Chapter 2113: Filial Piety
"I don't want to think about the old Ding family like that, and I don't want to mention it again. Old Qiao, don't force me."
Qiao Dongliang smiled lightly, and his smile was very sarcastic: "Old Ding, do you think your life was harder when you were still in Old Ding's house, or is Nan Nan's life harder growing up in our house?"
"Of course I am more miserable. Compared with us, the children of Zijin's generation are really extremely happy!" Is there any need to compare? They are not children of the same generation. The later the children are born, the happier they are. There is no comparison between the two, okay?
"Then how about you count for me? How much happier is Nannan than you are at Old Ding's house?"
"She was so happy. We didn't need her to eat or drink. She had everything, from fish to meat. When I was young, if there was meat at home, it was either eaten by the adults or my two younger brothers. I couldn't even touch it. She studied for so many years, but I didn't even have the chance to go to school!"
Qiao Dongliang looked far away: "So she is happier than you? I originally thought that the society and the country are getting better and better, so the children who come after her are really happy and eat better than us. But if I remember correctly, Nan Nan came several years later than Zi Jin, right? Is Nan Nan really eating so well? You can lie to me, but don't lie to yourself. I am a man, but I don't understand. Seeing Nan Nan's situation, I understand what she doesn't understand. Yes, Nan Nan has a school to go to, but the problem is that the country has nine years of compulsory education. Nan Nan only finished the second year of junior high school. She only studied for eight years and then went to work. The money she earned from work was spent on supporting the family, and she didn't spend a penny on herself. Happy? Really happy! You have to support your younger brother in Lao Ding's family, but Nan Nan, as a younger sister in this family, has to support her older sister. Happy? Really happy!"
Qiao Dongliang couldn't say the following words: "The water has been poured out, and you have finished talking. I am going back to my room. What I regret most now is that I always taught Nannan to be filial and not to get angry with the elders or talk back. I taught Nannan so much, but why didn't I teach her that kindness has its limits, and that she should respect herself and love herself while being filial. If Nannan had the courage to run away from the old Ding family and marry me, how many more good days would you have lived?"
Ding Jiayi is such an opinionated person. Even if the old Ding family made a lot of mistakes, they shouldn't be too wrong towards Ding Jiayi.
After Qiao Dongliang returned to his room, Ding Jiayi was still in shock for a long time. When she found herself alone in the living room again, she was extremely upset. Old Qiao meant to compare Qiao Nan with her. Old Qiao felt that Qiao Nan had a harder life than she did, and she was worse than her mother?
Bullshit, how can she be worse than her mother? No, no, that's not the case. She is not the same kind of person as her mother. She is much better than her mother. What's wrong with Qiao Nan not finishing her nine-year compulsory education? She didn't even go to school and could only follow her brother. She is obviously much better than her mother. Qiao Nan is just happier than her!
Ding Jiayi was relieved and felt that some things were empty no matter how much they said, and a hundred nice words were not as good as one truth. After she gave Lao Qiao the 200,000 yuan, she didn't believe that Lao Qiao still had the same attitude towards her.
Still the same attitude? Facts have proved that even with the 200,000 yuan, Qiao Dongliang has no intention of changing his attitude towards Ding Jiayi.
With a bigger goal waiting for him, Qiao Zijin handled the 200,000 yuan quickly and efficiently. In less than two hours, Qiao Zijin handed the bank card with 200,000 yuan in it to Ding Jiayi. Ding Jiayi didn't even want to warm the bank card. She turned around and gave it to Qiao Dongliang like a treasure: "Old Qiao, here is the 200,000 yuan that Zijin gave us for retirement. You can keep all this money in the future and manage it yourself."
Seeing the two hundred thousand yuan, which was given to him, Qiao Dongliang felt curious: "Where did the money come from?" It was impossible for Lao Ding to have so much money.
"Zijin is filial to us." Ding Jiayi certainly wouldn't, this money was taken from Qiao Zijin by her, from the bottom of her heart, Qiao Zijin might not be very happy or willing. The money has already been received, so naturally she would choose the right words: "Old Qiao, from now on, you will be in charge of our family's money, I have no objection. I was in charge before, from now on, you will be in charge."
Ding Jiayi still remembered how Qiao Dongliang quarreled with her. Since Qiao Dongliang started to care about these things, then they should each have half. She used to be the head of the family, but in the future, Qiao Dongliang will be the head of the family. She had no objection to this. Why did the matter between husband and wife have to be so serious as to lead to divorce?
Looking at the bank card in Ding Jiayi's hand, Qiao Dongliang was gloomy. He was unsure whether to accept the card. After hesitating for half a minute, Qiao Dongliang took it. Seeing that Qiao Dongliang was willing to accept the money, Ding Jiayi was happy: "Old Qiao, you are not angry with me anymore. We are reconciled. Can I move back? You don't know, that room is special. It was so hot before. I thought I couldn't stand it."
Ding Jiayi didn't want to recall how she survived the seven months and three months in that room. Thanks to Qiao Zijin's kindness, she got used to the air conditioning when she was at Chen's house, so she had long since asked her parents' house to install air conditioning. Yes, Ding Jiayi slept in the living room for the seven months and three months, and she almost never went back to her room.
Because once she got back to that stuffy room, Ding Jiayi felt like she would pass out if she stayed there for another minute. That room, especially in the summer, was not a place for people to stay.
Having lived in that room for more than half a year, Ding Jiayi especially missed the big room she shared with Qiao Dongliang. Ding Jiayi thought that Qiao Dongliang had accepted the 200,000 yuan, which meant that they had reconciled. Since they had reconciled, it was only natural for her to move back to the room with her husband.
Ding Jiayi had no idea that being mean-spirited was the worst thing in the world. If you don't do it, you'll die. Sometimes this is the case.
Even if he received the 200,000 yuan, it would be impossible for Qiao Dongliang to completely forgive Ding Jiayi for the different failure educations she gave to Qiao Zijin and Qiao Nan. After Ding Jiayi said this, Qiao Dongliang's eyes only became colder when he looked at Ding Jiayi: "Really? You slept in that room for less than a year, and you slept in the living room all summer. But Nan Nan lived in that room until she moved out. Didn't you always think that this room was good? Nan Nan could live there for more than ten years, but you couldn't even stand it for a year?"
"..." Ding Jiayi never thought that Qiao Dongliang would bring up this old matter.
