“You’re right. Since I can’t figure it out, I’ll just ask him directly. Even if he doesn’t tell me, I can still try to persuade him not to overthink it.”
This is what I told Zhang Qinghua before Song Lili fell asleep.
The next morning, after Song Lili got up, she kept thinking about this matter.
When it was almost time, I called Song Jianshe and asked him to give me the phone number for Wu Jiang's house.
Song Lili decided to call Wu Jiang herself.
In the end, however, the person who answered the phone was not Wu Jiang himself, but Wu Huan.
Song Lili only asked about the situation in the past two days, and Wu Huan didn't know why Wu Jiang disagreed.
Because Wu Jiang never told Wu Huan this.
To be honest, Song Lili felt really helpless. She felt like she was hitting cotton, with no point of leverage, which made her feel very frustrated.
Finally, Song Lili couldn't wait any longer at home, so she decided to go home and see for herself.
Song Lili still remembered Wu Jiang's kindness and how good he had been to her, which is why she made the trip.
If it were just a normal family relationship, Song Lili didn't intend to meddle in this matter.
But what could they do? Wu Jiang was their uncle. And this uncle was a very good uncle to them.
Song Lili told Zhang Qinghua about her decision, and Zhang Qinghua did not object.
The truth is, Song Li was irritable and absent-minded at home, and couldn't do anything else at all.
So it's better to let Song Lili go home directly. Let her go and see what's going on.
At that time, she would have felt at ease, and the current situation wouldn't have occurred.
“Since you’ve decided to go back, then go back and visit your uncle. He’s sick, so we should go back.”
"But this time, I can't go back with you either. I can't make arrangements for my work, so I can't take leave."
In fact, when the problem arose in Wujiang, Zhang Qinghua had already considered taking leave.
However, his workplace simply wouldn't allow him to take leave.
Because a project has recently reached a critical stage, and Zhang Qinghua is the person in charge of the entire project, he cannot leave, so he can only send Song Lili back alone.
Song Lili didn't care about any of this; she knew perfectly well what was going on in her heart. Zhang Qinghua couldn't go with her because he was busy with work; otherwise, he definitely would have come back with her.
"Then you should stay at home. The children at home also need to be taken care of. I'll go back and see what's going on. When things are more or less settled over there, I'll come back with Dad and the others."
Because of the matter in Wujiang, Song Yongren and his group were delayed and have been staying in Hongqi Village, and have not yet returned.
If everything goes smoothly when she goes back this time, Song Lili won't stay in Hongqi Village for long; she'll return to the capital with Zhang Shengtian and the others.
"I'll be at home, so don't worry about home. I'll take care of everything here. Go home with peace of mind, and please tell your uncle I'm sorry. I don't have time to go back."
Zhang Qinghua still felt guilty. He couldn't be with Song Lili at such a crucial time, and he felt extremely guilty.
They were also afraid that Wu Jiang and the others would have objections.
"Okay, I understand. I'll talk to my uncle and the others. Don't worry about me. I'll go back and check on things, and then I'll be back. You don't need to worry about me."
Song Lili wasn't afraid to walk alone, after all, she had walked this route many times.
After the couple discussed it and agreed, Song Lili began preparing to go home.
Although she was worried about Wu Jiang's illness, Song Lili still bought gifts for her uncle's family before boarding the train home.
It was two or three days later when Song Lili arrived at Hongqi Village.
Song Lili hadn't told Zhang Shengtian that she was going home, so Zhang Shengtian was very surprised when he saw Song Lili suddenly appear at his door.
"Lili, why did you suddenly come back? Is something the matter?"
Lili wouldn't make a special trip unless there was a reason.
"It's about your uncle, isn't it?"
Zhang Shengtian had heard that Wu Jiang was in poor health, and Zhang Shengtian and Song Yongren had even visited Wu Jiang at his home.
Therefore, Zhang Shengtian guessed that Song Lili's return home was because of Wu Jiang.
Song Lili returned because of Wu Jiang, so she wouldn't hide it from Zhang Shengtian.
“I just wanted to come back and visit. I didn’t know what the situation was like for my uncle. I was thinking that if possible, I would take them to Ducheng, where the medical conditions are better.”
Most importantly, Song Lili didn't want Wu Jiang to go back on his word again.
Once all their people are brought to the capital, Wu Jiang won't be able to do whatever he wants anymore.
After all, the capital city was Song Lili's territory. At that time, Wu Jiang was the one who listened to Song Lili.
Song Lili's purpose in coming here this time was also here.
Zhang Shengtian nodded, "That's true. After all, we've helped with things in the capital, and we also have people we know there."
So even if you need help, you can find someone.
Zhang Shengtian was more in favor of Song Lili persuading Wu Jiang to go to Ducheng.
However, Wu Jiang's attitude made Zhang Shengtian a little worried.
Song Lili had been traveling for two or three days, so she didn't go to her home in Wujiang immediately.
She rested well at home for one night, and the next day, Song Lili went to the Fifth Brigade and called Song Lijianshe.
"Lili, why did you suddenly come back?" Song Jianshe was very surprised when he saw Song Lili.
Song Lili's decision to go home was impromptu, and she didn't tell anyone else; she returned alone.
Sure enough, everyone was very surprised when they saw her.
"I've come to see what's going on with Uncle. Big brother, have you told Uncle everything I told you?"
Song Jianshe was also very helpless. "Of course I told him, and I even assured my uncle that I would find my cousin a job. There's no need to worry about the money at all."
"But my uncle still disagreed in the end. He was adamant that he would take his medicine at home and not go anywhere else."
“Come with me again today. I’ll try to talk to my uncle and see what he’s really thinking. Is there anything else he’s holding back?”
"I don't know either. My uncle won't say. Anyway, he doesn't go to the hospital, and he won't say anything else when I ask him."
Wu Jiang is like a gourd with its mouth sawed off; if someone asks him ten questions, he won't answer a single one.
As long as you don't talk about his illness, Wu Jiang is very easy to talk to.
