Qiao Tianli took a bite of the cold dish and put down his chopsticks:
"You don't need to worry about my grandson's marriage. Your eldest daughter is not up to par, so do you think your second daughter will be?"
I don't want my eldest son to be childless. I appreciate your good intentions, but let's move on! Don't say it again, or I'll still say the same thing.
The tough attitude negated everything once again, and Yang Hongying was so angry that her face turned pale. What exactly did this old man want to do? He contradicted her every word she said.
Little did she know that Qiao Tianli had a long-term vision; his son and granddaughter were doing well now, and who knew his grandson might be even more successful.
He would be the first to object if he were to find another rural girl to be his granddaughter-in-law. At the very least, the granddaughter-in-law should be educated so as not to influence the next generation.
Qiao Haisheng really wanted to give his father a thumbs up. He was really reliable at the crucial moment. It was better for him to say these words than for Qiao Haisheng to say them himself.
"Xiaoshan, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and pour your grandpa a glass of wine."
Qiao Xiaoshan finally smiled and picked up the wine bottle on the table to fill the old man's glass:
"Grandpa, have a few more drinks today. If you drink too much, stay at home and I'll keep you company."
"Good lad, you've really made something of yourself, daring to talk to me like that." Qiao Tianli picked up his wine glass and downed it in one gulp: "This wine is really good!"
"Dad, I still have a few unopened bottles of wine. I'll take them with me when I leave," Qiao Haisheng said. "Just one thing: you can't drink too much when you get back. You should drink less since you're getting old."
Qiao Tianli nodded: "Yes, I'll remember that. I'm looking forward to enjoying my granddaughter's blessings."
Yang Hongying ate a few bites of food, then suddenly had an idea and looked at the girl sitting opposite her.
"Xiao Ni, I heard you got into university. When does school start?"
Qiao Xiaoni had just taken a bite of fried fish when she had to put down her chopsticks: "There's less than a month left, so we have to go early to register for the new students."
“If you calculate it this way, there are only a few days left. If you go to the shop, there will be one less person. Your dad just said that you are in charge of things in the shop. Give your aunt a straight answer: do you need more people?” Yang Hongying spoke very quickly, afraid that the old man would interrupt.
Qiao Xiaoni: "My family runs a breakfast stall. We have to get up before dawn every day. We work in all kinds of weather, and we don't earn much money. If we hired someone to help, it would definitely increase our burden."
My family incurred significant debt to buy the house, so we have no plans to hire anyone right now.
Yang Lanying thought of the news she had heard: "Didn't you hire a woman surnamed Ma to work in your shop? Don't try to hide it from me. I wouldn't have said this without finding out the details."
As expected, she came prepared. Qiao Xiaoni thought this old woman was much smarter than Qiao Sunshi. She was testing your bottom line step by step.
Qiao Sunshi had been eating for a long time, and the chicken bones had piled up high, but she was still eating non-stop.
"She wasn't someone I hired. She contributed part of the money to buy the shop as an investment. Since she was unemployed at the time, I kept her in the shop to help out."
The plan is to pay her back a portion of the money each month until it's all paid off.
"This...this is different from what I heard," Yang Lanying said, looking at everyone with disbelief, hoping someone would say something different. Unfortunately, no one spoke up, each continuing to eat their own food, seemingly unwilling to pay her any attention.
