Back home, Ji Yong took out the money from his bag and said, "Xiaoling didn't want it."
On the way here, Ji Yong discussed with the couple and offered to give their daughter 2,000 yuan, but their daughter refused.
"Then put it away first. Niuniu is still young. You can spend it on Niuniu in the future."
Ji Yong thought about it for a moment, put the money away, and said, "Okay."
His idea was to give the money to Ji Ke, and then let Ji Ke give the money to Xiao Ling.
But the eldest daughter has a bad temper. If she doesn't accept it, Ji Ke will do the same.
They didn't bring anything with them, so Xu Fang had to pack it by herself. Xu Hongmei and Ji Jianhua also came over soon.
Xu Fang finally had time to ask Xu Hongmei, "Sister-in-law, what unit was Qiu Ping assigned to?"
"I'm doing railway maintenance." Xu Hongmei smiled and changed the subject, "Xiao Ke, you're going to school. Are you used to it?"
"She's used to it. I was a little worried a few days ago, so I went to check on her every day. She's very adaptable and gets along well with her roommates."
"You don't have to worry. After all, Ji Ling married into the capital, and she and Ji Ke go to the same school. She can't just stand by and watch if anything happens to Ji Ke."
Xu Fang smiled and said, "Yes, so I feel relieved that Ji Ke can go to school."
When the couple rested at night, Xu Fang told her husband about her doubts, "Do you think your sister-in-law is weird?"
Ji Yong wasn’t interested in this topic, but he still asked, “What’s wrong?”
"Qiuping was assigned to work in the capital. She didn't even mention such a good thing."
Xu Fang knew her sister-in-law too well. She was very proud, especially towards her son. When he was admitted to a technical school in the capital, all the relatives were informed.
As a result, such a good job was assigned. Although someone was found, the relatives didn't know about it. Why did the sister-in-law keep silent? Ji Yong said, "Maybe she was afraid that your parents would be unhappy."
Because of Zhu Qiuping's work, the family owed so much debt, and his father-in-law never liked such things, and his brother-in-law didn't dare to make it public.
Xu Fang said, "That's true. My dad is still blaming my eldest brother. I heard from my mom that my dad hasn't spoken to my eldest brother since the last incident."
Ji Yong thought that the old man had been proud and upright all his life, so how could he accept that his son did such a thing?
After explaining her doubts to her husband, Xu Fang also fell asleep.
The next day, when the four of them set out, Zhu Chuang came over and found that his four sons had already returned to school.
Seeing Zhu Chuang driving them, Ji Yong just felt that he was causing trouble for the other party. Although Zhu Chuang was a big boss, he did not put on airs.
After getting on the train, Xu Hongmei continued to praise, "The Zhu family treats Xiaoling so well. Her father-in-law came to see her off in person. This shows that the Zhu family values Xiaoling."
Xu Fang listened with a smile and responded yes.
Xu Hongmei saw that Xu Fang was not interested in these words and knew something about it.
She looked around and saw that Ji Yong was not there, only Ji Jianhua was there, so she said directly, "Now that Xiaoling is married well, you are worried about Ji Ke, right? You have two daughters, and if one marries well, it would be really irritating if the other one doesn't marry well."
Xu Fang frowned, "Sister-in-law, Ji Ke is still in school, she has a good temper, how can you curse her to marry badly?"
"Let me give you an example. I noticed that you weren't very happy to hear that Xiaoling was doing well. I thought you were worried about Xiaoke getting married in the future."
Xu Fang's face flushed. "How can I be unhappy? I just feel sad thinking that my two daughters are no longer around."
She was afraid that her sister-in-law would say these things again, so she changed the subject, "My dad is still mad at my brother, sister-in-law, haven't you thought of a solution?"
This time, it was Xu Hongmei who felt uncomfortable. "You know Dad's temper. What can I do?"
As a daughter-in-law, it was even more embarrassing for her to be scolded.
Xu Fang fought back and felt better. There were so many people on the train, so she decided to quit while she was ahead.
Xu Hongmei was feeling angry but couldn't show it on her face. She just turned her head and looked out the window and kept silent.
After Ji Ling finished her confinement, she took a bath and thought about how to find an opportunity to discuss going to school with her parents-in-law. Unexpectedly, her mother-in-law came over that night and took the initiative to bring up the matter.
"I discussed with your father and decided to let Yaowu go to school as a commuter like you. He will drive you to and from school. This is convenient. Otherwise, it will be tiring to catch the bus. You will report to school today and school will start tomorrow. If you don't mind being tired, just pack up and go to school tomorrow. Niuniu will drink formula during the day and I will breastfeed you when you come back."
"As for your food, ask Auntie to make it for you in the morning and send it to you at noon. Just send it this way for now. After the beginning of autumn, you can bring your own food in the morning and heat it up at school at noon."
"Mom, thank you." Ji Ling didn't know how to express her gratitude in words, so she gave her mother-in-law a hug.
Kong Siya was stunned for a moment, then laughed. When Ji Ling wanted to leave, she held her back.
"Oh, this is more like a daughter." I have been with my daughter-in-law for more than a year, but this is the first time I have been so close to her.
Ji Ling blushed. The next day, Ji Ling fed her daughter and let Old Lady Zhu watch over her while she and Zhu Yaowu went to school.
Zhu Heping went with them, and Zhu Heping also wanted to be a day student. After all, it didn't matter if he pulled one more person.
The Zhu family has always been very open-minded in this regard and will not interfere as long as it does not touch the bottom line.
After giving birth, Ji Ling did lose weight, but not much.
But in the eyes of outsiders, she looked much thinner.
When Miao Man and others saw Ji Ling in class, they happily came to her side.
I hadn't seen her for a whole summer, and I only went to the compound to see Ji Ling once. I saw the Zhu family's family background and how much the Zhu family loved Ji Ling.
It’s hard to say at the Zhu family, but there’s no need to worry about it at school.
"Xiaoling, your in-laws are so good to you. I told my mom about it when I got home, and she said you were lucky. No one she knew had such a good in-law."
Li Jia was more concerned about the child, "Is Niuniu cuter now?"
Tang Meng also nodded.
They think Niu Niu looks like the dolls in New Year pictures.
Ji Ling answered with a smile. When other girls in the class saw that Ji Ling had given birth, they came over to congratulate her and Ji Ling thanked them.
Miao Man suddenly exclaimed, "By the way, Xiaoling, your sister came to the dormitory to look for you yesterday. She said she was your biological sister, but when she saw that you didn't come, she went back."
Li Jia also said, "You sisters are really outstanding. You got into the same school."
"I told my mom about it when I got home, and she was envious too." Tang Meng looked at Ji Ling, "Ji Ling, your family is so smart."
Gao Jing sat in the back, looking at Ji Ling who was surrounded in the middle. When she heard the bell for class rang, she withdrew her gaze.
