When the book was snatched away by Qiao Dongliang, Qiao Zijin realized that someone had entered his room.
Qiao Zijin was embarrassed for a while and said to Ding Jiayi: "Mom, why didn't you knock on the door when you entered my room?"
"What kind of messy book are you reading!" It was also Qiao Zijin who saw the key and more "plot" content. Qiao Dongliang took two glances and became furious: "You just sit in the room and read this kind of book to review. Knowledge?"
Saying that, without giving Qiao Zijin time to react, Qiao Dongliang raised his hands and tore up the books: "If you don't let Nannan study, you can give Zijin the spare money to buy this. Old Ding, let me ask you, my family Do you have money or not?”
Qiao Dongliang saw that the book was not cheap, and the eldest daughter's name was written on the book. There was no doubt that the book must belong to the eldest daughter.
"I..." Ding Jiayi was dumbfounded. Lao Qiao liked that her daughter could read and write, so that she could have a great future and make up for his regret of being discharged from the army. This was the first time she saw Lao Qiao tearing up her daughter's books.
"I didn't." Ding Jiayi quickly explained: "I didn't give Zijin any money, and I didn't hear that Zijin bought any books recently."
Ding Jiayi felt that she had been wronged to death. In order to provide money for Zijin's relationship, she had to finance all the family's expenses and even restrained herself from eating meat every day.
How could she give Zijin spare money to buy such a book
Ding Jiayi didn't know what was written in that novel, but when she saw Qiao Dongliang just glanced at the content in the book, she was so angry that she tore the book apart. She had a gut feeling that the content in the book was probably not very good.
Otherwise, Qiao Dongliang would not have reacted this way.
Qiao Nan curiously picked up the book on the ground and turned to the last page.
Having been sisters with Qiao Zijin for two lifetimes, how could she not know what little habits Qiao Zijin had.
Sure enough, when Qiao Nan turned to the last page of the book, she found a row of times written down. The time showed that it was more than half a year ago, which should be around the time of the New Year last year.
Looking at the paper, it's not new anymore. This shows that Qiao Zijin didn't keep it all the time after buying the book half a year ago. He had finished reading it long ago.
Calculating the time, Qiao Nan couldn't help but get angry. Six months ago was the most critical half year for Qiao Zijin's high school entrance examination. Qiao Zijin had money in hand and didn't buy review materials. He actually bought this kind of mistress and finished reading it. No wonder Qiao Zijin Jin's grades have never been very good, and he was barely above the high school mark after the high school entrance examination.
Qiao Dongliang was originally from the army and had better insight than ordinary people.
He just saw Qiao Nan's flipping movements. The information he needed to master didn't require Qiao Nan to say a word. Qiao Dongliang could understand it at a glance.
Thinking that his eldest daughter still had time to read this kind of leisurely book during the critical high school entrance exam, and then thinking about her eldest daughter's high school entrance exam results, Qiao Dongliang was extremely disappointed.
After he was discharged from the army, he hoped that his two daughters could make a difference, so he sent them to study.
If the eldest daughter was stupid, this result was obtained by her best efforts. Even if she really failed in the exam, he would not even criticize her for two months.
But now Qiao Dongliang knows that it is not the case. The eldest daughter is not focused on studying at all.
"No wonder your grades have been bad, why are you focusing on this?" Qiao Dongliang was puzzled. How old is the eldest daughter? She can already read such love books, and she can read them all. Cried.
I have wanted to raise my daughter for seventeen years. The eldest daughter has never spared an eye for me because of anything. Now that she has dedicated all her life to a book, Qiao Dongliang feels very depressed.
Unable to lose his temper with his eldest daughter, Qiao Dongliang yelled at Ding Jiayi: "She is about to take the high school entrance examination, and she is still reading such a book that is against moral standards. She can only get good grades in the exam! Zi Jin is not thinking about it. She is good at studying, but you insist on letting her study. Nan Nan has been doing so well, but you insist on making trouble and not letting Nan Nan study. What do you mean?!"
With that said, Qiao Dongliang grabbed the book directly from Qiao Nan's hand and smashed it into Ding Jiayi's face.
Being hit in the face, although it didn't hurt, it was ugly. Ding Jiayi was humiliated, but she couldn't refute a word at this time: "Zijin, why did you..."
Why did you let go at such a critical time!
Ding Jiayi really didn't expect that in such an important six months, her eldest daughter would not only not review properly, but also read novels.
Ding Jiayi knew that when Qiao Nan wanted to read at home, she would not give Qiao Nan the chance. She would always instruct Qiao Nan to do this and that, and clean the house.
Qiao Zijin's ears were still buzzing, and he was completely stunned, or rather frightened.
When Qiao Zijin was studying, no one in the family would disturb Qiao Zijin.
Especially today, Qiao Zijin specifically told Ding Jiayi that she was going to read a book. According to her previous habits, Ding Jiayi would not let anyone disturb her or enter her room.
It was because Ding Jiayi was watching that Qiao Zijin felt so relieved.
The plot reached its climax. Qiao Zijin was immersed in the novel. He was crying uncontrollably because the hero and heroine were separated by his original wife. Then suddenly three more people appeared in the room.
Qiao Zijin himself said that the content of this book has nothing to do with junior high school study.
"No, no, dad, you misunderstood, this book... I, I only read it after taking the exam, so, I haven't..."
Qiao Zijin stuttered for a long time and could not say a complete sentence, but everyone understood her sophistry.
Ding Jiayi reacted and quickly protected Qiao Zijin: "Old Qiao, you heard it, Zijin bought this book early, but he just read it. The matter of the high school entrance examination has nothing to do with this book. Zijin is so sensible, how could it be possible? Will do this kind of thing."
"I haven't read it. Does this look like a new book that has not been opened?"
“Dad, I haven’t watched it, but I lent it to other classmates to watch!”
"Who did you lend it to?"
"Lent it to Wang Hua from the next class." However, Wang Hua moved away four months ago and didn't even come back to take the high school entrance exam. Her father would definitely not be able to find anyone.
"He's the one who moved. Sister, when did you get on such good terms with the person in the class next to you?" Qiao Nan smiled. Qiao Zijin could deceive her mother, but she was too young to deceive her father.
This was obviously because someone else had moved, and no one was here anymore. Even if Dad wanted to ask, there would be no proof.
"Shut up!" Ding Jiayi yelled at Qiao Nan: "It's already this time and you are adding fuel to the fire. Qiao Nan, what are you thinking about? Do you know how to speak? If you can't speak, don't speak!"
Seeing Qiao Dongliang's face getting darker and darker, Ding Jiayi was also frightened.
"Dad, it's time to sign up the day after tomorrow. My tuition?" Qiao Nan changed the topic. Registration is about to happen. Will she be able to get her tuition? "Dad, I have run out of pens and notebooks."
Qiao Dongliang let out a long breath: "Give Nan Nan twenty yuan."
