Chapter 2018: No Help
The family obviously lived under the same roof, but the atmosphere was even colder than that of strangers. At least when strangers met, they would nod and smile and greet each other.
The relationship between the father and daughter had become worse than before. Ding Jiayi was not dead, so she naturally knew a little bit. But at this moment, Ding Jiayi was still overwhelmed and had a lot of things to deal with. Therefore, she had no extra energy to persuade Qiao Zijin not to be angry with Qiao Dongliang, and to persuade Qiao Dongliang to be more considerate of Qiao Zijin's difficulties and sufferings.
A good family had made their relationship so stiff. The three members of the Qiao family knew it in their hearts, but no one was willing to take the initiative to take that step to ease the relationship between the family members and make it harmonious.
The day after Jia Jia took the high school entrance exam, Qiao Nan received another text message from Qiao Dongliang. Qiao Nan was used to Qiao Dongliang's habit of sending her at least one text message every day, so she took out her phone and opened it. But when she finished reading the content on her phone, Qiao Nan's face changed, and the corners of her mouth that were slightly raised also pulled down.
The text message showed that it was indeed sent by Qiao Dongliang, but after seeing the content of the text message, Qiao Nan said that this content was definitely not written by her father. After thinking about it, Qiao Nan sent a text message back: "If you want to make a scene, go ahead. If you want to embarrass yourself, let's all be embarrassed together, right? It's up to you. After I marry Brother Zhai, we may not settle down in Pingcheng."
Brother Zhai's current unit is in the capital. After the wedding, Brother Zhai's injuries will be almost healed. Qiao Nan knows that that will be the day they leave Pingcheng for the capital. So, Ding Jiayi threatened to make a scene and forced her to meet with him to ask for her help. Qiao Nan made it clear that she didn't buy it at all.
As long as Ding Jiayi had the money and energy, and was willing to chase her all over the country, then she would be more convinced by Ding Jiayi.
Seeing this text message from Qiao Nan, Ding Jiayi was so angry that her eyes bulged out. Ding Jiayi raised her hand and almost broke Qiao Dongliang's phone.
Seeing Ding Jiayi's reaction, Qiao Zijin probably guessed that the content of Qiao Nan's reply must not be very good, but still insisted on taking the phone from Ding Jiayi's hand: "Hey, you really deserve to be someone who has found a long-term meal ticket. You say it with confidence. Mom, are you sure Qiao Nan is still Qiao Nan? Look at what you said. Would the old Qiao Nan dare to say it?"
Ding Jiayi was unhappy, but still... I don’t want to hear this kind of words: “Are you stupid? You can say it in front of me, but don’t say it in front of your dad and that damn girl. Don’t you think about it yourself? If that damn girl is really not my damn girl, don’t tell me whether we should be afraid. If that person is not a damn girl anymore, don’t expect her to treat me as a mother and you as a sister.”
Qiao Nan married well, which is good for them.
No matter how she looks at it, Qiao Nan is still Qiao Nan. How could she not be the same person? She has watched too many TV shows and novels. If that person is not Qiao Nan, no matter how well that woman divides the family, she has nothing to do with their Qiao family. She doesn’t understand such a simple truth. It’s a pity that Zi Jin is still a college student.
Qiao Zijin's face froze. She really had no memory of this: "Don't worry, mom. You've taught me. I will definitely not make this mistake. It's also because TV and novels nowadays show all kinds of messed-up plots. Am I not being led astray? How could Qiao Nan not be Qiao Nan? If she wasn't Qiao Nan, how could she know so much about our family situation?"
Qiao Nan was not as easy to talk to as before, which had caused a lot of inconvenience in her life. If that person really wasn't Qiao Nan, then she would be the first person to suffer. Her mother was right. From her point of view, Qiao Nan couldn't have any accidents. Otherwise, she would definitely be the first person to cry.
Qiao Nan is still Qiao Nan. Qiao Nan has to take care of the Qiao family and support her parents. Qiao Nan cannot escape from any of these responsibilities. Qiao Nan is no longer Qiao Nan, and her parents are certainly not Qiao Nan's parents. This family has nothing to do with Qiao Nan. Qiao Nan has nothing to do, so all these tasks naturally fall on her.
Qiao Zijin patted her head and decided to throw away all the novels she read to kill time. If she hadn't read those novels, how could she have come up with such absurd ideas.
Novels are just novels, and reality is real.
"Then again, Mom, what should I do? Qiao Nan's tone clearly shows that she won't help." After talking for a long time, her problem of becoming a civil servant was still not solved.
"What are you afraid of? Just go and take the exam. For the rest, leave it to me." Qiao Nan said that she wouldn't help. Could she really get away from it and not get involved at all? No, she would use her actions to tell Qiao Nan that there is no such a cheap thing in the world. She could still get things done without Qiao Nan's presence, by using Qiao Nan's name.
If this really works, in the future, even if Qiao Nan wants to be unfilial, she can still make Qiao Nan treat her like the empress dowager and praise her. Qiao Nan will have to listen to every word she says and remember it in her heart, just like before.
Qiao Zijin raised her eyebrows. Seeing her mother like this, it seems that she has really thought of a solution. No matter what, she has said the ugly words in advance. What will happen in the future depends on her mother's performance in this matter.
After making up her mind to throw everything to Ding Jiayi, Qiao Zijin relaxed her mind. Even if she no longer reads novels, the TV and computer at home will naturally not be free.
In the blink of an eye, Jia Jia finished her high school entrance exam. The first day Jia Jia had free time was the wedding day of Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng.
"Wow, aunt, you look so beautiful in a red cheongsam. I've seen so many people wearing white wedding dresses, but today I discovered that the red cheongsams in our country are so beautiful. The hair accessories are also beautiful, just like they were filmed on TV." Jia Jia was jealous. Little girls all love beauty. Seeing Qiao Nan's rare and dazzling beauty, Jia Jia touched her everywhere, looking so rare.
Jia Jia even secretly decided that when she grows up and gets married, she will learn from Qiao Nan and wear a cheongsam instead of a white wedding dress. Western wedding dresses are not as beautiful as their own cheongsams in the East. They really don't know how to appreciate.
