Chapter 219 Taking Responsibility



Xiao Hei and Xiao Huang were standing by the brazier with their mouths drooling.

"It's the smell of barbecue." Jiang Junyun said.

Then a group of little guys started drooling as they looked at the meat in the brazier.

But they all knew that the meat was not edible.

This is the poisoned meat that two bad guys outside the house wanted to poison Xiao Hei and Xiao Huang.

This meat cannot be eaten, but they have meat at home.

Jiang Jintang immediately ran to find Jiang Yunchen: "Daddy, Daddy, I want to eat barbecue."

Jiang Yunchen was thinking about his next move when he heard this. Before he could say anything, Qiao Qiping beside him said with a smile, "Tangtang wants to eat barbecue, so let's arrange it tonight."

Qiao Xiazhi: "Tomorrow night, Dongzhi and the others will be back tomorrow."

Qiao Qiping: "It's okay, no need to wait for them. If it doesn't work, just grill it tomorrow night."

"If our good great-grandson wants to eat, then we must arrange it."

Hearing this, Jiang Jintang cheered happily, "Great, let's have barbecue tonight, let's have barbecue tonight. Grandpa is the best, Grandpa is the best."

As soon as she cheered, the other little ones followed suit.

"We're having a barbecue tonight. We're having a barbecue tonight."

"It would be great if there was corn. I love roasted corn. The tender corn smells so good when roasted." Jiang Jinning felt particularly greedy when she thought of the roasted corn she had eaten in Hai City before.

Jiang Junmo also said: "I think the lamb skewers are the best."

Jiang Junyun agreed: "Beef skewers are also delicious, with fat beef and cabbage, fat but not greasy. Uncle Erqiang's grilled beef skewers are my favorite."

"Mom, will Uncle Erqiang come to our house to pay New Year's greetings? Then let Uncle Erqiang barbecue for us."

Qiao Xiazhi: "Uncle Erqiang won't come until tomorrow afternoon, as agreed."

Qiao Youyou blinked her big eyes and looked at Qiao Xiazhi: "Aunt, can we make arrangements tonight?"

How could Qiao Xiazhi refuse the request of these little guys?

"Arrange, arrange, arrange. Uncle Erqiang is not here, so your aunt will bake for you. Your uncle can also do it, and your father can do it too."

When they came back from Hai City, they agreed to come to Qiao's house on the second day of the New Year and have hot pot and barbecue in the evening.

So when they came back, they brought back a lot of food.

It won’t go bad in the cold winter anyway, it’s like a natural refrigerator.

As a result, today, because of a piece of meat, these little guys are clamoring for barbecue.

Then let’s arrange it.

But we’ll have to wait until tomorrow night for hotpot.

We had lunch at Grandpa Qiao's house this afternoon, and we chatted for a long time before leaving.

After coming back, we started preparing the barbecue for the evening.

Then, while busying himself, Qiao Daguo said, "Grandpa and grandma, Xia Zhi, we had lunch at Second Grandpa's house today and we talked a lot."

"It seems that none of Second Grandpa's nephews are willing to take care of him in his old age."

"So I thought, let's discuss it. After all, in the entire family, only the second grandfather not only did not despise us for being poor relatives, but also took out money to help us. Otherwise, we..."

"Of course, we have a favor and we have a way to repay it, so we are discussing how to do it."

Qiao Xiazhi: "If we are talking about providing for the elderly, then only if they take care of you in your old age can you be called truly caring."

"But if we do this, we will have to take on more things. It's not just about providing for the elderly, so we have to think it through."

Qiao Daguo looked at Qiao Xiazhi and smiled, "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you. In fact, I do have this idea. I want to take my second grandfather to Hai City together."

"Over there, I have a companion with Grandpa and Uncle Ma."

"But I'm also worried about the gossips of those people and his nephews."

Qiao Qiping: "What are you worried about those gossipers doing? No matter how you gossip, they are still gossipers. Have they said less about us in recent years?"

"As for your second grandfather's nephews, if you have thought it through, this matter will be easy to handle. When the time comes, ask them about their wishes first. If they don't want to provide for their old age, we will do it."

"Then let the captain and a few prestigious people in the team act as witnesses and sign. There is no need to worry about them."

"I know your second grandfather well. He is kind-hearted, clear-headed, and not cunning. He is also very protective of his children. If you take him to Hai City, you don't have to worry about him getting into any trouble."

"It's just that your second grandfather is already 70 years old. He will be 70 this year. It's uncertain when he will close his eyes."

"Xia Zhi is right. Taking him to Hai City is not just a simple matter of taking care of him in his old age. We have to shoulder many responsibilities."

Qiao Erguo: "I've thought about this responsibility, and I'm willing to take it."

Qiao Qiping nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, since you have made up your mind, then do it according to your heart. Grandpa supports you."

Qiao Xiazhi: "I support you too. If anything happens, we will shoulder it together."

Qiao Qiping: "Your second grandfather will come over later in the evening. Ask him what he thinks first. If he is willing to go with us, then you can say hello to those people and find the captain to be a witness."

"Then once everything is signed in black and white and fingerprinted, there is no need to worry about them making a fuss."

Qiao Daguo nodded: "Okay, then I'll ask Second Grandpa what he thinks tonight."

After the discussion, Qiao Daguo took Qiao Qinian aside to discuss the matter in the evening.

When Qiao Qinian heard that Qiao Daguo wanted to take him to Hai City to live out his retirement, his eyes became red and his voice was choked with sobs.

"Silly children, your filial piety is appreciated by Second Grandpa. Although Second Grandpa has no children, he still has so many nephews. He won't have to worry about no one to take care of him in his old age."

"You guys, just go out and make money, don't worry about an old man like me."

"I am already 70 years old, and it is hard to tell when I will close my eyes. Not to mention the troubles caused by my old age, I am more used to staying at home."

Looking at the determined look in his second grandfather's eyes, Qiao Daguo wanted to say something else, but as soon as he opened his mouth, his second grandfather interrupted him.

"Silly boy, Grandpa knows what you are thinking. But if you do this, those people will say you are 'good people'."

"Second Grandpa knows those people. They may not say anything now, but what about after Second Grandpa is gone? Although Second Grandpa does not have a huge fortune, after I am gone, those things in the house will belong to them sooner or later."

"Then they will laugh at you and call you a 'capable person' or a 'good person' or whatever unpleasant things you want to say."

"Besides, you guys are taking care of my retirement, and it will be a benefit to those people in the future."
