"Xiao Qiao, your salary is not low, and you still use Nannan to work. Nannan's grades are not bad. You let her go to work without completing nine years of compulsory education. Is your family really okay? Are you going to school? Your wife came to me that time and wanted to get her eldest daughter to study in the high school attached to her. She spent all the money at home? Xiao Qiao, a long time ago, Uncle Li taught you to be pragmatic. You will be the number one scholar in three hundred and sixty-five lines. , if you are not good at studying, you can change to something else. Is it okay to waste the family's money and sacrifice the future of another daughter to fulfill the eldest daughter? It is useless to only aim high. Only by being down-to-earth can you be steady step by step. Do everything according to your ability, now Many young people are not practical in doing things and are very impetuous. Xiao Qiao, why do you have this bad habit? Don’t forget, you are a soldier!"
After being scolded seriously by Li Laoyu, Qiao Dongliang was stunned.
He could hear and understand every word of what Mr. Li said. Why was it that when they were combined into sentences, his brain was not used enough
"Uncle Li, did you help Zijin go to the attached middle school to study?" After a long while, Qiao Dongliang asked in disbelief.
"Xiao Ding found me and asked me to help make a phone call. She will handle the rest. Xiao Qiao, you should know my temper. I never do such things. Even if it is my son, I My daughter, you grew up with them, have you ever seen me do this kind of thing for them? Xiao Qiao, do you know how disappointed Uncle Li was with you at that time? "
Uncle Li sighed.
When Ding Jiayi approached Mr. Li to resolve Qiao Zijin's matter, Mr. Li was really unhappy. Mr. Li never liked doing this kind of thing.
His own sons and daughters, he always let them move forward step by step, but he wanted to help other people's daughters go through the back door. At that time, Mr. Li wanted to reject Ding Jiayi very much.
"Old Li, I don't know." Qiao Dongliang rubbed his face vigorously. It turned out that Lao Ding had done this behind his back, and that was how Zi Jin was able to enter the affiliated high school.
"I know you definitely don't know. You have to know that you won't let Xiao Ding come." Uncle Li nodded. What kind of character does the child he watched grow up have? Would he not understand
Hearing what Uncle Li said, Qiao Dongliang felt better.
"But Xiao Qiao, Xiao Ding is your wife. You don't know anything about what she is doing or what she is thinking. Until the matter of your eldest daughter actually going to the attached middle school was finalized, you didn't even respond. This is what disappoints Uncle Li the most. Xiao Qiao, you are a soldier. Now that you are no longer in the army, have you even retired?"
Confused, so confused!
"Do you know what I was thinking at that time? I was thinking that it's a good thing that you have retired, otherwise you would have stayed in the army in this situation. It doesn't matter if you harm yourself, but what if you harm your comrades? Xiao Qiao, can you The only one who lets me down is you."
Of course, the reason why Uncle Li agreed at that time was because he guessed that Ding Jiayi must have come on her own initiative.
Ding Jiayi was the matchmaker for Qiao Dongliang by Mr. Li. Without Mr. Li, Qiao Dongliang would have married Ding Jiayi.
Ding Jiayi has a small problem. What can Uncle Li do? No matter how unhappy he is, he can only make this call.
But at that time, Uncle Li told Ding Jiayi directly that this was the first and last time.
When Qiao Dongliang heard Mr. Li's disappointment in him, he was angry and scared. He thought it was his wife who was holding him back, and it was his youngest daughter who told Mr. Li about the situation at home with a big mouth, which made him so embarrassed.
But after listening to Mr. Li's words, Qiao Dongliang realized that the real problem actually lay with him. Mr. Li was disappointed with his own performance and had nothing to do with his family.
"Xiao Qiao, tell me honestly, what you heard me say just now, did you think that Nannan told Baoguo and Baoguo told me?"
Faced with Mr. Li's questioning, Qiao Dongliang's face turned red and he couldn't say a word.
"Look at you, you still have a bit of the iron-blooded demeanor of a soldier. You just convict Nan Nan without checking or asking anything. When you were in the army, did your superiors teach you this? Everyone said that Xiao Ding was partial. , it seems to me that your heart is not going anywhere. Some things were indeed told to me by Baoguo, but there are other things that have long been spread in the compound. Xiao Qiao, should you reflect on it? one time?"
I don't know when, everyone in the compound knew that Ding Jiayi had sold Qiao Nan's books, which almost made Qiao Nan unable to read.
As for the fact that Ding Jiayi wanted her youngest daughter to study part-time work wrongly, the news was spread.
Qiao Nan brought back a pile of old books from the recycling bin that day, and many people in the compound saw her.
After seeing it with their own eyes and hearing it, the people in the compound certainly believed these words.
In other words, what happened to the Qiao family in the past two or three months has been viewed as a show by the people in the compound and used as negative teaching materials.
"Spread, has it spread?" Qiao Dongliang was completely dumbfounded. No wonder other people in the compound looked at him strangely every time he went to and from work.
"Xiao Qiao, I'm really disappointed in you." Uncle Li said, "Where did your heart go? Why did you become like a piece of wood?"
"Okay, it's getting late, you can go back. Baoguo told me that Nan Nan is a boring gourd in school, and her temper is as you said, very quiet. This weekend, you can just send Nan Nan here. As for the food, you don’t have to worry about it.”
After speaking, Mr. Li directly waved Qiao Dongliang to leave.
Now he was so upset that he didn't want to see Qiao Dongliang.
In fact, when he went to Qiao's house to thank Qiao Nan that day, Mr. Li already felt that the atmosphere in Qiao's house was strange.
Later, Zhu Baoguo told Mr. Li about the unfavorable rumors about Qiao Nan in school, and Mr. Li sent someone to investigate.
You wouldn’t know if you didn’t check, but you’d be shocked to find out that so many things happened in the Qiao family, and every one of them was scandalous.
Before school started, Qiao Nan was beaten with nosebleeds by Ding Jiayi and ran out. After being sent to the hospital by Qiao Dongliang, when the doctor diagnosed her with malnutrition, Mr. Li didn't know what to say.
Now that the country is good and society is developing, it is not the time of famine. Qiao Dongliang raised a malnourished daughter. This is really...
Mr. Li clearly remembered the day when he met Sister Qiao Nan. Qiao Zijin looked polite, brightly dressed, and had a sweet mouth. He was a man who knew how to get things done.
At first glance, this child was well protected by his parents. On the other hand, Qiao Nan had been standing behind him, silently. If he didn't mention it, Qiao Nan would be as invisible as a shadow. Mr. Li couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Of the two girls, one has a plump face and is full of energy, while the other has a pale and yellowish complexion and is silent.
