Chapter 182 Hiding Something from Us
"Zi Jin, if you really want to marry a good man, you have to go to college. Otherwise, in the future, everyone else will be a college student, and you will be just a high school student, and you... " Nowadays, children study a lot. It's not a question of whether they will become successful or have a good job, but that other people's children are college students, and Zi Jin is just a high school student, which doesn't sound good.
To be honest, which wealthy and powerful family would be willing to marry a daughter-in-law with low education?
"I'll think about this again." After being persuaded by Ding Jiayi, Qiao Zijin began to relax his mind.
To put it bluntly, the purpose of studying is not for anything else but to package yourself a few more layers so that you can look good in the future.
Qiao Nan, who stayed in the room, didn't know what Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin talked about. When she came out of the room, Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin had roughly tidied up the house, making it much cleaner than before.
"Let's eat." After more than a month, the family of four finally sat at the same table to eat again. This made Ding Jiayi feel as if she was in a different world and full of nostalgia.
Looking at a plate of green vegetables and a plate of scrambled eggs, Qiao Zijin felt a little hungry: "Mom, Dad is still injured, shouldn't we make something good for him to nourish his body? Not big fish or meat, but at least some vegetables, right?"
"Tomorrow, I'll buy it tomorrow." Ding Jiayi glanced at Qiao Zijin, hinting that Qiao Zijin should stop talking nonsense, and it would be better if she didn't say anything.
In the past month, Ding Jiayi has lost ten kilograms. Almost all the weight she gained in the past ten years was lost in this one month. It can be seen that Ding Jiayi has been really hard-working this month.
Despite working so hard, Ding Jiayi has never had more money in her pocket.
When Qiao Dongliang was in the hospital, Qiao Nan took care of almost all the food supplements that Qiao Dongliang needed.
Ding Jiayi would occasionally open a separate stove for Qiao Zijin, so unlike the fact that Ding Jiayi lost ten pounds, Qiao Zijin actually gained three or four pounds during this half of the summer vacation.
Now the family of four has to sit together to eat again. First of all, Qiao Nan will not prepare any additional dishes. So the responsibility of catering for the family of four falls directly on Ding Jiayi's shoulders.
Ding Jiayi could still open the stove for Qiao Zijin occasionally and eat a little to get by.
But now there are two more mouths to feed, and Ding Jiayi is finding it a bit overwhelmed.
If Ding Jiayi didn't plan carefully, she would have a hard time making ends meet.
"Oh." Qiao Zijin felt relieved immediately when she thought of Qiao Nan's money.
"Nannan, eat more." Qiao Dongliang did not see the eye contact between Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin, but just picked up a piece of egg with chopsticks and put it into Qiao Nan's bowl: "Nannan, you have lost weight again."
"Thank you, Dad." Qiao Nan looked up at Qiao Dongliang and found that there was a hint of flattery and embarrassment in Qiao Dongliang's eyes when he looked at him.
Qiao Nan pursed her lips. It seemed that her father had calmed down now and no longer wanted to divorce her mother.
People are often like this. When you are excited, the more others advise you not to do something, the more you will do it. On the contrary, when others advise you to do something, you hesitate.
Qiao Nan felt a little regretful, but she did not regret what she had said before. It was enough for her father to live a good life. It was time for her to live in the dormitory during high school, and when she went to college, she would go home no more than three months a year.
That's good.
Qiao Dongliang returned home to recuperate, and the three women in the Qiao family could finally sleep peacefully.
The next morning, Qiao Nan got up a little later than usual.
Qiao Nan had just brushed her teeth and washed her face, thinking about leaving the money at Zhai's house, when Qiao Zijin ran over to Qiao Nan with a nervous look on her face: "Nan Nan, hurry up, help me bring Dad back."
"What's wrong? Where is Dad?" Qiao Nan was stunned, and then he realized that Qiao Dongliang was really not at home.
"Doctor, Dad needs to do some proper exercise after he gets home. Isn't that good for his recovery? I thought the weather was good today, so I wanted to help Dad take a walk. But I didn't hold him well enough and he fell. You know I don't have the strength to help Dad up by myself. Come with me."
Qiao Nan was angry and amused. It was rare for Qiao Zijin to care about her father, but it was a pity that she had good intentions but failed to do good things. "Why are you in such a hurry? Dad was in a car accident and his injuries are serious. Even if he needs proper exercise, there's no need to rush now. You, you really are... Forget it, where is Dad? Hurry up and help him back. Is Dad okay?"
"I'm not sure. I was just afraid that Dad's injuries would worsen, so I didn't dare to disturb him and came directly to you for help."
"Okay, lead the way." Qiao Nan sighed: "By the way, where's Mom?"
Qiao Zijin, who was walking in front, stumbled upon hearing this and almost fell down: "It's already this late, where else can mom be? Of course she's going to work!"
"So early?"
"What do you mean early? Don't you know that because of my dad's matter, my boss always asks me to work overtime and make up for the missed shifts. If I don't go, my salary will be deducted. Hurry up, Dad is waiting for us!"
Without giving Qiao Nan time to react, Qiao Zijin ran away.
"Hey..." Qiao Nan was caught off guard and could only run after him, otherwise he would not be able to catch up with Qiao Zijin. He didn't know where Qiao Dongliang was: "Me, why are you in such a hurry?"
"Dad is alone there, what's wrong with me being anxious!" Qiao Zijin gritted her teeth and said, "Qiao Nan, why are you talking so much nonsense today? If you want to help, help me. If you don't want to help, forget it."
"Who is talking more?" Qiao Nan twitched his lips and followed: "Dad!" After a while, Qiao Nan saw Qiao Dongliang sitting aside to rest.
"Nannan, you're here." Qiao Dongliang smiled when he saw Qiao Nan.
Qiao Zijin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Qiao Dongliang was still waiting there. "Dad, you must be tired too. Anyway, we're out now. The air outside is so good. Why don't you sit outside for a while? Nannan, stay with Dad. I saw some buns over there. I'll go buy some. Let's just eat our fill before going back."
It was over. Qiao Zijin felt a pain on her face. She was going to go bankrupt.
"The sun rises from the west today?" Qiao Dongliang was surprised.
Zijin is a child who can't hide money. If he has a dollar in his hand, he won't be able to sleep unless he spends it.
Unless Zijin wants to buy something worth five dollars, he only has one dollar in his hand, and then he will save the money for a while, and once the money reaches five dollars, he will spend it all immediately, just like a mouse leaving no food overnight.
Putting aside the fact that Qiao Zijin could save money, the fact that she was willing to use her own money to buy buns for Qiao Dongliang and Qiao Nan was rare and uncommon enough.
"Sister, are you hiding something from us?"
