Chapter 356: Obstructing Recognition (Page 1/2)
When Qiao Hongbin heard what Zhou Qingyu said, his face suddenly became extremely ugly.
This old woman is still as petty as ever. This is how I raised her to be.
If his father had not been separated from the main family and taken away from the Qiao family compound to develop in Beijing, he would not have had to marry the girl born to the Zhou family's concubine.
"Don't worry about this matter. We must recognize the daughter of the Qiao family. You don't have to give the dowry. If the third brother doesn't give it to me, I will give it."
"Give what? Your money is my money. She doesn't want to come back, and you're still begging her to come back. You're a member of the Standing Committee, don't you want to lose face? Why are you putting on airs for a little girl like her?
And Qiao Yan, I tell you, you are not allowed to go and claim her, and you are not allowed to go even if your wife is called.
We don't have any young men in the family who are in the military, and we don't need to ask Lieutenant General Huo for help. Are you still afraid of offending him?"
Qiao Yan smiled bitterly. He really didn't expect that his mother would be so disgusted with taking the child back. If he had known, he would not have told them that she didn't want to come back.
"Dad, she is Wanwan and I's first child. Li Zhen has suffered so much in the Lin family for so many years..."
Before Qiao Yan finished speaking, Zhou Qingyu interrupted him again, "What hardship? Didn't you say that she was marrying General Huo's eldest grandson?
She gave birth to two sons and still had to hire someone to help take care of the children. What kind of hard life is this? She is not allowed to work in the fields, and she is not allowed to work in the fields.
She lives a carefree life in the Huo family. What else do you want her to do?
If you want to go see her, you can, but don't bring her home. I don't want to see her crying in front of me."
Qiao Yan knew that her mother liked to hear nice words and be coaxed, which was why she liked Tiantian but not Shuhua.
What should they do? They already owed their daughter and wanted to compensate her, but she was angry and refused to come back, and her mother even tried to stop her from coming back.
Qiao Yan looked at Qiao Hongbin pleadingly and said, "Dad, let's take Xiaoman back. We'll explain this to Tiantian and stop her from making a fuss. My eldest brother and second brother both have four children, and Wanwan and I also have four children."
Qiao Hongbin glanced at Qiao Yan and nodded, "Well, this matter cannot be concealed. You have to comfort Tiantian and recognize the child.
But don't offend Lieutenant General Huo over this matter. He has a certain status in the army and can speak with the senior commanders."
When Mrs. Qiao heard this, she said angrily, "Humph, what's so great about a lieutenant general?"
Qiao Hongbin glared at Old Mrs. Qiao and said, "Old woman, put away your temper. If you don't want our Qiao family to develop well, then keep making trouble.
Everything is complementary. One more friend means one more way forward. Besides, the Huo family is not bad. "
Qiao Yan listened to his father's words and understood the truth. Although he was a little dissatisfied with his mother, he didn't say much.
Qiao Hongbin continued, "Also, remember this: don't mess with anyone from the Huo family. Especially Huo Qingci, that kid is already an attending physician at such a young age."
Old Mrs. Qiao curled her lips and said, "Isn't he just a military doctor? Is there any need to be so afraid of him?"
Qiao Yan sighed and said, "Mom, birth, aging, sickness and death are normal. Everyone gets sick sometimes. He is a skilled doctor, so it's better not to offend him."
Mrs. Qiao said disapprovingly, "So what if he's a skilled doctor? I don't have a heart disease."
Qiao Hongbin shook his head helplessly and said, "Zhou Qingyu, don't act on impulse. It's right to listen to your son. Our Qiao family is in politics and the Huo family is in the military. A good relationship between our two families will benefit our development."
Qiao Yan quickly agreed, "Yes, Mom, even if Xiao Man comes back, she won't live at home every day and won't bother you."
Seeing that both the father and son said this, Mrs. Qiao had to put aside her dissatisfaction temporarily.
But she still felt that Lin Man, that dead girl, was born rebellious. Her Qiao family was so prestigious, yet she was so arrogant and refused to acknowledge them. She would wait until she returned to the Qiao family to teach her the rules.
Qiao Yan looked at his mother and knew that she was still dissatisfied. But he had no choice but to hope that she would not cause any more trouble.
After discussing with his parents, Qiao Yan took time out from get off work the next day to go to the Wang family compound to find Qiao Sitian and tell her about her life story.

Qiao Sitian was terrified. She said, "Dad, you lied to me, didn't you? How could I not be your child?"
"Tiantian, your aunt Li Zhen deliberately took you and that child away by mistake. Your mother's name is Ye Yunchu, and she is divorced from your father, Lin Shaoqian..."
Qiao Yan didn't have the heart to tell Qiao Sitian that she was Ye Yunchu's bastard, so he just said that she was the child of researcher Lin Shaoqian.
"Dad, you told me all this today, so you don't want me anymore?"
"Silly child, your mother and I raised you, how could we possibly abandon you? I'm just discussing with you about recognizing that child. Even though you were both born on the same day, how about she become the older sister and you become the younger one?"
Qiao Sitian was confused and didn't know what to do. If she was not a child of the Qiao family, Wang Xingyu would definitely divorce her.
So she couldn't leave the Qiao family, nor could she let that woman return to the Qiao family. She had to find a way to stop that woman from recognizing her relatives.
After much thought, Qiao Sitian decided to go to the Military District Middle School to meet the woman named Lin Man first.
She did not tell Wang Xingyu about this, but sent the child back to her parents' home and secretly took a bus to the school where Lin Man worked.
She told the school leaders that she was Wang Xingyu's daughter-in-law and had something to consult Lin Man in private. The school leaders then reserved an office for her and invited Lin Man in.
Although Lin Man didn't know Qiao Sitian, she could guess who she was by looking at her face.
Haha, she didn't go looking for trouble with the Qiao family, but Qiao Sitian came directly to their door, thinking that she was easy to bully.
Lin Man was thinking about what kind of lesson to teach Qiao Sitian when Qiao Sitian suddenly stood up from the principal's seat and looked at Lin Man with contempt.
"I heard that you are the child my parents left behind?" Qiao Sitian said.
Lin Man raised her eyebrows and curled her lips slightly: "Who are your parents?"
Qiao Sitian frowned and said unhappily, "Don't pretend with me. My dad is Qiao Yan. Don't say you don't know him."
Lin Man smiled slightly and responded in a relaxed tone: "Oh, so it's him, I do know."
A hint of pride flashed in Qiao Sitian's eyes, and she continued, "Humph, even if you are their biological daughter, so what? I am their precious daughter, and at home my brother has to listen to me."
Lin Man smiled, a confident look on her face: "So what?"
Qiao Sitian's eyes widened, her tone full of threats: "You will only embarrass yourself if you go back. The Qiao family cannot accept an outsider. My grandmother said that she only recognizes me as her good granddaughter."
Lin Man raised the corner of her mouth and looked at Qiao Sitian with disdain: "I am not interested in your so-called Qiao family, and I have no intention of going back."
Qiao Sitian sneered, "Really? That would be great, so I don't end up humiliating myself later."
Lin Man shrugged and said calmly, "Don't worry, I won't make myself look bad."
Qiao Sitian snorted and sat back in the principal's seat.
She was secretly proud of herself, thinking that this would scare Lin Man and prevent her from having any ideas about the Qiao family again.
However, she didn't know that Lin Man didn't take the Qiao family seriously at all.
Lin Man stood there quietly, laughing inwardly. She didn't care about the Qiao family's attitude or opinion, and she wouldn't change her mind because of Qiao Sitian's words.
So what if the Qiao family is powerful? She and her family don't need to rely on anyone.
Song Jingjing heard that Qiao Sitian had given birth to two daughters in the Wang family and was now anxious to have a son. Since she dared to make trouble in front of her, she might as well teach her a lesson.
Lin Man secretly induced the birth of a psychedelic flower, and while Qiao Sitian was in a daze, she put a sterilizing drug into her mouth.
Dream on about having a son. You will never have a child in this life. Since you dare to make trouble in front of her, you should be punished by being infertile!
Since Qiao Sitian didn't want her to go back to the Qiao family and come here to cause trouble for her, she also asked someone to send a letter to Ye Yunchu and her family, asking them to go to the Wang family to make trouble and cause trouble for her.
Song Jingjing had told her the locations of the Wang and Qiao families' houses, so she was just waiting for the two families to start a fight.
