"What Weidong did was definitely wrong. He made the conclusion himself without asking you. If it was a small matter, it would be fine, but this is a matter of life and death."
Being accused of harming someone else's child is a crime you'll have to bear for the rest of your life.
"Yeah, if I hadn't been more careful and exposed the other party later, I would have been framed."
"Were those flowers sent by someone?"
Ji Ling nodded vigorously, and she described in vivid detail how she discovered the flower and what she did in the end to clear herself of the charges.
"Why did she do that?"
"It's still Zhu Weidong who stole the peach blossom debt."
Ji Yong coughed awkwardly twice, "."
Daughters are like little cotton-padded jackets. They tell their parents everything, which is thoughtful.
But what my daughter said was too explicit.
"What Weidong did was wrong. Dad is on your side, but how do you want to deal with this matter?"
"Look at him. If he does something that satisfies me, I will forgive him. If he does something that satisfies me, then I will forgive him."
"That doesn't mean we can't get a divorce." Ji Yong said, then turned around and said, "Hey, I was so angry at you that I said all kinds of stupid things."
In this day and age, divorce is still laughed at.
I haven't heard of anyone getting divorced around me.
But my daughter understands it and can really do it.
Ji Ling smiled and said, "If I'm not satisfied with his performance, I'll just ignore him. How can we get divorced?"
Her parents-in-law are nice, and she has a baby. Putting this matter aside, Zhu Weidong is excellent in every aspect. If a man has problems, they can be cured slowly. Her parents-in-law are supportive, and Ji Ling is not stupid enough to get a divorce.
"Yes, he should really take this matter seriously." Ji Yong felt relieved when his daughter understood what was going on. However, he was also worried that his wife might be worried over there. "Don't be upset over there either."
"Dad, I've got it."
Seeing that his daughter was still smiling foolishly, Ji Yong knew that he was overthinking it. She didn't look sad at all. Her parents-in-law were helping her to clean up. She should be smiling to have such a nice family.
Going back to the beginning, Ji Yong told his wife about the incident, "Xiaoling is so lucky to have such nice parents-in-law."
Xu Fang also had to admit that her husband's family did a good job, better than her own parents.
"Xiao Ke just called me. She came back with Jianhua this afternoon. She is at the Jianhua factory. I will call her again and ask her not to mention Zhu Weidong when she comes back, so as not to hurt Xiao Ling's feelings."
"Okay, just give her a heads up." Since their daughter didn't care, they still had to be more cautious.
In Taipei, after Ji Ke hung up the phone, he blinked and looked at Ji Jianhua, "Brother, my sister and brother-in-law had a fight and came back. Mom told us not to mention brother-in-law when we go back."
Ji Jianhua was checking the accounts. When he heard this, he realized that the accounts were wrong. He stood up, walked over, picked up the phone and called home.
Ji Ke was listening at the side. She couldn't hear what was said on the phone. She only saw her brother's frown getting deeper and deeper. Finally, he said angrily, "What's wrong?"
With a click, he hung up the phone.
Ji Ke bit her lower lip and said, "Brother, did my brother-in-law bully me?"
Ji Jianhua returned to the table to pack up his things, "We'll take the morning bus back."
Ji Jianhua took out the padlock and said, "Let's go."
Ji Jianhua, who was originally going to sort out the accounts before going home, took the accounts home directly without Ji Ling knowing anything about it.
After Zhu Weidong hung up the phone, he walked out with a stern face.
The old security guard walked in front and said, "You can't go home for the New Year, so your wife must be upset, right? Then comfort her more. For people like you who are away from home for the New Year, how can your family not feel bad when they are reunited once a year?"
The county government had been on holiday for a long time. The reason Zhu Weidong was able to come over and make the phone call was because his superiors had instructed him to do so. Not only him, but everyone in the entire unit could come over and make the call, and the phone charges would be settled between the unit and the county.
Zhu Weidong is the one who comes most frequently in the past few days, and the security guard is quite familiar with him.
"Uncle, do you know which way is to XX Guesthouse?" Zhu Weidong stopped and asked when he reached the door.
"Go to the end of this road and then turn right and you will see it." The county is not big, there is only one guesthouse, and everyone in the county knows where it is.
Zhu Weidong thanked him and went to the guesthouse.
When he arrived, the door of the guesthouse had been locked. He went around to the fence and saw someone in the backyard. He shouted a few times inside, and soon a middle-aged woman came out.
"Oh, it's you." The lady boss of the guesthouse saw him and opened the door. "Comrade, why are you here again? Do you want to stay at the guesthouse? My guesthouse is closed during the New Year."
"Sister, on the day my wife left, you said she had a quarrel with a woman. I wonder what it was about?" Zhu Weidong asked.
The hostel owner thought about it and said, "I didn't hear anything. I was in the backyard and heard someone talking in front. When I came over, I saw your wife holding flowers. The woman tried to snatch the flowers from her. Then the two of them went outside and a driver drove a truck over."
When Zhu Weidong heard about flowers, he became alert, "Is that the bouquet of wild flowers that my elder sister gave to my lover?"
The lady boss laughed, "No, you are the same as your wife, she also misunderstood that I gave it to her, and later we both analyzed and thought that my child picked it, but when I asked about it that night, my child said that it was not her either."
"It's my fault. We were tidying up the garden that day and we didn't see the store in front, so we don't know who came. Your wife went to the hospital at that time, but luckily nothing was lost."
Zhu Weidong caught the important thing, "Sister said those flowers were found in the house after my wife came back from the hospital?"
"Yes." The proprietress was suspicious. "Is there something wrong with this flower? You and your lover seem to care about this flower very much."
While asking, I was thinking, it’s just a bunch of wild flowers that can be found in the mountains, nothing special.
After thinking about it, the proprietress suddenly frowned, "Your wife is young, but she has a good temper. She is not the kind of person who would do such a mess. Maybe someone just put the flowers there casually. They may not be for her. Besides, what can a bunch of wild flowers represent? You have to trust your wife."
Zhu Weidong pursed his lips, turned around and walked away. The proprietress called him twice, but he didn't stop. An hour later, Xiao Song drove to the roadside in the county town and found Zhu Weidong.
"Engineer Zhu, we agreed to meet at the roundabout, why are you standing here?" Xiao Song was so anxious that he was sweating. He couldn't just leave the person here, so he could only drive around to look for him. Fortunately, the county town was not big.
Zhu Weidong got in the car, and the car slowly drove out of the county and into the mountains.
"Xiao Song, who did you go with to visit your sister-in-law in the guesthouse?"
Xiao Song's hands tightened around the steering wheel. "Director Wang was worried about my sister-in-law being alone in the guesthouse. He knew that Dr. Chang knew my sister-in-law, so he asked Dr. Chang to come and keep her company."
"What happened next?"
"Doctor Chang wronged my sister-in-law, and she got angry and started arguing with Doctor Chang." Xiao Song didn't want to get involved in this, and his scalp was tingling. "Engineer Zhu, I don't know what happened specifically, why don't you go back and ask Doctor Chang."
The last time he went back, Dr. Chang told him not to talk too much. He was just a temporary driver and how could he dare to offend anyone.
