Chapter 42
After Qiao Zhen Min expressed his opinion, Qiao Xiu Zhi glanced at everyone again: "Who else wants to speak?"
Qiao Zhen Jun saw that his mom never looked at him and could only uttered: "Mom, I know you dote Da Qiao, but this matter can't..."
But before he could finish speaking, he was coldly interrupted by Qiao Xiu Zhi: "I know what you want to say? You want to say that Da Qiao is still young and don't need to buy her a house, right?"
Under his mom's pressuring gaze, Qiao Zhen Jun suddenly felt that his head was thousand gold heavy. He couldn't continue for a long time.
When his mom announced this decision just now, he saw everyone's expressions.
He was very happy that his parents love Da Qiao, but if this matter wasn't handled properly, it will inevitably lead to family conflicts. Da Qiao may get rejected by his family!
He really didn't want to see this happen.
Qiao Xiu Zhi stated: "I said it just now. The century old Ganoderma lucidum was found by Da Qiao. You guys coincidentally rubbed in some benefits. She deserves this house. Even when you are her dad, you have no right to refuse for her. Also, you don't have the ability to buy it for her. You got the shame to push out the benefits that you have obtained. You are really her dad!"
Qiao Zhen Jun: ...
You are also a mom!
Qiao Zhen Jun blushed like a cooked shrimp. At the same time, he felt very guilty.
That's right. He had no ability to give his daughter a good life. Now he want to refuse her chance of living a good life. Was he really her dad?
Qiao Zhen Jun fell into a deep doubt about himself.
"Next!" Qiao Xiu Zhi domineeringly called as she scanned the crowd.
The flesh on Wan Chun Ju's face trembled.
If she hadn't been sitting on a chair, she would have fallen to the ground with her weak legs.
She was scared to death. She frantically winked at her man, but her man couldn't understand it!
Simply driving her mad!
The only thing left to do now was to brave it!
Otherwise, if she pass this village, she would miss the store. If she don't speak out now, she will never have the opportunity to talk about it in the future!
"Mom..." This 'Mom' trembled so much that everyone could hear it.
"Mom, I don't want to oppose you buying a house for Da Qiao. However, it wasn't just Da Qiao who went. Dong He and Dong Ying were there too."
Her eyes suddenly fell on Qiao Hong Xia: "That's right. Hong Xia's Little Yi Ming also went. I heard that he entered that forest in order to chase a butterfly. Everyone benefited due to him, no?"
Wan Chun Ju knew that it was impossible to stop her mother-in-law from buying a house for Da Qiao, so she wanted to muddy the water now.
If she was to be rewarded, then everyone should be rewarded together. Can't favor one over the other!
Qiao Hong Xia glanced at her and chilly spoke: "Mom, Little Yi Ming doesn't understand anything. Don't need to give him anything! Besides, he was chasing the butterfly to give his Elder Sister Nian Nian. So I agree with Mom's words. Everyone benefited due to Da Qiao!"
Anyone who wasn't stupid can see Wan Chun Ju's little thoughts.
She won't "team up" with her!
She still remembered the despair when the doctor deemed Little Yi Ming unsavable. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the sky was torn apart. But after Da Qiao arrived, the child miraculously recovered.
She didn't know if Da Qiao played any role in it. In short, she believed that Da Qiao brought good luck to Little Yi Ming!
If she had the ability, she would be happy to let buy a house for Da Qiao herself!
Hearing Qiao Hong Xxia's words, Wan Chun Ju almost vomited blood!
What the hell was going on with Qiao Family. Each and every one acted like money was dung. Making her look so vulgar!
So vexing!
After some struggle, she finally turned to little bum Chen Qiao Qiao: "Fifth Sister-in-law, don't you want to say a few words?"
"Eldest Sister-in-law, I don't have any objection. I will listen to Mom."
Chen Qiao Qiao felt uncomfortable when she heard that her mother-in-law say she was going to buy a house for Da Qiao.
But then Mother-in-law was willing to buy a house in the town in order to let her man become a permanent employee. What else could she complain about?
She was more anxious about asking her man why he doesn't want to work in the supply and demand cooperative. Why didn't he tell her about it last night?
Wan Chun Ju was so angry that a mouthful of blood was stuck in her chest: "..."
Qiao Xiu Zhi looked at Wan Chun Ju: "You said that Dong He and Dong Ying also went to the forest that day. I asked them both, and they said that they had looked around. They didn't find notice any century-old Ganoderma lucidum. If it wasn't for Da Qiao, this Ganoderma lucidum will never reach our Qiao Family's. So what are you dissatisfied with now?"
Wan Chun Ju: …
She had a lot of dissatisfaction, but was what she say effective?
"Since everyone has no objection, then this matter is decided." Qiao Xiu Zhi slammed the hammer, "People's hearts are originally biased. I dare not say that I'm absolutely fair. But as long as you don't do Qiao Family wrong, I will absolutely not treat anyone badly!"
Was there absolute fair in this world?
No!
So Qiao Xiu Zhi never said that she was a fair person. She would never be as biased as Fang Xiao Juan and let herself be fooled.
Qiao Zhen Guo smiled naively: "Mom, whatever you say is whatever goes. We'll all listen to you."
The rest also expressed they had no objection.
Neither daughter-in-law uttered a sound. Still, everyone could tell that Wan Chun Ju was very displeased.
Of course, this didn't include Qiao Zhen Guo.
Qiao Zhen Guo went out humming a tune: "Bright sky above the liberated zone, the people there love it..."
Wan Chun Ju: "..."
They were already at a disadvantage and he had the mood to sing. Sing what bloody songs!
Once back in the room, Wan Chun Ju exploded: "Zhen Guo, I know you listen to your mom. But can't you think about your wife and children for once?"
Qiao Zhen Guo was befuddled again: "Wife, what's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong with me!" Wan Chun Ju picked up the pillow and slammed it on the bed, "Mom wants to buy a house for Da Qiao in the town. While An Ping, Qiao Family's only grandson doesn't even get a fart? This is fair?"
Qiao Zhen Guo nodded: "It's fair. Ganoderma lucidum wasn't dug by An Ping!"
Wan Chun Ju almost didn't couldn't catch her breath. She was pissed off to death: "Okay. An Ping didn't go. What about Dong Ying and Dong He? Even if the two sisters didn't find Ganoderma lucidum, they had dug it out. There's still effort, even if there's no credit. Now they got nothing. Mom said that she isn't biased. Her heart is obviously leaned all the way to the armpit!"
Qiao Zhen Guo: "Wife, Mom said just now that she is an biased person."
Wan Chun Ju: "..."
Infuriating!
She doubted whether she would be able to live until her grandson was born if she kept getting angered!
Taking a deep breath, she said what she wanted to say the most in her heart: "Zhen Guo, Wang Family is so wealthy and had already split up. Wouldn't it be better if we split up as well?"
Qiao Zhen Guo finally properly looked at his wife: "Wife, you want to split off?"
Wan Chun Ju felt guilty under his stare. Still, she bravely nodded: "I want! Currently, the family living together like this is too noisy. Besides, the trees split off branches when big. Wouldn't it be better for everyone to live apart earlier?"
Currently Qiao Family was simply messed up!
Old Second Qiao had obviously separated out, but now he ate three meals a day at Qiao's old house. This was no different from not being separated out!
The key point was that he was paralyzed. Most likely this burden will fall on their first branch in the future!
Qiao Hong Xia, a divorced daughter, was also at home every day. So annoying!
It was humiliating enough to have one divorced person in the family. Now there were two in Qiao family!
Every time she went out, she had to be asked about the siblings' divorce. Simply embarrassing to death!
Also, if there was no separation, the things in in-law's hands will be poached by Da Qiao sooner or later!
She was so cunning at a young age. Why didn't she see it before?
Qiao Zhen Guo sighed and said, "Alright. Since you want to go out, I'll go tell Mom."
The surprise came too quickly like a tornado.
Wan Chun Ju couldn't believe her ears!
Her man was finally enlightened!
Aiya, she finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel.
Wan Chun Ju suddenly felt her nose sour a little.
Qiao Zhen Guo walked out while muttering: "I originally wanted to wait for An Ping to marry his wife, and then separate you out alone. I didn't expect you to have awareness. Now you want to separate out alone."
Wan Chun Ju: "..."
It can't be that she said so much in vain?
No, it wasn't in vain. It gave her a man an excuse to separate her out like old woman Yao!
Pissing her off!
"Qiao Zhen Guo, come back here. If you dare to tell your mother today, I... I will die for you to see!"
Wan Chun Ju couldn't take it anymore. She laid down on the bed and started sobbing.
Qiao Zhen Guo obediently came back: "Wife, I lied to you just now. I won't tell my mother."
Wan Chun Ju stopped crying, sat up and looked at him with red eyes: "You...you really don't plan to go?"
Why was this person so unfamiliar?
He knew to use a devious and cunning way to make her afraid first. This was not like her man!
Qiao Zhen Guo smiled and responded: "That's right. If I want to bring it up, have to wait until you given birth to the baby first. If you want to separate out alone, you can't take the child away."
Wan Chun Ju: "..."
Familiar taste, familiar recipe.
He's still the man who was infuriating as hell!
"Qiao Zhen Guo, I don't want to talk to you. Get out now!"
...
Trouble was also brewing in Fang's house at the moment.
"Ouch, my poor daughter, why did you die? Why are you so cruel? To let me, a white-haired mother, send a black-haired person!"
"My God, my daughter was a flower when she married into Fang's house. Now she was destroyed to such a degree. Now she's not even 30 years old and she's dead. My daughter, you died so wrongly! "
Old Madam Cai was sitting at the door of Fang's courtyard, clapping her thighs as she wailed. Her voice was so loud that she could flip off the ceiling!
"Who are these people? Are they Fan Fu Gui's wife's maternal family?"
"It is her maternal family. Their daughter was tortured to death. What would it look like if they didn't come? The one sitting on the ground crying is Fang Fu Gui's mother-in-law!"
"That's right! If my daughter is abused like this, I'll kill their whole family! If it's up to me, don't waste words if you can fight. Hurry up and fight!"
"Che, do you really think Cai Family is here to fight justice for their daughter? So naive! They just want to take the opportunity to make a fortune from Fang Family!"
If someone really cared about their daughter, would they marry their daughter to Fang Family?
It was heard that Fang Fu Gui's wife sobbingly refused to marry. However, Fang Family gave a high wedding gift and her family forced her to marry.
Later, she experienced domestic violence a few times and ran back to her maternal home. Her maternal family never supported her. Instead, they told her to bear with it. Didn't all women live like this?
So what maternal family? Just a bunch of beasts!
When everyone heard this, they didn't have any good attitude toward Cai Family.
Cai Family didn't care. They made up their minds today that Fang Family must compensate money, otherwise they won't leave!
Old woman Fang leaned on crutches and walked in front of old Madam Cai. She spat in her face with a 'pah': "Married a short-lived ghost with a two-hundred-yuan wedding gift. You still have the face to come? You should smirk that we didn't ask you for the wedding gift back!"
Old Madam Cai wiped her face with her hands, jumped up, and spat out a mouthful of saliva on old woman Fang's face, "Old witch, no one was willing to marry your son within a radius of ten miles. My daughter's bum is excellent. What's wrong with asking for two hundred? If we knew earlier that you treat her like this, we shouldn't have asked for so little in the first place!"
Old woman Fang spat back: "I tell you, our in-law family is the production leader. Wang Family's old Third is a high-ranking official in the army. You'd better scram now, or I'll let you look good!"
Old Madam Cai spat back and uttered, "Who are you scaring? As if Wang Family would like your broken shoe daughter?"
When the two argued, they spat at each other's face. At first, the two of them would wipe it with their hands. Later, they didn't bother to wipe it at all.
Everyone: "..."
Everyone was so disgusted that they wanted to vomit out the lunch they ate!
Someone went to fetch the production team leader, but the production team leader said that this was Fang Family's family matter.
Everyone knew that Wang Shui Sheng didn't want to be involved with Fang Family.
Old woman Fang had kept taking Wang Family out to threaten Cai Family, but now her face was slapped swollen!
"Hahaha, you keep talking about your in-laws. Why won't your in-laws come to help you?" Old Madam Cai vividly interpreted the words 'smug villain'.
Think they got no brain? They had already figured out the situation before they came!
Surprisingly at the end of the fight, it was Xiao Qiao who suffered!
Cai Family asked for money, but Fang Family refused to give it. Cai Family's sons sent all their four family's elderly to live in Fang Family.
Each day Fang Family doesn't give money, the four elderly won't leave for a day!
No matter how arrogant Fang Fu Gui was, he didn't dare to kill someone. Otherwise he will be shot.
Old woman Fang was so angry that her chest hurt. But she didn't want to bow her head, so she sent her two precious grandson to Fang Xiao Juan and asked her to take care of them.
Fang Xiao Juan wanted to nurture her pregnancy. It was Xiao Qiao who did the work at home. Now there were two more people.
Xiao Qiao exploded on the spot!
...
Xiao Qiao was so mad that she vomited blood. However, Da Qiao was extremely delighted. Because she found out that she GREW TALLER!
The weather was getting warmer day by day. The new clothes her grandmother wanted to make for her hadn't been finished yet. So she can only pull out last year's clothes.
When she changed into last year's clothes, she realized that it was so much shorter!
She was madly overjoyed.
She had always been half a head shorter than her peers. Every New Year, everyone will laugh at her. Saying that she can wear one piece of clothes for several years without having to make new ones.
There were also some very naughty children. When they see her, they either name-call her little stutterer or dwarf melon. She felt down every time.
Now she didn't stutter. What's more, she had grown taller!
After wearing her clothes, she headed to Qiao's old house with a "thump thump thump".
Qiao Dong Ying saw her coming in wearing old clothes and exaggerated: "Qiao Family's little Cutie, why are you wear your baby clothes?"
Da Qiao raised her head, showing a sweet smile and softly replied: "Elder Sister Ying, look. The sleeves are too short!"
Qiao Dong Ying's mind turned fast and immediately understood what she wanted to say. She responded in cooperation, "Oh, that's amazing. The sleeves became so short. Little Cutie has grown taller?"
Da Qiao's face was flushed and her eyes were black and bright. She nodded with puffed out chest, "En, little Cutie has grown taller!"
Qiao Dong Ying teased: "Since you've grown up, you can't be called little Cutie."
Da Qiao thought about it for a while, pursed her red mouth, and said in a glutinous voice, "En, then I will be Big Cuite in the future!"
Qiao Dong Ying: "..."
She seem...to underestimate the thickness of this little younger cousin sister's skin.
"Pfft..."
Qiao Dong He was amused by the conversation between the two. Younger Sister Da Qiao was so adorable and cute!
She stepped forward and took Da Qiao's hand, "The new clothes aren't ready so soon. You can't wear these clothes. Come in with me. I'll find some clothes for you to wear."
"Thank you, Elder Sister Dong He. You are the best and most beautiful elder cousin sister in the world!" Da Qiao's rainbow-licking was thrown out like it was free.
Behind, Qiao Dong Ying's teeth felt sour when she heard it: "Your Elder Sister Dong He is the best and most beautiful. What about me?"
Da Qiao's eyes spun and she sweetly answered, "Elder Sister Ying is the most awesome!"
Qiao Dong Ying snorted twice. Obviously felt her rainbow-licking wasn't sincere enough.
Qiao Dong He picked out the clothes that both her and her younger sister couldn't wear and weren't too shabby. Da Qiao didn't dislike it. But rather, she was extremely happy.
She couldn't wear so many clothes. It was a sweet worry.
After playing in her Elder Cousin Sister's room for a long time, the few came out of the room. They happened to bump into her fifth uncle's family.
She saw that her Fifth Uncle was carrying a few bags and bundles, while her Fifth Aunt was standing behind him holding little Wan'er. It seem like they were going on a trip.
The few girls greeted them.
Qiao Dong Ying asked, "Fifth Uncle, are you taking little Wan'er to the provincial hospital?"
Qiao Zhen Min nodded: "We're going to the town today to stay for one night. Then we'll catch a ride to the provincial capital tomorrow. All of you listen to your grandmother at home. Don't be naughty, understand?"
"Understand." Qiao Dong Ying and Qiao Dong He replied in unison.
Qiao Dong He went up to greet little Wan'er, but the other party was the same as before. She didn't give her any response at all.
Only Da Qiao frowned tightly.
Seeing her like this, Qiao Zhen Min specially asked, "What's wrong, Da Qiao? You frown like you're an old lady."
Da Qiao pursed her lips and said, "Fifth Uncle, are you going on a trip? Can you not go?"
Qiao Zhen Min was stunned for a moment. Thinking that she was a child who was reluctant to part with her family. So he smilingly coaxed, "Fifth Uncle is taking your younger sister to see the doctor. If it goes well, we'll be back soon."
Da Qiao persisted on the same thing again: "Fifth Uncle, can you not go, okay?"
Qiao Zhen Min frowned, wondering why this child was suddenly so insensible?
At this moment, his mom came over: "Da Qiao, why did you tell your fifth uncle not to go?"
Da Qiao shook her head. Her little face flushed red.
She couldn't explain it clearly. She just didn't want Fifth Uncle and the others to leave.
Qiao Xiu Zhi looked up at her youngest son and spoke, "Old Fifth, how about going on another day."
"Mom! Little Wan'er can't be delayed. Besides, I still have things to do later and won't have time at all!"
Qiao Zhen Min knew that Da Qiao was his mom's favorite. But he never expected his mom to become so unprincipled!
Qiao Xiu Zhi remembered the weird things that happened to Da Qiao and stated with a solemn face: "Old Fifth, Mom knows that you have always been very independent. But this time, listen to Mom and go at another time!"
It wasn't that Qiao Zhen Min didn't want to listen to his mom. Just because a child's reluctance, he must disrupt his plans. He really can't understand!
Qiao Zhen Min left in the end.
Da Qiao watched her fifth uncle's family's departing back and her eyes suddenly sour. Two lines of tears fell.
Two days after Qiao Zhen Min departure, the school finally opened.
At the same time, the production team also welcomed a new batch of educated youth.
In order to befriend Qiao Family, Wang Shui Sheng asked Qiao Zhen Guo to join him to pick up the educated youth.
