Ji Yong lost his temper and left immediately in anger.

Xu Fang was afraid that her little daughter next door would hear her, so she felt aggrieved and did not dare to cry. She secretly wiped her tears for a while before her mood slowly calmed down.

Ji Ling, who was outside, followed Zheng Shi and Qian Xiangqian to Grandma Zheng's place.

The three of them were sitting in the yard eating watermelon, with watermelon seeds on their faces. Zheng Shi didn't care. He finished a piece of watermelon in several mouthfuls, and then picked up another piece.

Ji Ling couldn't bear to look at it, "No one is trying to compete with you, please eat slowly."

Zheng Shi rolled his eyes, "Last time you said that, I would only eat one piece of a whole watermelon, and the rest would go into your stomach."

Ji Ling:...

Zheng Shi wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and sighed, "You said I've been feeding you for so many years, why didn't I make you fat?"

Ji Ling, "You should keep a pet."

Zheng Shi, "Don't insult your pets."

Ji Ling:...

Forget it, why would she bother arguing with a bastard?

With this in mind, Ji Ling took a bite of the watermelon again, "Why did you call me here?"

"What are you looking for? You and the two of us are pretending to be confused, aren't we?" Zheng Shi threw the watermelon rind that looked like it had been chewed by a dog over the wall, leaned back in his chair carelessly, and squinted at her, "Sanbiao, when

When you came back from being tortured in the city, didn't we comfort you? What? Now that you are admitted to college, you dislike us two brothers?"

"You can't speak properly." Old Mrs. Zheng picked up the feather duster beside her and hit him on the head. "Xiao Ling is a big girl now. From now on, you are not allowed to speak like a kid."

Zheng Shi was still smiling after being beaten, "Nai, look at how she looks like a girl."

"The more he talks, the more he talks." Old Mrs. Zheng scolded him, and then advised Ji Ling, "Xiao Ling, don't be like a stone. His brain is missing a thread."

Ji Ling smiled and nodded.

Zheng Shi said something bad, but he really cared about her. The original owner had not done well in the first place, and Ji Ling would not take it seriously at all.

Zheng Shi rolled his eyes, "Nai, you see she is busy eating, how can she have time to talk to you."

When she came out of Zheng's house, Ji Ling still held a watermelon in her arms. She called Qian Xiangqian, "I owe you a thousand yuan. I can pay it back by the end of this year. Just wait."

Qian Xiangqian nodded gently, but before he could speak, Zheng Shi interrupted him, "Hey, you have money? That's good. Where did you get it?"

Ji Ling ignored him. Thinking that she still had five hundred yuan, Ji Ling took out the money and gave it to Xiang Qian, "I will give you five hundred yuan first."

Qian Xiangqian pushed the money back, "I told my mother that I lost the money. You spend it first and pay me back later."

Ji Ling was slightly stunned.

Zheng Shi squeezed in again, "Qian Xiangqian even received a slap in the face."

Ji Ling felt even more guilty and insisted on giving the money to Qian Xiangqian, "No, you can take the money and I will pay you back as much as I have now."

Only then did Qian Xiangqian accept the money.

Ji Ling slowly walked home. When she was almost home, she heard someone calling her from behind and found that it was Qian Xiangqian who was chasing her.

Qian Xiangqian was breathing heavily, and when he came to Ji Ling, he couldn't help but put the money into her hand, "Just pay me back later."

Without Ji Ling opening her mouth, she ran away again.

Ji Ling looked at the five hundred yuan that came back with mixed emotions, as if a sip of warm tea entered her stomach and warmed her whole body in winter.

After putting the money away, she continued to walk home. When she entered the house, she saw Ji Ke coming out of the house. Ji Ke's eyes were red. When he saw her calling her sister, tears flowed out again.

Ji Ling sighed inwardly and could only ask, "What's wrong?"

At the same time, I regretted coming back too early and wondered what trouble had happened at home.

"Dad and mom had a fight." Ji Ke choked up, "Although the voice was very low and I didn't want me to hear it, I heard it all. After dad yelled at mom, he left."

"Ji Ke." As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Fang came out of the room and shouted at her.

Ji Ke's body trembled slightly.

He carefully retracted his body.

Ji Ling's mouth twitched, and she could only bite the bullet and carry the watermelon into the hospital, "Mom, grandma Zheng brought me the watermelon."

Xu Fang said with a cold face, "Put it next to the well and soak it in water to eat at night."

Ji Ling said oh.

Next, Ji Ke is like a little tail, following Ji Ling wherever she goes.

Ji Ling went back to her room and found that she was still following her. She said helplessly, "Do you have anything to say? I want to rest."

Ji Ke stood at the door, "Sister, do you want to find dad?"

"No, dad will be back by himself in the evening."

"What if you don't come back?"

"He will always come back. He is not a child."

Ji Ke bit his lip, "Sister, my parents quarreled because of you, why don't you care at all?"

"Because of me?" Ji Ling turned around with a confused look on her face.

Ji Ke pursed his lips, "Yes, it's because of you."

"What's the reason?"

Ji Ke never said anything. Ji Ling said, "You said it was because of me, but you didn't say the reason. It seems that I was not wrong in this matter. I was just a trigger. Ji Ke, you are not a child. You have to treat yourself

Be responsible for what you have said and done.”

"Whether it's your fault or not, it's because of you. Mom and dad won't quarrel, right?"

"According to what you say, I should feel guilty. It's not my fault that my parents quarreled." Ji Ling would not take the blame on herself just because of her few words. "If you don't tell me the reason, I'll go and ask."

Mom."

Ji Ke's face changed, "Sister, you will be even more angry if you ask mom."

"It won't work if I admit my mistake, or if I don't admit my mistake, then what on earth do you want me to do?" Ji Ling was amused by this.

Ji Ke bit his lip.

She doesn't speak.

Ji Ling helped her and said, "Actually, you just can't see me being happy. You feel that if something goes wrong, I will have to be hurt along with you, instead of acting like it's none of your business like now, right?"

"Sister, why are you not worried at all when your parents quarrel?"

"What's the use of worrying about me? Mom likes you the most, and even called you today, so wouldn't it make Mom even more unhappy if I went over there? Why would I do it now that I know this?" Ji Ling said with a smile, "Ji Ke,

Grandma and grandpa have taken good care of you. You are nineteen this year, right? But I think you are more like nine."

Ji Ke's face turned green and red. In the stalemate, Ji Jianhua's voice sounded from the front room, "Mom, are you the only one at home?"

"Brother is back." Ji Ke dropped the words, turned around and ran out.

Ji Ling raised her eyebrows, thinking that Ji Ke was lucky. If her elder brother didn't come back today, she would have to educate Ji Ke well. Even if she wanted to come over and provoke her in the future, she would have to think carefully about whether she had the courage.

But they just came back from the city today, why is the eldest brother back again?

Ji Ling was also curious and went to the front room.

Ji Jianhua bought pork and fruits and put them on the table in the courtyard. He was sitting in the courtyard talking with Xu Fang.

"Are you asking for leave from the factory again? The factory will be unhappy, right?" Seeing her son, Xu Fang had a smile on her face.

"Mom, I resign."
