The topic turned back to study, and everyone also discussed what they would learn in their sophomore year.
After the meal, Ji Ling was sent back to the compound by the three of them, and the three left after watching her enter the compound.
Ji Ling returned home, and heard Mrs. Zhu tell her, "Xiao Ling, you have a call at home, and I want you to call back when you come back."
Ji Ling asked, "Grandma, did you say anything?"
"It seems to be about your sister's admission to college. It sounds like a good thing." Mrs. Zhu said, "It was your mother who called and asked how you are now, saying that you will come here before you are born."
When Ji Ling heard this, she thought that she would only help if she couldn't come, so she smiled and said to go upstairs to make a phone call, and went upstairs.
After going upstairs, she washed up and changed the clothes she wore at home before calling home.
Ji Yong answered the call, "Your mother called you. I only found out about it later. Didn't it scare you? Nothing happened at home. It was Ji Ke who was admitted to Peking University and reported in mid-August this year. Your mother It means that you are also giving birth at that time, and we are going to go there too, so we go there earlier."
Ji Ling raised her eyebrows, "Ji Ke did well in the exam."
"I was also very surprised. I didn't expect her to pass the exam." Ji Yong was happy and didn't dare to show it in front of his eldest daughter. I won't stay in the county, so the rites don't have to go too much."
Ji Ling just listened, it had nothing to do with her after all.
Ji Yong was silent for a while, "Your elder brother hasn't come back yet, did he call you? The factory is so big, it's not a big deal to go for so long. If it's done over there, please advise him to come back sooner."
Ji Ling, "Yesterday my elder brother called. He is on today's train and will be home in a few days."
"It's fine to come back." Ji Yong was also relieved when he heard the person came back, "You live with your in-laws, are you okay?"
It stands to reason that these questions should be asked by mothers, but the relationship between wife and daughter can only be asked by Ji Yong.
"It's good, Dad, don't worry about me, just take care of yourself."
"Well, hang up if you have nothing to do, and you should rest more."
Ji Ling said, "Dad, you can stay at my house when you come here. I'll clean it up these days."
"How about this, let's find a guest house outside."
"I have a vacant house here, and you have to live outside. It doesn't look good, so let's do it." Ji Ling hung up the phone.
She smiled wryly. Dad is not a nagging person, but he didn't want to hang up the phone today and there was nothing wrong. Ji Ling guessed why Dad hesitated to speak.
It is rare for relatives to take such a polite step.
After Ji Yong hung up the phone, he felt very guilty. His wife made the phone call with the intention of wanting Ji Ke to adapt to the environment there earlier. On the other hand, his daughter was about to give birth, and it would be bad for them not to come.
But it was not good to live outside in the past, and my wife couldn’t open this mouth, so I left it to him.
Ji Yong didn't want to mention this matter, so when he got there, he would find a hostel to live in first, and let outsiders say what they wanted to say.
"How is it? Did she take the initiative?" Xu Fang asked.
The daughter lived in the house of her in-laws, and after they got married, the in-laws bought a building for them, so they used to live there naturally.
"I heard that the house is just across from Peking University, right? Living there will allow Xiao Ke to get acquainted with the campus first." Xu Fang still has selfish intentions, "Ji Ling has a baby, will she live in her in-law's house in the future? She While going to school and taking care of the children, she can't leave her body, is her own house going to be empty?"
Ji Yong raised his head, "Xiao Ke should live in the academy, isn't that the case for many students from other places, our family is not from the capital, why is she specializing?"
Xu Fang froze with a smile, "I just asked, but I didn't tell Xiao Ke to live with her."
Ji Yong glanced at his wife, "When you get there, if you don't want to talk, talk less. The child has a child, so you should feel more distressed."
"Look at what you said, I'm not a stepmother, and I have never been mean to her." Xu Fang didn't like to hear this.
Ji Yong got up and left without saying anything.
In the next few days, Ji’s family set up a banquet. It happened that Ji Jianhua also came back from the outside on this day. The family’s banquet was set up in the city and once in the county.
The ones in the county have already been placed, and the ones in the city are relatives on both sides of the Xu family and Ji's family.
We met after Ji Ling got married last time, and we haven't met since then.
It happened this time, the two daughters of the Ji family were admitted to Peking University, and the congratulations were even louder.
Xu Fang and her daughter were surrounded by relatives, Ji Ke called out obediently, and praised her endlessly.
Li Luo, who was sitting at the guest's table, saw Ji Jianhua sitting on the other side from a distance, but he didn't come to his side, and his heart twisted again.
Ji Jianhua was doing sending off the guests, so when he saw Luo Li, he greeted with a smile, "There are too many people today, and the hospitality is not good enough, please forgive me."
Luo Li smiled and said, "Are we still so polite?"
Ji Jianhua said, "I just came back today, and I will look for you tomorrow."
When Luo Li heard this, the sourness in his heart faded, "You should be busy, I will wait for you tomorrow."
The two nodded, and then separated.
Ji Yong saw this scene from a distance, and waited until the evening to send all the guests away, thinking about talking to his son again, but he didn't want the old lady Ji to mention it first.
"Jianhua's partner has been talking for more than a year, and now that Xiao Ke is admitted to university, it's time for Jianhua's marriage."
Xu Fang heard her mother-in-law's words, looked up, and became suspicious. Everyone knew that her mother-in-law didn't like her son, so why did she suddenly start to care about her son?
If something goes wrong, there will be a demon.
Xu Fang hid her mind, "The two children are still together, and their personalities are a bit inappropriate, so they haven't talked about marriage yet."
"The personality is not suitable? Why is it not suitable? I think it's because they are full. People used to get married without even knowing what the other person looks like. Just marry like this and live a lifetime. Isn't it good?" Mrs. Ji said coldly He snorted, and instead of looking at his daughter-in-law, looked at his eldest grandson, "Jianhua, when do you think you will get married?"
"Grandma, we still need to get to know each other better. There are a lot of things going on in the factory right now, and we don't have time to get married." Ji Jianhua also knew that grandma's sudden mention of this must be something calculated, so he just didn't answer.
The old lady Ji snorted coldly, turned her head and said to the old man beside her, "No one will listen to what I say, so you should talk."
Old man Ji tapped the ashes in the cigarette pouch, took out the tobacco leaves and stuffed it in, before he spoke, "Since the child doesn't want to marry, then don't marry. Young people now think differently from us, and they value freedom of marriage."
