Qiao Zhiyi used to concentrate on studying because she knew that she was not valued at home. Instead of asking for her parents' love every day, she might as well read some books.
Moreover, she had a clear goal since she was young, which was to study medicine. So when everyone was boycotting classes and going to the countryside as educated youth, she secretly worked hard to see if there was a chance to be recommended to go to university.
This opportunity is very precious. Even if you have a good family background, you may not be recommended.
Fortunately, the traditional Chinese medicine he learned when he was a child came in handy. He helped the factory secretary and also helped his adoptive father out of trouble. Qiao Zhiyi sometimes thought that he was quite lucky.
Since such an important guest had come to their home, Qiao's parents naturally had to give him a warm welcome.
Look, the eldest brother of the Qiao family caught two wild rabbits, and when Pei Zheng and Qiao Yufei came here, they passed by the state-owned farmers' market and bought two grass carps.
Qiao's mother and sister-in-law went to the kitchen to busy themselves. Qiao Zhiyi also wanted to help, but Qiao's mother stopped her, saying, "Go and accompany your adoptive parents..."
Qiao Zhiyi went there.
Lou's mother wanted Qiao Zhiyi to take her for a walk around the area.
In fact, she wanted to spend more time with her adopted daughter.
Ever since the exchange of marriages, the mother and daughter haven't had much time to spend together in private.
Lou Xinyue immediately complained: "Mom, I've been here for twenty years, I'm more familiar with it than her, okay?"
It’s really weird that he didn’t ask me to lead the way but asked Qiao Zhiyi instead.
Mother Lou blurted out: "Didn't you say that this place brought you a lot of bad memories?"
Lou Xinyue: “…”
The eldest brother of the Qiao family and Qiao Yufei looked at her coldly.
What on earth did those guys spoil in the past?
Father Qiao shook his head in disappointment.
Lou Xinyue was already sweating profusely.
The reason why she had said that the countryside was not good in this way and that way was to make her biological parents feel more sorry for her, so that she could have an advantage in competing for Xie Changrong and finally squeeze out Qiao Zhiyi. But she didn't expect her mother to have such low emotional intelligence that she said it directly here.
How stupid!
Mother Lou also realized that she shouldn't have said such a thing, and immediately smiled to ease the atmosphere, "Let's go shopping together, you are familiar with this place, you can lead the way..."
Qiao Zhiyi said, "Then I'll go talk to Brother Pei Zheng."
Pei Zheng was talking to his two fathers-in-law.
Qiao Zhiyi said, "Brother Pei Zheng, my adoptive mother, Xinyue, and I are going out for a walk..."
Pei Zheng glanced at Lou Xinyue coldly, then nodded gently to Qiao Zhiyi.
Lou Xinyue felt very depressed.
What kind of look did this bastard give her?
Could she possibly eat Qiao Zhiyi?
Since she came here, she is the one who has suffered the most, okay?
I cursed the bastard a hundred times in my heart.
Running away from marriage was the best choice and decision she had ever made in her life.
Tangtang also wanted to go together, and Qiqi naturally agreed.
Mother Lou likes younger generations and she feels happy when she sees children happily running around.
But Lou Xinyue really dislikes Tangtang.
Even disgust.
Qiao Zhiyi asked Tangtang and Qiqi to wear straw hats before going out.
Before, when she was in the commune, Qiao Zhiyi spent a few cents to buy straw hats for her two children to protect them from the sun.
Children should still pay attention to sun protection.
Qiao Zhiyi helped Tangtang put on her straw hat. "You should just be at home playing with little Hai Yali. Why did you come here?"
Tangtang whispered, "I'm worried about you. I'm afraid you'll be bullied."
Qiao Zhiyi found it funny, but still said, "Thank you!"
Tangtang chuckled, "You're welcome!"
Tangtang and Qiqi, wearing straw hats, walked hand in hand in front.
They are also very familiar with the Meixi Brigade!
Lou's mother walked behind with her two daughters.
Lou's mother said to Qiao Zhiyi, "You have a pretty good relationship with your stepdaughter!"
I heard from Lou Xinyue before that Pei Zheng’s eldest niece Tangtang was very naughty and difficult to get along with, but now seeing Qiao Zhiyi and Tangtang getting along, they seem very harmonious!
As expected, one cannot trust one's own daughter's words.
Qiao Zhiyi said: "This child is very well-behaved, very considerate and has a lively personality."
Lou Xinyue sneered when she heard this, "Being a stepmother is not going to end well. Be careful not to raise an ungrateful person."
Lou's mother told Lou Xinyue to shut up.
What a foul mouth this is, it's so annoying.
Because of Lou Xinyue's behavior, the two daughters would quarrel non-stop every time the eldest daughter came.
Although Qiao Zhiyi had quarreled with her parents in the past because her eldest daughter was annoying, Qiao Zhiyi was actually very rational and restrained. She would always stop when it was appropriate and did not want to embarrass her parents.
However, Lou Xinyue and her elder sister Lou Yujia are both people who cannot stand being taken advantage of.
Facing Lou Xinyue's sarcasm, Qiao Zhiyi calmly replied, "I don't know who was the one who kept persuading me to go to the countryside to get married. So you also know how difficult it is to be a stepmother?"
Lou Xinyue's expression froze.
Now there was no one else here except the three of them, and Qiao Zhiyi didn't hide anything, "Fortunately, Brother Pei Zheng is a good person and listens to me in everything. Otherwise, I would really fall into the abyss as you wished!"
Lou Xinyue looked at Qiao Zhiyi coldly.
Qiao Zhiyi looked back with a distracted expression and eyes full of scorn.
Mother Lou felt guilty, "Zhizhi, it was all my fault back then. I was bewildered for a moment..."
Qiao Zhiyi smiled and said, "Mom, I have to thank you. If you hadn't tried so hard to bring us together, I wouldn't have met such a good man..."
Mother Lou: “…”
It was hard to tell whether the adopted daughter was being sincere or sarcastic.
Lou Xinyue snorted and walked forward by herself.
