Chapter 143: Collapse, just a little bit away
"These foods and daily necessities were bought by my grandparents in the provincial capital. They chose the best and asked me to send them to you specially. They also told you to take good care of your health, have a good rest, and call them more often when you have time. My grandparents miss you very much."
After these words.
All the reasons why Lin Shijiao appeared in the compound today were explained clearly.
What the sisters-in-law did was even more wrong.
Jiang Ning took the bag that Lin Shijiao handed over.
It was heavy, and my arm sank down.
"Jiaojiao, thank you for coming all the way here. You must have had a hard time on the way. Let's go and sit at my house for a while."
Jiang Ning entertained.
"No."
Lin Shijiao refused coldly.
She looked expressionless, and every nerve in her face was tense.
The corners of his mouth were clenched and his jaw was clenched.
Every word came out.
"I've already had tea, sunflower seeds and peanuts, and lunch. I've taken all the rides I should have taken, and I've also taken the rides I shouldn't have taken. Since you've received the things, I'll go back. The driver is still waiting for me outside."
Lin Shijiao finished her words without waiting for a response or even looking at anyone.
She held her head high and strode forward.
Jiang Ning hurriedly grabbed Lin Shijiao's arm.
"Jiaojiao, are you going back to the provincial capital now?"
"Tomorrow. I have to go down the mountain to see Qingwan. I will stay overnight and go back tomorrow."
Lin Shijiao didn't even turn around to look at Jiang Ning, she answered with her neck stiff.
Jiang Ning held Lin Shijiao's arm and felt her tenseness more clearly.
There was a strong emotion that was almost tearing Lin Shijiao's body apart.
Only by maintaining the pride on her face could she avoid collapsing right now.
Jiang Ning was also feeling conflicted.
This incident was essentially caused by her, and Lin Shijiao was an innocent victim.
But the sisters-in-law did all this out of kindness.
Jiang Ning wanted to comfort Lin Shijiao and explain the situation clearly.
But her relationship with Lin Shijiao did not reach this point.
If she did this now, it might only make Lin Shijiao feel even more uncomfortable.
So after hearing that Lin Shijiao was not leaving immediately but would meet with Gu Qingwan, Jiang Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Qingwan's bold and neat style should be able to ease Lin Shijiao's worries.
"Okay, be careful on the way. When you get there, remember to call Jiulie so that we can rest assured."
"Um."
Lin Shijiao responded coldly.
Then he immediately took a step forward and strode away.
She didn't say another word, didn't look at anyone, and left behind her still proud back.
"Sister Ning, we can't let her go..."
"We haven't said sorry to Miss Jiao yet. We really didn't mean it..."
"We never thought that she was actually sending something to General Qin! This is a case of good intentions leading to bad consequences!"
The sisters-in-law were anxious and panicked, staring at each other, completely unaware of what to do.
Jiang Ning could only comfort her.
"She is still emotional today and it is not appropriate for her to talk about this. I will go down the mountain tomorrow and explain it to her. Sisters-in-law, don't worry. This is not your responsibility. I know you are all doing this for me."
Gradually.
The sisters-in-law felt a little relieved.
only……
Their hearts are still not at peace.
A sister-in-law looked at Jiang Ning nervously and asked in a low voice.
"Sister Ning, do you think Sister Jiao will go back and complain to the old commander Qin? My man has a low military rank and was only promoted to company commander this year. Will he be unable to get promoted in the future?"
This sentence expresses the deepest concerns in everyone's heart.
Jiang Ning immediately shook his head and firmly denied it.
"Lin Shijiao is not that kind of person."
She had always felt that although Lin Shijiao had a bad temper, sometimes she liked to be bossy and her words were not very pleasant.
But at heart, she is still a little girl.
Besides...
"You may not trust Lin Shijiao, but do you not trust Grandpa Qin? Grandpa Qin has been a soldier all his life. Do you think he is the kind of person who can't tell right from wrong?"
The tone of this sentence was quite heavy.
When the sisters-in-law heard this, they immediately shook their heads firmly and felt completely relieved in their hearts.
"Pooh, pooh, pooh! I just said the wrong thing!"
"That's General Qin. He's very smart and would never do such a thing!"
"Listen to Sister Ning. Today's matter has come to this. Next time I see Sister Jiao, I will apologize sincerely. Sister Jiao is actually a good person. She gave my son pencils and books as gifts before."
"She also brought Shanghai perfume for us to use. Have you forgotten?"
"When you mentioned it, I remembered it! The soap in my house was also given to me by her. It smells so good..."
Some things are always remembered only after the fact.
The sisters-in-law talked about the past and remembered how good Lin Shijiao had been in the past. They all looked at each other in surprise. ﹌
Jiang Ning looked at the direction where Lin Shijiao left and sighed silently.
…
Let’s talk about the other side.
Lin Shijiao was leaving the compound at this time.
Her whole body was tense and stiff, and her feet and hands kept moving forward like machines.
If you get closer, you can hear Lin Shijiao talking to herself.
"Humph! You look down on me, and I look down on you even more!"
"What kind of people are they? They don't know how to appreciate a good person!"
"It's okay! Lin Shijiao, it's okay! Don't take these people to heart!"
"They don't deserve any of your affection at all!"
The more Lin Shijiao said this, the more it proved how much she cared in her heart.
She didn't even know when it started, but she had already kept those people in her heart, without even realizing it.
Recalling the last time...
It is also at the gate of this compound.
When the sisters-in-law saw her coming, they all gathered around her.
That time.
She really disliked Jiang Ning and really wanted to teach Jiang Ning a lesson.
The sisters-in-law knew that she was aggressive and domineering, and they also knew that she really had "ulterior motives."
But at that time...
All the sisters-in-law are on her side!
They told her not to be impulsive, but no one actually stopped her from taking action.
You can say that he was just watching the fun, or you can say that he was really feeling sorry for her.
At least at that time, everyone's heart was on her.
but……
It has only been a little over two months now...
Everything has changed...
Everything has changed!
Qin Jiulie, who was obviously her childhood sweetheart, was always cold and indifferent to her, but he was doting and gentle to Jiang Ning.
Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin, who never liked to get close to others, fell in love with Jiang Ning from the first time they saw her and doted on her like their own granddaughter.
Her best friend...
Gu Qingwan had praised Jiang Ning's abilities time and time again, and even started working with her early on.
Now even...even the most opportunistic sisters-in-law have changed.
