Too many things happened that day. When Ji Ling returned to Xu's house, she just wanted to rest. Seeing that Ji Ke was still talking on and on, if she didn't say anything, Ji might keep talking, and even Xu Yujia, who had always been prejudiced against the original owner, would stand up.
In order to have some peace and quiet, Ji Ling, who had already been lying down, sat up again.
Before she opened her mouth, Ji Ke immediately admitted her mistake, "Sister, if you are unhappy with me, I won't tell you. I'm sorry."
Xu Yujia immediately opened fire, "Ji Ling, you are going too far. Ji Ke didn't say anything. Don't bully me. You are such a jerk. Why are you so strong? Can't you even communicate?"
Ji Ling smiled, "Xu Yujia, I'm not a fussy person, but the most annoying thing is that others accuse me of something. I never said a word from the beginning to the end, and you said I was bullying? Then may I ask what did I say? How did I bully Ji Ke?"
Xu Yujia was stumped by the question.
"Can't tell? Are you the one making trouble?"
Ji Ke, "Sister, Yujia didn't mean that, she misunderstood"
"Not everything can be done and a misunderstanding can be treated as if it didn't happen." Ji Ling looked at Ji Ke, "Ji Ke, as your sister, I have never told you what to do. After all, I always feel that I haven't done well. After these days of getting to know you, I found that you have a lot of problems. I don't know what your elder brother said to you today, but I guess it is related to what you did at your second uncle's house. I won't go into details. Let's not talk about the past, let's just talk about the present."
"Sister, you misunderstood me."
"Okay, what did I misunderstand about you?"
"I don't mean anything else."
"What did you mean? I misunderstood you and thought you had other intentions? Can you tell me in detail?" Ji Ling continued to ask.
Xu Yujia stood up and looked down at Ji Ling, "Ji Ling, don't be so aggressive."
"Okay, since both of you think that what I did was wrong, let's go out and let our elders judge it." Ji Ling stood up and got out of bed.
Ji Ke's face turned pale, "Sister, don't be angry, I was really wrong, I will never do this again."
"Xiao Ke, don't cry. Let her speak. This will allow everyone to judge the situation." Xu Yujia continued to persuade Ji Ke.
Ji Ke shook his head vigorously, and when he saw Ji Lingzhen go out, tears fell from his eyes.
The adults were talking in the living room. Tomorrow is Old Mrs. Xu's birthday, and the Xu family wants to cook and eat at home. Everyone in the compound gets along well, but their home is not big, so they don't plan to invite everyone. They are discussing who to invite over for dinner.
As a result, I first heard Xu Yujia's angry voice in the room, then Ji Ke's crying, and finally Ji Ling came out.
Ji Ling stood at the door, facing everyone, and rehearsed everything in the house from beginning to end, "Mom and Dad, I really don't know what I did wrong, so I can only seek help from you. Teach me what to do, and then I will change."
Ji Ling was good at speaking, and she explained things clearly and everyone understood.
Ji Ling really did nothing wrong in this matter. If there was any fault, it was that Ji Ke was too fragile, and Xu Yujia added fuel to the fire, which led to this situation.
Xu Yujia still didn't think she was wrong and followed him out, "You are the one who bullied Xiaoke and you are still confusing right and wrong here."
After hearing this, everyone blushed for Xu Yujia.
I originally wanted to get away with this matter, but now it is obviously not something that can be fooled.
Xu Hongmei sullenly said, "Xu Yujia, what did I tell you? How many times have I told you not to get involved in other people's affairs? Don't you remember? You are stupid and yet you defend others. Aren't you ashamed? Come here."
Xu Yujia shuddered and wilted, and walked over obediently, but her expression showed that she was dissatisfied.
Xu Hongmei pulled her daughter and said to Xu Fang apologetically, "Little sister, Yujia is not sensible. I will go talk to her now."
Ji Ling was unmoved. Her aunt's actions were obviously intended to sow discord between her and Xu Fang.
Based on the relationship between the original owner and her mother, Xu Fang would naturally go for the original owner at this time.
"It's getting late, let's all go to bed." Father Xu said to everyone, then stood up and looked at Ji Ling, "Get up early tomorrow morning and help me take the thrush out for a walk."
Ji Ling agreed.
Mr. Xu's actions were considered as his tacit agreement to stand on Ji Ling's side.
Everyone saw it and understood it in their hearts.
After everyone went their separate ways, Ji Yong and his wife stayed in the study, while Ji Jianhua returned to the factory and would come over early the next morning.
In the evening, Xu Hongmei also took her two children back to her own home, and Xu Wangting stayed.
In the study, Xu Fang tossed and turned, and finally sat up.
Ji Yong followed suit and asked, "Are you thinking about Xiao Ke?"
Xu Fang said nothing.
Ji Yong could understand his wife's feelings. "Xiao Ke is too kind. She seems to be very sensible, but she has very little life experience. It is inevitable that she will make some mistakes. Besides, little girls are sensitive. We used to pay more attention to her, but now we suddenly give some of it to Xiao Ling. She will inevitably feel lost."
Xu Fang's face froze for a moment, and she looked at her husband. "You said Xiaoke was jealous of Xiaoling? You think too much. Xiaoke is not that kind of person. It's not like she didn't get into college. Although she didn't do as well as Xiaoling, it's not bad. She's in our province. After entering the school, my father's friends will take care of her. She will have a more comfortable life than Ji Ling in school."
"Okay, okay, I said something wrong. Don't get excited. What if your parents hear us having a fight late at night and they misunderstand us?"
Xu Fang glared at him and lay back down. "Ji Ling is the same. She had to make a scene in front of everyone over such a small matter. Look, the sister-in-law scolded Yujia. Isn't she just showing off to us?"
In the darkness, Xu Fang's words made Ji Yong frown.
Knowing his wife's temperament, she was afraid that if he refuted her, she would not be able to sleep that night, so she tactfully said nothing more.
The couple went to bed early after their night talk, but Ji Ke couldn't sleep.
Although no one stood up to speak for her at night, grandpa's attitude had already expressed that he stood on Ji Ling's side. The more Ji Ke thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt, and her chest felt stuffy.
She was just curious, and asked, why did it become like this in Ji Ling's place? She really couldn't figure it out.
The next morning, Ji Ling got up early, took the birdcage from Xu's father and went for a walk in the yard.
Most of the people walking in the courtyard in the morning are older people, and there are no young people like Ji Ling.
She didn't come to the compound very often, but everyone in the compound knew that she was Old Xu's granddaughter. The girl used to be very arrogant and dressed strangely. They didn't know much about her, but they heard that she had a bad character.
But today, when people saw the little girl carrying Mr. Xu's birdcage and walking the bird, their views of the little girl changed.
Everyone knows that Mr. Xu values his thrush the most. He usually doesn't let anyone touch his birdcage, but today he let the little girl walk the bird, which shows that he really likes this granddaughter.
Mr. Xu is a prestigious person, so the people he values cannot be bad.
