Chapter 197 Half and Half

Anyway, the meal was over. Qiao Nan put her hands on her chest and looked at Qiao Zijin, her eyes full of indifference: "What are you discussing?"

"I remember that Dad taught you that your English is very good. If you don't have that ability, it will probably be difficult even if someone teaches you, right? How about this, I'll take these materials and translate them first. If there are any mistakes or they can't be translated, you can help me correct them. Then, we can split the money in half. Do you think it's okay?"

Ding Jiayi moved her lips, very dissatisfied with what Qiao Zijin said.

Since the content of the information was translated by Zijin and Qiao Nan just helped to revise it, the salary earned of course belongs entirely to Zijin. Does Qiao Nan have the nerve to take half of it?

But today, Ding Jiayi was really punished by Qiao Dongliang. When she thought about Qiao Dongliang asking for a "divorce", Ding Jiayi's mouth, which was as soft as a cannon, was tightly shut at this moment. She didn't dare to say another rude word.

Qiao Nan could guess what Ding Jiayi would think with just her toes, so she didn't look at Ding Jiayi, but only at Qiao Dongliang.

When Qiao Nan saw Qiao Dongliang's calm face, with no idea at all, she breathed a sigh of relief. Did this mean that what she said to her father before was not in vain?

If it were in the past, her father would have agreed on her behalf and would have told her to get along well with Qiao Zijin and help her more.

After all, Qiao Zijin's words can be regarded as a manifestation of "progress" and "improvement".

"Nannan, can you do it?" Qiao Zijin looked at Qiao Nan with a smile, her tone as gentle as spring rain, making people feel comfortable, but Qiao Nan could feel the chill hidden under the spring rain.

"No." Qiao Nan took a sip of water and said, "I'm not looking down on you, but you can't do this job."

Qiao Zijin really hates English. The reason she took out this information was just hoping that Qiao Zijin would give up. But who knew that Qiao Zijin became even more shameless.

If she was really only sixteen years old, she might not understand Qiao Zijin's plan, but she was almost forty-six, so how could she not see the trap set by Qiao Zijin's words?

"Why can't I do it, Nan Nan? Don't look down on me!" Qiao Zijin was not convinced. It wasn't that she couldn't do it, it was obviously that Qiao Nan didn't want to help her, didn't want to see her make this money and let her father know that she was also capable and no worse than Qiao Nan!

To put it bluntly, Qiao Nan just couldn't stand the fact that she was better than her!

Qiao Nan was not angry either. He calmly took a pen and handed it to Qiao Zijin: "You are capable. Okay, you can translate the content of this document for me first."

Qiao Zijin gritted her teeth. Could it be that Qiao Nan did it on purpose?

"Wait a moment, I'll go into the house and get an English dictionary." She just didn't believe that she couldn't compare to Qiao Nan.

"Okay, our whole family will be waiting for you." Qiao Dongliang also drank the tea. He wanted to see if Zijin really wanted to understand and admit his mistakes, or if he was just...

"Zijin, don't be anxious. There is plenty of time. Just take your time to flip through the pages. It's not an exam. There's no time limit." Ding Jiayi didn't dare to scold Qiao Nan, but she could encourage Qiao Zijin and cheer her up.

"Mom, I understand." Qiao Zijin exhaled. Mom was right. This wasn't an exam. There was a time limit. She could take her time. No matter what, she had to try to pass this hurdle. Then she could legitimately share half of Qiao Nan's salary.

Qiao Zijin showed an unprecedented seriousness and concentration, flipping through the dictionary quickly and then writing down what he had found.

Even for a whole hour, Qiao Zijin's buttocks did not move at all, and her eyes were fixed on the dictionary or the original document. For a whole hour, Qiao Zijin's movements did not change.

"Sister, now they are all ready. Okay, you don't have to flip through them all. Just flip through as many as you can and let me see." Qiao Nan yawned and calmly took the information from Qiao Zijin's hand.

"Ah..." Qiao Zijin's face turned pale, but she watched Qiao Nan take the information back with indignation, while she didn't even have a chance to snatch it back.

Even though Qiao Zijin spent a whole hour writing a lot of words, she didn't produce much useful translation.

Qiao Nan silently took out a red pen and annotated the little bit of "dry stuff" that Qiao Zijin had written with great difficulty.

I saw Qiao Nan quickly cross out half a sentence and then write the correct translation. Then, he directly crossed out a large paragraph without being too lazy to change it.

Finally, Qiao Nan had no choice but to start drawing circles again.

Qiao Zijin spent more than an hour writing the content, and Qiao Nan finished reading it in less than three minutes: "Sister, read it yourself. The part you translated, except for the circled content, has problems. You can't even translate a complete and correct sentence. Can you do this job? You translate it for the first time, and I will help you correct the mistakes, and then we will split the money in half? Sister, are you sure you will hand it to me after you finish the translation? I will just correct it for you, not translate it again by yourself?"

Qiao Zijin is so dedicated and attentive, but she didn't even translate one sentence correctly, and she still wants to take on the translation job?

Most importantly, Qiao Nan knew that Qiao Zijin was taking such a serious attitude to get the job in front of the family, so she spent more than a minute translating. When Qiao Zijin really got the job, her attitude was completely different.

By then, Qiao Zijin probably wouldn't even touch a dictionary, and would just pick up a book at random, copying a few sentences from an article and throwing them to her.

Qiao Zijin doesn't want to work to earn money at all. All she wants is to be lazy and make money!

In the end, even though she had done the translation all by herself, she still wanted to give half of her hard-earned money to Qiao Zijin!

Ding Jiayi took the document in disbelief and saw that there were very few circles on it, only crosses: "Your sister really didn't translate a single sentence correctly. Are you sure you didn't approve it wrong?"

How is it possible? Zijin is one grade higher than Qiaonan after all. It doesn't make sense that what Qiaonan can do, Zijin can't do, and is so far behind: "How about this, you know how to do it, so you use it, and your sister writes it down. This way the work is half and half, and it's easier for you, you just need to talk, and then you can get half of the salary."

"Mom, do you think it's enough to just translate with your mouth? The most important thing is to use your brain. I can write these words myself without my sister's help." Qiao Nan immediately refused.

"You...you, kid, why are you so disobedient? You don't have any sisterly love at all. Sakura, just think of it as helping your sister. When you need help in the future, your sister will help you too."
