Chapter 1628 Guilty
Zhou Zheng’s second marriage was not as glorious and happy as Qiao Dongliang had imagined.
“…” Qiao Dongliang was very surprised. He did not expect that Qiao Zijin was the first to do something wrong to Zhou Zheng. Even though he was Qiao Zijin’s father, he felt that he had no right to stop Zhou Zheng from finding another one at such a young age. What made him most angry was why Zhou Zheng insisted on getting married on the day Qiao Zijin passed away, and even let his granddaughter attend his mother’s funeral.
Apart from that, Qiao Dongliang did not care whether Zhou Zheng got married or not, except for the slightest expectation that Qiao Zijin might get back together with Zhou Zheng. He didn't care. As Zhou Zheng's parents, they actually opposed it. Qiao Dongliang really couldn't have expected it: "Why, why?"
"Why?" Zhai Yaohui laughed: "Just because you are stupid doesn't mean others are stupid too. As parents, you have eaten more salt than your children have eaten rice. Do you still need to ask why for such a simple matter? No wonder the situation in your Qiao family is so messed up. The father is not like a father, and the daughter is like an ancestor. A mere woman can be like a hen crowing at dawn at home and make the house smoky and foul." All of this was a good start made by Qiao Dongliang, not just because of Ding Jiayi.
As a family member, as long as Qiao Dongliang is responsible and smart, he should be able to manage Ding Jiayi no matter how powerful or confused she is. Unfortunately, after the incident, Qiao Dongliang just habitually pushed all the responsibilities onto Ding Jiayi, thinking that the two daughters were in this situation because of Ding Jiayi alone.
No, Qiao Dongliang was the one who "contributed" the most.
"Not only that, Zhou's mother had renovated a big house earlier. She originally wanted Qiao Zijin to have a second child and let the young couple move in with their two children. I won't repeat what happened later. Zhou Zheng was getting married, and Zhou Ying's identity and status in the family became awkward. So Zhou's mother decided that the two old people would take Zhou Ying to live in the new home. The old home was left to Zhou Zheng and his new wife and the child that woman brought over."
In this matter, except for Zhou Zheng, the performance of the Zhou family was remarkable and worthy of praise.
"Don't think my words are harsh. Generally speaking, the truth is harsh. The Zhou couple has done much more for Qiao Zijin, a daughter-in-law who cheated on their son, than you, the biological father. Also, I hope you won't bother Qiao Nan if you have any problems in the future. Qiao Nan's first identity is the daughter-in-law of our Zhai family. Her second identity is the mother of my three grandsons. Her third identity is an independent individual. Maybe she will become your daughter only after the fifth, sixth, or seventh identity. If there is anything, it's best not to bother 'others' all the time."
Qiao Dongliang moved his lips. Zijin was gone, and Nan Nan was his only daughter. How did he become "someone else" to Nan Nan?
"I know you didn't say anything, but just silently denied my statement, so I won't hesitate to talk to you." Zhai Yaohui was used to big occasions, even if he was not used to such small family matters, but his style as a leader would never change: "Qiao Nan has been married to our Zhai family for more than ten years, and the three children are all in junior high school. Have you noticed that you have never called me in-laws, but always called me "You call me leader, and I have never asked you to be less polite. We are a family, so we should be more casual in addressing each other. Do I always take it for granted that you call me leader?"
Qiao Dongliang felt very guilty. He noticed it, but never asked it out loud. He felt that it would be too embarrassing to ask it out loud: "The reason why I always call you leader is because I respect you."
"Really?" Zhai Yaohui did not admit what Qiao Dongliang said: "Do you do this because you respect me, or because you feel guilty towards Qiao Nan and that you are not worthy of being Qiao Nan's father. So, even though Qiao Nan gave birth to three children, you never felt that Xi was truly integrated into this family. You know it in your heart."
From beginning to end, Qiao Dongliang's "heart" was the clearest.
The one he owed the most was not Qiao Zijin, but Qiao Nan. Because of the debt, Qiao Dongliang could not stand up straight and face his daughter, Qiao Nan. Qiao Dongliang couldn't even hold his head high in front of Qiao Nan, let alone Qiao Nan's in-laws?
"Actually, we've gone off topic, let's get back to the subject. You already know the Zhou family's attitude. Do you still want all the Zhou family members to suffer with Zhou Zheng?" Zhai Yaohui stopped talking quickly. He knew very well that his words could really slap Qiao Dongliang in the face at first. Qiao Dongliang restrained himself a little, but this restraint would not last long. In a few days, he would relapse.
Qiao Dongliang shook his head, his face filled with shame: "Chief, you are right, they, they have done more than me as a father." He was incompetent, and what he could do for Zijin was not as good as the Zhou family: "For this matter, just find Zhou Zheng alone."
Qiao Dongliang wanted to involve other members of the Zhou family at this time, which would be really shameless, thinking of himself as an ancient emperor, and if he couldn't make trouble and implicate nine clans, he would implicate three clans.
"Okay, since you said so, let's continue the conversation. Nannan is a good child. Because of Qiao Zijin, our family helped Zhou Zheng to hold a stable job, you know this." Without this arrangement, how could the Zhou family be so good to Qiao Zijin, and let Qiao Zijin enjoy the blessing for several years.
Qiao Dongliang was getting more and more embarrassed: "I know, I know." It was just that when he got emotional, he would selectively forget that the only few good years that Qiao Zijin had lived before her death were all thanks to Qiao Nan. Qiao Nan didn't like the Qiao family anymore, but she did everything for them, and she did more than other families with better relationships.
Qiao Nan really gave too much to the Qiao family, but all three of them ignored Qiao Nan's efforts. They only remembered that Qiao Nan was too stingy and held grudges. Just because of that little thing when they were young, he didn't recognize his mother or sister, and his attitude towards his biological father was not particularly good. Zhai Yaohui guided
