Ji Yong is a smart man, otherwise he would not have sold his formal job and chosen to go into the sea.
For people of this generation, going into business would be ridiculed, and a formal job is better in a good factory so that they can look good when talking about it to others.
But the fact that Ji Yong chose to go into business under such circumstances shows that he is a visionary man.
People like this, if they stay with stupid people for a long time, seem to become stupid themselves.
Ji Ling told him clearly, "Dad, if that's the case, then the reason why Luo Li and my eldest brother suddenly stopped talking about marriage is Luo Li. Don't take the blame for others' mistakes on yourself. My eldest brother and the others misunderstood you because they didn't know the inside story."
"I'll find time to talk to your mother and the others about this." Ji Yong believed his daughter's words, and couldn't help feeling guilty. "Luo Li is indeed a very capable girl. The Luo family cannery was able to open up thanks to her. Now that the factory is on track, we just need to keep an eye on it. Even men may not have her abilities. I did have a lot of opinions about her because of her sister's matter. It's not because she bullied you, but because she was unfair. This problem can be seen from small things. If it's like this in big things, it will cause bigger problems."
"But afterwards, she realized her mistake, admitted it to your eldest brother, and was able to correct it. I was relieved."
Who would have thought that now that marriage has been brought up, Luo Li would say let’s wait.
"Don't think about it anymore. I'll talk to my eldest brother later."
The father and daughter hung up the phone. Ji Ling thought for a while and called the store. Lou Xuemei answered the phone. Ji Ling told her that if she received a call from Ji Jianhua, she should ask Ji Jianhua to call her.
Afterwards, she asked about the business in the store, and when it sounded like nothing was going on, Ji Ling hung up the phone.
This matter cannot be rushed. Zhu Weidong is not around, and Ji Ling doesn't want to bother him about it. She only tells Zhu Weidong good news and not bad news on the phone.
There was no way she could talk about this matter with her classmates. The next day when she arrived at school, she took the initiative to find Ji Ke for the first time and told her the truth that she had heard from Ji Yong.
Ji Ke was not stupid either, "Luo Li doesn't want to marry Big Brother? Then she could have rejected Big Brother from the beginning, why did she do this?"
Ji Ling said, "You'll have to ask Luo Li about this. Did she tell my brother where she lives when she came to the capital to take care of her sister?"
Ji Jianhua was the injured one. Looking back, Ji Jianhua and Luo Li had put in a lot of effort after they started dating. Now he ran to the south to heal his wounds alone and even misunderstood that his family was trying to stop him.
If it were someone else, Ji Ling really wouldn't care, but since it was Ji Jianhua and it was a matter of love, Ji Ling couldn't just stand by and watch.
Ji Ke thought for a moment and said, "I heard my mother say something on the phone, but I didn't listen carefully. I'll call home to ask in the evening."
Ji Ling nodded, "Okay, let's do this for now, and tell me after you find out."
With that, the two sisters separated.
After Ji Ling left, the people in Ji Ke's dormitory poked their heads out of the room.
Several girls were obviously eavesdropping just now.
"Ji Ke, that's your sister? She doesn't look like you at all."
"Your sister looks very fragile."
"You are brighter."
Ji Ke listened with a smile on his face, "My sister grew up with my mom, and I grew up with my grandma. Maybe that's the reason."
Everyone was curious after hearing this, but Ji Ke didn't say anything more.
She was also thinking about calling home, so she was absent-minded in the afternoon class and ran outside to make a phone call as soon as the get out of class was over.
Xu Fang had already learned the truth from her husband at home, and her face turned unhappy after she found out.
"What's wrong with Luo Li? She didn't want to get married, so she told Jianhua directly that she wanted to find you first, and then she told Jianhua to wait. Didn't Jianhua misunderstand you?"
Xu Fang said, "Who knows if she holds a grudge against you for talking to her earlier? It's hard to say what she's thinking."
Ji Yong, "Impossible, don't think so badly of other people's children."
Xu Fang was speechless.
Is she thinking the worst of people in this matter? Is it because of this matter that people think too much?
Seeing that her husband was being wronged but was still speaking for the other party, Xu Fang simply stopped talking. After all, it was not her who was misunderstood by her son.
In the evening, Xu Fang received a call from her youngest daughter. When she heard that it was her eldest daughter who wanted to inquire about the address, she told her the address but couldn't help complaining.
She said, "Didn't she ask you to go to her place on the weekend?"
"Mom, my sister told me the other day that if I wanted to go, I should go by myself, saying that I was not a guest and that I needed to be invited many times."
Xu Fang: This may sound frustrating, but it makes sense.
"Then go over there if you have nothing to do on the weekend. Don't stay alone in the dormitory all the time."
"There are all students from other places in our dormitory. We are together on weekends, so mom doesn't have to worry about me." Ji Ke thought of the plan to go mountain climbing with Guan Mao this weekend, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.
Xu Fang reminded them again, saying that it was autumn and the weather was getting cold, so they should remember to put on more clothes in the morning and evening. Finally, she told them not to save money and to eat well.
The mother and daughter talked for a long time before hanging up the phone.
Ji Yong was also in the store and heard it even though he didn't want to.
He said, "You should ask Ji Ke to visit Ji Ling more often. When they were at home, the sisters rarely visited each other because they lived far away. It was understandable. Now they are studying in the same school. If they don't visit each other anymore, how will the Zhu family view Xiao Ling?"
"She is the elder sister, doesn't she know how to take care of her younger sister? Doesn't she know how to invite people over for dinner on the weekend? It's really disgusting and embarrassing, why doesn't she do it? Ji Ke is ignorant, isn't she?" Xu Fang stood up, "If you are really worried about this, just talk more about Ji Ling."
After saying this, Xu Fang went to the backyard.
How could Ji Yong say that about his eldest daughter?
The reason why the relationship with my eldest daughter has become so distant is that she made too many mistakes in the past.
In a blink of an eye, it was the weekend. As agreed, Ji Ke saw Guan Mao waiting for her at the school gate at 8 o'clock.
Guan Mao was still holding a bag in his hand. When he saw Ji Ke coming over, he smiled and said, "Climbing the mountain is tiring. I was afraid you couldn't hold on, so I brought some food with me. Let's find a place to have a picnic at noon."
Ji Ke opened her crossbody bag as well, motioning Guan Mao to look inside, "I brought some fruit."
"Then let's go. We have to change buses for a few stops to get there."
The two of them went to wait for the bus together. At the platform, Gao Jing recognized Ji Ke. Seeing Ji Ke talking to the man next to her with a smile on her face, Gao Jing lowered her eyes and listened quietly.
What a coincidence, after going around in circles, we finally met again at the foot of Xiangshan Mountain.
Next to Gao Jing are Jiang Yihang, Hua Xiaoyu, and Meng Wenbin, and the girls are Jiang Zheng and Gao Jing.
Gao Jing went back home yesterday, so she came here alone today.
Meng Wenbin was happy to see someone coming, but he couldn't help but say with regret, "Our small team is missing Gu Baoshan. I haven't seen him since he started working. The work at the Railway General Administration is good, and everyone wants to get in, but it's really busy."
