Chapter 107: Being blocked
"Give the money from these two red envelopes to mom and I'll take care of it for you. When you grow up, I'll give it to you together."
Then, regardless of whether Qiao Nan agreed or not, he wanted to search the two red envelopes from Qiao Nan.
"No, I can take care of it myself." Qiao Nan slipped like a loach and escaped from Ding Jiayi's hands.
If she gives the money to her mother, she will never be able to touch the money again until she dies. What's more, she has a use for the money.
"Dad, I've finished my meal. I'm going back to my room first!" Given the atmosphere in their home, Qiao Nan was too lazy to watch the Spring Festival Gala with Qiao Zijin and her mother.
"Go ahead." Qiao Dongliang didn't say anything. He was thinking that it was a rare opportunity for the family of four to sit together and watch a TV show in harmony. Any thoughts of reconciling their relationship were completely dispelled by Ding Jiayi's action just now.
Let's just forget it.
If Nan Nan and Lao Ding were allowed to sit together, given Lao Ding's personality, the conflicts between mother and daughter would only get bigger and bigger. He is already very happy, so what's the point of talking about getting more harmonious?
So, on New Year's Eve when other people's families were busy and lively, at Qiao's house, only Ding Jiayi was there watching TV. Even Qiao Zijin went back to her room to read a book.
Looking at the spacious living room, Ding Jiayi was the only one there. She had no idea what was being performed on this year's Spring Festival Gala.
After all, she had stayed up for several nights before. Before ten o'clock, Ding Jiayi, who was already exhausted, could not hold on any longer. She yawned and went back to her room listlessly.
But when Ding Jiayi saw that there were two quilts on the big bed, one was used by Qiao Dongliang and the empty one was obviously for her, Ding Jiayi felt a chill in her heart for some reason.
The two have been married for almost twenty years, and except for the last time they had a fight and slept in separate quilts, they have always slept under the same quilt.
What does Lao Qiao mean by doing this now?
Ding Jiayi always felt that the cold wind blowing outside was not as cold as her home.
After a long time, Ding Jiayi was too lazy to even wash her feet. She took off her shoes and crawled into the quilt to sleep, and she deliberately turned her back to Qiao Dongliang.
Isn't it because she was not nice to Qiao Nan? She just didn't want to be nice to Qiao Nan. Why should she be nice to Qiao Nan?
She has worked hard for most of her life, hasn't it all been for this family and for Lao Qiao? Lao Qiao is so heartless to treat her like this just for Qiao Nan.
Zijin is so outstanding, just like she was back then, sooner or later, she will let everyone know that she is the right one!
Ding Jiayi, who was also quite aggressive in her heart, became even more angry and wanted to argue with Qiao Dongliang even more.
So, on New Year's Eve, the Qiao family was deserted, and on New Year's Day, there was no one at home.
Qiao Dongliang took Qiao Nan to pay New Year's greetings to Mr. Li. As for where Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi went, Qiao Dongliang didn't know, and didn't want to know: "Uncle Li, Happy New Year."
"It's Qiao and Nan Nan. Come and sit down. A-chun, pour two cups of hot tea. Nan Nan, Happy New Year. This is the red envelope your grandpa gives you. I wish you better and better academic performance in the new year and a smoother life in the future." Old Li took out the red envelope he had prepared long ago and stuffed it into Qiao Nan's hand with an attitude that would not allow it to be refused.
All the savings of the Qiao family over the years have been spent on Qiao Zijin, and Mr. Li knows it.
Mr. Li also knows what kind of person Ding Jiayi is.
It's too much for a child of Nan Nan's age to not even have any money.
From Zhu Baoguo, I heard that all of Qiao Nan’s junior high school books were bought from the recycling station, and the previous ones were all sold by Ding Jiayi. Mr. Li was completely speechless about this woman Ding Jiayi.
Mr. Li felt a little regretful. If he had known that Ding Jiayi was such a woman, he would never have seen Ding Jiayi as pitiful and would have tried to match her up with Qiao Dongliang.
But when he saw the child Qiao Nan, he thought, if Qiao Dongliang had not married Ding Jiayi, where would Qiao Nan come from? Without Qiao Nan, who knows what his grandson would be like now. Old Li became conflicted again.
It's true that when you get old, your brain becomes confused as if you're missing a thread when you think about things. The more you think, the more confused you get.
"Thank you, Grandpa Li." Qiao Nan took the red envelope and did not refuse it.
Seeing Qiao Nan's calm and unsurprised look, Mr. Li nodded with satisfaction. It was true that good things come out of bad things. Ding Jiayi was not a good person, but Qiao Nan, who she gave birth to, was a rare good child. "I have something to talk to your father about. Go and play by yourself."
Although he didn't think Qiao Nan was the kind of person who would go crazy, it wasn't appropriate to leave the child around, so Mr. Li let Qiao Nan go and let her make her own arrangements.
"Dad, I'm going out for a walk."
"Go ahead, and be careful." Qiao Dongliang nodded.
Qiao Nan didn't know what Mr. Li wanted to talk to her father about. Qiao Nan had just walked out of the Li family's door and hadn't walked far when she was suddenly stopped by a group of people.
"Are you Qiao Nan?" The leader was a quiet boy with a crew cut, who looked about the same age as Qiao Nan. Although the boy had a smile on his face, Qiao Nan pursed his lips in displeasure. The boy's eyes looked a little strange.
"Who are you?"
"Don't worry about who I am. You should be Qiao Nan." Wang Yang smiled. His fair and clean face should be full of sunshine, but Qiao Nan felt a gloomy and uncomfortable feeling from him: "Qiao Nan, I am not in the habit of beating girls. I will teach you a lesson today. If you don't want to be beaten, you'd better not meddle in trivial matters in the future, and stay away from people you shouldn't get close to. If it happens again, hehe..."
Wang Yang sneered, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Qiao Nan was even colder, just like a poisonous snake that always lurks in the dark and emits a faint green light, which gave Qiao Nan goosebumps.
Qiao Nan was still confused and clenched her fists nervously. The other party obviously didn't want to give her a clear answer and tell her who she shouldn't get close to.
More importantly, the other party seemed determined to beat her up on New Year's Day.
"Come on." Wang Yang was not prepared to fight. Even if Qiao Nan wanted to complain after being beaten, he didn't have to be afraid.
"Girl, don't blame us for being rude." The people around Wang Yang all looked a bit scoundrelly. Although they were young, it was obvious that they were not the type to stay on campus but to mingle in society.
These people saw that Qiao Nan's face was particularly beautiful, especially her eyes that were as black and shiny as black gemstones, and suddenly they laughed.
Wang Yang raised one corner of his mouth and said, "It's fine as long as it's about right. I don't care about the rest. You guys can do whatever you want."
"Thank you very much!" They were paid to do things for Wang Yang, so with Wang Yang's consent, there was nothing for them to be afraid of.
