"Okay, as long as Qiao Yicheng agrees, you can do whatever you want."
Niu Ye didn't believe that Qiao Zuwang dared to approach Qiao Yicheng and make such excessive demands.
Niu Ye further believed that Qiao Zuwang was trying to be tough in front of Niu Ye, the son-in-law, and Sanli, the daughter.
Niu Ye was just giving Qiao Zuwang a little warning. The effect it could have was probably to alert the enemy and make Qiao Zuwang not to act rashly for the time being.
It can temporarily stabilize Qiao Zuwang for a few days.
If this matter is to be resolved once and for all, there is still hope for Qiao Yicheng, who has the power to intimidate Qiao Zuwang.
It didn't take long. On the first Sunday after the wedding, Qiao Yicheng notified everyone to gather at the old house of Qiao's family.
"Second brother, you didn't go to work today?"
After Niu Ye and Sanli came over on Sunday, they saw Qiao Erqiang busy in the kitchen as soon as they entered the courtyard of Qiao's house.
"Sanli, you guys are here. Isn't this the first time my eldest brother has come back since his wedding? I just asked for a day off. You go and sit in the room. The meal will be ready soon."
It was the first time Qiao Yicheng returned to his old house after his remarriage, and his younger brothers and sisters also paid great attention to it.
Qiao Erqiang took another day off in order to wait for Qiao Yicheng to come back, entertain him well, and learn about Qiao Yicheng's life after marriage.
"Okay...I'll put the things in the room and come over to help you." Sanli responded to Qiao Erqiang.
Among the Qiao children, Qiao Erqiang and Sanli are considered hardworking. One likes to cook and the other likes to do housework. Since they were teenagers, these two have done the most housework.
"Sanli, you don't need to come over, the food is almost done."
Others may say this out of politeness, but Qiao Erqiang honestly said this to Sanli, saying that he really doesn't need help.
Niuye and Sanli entered the house and saw Qiao Simei sitting on the sofa, eating melon seeds and watching TV.
From this look, you can tell that Qiao Simei has adapted well to being a housewife with children at home, and her life is quite comfortable.
Qiao Qiqi was wiping the table, chairs, and the Eight Immortals table that Qiao's family had used for decades, waiting to be used when eating.
"Sister, Brother Niu, are you here?"
"Here we come, is the old man not here?" Sanli asked, looking around the room.
"I went out to play early and probably won't come back for dinner."
Qiao Simei said casually that Qiao Zuwang was still the same as before. He often didn't eat at home, so it was strange to eat at home.
"If you're not there, then you're not here. Simei, don't keep eating melon seeds. It will make you angry. If you are angry, your child will also be angry with you. I will wash some fruits and you can eat more fruits."
Sanli said so, so she took the fruits she brought and washed them. After she came back, she went to sit on the sofa and chatted with Simei.
They were talking about things that parents have trouble with and have to do with their children.
"Qiqi, you are about to graduate now, right?"
Niu Ye also managed to seize the time to chat with Qiqi alone.
"Well, if you take another exam, you can get your diploma." Even though they were very familiar with each other, Qiao Qiqi was still a little shy.
Not only when facing Niu Ye, but also when facing Qi Weimin, the child was the same. Generally speaking, Qi Qi still had an introverted personality.
"It's time to make a choice again. Do you have any plans for the future?"
Niu Ye continued to ask, Qiao Qiqi could never avoid the question of what kind of job he would do after graduation.
"I don't have much experience now, so I'd better find a job."
Qiqi is still more mature than a few years ago, and she finally has some ideas about herself in the future.
"Okay, is there any job you are interested in, what unit do you want to work in, or what do you want to do?"
Niu Ye planned to arrange Qiao Qiqi's work by himself. After arranging Qiao Qiqi's work, he could also arrange for Qiao Qiqi's marriage.
"This...I haven't thought about it yet."
Qiao Qiqi has made some progress, but not much, and the problem of lack of assertiveness still exists.
"There's no need to rush this. If you have time, you can think about it slowly. You can also refer to the opinions of your partner and my brother."
The reason why Qiao Qiqi has no opinion is that there are too many people who can help Qiao Qiqi make the decision.
"It's a lively chat. What are you talking about?"
Before the chat ended, Qiao Yicheng and Jiu'er opened the door and walked in.
"Brother, you are back. My sister-in-law didn't come back with you?"
"Your sister-in-law is busy with work and has no time this time, so she won't come today."
Xiang Nanfang is also a daughter-in-law who is unlikely to follow Qiao Yicheng back to her old house often.
Ye Xiaolang did it because he disliked the Qiao family, and Xiang Nannan did it because he didn't have time. Although the reasons are different, the result is the same.
"Brother, how have you been since your marriage?"
"We are fine. What were you talking about just now? It was so lively?"
Seeing that Qiao Yicheng's smile was quite sincere, he and Xiang Nannan, a newlywed, should be doing pretty well.
"We didn't talk about anything, we just talked about the kids and stuff." Qiao Simei said to Qiao Yicheng.
"We didn't talk about anything here, we just talked about what we want to do after Qiqi." Niu Ye said.
"In the blink of an eye, it's time for Qiqi to join the work. Whatever Qiqi you want to do, we are here today, and we can help you with your advice."
"I haven't thought about it yet."
Qiqi still felt a little embarrassed about having to trouble so many people with her own affairs.
"You haven't thought about it, so we just did it for you." Simei patted Qiqi on the shoulder and said.
It would be nice if Qiqi, who doesn't open his mouth, can be reconciled with Qiao Simei, who doesn't show any concern.
"Okay, let's not discuss Qiqi's work now. Let's talk about it after Qiqi has an idea."
Seeing that Qiqi was already embarrassed by the question, Niuye ended the topic.
"Let Qi Qi think about work first. Let's pay more attention recently and let Qi Qi choose if there are any good job opportunities."
Qiao Yicheng said finally.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Second brother has already prepared the meal, let's chat while eating." Sanli said when she saw Qiao Erqiang bringing the food.
A group of people went to the kitchen, each person brought two plates of food, and then brought all the food to the main room.
Today's meal may have been prepared by Qiao Erqiang because Xiang Nanfang followed Qiao Yicheng back to Qiao's house for the first time after their marriage, so it was quite sumptuous.
We also made eight dishes and one soup, both large and small, and filled the whole table.
Not to mention Qiao Erqiang's own cooking skills, they are much better than ordinary cooks.
Moreover, the two masters have been cooking at Qiao's house for so many years, and they know each other's tastes well. At least everyone has one or two favorite dishes.
So when you eat at Qiao's house and Erqiang cooks, the food is better than in an ordinary restaurant.
So after the food was served, almost everyone immersed themselves in eating.
The current situation is that even if Qiao Simei and Qiao Erqiang live together, they cannot often eat the food cooked by Qiao Erqiang.
There are not many opportunities to do something simple. Qiao Erqiang is at home on leave, so there are even fewer opportunities to do a serious job.
"You all eat, let me tell you something."
After the meal was almost done, Qiao Yicheng put down his chopsticks and said.
"Brother, tell me."
Everyone raised their heads and looked at Qiao Yicheng.
"What I want to tell you is that although I am married to your sister-in-law, if there is something going on at home or something happens to you in the future, you can still come to me as before and don't disturb your sister-in-law. We can't let anyone see us.
That’s too low, right? As for what you said, you should also convey this to the old man. I want to tell him myself, and he will definitely quarrel with me again..."
One of Qiao Yicheng's main purposes for coming here today is to vaccinate Qiao's family.
The focus of the attack was naturally Qiao Zuwang and Qiao Simei.
Er Qiang, San Li, Qi Qi, if anything happens, it's difficult enough to talk to Qiao Yicheng, let alone go to Xiang Nanfang to do something.
However, Qiao Yicheng's words really didn't sound good, and it seemed like there was a rift between the brothers and sisters.
It will also make the brothers and sisters feel that they are looked down upon by Qiao Yicheng, as if the brothers and sisters will plot something against the Xiang family.
Fortunately, Erqiang, Sanli, and Qiqi, who had no idea at all, felt a little uncomfortable. After thinking about it for a while, they understood Qiao Yicheng's concerns and let it go.
But Qiao Simei was different. The smile on her face disappeared: "Brother, is this what you want to say?"
"Yes, that's what I want to say."
Qiao Yicheng nodded and said calmly. Saying this to his younger brothers and sisters made Qiao Yicheng feel uncomfortable.
"Okay, I understand what you mean. Don't worry, we won't go looking for you. Even if one day we are hungry and beg for food, we won't go looking for you."
Qiao Simei originally had this plan in mind, but she felt that Qiao Yicheng was targeting her, so she sneered and said in a sinister way.
"Simei, that's not what I meant."
Qiao Yicheng explained with embarrassment.
"Simei, how could you misunderstand what my eldest brother means? He doesn't want to sever ties with us. He would have done so long ago. He can still be so angry because of Qi Chenggang's matter."
When there is a conflict at home, Sanli is the one who acts as the peacemaker.
"Of course you won't misunderstand. He has been partial to you Sanli since he was a child. Of course you won't feel anything." After Qiao Simei got angry, she directly attacked Sanli. Then she looked at Qiao Erqiang: "He
It’s us who he dislikes. Ever since we were little, we have been the two of us who have made him lose his value and embarrassed him the most!”
Qiao Simei also directly pulled Qiao Erqiang, hoping that Qiao Erqiang would become her ally.
"I don't feel like I'm embarrassing my eldest brother."
Qiao Erqiang replied very spiritually.
Qiao Erqiang's brain circuit is different, that's what he said, and that's what he thought in his heart.
In Qiao Erqiang's heart, liking other people's wives and marrying his eldest sister's wife are all pursuits of his own love, and it is not a shameful thing.
"Okay, let me be the most cheap and embarrassing."
Qiao Simei became even more angry when she heard that Qiao Erqiang did not agree with her.
"Okay, let's stop talking. Qiao Simei, can you stop thinking about yourself all the time? You have been so selfish since you were a child. Have you ever thought about your elder brother?"
It's okay if Simei and Qiao Yicheng are angry. They can just settle their own issues. Niu Ye can't stand it if they take their anger out on Sanli.
Ever since I was little, for more than 20 years, I have always felt that Qiao Yicheng was partial to Sanli.
This is what he talks about when he gets angry and quarrels, even if Qiao Yicheng really prefers Sanli in his heart.
But in fact, it seems that Qiao Yicheng still bothers the most about Qiao Simei's affairs.
"Why don't I think about him anymore? I don't know how good his life is now. He married a city cadre, and the cadre is the daughter of a provincial leader. If his life is good, he has to draw a clear line with us.
, how can I think about him."
Qiao Simei is indeed Qiao Zuwang's favorite child now. Among the children in the Qiao family, the one who looks most like Qiao Zuwang is Qiao Simei.
Qiao Simei's opinion of Qiao Yicheng should be the same as passers-by's opinion of Qiao Yicheng.
"Qiao Simei, that's what you think? Do you think that if you marry a cadre's daughter, your eldest brother won't have to worry about anything and will live a good life?"
"That's how it is."
"Then have you ever thought about it from the perspective of the eldest brother? How much pressure does he feel when he is a reporter from an ordinary family and marries the daughter of a big cadre?"
Niu Ye asked Qiao Simei to put herself in his shoes, but Qiao Simei just stood there blankly and stopped talking.
"When outsiders see it, will they think that Qiao Yicheng has climbed a high tree? What will he say behind his back? No matter what achievements he makes at work, will others think that Qiao Yicheng's achievements are all because he married the daughter of a cadre?
Relationship? At home, the background gap between the two families is so big. If the eldest brother and sister-in-law stay together, will they feel inferior and feel any pressure?
If we still want to trouble my sister-in-law and the Xiang family because of our own affairs, we will be like the poor relatives who come to visit to fight against the autumn wind. How can you let your eldest brother hold his head high in front of his sister-in-law and the Xiang family? "
Niu Ye continued to talk to Qiao Simei. Qiao Simei was not trained, so she cried after being scolded by Niu Ye for a few words.
"Niu Ye, stop talking." Qiao Yicheng stopped Niu Ye and said.
"Why are you stopping me? Qiao Simei can misunderstand, it has nothing to do with you Qiao Yicheng. What can you do? You have to tell your true situation. No matter how stupid Qiao Simei is, she can't
I misunderstood you."
Niu Ye said to Qiao Yicheng, Qiao Yicheng's awkward personality also accounted for a large part of the reason for the quarrel today.
He was very concerned about the whole affairs of Lao Qiao's family, but Qiao Yicheng never told his family if he was in trouble.
"And you asked them to tell the old man what they said. Which of them can the old man listen to? If you are afraid of quarreling with the old man, just ask them to tell you. The old man is going to Xiang's house. Do you want to quarrel with him?
Let me tell you the truth. From the day of your wedding, the old man planned to ask the Xiang family to handle things for him. I even tried to persuade him, but he didn’t listen. He said that he would talk to you in person.
Is it done yet?”
"Okay, please stop saying a few words. Simei, you really should understand me. Brother, you shouldn't hide everything from us."
Sanli first said to Niu Ye, after Niu Ye trained this and that, Sanli couldn't stand it anymore.
When Sanli spoke herself, although she still meant the same thing, she was much more tactful.
"Brother, I was wrong."
Qiao Simei cried again and took Qiao Yicheng's arm to apologize.
