Chapter 62: Dinner Chat
Fortunately, Qiao Nan acted as if she didn't hear anything, which made Zhu Baoguo feel a little better.
Because Qiao Dongliang helped Qiao Nan take on this "private job" of Zhu Baoguo, Qiao Nan began to take care of Zhu Baoguo at school from Monday to Friday, and at the Li family on weekends.
The Zhu family and the Li family did not have high expectations for Zhu Baoguo's academic performance. They just hoped that Zhu Baoguo could be quieter recently.
So Qiao Nan taught Zhu Baoguo for half a month, and the people from the Zhu family and the Li family never asked Zhu Baoguo how his studies were going recently.
This weekend, Qiao Zijin returned home and found Qiao Nan was not at home early on Saturday morning. Qiao Zijin frowned and said, "Mom, Qiao Nan ran away again?"
Where on earth is Qiao Nan hiding to read?
"Mom, why has Qiao Nan been acting like a rat lately? How many rat holes does she have? She goes out so much on weekends and doesn't stay at home. Don't you do anything about it? Where did Qiao Nan put her books? It's impossible for someone to give them to her for free."
"How should I know?" Ding Jiayi prepared breakfast and put it on the table: "Hurry up and wash up, eat and read well. Don't let Qiao Nan outsmart you. Mom has to go to work. As for other things, we can talk about it after Mom gets home from get off work."
After that, without caring about Qiao Zijin's reaction, Ding Jiayi went straight to work.
"Hmph, everyone is so busy." Qiao Zijin felt uncomfortable as she was the only one left in the empty house.
In the past, on weekends, her father would go to work and Qiao Nan would do housework, and she would just chat with her mother, but now she is alone.
Anyway, she was free and it was impossible for her to read at home. If she went out to look for Qiao Nan, she might find Qiao Nan hiding somewhere reading.
This thought stopped the moment Qiao Zijin opened the door to go out. The courtyard was not big, and the whole Pingcheng was not big either. Where could she find Qiao Nan?
After thinking about it, Qiao Zijin rolled her eyes and took out the romance novel she borrowed from the library from her schoolbag to read.
Qiao Dongliang has somewhat controlled Qiao Zijin's expenses. Even though Ding Jiayi is now working, she will give Qiao Zijin a little more. Because of the dance dress she wore before, Qiao Zijin still owes a few dollars in foreign debt, which she has to pay back slowly.
So now when Qiao Zijin wants to watch a movie, she doesn’t dare to buy it anymore, but borrows it instead. Not only does this save money, but she can also return it directly after watching the movie, and she won’t be caught by her family.
While lying on the bed watching her favorite movie, Qiao Zijin suddenly thought that it was actually quite good to be the only one at home.
If Qiao Nan was there, she would have to worry about whether Qiao Nan would come into her room, find her looking, and then complain to her parents.
"Nannan, I only go home once every two weeks, and you haven't even had a good talk with me. Where have you been all this time?" During dinner, Qiao Zijin asked Qiao Nan in front of the whole family: "Even if you really want to stay out, at least come back for lunch, right?"
At first, Qiao Zijin was the only one at home, which was nice, as it was quiet and no one disturbed her.
But by noon, Qiao Zijin was unhappy.
Ding Jiayi is not at home, and Qiao Nan does not go home, so there is no one to cook for Qiao Zijin.
Unlike Qiao Nan who takes care of all the housework, Qiao Zijin knows nothing about housework. She would be scared by caterpillars even when washing vegetables, so how could she possibly cook?
Ding Jiayi was so busy chatting that she didn't think about this and went to work.
With no other choice, Qiao Zijin went to Ding Jiayi and Qiao Dongliang's room, took out fifty cents to buy a pack of instant noodles, and then dealt with the situation.
When Ding Jiayi heard Qiao Zijin mention lunch, she realized that her eldest daughter didn't know how to cook at all.
However, in front of her husband, Ding Jiayi was not in a position to ask her eldest daughter how she solved the problem of lunch.
Qiao Nan raised her eyelids and curled the corners of her mouth sarcastically. She didn't start not going home on weekends this week, it has been more than a month.
This is because her mother is at work and there is no one to prepare lunch for Qiao Zijin, so Qiao Zijin is "concerned" about her.
"Zi Jin, you don't have to worry about Nan Nan. Nan Nan is at the Li family, and nothing will happen to her." At this point, Qiao Dongliang felt embarrassed.
This was something that Mr. Li had specifically ordered. Qiao Dongliang knew that Mr. Li had heard that Qiao Nan was suffering from malnutrition, so he specifically asked Qiao Nan to stay at the Li family for dinner.
Thinking of this, Qiao Dongliang looked at Ding Jiayi with a cold look.
When Qiao Dongliang found out that Ding Jiayi asked Mr. Li to help get Qiao Zijin into the affiliated high school, he was very angry, but he did not argue with Ding Jiayi because it was useless because Qiao Zijin had already gone to the affiliated high school and was making rapid progress.
No matter how much they argued about this matter, there would be no conclusion. Qiao Dongliang could only accept it and pretend he knew nothing.
"What is Nan Nan doing at Grandpa Li's house?" Qiao Zijin was stunned.
"Reviewing homework for Baoguo."
"What, Nan Nan is reviewing homework for Zhu Baoguo?" Qiao Zijin raised her voice, like a duck being strangled by the neck, her voice was both harsh and noisy: "Dad, you are crazy, Nan Nan is already in junior high school, she will have to take the high school entrance examination next year. Her own academic performance has declined, and she doesn't even have time to review. You let Nan Nan review for Zhu Baoguo, will Nan Nan still take the high school entrance examination next year?"
Qiao Nan, who was eating, paused for a moment, his eyes flashed, and he looked at Qiao Zijin with some surprise.
But afterwards, Qiao Nan returned to normal.
Asking her to review Zhu Baoguo's homework would indeed lead to such dangers and accidents.
However, Qiao Zijin definitely didn't say this because she cared about her. She was probably worried that her relationship with Zhu Baoguo would improve. She would have the care of the Li and Zhu families and a bright future. She would no longer be enslaved by herself, so Qiao Zijin was anxious.
As expected, they were born from the same mother and have been sisters for two lifetimes. This is what Qiao Zijin thought.
If it weren't for the relationship between the Zhu and Li families, why would Qiao Zijin be willing to take the initiative to ask to give Zhu Baoguo extra lessons when Mr. Li came to the Qiao family last time.
However, it had been more than half a month since this incident happened, and Qiao Zijin thought it had come to an end. Little did she expect that not only had this incident not happened, but it had already begun.
Ding Jiayi, who was sitting next to Qiao Zijin, kicked Qiao Zijin and said, "Qiao Nan and your father know the situation well. Why are you in such a hurry?"
Is this child stupid? Whether he does well in the exam is Qiao Nan's business.
Anyway, Qiao Nan had already promised that if she didn't do well in the exam, she would definitely not ask her family to give her 5,000 yuan to go to Zheng
If Qiao Nan really did poorly on the exam, she didn't believe that Qiao Nan would have the nerve to continue studying in high school and college. Wasn't Zhu Baoguo's situation exactly what she wanted?
Is Zijin stupid?
"Nannan, can you handle it?" Qiao Dongliang was also stunned for a moment, because he had never thought of this level.
But now that I think about it, Qiao Dongliang was just asking Qiao Nan if she could handle it, and it didn't seem like he wanted a "no" answer.
