But as a mother, this was the first time she had lived two lifetimes, so how could Ji Ling bear to let her daughter leave her sight?

If her husband's family only brings their daughter to her when she is breastfeeding, she cannot have any objection at all, and cannot even raise any opinion.

But the mother-in-law was very considerate and took the initiative to point out that the child needed the mother. It was just a simple sentence, but it made her nose sore.

Everyone in the room had gone out at some point, and only Kong Siya moved a chair and sat down next to the bed.

"Before you married in, Weidong talked to me privately, saying that you didn't have a good relationship with your mother, and told me not to argue if you were cold to him after you married in." Kong Siya smiled, "I also told you that I gave birth to five boys in a row, and Weidong had face blindness, so I didn't even look forward to having grandchildren, but I didn't expect him to get married all of a sudden."

Ji Ling raised her head, unable to believe that Zhu Weidong had done all this for her.

"After you married into my family, I always treated you as my own daughter, but I knew that no matter what I did, I could not make up for the happiness that a biological mother brought to her son." Kong Siya's eyes were gentle. "Now that you are a mother, your grandmother and I understand your feelings. So no matter what you think, don't worry about anything else. Just say it. This is your home, and we are your family too."

"Thank you, Mom." Ji Ling forced the tears from her eyes to flow out.

"Silly child, you can't cry during confinement, or your eyes will get sick." Kong Siya smiled and stood up. "You've been so busy, you should rest first. You need to replenish your nutrition during confinement. I'll go see what auntie has done, and I'll secretly add some salt for you. When I was in confinement, your grandmother said that salt was not good for me, and my mouth had no taste for that month."

Ji Ling smiled, and after Kong Siya secretly complained about her mother-in-law, she also went out.

The room was quiet. Ji Ling lay down, looked at her daughter beside her, and raised the corners of her lips unconsciously.

Far away in Taipei, after Ji Yong received a call from the Zhu family in the morning, he began to arrange things in the store and prepare to go see his daughter.

Xu Fang packed her things and said, "If you leave now, the store will be closed. I say wait a few days and we can go after the employees come back. There is no need to rush in these two days."

"Then you go first." Ji Yong didn't object after hearing this. "It's okay for me to leave two days later. You take Ji Ke to the city, meet Jianhua, and then we can set off together."

"Jianhua just came back from the south. He's busy all day and all night in the factory. Should we wait until he arranges all the work in the factory before we go?" Xu Fang took a deep breath. "Xiaoling has already given birth. It doesn't matter if we go there a day earlier or later. I think we won't stay there for a few days and then come back. We have to stay there for a while, so we have to arrange things at home before we leave. Otherwise, we won't feel at ease there."

Because she had a bad relationship with her eldest daughter, Xu Fang was afraid that her husband would think too much when she was trying to persuade him, so she spoke out her thoughts.

"It's only the beginning of August now. Xiaoke and I will be there for a month. We are unfamiliar with the place, so don't rush back. You can take this opportunity to stay with us."

Xu Fang still had selfish motives. Her youngest daughter was going to college and would stay there for a month, and she also wanted her husband to spend more time with her.

Xu Fang felt her husband staring at her, and she asked calmly, "What's wrong?"

"Don't you want to take Xiaoke with you first?" Ji Yong asked.

Xu Fang shook her head, then nodded, "It's not that I don't want to go first. You know the relationship between Xiaoling and I. If Xiaoke and I go first, Xiaoling will be embarrassed and uncomfortable. It will be better if you go. I originally wanted to go there to take care of the confinement period, but it backfired, which is not good."

Ji Yong was unhappy that his wife was still thinking about these things at this time, but what his wife said was indeed right.

After a long pause, he said, "Then let me arrange this place, and then we can go together."

Xu Fang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "Then I'll contact my friends in the next few days and buy some eggs from them. We'll take them with us when we leave."

Ji Yong just nodded faintly and got up to get busy.

"Is there something wrong at home?"

"The store still needs to be arranged." Ji Yong couldn't say what his wife said.

Ji Jianhua was not convinced. He always felt that the reason was too far-fetched. What could be more important than Xiaoling giving birth to a child?

"Then I'll go and refund the tickets." After receiving a call in the morning, Ji Jianhua contacted his family and bought train tickets for four people.

"Today is Monday, let's buy the goods for Wednesday." Ji Yong calculated that the clerk would arrive in two days.

Ji Jianhua responded and hung up the phone.

Because he couldn't leave, Ji Jianhua didn't feel comfortable calling the Zhu family and thought of calling on the day of departure.

At the Xu family, Xu's father and mother also knew that Ji Ling had given birth. It was Ji Ling who called to share the good news.

Hearing that it was a daughter, Xu's mother was worried about her granddaughter, but she smiled and said, "Girls are good. Girls are their parents' little cotton-padded jackets."

Then he asked the child who he looked like.

After hearing her granddaughter's description on the phone, Xu's mother wished she could go there immediately.

"Your parents are going over, but your grandpa and I won't go. It's not good for so many people to go to your mother's house at once. Wait until the child is older, and then you can bring the child back."

Ji Ling smiled and said yes.

After the call ended, Xu's mother sighed, "Xiaoling gave birth to a girl. I don't know if the Zhu family will be unhappy."

Father Xu snorted coldly, "What's there to be unhappy about? Men and women are equal. It's an era now, and you still insist on having a boy."

Xu's mother smiled and said, "It's easy for you to say that, but you still like boys just the same."

Father Xu was ashamed and went back to his bedroom with his hands behind his back.

Xu Hongmei happened to be here, and she didn't dare to interrupt just now. When she saw her father-in-law leave, she smiled and said, "The Zhu family is from the capital, and they don't favor boys over girls. Don't worry, mom."

Because of what happened last time, Xu's mother has always had a cold attitude towards her daughter-in-law. Even though she knew that her daughter-in-law was trying to please her, she still didn't give her a good look.

Xu Hongmei didn't stay long and went back to her home. She looked solemn all the way and went to her husband's workplace halfway.

Xu Wangting was quite surprised to see her coming over, "Just passing by?"

"Ji Ling gave birth to a girl." Xu Hongmei was in her husband's office, and there were no outsiders around, so she didn't hold back her voice. "Qiuping's job depends on the Zhu family's relationship. Ji Ling is not favored in the Zhu family, will Qiuping be affected?"

Xu Wangting paused for a moment, then said, "What are you thinking about? Qiuping's job was an idea from his girlfriend. What does it have to do with the Zhu family?"
