"I owe you, so I have to pay you back?" Qiao Dongliang sneered: "Who was the one who suggested having a second child, a son?" At the beginning,
Lao Ding said that it was too lonely to have only one child, Zijin, and wanted to have a second child. Because it conflicted with the family planning policy, Lao Ding said that he wanted to have another child, and his career and future were not as important as a child.
Qiao Dongliang did not deny it. He was a traditional Chinese man and felt that only a son could carry on the family line, but he did not force it.
Later, after listening to his wife's suggestion, he was also tempted or confused for a while. In order to have a son, he lost his job and future .
Qiao Dongliang regretted not having Qiao Nan, a little daughter, but that he should not have sacrificed everything just to have a son.
If not, his wife would not have blamed Nan Nan for not having a son and the work.
"Old Ding, just because I don't tell you something doesn't mean I don't know it. You should know what your Ding family is like and how you grew up. Are you going to let Nan Nan suffer the same hardships you once experienced? Is it Nan Nan who owes you, or is it you who owes Nan Nan?"
Ding Jiayi grew up in a family that favors boys over girls. The reason why the old cadre of Qiao's father's friend introduced Ding Jiayi to Qiao Dongliang was to find a way out for both of them. Qiao Dongliang's
biological parents are gone, and he has almost no relatives.
It is difficult for a man like this to find a wife.
Unfortunately, when he was in the army, Qiao Dongliang was only a platoon leader, only slightly better than an ordinary soldier, and his future was not obvious, so it was difficult for him to find a partner. If he was not good enough, he would not be accepted, but if he was good enough, people would not like him.
As a result, Qiao Dongliang's choice of wife became more and more awkward and difficult to find.
As for Ding Jiayi, the living conditions of the Ding family were not bad, but Ding Jiayi had three younger brothers.
Ding's father and mother calculated that they had to marry their three sons in a grand manner, and they had to have a house. After calculating, they found that the family did not have enough money.
So, Ding's father and mother set their sights on their eldest daughter Ding Jiayi.
The three younger brothers were all raised by Ding Jiayi, but even so, Ding Jiayi's status in the Ding family was like that of a little maid, who did the most work and ate the least, and was still scolded for doing so.
Ding Jiayi was quite smart. When her eldest brother was learning, she would always read his books while taking care of him.
Sometimes, Ding Jiayi could teach her eldest brother about problems that he didn't understand when he was in school.
In this way, Ding Jiayi stumbled and stumbled and finished her elementary school education by herself. At least she knew a lot of Chinese characters.
In Ding Jiayi's era, she was considered to have a high level of education.
When Ding Jiayi grew up, her parents didn't think of keeping their eldest daughter at home, so that they could bring all the money they earned from work back home.
Their idea was to find a "good family", ask for more dowry money, and then marry their eldest daughter off as soon as possible.
At that time, not only had Ding's father and mother found a good man, but they had also agreed on the price of the bride price. They said they were marrying off their daughter, but in fact many people knew that they were basically selling their daughter.
The man that Ding Jiayi was going to marry was not only short and ugly, but also in his forties, older than Ding's father.
But the problem was that after that red era, this man was lively, a pioneer, had a good class background, and had some power.
Ding's father was essentially finding a son-in-law who was an official.
The man's age and ugly appearance did not count, and the worst thing was that he had a bad temper. No one could tell how the previous wife who died died.
When Ding Jiayi heard that she was going to marry such a man, she was so scared that she didn't want to die.
This matter was passed around and finally reached the ears of the old cadres. The old cadres calculated that the son of his old friend was serving in the army, but his old friend was framed. On the surface, his background was not good, and there were no other relatives in his family. He was worried about finding a wife.
This girl, she was good-looking and literate, but her family was not very reliable. If the two of them were willing, they could get together.
The old cadres did not want to mess around, so they explained the situation of both parties to each other and let Qiao Dongliang and Ding Jiayi consider it themselves.
When Ding Jiayi heard about Qiao Dongliang's situation, she nodded immediately.
At that time, no job was better than being a soldier.
No elders at home? Well, if she gets married, she will be the head of the family. She will also have two fewer elders to supervise her and serve two fewer people.
Without brothers, there is no brother. As long as your man is ambitious, it is better than anything else.
Ding Jiayi agreed quickly. Qiao Dongliang hesitated for a while, but finally agreed. The two got married and started a family.
Relying on Qiao Dongliang's relationship, Ding Jiayi, with the help of the old cadres, not only got married and had a new life, but also got a good and respectable new job. Her life was a qualitative leap.
At that time, Ding Jiayi felt that marrying Qiao Dongliang was the best decision she had made in her life.
The Ding family has a strong idea of valuing boys over girls. Ding Jiayi started working as a nanny since she was a child. She raised her three younger brothers one by one and took care of everything at home.
After having her eldest daughter, Ding Jiayi was not disappointed for long. She treated her eldest daughter very well, as if she wanted to make up for the happy childhood she missed on her eldest daughter.
Although they were both daughters, Qiao Nan was treated very differently.
"It was you who said that I could give up my job in order to have a second child. It was you who forced me to have this second child. For this, I left my favorite unit. Old Ding, for this child, I have sacrificed more than you. Nan Nan is not a son but a daughter. Who can you blame? Can you blame her? You yourself are not pregnant, and you still have the nerve to blame your daughter?!"
Qiao Dongliang couldn't help but get angry when he said the last part.
With his eldest daughter, Qiao Dongliang finally figured it out and told himself that it was good to have a son or daughter, and that he really liked the life in the army. He liked being a soldier, and his father always said that he was born to be a soldier.
Even if it was to stay in the army, Qiao Dongliang had already figured out that he should just raise this daughter honestly.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Dongliang gave up and Ding Jiayi started to make a fuss about having a son.
"You blame me now?!" Ding Jiayi was like a hedgehog, with all the quills on her body standing up: "Who said that sons and daughters are equally good? Don't blame me for making your Qiao family extinct. Old Qiao, your thinking is too backward!" What
Ding Jiayi couldn't stand the most was that her belly was not doing well. Because of giving birth to two daughters in a row, both of them lost their jobs.
Because of this, Ding's mother once came to find the daughter who married far away, holding her grandson and mocking Ding Jiayi for being heartless, so God opened his eyes and made her unable to give birth to a son.
