“You don’t understand my sister at all. No matter how difficult things get, she would never ask for help. I know this is a bit difficult for you, but I still think you can help her. My sister protected you a lot when you were little, right? She truly treats you like a younger sister.” Lin Mingyue said anxiously.
"I didn't say I wouldn't help. I still stand by what I said before: what we need to do now is wait and see."
So as not to ruin Lin Shiyue's plan.
Lin Zhaoyue guessed that she must have other ideas.
Anyway, I won't really swallow this humiliation.
"Alright, take a break," Jiang Jingzhou interrupted them, saying they should get some rest, as they would be arriving at their destination in a few hours.
"..." Lin Mingyue glanced at Jiang Jingzhou and said nothing more.
I really envy Lin Zhaoyue; this woman has had a lucky life since childhood.
Why can't she have such a good man?
——
The compound
It was quite late when Lin Zhaoyue and her husband arrived home. Their parents-in-law didn't know they were coming back today, so they didn't leave the door open.
Jiang Jingzhou was planning to climb over the wall, but Lin Zhaoyue, seeing what he was about to do, grabbed his arm. "Wait a minute..."
Why bother climbing over the wall when you could just knock on the door? What if you accidentally get hurt late at night?
"Knock on the door,"
Jiang Jingzhou wanted to say that the wall over his house wasn't high at all; he could easily climb over it.
But now that he's married, and his wife is doing this for his own good, he should listen to her.
"good,"
Knock on the door.
Who is it?
Jiang Guofu got up and opened the door.
Seeing that it was the two of them, I was a little surprised. "You're back so soon? Why didn't you stay in the countryside for a few more days?" to spend more time with Zhaoyue's dad.
"Come back early if there's nothing else."
Jiang Jingzhou said, "I'll go boil some water first, then I can take a hot bath and rest."
"Okay, have you two eaten? If not, I'll go make you something right now!"
"have eaten,"
"Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll head back to my room. You two should get some rest too."
"Thank you, Dad."
"..." Lin Zhaoyue could sense that her father-in-law's attitude towards her had changed, perhaps because of the child in her womb, or perhaps for something else.
In any case, Lin Zhaoyue felt truly fortunate to have met Jiang Jingzhou.
That night, only when she lay soundly back in bed did Lin Zhaoyue feel as if her trip back to the countryside had been a dream.
Now the dream is over.
"What are you thinking about here instead of sleeping at night?"
Jiang Jingzhou quickly finished showering and came into the house, still damp. Lin Zhaoyue shook her head, "It's nothing."
"You have to tell me everything, only then will I know what you're thinking, okay?"
"I don't have anything to say," Lin Zhaoyue really didn't want to say anything; her mind was just a bit of a mess.
"..." Jiang Jingzhou lay down and naturally reached out to hug Lin Zhaoyue. "If you don't want to say anything, then rest well. Don't you have to go to school tomorrow? I'll take you there."
"You've already taken up several days of my time by coming back with me. Mom will definitely be going to school with me tomorrow, so you don't need to go."
Lin Zhaoyue didn't want to put Jiang Jingzhou through all this trouble; she was already exhausted.
I'm sure I haven't been sleeping well these past few days in the countryside, and I haven't been eating much either.
"I'm fine,"
Even if Jiang Jingzhou is exhausted, he is definitely not as exhausted as Lin Zhaoyue.
She was pregnant and still had to go through all this trouble. Jiang Jingzhou comforted her, "Don't worry about Dad's situation. Once things calm down, maybe some new policies will come out, and then you can come back!"
“When we went back this time, I learned about their situation. Didn’t Mom say she had arranged for someone to take good care of them? Why is it still like this?”
Lin Zhaoyue had a feeling that maybe the person hadn't done their job properly.
"I also find this matter quite strange. I'll ask about it again tomorrow."
"Don't ask anymore. What if Mom misunderstands and thinks I'm complaining about her?" That's not what she meant at all.
"No, Mom has always been one to say what she thinks and would never misunderstand anyone. She doesn't keep anything to herself."
Lin Zhaoyue: "..."
The next morning, she clearly told Jiang Jingzhou the night before not to tell his mother, but he still did it!
Hua Xiuyun explained to Lin Zhaoyue, "I need to ask again what exactly happened. How are your father and the others now? Is anyone making things difficult for them? Jingzhou, why didn't you help your father-in-law with this matter when you went back this time?"
"It's all taken care of. They shouldn't dare to cause any more trouble in the short term."
Jiang Jingzhou's voice was calm.
"That's good."
Hua Xiuyun nodded slightly, "Zhaoyue, then wait a little longer. Don't worry, Mom will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation!"
"Mom, I didn't mean to blame you, I just..."
“I know, I was the one who told you this in the first place, and since things didn’t turn out well, I’m partly responsible.”
Hua Xiuyun's expression was solemn. "As for your younger brother, I've asked around. If he does well in his studies, he can be exceptionally arranged to study in the city. After all, with you as his older sister, what the country needs most right now is talent cultivation."
"Mom, so you mean Xiaobao can come to the city to study?"
Lin Zhaoyue was somewhat excited.
"right."
Hua Xiuyun nodded again, "That's right, then you should wait a little longer. We won't know the exact information for at least another two days."
"Okay, I'll wait."
As long as we have news, that means it's coming soon!
Lin Zhaoyue breathed a sigh of relief. Actually, the most important thing is that the conditions in the city are better, and it would be best to study here.
Going to school is the only way out, just like her.
"Hurry up and eat, then we'll go to school."
Hua Xiuyun peeled two more tea eggs for Lin Zhaoyue. "Eat them."
"Mom, I wasn't very hungry last night, and I can't eat anything right now..."
I ate too much.
What's more, these are two eggs, and I just ate a meat bun, and I still have to finish all the wontons in the bowl.
"Eat up. I've noticed you've lost weight these past few days. You must have been exhausted from traveling. You need to make sure you eat well."
You've lost weight?
Lin Zhaoyue didn't feel thinner.
Could it be that I've been eating the same meals every day for the past few days, and that I've been eating a lot at each meal?
During the second trimester, women often feel hungry.
Lin Zhaoyue thoughtfully raised her hand and touched her belly, where the baby was growing rapidly.
She hopes that her father and younger brother will be in the city when the children are born.
There's one more thing,
Yesterday, the bureau came to us to inquire about the situation—or rather, to see you. They wanted to know the general details of Zhao Yufen's case. It seems she ran away with someone. They have some information, but they're not sure if it's her. They asked when you'd be free to come to the bureau to identify her.
What trouble has Zhao Yufen gotten herself into?!
She really never sits still.
