But as soon as she got out of the car, she started to grab people, "Zhu Weidong, bring the drawings over and follow me to the construction site."

Zhu Weidong was helping Ji Ling get out of the car at that time. After he had steady her, he looked up and replied to her.

"good."

There was only one word, then he lowered his head and said to Ji Ling in a gentle voice, "Walk outside first, get in the car when you feel cold, and don't walk too long. I'll go over there. You don't have to stay at the construction site all the time. I'll come back to accompany you when I'm done."

Ji Ling adjusted his scarf and asked, "Is this the one I knitted?"

"Yes, feel it, the fur you're holding inside is still there."

Ji Ling touched it for a moment, then withdrew her hand with satisfaction, "Go quickly, I'll wait for you in the car."

The two of them were clinging to each other there, Lian Qizhen turned his back angrily, and the driver also turned his back. He turned his back because he was embarrassed to see the couple being so affectionate.

Think about how cold Engineer Zhu was so gentle to his wife. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't have believed it no matter what others said.

Zhu Weidong left with his work bag. Ji Ling stood there and watched him walk away. From a distance, she could only see that he had arrived at a place with lights on, and there were many shadows swaying over there.

The workers were still working late into the night to catch up with the progress, and these people were all working hard for the construction of the country. Ji Ling felt that she could put her family aside for the time being and wait for Zhu Weidong's explanation.

Perhaps she was touched, or perhaps she was satisfied with Zhu Weidong's performance along the way, at this moment Ji Ling suddenly felt relieved.

Zhu Weidong is a sensible man and would not do such a thing for no reason. He also seemed to have something to hide and asked her to wait.

Why was she angry? Looking back on their journey together, although Zhu Weidong didn't stay with her much, he always tried his best to do what a husband should do, and if he couldn't do it himself, he would ask others to do it for him.

In this era, just based on his thoughtfulness, it is worth her trusting him.

"Sister-in-law, it's cold outside, please get in the car first." The driver came over.

"Okay, go do whatever you want, I can stay here by myself."

The driver was about to go to the bathroom and was just thinking about opening his mouth. When he heard this, he said, "Sister-in-law, I'm going to run something and will be back soon."

Ji Ling agreed and got in the car only after the driver left.

Zhu Weidong was afraid that she would be cold waiting in the car, so he brought a duck down coat and asked her to wrap it around her legs. She also wore a down jacket on her body, so that she would not feel cold sitting in the car in the winter.

At the construction site, Zhu Weidong brought over his newly designed drawings. Lian Qizhen wanted to find some faults with them, but after reading them several times, she couldn't open her mouth.

Zhu Weidong solved all the problems she raised, but the drawings were not changed according to what she said.

She took a deep breath and said, "All of you take a look at the new route and hurry up so as not to delay the following process."

The supervisor and construction engineers came over, and Zhu Weidong explained the changes to them in detail, then turned back and pointed to the areas where construction had not yet started.

"There are mountains here. We have made detailed plans based on the data we explored before. It is better to go around the mountain than to dig a cave. This will save time and materials, and there will be no impact later due to the spring snow."

Zhu Weidong talked eloquently, and those around him listened quietly. Then everyone started talking about how to improve the construction.

Lian Qizhen couldn't get a word in about this. She turned around and looked behind her, and could see Ye Ba's car parked in the distance.

Finally, he quietly retreated from the crowd.

Ji Ling was sitting in the car listening to a Walkman. Her mother-in-law bought it for her so she could learn English. It should be said that each child in the family had one, and she, the daughter-in-law, was also a child in their eyes, so she also had one.

But since her mother-in-law bought it, Ji Ling didn't hesitate and used it to listen to music.

Zhu Yaowu bought a lot of batteries along the way this time, so he didn't have to worry about not having enough batteries.

She had to wait for Zhu Weidong in the car at night, so she brought her walkman with her. She didn't notice anyone getting in the car until the car started moving, then she looked up.

The driver is not the one driving the car.

Ji Ling slowly took off her mobile phone, and Qi Zhen's voice reached her ears at the same time, "How about I take you around?"

Ji Ling said calmly, "Engineer Lian, why don't you park the car back? I'm afraid Zhu Weidong will be worried if he can't find me."

"Are you worried that I'll lose you? Don't worry, I won't do that." Lian Qizhen seemed not to understand Ji Ling's refusal and continued, "Zhu Weidong and I grew up together. Later, I went abroad and we never contacted each other again. It was only half a year ago that he called me and we got in touch. Do you want to hear about what happened between us?"

Is this a provocation?

Ji Ling smiled, "Engineer Lian, I think you didn't understand what I said, please drive the car back. As for what happened between you and Zhu Weidong, I don't want to hear it. If you want to talk about it, I believe there are many people willing to be the audience, but that person must not be me."

The car did not stop, but drove forward quickly, then stopped again in an instant and turned off the engine.

Lian Qizhen turned around, pulled off her scarf, and smiled provocatively, "Yes, there are many listeners, but they are not you. You are Zhu Weidong's wife."

"To touch someone else's husband and even come to his house, isn't that arrogant?" Ji Ling slowly got out of the car.

She walked around the car to the driver's seat, opened the door, and while Lian Qizhen was confused, she grabbed the clothes on Lian Qizhen's shoulders and pulled her out of the car.

Her movements were too fast and Lian Qizhen was caught unprepared. She was pulled out of the car and staggered. She had to step back repeatedly before she could steady herself.

Ji Ling got in the car, closed the door, started the car, and slowly lowered the window. "Would you like to get in?"

Lian Qizhen pursed her lips and glared at Ji Ling.

Ji Ling, "I heard there are a lot of wolves here."

She tilted her ear and said, "It seems that I can hear the wolf howling now. Do you hear it?"

Lian Qizhen bit her lower lip, walked to the back, opened the car door and got in.

She slammed the door shut, her tone full of mockery, "Will you open it? Oh, I forgot, although you come from an ordinary family, you married well."

Ji Ling started the car and turned it around. Her driving skills were better than Lian Qizhen's. She said calmly, "You are right. It is better for a woman to marry well than to give birth to a good child. This is a truth that our ancestors all know. You have not forgotten it after so many years abroad. You are not ungrateful."

Lian Qizhen: "Sharp-tongued."

Ji Ling, "People can accept sharp-tongued people, but cannot accept people who destroy other people's families, because the moral bottom line constrains everyone. You have been abroad for many years, and I hope you can maintain China's good traditions."

Lian Qizhen leaned back and looked back at Ji Ling with his nose, "Are you scared?"

"No, I think the one who is afraid has never been me, never has been, and will never be in the future." Ji Ling replied firmly.

Then the car rushed out at a sudden speed, and Lian Qizhen was caught unprepared. His whole body was thrown forward, and his head hit the back of a chair heavily.
