Chapter 123: You know what's going on
"Mom, I knew you were the best to me." After getting the answer she wanted, Qiao Zijin smiled: "Mom, my classmates and I made an appointment to go buy a new skirt together, Mom." Qiao Zijin stretched out her tone, and the long call of "Mom" made Ding Jiayi's heart melt.
Ding Jiayi let out a long sigh: "Zijin, you know that this year, Mom has already spent all her money for your tuition... Usually, you can save as much as you can, it's not like you don't have clothes to wear. It's not that I don't allow you to buy things, but at least don't buy too much."
"I know, I know. Just this once, I promise you that after you buy this skirt, I won't ask you for money during the whole summer vacation. In fact, I have already discussed with my classmate that during the summer vacation, I will go to work with her. Then, if I really want to buy something, I won't have to ask you for money, mom."
"Work? That's so hard. If you really want to work to earn money, let Qiao Nan do it. Don't get yourself tanned and look ugly." Ding Jiayi immediately expressed her objection.
"Mom, how could I possibly tire myself out? This tool is not hard to make. I can handle it. You have to believe me." Qiao Zijin hugged Ding Jiayi's arm and said, "Mom, when I make money, I will definitely buy you a gift with my first salary. When the time comes, don't think the gift is too small."
"How could that be? Just check if you know." Ding Jiayi's smile was as sweet as if she had eaten candy.
Qiao Nan, who came out to pour water, heard the idiotic conversation between the mother and daughter and smiled speechlessly: "Sister, are you going to work?"
Although she didn't know how Qiao Zijin's mother came up with the money for tuition this year, it was definitely not earned by her mother or saved from the past. She probably borrowed it from someone.
Do I not have to pay back the borrowed money?
Qiao Zijin is really good at working, but can’t she save the money and ask her mom less for tuition?
It's true that Qiao Zijin wants to spend money herself and buy gifts for her mother, which is just a way to coax her. But her mother acts as if all Qiao Zijin's farts are fragrant, which makes Qiao Nan speechless.
"Why, do you look down on me? Nan Nan, it's not you or me. It's not easy for dad to make money. You have your vacation earlier than me, and your summer vacation is so long, you should go out and find some work to do to reduce the burden on dad. We are not grown up yet, but we still have to learn to be filial." Qiao Zijin raised his chin and started to lecture Qiao Nan directly.
"Listen, look how sensible your sister is. Only you are heartless and only know how to spend the family's money!" Ding Jiayi agreed.
"Why do I remember that my sister spent all the family savings last year. During the more than two-month vacation, she didn't even go out." In this life, Qiao Nan would not be so shameless as to go to work just because someone said a few insults, and the money she earned from working hard would end up being used to buy new clothes and shoes for Qiao Zijin.
After that, Qiao Nan no longer cared about Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin's reactions. After pouring the water, he returned to his room.
"Old Qiao, I want to discuss something with you." In the evening, Ding Jiayi pulled Qiao Dongliang to sit on the bed and talk.
"."
"Qiao Nan has finished her exams this time. Which school are you going to send her to?"
"As long as Nan Nan can get in, it will be the affiliated high school." Qiao Dongliang said as a matter of course.
"No!" Ding Jiayi shook her head: "This is not appropriate. If Qiao Nan goes to the affiliated middle school, what about Zi Jin?"
Qiao Dongliang didn't understand what Ding Jiayi meant at first: "Nannan is Nannan, Zijin is Zijin, it's not a choice between the two, what do you mean Nannan goes to the affiliated middle school and what should Zijin do?"
"Regarding the composition, if Qiao Nan went to the affiliated middle school, what would your teachers there think of Qiao Nan and Zi Jin? Zi Jin, the composition matter hasn't spread throughout the school yet. If Qiao Nan went to the affiliated middle school, would Qiao Nan be able to hold back when others asked about it? If this matter spread completely, would Zi Jin still be able to continue studying? Yes, Zi Jin was wrong in this matter, but does a person who makes a mistake have no chance to correct it? Is it okay to keep harping on this point? Old Qiao, don't always think about Qiao Nan and ignore Zi Jin just because Qiao Nan's grades are better than Zi Jin's."
"So you mean to sacrifice Nan Nan for Zi Jin? On what grounds?" The Affiliated High School is such a good school, his two daughters are students of the Affiliated High School, it's such a good thing, why can't he let Nan Nan go to the Affiliated High School.
"No, I didn't sacrifice Qiao Nan for Zi Jin, I did it for the five thousand yuan. Old Qiao, I know you blame me for spending the money without consulting you, and for asking Uncle Li for help. But Zi Jin is our daughter, and helping her is helping ourselves. After spending the five thousand yuan, Zi Jin's grades are getting better and better, and she is making more and more progress. She will soon have a bright future. If Zi Jin is distracted by this and can't study well, the five thousand yuan will be wasted. Isn't the money wasted? Moreover, Qiao Nan is smart and good at studying. Then let me ask you, Qiao Nan can only get good grades if she goes to the Affiliated High School, and she can't get good grades if she goes to other schools? Qiao Nan is not Zi Jin, Zi Jin's foundation is weaker than Qiao Nan's, and she can't learn well without a good teacher. Is Qiao Nan like this? Old Qiao, you have too little confidence in Qiao Nan, she relies on herself, not the teacher, and not going to the Affiliated High School will not have any impact on her. "
"..." Qiao Dongliang looked at Ding Jiayi in surprise: "So you know Nannan is very smart and her academic performance is really good, which Zijin can't compare to. I thought that in your eyes, Zijin is the only smart child in the world, and everyone else is a fool."
"..." After hearing what Qiao Dongliang said, Ding Jiayi really wanted to slap herself in the face.
Why do you act like you're lost in a trance? You're talking nonsense.
Ding Jiayi's face turned pale, and Qiao Dongliang smiled: "Okay, I guess you haven't realized that what you just said was all in your heart. See, you actually know that Nannan's grades are much better than Zijin's. You think from the bottom of your heart that Nannan is not not going to the affiliated high school. With Nannan's ability, her grades will definitely not be bad. Knowing that Nannan is smart and will have a great future, why don't you treat Nannan better? It is our blessing to have a daughter like Nannan. What are you making a fuss about? Do you have to make Nannan not want to recognize you as her mother?"
"How dare she deny me? I gave birth to her!" Ding Jiayi said stubbornly, "Okay, let's not discuss this. What did you think of what I said just now? Can you please tell me the truth?"
She just didn't want Qiao Nan to study at the same time as Zi Jin and delay Zi Jin's studies.
As for those words praising Qiao Nan, Ding Jiayi didn't understand how she came up with them, and how she did it so naturally.
"You have to let me think about this matter carefully, and I also have to ask Nan Nan for her own opinion." Qiao Dongliang had a serious look on his face and didn't want to make a decision immediately.
