Besides money, what else could make her father look so embarrassed?
"Your mother said that we are all family and we should be together during the Chinese New Year. This Mid-Autumn Festival, our family didn't have the opportunity to sit at the same table to eat. What do you think about this, Nannan?" Although Qiao Dongliang felt embarrassed, he also wanted to have this reunion dinner.
He didn't divorce Ding Jiayi. Ding Jiayi was his wife and Qiao Zijin was his daughter. Even if they were divorced, it was rare for the family to sit together and eat a meal in a year. It wasn't something too much.
"Dad, you want it too, don't you?" Qiao Nan pulled the corner of his mouth: "Since Dad wants it too, I have no objection. Do you want to eat at Qiao's courtyard or here?"
"Go back to Qiao's courtyard." This courtyard was lent to them by Pingcheng High School. Considering what Ding Jiayi had done, Qiao Dongliang said that no matter how thick-skinned he was, no matter how much he wanted to have this meal, he would not let this meal be served in this "home".
"Okay, that's settled." Qiao Nan nodded and agreed.
"Nan Nan, will you be unhappy?" Qiao Dongliang was shocked by Qiao Nan's attitude of agreeing. He thought Nan Nan would be unhappy and would not agree.
Who knew that he had thought of a lot of words to persuade Nan Nan, but not a single word came to his mind.
As expected, Nan Nan is the most sensible and obedient in the family, and he doesn't have to worry about anything.
Qiao Nan turned around and said calmly: "There's nothing to be unhappy about." It's just a meal. "I'm
glad you're not unhappy. This year during the Chinese New Year, we'll have a good meal. Don't worry, Nan Nan, your mother won't..." Qiao Dongliang smiled happily.
"Dad, I know." Qiao Nan interrupted Qiao Dongliang. Her mother won't, what won't she do? No matter how honest her mother is, she can't be honest for a few days. Otherwise, she wouldn't have caused such a big disturbance in school before, causing her to almost be unable to continue studying in Pingcheng High School.
If it weren't for Brother Zhai's help, she would have been forced to transfer to another school by her mother.
"That's good to know." As a traditional Chinese, Qiao Dongliang was happy that this year would be no exception. He had a happy and happy New Year. He didn't notice that although Qiao Nan said that she would not be unhappy, she didn't say that she could be happy this New Year.
The days around the New Year always passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, Qiao Dongliang and Ding Jiayi were busy here and there, and it was the New Year's Eve.
"Old Qiao, it's so late today, don't go back, stay." After a few days of getting along, Qiao Dongliang's attitude towards Ding Jiayi improved a lot, and Ding Jiayi became more intimate with Qiao Dongliang.
Thinking of lying in the cold quilt every night and there always being someone missing to warm her, Ding Jiayi grabbed Qiao Dongliang's hand emotionally and refused to let go: "Old Qiao..."
Qiao Dongliang was also somewhat tempted, but finally let Ding Jiayi let go: "No, I'm worried about Nannan being alone at home."
"Nannan is a big kid. She will be an adult after the New Year. She can take care of herself. You can stay, or leave two hours later. Zijin will be asleep anyway." In any case, she would keep Old Qiao first. As for whether she would let Old Qiao go after two hours, that would be a matter for two hours later.
"No way!" Qiao Dongliang's face was stern: "Ding Jiayi, if it were you, would you let Zijin stay alone in the house? Ding Jiayi, is your old problem coming back again? Can't you be at peace for a few days? If you continue to be like this, I think I have to think about whether to have the New Year's Eve dinner together this year."
"What's wrong with me? Why am I restless? Haven't I done well enough in the past six months?" Ding Jiayi just felt wronged.
If it weren't for Lao Qiao's temper, she would have wanted to ask Lao Qiao why he moved a second time without any news last time, which scared her.
"You know in your heart whether you have done well enough or not. If it weren't for Zijin, do you think I would have brought Nannan back this year? Ding Jiayi, you disappoint me so much." The relationship between the two people, which had just eased, immediately returned to the starting point because of Ding Jiayi's words.
Qiao Dongliang's face turned cold, and he shook off Ding Jiayi's hand and walked away without hesitation, without even looking back.
"Are you arguing with my dad again?" Qiao Zijin, who had just woken up and was thirsty and came out to get some water, heard the two people's argument, yawned, and walked over.
"What are you arguing about? It's because that damned girl Qiao Nan kept saying bad things about me in front of your dad's ears. If she hadn't been doing bad things to your dad, would your dad have treated me like this? I really don't know what I did wrong in my last life. I owe her, and I have to pay it back in this life." Ding Jiayi stamped her feet. She could feel that Lao Qiao had been very nice to her recently. She thought she could keep Lao Qiao here today.
"Why does it sound like dad's tone is not right? Mom, let me ask you again, you didn't do anything bad to Qiao Nan this semester, did you?" After Qiao Zijin drank a sip of water, her dry throat felt much better.
"No, no, no! With your dad's attitude, how dare I? Your dad has already moved out with Qiao Nan. If I dare to do anything bad again, I'm not afraid that your dad will divorce me for that dead girl. I can't do such a stupid thing to sacrifice my marriage with your dad just to deal with that dead girl?"
She didn't want this daughter, but it didn't mean that she didn't want her husband.
On the contrary, she not only wanted a husband, but also wanted to spend the rest of her life with the old Qiao couple.
Even if she couldn't bear Qiao Nan for the sake of old Qiao, she would bear it.
"..." Qiao Zijin frowned. She asked her mother several times, and the answer was always the same. To know if it was true, maybe she should find a chance to ask Qiao Nan or her father next time.
"Okay, Dad has left, Mom, you should go to bed as well. If you really want to keep Dad, there is no need to rush today. Isn't New Year's Eve a good opportunity? Dad can't use Qiao Nan as an excuse to leave that day. But Mom, you should be more sensible and don't lose the big picture because of small things. If you don't like Nan Nan, you won't do things nicely and make Dad angry. Qiao Nan has a bad temper. If you do something wrong, Qiao Nan will definitely not control her temper and will immediately turn her face away and leave. That night, you couldn't keep my dad, it was your own fault."
