Chapter 114 I bumped into Lu Jiangting running out of Fang Qing's house in a panic.
Chapter 114 I bumped into Lu Jiangting running out of Fang Qing's house in a panic.
Oh dear, this is so difficult! I have to make people wary of me, but I also can't let them think I'm trying to sow discord.
There's no conclusion to this yet; what if she's overthinking it?
After all, the heat in Nancheng this summer was unbearable, breaking high temperature records and killing hundreds of people.
Fu Leyi's in-laws said they lived near the Summer Palace, where emperors used to go to escape the summer heat, so it was perfectly normal for other people to go there to escape the heat as well.
Lin Yuyao hesitated for a moment, then continued to explain, "I just feel that the medical conditions in the countryside are definitely not as good as in the city. You people in the city don't know, so let me tell you about the countryside. Quite a few people die during childbirth in the countryside. Yi Yunshuo said before that Wang Jianjun's mother died when she gave birth to him, right?"
"Ah."
"So, life in the city is still better, isn't it?"
Fu Huaiyi took a deep breath and nodded gently, "That makes sense, Yao Yao. Thank you for your concern for my family."
This……
Lin Yuyao said awkwardly, "I hope you don't think I'm trying to sow discord."
"No, your analysis is very accurate. You can't be too careful. That Pan Hong, he's not very capable. My uncle gave him money to start a business and he lost it all. Then he asked my uncle for more money, but my uncle refused. So he kept urging my sister to ask for it. I've always suspected that he doesn't really like my sister, he's just after their money."
what?
If the brother-in-law hadn't been prejudiced against his brother-in-law, the danger level would have at least doubled.
Speaking of which, Sister Leyi looks like a strong woman, so how come she's also love-struck?
Fu Huaiyi decided to go see his uncle again tomorrow and ask him to urge his cousin to come back.
If she doesn't come back, I'll take advantage of his vacation these few days and go to pick her up in person.
The next day, Fu Huaiyi left home early. If all else failed, he would buy a plane ticket for today and go there, thinking that he should resolve the matter as soon as possible, since he had to go back to work in a few days.
Unexpectedly, when she came out, she bumped into Lu Jiangting, who was coming out of the building across the street in a panic.
Today is Sunday, and Lu Jiangting is not at work, but he is here so early in the morning.
Fu Huaiyi checked the time; it was a little past six o'clock. He ran out of the building where Fang Qing lived.
interesting.
"Jiang Ting," Fu Huaiyi called out, striding towards him.
They've had a huge falling out, fought more than once, and never speak to each other when they meet.
But at this moment, Fu Huaiyi just wanted to say a few words to him.
Lu Jiangting, who was already flustered, froze when Fu Huaiyi called out to him.
"Why are you here?"
“I have a house nearby. I’m on vacation recently, so naturally I go back to my own house to rest.”
Lu Jiangting: "..."
"But you," Fu Huaiyi said, glancing deliberately at the building across the street, "I saw Sister Fang Qing coming down from here last time. Did you spend the night at Sister Fang Qing's house again?"
Lu Jiangting's face turned deathly pale, and he opened and closed his mouth several times but could not utter a word.
In the end, he said nothing and fled in panic.
Ok?
Fu Huaiyi thought to himself, "This isn't the first time Lu Jiangting has spent the night here."
Last time he stayed overnight, people criticized him, and he even accused them of having dirty thoughts. Why is he so guilty this time?
Could it be...
Fu Huaiyi looked up in the direction of Fang Qing's house.
It wasn't difficult to find out which household Fang Qing lived in; the children's clothes were hanging outside, and she could see them at a glance.
Fu Huaiyi silently counted the floors, calculated where they lived, then went downstairs to the breakfast stall and bought some steamed buns, soy milk, fried dough sticks, and other breakfast items before heading to Fang Qing's house.
"Who is it?"
After knocking on the door, Fang Qing's voice came from inside the house shortly afterward.
Fu Huaiyi said, "Sister-in-law, I am a comrade-in-arms of Comrade Wang Jianjun. I came to see you."
Fang Qing opened the door and saw Fu Huaiyi.
She recognized him; they had met at the mall before. He was indeed from the military.
Fang Qing also seemed a bit off; her eyes darted around, and she looked around uneasily.
"Why so early? My place is a mess, I haven't had time to tidy it up."
"It's okay, I'll just take a look and leave."
Fu Huaiyi handed over the breakfast, saying, "These breakfasts are for my sister-in-law and Chenchen."
"Oh? You're too kind. Please come in first, I'll make you some tea."
Fu Huaiyi: "No need for that. It's early in the morning, time for tea."
Fang Qing: "..."
"I heard from Jiang Ting that Chenchen is sick, so I came to check on her. Is Chenchen feeling better?"
Upon hearing him mention Lu Jiangting, Fang Qing's expression became even stranger.
She stammered, "Okay, much better, but he's still sleeping right now, so it's probably not good to wake him up."
"It's okay, let him sleep. Children need to sleep more to grow taller."
Fang Qing smiled awkwardly and said, "Thank you for your concern."
"It's only right. We've worked with Comrade Jianjun for many years, and his accident has deeply saddened us. Comrade Jianjun was a good comrade, and he took great care of us back then. It's only right that he cares about Chenchen."
Wang Jianjun never talked to her about school or the military, and she didn't really know anything about Wang Jianjun's friends in the military.
She only recognized Lu Jiangting, not only because Lu Jiangting brought the coffin back and said he would take care of her.
Also, Lu Jiangting was from the same hometown as them, and he and Wang Jianjun were classmates in high school.
She had met Lu Jiangting before when she secretly went to the school to see Wang Jianjun.
"is it?"
Fu Huaiyi nodded. "Yes, he was a really good person. What a pity."
Thinking of Wang Jianjun, she didn't know whether she should feel sorry for him.
Actually... they didn't know that Wang Jianjun wasn't that good to her.
His stepmother couldn't stand to see him doing well, and the Wang family wanted to ruin him, leaving him to rot in the mountains forever.
Back then, she reached an agreement with his stepmother.
Her stepmother wanted to use her to prevent Wang Jianjun from passing the political background check.
But the old woman didn't know that she wanted to fly out of that mountain valley with Wang Jianjun.
She didn't want Wang Jianjun, the peasant from the mountains; she wanted Wang Jianjun, the phoenix that flew out of the mountains.
So she switched sides at the last minute by offering to marry him, and Wang Jianjun successfully passed the political review and entered the military academy.
In the end, she succeeded.
However, although she married Wang Jianjun, she always felt that Wang Jianjun did not love her.
When she cried to him that she couldn't live in the Wang family and asked him to take her away, Wang Jianjun did not bring her to Nancheng.
Instead, he raised some money from various sources and bought her a small one-bedroom apartment in the county town.
At first, she thought that Wang Jianjun didn't bring her to Nancheng because he couldn't afford the life in Nancheng.
Now that she's here, she realizes he could easily afford it; he just didn't want her to come.
He's not stupid; he probably guessed some of it.
Thinking of this, Fang Qing sighed repeatedly.
"It's all fate, there's nothing more to say."
Fu Huaiyi looked at her in surprise.
Fang Qing smiled wryly and said, "I've already moved on. In Nancheng, I'm so grateful to have so many friends from Jianjun who have helped me."
Fu Huaiyi nodded and sighed, "We're still not as good as Jiang Ting. Jiang Ting was so worried when he heard that Chenchen was sick that he didn't even go back to the army last night. Was he here taking care of Chenchen?"
