Chapter 1711: Concession
"But you are a laborer and the main source of income for the Qiao family." Zhou Xing was particularly entangled and conflicted. She seemed to be struggling, struggling whether she should accept this truth that was completely opposite to what she heard more than ten years ago.
If Zhou Xing grew up in a normal family environment with both parents, she might not be able to judge from Qiao Dongliang's words which of his two daughters Qiao Dongliang preferred. But Zhou Xing was not such a simple and ignorant girl. Zhou Xing,
who was only seventeen years old, had already deeply understood how important money was to survive in this society. At the same time, the economy is inflated, money is becoming less and less valuable, and what is valuable is often other things, such as houses.
She has lost her mother, but she still has a biological father.
Under such circumstances, her father did not think of leaving everything he had to his daughter. What made her even more unacceptable was that her father had put a lot of thought into the money and house left to her by her grandparents, and coaxed her like a three-year-old child, trying to cheat her out of it. Grandpa
was also a father, and when he divorced, he spent all the money on her mother and left the house to her mother and grandmother. From this point of view, grandpa's love for her mother is a hundred times, a thousand times greater than her father's feelings for her.
Grandpa really brought nothing to Qiao Nan except himself.
"But I am not a laborer in this family, nor am I a tool for Ding Jiayi and your mother to make money. Human feelings require investment before there is gain. I have told you how Ding Jiayi taught your mother. Do you think Ding Jiayi's teaching method is right? Is your mother still normal after growing up under such teaching? Of course, at that time, I didn't know that Ding Jiayi taught your mother in this way. I was just heartbroken. All my efforts in the first half of my life were for your mother. Your mother turned around and thought I was useless and couldn't let her live a good life. As the daughter of a high-ranking official, she had no worries about food and clothing and endless money. At that time, I was still lying in the hospital. I had an operation with the money your aunt borrowed from others. I went back and forth to the gates of hell."
"..." Zhou Xing bit her lip, unable to go against her conscience and say that as a father, Qiao Dongliang should be selfless and uncomplaining to her mother. Even if her mother really treated Qiao Dongliang like a cow, Qiao Dongliang should satisfy her mother's request even if he worked himself to death.
With Zhou Zheng as a father, Zhou Xing could understand how good Qiao Dongliang was as a father. Compared to her, as a daughter, her mother was much, much happier than her.
Grandma's teaching method was wrong, but she was really good to her mother, and she was really partial and cold-blooded to Qiao Nan. Similarly, grandpa was very kind to her mother. Grandpa had more than one daughter, but he gave almost everything he had to her mother. Don't think that parents should give their children what they want, and that all parents in the world are like this.
No, it's not like that. Her father has never been so good to her, not even for a single day.
"After entering high school, your aunt had good grades and was exempted from tuition and miscellaneous fees. When she went to college and reached the age, she married your uncle directly. Of course, your aunt didn't have to spend my money on all her expenses. When you really count it, how many years have I raised your aunt for? Apart from feeding your aunt and helping her grow up, my contribution to her is pitifully little compared to your mother."
In the first few years, it was the nine-year compulsory education stipulated by the state. Nan Nan only had to pay for textbooks to go to school. Later, when she was no longer required to work and had to pay a lot of money, Nan Nan worked hard to get herself exempted from tuition fees with her grades. When she went to college, she married a good husband.
Her father was of no use, and this was the truth of everything.
Zhou Xing gritted his teeth tightly, his face turning purple and blue: "I don't know if I should believe what you said. You said something different from grandma, and even what you said, grandma never mentioned it."
Grandma only told her that grandpa cared about Qiao Nan, the little daughter, and for Qiao Nan, grandpa and grandma divorced. After the divorce,
grandpa wanted Qiao Nan, not her mother. Her mother was raised by grandma and supported to finish school. This was the truth she had always believed. She never thought that as early as when the two sisters were in junior high school, in order to let her mother go to school better, the Qiao family had already had a dispute over whether Qiao Nan should take a part
-time job to support her mother's education. Qiao Nan's grades were obviously better than hers, and her mother's grades were not comparable to Qiao Nan's. However, the dispute was about whether Qiao Nan should take a part-time job to support her mother's education. Based on this point alone, Zhou Xing had to doubt everything her grandmother had told her over the years. She was afraid that she had only said part and concealed part.
What her grandmother said was beneficial to her, and what she concealed was disadvantageous to her and her mother. But this missing part was closer to the truth. Without this part of the description, her judgment of right and wrong lost its most powerful basis, resulting in the bad result of wrong judgment.
"Let me put it this way, you can choose not to believe me, but for the time being, clear out everything Ding Jiayi has told you. Before Ding Jiayi and I divorced, until your aunt went to high school, our family of four lived in the Qiao family's small courtyard. The neighbors must still remember what happened in our family. Go back and ask around, and if you still don't believe it, you can go to your aunt's high school to ask. Ding Jiayi and your mother are too noisy. I think that even though it has been 20 or 30 years, there must be many people who remember these things."
Qiao Dongliang was not afraid that Zhou Xing would not believe it, but he was afraid that Zhou Xing would not even bother to check and would just listen to what he heard and believe it. As long as he checked, he had a bunch of witnesses to prove that everything he said was true.
"I know." Zhou Xing lowered her voice again: "I can guess the purpose of your visit to me today, even if you haven't mentioned it yet. Between my mother and Qiao Nan... I may have misunderstood you, but I know who you chose between my and Qiao Nan's three children. I didn't misunderstand you."
The palms and backs of the hands are all flesh, and grandpa would not have no feelings for her granddaughter at all. The problem is that Qiao Nan has three children, and she only has one, and the flesh on the palms is more than a little thicker than the backs of the hands.
