After the IV drip, Qiao Xinwei felt much more relaxed, "Hey, I can finally be a human being with my head held high."
Dean Shen has been staying outside until now. As he was tidying up, he said: "Go back and have a good sleep at night. If you feel uncomfortable tomorrow, just call me. Oh, by the way, don't forget to take your medicine and don't spend too much money. Eat something with a strong flavor.”
"Well, thank you, Dean Shen."
"You're welcome, this is all something that can be done easily." Dean Shen turned his attention to Jiang Hao. He looked like a dog-legger and said, "Chief Jiang, my son still has to take care of you in the army. "
Qiao Xinwei's eyes flashed, that's it.
Jiang Hao owed his hand, "Dean Shen, you are an elder, don't be so polite to me... Shen Ze's punishment this time is certain, I can't decide whether he will be convicted or not."
Jiang Hao put his arms around Qiao Xinwei and was about to leave. Dean Shen stood in front of them and looked at Jiang Hao with pleading eyes. He sighed and said, "Chief Jiang, I know that the mistake he made this time was too undeserved. But if he is convicted like this, his life... will be ruined."
Dean Shen looked for many opportunities but could not see Jiang Hao. Today, he wanted to talk to him alone, but he stayed with Qiao Xinwei all the time. Seeing that they were about to leave, he could no longer care about so much. What a pity for the world. As a parent, you have to give it a try no matter what.
Jiang Hao saw the eagerness and helplessness in Dean Shen's eyes. He understood all this, but, "Dean Shen, I will definitely help if I can. Shen Ze usually performs well. I have written a certificate and submitted it. How will it be decided in the end?" , I really can’t do anything.”
"Oh, it's Chinese New Year, and every family is having a reunion dinner. It's a pity that my son is there and I don't know how he is doing." Dean Shen burst into tears. He had always been proud of his son, but his son suddenly appeared from the sky. He fell to the ground, "Shen Ze must have been implicated, he was just confused for a moment."
Jiang Hao patted Dean Shen on the shoulder and advised kindly: "This matter is too involved. People across the country are paying attention. The only thing you can do is wait."
After walking out of the hospital, Director Shen watched them leave. In front of others, he was the director of the hospital with great fame, but who could understand the sadness and helplessness of a father. Qiao Xinwei looked back and saw Director Shen standing in the wind. After not going in for a long time, she couldn't help but be curious and asked: "Husband, what happened to Dean Shen's son? Oh, I know this is a military secret and I can't ask, but you can tell me secretly and I will keep it strictly confidential."
Seeing the way she raised her hands and vowed, Jiang Hao smiled and said, "I can tell at a glance that you are not someone who watches the news."
"Why not..." She felt guilty. She usually only watched entertainment and gossip news. "The signal is not good in the snowy mountains, so I didn't watch it."
"It's still a matter of Midland. President Shen's son was suspected of taking bribes and was cheated. The news reported it. He only took two cigarettes from a senior executive of Midland just two days ago. He is in an embarrassing situation."
It was really embarrassing. Just two cigarettes made a promising young man bow down. Qiao Xinwei said with emotion: "Then Dean Shen will really have to avenge his son."
There were not many cars on the road, and the occasional one drove by very fast, all rushing home to celebrate the New Year. There were red lanterns on both sides of the road, and the branches were covered with light strips, and everything was full of New Year flavor.
"Let's go home and celebrate the New Year."
In the Shen family, Lin Caiyin couldn't wait any longer and waited at the door. As soon as she heard the sound, she quickly opened the door.
She looked at her son, who was getting thinner and darker. He didn't often wear a coat on such a cold day. He was a mother in her thirties and still asked her to worry about her. And her daughter-in-law, why didn't she look at it?
Satisfied, too thin, too weak, not tall enough, so different from Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao pulled Qiao Xinwei to the door. Qiao Xinwei cheered up and shouted: "Mom, we are back."
Lin Caiyin looked at her dissatisfiedly, "Has your mother been starving you since you were a child? How come you are so thin?!"
"..." She smiled awkwardly, "Haha, Jiang Hao's windbreaker is too big, so I look thin."
Jiang Hao put his hand on her shoulder, with a "Don't bully my wife" attitude, and said jokingly: "Mom, you are wrong, she looks thin, but she actually feels very fleshy."
"Ahem!" Qiao Xinwei said, blood stuck in her throat. This was not a joke.
Lin Caiyin rolled her eyes at him, "You're not serious," she shook her head, still very dissatisfied with Qiao Xinwei, "Come in, your dad is already anxious."
This was Qiao Xinwei's first New Year's Eve dinner at the Jiang family. Needless to say, the dishes were rich and tasted excellent. The Jiang family specially invited the hotel chef to cook it at home, but she felt uncomfortable. Jiang Hao in Jiang Zhizhong
The father and son are just two statues. They are very serious. They don't chat while eating, and they don't even talk when they drink and clink glasses. The only sound in the dining room and living room of Nuo Da is the sound of chopsticks hitting dishes, which is extremely depressing.
Suddenly, Jiang Zhizhong spoke, "Are you feeling well?"
Qiao Xinwei was chewing half of a chicken wing in her mouth. When her father-in-law asked, she immediately put down her chopsticks, straightened her back and said, "It's nothing serious."
"It's all your mother's fault. Why did she let you go to the military camp for nothing? How could a girl's family endure the severe cold there?"
Lin Caiyin: "Yes, yes, if the old man blames me, he blames me."
How dare Qiao Xinwei take it? She said anxiously: "It's not my fault, it's my poor health."
Jiang Zhizhong saw her nervous look and said, "Relax at home and eat whatever you want. Don't be restricted."
"Eh, hehe."
Jiang Zhizhong turned to Jiang Hao and said, "Don't go there after this time. It's not under your control. Just stay in the capital and do your thing. There's nothing you can't worry about." When people get older, they like their children.
Stay around, even if you don't stay around, you don't want them to be in danger all day long.
Jiang Hao: "There will be a new official transferred there next year, so I won't be needed."
After saying this for a while, she became quiet again. Qiao Xinwei silently picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat. This dish was so delicious. She had to make up for the oil and water she had eaten less during these days. She had to eat it when she was sick.
Things like blandness have been thrown out of the window a long time ago.
After dinner, the father and son sat on the sofa watching the Spring Festival Gala and chatting from time to time. She took the initiative to help clean up the dishes and chopsticks, "Mom, I'll wash it. I'll wash it all."
"Don't ask a patient like you to wash dishes. I'm afraid Ah Hao will blame me again." Lin Caiyin is also a straightforward person.
Qiao Xinwei said nothing, took a rag and started washing. She often did housework when she was at Jing's house. There was no reason to do nothing when she arrived at her husband's house. She could wash the dishes quickly and cleanly.
Lin Caiyin saw that she was so deft that she couldn't even intervene. She thought that if she were an official lady today, she would probably have to be taken care of.
"Mom, the dish soap is gone. Please unscrew the lid. My hands are slippery."
"What are you doing to unscrew it? There are new ones."
"There is still a lot in it that cannot be wasted. Pour some water in it and it will last for a while."
Lin Caiyin did as he was told. It seemed that Qiao Xinwei was quite diligent and thrifty.

At this moment, Ji Xiaohai was still wandering outside. His cell phone had been vibrating before, but now it was out of power and turned off, lying dead in his pocket.
On New Year's Eve, there were fewer people on the street than usual, but it was not deserted. There were many people who came out for a walk after the reunion dinner and had fun.
On the first New Year's Eve after getting married, he didn't want to go home. What a ridiculous thing.
Isn't that right? Ever since he had a relationship with Sun Rongxuan, his life has become ridiculous.
He misses the past seven years with Qiao Xinwei. Those were their most innocent seven years, and they shared both the bitterness and sweetness.
After graduating, going to work, getting promoted, and achieving some small achievements, his heart began to swell, and he began to be unable to resist various temptations.
When they first started having an affair with Sun Rongxuan, they enjoyed the excitement of having an affair. They agreed not to let Xinwei know and not to hurt her. However, this kind of luck made him more and more bold. He underestimated Sun Rongxuan and underestimated a woman's strength.
Jealousy.
That day, when Xinwei opened the door and saw them naked and intertwined on the bed, he knew that everything was ruined. He wanted to make up for it, he tried to apologize, he begged for forgiveness, but Sun Rongxuan's early pregnancy report completely shocked him.
Broken his dream.
What to do, he could only move forward. On one side was Xin Wei, who hated him to death, and on the other was Rong Xuan, who was obsessed with it. He chose the latter.
After getting married, Sun Rongxuan began to expose her greed. The daily necessities of daily necessities made her dissatisfied with the status quo. She began to compare and become dissatisfied. The child was lost when she accidentally fell down during their first quarrel.
of.
The relationship between them also changed with the loss of this child.
On this night of national celebration, he cried alone, and the cold air made him understand that he would either get a divorce or die.
"Hey, Mom, I'm fine." I called home from a public phone, and the phone was filled with Sun Rongxuan's terrifying cries.
"Xiao Hai, come back soon. Rong Xuan has gone crazy. She said she wants to burn the house down."
"Mom, don't pay attention to her, she's just talking."
Sun Rongxuan, who was fussing in the room, heard her mother-in-law talking on the phone. She ran out in a rage and shouted with a broken voice: "Ji Xiaohai, if you don't come back, I'll kill you."
Ji Xiaohai became even more upset when he heard the noisy sound, "Mom, I'll be back soon, please be careful."
After hanging up the phone, he felt that he was really unfilial and had made his mother suffer.
When I got home, the living room, which was not big, was in a mess. The cabinets, tables and stools were all crooked, soup and water were scattered all over the floor, and there was almost no place to stand. It can be imagined that the room must be even more unbearable.
Head.
"Mother?"
Sun Rongxuan came out of the room, disheveled, "Ji Xiaohai, you still know how to come back?!"
"You are crazy again, where is my mother?"
The mother who was hiding on the balcony came in, "I'm here, Xiaohai. I think I'd better go back to my hometown. I can't stay here any longer."
"Damn old woman, you should have gone back a long time ago. The house only has so much room, and I have to leave a room for you to live in. Get out."
When Ji Xiaohai heard this, without saying a word, he walked up and slapped her in the face.
Sun Rongxuan fell down in response. She held her face and stared at Ji Xiaohai in disbelief, "You hit me, you hit me...you are a domestic violence!"
Ji Xiaohai found it ridiculous. He rolled up his sleeves and spread out the old and new scars in front of her, "Who is the domestic violence? Who is it?"
