So fights and bickerings will always be inevitable.”
So far whatever decisions Ji Ran made, Lu Zhen had never commented, but he still said, “Even if you want to build a house, 30 taels will be about enough.” He thought so because he believed that Ji Ran wanted to build ordinary thatched houses.
Ji Ran only smiled and didn’t respond. He wanted to build more than just a few thatched houses. Besides, he had his own plan. Of course, it would only cost them dozens of taels to build some simple houses, but if he were to build houses, he would build only good ones. It would be best if he could build a manor where there were houses, greenhouses, farms, and plantations. And that would cost them a fortune.
