Chapter 2120: Filial Piety to Us
"I don't want to think about that kind of Lao Ding's family, and I don't want to mention it again. Lao Qiao, don't force me."
Qiao Dongliang smiled lightly and said sarcastically: "Old Ding, do you think your life was more difficult when you were still at Lao Ding's house, or was Nannan's life more difficult when she was growing up in our family?"
"Of course I am suffering more. Compared with us, the children of Zijin's generation are extremely happy!" Is this even a comparison? Children of the same generation are not born later. The children really are happier. There's no comparison at all between the two, okay?
"How about you count the numbers for me? How much happier is Nannan compared to you at Lao Ding's house?"
"Everywhere is happy. We are short of food and drink for her. She has never been short of fish and meat. When I was a child, we had to have some meat at home. Either the adults would eat it, or my two younger brothers would eat it. I couldn't even touch it. She has been studying for so many years, but as for me, I have no chance to go to school!"
Qiao Dongliang looked far away: "Are you happier than you? Originally, I also thought that now the society and the country are getting better and better, so the children in the future are really happy and have better food than us. But if I remember correctly , Nannan got it a few years later than Zijin, right? Is Nannan really eating so well? You can lie to me, but don’t lie to yourself. I am a man, but I don’t understand anymore. I understand the situation. Yes, Nannan has books to study. The problem is that the country has nine years of compulsory education. Nannan has only finished the second grade of junior high school. After only eight years of study, she dropped out of school and went to work. All the money you earn is spent on your family, and you don’t spend any of it. How happy? You have to raise a younger brother in Lao Ding’s house, and Nan Nan is a younger sister in this family. How happy is that? happiness!"
Qiao Dongliang couldn't continue what he said next: "After the water has been poured and you have finished speaking, I have gone back to the room. What I regret most now is that I always taught Nannan to be filial and not to be angry or talk back to her elders. I I have taught Nan Nan so much, but why haven’t I taught Nan Nan that people’s kindness has a limit, and that while being filial, you should also be self-respecting and self-loving? If Nan Nan had you running away from Lao Ding’s house to marry me. With courage, how many more good lives can Nan Nan live?"
Chong Ding Jiayi is such a thoughtful person. The Ding family has made many mistakes, and Ding Jiayi should not be wrong at all.
After Qiao Dongliang returned to the room, Ding Jiayi couldn't recover for a long time. When she found out that she was alone in the living room again, she was extremely upset. What Lao Qiao meant by that was to compare Qiao Nan with her. Lao Qiao felt that Qiao Nan had a harder time than she did when she was a child, and she was worse than her mother?
Fart, 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 happened to Qiao Nan who didn't finish nine years of compulsory education? She didn't even go to school for a day, so she could only learn from her brother. She is obviously much better than her mother, but Qiao Nan is just happier than she was when she was a child!
Ding Jiayi was relieved,
I feel that there are some things that no matter how much I say, they are all in vain. A hundred good words are not as good as one truth. When she gave 200,000 yuan to Lao Qiao, she didn't believe it. Lao Qiao still had the same attitude towards her.
Is this still the attitude? Facts have proved that with these two hundred thousand, Qiao Dongliang has no intention of changing his attitude towards Ding Jiayi.
With a more ambitious goal waiting for him, Qiao Zijin could accomplish the two hundred thousand quickly and well. Within two hours, Qiao Zijin handed the bank card containing 200,000 yuan into Ding Jiayi's hand. Ding Jiayi didn't even mean to cover up the bank card, but turned around and gave it to Qiao Dongliang like a treasure: "Old man. Qiao, here is the 200,000 yuan in pension money that Zijin gave us. From now on, you can keep this money and take care of it. "
Seeing the 200,000 yuan, and it was for himself, Qiao Dongliang only felt strange: "Where did the money come from?" It is impossible for Lao Ding to have so much money in his hands.
"Zi Jin is filial to us." Of course Ding Jiayi would not say that she took the money from Qiao Zijin. From the bottom of her heart, Qiao Zijin might not be happy or willing. I have already got the money, so naturally I chose the right words to say: "Old Qiao, you will be in charge of our family's money from now on, I have no objection. I was in charge of it before, but you will be in charge of it from now on."
Ding Jiayi still remembers how Qiao Dongliang quarreled with her that day. Now that Qiao Dongliang starts to care about these things, then she will be the head of one person and half of the family in the past, and let Qiao Dongliang be the head of the family in the future. She has no objection to this. Why should such a trivial matter between husband and wife lead to such a serious matter as divorce?
Looking at the bank card in Ding Jiayi's hand, Qiao Dongliang became angry. He couldn't decide whether he should accept this card. After hesitating for about half a minute, Qiao Dongliang took it. Seeing that Qiao Dongliang was willing to accept the money, Ding Jiayi was happy: "Old Qiao, if you are not angry with me anymore, we have reconciled, can I move back in? You don't know, that room is very small, and the weather was It was so hot that I thought I wouldn’t be able to survive it.”
How Ding Jiayi survived in that room for seven, eight, nine and three months, Ding Jiayi didn't want to think about it. Thanks to Qiao Zijin's squeamishness, she was used to the air conditioner when she was at Chen's house, so she had long asked her parents-in-law's family to install air conditioners as well. It can be said that Ding Jiayi fell asleep in the living room in 7, 8, 9 and 3 months, and she almost never went back to her room.
Because as soon as she returned to that depressing little room, Ding Jiayi had the feeling that she would faint if she stayed there for just one more minute. That room, especially in the summer, is really not for people.
After living in that small room for more than half a year, Ding Jiayi especially missed the big room 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 their room.
Ding Jiayi had no idea that being mean was the worst thing in the world. You won't die if you don't do it. Sometimes, this is the case.
Even if he accepted the 200,000 yuan, it would be impossible for Qiao Dongliang to completely forgive Ding Jiayi for her failed education of Qiao Zijin and Qiao Nan. After hearing what Ding Jiayi said, Qiao Dongliang looked at Ding Jiayi with colder eyes: "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 since she was a child until she moved out. Didn't you always say 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 account.
