The next day, Zhai Sheng frowned when he saw Qiao Nan coming again: "I didn't let you have a good rest at home yesterday, why are you here again?"
"I, I, I'm fine." Qiao Nan tiptoed to the ground, glancing at her chair from the corner of her eyes from time to time.
Her pants were in a mess yesterday, and on this chair...
Seeing that the chair seemed to be clean, Qiao Nan secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Zhai, don't worry about me. I'm fine. Maybe it's because I've taken better care of my body this year. Brother Zhai, You are so considerate, Sister Zhai is so happy."
Brother Zhai knows so much, it must be to take care of his sister.
She didn't know where she heard it before, that a brother with a younger sister is the gentlest brother in the world, but a sister with a younger brother is definitely the most violent sister in the world.
Sister Zhai is so happy to have a warm-hearted younger brother like Brother Zhai.
"..." Zhai Sheng pursed his lips, then pulled out the chair next to him: "If you really have nothing to do, just sit down and read a book, don't waste time."
Qiao Nan's face was flushed, and she was pretending that her health was really fine. Of course Zhai Sheng would see it.
After making sure that there was no problem with Qiao Nan, Zhai Sheng would certainly not insist on driving Qiao Nan away.
Qiao Nan, who had just vowed that she was fine, felt her legs become weak when she looked at the chair.
She came to Zhai's house early in the morning today, but she really didn't come to read a book. She was really worried that her aunt had left it on the chair yesterday, and it would be embarrassing for others to see, so she came over early this morning, thinking about what might happen. If it got really dirty, she would wipe it clean secretly.
After a few days, she would come to Zhai's house and read a book when it became less awkward.
But she never thought that Brother Zhai would come so early.
"What are you doing standing still? Sit down." Seeing Qiao Nan motionless, Zhai Sheng frowned and scolded her.
"Oh!" After being called by Zhai Sheng, Qiao Nan sat down next to Zhai Sheng in a daze, maintaining the same posture as yesterday.
Seeing the two chairs so close to each other, Qiao Nan's eyes flashed with confusion.
If she hadn't known that Brother Zhai was an extremely serious person, if she had been someone else, she would have definitely said that he was deliberately taking advantage of her and acting like a gangster. She had never heard of men and women sitting in different seats at the age of seven, and the two chairs were so close together. What to do.
But the person Qiao Nan was facing now was Zhai Sheng, so she really had no idea at all.
"Tonight is New Year's Eve, let me say a few words." The New Year's Eve has arrived in the blink of an eye. That night, the Qiao family prepared a sumptuous dinner, and Qiao Dongliang's face was even brighter: "Our family..."
When he thought about money, Qiao Dongliang's expression changed slightly: "Although I don't have much money anymore, as long as our family of four is healthy and free from illness and disaster, no amount of wealth can buy it back. So I I wish you all better health in the coming year, and I wish Zijin and Nannan better and better academic performance!"
Now not only Qiao Nan's grades are good, but also Qiao Zijin's grades have become stable, ranking around seventh or eighth in the class.
It would be best if Qiao Zijin's grades could get better and better. Even if he couldn't, as long as Qiao Zijin could maintain this grade, Qiao Dongliang would be very satisfied.
Although he has no son, his two daughters are so competitive and are a hundred times better than other people's sons. This makes Qiao Dongliang particularly satisfied: "Zijin, Nannan, this is a red envelope for you. Keep it for yourself and use it slowly." .”
Qiao Dongliang took out two red envelopes wrapped in red paper from his pocket and gave one to his eldest daughter and one to his youngest daughter.
"Thank you, dad!" Qiao Zijin smiled immediately after receiving the red envelope.
"Thank you, dad." Qiao Nan did not refuse and grabbed the red envelope in her hand. All the review materials she was using were bought for her by Brother Zhai.
Otherwise, based on the conditions of the Qiao family, even if she saves money on food and medical examinations, she probably won't be able to buy one of them.
"Mom, where's yours?" Qiao Zijin felt that receiving a red envelope was not enough, so he looked at Ding Jiayi with a smile: "Mom, I did so well in this exam, but you didn't even give me a reward."
"There's no reward yet." Ding Jiayi looked at Qiao Zijin angrily and amusedly: "Where did the new clothes you are wearing come from? Your mother bought them for you with the money she earned from doing handcrafts after staying up all night. .”
When she said this, Ding Jiayi's tone was full of pride.
"Mom... one code equals another, red envelope, red envelope, I want a red envelope during the Chinese New Year." Qiao Zijin put his hand in front of Ding Jiayi, insisting on a red envelope.
"Okay, can I miss you?" After teasing her eldest daughter enough, Ding Jiayi took out a red envelope similar to Qiao Dongliang's and handed it into Qiao Zijin's hand: "Don't spend it randomly."
"Thank you, Mom. You're so kind, Mom!" Qiao Zijin smiled after receiving the red envelope. Together, the money from the two red envelopes should be enough to buy the bracelet she had chosen when she was shopping for clothes last time.
There is only one set of new clothes, so she must buy something else to support the scene.
Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin were quite happy, Qiao Dongliang's face darkened, and Qiao Nan ate her meal expressionlessly.
From the beginning to the end, Ding Jiayi acted as if she only had a daughter with Qiao Zijin, as if only Qiao Zijin was her daughter and Qiao Nan was not.
Qiao Nan is used to it, but Qiao Dongliang is not.
Qiao Dongliang took a few breaths, put down his chopsticks, and turned back to the room without saying a word.
"Hey, what are you doing? You haven't finished the New Year's Eve dinner yet." Ding Jiayi didn't react at this time. She didn't know what Qiao Dongliang was going crazy about.
After Qiao Dongliang went to the room, he came out quickly with another red envelope in his hand: "Nannan, take it, you and your sister are two each, no one can be missing."
If Ding Jiayi didn't go so far, Qiao Dongliang was willing to help Ding Jiayi tell a lie, saying that Ding Jiayi had forgotten Qiao Nan's red envelope in the room.
But Ding Jiayi's behavior was already so careless that Qiao Dongliang was too lazy to cover up Ding Jiayi's ugliness.
Just like the younger daughter said, the younger daughter is no longer a three-year-old child. The younger daughter understands many things. This fig leaf is just to deceive herself.
"Thank you, dad." Qiao Nan pursed her lips and smiled, taking the red envelope from Qiao Dongliang's hand as quickly as possible.
Ding Jiayi raised her hand to snatch the red envelope from Qiao Dongliang's hand, but her hand speed was not as fast as Qiao Nan's, so she could only watch the second red envelope fall into Qiao Nan's hand: " Lao Qiao, you didn’t tell me just now, our family doesn’t have much money, so why did you give her two red envelopes? Qiao Nan, give me the one you just gave me, and mom will save it for you. No, you are young and don’t care. money."
