Along the way, Zhu Weidong slowed down and followed behind Ji Ling.

This feeling made Ji Ling think that Zhu Weidong was a well-mannered man. He would not act like a male chauvinist and take the lead, but would protectively step behind women.

Having lived for two lifetimes, Ji Ling has not met many men as well-educated as her.

After getting off the bus, you can see the main gate of the compound. Ji Ling took a few steps when Zhu Weidong held her hand.

Ji Ling's body stiffened for a moment, then immediately relaxed.

Zhu Weidong said, "I'm not at home, I'm afraid that others will misunderstand that I don't care about you and will look down on you."

Ji Ling: In other words, if no one looked down on her, he wouldn't have held her hand and walked away? Zhu Weidong felt that his wife was unhappy, and he couldn't figure out what he did wrong. He thought that he had explained to her the reason for holding her hand, and he didn't mean to take advantage of her.

Or was she angry that he would leave tomorrow after returning? He went straight to school after getting off the train, and had already squeezed out as much time as possible to spend with her.

Zhu Weidong felt that his wife was a sensible person and would not care about this.

That's something else.

The two of them walked home hand in hand, each with their own thoughts.

Soon the news spread among everyone that Zhu Weidong had returned, holding his wife's hand.

The eldest son of the Zhu family has a cold personality. He usually never greets people when he meets them, but just walks past them without paying any attention to them. Surprisingly, he also has such a gentle side.

It was Monday. People like He Tong and Chang Ya were busy and had not returned home yet. Only Kang Xiaohua, a teacher, had returned home after get off work.

As luck would have it, when I got home, I heard my father praising Zhu Weidong.

Kang Xiaohua sneered, "No matter how good Zhu Weidong is, he is not your son."

Kang Shichang's face darkened. "What are you talking about, you bastard?"

Kang Xiaohua strode upstairs and said, "Human words, you are angry because I touched your heart. You wish everyone in your family could be replaced like the Zhu family."

"Stop right there, you bastard."

Kang Xiaohua didn't care what he said and went upstairs quickly.

"Look at what he has become to you. Arrange for him to go on a blind date next week, and then get married and move out to live on your own right away."

Li Cuilan didn't dare to answer.

Kang's mother came out of the bedroom, "Why are you yelling at Cuilan? Xiaohua has a temper like yours. No one can stop her from doing something she doesn't want to do."

Kang Shichang lost all his temper in front of his mother.

Kang's mother asked her daughter-in-law, "Cui Lan, I remember Xiao Hua once liked a girl. She was his classmate, right? What happened to her later?"

Li Cuihua shook her head, "Xiaohua didn't tell me."

"You can't ask if he doesn't tell you?"

"Okay, why are you yelling?" Kang's mother scolded her son, "Let someone find out whether that female classmate is married. If not, find someone to act as a matchmaker so that the two children can talk."

Kang's mother was also angry because her grandson was still not married at this age.

"Weidong is back, I'll go ask Weidong, they are classmates, he should know." Kang Shichang stood up, straightened his clothes, and went out.

Kang's mother watched her son leave before she angrily scolded her daughter-in-law, "Look at you, your family didn't make you angry, but you just can't stand up straight. Shichang yelled at you because he was angry. Don't blame him."

Li Cuihua walked over and helped her mother-in-law sit down. "Mom, I know. I don't blame him."

Kang's mother shook her head.

I know that what I just said was in vain.

Other mothers-in-law hope that their sons can control their daughters-in-law, but she hopes that her daughter-in-law can be tough and argue with her son.

After having him around for all these years, no matter how I taught him, he wouldn't change, so I just ignored it.

At the Zhu family, Zhu Weidong had just put down his things when they heard someone ringing the doorbell.

Kang Shichang stood at the door, "Is Weidong on vacation?"

"Please come in." Zhu Weidong invited the person in.

Kang Shichang came in unceremoniously, and when he saw Ji Ling inside, he introduced himself with a smile, "Is this Ji Ling? I'm Kang Xiaohua's father, you can just call me Uncle Kang."

"Uncle Kang, is there something you want to talk about?" Zhu Weidong asked after sitting down.

"It's about Xiaohua. He had a female classmate named Chi Fangping when he was in school. She works in the same unit as you now, right? I want to ask you about her situation." Kang Shichang asked directly.

"She is from the same company. She is in the accounting department now. She is also with us during the railway construction in the north." Zhu Weidong asked, "What does Uncle Kang want to know about her?"

"Personal problem. I remember when you were in school, she often came to the compound to play. I wonder how her personal problem is now?"

Zhu Weidong understood, "I got divorced last year and I'm alone now."

"Divorced?" Kang Shichang felt sorry when he heard that.

Zhu Weidong nodded, "I don't know exactly what happened."

"It's okay, this is enough." Kang Shichang sat for a while before getting up and saying goodbye.

After sending Kang Shichang away, Ji Ling asked, "Is he looking for a date for his son? Could it be that Kang Xiaohua likes that female classmate of yours?"

Zhu Weidong nodded, "Kang Xiaohua pursued Chi Fangping when we were in school, but was rejected by Chi Fangping."

Ji Ling suddenly thought of what Chang Ya had said to her. She stared at Zhu Weidong, wondering whether she should ask him.

Zhu Wei said, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Ji Ling felt that she was a little sensitive.

Chang Ya said that Zhu Weidong had someone he liked, and she was a female classmate, but he didn't know Chi Fangping, so it was obvious that she was not the one he liked, let alone Bai Yueguang.

Seeing that she was fine, Zhu Weidong said he wanted to call the old house and the hospital. Ji Ling asked him to make the call and she went upstairs.

She had slept in Zhu Weidong's room before. The two of them had obtained their marriage certificate but had not held a wedding, so it was naturally impossible for them to sleep together. Ji Ling did not tidy up her bedding, so Zhu Weidong naturally went to sleep in the guest room at night.

She packed her things and went downstairs. Zhu Weidong had just put down the phone when he heard some noise on the stairs. He looked up and asked, "Did you go out to climb the mountain with the male senior?"

Ji Ling raised an eyebrow, "Mom told you that?"

Walking down the stairs, Ji Ling smiled and said, "It was an autumn outing organized by the school. A female classmate in the dormitory brought her brother, who happened to be our senior."

"Is it Jiang Zheng?"

Ji Ling's eyes widened, "Do you know him?"

"Her mother and Chang Ya's mother are classmates, and Chang Ya's mother and my mother work in the same hospital." Zhu Weidong explained.

Although it was a bit confusing, Ji Ling still understood, "So it was Chang Ya's mother and mother who proposed it?"

Zhu Weidong nodded.

Ji Ling asked again, "Is there a rumor that I have a bad lifestyle?"

"Won't."

Ji Ling rolled her eyes, thinking that you think well of this person, but the news got out, and the fact that you said you went hiking with seniors, and didn't even mention the autumn outing organized by the school, you can see how sinister your intentions are.

What surprised her was that Jiang Zheng and Chang Ya knew each other. So, when Jiang Zheng snatched her bed at school, was it a deliberate target?

But one thing is certain, Jiang Zheng knows her. Compared with Ji Ling, who is standing in the open, Jiang Zheng is standing in the dark. If she really wants to do something, she can only bear it.

Ji Ling looked at Zhu Weidong with satisfaction.

Very good, I came back and found out a secret for her.

Although she had only known her mother-in-law for a short time, Ji Ling believed that she would not think too much about what she heard, so she did not care about it. "Mom, will you come back for dinner tonight?"

"Mom said she would be back in the evening, but she won't be able to make it in time for dinner." Zhu Weidong stood up, "You go to the mountains, I'll cook."

Ji Ling raised her eyebrows and asked with interest, "Is this okay?"

Zhu Weidong looked at her and didn't understand what she meant for a moment.

Ji Ling was afraid that he would go back on his word, so she immediately said, "Just make something simple, it's just the two of us anyway."
