Le Tong originally had some issues with Chen Jing, but after hearing her confession, she vaguely understood that there must have been a conflict after she went back with Zhu Zhizhou. Otherwise, she couldn't have become so enlightened in such a short time.
Little did Le Tong know that Chen Jing had a direct conflict with the entire Zhu family some time ago because of her eldest daughter Zhu Qianying's marriage. Since then, Chen Jing has completely lost faith in the Zhu family.
Because she had given up hope, the realities she had previously pretended not to see or deliberately ignored suddenly became clear when she looked back. With the facts right in front of her, she had no choice but to have a profound realization.
"Ah Jing, don't worry. Xiao Yu is a good girl. As for your eldest daughter, Ying Zi, I haven't met her, but Xiao Huan said she's a very independent and strong girl. So, you should be proud to have such strong and sensible daughters. What happened in the past is wrong, and no one can change it. The key is to turn back in time. From now on, Xiao Yu, Xiao Huan, and Ying Zi will take good care of you, so don't worry too much!"
Le Tong was incredibly clever. Even though Zhu Qianyu hadn't mentioned to her why Chen Jing had gone to R University, Le Tong could easily understand, by connecting the dots and analyzing the situation, that Chen Jing's current situation in the Zhu family must be extremely difficult.
Chen Jing also understood the meaning behind Le Tong's words.
"Thank you for reminding me, Sister Tong. I just discussed this issue with Xiaoyu, Ying'er, and me. Ying'er will come to visit you tomorrow. After I go back, I will never go back to the Zhu family again. There's no point in going back!"
Chen Jing herself did not expect that the goal she had been pursuing for 21 years would feel incredibly easy and pleasant at the moment she decided to let go.
"Mom, I'm relieved that you think this way!"
Zhu Qianyu had been taking care of the two little kids. Now, Beibei and Guoguo weren't playing on the swings anymore. They were lying on the grass, seemingly looking for something. Zhu Qianyu then came over and said something to her mother.
Chen Jing reached out and gently hugged her daughter. "Xiaoyu, Mom was wrong! I'll never make that mistake again! From now on, I'll take good care of you both!"
Looking at the mother and daughter embracing, Le Tong felt her eyes welling up and raised her hand to wipe her eyes.
"Sister Tong, please take good care of Xiaoyu after this. Of course, Ying'er and I will try our best to spend more time with her."
Although her daughter and Letong's son were not yet at the point of discussing marriage, and Chen Jing had not yet met Ji Huan, she felt that with such a family, Ji Huan must be a good man, and therefore, worthy of her daughter's entrustment of her life.
That night, Chen Jing had a pleasant time with the Ji family, and her previous worries were completely dispelled after their interaction.
That evening, the mother and daughter had their first heart-to-heart talk in over a decade.
Originally, Chen Jing was quite unhappy about being forced to go to R City. Now, she was actually grateful to Zhu Zhizhou for forcibly bringing her here. Otherwise, she probably wouldn't have known for a long time that her youngest daughter had found a good home.
The next day, Zhu Qianying rushed over from L City. Just as she expected, the Ji family members were all wise and loyal. They were very shrewd to outsiders, but extremely considerate and understanding to their own people.
Like Yan Shao's family of three, the Ji family gave Zhu Qianying a very intimate and unpretentious feeling, and the family atmosphere was extremely harmonious and loving.
Including a pair of twins who are just over a year old, they are also incredibly clever and clingy. As soon as they met, they clung to Zhu Qianying, calling her "Auntie, Auntie," which made Zhu Qianying tease her younger sister.
"Xiaoyu, look how adorable Brother Ji and his wife are! You and Ji Huan should quickly become a pair of clowns too!"
Then, seeing her younger sister stammering and blushing, Zhu Qianying realized that the little girl was only eighteen, and even Ji Huan was only twenty-one. These two little brats probably hadn't even tasted meat yet.
Zhu Qianying secretly probed further, and her younger sister immediately emitted green smoke from her head, which made Zhu Qianying even more certain of her idea.
In her heart, she liked and admired her brother-in-law Ji Huan even more.
You should know that for a young man in his early twenties, full of vigor and vitality, handing over the initiative and control in bed to his girlfriend is not only a sign of gentlemanly conduct, but also a sign of his heartfelt love and respect for his girlfriend.
"Xiaoyu, cherish Young Master Ji! There aren't many good men like him anymore! Or you could say they're almost extinct!"
When Zhu Qianying said this to her younger sister, Xiaoyu's eyes immediately reddened, "Sister, you and Young Master Yan..."
Zhu Qianying quickly ruffled the little girl's hair, "Silly girl, Yan Shao and I are doing very well, don't overthink it. Maybe you'll be my aunt soon!"
Regarding the issue of the baby, Zhu Qianying had long been quite aware of it.
She wasn't stupid. From the very beginning of the selection process, she understood that Young Master Yan's generous offer wasn't just about finding a wife; more importantly, it was about having offspring for the Yan family.
Seeing the silly girl's stunned and incredulous expression, Zhu Qianying comforted her in a very self-deceptive way.
"Silly boy, with Yan Shao's excellent genes, plus your sister's genes as a cosmic-level beauty, your nephew will definitely not be worse than Beibei and Guoguo, don't worry!"
After a while, Xiaoyu finally came to her senses and cautiously glanced at Zhu Qianying's stomach.
Zhu Qianying chuckled and patted her head. "Hey, don't think you can just stare at other people's bellies just because you're a girl. I'm scared!"
Xiaoyu blinked and pointed to her stomach, "Sister... there's probably already filling in here, isn't there?"
Zhu Qianying burst out laughing, "Of course there's filling inside! Otherwise, do you think your sister is a freak, with a vacuum inside her belly?"
Zhu Qianyu shook her head. "No, sister, you understand what I mean!"
Zhu Qianying feigned ignorance and shook her head, "I don't understand!"
Zhu Qianyu had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain, "I meant the baby."
Zhu Qianying shook her head again, "No..."
She's not stupid; she would never do something like getting pregnant out of wedlock.
Firstly, she would not use her child as leverage, as her own childhood was devoid of happiness, and therefore she did not want her child to become a victim of some kind of interest.
Secondly, even if her initial intention in marrying Yan Shao was for financial gain, she still hoped to live a respectful life with him in the future. Even if there was no love between them, at least they could both find some happiness in the marriage.
Therefore, she actually hoped that, after setting aside the most basic exchange of interests, she and Yan Shao could get along purely, instead of becoming enemies or adversaries who suspected and schemed against each other. Just thinking about such a life was exhausting!
Of course, these things might be unrealistic for her and Yan Shao's relationship, but she has always held onto this idea.
