Afterwards, Lin Jingshen took the two children to the yard to fold paper airplanes and boats, and they also rode a small wooden boat that could run on the water. The two children were so happy.
Later that night, Lin Jingshen slept alone again and got up early the next day to go home.
When he got up, Chi Yue was still asleep. Lin Jingshen wanted to knock on the door, but he raised his hand for a while and finally put it down.
He is not really a fool. He would not be unaware that there is a problem between him and Chi Yue at this time.
Not daring to knock on the door, Lin Jingshen found a pen and paper and left a short letter for Chi Yue. Then he picked up his things and left the factory, took the bus outside to the station.
The door outside slammed shut with a bang, and Chi Yue behind the bedroom door also opened it.
She looked at the empty room, and finally saw the note Lin Jingshen left for her on the coffee table.
[Xiaoyue, I've only taken two days off, so I have to go back today. You have to take care of the kids and work during the day, so you can't get a bad night's sleep, so I won't call you.
I'm leaving. Take care of yourself and Jiajia. I...] There was a black dot there after I paused for a moment. [I'll come see you during the holidays. Nanxi (their youngest daughter) is doing well at home. Don't worry.]
【Take good care of yourself! 】
Chi Yue finished reading the few short sentences in less than a minute, but she stood there for a long time without moving.
Finally, Lin Jiaojiao got up and saw her standing in the living room, calling out "Sister-in-law!"
Chi Yuecai quickly folded the paper in his hand and said, "You're up!"
Lin Jiaojiao nodded and looked around the room curiously. "Is my brother still awake?"
Chi Yue shook her head, and before Lin Jiaojiao could misunderstand, she said, "He went back."
"Back...ah, you're home so soon!"
"Then you have to take Jiajia to work again," Lin Jiaojiao stood on Chi Yue's side as soon as she spoke.
Chi Yue shrugged and said, "It's okay. Jia Jia doesn't bother me anyway. With Qiu Qiu by her side, she's easy to take care of."
Lin Jiaojiao was not humble at all when she heard this, "Jia Jia just follows me. I have been obedient since I was a child."
Chi Yue didn't bother with her and just asked, "What did you eat in the morning?"
Lin Jiaojiao said, "Sister-in-law, just buy whatever you want. I'll go cook some porridge."
Lin Jingshen was hungry and got on the return bus alone.
When you are alone, your thoughts are always more likely to wander. Lin Jingshen felt very sad when he thought of Chi Yue's estrangement, but he was too embarrassed to cry in the car.
And he also vaguely understood that Chi Yue might not like him crying now.
So he just felt uncomfortable, his eyes were dry, but after returning home, he couldn't help himself when facing the bowl of rice.
She quickly wiped the corners of her eyes, and finally ate a bowl of leftover rice with her tears.
After eating, Lin Jingshen washed the dishes and the pots in one go.
After cleaning up, Lin Jingshen also met the other members of the Gu family.
Gu Yanli was the first to notice that something was wrong with him, but Lin Jingshen was already in his twenties, so Gu Yanli didn't dare to lean over and ask, "What's wrong? Are you crying?"
He just looked at his nephew who was obviously much quieter and asked, "Did you lose your tongue during your last trip to the city?"
Lin Jingshen pursed his lips and didn't want to speak, but still said, "It's not fun in the city!" That's all he said.
If he felt aggrieved in the past, he would have shown it on his face, but now he has learned to hide it, and even learned to answer questions in a ambiguous way.
Gu Yanli tsk-tsks, "It's not a place to play in the first place."
"Besides, you are an adult, what's fun about that?" Gu Yanli also replied with something ambiguous.
Lin Jingshen didn't know whether he understood or not, but he nodded anyway.
When Gu Jinfeng saw him, she asked, "How are Xiaoyue and Jiajia doing?"
"OK?"
"Xiaoyue, can you take care of the child alone?"
Lin Jingshen said nothing, but just reached out and hugged his little daughter, and finally said sullenly, "Not bad!"
Lin Jingshen held his little daughter in his arms and felt that his father was right. It really wasn't okay for a family of four to be separated like this.
Gu Jinfeng was not observant. When he heard Lin Jingshen's vague answer, he thought that he was also not observant and didn't even know whether his child and daughter-in-law had changed. However, he did not notice that his son was unhappy.
Few people noticed Lin Jingshen's melancholy, as everyone's attention was now on Gu Shuhe's marriage.
Gu Shuhe's marriage was set, and the engagement would be held soon, followed by the wedding, so naturally everyone had to discuss it.
From what kind of ceremony an engagement would take place to what kind of dowry should be given when getting married, we talked until after dinner, but we still didn’t understand!
The Shen family has figured it out after some discussion.
Because of Shen Tingci's marriage, at Shen Tingci's age, as long as he is willing to get married, Chen Ying is basically not picky.
The only thing Shen Tingci had to do was to tell his father, Shen Pengfei.
Shen Pengfei was a little surprised to hear that he was getting married.
Hearing that the person he was going to marry was the one he had a blind date with before, Shen Pengfei just frowned and said, "Didn't you say you didn't agree?"
"Well, his family said there's a gap in social status!"
"And now?"
"If you bow your head to marry a daughter-in-law, you raise your head to marry a daughter. Besides, there is not much difference. I convinced them."
"I've already agreed with them that we'll get engaged next month and get married on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month!"
Shen Tingci convinced the Gu family of this point. Shen Pengfei didn't want to say anything, but the engagement was next month, and she had to be married before the New Year. Shen Pengfei couldn't help but ask, "Isn't the time too rushed?"
"Yes, a little, but their family said that time is not a problem. As long as their daughter doesn't suffer any grievances when she marries into our family, that's fine!" Shen Tingci said this while looking at his father.
Shen Pengfei snorted at him unhappily, "Are you using this to hit me?"
Shen Tingci smiled and said, “No!”
"I told you to beat up my mom. Also... once I get married, Tingyu will definitely get married too. When the Jiang family's daughter comes into the family, don't bully my wife. She's more honest!"
Shen Pengfei: “…”
“No one has entered the door…”
"Soon," Shen Tingci interrupted her with a smile.
Shen Pengfei stared at him, and finally nodded as if accepting his fate. "You are almost thirty years old. I believe you know your limits when it comes to doing things. Now that we have discussed it, let your mother prepare it for you."
"It's good for an honest person to do his duty. At least he won't cause trouble for his family!"
Shen Tingci immediately said, "My eldest brother-in-law is already the regiment commander in the army!"
The hidden meaning of Shen Tingci's words was to tell his father not to provoke trouble, because the other person might be more legitimate than you.
Although his father's words may not have meant any harm, he didn't like to hear them.
Shen Pengfei was indeed surprised when he heard this, “Is there a big age difference between her and her brother?”
In Shen Pengfei's impression, one must be at least 35 years old to become a group leader!
In the end, Shen Tingci shook his head and said, "Her brother is about the same age as me, the difference is no more than three years. Maybe I am older."
Shen Pengfei immediately shook his head, “Impossible, how can there be such a young leader.”
"Not officially, maybe, but he is indeed the leader."
"Director Wei is his former boss. If you don't believe me, you can ask around."
