As soon as Ji Ling finished speaking, the yard suddenly became quiet, even breathing stopped.

Ji Ke's face turned red, her eyes were red, tears were welling up in her eyes, but she was trying hard to hold them back.

Ji Yong laughed awkwardly twice, trying to cover up the embarrassing situation, "If it's too big, then I won't wear it. I'll take it back and return it tomorrow."

Ji Ling said "oh" and was still very kind not to bring up the matter. Ji Yong also took the opportunity to ask his younger daughter to take the skirt into the house and sent his younger daughter away who was already on the verge of collapse.

As a result, Ji Yong glared at Ji Ling with both anger and amusement.

Ji Ling smiled and whispered, "Dad, I've given you a lot of face. Otherwise, I would have directly asked you how you knew I was coming back and bought me a dress in advance. Don't you think it would be more embarrassing? But you see, I didn't even ask."

Ji Yong poked her head and said, "Xiao Ke is doing this for your own good. You're going to the Tian family for dinner later. She's worried about you because you're still wearing your old clothes when you come back."

Are you worried about being bullied by your mother-in-law?

Ji Ling could guess it, and she was curious whether Zhu Weidong could hear it. She turned her head to look at him and saw that he was also looking at her with a blurry look in his eyes, as if he was looking through her and seeing something else.

Forget it, with this guy who is so face-blind that even his family members have trouble recognizing him, how can he pay attention to these little things?

"I came back in a hurry. My grandfather asked a friend to pick me up from school. I came back without packing my things, so I didn't change my clothes. But I just saw the bag that my mother-in-law asked my brother-in-law to pack for me, and it seemed that my clothes were in it." Ji Ling explained, "There are not many styles of clothes in the store. My mother-in-law specially found a tailor to make them according to my preferences."

"What did your mother-in-law ask your brother-in-law to pack for you?"

After Ji Ling came back, she only briefly talked about these trivial matters at home with Zhu Weidong and did not tell her father. Seeing her father's surprised expression, she smiled and nodded.

"Yes, I was at school at the time and didn't know that grandpa had already greeted everyone. My uncle packed up his things, including the gifts he prepared for you, and went straight to the school to send me to the car. I was in a hurry to get on the road, so I didn't open it to see what I brought. I just went back to the house and looked through it, and there were clothes."

He also explained the reason for wearing old clothes, "At school, everyone goes to study and is eager to learn. It's enough to dress cleanly and appropriately. Dressing nicely can't be used for study. Besides, I came from a small county town, and the local students all wear ordinary clothes. If I surpass them in this aspect, they will say I am vain."

Ji Yong had completely put his mind at ease. From his daughter's words, he could tell how casually she lived in the Zhu family. This relaxed state could not be faked. She was even more comfortable than at home.

That was how it was at home, not like now. Even though his daughter was trying her best to hide it, he could feel that she was uncomfortable.

When Ji Yong tried to figure out why this happened to his biological parents, he felt extremely sad.

He was wrong. He always wanted to give his family a good life, but in the end he forgot that being together as a family is the most important thing. The things that he had ignored and wanted to get away with before were gradually magnified and became the biggest and unchangeable problem.

Ji Ling was stunned for a moment when she realized that what she said did not make her father happy, but instead made him look sad.

"Dad, Xiaoling is busy with school now, so it's not convenient for her to come back. Once she gets a job, she can come back to see you often. Then you can just prepare some delicious food for her."

Zhu Weidong suddenly spoke, and his comforting and caring words made Ji Yong smile again.

You're right, he's just being too picky.

His daughter was still in school and had few holidays, and she had just gotten married and had to take care of her in-laws. It had only been a month since his wife had done that, so how could he be sad?

The son-in-law has a cold personality and doesn't talk much, but he always speaks to people's hearts.

When Ji Ling saw this scene, she suddenly remembered what Zhu Weidong did when she was in the capital. He was very considerate. Why did she think he was not considerate enough before? Maybe she was always misled by his cold appearance? In the west room, even if Ji Ke was lying on the bed, the voices in the yard could be clearly heard by her ears. She couldn't refuse even if she wanted to. When she heard her father asking her sister to change clothes, Ji Ke sat up.

Seeing that the eyes in the mirror were not red, but just had more snow lines, Ji Ke pursed her lips in grievance.

Not wanting to be embarrassed when she went out, she quickly took out some eye drops and put a few drops in, then went to the closet to find her yellow dress and put it on.

Yellow makes her look young and is usually her favorite dress. But when she looked at herself in the mirror, she just couldn't like herself and felt that she looked fat.

But she is obviously thin in front of her friends, but when she stands next to her sister, she looks much fatter.

Ji Ke pinched his waist twice, thinking that it would be better if it were two circles smaller.

In the yard, Ji Yong was shouting, "Xiao Ke, it's time to go."

There was no time to delay, so Ji Kecai had to go out without any worries.

Before I left, I was still thinking about how my sister's clothes were homemade and how they could never compare to those sold in stores.

But the moment I saw the clothes, I was still amazed and my face was burning.

In fact, not only Ji Ke, but also Ji Yong and Zhu Weidong were amazed when they saw it for the first time.

Ji Yong has been out on business all year round and has seen a lot, but this is the first time he has seen someone as dazzling as his daughter, and he still feels a little proud.

Zhu Weidong's eyes darkened a little, and he stared at his wife without any concealment. He felt that beautiful things were to be appreciated, and he never looked away. He didn't even notice that Ji Ling glared at him several times.

Ji Ling was wearing a light pink cheongsam and a student-style hairstyle. She was fair and stood there smiling. She looked intelligent and gentle, with light emanating from her body, as if illuminating everything around her.

When the four of them went to the Tian family in the front yard to have dinner, there were many people helping in the Tian family's yard. When the Ji family came over, all eyes fell on Ji Ling and Zhu Weidong.

Not only is the man handsome, he also has a good temperament. The woman is also beautiful and charming. When they stand together, everyone can admit that they are a perfect match. They can't even say anything against their will.

Tian Jing stared blankly at the man next to Ji Ling, and only came back to her senses when someone next to her pulled her.

"Xiaoling is back. Let them eat at the table in your room." Li Hua warned his daughter with his eyes and pushed her forward.

I was glad that I had not told my daughter about Ji Ling finding an old man, otherwise I would have been slapped in the face again today.

Not to mention that you can't tell that she's old, but just by looking at the noble aura that emanates from her body, even someone as unworldly as her can guess that she's from a high family background.

Ji Yong was familiar with everyone in the courtyard. He greeted everyone and brought Zhu Weidong with him to introduce him to everyone. When they heard that he was the eldest brother-in-law of the Ji family, they were already shocked. When they heard that he was from the capital, their eyes were about to pop out.
