The two of them had noodles outside at noon. When they got home in the afternoon, Ji Ling thought about washing the dirty clothes. Since it was a holiday, she had to go back to the old house tomorrow.

When she left the house in the morning, she had already called the old house and agreed to go back the next day.

But when looking at Miao Shaozhen outside the door, Ji Ling was still very surprised. She looked behind her again, and before she knew to ask, Miao Shaozhen had already spoken.

"Sister-in-law, I came here by myself. No one came with me."

Ji Ling retracted her gaze and looked at her, "What's the matter with you coming here?"

She had no intention of letting anyone into the house.

"Sister-in-law, I was passing by and came to see you."

Miao Shaozhen smiled sweetly, this smile could deceive others but not Ji Ling. Having seen her acting as a big sister for gangsters, and looking at the innocent smile on her face, she always felt that there was a conspiracy behind it.

Ji Ling glanced at her and opened the door, "Come in."

The person had already asked to come and see her, but she still locked him out. Someone like Miao Shaozhen would go straight back to the old house and say that she didn't let anyone in.

The other party knew that she would not refuse this and controlled her every step of the way.

How could such a mind be simple?

After Miao Shaozhen entered the house, he looked around and said, "This place is not as big as the old house. Are you used to living here, sister-in-law? There are also rooms for you in the old house. In fact, it is okay for you to live in the old house."

Ji Ling poured some water and put it on the coffee table, "Sit down."

As for what she said, Ji Ling did not respond.

Miao Shaozhen sat down and explained, "I finished the exam yesterday. Grandpa Zhu said that my grades would be fine for admission to the medical school. Thanks to Brother Weidong for helping me with my lessons when I was at home, otherwise I would definitely not have failed the exam. Brother Weidong is not at home, so I would like to thank my sister-in-law as well."

Ji Ling said politely, "It's my duty. Grandma and your grandpa are old acquaintances. It is your grandpa's wish that you go to school. He will mobilize the whole family to help you realize your dream."

Ji Ling spoke with the attitude of a master. She kept staring at Miao Shaozhen while speaking. Miao Shaozhen did not show any shame or anger on his face, only gratitude.

People of this age have already been trained in society.

If Ji Ling had not lived two lives and been with Miao Shaozhen, she would have been grateful to her for being sold out by her.

Miao Shaozhen smiled and said, "I have been admitted to the Medical School and will not be able to go to school until the beginning of next spring. I will go back in a few days. My sister-in-law is also on vacation now. Will she go back to the old house? This way, I can spend a few more days with my sister-in-law before I go back."

Ji Ling said, "I have something to do here, so I won't go back to the old house right now."

I'll go back after you leave.

"Is sister-in-law angry with me?" Miao Shaozhen suddenly asked, "I didn't mean anything else about the book last time. I just thought it was a pity to just throw it away. I didn't expect that grandpa would misunderstand sister-in-law. I have always wanted to explain to sister-in-law, but I never had the chance. After we separated last time, I have been thinking about this matter in my heart, so I came to your house today without any hesitation."

Ji Ling smiled and said, "You think too much. I didn't tell Grandpa in detail about what happened that day. It's not your fault that Grandpa misunderstood you. Besides, Grandpa didn't mean to blame me. You also said it was a book. If Grandpa blamed me, wouldn't it make you, an outsider, think too much? It made you uncomfortable staying in the Zhu family, so don't take it to heart."

Being reminded again and again that he was an outsider, Miao Shaozhen looked at Ji Ling, who was obviously the same age as him, but had such deep thoughts.

Because she couldn't figure out the reasons, Miao Shaozhen wanted to spend more time with Ji Ling and find out the reasons.

But from the moment she entered the room until now, she had only seen Ji Ling speaking thoughtfully and being more pretentious than her, and there was nothing special about her otherwise.

It seemed that she was too impatient, and even her little thoughts could be seen through by the Zhu family at a glance, so they were so distant and polite to her.

At this moment, Miao Shaozhen found the reason. She smiled and said, "I'm glad my sister-in-law doesn't blame me."

After that, Miao Shaozhen didn't sit for long and got up and left.

Ji Ling didn't understand why she came here, and she was even in a good mood when she left.

Unable to figure it out, she called the old house directly. Grandma Zhu answered the phone. Ji Ling tactfully said that Miao Shaozhen was passing by and came to visit. She also said that she would let her know when the person returned to the old house so that she wouldn't have to worry about him.

Old Mrs. Zhu understood, and then told her to go about her business first and not to rush back to the old house. Young people also have their own things to do, and they all understood.

Ji Ling took the opportunity to say that her elder brother was coming over and she needed to prepare some things, so she postponed the date of returning to the old house for a few more days.

After saying hello and giving a reasonable reason, Ji Ling hung up the phone.

After Miao Shaozhen returned to the old house, as soon as she entered the house, she took the initiative to tell Mrs. Zhu about her visit to Ji Ling's place. "I heard that day which community my sister-in-law lived in, and I asked about it when I passed by there today. The guard told me, so I went up and sat for a while."

Then he lowered his head with a look of shame, "Last time my sister-in-law came back, I felt guilty because of the book. Now I can be admitted to the medical school, thanks to the help of Brother Weidong. I wanted to thank my sister-in-law and apologize to her at the same time."

Miao Shaozhen said sincerely, "I have caused you a lot of trouble since I wanted to take the entrance exam for the medical school. Now I have finally lived up to everyone's expectations and have been admitted to the medical school. I want to go back to my hometown tomorrow to tell my grandfather the news and spend more time with him. I will have even less time to spend with him after I go to school."

"Okay, after hearing what you said, grandma knows that you have grown up and know how to care for others. I will ask Yaowu to buy the painting tickets for you. I still have time to pack up today. I will also prepare some things here for you to take back to your grandfather."

Miao Shaozhen did not refuse and thanked him with a smile.

Grandma Zhu talked about this with her husband in the evening. "Si Ya and his wife are out, and you are not always at home. I was worried that Xiao Ling would have trouble living under the same roof with Shao Miao after the holiday. Today, Shao Zhen said that she would go back tomorrow to spend more time with her grandfather. The child has become much more sensible."

Father Zhu hummed, "It's good that you know how to be grateful. Weidong is not at home, and Xiaoling is on vacation now. If you have nothing to do, let her move back. There is Auntie at home to cook, and she can relax a little."

"Her eldest brother was coming over, so I didn't rush her back."

"When the Ji family comes, where is Wu? Ask him to make arrangements. His eldest brother is not at home, so he should help and worry more."

"I've been out all day, and I don't know where I went."

After hearing this, Zhu's father's face darkened and he threatened to wait until tomorrow to see the person.

At this time, Zhu Yaowu was fighting with Wu Jian and his gang in the alley. After two days of blocking the enemy, Zhu Yaowu finally caught them. How could he show mercy?
