"She came a few more times and everything in the house was gone."

"It's just some stuff, why are you so stingy?"

"I'm not mean, I just don't like her."

Old Mrs. Zhu sat under a tree in the yard. The autumn sun was strong, but the wind was cool, and Mrs. Zhu looked comfortable.

"The little girl is a little shrewd, but it doesn't matter. She is your sister-in-law's sister. For your sister-in-law's sake, her attitude cannot be so bad."

"She is very thoughtful. We are each other's daughters, and she is spoiled like a princess." Ji Ling looked like someone who was picked up.

Old Mrs. Zhu glanced at her grandson with a smile, then closed her eyes and slowly rocked the rocking chair. Zhu Yaowu's face heated up slightly, "Grandma, I didn't lie. Take her father's accident for example. Her mother kept blaming Ji Ling and even sold Ji Ling's college admission letter."

"That's how things are in the world. If your sister-in-law's mother hadn't sold the university admission letter, how would your eldest brother have had the chance to marry someone? This is called the butterfly effect. It seems like a bad thing, but it's also a good thing. Everything in the world is like this. There is a cause and an effect. Just let everything take its course."

Zhu Yaowu sat aside, "Grandma, don't you think they are being hypocritical? They were always so stubborn and didn't want our family to help them. They were also selling Ji Ling's college admission letter. Now they are trying to be nice and come over to give us gifts."

"I have never met your sister-in-law's mother. From what she has done, I can see that she is a strong-willed person and she favors her youngest daughter. She would rather sell her college admission letter than accept our help, which is understandable. The latter is just selling the college admission letter. With your sister-in-law's ability, it is easy for her to get admitted to a factory as a formal worker. After going to college, she will also work. The final results of both are the same. In her opinion, there is nothing wrong. As for accepting our help, it is help, but it is selling her daughter. If you were in our place, which one would you choose?"

Zhu Yaowu stopped talking.

"As a person, you need to think from other people's perspectives. You will see different things from different perspectives. So, just be yourself and don't tell others what to do. She is visiting our family now because she knows that this matter cannot be changed and she doesn't want our family to look down on her, so she is taking the initiative to visit us."

Zhu Yaowu understood, "After all, it's all for her face. This person really cares about face."

"Since the two families are married, they should get along well. If you are always calculating, it will be troublesome. You may not understand this now, but when you have a wife in the future, you will understand how difficult it is to be caught between your parents and your Yue family."

"I want to find a wife, so you have to listen to me."

Seeing her grandson speaking harshly, Old Lady Zhu said nothing more, thinking that even though she was being tough now, he would eventually give in.

Ji Ke came back home with the wine. Xu Fang saw her daughter bringing something back again and pursed her lips. Although she didn't say anything, her expression looked unhappy.

Ji Yong was cheerful, "Didn't you tell your grandma Zhu that if you take more things, our house won't be able to accommodate them?"

"She said that Grandma Zhu told us to give it to Grandpa and Grandpa."

Ji Yong, "As for the wine from before, divide it up and bring it back to your grandpa and grandfather when you return to the city someday."

Ji Ke responded crisply and went to put the things away.

Xu Fang dusted off her apron and sat down next to her husband. "Are you really planning to buy out your job?"

Buying out a job means that the company pays a sum of money and the job is taken back by the company.

"I didn't go to Jianhua's factory, but I can guess from the letter Ji Ke brought back that the soap will not have trouble selling. The money Jianhua borrowed can be repaid after the first batch of soap is produced. As long as the factory starts running, soap will be produced continuously. Can you calculate how much money this factory can make a year?"

Xu Fang opened her mouth.

I'm afraid they won't be able to earn more than the factory's annual income even if they work their entire lives.

"I used to have carpentry skills. After I finish my job, I plan to open a custom furniture store and sell finished furniture."

Xu Fang frowned, "Can anyone buy it?"

"I've seen it in the south. It's selling very well. The finished furniture is in good shape and has many styles. It will definitely sell well."

"I don't understand these. Since you've made up your mind, just follow your decision." Xu Fang lowered her eyes. "I stopped Jianhua last time and you almost died. I've been reflecting on this these days. I really care too much and don't know much. No wonder the kids have a problem with me."

Ji Yong held his wife's hand and said, "It's been a while since we last met Xiaoling. I'll talk to her later."

"No need. I am sorry for her. She is married well now. It is her own blessing. I did not help her, and I will not earn this blessing." Xu Fang stood up. "Let's have dumplings tonight. Let Xiaoke bring the wine back to the city tomorrow."

Ji Yong looked at his wife's back, not knowing how to persuade her.

The wife was regretting, but she couldn't let go of her status and admit her mistake to her daughter. It had only been a short time since her wife did it, and Ji Yong couldn't ask his daughter to forgive her.

In the west room, Ji Ke saw this scene and secretly turned his head back.

She went to the outer room to help and asked carefully, "Mom, Tian Jing is getting married on October 1st, and she invited me to the wedding."

"Then go back to the city a few days later, and go back after drinking your favorite wine." Xu Fang said, "Tian Jing doesn't look honest, she is thoughtful. Did you tell her about your sister's marriage? The next day, your aunt Li came to ask me what happened. She heard that our family doesn't want to tell anyone now, so she promised to keep it a secret. When you meet her in the future, don't mention our family affairs."

"Mom, have I gotten into trouble again?" Ji Ke lowered his head guiltily.

"It has nothing to do with you. I didn't tell you not to tell anyone. Besides, how could you tell her about this for no reason? I can imagine how she tried to trick you. It was she who spread the rumor that your sister cheated in the college entrance examination. That was not a misunderstanding. Your Aunt Li is a decent person. She took her to apologize and explain to everyone. That's why I let her off. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let her off easily."

"I see. Should I go to her wedding?"

"Go, why not? If you don't want to see her, you have to see your Aunt Li."

"But that day Tian Jing asked me if my sister would come back for the National Day holiday."

Xu Fang paused slightly, "She won't come back. Just tell anyone who asks you this in the future."

Ji can agree to it.

Back in the capital, Ji Ling also had a seven-day holiday for the National Day holiday. She wanted to go back to her old house during these seven days. However, just as she packed her things on Friday, Zhu Heping came to her in a hurry and asked her to take her things and go with him.

Ji Ling had packed her things long ago. Zhu Heping took the bag from her hand and strode ahead to lead the way. "Grandpa's friend happened to be driving back to the old house to do some work. He was in a hurry. The two of us took turns driving and we will be there in two days. Grandpa was worried that you would miss home, so he asked him to take you back. Fortunately, he also rushed back before the end of the holiday."

Ji Ling wanted to refuse, but it was arranged by her grandfather, and the other party was already waiting at the school gate. So Zhu Heping stuffed Ji Ling into the car and stuffed an envelope in her hand, saying that it contained money given to her by her mother.
