Chapter 2320: Not Opening the Door
But after waiting and calling, Ding Jiayi still didn't come to open the door. Qiao Zijin felt something was wrong: "Mom, what do you mean? I know you are at home, but you don't open the door for me, don't answer my calls, and even change the house key. Mom, don't be too much, okay?"
Qiao Zijin became more and more frightened as she spoke, and then she realized that everything was not right. Judging from these situations, her mother is not targeting her and not letting her go home, right?
Qiao Zijin panicked for a moment, and finally remembered the "good" things she had done to Ding Jiayi before she left the capital: "Mom, I know you are still angry about the capital, can't I apologize to you? Mom, if you have something to say, please open the door first, and we can talk face to face. If you are dissatisfied or unhappy about anything, please tell me, and I will apologize to you. Mom, you always let me stand at the door of the house. If someone sees me, I will be so embarrassed. Mom, please open the door first."
Her mother's temper has become worse as she gets older. In the past, when did her mother dare to be so angry with her and do something targeting her? After all, her mother's bad temper was all caused by her father and Qiao Nan. If it were her, she would not be so nice to her unreasonable mother.
"Mom, I think you are right, so I came back this time, and I will not leave in the future. I will live a good life in Pingcheng. Mom, I bought you a gift when I came back from the capital this time. Mom, open the door and I will give you the gift." No matter what, the most important thing is to coax her mother to open the door and let her in.
"..."
Unfortunately, no matter what Qiao Zijin said or coaxed her today, there was no movement in the house. Ding Jiayi was so quiet that it seemed as if she was not at home at all.
Seeing this, Qiao Zijin couldn't help but wonder if she was hallucinating. Could it be that her mother was really not at home? That's not right. If her mother wasn't at home, her father should be at home. Qiao Zijin had no choice but to call Ding Jiayi again. Who knew that this time the phone was turned off. Well, there was no need to doubt it. Ding Jiayi was indeed in the house. It was true that her phone rang before, but Ding Jiayi turned off her phone on purpose after hanging up her phone.
"Mom, what do you mean? What do you want to say? Can't we just talk it out loud? Even if I'm ignorant and have behaved poorly, you have to explain it to me clearly so that I can die knowingly, right? Mom, you're not angry with me because of what happened in the hospital before, are you? Mom, you know I was sick and went to the hospital. When you came, I had a high fever. So, I wasn't very sober at that time, and my mind was confused. In fact, what I did that day was a little out of control. I guess I was confused at that time. Mom, I'm sorry, don't be angry with me, I didn't mean it, really, I was confused because of my illness."
Ding Jiayi, who had been sitting there doing nothing, reacted a little after hearing this, and moved her feet, as if she wanted to stand up. But within a second, Ding Jiayi regained her composure and let Qiao Zijin perform a one-man show at the doorstep.
Was she sick and confused?
Did she still remember Qiao Zijin's expression and tone that day? If that was a state of Qiao Zijin's illness and confusion, then people of her age would never be able to think clearly. No wonder Old Qiao always scolded her for being confused, saying that she was blind and made the wrong choice between Qiao Zijin and Qiao Nan.
She didn't need confidence. If she had been fair to her two daughters back then and gritted her teeth to support them in their studies, their family would definitely be much better than it is now.
In the past, Ding Jiayi certainly would not agree with Qiao Dongliang's words, but now, Ding Jiayi began to think about a question: Qiao Nan is just a junior high school student, but he has earned so much money for the family. If she really trains Qiao Nan to be a college student, then can Qiao Nan earn more money, and bring her a six-digit income a month?
She has heard that many people who graduated from key universities have entered good companies and worked steadily for ten years, and their annual income exceeds one million.
Ding Jiayi knows what kind of person Qiao Nan is. As a junior high school student, no matter what kind of job Qiao Nan has, those bosses appreciate Qiao Nan and say that Qiao Nan does a particularly good job.
Under such circumstances, it was impossible for Qiao Nan to change jobs. In other words, if Qiao Nan really got into such a unit and worked until now, her annual income would have exceeded one million. Qiao Nan was so good at making money, and with so much money, her life as a mother could be better, and she would have been well fed and well-dressed. Their family should also be like other families, with four wheels, maybe even a BMW, driving it out, how face-saving it would be.
Unfortunately, all of this was ruined by her.
Ding Jiayi sighed deeply. If she had been fairer to Qiao Nan and let Qiao Nan read more books, her relationship with Qiao Nan would not be as bad as it is today. If Qiao Nan had a better relationship with her, and Old Qiao really had a quarrel with her, Qiao Nan would definitely help her instead of Old Qiao. As long as Qiao Nan was on her side, she wouldn't have to worry about Old Qiao daring to quarrel with her.
It was such a pity that she lost such a useful daughter. What's more regrettable is that she only realized it now, but it seems to be more than a little late.
"Mom? Mom!" Qiao Zijin had no idea what was going on in Ding Jiayi's mind at this moment, and she didn't know that Ding Jiayi regretted being nice to her over the years and being mean to Qiao Nan. What Qiao Zijin knew was that she had been shouting for a long time, but her mother didn't respond at all. So what should she do now? She was already at the doorstep, but because she didn't have the key to the new lock and her mother wouldn't open the door for her, she had no way of getting into her house.
Her stomach was growling with hunger, the sun was setting, and the sky was gradually getting darker. If she kept on dawdling, Qiao Zijin wasn't sure if she would be able to get into the house in the end. Another thing was that she had been dragging it out for so long, what if she ran into neighbors who were out for a walk after dinner and saw her situation? She couldn't afford to lose face.
Qiao Zijin didn't deny that she had been very ruthless that day. Looking back now, Qiao Zijin felt that her explanation to Ding Jiayi just now couldn't be more true, she was sick and confused. She couldn't believe that she would take all the money from her mother's pocket and take away her mother's ID card that day. You know, she didn't even want to think about such a thing before, let alone do it.
