Chapter 38 You Owe Me That



"Mom and Dad, my sister-in-law is a good woman who knows how to do everything for the family. Since she has married into our family, she is your daughter. You must spoil my sister-in-law the same way you spoiled Lou Xinyue before. Don't be foolish again." Qiao Zhiyi said to her parents.

Mother Qiao quickly said, "Zhizhi, I'll listen to you."

Qiao's father said, "Before, I thought that since I was the only daughter in the family, I spoiled her a little bit. I also made mistakes in some things. I will definitely change in the future..."

Mrs. Qiao didn't really want to make a fuss, she just wanted the Qiao family to express their attitude. Now that Qiao Zhiyi was there to mediate, she felt much more comfortable.

"Zhizhi, I'm so happy to have you here. You don't know that my family is used to favoring boys over girls. I'm the second child in the family and I've always been wronged. Who knew that your family favors girls over boys? Sigh..."

Mother Pei couldn't help laughing when she heard this. "Some things should be treated equally. It's not good to favor boys over girls."

Qiao Zhiyi said, "Actually, I'm also the second child in the Lou family. I understand exactly how you feel, sister-in-law."

"Ah?" Mrs. Qiao and the other people in the Qiao family thought that Qiao Zhiyi had been a rich lady in the Lou family and enjoyed a life of luxury for so many years.

But when they heard Qiao Zhiyi say this, they were all surprised.

Pei Zheng looked at Qiao Zhiyi.

Qiao Zhiyi explained, "When I was at the Lou family, I had an older sister. When it came to me, they were busy with work and had no time to take care of me. I was sent to be raised by my grandparents. I didn't come back until I was in fourth grade. When I came back, my younger brother was already at home..."

She smiled bitterly again and said, "Maybe it's because I want my parents to notice me, so I am always so strong-willed and want to do everything to the best of my ability..."

Before they recognized each other as relatives, the Lou family’s parents might have loved her, but they were not as interested in her as her older sister and younger brother. In addition, she did not grow up with them, so the difference in their relationship was still very obvious.

Mother Qiao couldn't hold back her emotions anymore and hugged her daughter crying, "Zhizhi, my poor daughter, your father and I have been looking forward to your coming..."

It's a pity that her own daughter couldn't feel all her maternal love, which really made her angry.

"Mom, I'm fine. I'm not pitiful at all. Fortunately, when I came back, you still loved me. I'm very happy now..."

The reason why Qiao Zhiyi said so much was just to save her eldest brother's marriage and repair the rift between her parents and eldest sister-in-law.

Since ancient times, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been the most difficult. Only by putting yourself in their shoes can the relationship last long.

In the afternoon, Qiao Zhiyi was going to buy some medicinal herbs for her parents. When Qiao's wife heard about the hot-steamed buns, she asked Qiao Zhiyi privately whether they were suitable for her.

It turned out that Mrs. Qiao had had a miscarriage before, so she hadn't been able to get pregnant for a long time. This time she went to the provincial hospital and saw a gynecologist and brought back a lot of Western medicine, but Mrs. Qiao wanted to ask Qiao Zhiyi's opinion.

"You can use the hot omelet. Apply it on your lower abdomen and it will have a certain effect."

"Okay, you can do it for me too. I'll apply the medicine with Mom and Dad when I get home. Oh, and your eldest brother too. He works a lot, and sometimes he complains of pain here and there..."

Qiao Zhiyi smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you still care about my brother very much!"

Mrs. Qiao said unnaturally: "Who would care about a brainless guy? I don't care about him..."

"Yeah, I understand." Qiao Zhiyi said with a smile.

Brother Qiao took his luggage and went back to the team first. Sister-in-law Qiao did not follow him and went directly to the street with Qiao Zhiyi to buy herbs.

When they arrived at Yanghetang, Yang Hewei was dispensing medicine for someone. Seeing Qiao Zhiyi coming, his face lit up with joy, "Oh, Doctor Qiao is here..."

"Manager Yang, just call me Zhiyi."

She is not yet a doctor.

"Thanks to you, my business has been a bit better these past two days. Huang Shuitian has been much better since you started treating him. He came to me specially to thank you. There are also several members of the Meixi Brigade who came to me specifically to get medicine, saying that they came because of your recommendation..."

Yang Hewei asked his wife Li Li to serve tea to Qiao Zhiyi.

Qiao Zhiyi placed the prescription on the counter and said, "I have another big business deal for you today!"

"What?"

"I picked some herbs for my family. I'll make them into hot compresses later."

"Your man is using a hot compress?"

"I just applied it today. I'll give it to him again tonight."

Li Li said with a smile, "Pei Zheng is so lucky to have you as his fiancée!"

"She is no longer your fiancée!" said Mrs. Qiao.

"oh?"

Qiao Zhiyi smiled and said, "We have already obtained a marriage certificate."

Yang Hewei congratulated him, "That boy is smart. If he had been any later, his wife would have been snatched away by someone else!"

Qiao Zhiyi said, "Please stop making fun of me."

Yang Hewei said, "Now that you've decided on your lifelong plan, when will you come to work for me?"

"I'll come as soon as I finish what I'm doing."

"Come on, come on, come anytime."

"OK."

Mrs. Qiao couldn't help but be amazed at how popular her sister-in-law was.

After getting the medicine from Yang Hewei, Qiao Zhiyi wanted to go to the post office, so Mrs. Qiao accompanied her.

Qiao Zhiyi came to the post office just to make a phone call.

Who should I call?

Of course, I called the Lou family.

As soon as the call was connected, Lou Xinyue's voice came, "Who is this?"

"I'm Qiao Zhiyi."

Lou Xinyue didn't expect Qiao Zhiyi to call, and said nervously: "Mom and Dad are not at home. If you have anything to say, you can tell me and I will pass it on."

"Pei Zheng and I are getting married, and I want to tell my parents."

When Lou Xinyue heard this, she felt relieved and immediately smiled happily, "Congratulations, I'm going to marry Brother Changrong soon..."

"Then I'd like to congratulate you in advance."

"Thank you. Changrong and I will definitely be happy."

"Well, so when will you return the money you took from me as a betrothal gift?" Qiao Zhiyi went straight to the point.

When Mrs. Qiao heard this, she was sure that Qiao Zhiyi had actually spoken to Lou Xinyue on the phone, and she quickly pricked up her ears to listen.

Lou Xinyue on the other end of the phone instantly felt guilty and said, "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't take anything."

"Then who do you think hid the six hundred yuan? After all, it's my money." She and Pei Zheng were married, so the betrothal money must be hers.

"Why don't you ask your parents? Why are you asking me?"

"My parents, my eldest brother and his wife, and my third brother all said that you took it."

"They are slandering!" Lou Xinyue said angrily.

"Do you think I will trust you more than them?"

“I am so wronged!!!”

"You framed Xie Changrong and reported my background. Do you think I should trust you?" Qiao Zhiyi pressed on step by step, leaving Lou Xinyue speechless.

In the end, Lou Xinyue could only say: "Yes, I took the 600 yuan, but that's what you and the Qiao family owe me!"
