Chapter 209: What a jerk!
Zhong Yunxing looked at Ruyi and felt somewhat confused. Based on Ruyi's usual personality, she shouldn't be so hesitant. She would always give straightforward answers whether it was good or not.
"Don't worry, just think about it slowly. Come with me to the car to get some information first."
Zhong Yunsheng said this and walked to the door to change his shoes.
"Brother, since my sister-in-law is back, I won't stay any longer. I just happen to have something else to do this afternoon. I won't come up after I get Ruyi's things."
After changing his shoes, Zhong Yunsheng turned around and said to Zhong Yunxing.
After Ruyi followed Zhong Yunsheng downstairs, she followed him silently all the way. Neither the uncle nor the nephew spoke.
"Ruyi, get in the car first. I have something to tell you." After walking to the side of the car, Zhong Yunsheng said to Ruyi.
Ruyi sat obediently in the passenger seat, feeling a little uneasy.
"Don't your parents know about your resignation?"
Zhong Yunsheng didn't beat around the bush and asked Ruyi directly.
In fact, Ruyi never knew that the reason why the firm where she worked was able to recruit Gao Qishi so easily was because Zhong Yunsheng had been secretly helping her.
After hearing what Zhong Yunsheng said, Ruyi looked up at Zhong Yunsheng in surprise. She didn't know what Zhong Yunsheng knew, so she didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Zhong Yunsheng took a look at Ruyi's expression, and everything was self-explanatory.
"It would be very stressful to face it by myself. What is Xiao Du's attitude?"
It seemed that Zhong Yunsheng already knew everything. He did not ask any details, but was only concerned about Ruyi's situation and Xiao Huya's attitude.
"My parents have been working very hard. Even if I tell them, it will only cause more troubles and won't help me. Lao Du has always been very good to me. He said that it would be best if we could have a child. If not, he can still find a good wife."
Ruyi's eyes were already red as she spoke. In fact, physical torture did not make her sad, but the warmth of the little tiger teeth always made her cry.
"You are a girl, so I can't ask you many questions. This firm is run by my friend, and it's just starting out. I've made an agreement with her that she won't mind if you take time off to see a doctor in the future. Just help her wholeheartedly, and don't worry about your salary. It's definitely not as much as your previous salary."
Zhong Yunsheng's tone was full of tenderness. He was not very good at expressing his love, but when he saw Ruyi's current appearance, he felt very sad.
"Even though you're a girl, you shouldn't waste your time at home. Don't always focus on one thing. You're still so young, take your time. There are many advanced technologies now, and other old men can't help. If you need money, call me. You can decide whether to tell your parents or not. I won't interfere."
After Zhong Yunsheng left, Ruyi stood in the corridor for a long time before she adjusted her mood.
Since the Spring Festival, Ruyi has been going back and forth to the hospital almost all day long. She and Xiao Huya both like children, but God always seems to be playing tricks on innocent people.
Ruyi had to go to the hospital frequently, and her frequent leave had affected the normal work of the firm, so she had no choice but to resign and go home. However, the huge time gap aggravated Ruyi's emotional burden.
During that period, Ruyi lost a lot of weight, and her complexion was completely supported by cosmetics.
Thinking about it now, it was fortunate that Zhong Yunsheng provided her with a new working environment in time, thus avoiding the possibility of her becoming depressed.
In the following period, Ruyi wholeheartedly helped the leader to complete the start-up and establishment of the firm, and never stopped the treatment progress in the hospital.
However, Darong was unaware of all this at the time, and was often dissatisfied with Xiao Huya's doting on Ruyi, so she agreed to her idea of having another child after she turned 30.
"Ruyi hasn't planned to have a baby yet?"
Ruyi has been married for more than a year now, and even Xiaoping couldn't help but ask Darong about it.
After the college entrance examination, Xiaoping finally moved back to her own home from the city and would often visit Mother Zhong to accompany the elderly.
"They said we have to wait until we are 30 years old. We can't control the children now. My mother-in-law's family didn't say anything. It's useless for me to say anything." Darong sighed and said helplessly.
"Thirty is thirty, that's true. The best years are just a few years. Once you have a child, you're tied down. It's not easy to raise a child. Miaomiao told me directly that she doesn't want to get married or have children. Kids nowadays have their own ideas."
After hearing what Darong said, Xiaoping happily started talking to Darong.
"Is your second sister-in-law's illness getting worse again? The last time I saw her, her face was gray and she didn't look well."
"If you keep doing this every day, it would be strange if anything good happens." Xiaoping rolled her eyes and said.
Darong knew that Xiaoping must have some news, so she deliberately mentioned Wu Meifeng to her. Sure enough, Xiaoping immediately opened up.
"My second brother and she are fighting again. She sold the house our mother lived in and bought another one for her brother from her mother's side. Jixiang is already at the age to get married, but instead of thinking about her own son, she is giving money to her mother's side."
"Does she still have a house for Jixiang to use for marriage?"
Darong also felt that what Xiaoping said made sense. After all, the times now were different from the past. Without a house, it was basically impossible for a girl to be willing to marry.
"My second brother is old now, and he can't earn as much as he did when he was young. How can she have so much money?"
Xiaoping drooped her eyelids, with a look of disdain and disgust on her face. She was extremely disgusted with Wu Meifeng.
Darong did not continue the conversation. She was merely curious about other people's family affairs. Now that she knew the whole story, she was not overly worried. She just continued to pick vegetables on the table with Xiaoping.
Miaomiao's college entrance examination results were excellent. Although Darong didn't know what 985 was, she could tell from Xiaoping's expression and proud tone that it must be a very prestigious university.
Although Xiangrui did not get into a 985 or 211 prestigious university, he was successfully admitted to a local college in Yutian. After receiving the admission letters of both children, Mother Zhong was very happy and booked a family dinner at the hotel.
Because Miaomiao is going to study in another place, this family dinner can be regarded as a farewell party. It is a rare opportunity for the whole family to get together.
Ruyi hasn't attended such a family gathering for a long time. Ever since Mr. Zhong's health deteriorated, the elders and relatives in the family seem to have not gathered together for a long time.
Probably because Miaomiao's grades were very good, her father Xiao Gao drank a lot of wine during the dinner and was a little tipsy.
"Her grandfather's body was obtained by asking the master back then. Actually... hehe... if you ask me... it took too long..."
Although Xiao Gao was a little tipsy when he spoke, his words were indeed very excessive. His implication was that he disliked Mr. Zhong for living too long and being a burden to his children.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression changed.
