"It's better to get a divorce. If we continue to be entangled like this, life will not be easy."
Xu Fang told her son, "You guys leave tomorrow. When you get there, persuade your sister. If she seems to have let it go, don't say anything more about it. Xiaoling knows what she's doing. The fact that she called you means she's let it go."
"Don't worry, I heard Xiaoling is fine. The Zhu family is sorry for her. Even if that woman comes into the family, her life won't be easy."
Ji Yong, "Whether she lives a good life or not is her business, and has nothing to do with us. When you get there, Xiaoling will probably have completed the formalities. If she needs help, you can help her as much as possible. If she can't take care of the child by herself, find a nanny, and when she gives birth, your mother will go over there."
Xu Fang nodded.
When the eldest daughter gave birth for the first time, the mother and daughter were far apart. Now that she is about to give birth again, she must help take good care of her daughter during the confinement period.
"A nanny is not as good as your own family. I will go there after the first month of the lunar year. I can take Niu Niu to school and cook for your sister." Xu Fang simply made the decision.
Ji Jianhua smiled and said, "Xiaoling was afraid that you would get angry. If she knew that you had arranged all this, she would definitely be happy."
"Tell her when we meet. Your mother and I support her." Ji Yong's face darkened when he mentioned Zhu Weidong. "If she wants to divorce, then divorce. She is still young. She can find anyone she wants."
Ji Jianhua smiled.
In the capital, she got up very late on the second day of the Chinese New Year because she slept late the night before. Niu Niu has grown up. Although she gets up early in the morning, she knows how to play and will not make trouble for her mother.
It was not until Zhu Yaowu and the others came to bring food and knocked on the door that Ji Ling got up.
"Why are you here so early? Didn't I ask you to help entertain guests at home these days?" Ji Ling let a few people in.
Zhu Yaowu complained, "We didn't want to come either. Mom and grandma made something delicious and said they would bring it to you while it's hot."
While Ji Ling was still yawning, several people had already placed the dishes on the table.
"Sister-in-law, eat it while it's hot. We'll go back first." Zhu Yaowu was packing up the basket. Seeing Niuniu climbing onto the chair, he smiled and said, "I told mom that you hadn't gotten up yet, but she didn't believe me. Look how hungry Niuniu is. Why don't we take Niuniu back with you? You can relax for a few days."
Ji Ling was not polite either, "If Niuniu wants to go back, you can take her back."
Niu Niu likes to play with the uncles, so she immediately agreed when she heard about going back. More than ten minutes later, Ji Ling was the only one at home with a table full of still warm food.
Ji Ling looked at the empty house, smiled, sat down at the table, and took away the plates on the dishes. All six dishes were her favorites.
She didn't eat much, so she closed the plate after she finished, thinking of heating it up again when she was hungry.
After moving back yesterday, she and her daughter were left alone. It was too quiet and her daughter was a little uncomfortable. Fortunately, she felt better after watching TV for a while.
Ji Ling felt a little sad at the time. Now that her daughter was gone and she was left alone, she thought it would be nice to have some quiet time.
They haven't lived here much, and the place is still the same as when they first got married. After moving back after so many years, Ji Ling sometimes even has the illusion that she is still studying.
The silence at home did not last long. Phone calls to the compound continued but she could not be found.
It was Miao Man and the other two. After one of them hung up, another one called. Soon, all three of them came to her.
The four of them were roommates and had a good relationship to begin with. Now they also have their own business, so although they are usually too busy to see each other, they still keep in touch quite a bit.
Ji Ling explained the reason to them on the phone, and the three of them couldn't wait any longer and ran over.
Now that he has returned, it should be a good thing, but what happened? He brought back a pregnant woman.
"Don't let me meet that unfaithful man, or I'll kick him a few times."
Miao Man did not forget to gesture a few times while speaking.
Ji Ling suppressed her laughter, "I know you three are worried about me. It has already happened. I will finish the formalities on the fifth day of the new year. From now on, he and I will have nothing to do with each other. If you meet him, just pretend you don't know him."
Finally, he said that it was New Year’s Day, so as not to affect everyone’s mood, he would not talk about this matter.
Li Jia and Tang Meng are both married and are colleagues in the unit, so they cannot stay with Ji Ling for long. In the end, only Miao Man stayed.
Miao Man called Meng Wenbin and asked him to come over to play cards.
Ji Ling was pregnant and said, "This prenatal education is not good. I'll watch you guys play."
Miao Man advised her, "You should have fun now, otherwise he and that woman will think you can't live without him."
Ji Ling didn't argue with her, but when Meng Wenbin came over, he didn't come alone, Jiang Yihang was with him.
Ji Ling's face turned cold, and Miao Man simply jumped up, pointing at Meng Wenbin and scolding him for what he was doing? They all knew about Jiang Yihang and Ji Ke's affairs.
It's Chinese New Year, isn't it because Meng Wenbin brought Jiang Yihang here to disgust Ji Ling? Meng Wenbin looked aggrieved, "I didn't ask him to come here, I just met him in the compound."
The man followed him and he chased him away, but Jiang Yihang refused to leave. After all, they were good friends, and Meng Wenbin couldn't say anything too unpleasant.
Miao Man didn't care about that and just told Meng Wenbin to get out.
Jiang Yihang stepped forward and said, "Miao Man, I came here on my own. It has nothing to do with Meng Wenbin. I wanted to find Ji Ling for something, and when I heard she was here, I came to see her."
"I finished talking to Meng Wenbin, but I didn't tell you. How could that be you?"
Jiang Yihang was not angry. He smiled and looked at Ji Ling, "Ji Ling, can I talk to you for a few words?"
Ji Ling said, "There's nothing much for us to talk about."
"What I want to talk to you about is your husband. I hope I can help you."
Ji Ling looked at him without saying anything.
"I know your husband is back, but there is something else going on. I think it will help me." Jiang Yihang said, "I don't have any other intentions. When I was with Ji Ke, although nothing happened between her and me, I have always felt guilty about it. Now I have heard some news. If I can make up for it, I will feel better."
"I don't want to know about him." Ji Ling still didn't want to say more. "As for what happened between you and Ji Ke, that's your business. Whether you feel guilty or not has nothing to do with me. If that's all you want to say, you've finished, so please leave."
Jiang Yihang never expected that Ji Ling would refuse, "It's your husband and..."
Jiang Yihang was concerned that there were outsiders present and it was not appropriate to directly ask Zhu Weidong about his relationship with another woman.
