Chapter 125 Is it time to change someone?
Qiao Dongliang couldn't control Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin, so he just saved as much as he could.
Apart from home, Qiao Dongliang, a grown man, has managed to not spend five dollars a month outside. Even when he had a rare meal outside at noon, Qiao Dongliang did not dare to buy meat, all were vegetarian, and he only ordered one vegetarian dish at a time.
But as the head of the family, no matter how worried Qiao Dongliang was, he was embarrassed to share his worries with the three women in the family.
Qiao Dongliang always thought that the person who cared about him the most in the family was his wife Ding Jiayi, but who would have thought that it was actually his usually taciturn daughter.
"Nannan, when you went to Pingzhong, did you see that your dad was worried about money?" Qiao Dongliang sniffed, his voice a little choked.
"Well, if my sister and I both want to go to college, I know you and mom can't afford it." Qiao Nan responded calmly: "I know my sister and I are different. My parents have always liked my sister more. I know what mom meant when she insisted that I go to work. It's rare that dad is willing to support me to continue my studies. I can't make money, but at least I have to help dad reduce some of the burden in other ways."
"Nannan, isn't Dad really useless? My daughter wants to give birth, but I can't afford to raise her." Qiao Dongliang's tone was full of bitterness. It turned out that his daughter had known all along, but she had nothing and endured everything silently: "Nannan, do you feel wronged?"
"At first I felt wronged. I didn't understand why my sister and I were both our parents' daughters, so why were there so many differences? But after a while, I didn't feel anything anymore."
The calmer Qiao Nan's mood was, the more Qiao Dongliang blamed himself. The child had been wronged for so long that he had become numb and almost had no feelings for his parents.
No wonder. No wonder that in the past year, every time he quarreled with Lao Ding, Nan Nan didn't say anything and didn't try to persuade him.
"Dad, go to work and don't have to worry about this anymore. You still have at least two years to raise money for my sister's college tuition. As for mine, we'll deal with it later." Thinking of the Qiao family's financial situation, Qiao Nan also had a severe headache.
Given her current situation, she could indeed find a job during the summer vacation, and she would definitely earn more than Qiao Zijin.
But she just didn't want their family to develop a habit, thinking that she could make money and solve any problem on her own. That was not enough. If they encountered any financial problems, they could still ask her for help.
In her previous life, she had served as a mobile ATM for her mother and Qiao Zijin.
"Well, summer vacation has finally come. You should rest more and stop reading all the time. It's not good for your eyes." Qiao Dongliang cheered up. Nan Nan had thought so much about him. If he didn't cheer up, how could he be worthy of Nan Nan's call of "Dad".
"Old Qiao, you seem to be in a good mood today." Qiao Dongliang arrived at the factory. His colleagues greeted him with a smile when they saw him: "How's the matter? Have you solved your problem?"
"Is it so obvious?" Qiao Dongliang touched his chin.
"That's right, but don't you see how sharp my eyes are? Have you solved the problem of money for my daughter's education?" The colleague was aware of Qiao Dongliang's situation. He knew that Qiao Dongliang had raised two daughters, and both daughters were in school, with only one grade difference between them.
This book becomes more expensive the further you read it.
"My daughter has good grades and is expected to be admitted to Zhengzhou High School. If she is admitted and her ranking is good enough, she can go to Pingzhong High School and not pay tuition, but also receive scholarships."
"Really, your daughter is so successful!" The colleague was surprised: "She didn't go to the affiliated middle school but went to Pingzhong. Old Qiao, you are so lucky. No wonder the old people always think daughters are like cotton-padded jackets. If my stinky boy had been more competitive and stopped making me angry about his grades, it would have been filial to me. Now, having a son is really not as useful as having a daughter."
"My Nan Nan is very well behaved."
"But, Old Qiao, isn't your eldest daughter also a student of the Affiliated High School? Why didn't she do the same thing at the beginning? If she had been admitted to Pingzhong in the same way, your two daughters would have been able to attend high school for free. When your two daughters go to college, the money will flow out like water. You can't spend as fast as you earn. You should save as much as you can during the three years of high school."
Qiao Dongliang's expression changed: "My eldest daughter is not as sensible and considerate as my daughter."
Not only did Zijin save some money for him, but he still spent all the money in the family to have the opportunity to study in the affiliated high school.
Nan Nan had the opportunity to attend the affiliated middle school, but in order to save money, she would rather go to Pingzhong. Zi Jin couldn't pass the entrance exam, but she still insisted on going.
After comparing his two daughters, Qiao Dongliang became a little hesitant.
Raising a son is a way to provide for one's old age. He has no son, so he wants to keep Zijin at home and find a son-in-law. But with Zijin's personality, can he rely on Zijin to provide for him in his old age?
Under the current circumstances, Nan Nan is obviously much more filial than Zi Jin.
"Is that so? That's good. Both of your daughters are good at studying. It's a blessing to have one who is so sensible. Raising a daughter like this is really much less troublesome than raising a son." After patting Qiao Dongliang's shoulder, the colleague went about his own business.
The colleague's words stirred Qiao Dongliang's heart. An idea came to his mind, and he secretly weighed this possibility in his heart.
If he really wanted to choose a daughter to keep by his side, he should of course choose a better daughter, a daughter who could be stronger than his son.
At that time, Zijin seemed more flexible, sweet-spoken and capable than Nannan.
But looking at the current situation, even though Nan Nan usually keeps silent, she has a scale in her heart and knows everything clearly.
Qiao Nan had no idea that her early plan would lead to such a change in Qiao Dongliang. The reason why she did not go to the affiliated high school was indeed because ordinary high school could exempt tuition and miscellaneous fees, but more importantly, she wanted to stay away from Qiao Zijin to avoid being schemed and bullied by Qiao Zijin again.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Zijin also had this idea, and she did Qiao Nan a big favor for nothing, allowing Qiao Nan to strongly assert her presence in front of Qiao Dongliang and establish the image of a good daughter.
At this moment, Qiao Dongliang had only one thing in his mind, that is, if you want to raise a daughter, you should raise her like this.
Qiao Nan, who was still at home, was stunned when he saw the empty house.
It's really rare that after the holiday, Qiao Zijin sometimes goes out earlier than her.
There is no one at home, is it necessary for her to go to Zhai's house to review?
"Is anyone there?" Before Qiao Nan could decide whether to go to Zhai's house, a strange male voice was heard outside the Qiao family's door.
"Who is it?!" Qiao Nan became alert and did not dare to open the door for anyone.
Qiao Nan walked to the window and looked out. Seeing the blurry and tall figure, Qiao Nan felt confused. Who was this?
It was not until Qiao Nan vaguely saw the man's familiar features that she realized the man's identity: "It's him, why is he here?"
