Chapter 1680 Qiao Buwang Missed Another Opportunity
Evening
The Qiao Family's Gate
Qiao Buwang and Yi Zhonghai walked into the middle courtyard side by side, talking and laughing, followed by Erqiang and his wife and Qi Weiyi.
"Dad, you're finally off work! We've been waiting for you for so long..."
Qiao Buwang looked at his two daughters and was happy at first, but then he frowned.
He always felt that his little daughter's smile today gave people a sense of ill intention... Why was she waiting for him?
"Hey, why are you back? Today is not Sunday!"
Wu A-mei made a gesture to Qiao Buwang from behind the two girls, and the old man's heart skipped a beat. I knew they were up to no good! They actually asked me for money... I haven't even enjoyed your blessing yet, and you actually have the nerve to ask me for money?
Qiao Buwang never expected that he would come back to ask for money today after he was still talking about his daughter yesterday. He must have come back on purpose to irritate him!
They all have good looks and temperament. But they are all stupid and don't know how to please men... It's a waste of time to raise them up, they don't know how to share my worries...
Qiao Sanli also mustered up the courage to step forward and said, "Can't you come back and take a look on Sunday?"
Qiao Buwang had already seen the gestures his wife was making, so his face turned as bitter as a bitter gourd.
"Why are you waiting for me?"
At this time, Qiao Simei stepped forward and stretched out her hand: "It's cold! My sister and I want to buy cotton-padded clothes and shoes. The dormitory at school is too cold and we need to make quilts... It's too tiring for my brother and sister-in-law to pay for our schooling! So we came back to ask you for money to buy new clothes... If not you, who should our father wait for?"
Qiao Buwang almost vomited blood after hearing this. It was obvious that the two girls were wearing high-quality new cotton-padded clothes...but they actually wanted money to buy new ones?
Nowadays, everyone's cotton-padded clothes have been patched up for years, but the ones they wear look like they were made this year. They actually want to buy more... They don't know their own weight and are just buying cotton-padded clothes regardless of their conditions.
But when he thought that his two daughters might be able to find other children of cadres in the future, Qiao Buwang still asked a question.
"How much money do you want?"
Qiao Simei stretched out her hand: "Thirty yuan isn't a lot, right? Since my eldest brother got married, you can..."
Qiao Buwang immediately interrupted the little girl's chattering...
"Are you two sisters out of your mind? Or have you been stupid because of school... No, no... I haven't even made a new cotton-padded jacket myself, so how can I have the money to give you? Three yuan is about right, but even if you kill me, I still can't get thirty yuan. And now we haven't collected enough money for your second brother's wedding..."
Qiao Buwang was so angry that he started to blurt out his catchphrase.
Lin Chen called back the Qiao sisters on purpose, just to test whether Qiao Buwang would change... Now it seems he deserves to be beaten.
Qiao Simei stomped her little feet angrily.
"Humph, if you don't want to give it to me, forget it... Let's go ask Big Brother for it..."
Simei took her sister and left without looking back, and the Qiao family was stunned. After all, thirty yuan is not a small amount, but Qiao is not looking forward to a month's salary.
"Oh, oh, oh, look at you... He's so irritable even when asking for money. He'll definitely be an ungrateful person in the future. Fortunately, the eldest couple took them away! Otherwise, they would have wasted our food..."
This scene attracted many people to watch...
Sha Zhu and Xu Damao despised Qiao Buwang's actions. Why were they so excited? The main reason was that they both had younger sisters. What if my father also learned from Qiao Buwang? So they immediately blamed Qiao Buwang...
In order to avoid being criticized by people in the hospital, Qiao Buwang took out the agreement signed by Qiao Yicheng and Lin Chen as a witness.
"Old Yi, Old He, look, it's not that I don't care about them... it's the eldest brother and his wife who insisted on splitting up the family, and took the initiative to ask to take the two younger sisters away to share the pressure on the Qiao family. And I will be responsible for raising Erqiang and Qiqi... It's clearly written in black and white, and Brother Lin is the witness."
Yi Zhonghai would definitely stand on the side of his ally, and he immediately started to complain about Qiao Buwang’s poverty.
"It's not easy for you, Old Qiao. You've raised five children over the years... You've been both a father and a mother. These two little girls really don't understand you at all."
Now many people in the middle courtyard are talking about it, saying all kinds of things... After all, it is not a small expense to support two daughters to go to high school and college, and the Qiao family may not be able to afford it. After all, there is also Qiao Qiqi below...
Qiao Erqiang and his wife had to support the younger brothers and sisters of the Ding family, and they did not have the ability to support the younger brothers and sisters of the Qiao family.
"Uncle Qiao, you don't have thirty dollars, but you should at least give me ten! And you, Qiao Erqiang, you only think about your sister-in-law and brother-in-law after you got married... You don't care about your own sister at all."
"Da Mao is right... My sister Yu Shui came back last week, and I gave her five dollars for living expenses! Studying is very demanding, how can you not eat something oily? How can you be in the mood to study when you are hungry every day?"
These two guys sang the same tune against Yi Zhonghai, which made Yi so angry that he glared at her.
Qiao Erqiang immediately stood up to refute: "What does it have to do with you two? Are you bored? My wife has no parents. If we don't help them, do we want them to starve to death? I think you are deliberately trying to stir up internal strife in our Qiao family..."
When Ding Xiangqin saw that Da Changlian was talking about her younger brother and sister, she immediately jumped out to confront him.
The Intermediate Courtyard suddenly became lively... Even the Beanworm came out to criticize the Qiao family. After all, he was also afraid that the old lady would push the younger sister to him.
The gate of the courtyard
Lin Chen got off the car carrying the pheasants and rabbits, and happened to meet the Qiao sisters coming out...
"Take this away and have a snack..."
Qiao Sanli took it and smiled: "Hey, we didn't ask for any money... My dad is still the same, don't worry about him in the future... Let him do whatever he wants!"
Lin Chen knew they would not come, so he let them come.
"This is not the place to talk. You guys go back! I'll go find Baita Hutong tonight..."
When Qiao Simei heard that her brother Lin Chen was going to Baita Hutong in the evening, she did not go back to Lishi Hutong... but followed her sister back to Xicheng District to find Xu Lingling, Lou Xiaoe, Ran Qiuye and Ding Qiunan.
When Lin Chen arrived at the middle courtyard, Qiao Buwang was still arguing with Sha Zhu and a few other young men...
"Old Qiao, what's wrong with you? I just saw two girls crying and walking away at the entrance of the alley!"
When Qiao Buwang saw Lin Chen coming back, he went up to him and told him what had just happened... He really wanted Lin Chen to take his daughter in again, so that there might be a chance of a turnaround. It would be more likely than if she stayed with her eldest son and his wife...
Lin Chen patted Qiao Buwang's shoulder helplessly.
"It's really not easy for you. You have to support a whole family with one salary... Let Yicheng and his wife pay for this! After all, it's clearly written in black and white... You can keep it! I don't need to read the agreement I drafted for you."
