It was not easy for him to have the opportunity to meet Mr. Li, and it was not easy for Mr. Li to smile to him when he saw him. Qiao Zijin, who was about to feel proud that he was loved by everyone, his face froze, and then he said "hmm" in response.
In the throat, neither up nor down.
Why did Mr. Li call Qiao Nan's name as soon as he opened his mouth?
Qiao Nan has always been a stupid person. When has he ever been as lovable as her? How could Mr. Li mistake her for Qiao Nan?
Because Qiao Zijin stopped his voice and let out a muffled groan, which was slightly out of tune, Mr. Li thought that Qiao Zijin admitted it.
Seeing that this child was indeed the one he was looking for, Mr. Li smiled even more kindly: "Xiao Qiao, you have really raised a good daughter. She is indeed like the daughter of our soldiers, with a full sense of justice."
"But Xiao Qiao, you should pay more attention to your child's health. Nannan, are you frightened by what happened last time and are sick, so your throat is uncomfortable?"
"..."
"..."
The Qiao family were speechless for a while.
Qiao Zijin's "hmm" just now was clearly out of his mouth too quickly, and when he tried to pinch him, he couldn't hold it back out of tune. How could he admit that there was something wrong with his health?
"Uncle Li, you have recognized the wrong person. This is my eldest daughter Qiao Zijin, and this is my youngest daughter Qiao Nan. Nan Nan, you haven't met Uncle Li yet, come on, call me Grandpa Li."
Although he doesn't know why Mr. Li came to his home, Qiao Dongliang's respect for Mr. Li has never changed.
"Grandpa Li." Qiao Nan called out.
Qiao Nan was also wondering why Mr. Li called her by name when he came to their house.
Of course, Qiao Nan was not angry but rather happy when she called her name to Qiao Zijin. Who made Qiao Zijin look embarrassed?
"Oh, you are Nan Nan. You look so good. Xiao Qiao, you have raised a good daughter. Nan Nan doesn't talk much, but she is really a down-to-earth and hard-working person. She has the unpretentious spirit of our soldiers.
and style.”
Mr. Li knew that he had mistaken the wrong person, so he smiled slightly and didn't care about it.
After Qiao Dongliang was discharged from the army, Qiao Dongliang stopped looking for Mr. Li. Mr. Li also knew about Qiao Dongliang's feelings, and coupled with his disappointment in Qiao Dongliang, the two families had less and less contact and almost stopped moving.
When Qiao Zijin was little, Mr. Li hugged him once, but after Qiao Nan was born, Mr. Li never saw Qiao Nan.
The two children are not very different, so it is normal for Mr. Li not to recognize them.
"..." When she heard Mr. Li's compliment, Qiao Nan couldn't help but twitch her lips. Why did she feel that what Mr. Li just praised her for sounded so familiar? When Mr. Li mistakenly identified Qiao Zijin as her.
, seems to have said similar things, right?
Is this memorizing lines?
The first time she met Mr. Li, Qiao Nan thought Mr. Li was quite funny.
Qiao Dongliang may have been used to Mr. Li's situation for a long time, so he smiled: "Uncle Li, my little daughter is really good. She has always been good at studying. Not only is she the deputy monitor of the class, but she also wins the Three Excellent Student and Outstanding Class Cadre Awards every year.
.It’s just that my wife was too careless and accidentally burned Nan Nan’s certificate.”
Qiao Dongliang immediately became a show-off maniac. When he mentioned Qiao Nan, his tone was extremely proud.
Since he retired from the army, he has not dared to see Mr. Li. Qiao Dongliang's biggest wish is that his two daughters can be outstanding and promising during Mr. Li's lifetime.
In this way, he could lead his daughter to stand in front of Mr. Li and say: "My choice back then was not wrong, Mr. Li, I still have not let you down."
He has no future, but he has raised a daughter who has more promise!
"Mr. Li, you don't know, Nan Nan is in the third grade of junior high school, and she failed in Chinese and math at the beginning of school. Because of this, her Chinese teacher was angry, saying that she almost got full marks in the composition, and she just memorized some things by rote.
But they all lost points. She could have scored 99, but she got 85 instead. Fortunately, Nannan scored 100 in English, and she was the only one in the school."
After knowing that Qiao Nan was not only the deputy squad leader, but also received certificates every year, Qiao Dongliang became more and more concerned about Qiao Nan's affairs after self-reflection.
This Wednesday, Qiao Dongliang specially asked for an hour's leave from the factory, went to Qiao Nan School, and asked Qiao Nan's main teachers about his daughter.
You don't know if you don't ask, but when you ask, the pride in Qiao Dongliang's heart can't help but surge out.
Any teacher who teaches a younger daughter will give a thumbs up when mentioning the younger daughter.
Even though Teacher Li was heartbroken when he mentioned his little daughter's Chinese language performance, it was because of deep love and deep responsibility.
Qiao Dongliang understands good and bad words, and every word of Teacher Li has the same meaning. If Qiao Nan hadn't reviewed well, Qiao Nan would have scored at least ninety-nine in this Chinese language test.
Ninety-nine, and it’s Chinese. This is a score that Qiao Dongliang has never heard of before.
At least my eldest daughter has been in junior high school for three years, and if she can get 89 in the Chinese test, she is considered to have performed well.
Faced with the teachers' hints, Qiao Dongliang's face felt hot and uncomfortable. He could not blame his youngest daughter for telling his wife about selling books.
After all, it was indeed his wife who caused the younger daughter’s grades to fall, but the family scandal must not be made public, it’s such a mess!
That is to say, this time Qiao Nan had the worst test result in her history, but it was also her best performance, which made Qiao Dongliang raise his head and speak in front of Mr. Li.
"Oh, really?" Mr. Li was a little surprised. He knew Qiao Dongliang's temperament. If there was nothing wrong, Qiao Dongliang would not be lying.
Mr. Li is now a grandfather and has children in school at home, so he knows that after entering junior high school, not to mention high scores like 99 or 100, even getting to 95 in the exam is considered to be extremely good.
"As expected, he is a hard-working person." Mr. Li looked at Qiao Nan with more and more loving eyes, as if he were looking at his granddaughter.
Mr. Li is getting older and doesn't have many other ideas. He just hopes that his children and grandchildren will be successful and study hard.
Therefore, children with good grades like Qiao Nan are naturally Mr. Li's favorite type. What's more, the reason why Mr. Li came to Qiao's house today is because of Qiao Nan's good character.
"Xiao Qiao, do you know why I came to your house today?"
"..." Qiao Dongliang was stunned for a moment: "Does Uncle Li have anything to do with me?"
"I'm here to thank your family on behalf of the Zhu family."
"Zhu family, Uncle Zhu's house?" Qiao Dongliang is not familiar with the Zhu family. The Zhu family is Uncle Li's in-laws, and the Zhu family's son married Uncle Li's daughter.
The Zhu family and the Li family are both from this compound, and they are in the same family, so the Zhu family's status is not low.
"Yes, it's your Uncle Zhu's house." A look of excitement appeared on Uncle Li's face. He suppressed his emotions for a while before continuing: "You should have heard about my daughter."
"Mr. Li, after so many years, you have to take care of yourself." (To be continued)
