Although she got up late during the day, pregnant women are always easily tired. After returning home, Ji Ling took a shower and went to bed. While she was sleeping, Zhu Weidong was still sorting out his documents and materials.
When she woke up the next day, Ji Ling faintly heard someone talking in the living room. She recognized Zhu Weidong's voice, and the other voice also sounded familiar.
But that person shouldn't be in the house.
Ji Ling got up and went to the living room. Seeing the person sitting on the sofa in the living room, Ji Ling pursed her lips and asked, "How did you find my house?"
Wang Ermei stood up quickly and said with a smile, "Ji Ling, I'm sorry to bother you by coming here without your permission."
After apologizing, she explained why she was here, "I called home and my mom asked for your parents' address. I came here to give money to my sister."
younger sister?
It sounds quite smooth.
Ji Ling said, "Oh, by the way, when your mother found me when I went back this time, I was quite surprised because I didn't tell anyone that Sanmei was with me. I heard from your mother that it was my classmate who told you. I wonder who it was?"
Wang Ermei explained, "One day I met a woman. When she saw me, she called me and said she had mistaken me. My mother wrote to me saying Sanmei had run away from home, so I guessed that she might have seen Sanmei, so I asked her one more question. When she said she was a student of your Peking University, I asked her if she knew you. She said she was your classmate and said she had seen me. I told her that we were twins, and then she suddenly realized. We only said a few words at that time and didn't have time to ask her name. But she was a little dark, but she was wearing a red tweed coat. It was the first time I saw such a bright red color. My classmates also said that it was not available in the capital. I heard that it was only available in the port city, but not in large quantities."
Gao Jing!
Ji Ling immediately thought of it. She didn't know how Gao Jing saw Wang Sanmei. Could it be that Wang Sanmei went to school to find her last time and Gao Jing saw her? Did she overhear their conversation again? Thinking of how deep Gao Jing's thoughts were, Ji Ling felt that she was not wrong to think so.
Ji Ling nodded, "Then I know who it is."
Wang Ermei smiled and asked Ji Ling to say thank you. Ji Ling smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely help you to say thank you."
"By the way, where is Sanmei now? I came here this time just to see her. We haven't seen each other since I went to school. She didn't pass the college entrance examination and her mental state was not very good. I left home later and didn't have time to care about her. Now we are all here and we can see each other often in the future. Although my parents are angry, I have already persuaded them and they didn't say anything. I also want to persuade her. There is no overnight hatred with family members."
Wang Ermei is well-spoken, sensible, considerate, and behaves like an older sister.
Unfortunately, she didn't know that the better she performed, the more terrifying Ji Ling thought she was. She had clearly snatched her sister's college place, but she still described her sister as a mental patient without any guilt. How cruel must her heart be.
"Breakfast is ready. Do you want to eat now?" Zhu Weidong suddenly interrupted.
Before Ji Ling could say anything, Zhu Weidong said, "Then I'll set the table now."
Then he looked at Wang Ermei and said, "I'm sorry, Ji Ling is pregnant and can't starve."
Wang Ermei said awkwardly, "I should be the one to say sorry. I am also going to look for my sister. Ji Ling, just tell me where Sanmei is and I will go straight to her."
"Let me ask Sanmei about this first. She didn't even let me tell your family about what happened with me. Now your family knows about it and comes to your house again. I don't know how to explain it to her. As for whether she will see you or not, I'll tell you after I ask her. Please leave me your school phone number." Ji Ling was already being polite.
"Okay, thank you for your help then." Wang Ermei left her phone number and left.
Ji Ling saw the person off to the door, and before she could say goodbye, the door was closed by Zhu Weidong.
"If you don't like it, don't force yourself." Zhu Weidong pulled her to sit at the dining table. "When she came to me, I just said it was Ji Ling's house, and she walked right in."
Ji Ling said, "Of course she is anxious to find Wang Sanmei."
Ji Ling tilted her head and looked at him, "Actually, you're right to hate her. I don't like her either, because she's such a terrible person."
Zhu Weidong said, "Indeed."
"Can you tell?"
"I don't even remember what she looked like, so what can I tell? I instinctively don't like her impolite behavior. Besides, someone you don't like is definitely not a good person."
Is this considered domination? Ji Ling was in a good mood. While eating, she told Zhu Weidong about the three sisters. "Now Sanmei is managing the main store while studying on her own, waiting to take the college entrance examination. I wonder if I can find a school for her to enroll in in the next few days?"
"Just rest and take care of yourself. I'll let Yao Wu handle this matter. He needs to find something to do right now."
Ji Ling was very curious, "Why do you say that?"
"He stays at home, and is scolded by his grandparents and taught by his father every day. If he can go out to play by doing errands, do you think he will be happy?"
Ji Ling nodded, "He's going to repeat his studies after that year?"
She remembered this idea at home.
"It depends on him. If he really doesn't like it, there's nothing we can do." Zhu Weidong is more open-minded than his elders on this matter. "Your life is your own. You have to make your own decisions. If you live according to other people's requirements, you are living for others."
"Calling you an engineer is understating your literary talent. You should be a scholar."
Zhu Weidong said, "I wanted to study Chinese when I was in school, but later I switched to design."
"Why?" Ji Ling thought she knew Zhu Weidong very well, but after getting along with him, she found that she didn't seem to understand him at all.
"There are more girls studying Chinese." When Zhu Weidong said this, he seemed to think of something unpleasant and frowned.
Although it was very quick, Ji Ling still found out. She was like she had discovered a new world. "You are so beautiful, do you have a lot of suitors? There are a lot of suitors among your classmates, right? There are also people pursuing you among your colleagues at work, right?"
"To me, they are all strangers." Zhu Weidong told the truth.
If this answer came from someone else, it would sound like a lie, but when it came from Zhu Weidong, it was impossible to question it, and people could even be sure that it was an honest person speaking the truth.
Ji Ling smiled and said, "Then I got a great bargain."
The good seedlings that her husband's family had nurtured for so many years were pulled out by her. It was obvious that the Zhu family had helped the most, even when the Ji family was in crisis, but at this moment, Ji Ling felt that she had taken a great advantage.
