My heart sank involuntarily.

"What's wrong with Fang Ping? I think she looks better than those from small towns. You two are classmates and colleagues."

"Aunt, love cannot be forced. Even though Xiaoling and I met late, in my heart she is my wife. No one else can compare." Zhu Weidong looked at Lin Liying devoutly.

Facing her nephew's sincere face, Lin Liying couldn't say anything more unpleasant. "Forget it, you married your own wife and you have to live your life by yourself. No matter how much I say, it's useless. I just feel sorry for you. If your wife can't help you, your life will be difficult."

"What does Chi Fangping have? She has a widowed mother. Ji Ling's elder brother has his own factory, and the Ji family also has its own factory. It would be good for any family member to bring it up."

"What's so great about opening a small factory?"

"It's not worth talking about, but she's better than Chi Fangping. Xiaoling is the daughter-in-law that our Zhu family prayed for, while Chi Fangping is the one who wanted to harm our Zhu family but couldn't get her. You have to understand these two points clearly."

Lin Liying was annoyed, "Why do you always dislike me and always want to go against my will?"

"I'm not trying to provoke you. I'm just discussing the matter at hand."

Lin Liying stood up and said, "I have something to do. I'll go back first."

"Stop." There were no outsiders, or perhaps because things had gotten to this point, Mrs. Zhu didn't want to endure it anymore. "Liying, we understand that you hate me and your father. You don't want to come back or recognize us. We are also responsible for your suffering since childhood. It was your father and I's fault. If you have anything to say, come to us. Xiaoling is Weidong's wife, your niece's wife. As an elder, you should take care of the younger generation. Besides, Niuniu is your nephew. What you did today was not to protect Weidong, you were poking his heart. Is this how you treat his wife and his child?"

Lin Liying didn't care about that. "I just don't like her. Not to mention today, it will be the same if I see her again in the future. If you don't like me, I can just not come here."

"Okay, then don't come." Old Mrs. Zhu suddenly spoke.

It was too late for Zhu Weidong to stop her. Lin Liying was stunned for a moment and then laughed.

"Yeah, I've always been an outsider, a nuisance."

After saying this, Lin Liying strode away.

The living room was quiet.

Zhu Weidong looked at the sadness on his grandmother's face and said, "Grandma, my aunt is angry with the family. She has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Why should you bother with her?"

"If I don't take care of her, she will turn the Zhu family upside down. We can't let her ruin our family." Old Mrs. Zhu waved her hand, "Take your car tonight and go spend time with your wife and children."

After saying this, Mrs. Zhu also returned to her room.

Zhu Weidong was worried and wanted to chat with his grandmother for a while, but he was kicked out and had to go back upstairs.

Upstairs, Ji Ling had already coaxed her daughter into submission, but she was still listless and lay motionless in her arms.

My daughter has been pampered by our family since she was born. I’m afraid they would pick the stars in the sky for her. She has never suffered such an injustice.

Zhu Weidong came in and wanted to hug his daughter and comfort her, but his daughter started crying softly out of grievance.

Ji Ling also felt uncomfortable, her eyes turned red, "I'll comfort her."

When Zhu Weidong heard that his wife's voice was not right, he felt depressed. He sat down and hugged his wife and daughter in his arms.

"My aunt was given away when she was young. The whole family felt guilty about her. She hasn't been back for a few years. Grandma just passed away."

"I understand everything." Ji Ling knew it was useless to argue at this time.

"Just now, grandma was angry with my aunt and told her not to come back and stand up for you and Niuniu."

Zhu Weidong already felt that his wife was talking about her, not her sister-in-law.

He knew that his wife could not forgive him, and he could not accept it either.

"If grandma wasn't here, I wouldn't have tolerated it. We're at home, and I can't let you two be bullied by outsiders." Zhu Weidong coaxed his wife, "Even if aunt wasn't given away, she would have married off. She would be an outsider. To me, you and Niuniu are the most important."

Regardless of whether it was true or not, these words made Ji Ling feel better.

She was not someone who was easy to bully. "Anyway, I gave face to grandma, and I also gave face to you. If she bullies me and Niuniu again in the future, I will not tolerate it."

"Don't worry, she's very proud. This time grandma told her not to come back, so she won't come again and won't be able to bully you."

Ji Lingcai smiled and looked down at her daughter in her arms who was looking at them curiously. She tapped her daughter's nose lightly.

"Okay, Daddy said that no one will bully us in the future. Are you still not happy?"

Niuniu turned her head away and leaned into her mother's arms twice before she raised her head and said, "Daddy is the best."

The clear and tender voice broke the dull atmosphere.

Zhu Weidong smiled and took his daughter who was rushing towards him, lifted her up high and kissed her. Soon the room was filled with the laughter of father and daughter.

Before dinner, the Zhu family members came back. Zhu Weidong was about to leave, and the Zhu brothers were going to see him off.

Another reason was that Lin Liying had returned. After Zhu Weidong told Zhu Yaowu on the phone, other members of the Zhu family got the news and rushed back.

After returning home, Mrs. Zhu told her grandchildren what happened in the afternoon.

Zhu Yaowu and the other two were smart, so they naturally would not say bad things about Lin Liying in front of the old lady, but they all blamed the fault on Chi Fangping.

It was only because Chi Fangping was behind this that the aunt had such a strong crush on Ji Ling.

Old Mrs. Zhu knew that these were words to coax her, but who doesn't like to hear nice words?

But when he left Old Lady Zhu in private, Zhu Yaowu used all kinds of unpleasant words on Lin Liying.

"By the way, doesn't she have a son and a daughter in the capital?" Zhu Yaowu looked at Lao Wu, "Wei Ming, do you know?"

Zhu Weiming was called by name and smiled, "It's in the capital. I heard her daughter is going there for internship."

Finally, he looked to the side, and several people followed his gaze and only saw the wall on the left.

Zhu Yaowu was the first to react, "Going to my sister-in-law's workplace for an internship?"

"I heard that." Zhu Weiming said, "Grandpa asked about it last year, so I made some inquiries. If you want to know, I'll go and ask again tomorrow."

"Ask around and let her come to our place for an internship. I'll let her understand what social beatings are." See how her mother can bully others.

Zhu Yaowu didn't explain it very clearly, but the other four people understood it.

Zhu Yaowu finally warned, "Don't let your sister-in-law know about this."
