Chapter 68: Distress
The Xu family is not safe here, but the hotel is very quiet.
Zheng Pingshun and his wife took Zheng Shi, Qian Xiangqian, and Uncle Qian on a business trip. Aunt Qian came here. Bai Pang smiled kindly and spoke softly and slowly.
The Qian family lives in the county. They rushed to the city at this time, which shows that they are also interested in Ji Ling.
Rong Silin came over in the evening, his mood improved a lot, and he didn't say anything to Xu Fang again.
Zheng Pingshun called all the men out for dinner, and only Ji Ling, Rong Silin and Aunt Qian were in the hotel room.
Ji Ling also discovered that Aunt Qian's name was very special.
Ma Wan.
Although he is chubby, he speaks slowly and softly and is indeed very gentle.
"Eat more, how can this be enough?" Rong Silin saw that Ji Ling ate less and poured another half bowl of chicken soup into her bowl.
If Ji Ling hadn't had pain in her arm, she would have raised her hand and refused, "Auntie, I really can't eat anymore."
"If you can't eat it, you can't eat it. We'll eat it tomorrow." Ma Wan poured the poured chicken soup back into the thermos bucket, and while packing up the bowl and spoon used by Ji Ling, she said to Rong Silin, "It's getting late, let Xiao Ling
go to bed early."
Rong Silin smiled, "Okay, I haven't seen you for a long time. Please accompany me to my house to talk."
It was too late, there was no car to go back, and Ma Wan had to stay in the city tonight.
After the two left, Ji Ling breathed a sigh of relief, but as soon as she let out the breath, Aunt Ma came back again.
She took out two fifty-yuan bills and stuffed them into Ji Ling's hand, "Keep them for delicious food."
"Auntie, this is too much, I can't accept it." Ji Ling refused awkwardly.
Before she said the next words, Ma Wan had already preempted her, "Now aunt treats you as her daughter, and if you and Xiang Qian get married in the future, you will be your daughter-in-law, so no matter which way you look at it, you are not an outsider, and you are not allowed to be polite to aunt.
"
Ma Wan's serious attitude made Ji Ling feel embarrassed to say no.
"Aunt Ma, thank you."
"Silly boy, you must learn to feel sorry for yourself."
Aunt Ma left, and Ji Ling could still feel the touch of her hands rubbing her head. She held back her laughter and put the money away.
He didn't ask for the 500 that he gave to Xiang Qian before, but now he has another 100.
That's six hundred dollars.
It is equivalent to two years’ salary of an ordinary worker.
This is a lot of money.
Ji Ling felt that she could save money and have no problem finishing college. After all, there are still subsidies for college.
Outside, Rong Silin took Ma Wan and did not go back to his home, but to the compound where the Xu family lived.
Standing at the door of the compound, Ma Wan knew what she was going to do and stopped her, "I knew it was weird that you were walking so happily in the hotel. Do you want to quarrel with Xu Fang?"
During the day, when Ma Wan came by car, she saw Xu Fang and her daughter sitting in front. They were preoccupied. Thinking about Ji Ling's matter again, Ma Wan did not go up to say hello.
So when she saw Rong Silin in the afternoon, Ma Wan secretly told her.
"Lao Zheng gave me a scolding when I went back in the afternoon and wouldn't let me say it in front of Xiaoling. I'm holding in my anger and I won't be able to sleep all night if I don't let it out."
Ma Wan pulled her back, "If you can't sleep, I'll talk to you all night. It's not that I won't let you stand up for Xiaoling, but I'm afraid that if you stand up here, Xiaoling's life at home will be even more difficult.
The relationship between Xu Fang and her daughter is even worse."
When it was about Xiaoling, Rong Silin calmed down and followed Ma Wan home, saying angrily, "I didn't even bother to look at Xiaoling when I entered the city. I don't know what she was thinking. How could she be a mother like this?"
What happened to Xiaoling is not a trivial matter, and I feel heartbroken when I hear it."
Ma Wan also frowned, "What can we do? Apart from paying more attention to Xiaoling and persuading Xu Fang, we have no other option."
"That Ji Ke, there wasn't so much trouble at home when he didn't come back."
"Well, Ji Ke is quite pitiful. She was sent away from a young age. Life is good, but children who are not with their parents are the most pitiful. She can understand by being petty and getting more love."
"If everyone thinks like you, there are no evil people." Rong Silin smiled, and the depression in his heart dissipated, "You are right, I have an impulsive personality, and I can't make Xiaoling's life difficult just to vent my anger.
.”
As soon as the two of them left, Ji Yong came from the other side.
He came from another way and didn't see Rong Silin and Ma Wan, so he went directly to Xu's house.
It was past ten o'clock in the evening, and almost everyone in the compound was asleep.
When Ji Yong arrived at Xu's house, he knocked on the door gently for fear of surprising the neighbors.
I still thought about not opening it for a while and knocking again, but it turned out that the door opened just after knocking, and it was Xu Wangting who opened it.
Ji Yong was surprised, but he still said hello first, "Brother."
Xu Wangting nodded, "Here we come."
Ji Yong followed him into the house and found that no one in the family was asleep and the lights in the living room were on. He looked at everyone strangely and found that everyone looked tired.
After Ji Yong came in, Xu Fang took one look and lowered his head. Ji Ke then obediently called him daddy.
"How is Xiaoling?" Xu's father asked.
"I'm at the hotel. I just settled in there. I thought I'd come over and tell you in case you were anxious. The wounds have been stitched up and I just need to apply medicine every day." Ji Yong didn't mention eating with his friends. He knew that his father-in-law
People don't like this way of life.
Xu's father nodded, "It's fine as long as it's okay."
Then he said to Xu Fang, "It's getting late. You and Ji Yong should go back and take Xiaoling back home tomorrow. Tell her that she still has grandparents. It's not like she doesn't have relatives in the city."
The last sentence was already considered harsh, and it was also an order given to Xu Fang.
Xu Fang did not dare to object and followed Ji Yong away. Ji Ke was also driven back to sleep by Xu's father.
Xu Wangting came out with Ji Yong and his wife.
The three of them didn't say anything at first. They walked out of the unit and almost out of the community. Only then did Xu Wangting blame the two of them, "How do you two take care of the child? Fortunately, nothing serious happened to the child, otherwise you will never be able to overcome the difficulties in your heart."
Ji Yong admitted his mistake, but Xu Wangting didn't give him a good look. He left the community and went to his home.
There were no outsiders, so Ji Yong asked, "Is there a conflict at home?"
Xu Fang studied the cause and effect of the incident, her voice calm and unfluctuated, as if she was describing someone else's family affairs.
After finishing speaking, Xu Fang pursed her lips and asked, without waiting for her husband's comfort, "Do you think I did something wrong?"
Ji Yong said, "It was me who was wrong. Okay, let's stop talking and go back to the hotel. Xiaoling slept a lot during the day, so she may not be asleep at this time."
Xu Fang hesitated after hearing this.
To be honest, she was numb after struggling for a day and a night.
Even if she didn't answer, Ji Yong could guess a bit of her thoughts. To be honest, he felt relaxed.
The couple walked to the hotel. There were no pedestrians on the street at night, and only the two of them were quiet.
As they crossed the road, they saw the hotel on the opposite side. A car headlight shone fiercely in the darkness. The couple raised their hands to cover their faces due to the strong light. By the time they realized they were not facing each other, the truck had already rushed over.
Xu Fang only felt that she was pushed out by her husband. As her body swayed, she watched helplessly as her husband was hit by a truck. With a bang, the truck hit her and left quickly.
