After the book was snatched away by Qiao Dongliang, Qiao Zijin realized that someone had entered her room.
Qiao Zijin was embarrassed for a moment and said to Ding Jiayi, "Mom, why didn't you knock when you entered my room!"
"What a messed up book you are reading!" Qiao Zijin also saw the key content with a "plot". Qiao Dongliang took a glance and got angry: "You just stay in your room and read this kind of book to review your knowledge?"
Having said that, without giving Qiao Zijin time to react, Qiao Dongliang crossed his hands and tore up the book directly: "You don't let Nannan study, but you give Zijin spare money to buy this. Old Ding, let me ask you, is my family rich or not!"
Qiao Dongliang saw that this book was not cheap, and the name of the eldest daughter was written on the book. There was no doubt that the book belonged to the eldest daughter.
"I..." Ding Jiayi was dumbfounded. Old Qiao liked his daughter to learn to read and write, so that she could have a great future and make up for his regret of retiring from the army. This was the first time she saw Old Qiao tear up his daughter's books.
"I didn't." Ding Jiayi explained quickly: "I didn't give Zijin money, and I didn't hear that Zijin bought any books recently."
Ding Jiayi felt that she was really wronged. In order to use connections and bribe money for Zijin, she had to cut down on all the expenses of the family, even restraining herself from eating and drinking every day.
How could she give Zijin spare money to buy such a book?
Ding Jiayi didn't know what was written in the novel, but when she saw Qiao Dongliang tear up the book in anger after just glancing at the contents of the book, she intuitively felt that the contents of the book were probably not that good.
Otherwise, Qiao Dongliang would not have reacted like this.
Qiao Nan picked up the book on the ground curiously and turned to the last page.
Having been sisters with Qiao Zijin for two lifetimes, how could she not know what little habits Qiao Zijin had.
Sure enough, when Qiao Nan turned to the last page of the book, she found a row of times written on it, and the time displayed was more than half a year ago, which should be during the Chinese New Year last year.
Looking at the paper again, it was not new, which showed that Qiao Zijin had not kept the book lying around after buying it more than half a year ago, but had already finished reading it.
Calculating the time, Qiao Nan couldn't help but get angry. Half a year ago was the most critical half year for Qiao Zijin's high school entrance examination. Qiao Zijin had money in hand, but she didn't buy review materials. She actually bought this kind of Xiaosan and finished reading it. No wonder Qiao Zijin's grades have always been mediocre. After the high school entrance examination, she just barely passed the high school line.
Qiao Dongliang was originally a person from the army, and his insight is better than that of ordinary people.
He just saw Qiao Nan's movements, and Qiao Nan didn't need to say a word to grasp the information. Qiao Dongliang understood it at a glance.
Thinking about the fact that his eldest daughter had time to read this kind of idle book during the critical period of the high school entrance examination, and thinking about the results of his eldest daughter's high school entrance examination, Qiao Dongliang was extremely disappointed.
After he was discharged from the army, he hoped that his two daughters would have a bright future, so he sent both of them to school.
If the eldest daughter was not smart, this grade was the result of her best efforts. Even if she did poorly on the test, he did not scold her for two months.
But now Qiao Dongliang knew that it was not the case. The eldest daughter did not put her mind on studying at all.
"No wonder your grades have always been bad. You put your mind on this?" Qiao Dongliang was puzzled. The eldest daughter was only a few years old, but she could already read such a love book and even cried while reading it.
After raising his eldest daughter for seventeen years, she never gave him a single eye for anything. Now she has devoted all her energy to a book. Qiao Dongliang felt suffocated. He
could not lose his temper with his eldest daughter, so he yelled at Ding Jiayi: "She is about to take the high school entrance exam, and she is still reading such immoral books. There is no way she can get good grades! Zijin is not focused on studying, but you force her to study. Nannan has always performed so well, but you are making a fuss and not letting Nannan study. What do you mean?!"
Qiao Dongliang snatched the book from Qiaonan's hand and smashed it on Ding Jiayi's face.
Being hit on the face doesn't hurt, but it's ugly. Ding Jiayi was humiliated, but she couldn't refute a word at this time: "Zijin, how could you..."
How could you fail at such a critical moment!
Ding Jiayi really didn't expect that in such an important six months, her eldest daughter not only didn't review well, but also read novels.
But Ding Jiayi knew that when Qiao Nan wanted to read at home, she didn't give Qiao Nan this opportunity. She always ordered Qiao Nan to do this and that, and clean the house.
Qiao Zijin's ears were still buzzing, and she was stunned, or she was scared.
Qiao Zijin was studying, and no matter who was at home, they would not disturb Qiao Zijin.
Especially today, Qiao Zijin specifically told Ding Jiayi that she was going to read a book. According to her previous habits, Ding Jiayi would never let anyone disturb her or enter her room.
It was because Ding Jiayi was watching that Qiao Zijin felt so relieved when she read.
When the plot reached its climax, Qiao Zijin was completely immersed in the novel. She was crying uncontrollably because the hero and heroine were separated by the hero's original wife. Then, three more people suddenly appeared in the room.
Qiao Zijin said she was reviewing. The content of this book had nothing to do with junior high school studies.
"No, no, Dad, you misunderstood. This book... I, I read it after the exam. I didn't... "
Qiao Zijin stuttered for a long time and couldn't say a complete sentence, but everyone understood her cunning.
Ding Jiayi reacted and quickly protected Qiao Zijin: "Old Qiao, you heard it, Zijin bought this book early, but just read it, the high school entrance examination has nothing to do with this book. Zijin is so sensible, how could he do such a thing."
"I haven't read it, does it look like a new book that has not been flipped through?"
"Dad, I haven't read it, but I lent it to other classmates!"
"Who did you lend it to?"
"I lent it to Wang Hua in the next class." However, Wang Hua moved four months ago and didn't even come back to take the high school entrance examination. Her father must not be able to find her.
"It's the one who moved. Sister, when did you become so close to the person in your next class?" Qiao Nan laughed. Qiao Zijin could use this to coax her mother, but it was too naive to deceive her father.
This is clearly because they have moved and are no longer here. Even if Dad wants to ask, there is no evidence.
"Shut up!" Ding Jiayi yelled at Qiao Nan, "It's already this time, and you are still adding fuel to the fire. Qiao Nan, what are you thinking? Can you speak? If you can't, don't speak!"
Seeing Qiao Dongliang's face getting darker and darker, Ding Jiayi was also scared.
"Dad, it's time to register the day after tomorrow. My tuition?" Qiao Nan changed the subject. Registration is imminent. Can she get her tuition? "Dad, I've run out of pens and notebooks."
