Qiao Shan didn't expect that this trick would really work. While Chen Xiangbei was treating him, he was still silently repeating this sentence in his heart. He wanted to engrave this sentence in his bones.
On the way back, Qiao Shan heard that Old Lady Xia wanted to make some furniture such as cabinets and tables. He immediately patted his chest and said that he would go back and tell his master and he would make it for Old Lady Xia personally. He guaranteed that the materials were real and the price would be cheaper than outside.
Qiao Shan didn't want to ask for money, but he hadn't finished his apprenticeship yet. Everything he did now was for his master, and taking private work was against the rules.
But it can still be cheaper.
Old Mrs. Xia immediately praised him. Although the tables, chairs and other things had already been ordered, he could still make some other furniture. He was indeed a good boy.
On the official moving day, all of Mrs. Xia’s children came, including Qiao Shan and Qiao Yi, and they also came to help with the move.
Tang Jiao didn't come because she was on duty today, but she asked Chen Xiangnan to bring some industrial tickets, thinking that her mother-in-law would need them when she moved to a new house.
I have to say, she is the most considerate.
Old Mrs. Xia specially prepared a housewarming banquet for them. Everyone at the table finished the meal happily and cleaned the house.
Chen Xiangdong had been looking for Old Chen several times during this period, and he was finally caught by him once. But before he could even ask, Old Chen scolded him, saying that he had been born and raised in vain, and that he didn't even know about such a big thing happening at home, which showed how little he cared about his own parents.
Chen Xiangdong quarreled with him and was finally beaten up by him. He went home obediently.
This time, sitting in Old Lady Xia's new home, an aunt he had never seen before appeared. He was full of questions, "Mom, when did another aunt show up? I've never heard you talk about her before."
Old Lady Xia rolled her eyes at him and said, "You haven't asked me either."
Chen Xiangdong: "No, if you don't tell me about this, how would I know to ask?"
Old Lady Xia said to him, "If you don't ask, how do I know you don't know?"
Chen Xiangdong: ...Can you still speak properly?
"Mom, who else is in your family?" Chen Xiangdong really asked this time.
Xia Yu'e was about to say that her mother didn't know and that she had already said it, but Old Lady Xia interrupted, "What people? No one, they're all dead. Your grandparents are dead, your uncles are dead, your nephews are dead, and only your aunt is alive. Oh, and your aunt has a son, and if he doesn't obey, he will be beaten to death."
Chen Xiangdong remained silent. He was just going to teach him a lesson, but now he was being tactful. Wouldn't it be okay for him to be obedient in the future?
Xia Yu'e was not unhappy at all. Instead, she agreed with this statement. "You have a good life now. You may not know that your mother and I were orphans when we were young."
Old Mrs. Xia patted her sister on the back and felt that her sister had become a little bad.
Qiao Yi sat aside and said a little embarrassedly: "Aunt Xia, actually my brother and I need your help with something." She didn't even call her comrade, feeling that calling her aunt was closer.
Old Lady Xia: "...What's the matter?"
I always feel that it is not a good thing.
Qiao Yi rubbed her hands, ran to her side, bent down and whispered in her ear, "My brother and I want to learn how to curse from you."
It wasn't very glorious to do this in front of so many people, so Qiao Yi spoke very quietly.
Old Lady Xia pushed them away and asked, "Are you two sick?"
She didn't understand. She felt that although she was old, she could still chat with young people. For example, when she lived in the dormitory before, the group of young girls chatted with her. Therefore, Mrs. Xia thought she could still keep up with the ideas of young people.
But she didn't understand the siblings Qiao Yi and Qiao Shan. Last time when she almost scolded her to death in the dormitory, she said that she came here to study, and she was idle all day long, so why not learn this instead of something good.
Qiao Yi pulled her sleeve, shook it, and called out coquettishly, "Auntie, please help us, otherwise my brother and I will always be bullied."
Chen Xianghong was jealous. She had never spoken to her mother like this before. Where did this woman come from and why did she want to steal her mother?
"Comrade Qiao, my mother doesn't seem happy about this," Chen Xianghong said. "Please don't embarrass her. I'm her biological daughter, and I wouldn't do that."
Qiao Yi said with a smile, "Sister, I need to learn because I don't know how. I can afford the tuition. I'll use my monthly salary as my brother's tuition. Isn't that sincere enough? Besides, I'll come to honor my master every New Year and other festivals in the future."
Chen Xianghong: "My mother has so many children. My brothers and I can all take care of them. Why do we need you to do the same? Besides, this isn't a good skill. Isn't it necessary?"
Qiao Yi became depressed, but Chen Xiangnan could see that his sister was a bit aggressive. It was really like the sun rising from the west.
"Xiang Hong, that woman is more studious. It doesn't matter what she studies, as long as she's ambitious. She's a worker like Mom, very capable, and she picks up some hobbies in her free time. What's wrong with you? Don't discourage others from being ambitious just because you don't have a job yourself."
Chen Xiangnan has been feeling very uncomfortable recently and is often stared at in the hospital. He knows that it was Tang's father who gave the order, and he doesn't know what to say, but he has a lot of anger in his heart that he has to let out, so Chen Xianghong became the first person he confronted.
Chen Xianghong's face flushed red. "Second brother, you...why do you say that to me? I'm not wrong."
Chen Xiangdong's eyes widened again. "What's going on? Xiang Hong, you lost your job? How could you lose such a good job, and how come I didn't even know about it?"
Chen Xianghong explained: "Brother Yu was transferred here, and I wanted to be with him."
Chen Xiangdong rolled his eyes. "You're still talking about others? I think you're the one who's really sick. Mom must have scolded you, right? Tell me about yourself, eh!"
Chen Xianghong blushed, "Brother, why are you talking about me too?"
Chen Xiangdong: "I should talk about you. You seem to be a brainless person."
Chen Xianghong was angry. "How can I be brainless? You are the one who is brainless. You only care about your wife, not your parents. If you had a brain, would your mother give it away?"
Chen Xiangnan: "Xiang Hong, take care of yourself first, then worry about big brother's affairs. At least big brother didn't lose his job. And big brother, you should also take care of your own affairs first before worrying about others. Look at yourself, after the division, you can't even wear new clothes."
Chen Xiangdong was furious and said, "Second brother, if you cheat a girl and get married for the second time, everything will be fine. With your temper, you will get into trouble sooner or later."
Chen Xiangnan's face was dark. Wasn't something going to happen already?
No wonder they are brothers and sisters, they speak so harshly.
Chen Xiangbei saw his sister-in-law's face darken. Yu Hongzhen was also embarrassed. Qiao Yi stood there, not knowing what to do. Chen Xiangbei started to get excited again, so he added fuel to the fire. "You guys came to see Mom at this time. Why didn't you come before?"
