Ji Jianhua walked to the door, hesitated for a moment, and then entered the room. He sat on the edge of the bed, with his head down and not speaking.
"I'm sorry."
What about me? Ji Jianhua couldn't say the rest of the words. His wife had a miscarriage because of what he did. After coming here, he was worried about his sister and turned around and left. How could this be fair to his wife?
It turns out that he should have known this without being reminded by others.
Results Facing his wife, Ji Jianhua lowered his head in shame.
Wang Sanmei wanted to be a virtuous woman and comfort her husband, but her mouth seemed to be sewn shut and she couldn't open it no matter how hard she tried.
The couple sat face to face, but neither of them could utter a complete sentence.
In the end, Wang Sanmei was more decisive, "You go see Xiaoling first, we'll talk when you come back."
"I'll accompany you."
"Go ahead. You'll just have to sit with me. Go see Xiaoling first."
Ji Jianhua looked at his wife and said, "Don't be angry. I just thought that we are not strangers and Xiaoling was misunderstood by my mother. I am concerned about you."
Wang Sanmei forced a smile and said, "I know."
At the urging of his wife, Ji Jianhua got up and left again.
When he saw Lou Xuemei in front, Ji Jianhua stopped and said, "Thank you for reminding me about what happened just now. I was too impatient."
"Brother Ji, are you going to see Ling? Go quickly." Lou Xuemei didn't know what to say, so she just persuaded him to leave.
Seeing Ji Jianhua leave, she also breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhu Family Courtyard.
When Ji Ling was playing with Niu Niu at home, Ji Jianhua came.
The person who opened the door for him was Zhu Weidong. When he saw the man coming, he called him "Big Brother".
Ji Jianhua responded awkwardly, changed into slippers and went into the house.
Old Mrs. Zhu was also sitting in the living room. When she saw Ji Jianhua coming, she greeted him warmly.
"Have you just arrived today? Have you eaten yet? Auntie is making dumplings today, so let's eat here." Old Mrs. Zhu asked everyone to sit down, then got up and went to the kitchen, "I'll ask Auntie to add two more dishes."
Ji Jianhua said no, but Mrs. Zhu had already gone to the kitchen.
Ji Jianhua sat down angrily.
Ji Ling didn't say anything, her expression was indifferent. If her grandmother hadn't been there, she would have carried Niu Niu upstairs.
Now as soon as grandma left, she stood up holding her daughter.
Zhu Weidong took his daughter over and said, "Let me comfort her."
Ji Ling glanced at him, stuffed her daughter into his arms, and strode upstairs.
"Xiaoling?" Seeing someone going upstairs, Ji Jianhua finally realized that his sister was angry.
The only response to his shout was the sound of someone coming up the stairs.
"Brother, Xiaoling is in a bad mood, please understand." Zhu Weidong sat down with a cold voice. He hugged his daughter and let her sit face to face with him.
Niu Niu was very well behaved. She sucked her fingers and looked at Ji Jianhua curiously.
Ji Jianhua was fidgeting, and only when he looked into his niece's clear eyes did he calm down. He teased her for a while, but Niu Niu ignored him and just looked at him quietly without any extra reaction.
Ji Jianhua: He sat up straight, "Weidong, I didn't handle the Luo sisters' affairs well."
Zhu Weidong interrupted him, "Brother, every time there is a problem, you always say the same thing. If you are wrong, you should apologize, but you use apology as a catchphrase and never change. It's better not to apologize."
Ji Jianhua slowly closed his mouth.
"Xiaoling is in a bad mood now and won't see you." Zhu Weidong stood up. "Yesterday Xiaoling prepared some clothes and food for sister-in-law. You can bring them to her."
Ji Jianhua carried two large bags and walked out of the Zhu family’s door.
His sister didn't want to say a word to him, and his brother-in-law's words hit him over the head.
At the Zhu family, Old Mrs. Zhu came out of the kitchen only after she saw everyone leave.
She hugged Niuniu and said, "It's not good to just drive her away like this, right?"
"I am the one who is at my sister-in-law's place. We are wrong to invite him to dinner. If he doesn't understand, it means he is immature." Zhu Weidong said, "Xiaoling doesn't want to see him. If he eats here at night, Xiaoling won't come downstairs. Let's calm down first."
Old Mrs. Zhu sighed.
Zhu Weidong went upstairs.
Seeing his wife watering the flowers on the balcony, he walked in and said, "Let me do it."
"Let me do it. Otherwise, I will feel exhausted if I just stay here all the time. It would be better if I could do some work." Ji Ling pointed to the distance, "Look, that's Kang Xiaohua, right?"
Zhu Weidong looked in the direction she pointed and saw two figures standing under the shade of the tree. One was Kang Xiaohua, and opposite him was a woman, but she had her back to them and their face could not be seen, so no one knew who she was.
"The figure looks familiar to me, it looks like Song Yiyi."
When Zhu Weidong heard that it was Song Yiyi, he didn't even look at her, but just said "hmm" lightly.
Ji Ling laughed and teased, "After what happened last time, I thought she was too embarrassed to come to the compound again. Why is she here again?"
"Who knows? Her family has not been in contact with her for a long time."
Zhu Chuang has explained the truth clearly, and Song Yiyi's mother has a crush on Zhu Chuang, and Song Yiyi wants to take revenge on the Zhu family.
These mother and daughter are just poisonous. Anyone with a mature heart won't associate with them.
Ji Ling stared at that place and when the woman turned around, it was indeed Song Yiyi. Song Yiyi seemed to have noticed something and also looked over.
Their eyes met, and even though she couldn't see the other person's expression clearly because they were too far away, Ji Ling could feel that the other person was looking at her provocatively.
Kang Xiaohua also looked over.
Ji Ling thought of what Kang Xiaohua had said to her. These two people were hostile to the Zhu family, and it was not a good thing for them to get together.
She withdrew her gaze and ignored the two people who were looking back at her. She looked at her husband and felt that some things should be done by someone else.
That night, when Ji Ling saw Zhu Yaowu and the others coming back, she thought they had gone to school and had no idea that they had gone out to fight.
After knocking on Zhu Yaowu's door and Zhu Yaowu coming out, Ji Ling noticed that his hand was swollen.
"A fight?"
"It's nothing." Zhu Yaowu glanced at his hands and said, "Sister-in-law, do you want to talk to me about something?"
"Song Yiyi and Kang Xiaohua are together today. Can you take some time to keep an eye on them and see what they are up to?"
Zhu Yaowu smiled and said, "Okay."
After explaining everything, Ji Ling returned to the bedroom.
At the store, after Ji Jianhua came back in the afternoon, in addition to the two big bags he brought back from his sister, he also bought a lot of food outside.
He put down his things, told them about his visit to Zhu's house, then went into the kitchen carrying the chicken and meat he had bought.
In the evening, he cooked a table full of dishes. When he went into the bedroom to call people for dinner, the phone rang.
Ji Jianhua quickly picked up the phone, and the person on the other end was actually very happy to hear his voice.
"Brother?" Ji Ke called out, and immediately said, "You are finally here, otherwise my sister-in-law would have been bullied to death by my sister."
