In this era, everyone's behavior was still very conservative. Though Da Qiao and Huo Chi were match, they can't always be in pairs. It would easily attract attention, if they did.


Therefore, Huo Chi could only drop the idea of eating with Da Qiao, taking on her meal card, grabbing her meal, and washing her dishes as he didn't want her to be the topic of discussion.

In this era, the college students received subsidy from the state. The state would give each students a meal ticket of 20 yuan every month. If the family was not fairly well off, they can apply for an additional 3 yuan subsidy.

Xu Chun Juan from Da Qiao's dorm applied.

Due to this, Huo Chi couldn't show any potential use.

Want to spend money for his match, but can't spend.

Felt so aggrieved.

Da Qiao had to comfort him in private: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, you have already spent a lot of money on me. You bought all of my clothes, schoolbags, and watches."

Almost all of her daily necessities were taken care of by him.

In addition to her birthday every year, Elder Brother Huo Chi gifted her on the day the two met each year. She felt so cared for.

Seeing that there was no one around, Huo Chi secretly grabbed her white and tender little hand.

Then he quickly let go: "My money is your money. Whatever you want to buy in the future, just tell me!"

Da Qiao's eyebrows curved with joy. Her mind was suddenly in a playful mood: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, what about my money. Is it yours too?"

Huo Chi originally wanted to nod.

After all, they will become husband and wife in the future. All their things are shared. His is hers, then hers should also be his.

However, at that moment, a flash of light popped in his mind. He immediately changed his mind and uttered, "No, your money is yours. Mine is yours. It's all yours!"

The dimple at the corner of Da Qiao's mouth deepened: "Elder Brother Huo Xhi, you have become good at talking recently."

Huo Chi looked at her fair and ruddy face and said, "Then do you like me being like this?" Do you find me too greasy?

Da Qiao nodded in affirmation: "Elder Brother Huo Chi is perfect any way you are!"

Apart from her grandparents, Elder Brother Huo Chi was the one who treated her best in the world.

Of course her family treat her very well, but it always felt different.

Hearing this, Huo Chi felt like he was flying. His heart felt sweeter than drinking honey water.

——

The more Cai Ru Nan got along with Da Qiao, the more regretful she felt that she wasn't a man.

If she were a man, she could compete with Huo Chi to marry Goddess home!

On this day, they were walking to the dining hall to eat.

Cai Ru Nan asked Da Qiao, "Da Qiao, if I were a boy, would you consider choosing me?"

Da Qiao glanced down to look at her, Then her head bluntly shook: "No, I won't find a man shorter than me!"

Cai Ru Nan's mouth twitched: "..."

At least give some comfort. Don't insert a knife like this?

Cai Ru Nan didn't know knife-mouth was Qiao Family's trait. From Qiao Zhen Guo to the youngest Xue An Xu, everyone was an expert in giving jabbing remarks.

Strictly speaking, Cai Ru Nan wasn't actually short. She was 1.63 meters tall. Among the female students, she was considered not bad.

Unfortunately, Da Qiao's figure was too superior and too tall. She was now 1.73 meters tall. Among the girls, she was a crane standing in a flock of chickens.

Cai Ru Nan sighed, "Only someone like Senior Brother Huo is worthy of your height!"

Da Qiao was about to speak when she saw Huo Chi on the opposite side looking at her. He showed her a gentle smile. At once, her lips hooked into a smile. She silently called out "Elder Brother Huo Chi".

Cai Ru Nan, who was fed a mouthful of dog food: "..."

She was still here. Anyway, be mindful of her, a single dog!

Once he reached canteen window, Huo Chi immediately pulled his roommate aside to give away their position: "This spot is for you. We will go to the back and line up again."

Da Qiao curled her lips into a smile: "Thank you, Elder Brother Huo Chi. There's no need. We'll queue!"

Huo Chi spoke: "It's okay. My roommate is also delighted to give up his position to you, right?"

Friendly roommate: "..."

In this situation, how can he say no?

So at the insistence of Huo Chi and his roommate, Da Qiao and Cai Ru Nan took their place.

Cai Ru Nan sighed again: "I finally understand why Wang Da Xian hates you so much. You are not only good-looking, but also smarter than her. Even your match is wonderful. Comparison makes people miserable!"

Da Qiao's soft voice answered: "Don't sigh. You are also wonderful. You can find a good partner in the future!"

Cai Runan curled her lips, "Forget it. I'm ready to be single for a lifetime."

With her appearance, fashion style, and tomboy behavior, many boys may become good friends with her or even brothers with her. No one would ever like her.

Da Qiao patted her shoulder and comforted: "Don't be depressed. Maybe your fated one will come soon!"

Cai Ru Nan didn't take it seriously.

If Qiao Xiu Zhi was here, she would definitely tell her that Da Qiao's mouth was a golden mouth. Even more powerful than a godly fortuneteller!

Da Qiao ordered a scrambled pork and cabbage and one egg. Cai Ru Nan ordered a scrambled egg with tomatoes. The two took the food and found a place to sit.

Along the way, both guys and girls' eyes were glued to Da Qiao.

She was like a ray of light. Wherever she pass, she set off a wave of amazement.

Because Da Qiao stuttered when she was a child, she didn't like to talk when she was eating. Later, when she was with her grandparents, she subtly learned good manners.

Her grandfather used to be a landowner young master. Her great-grandmother was said to be a lady of a major household.

According to her grandfather, if he dropped something on the table when he was eating, he would be scolded.

Sitting opposite of Da Qiao, Cai Ru Nan watched her eat in amazement.

Celestial fairies were celestial fairies. They looked beautiful even when eating!

Seeing her like this, Da Qiao didn't know whether to cry or laugh: "Hurry up and eat. The food will be cold in a while!"

Only then, Cai Ru Nan picked up her chopsticks. Because of having a good example in front of her, her eating speed slowed down.

Halfway through the meal, a sudden crashing sound appeared from behind. Then it was followed by a girl's displeased vent.

"Watch where you're going! This dress is brand new. How vexing!"

The boy who bumped into her kept his head down and apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. How about you give me your clothes, so I can wash for you?"

As soon as these words came out, the girl was even more furious. If there weren't so many people here, she would definitely berate him more.

Can a girl's clothes be washed casually by a stranger?

The two weren't a couple!

Sure enough, everyone looked at the two with ambiguous eyes at these words.

The boy also seemed to realize that he had said something wrong and repeatedly apologized again.

Then he took out two dime and a few cent notes from his trouser pocket. His intention was to stuff this to the girl as compensation.

Irked, the girl stretched out her hand and pushed away the hand he stretched over. Between the two pushing back and forth, the veil face mask on the girl's face was suddenly dropped.

A round of gasping sounded.

Only then did Da Qiao curiously turn around. Afterward, she froze.

That girl was none other than Huo Chi's classmate, Tang Miao Shan.

It was just the last time she saw Tang Miao Shan, her skin was fair and smooth. Her whole body got a ruddy glow.

But now she had several large pimples on her face. Although the number wasn't many, but the pimples were too big. They were red and swollen with white sacs. Quite a disgusting sight.

Cai Ru Nan had a surprise expression: "Isn't that the school flower of our school?"

The surrounding had similar whispers.

"My God, isn't that Senior Sister Tang from the sophomore year? How did she become like this?"

"I don't know. I remember when I saw her a few days ago, her face was fine. Could it be allergies?"

"Allergies aren't like this! That's acne. It's the first time I've seen such big acnes!"

"I've seen it on the face of one of my relatives before. Acne inflamed to this degree, it will definitely leave scars in the future!"

Tang Miao Shan's face flushed red as she listened to the discussion ringing in her ears. This redness made the pimples on her face stand out even more.

The boy standing in front of her got a close up view. When he saw the pimples on her face, his expression showed how scared he was.

His reaction completely angered Tang Miao Shan. She pushed him away, turned around, and ran out of the dining hall.

She didn't know how her face became like this.

Her skin was notoriously known for being top-notch from childhood to adulthood. During puberty, other classmates would more or less have pimples on their faces. While she never did.

This was her proudest advantage. But since last weekend, a few red rashes appeared on her face. It had her bursting into tears at once.

Her mom had took her to the hospital to see a doctor. The doctor said that her skin was a little inflamed and told her not to smear on those cheap skin care products.

Hearing this, she almost screamed!

Her skin care products were all bought from department stores. They were all the most expensive and best!

Saying this was obviously looking down on her!

Moreover, that damn doctor had no ability. No medicine was prescribed, causing the rash on her face to recklessly develop. It had grew into what it was today!

She had cried several times in the past few days. She can't eat or sleep either. Multiple doctor trip were made and all said nothing could be done!

How exasperating!

Cai Ru Nan didn't retrieve her gaze until Tang Miao Shan was out of sight. She grumbled to Da Qiao: "I was not convinced when everyone said she was a school flower. In my opinion, her looks doesn't even compare to a finger of yours. Now she has pimples all over her face, the title of school flower can always be taken off, right?"

Anyone who had seen Da Qiao will definitely say she look better than Tang Miao Shan.


More people recognize Tang Miao Shan since she entered the school earlier and she was the master of ceremony in a few of the student union's etiquette department's activities.

Da Qiao had only entered the school for a month. She was low-key and didn't like to participate in activities. Few people have seen her.

Da Qiao didn't care. Instead, she reminded her: "Quickly eat. If you keep at this, I won't wait for you!"

She wasn't interested in being the school flower. Any would do as long as it didn't disturb her life and study.

When Cai Ru Nan heard this, she picked up her pace.

——

"Dong He, I'm thirsty. Pour me a glass of water to drink." Mother Luo yelled while lying on the bed.

At first, one of the reason Mother Luo snuck to the capital was because she didn't want to live with her man, Luo Qing. In the past two years, them husband and wife had been quarreling every day. She had enough of him.

Second, she wanted to come and get close to her grandson.

Who knew that on the first day she came to the capital, Qiao Dong He would give her a slap in the face- pretending to be sick and not picking her up at the station!

Then she worked so hard to serve her and cook for her. What she received was disdain. Not a heiress but got the habit of one. Simply spoiled!

The last point, Qiao Dong He's belly had become more and more prominent recently. People around her said her belly was round and it should be a daughter!

But how was this possible?

Right now, the country had implemented family planning. If she has a daughter, won't she cut off her son's family line?

It was all this lowly woman's fault. On the wedding day, she asked someone for a secret recipe for her to drink. And she didn't want to drink it. If she drank it at that time, she would definitely have a son in her stomach now!

The more she thought about it, the more angry she became. Her son happened to be on a business trip with his mentor these few days. 'Concidently', she fell ill.

Just as Qiao Dong He sat down, she heard her mother-in-law yell again.

She quickly stood up while holding her waist. Exhaustion was etched on her face.

In the past two days, her mother-in-law complained of a headache for a while and told her to massage her head.

Next moment, she said that her leg hurt and told her to hammer her leg. When eating, she suddenly found the food too bland. Next time, the taste was too heavy and she couldn't eat it. In order for her to eat it, she had to cook another meal.

She told her mother-in-law to go to the hospital. Her mother-in-law insisted that she was fine. Instead, demand her to take a leave of absence from school. Right now, she was worried that she wouldn't be able to complete the credits for this semester!

She poured a glass of water that was neither hot nor cold. The temperature was just right and walked in: "Mom, drink water."

Mother Luo accepted the water. One sip and it was put down: "My tastebud suddenly gone a little weak. Dong He, go and find me some sour plums."

Qiao Dong He frowned: "Mom, there are no plums in this season. If you want to eat sour, why don't I get you some sour pickled plums."

After she was pregnant, she always wanted to eat sour. So Luo Jun Liang bought her a lot of sour pickled plums to keep at home.

Mother Luo waved her hand: "I don't want to eat those dry thing. I want to eat something fresh. Since there's no plums, don't you know to look for something similar. I think you don't want to look for it!"

Qiao Dong He paled and replied, "Mom, I'm a little tired today. How about I'll go find it for you tomorrow."

The place they lived in was only ten squares meter. There was only one bed at home. Originally, Luo Jun Liang wanted to make a bed in the living room for his mom. However, his mom wasn't happy about it. So during this time, she slept with her mother-in-law on one bed.

Her mother-in-law snored and ground her teeth in sleep. Her sleeping posture was great either. Not only was she unable to sleep because of the noise every day, but she also had to be careful of her mother-in-law kicking her in the stomach at night.

In short, she hadn't rested well during this period of time. On top of that, she had depression. She was in a very poor state.

Especially in the past two days. She ran up and down several times. She didn't want to move at all.

Mother Luo's voice suddenly increased several decibels: "Why are you tired? You only stay at home every day and don't have to work in the fields. Why is there to be tired about? When I was pregnant with old Second, I was still working in the field. You clearly look down on me, a rural mother-in-law!"


"Your Qiao Family is booming now, so you look down on our Luo Family, don't you! Let me tell you, when your father-in-law was the director of the supply and demand cooperative, your family was still mudleg. Prosperity and decline never last. You think your family would be rich forever. Maybe that restaurant in your family will be closed tomorrow!"

Mother Luo pointed at Qiao Dong He's nose and spat saliva on her face.

In addition to menopause, what happened to Luo Family in the past few years was the main reason for the great change in Mother Luo's temperament.

In the past, Luo Qing was the director of the supply and demand cooperative with a high salary and status. When everyone wanted to buy something, they had to curry favor with her family.

But since the reform, the supply and demand cooperative had gradually fall. Her man was later fired by the supply and demand cooperative. Many people became rich day by day because they went out to do business, while Luo Family went downhill.

Those who flattered her in the past were now making fun of her in turn. Mother Luo was someone with a strong-front. How can she bear these attitude.

She urged her man to do business, but Luo Qing was conservative and unwilling to take risks. So the two often quarreled over various trivialities.

Living such days, Mother Luo's character became mean day by day.

"Mom, what are you doing? My family didn't provoke you, how can you be so vicious?"

Qiao Dong He could endure her mother-in-law criticizing and tormenting her. Hearing her curse her family, she couldn't bear it anymore.

But after saying this, she immediately regretted it. Her mother-in-law would definitely not let her off!

Sure enough, the word 'vicious' turned Mother Luo into a cat whose tail was stepped on. Her fur immediately exploded: "I am vicious. You lowly b*tch, I...you are pregnant now, I can't beat you. But I, I can report you to your school! I want to see how your school teaches a student who disrespects mother-in-law like you!"

Saying that, she jumped off the bed, changed her clothes, and rushed out.

Qiao Dong He mentally knew thing were turning bad.

Her mother-in-law can torment however she want at home. At most, she will lose face in this building. But if she goes to school, she will really be unable to live as a decent human being!

And being reported by her mother-in-law like this will definitely have an impact on her credits!

Qiao Donghe didn't even think about it and reached out to pull her mother-in-law: "Mom, I was wrong. Don't report, I beg you!"

"Beg? It's too late!"

Mother Luo forcefully pulled her hand away. When the other party's hand was reaching out to stop her, Mother Luo pushed her hard—

Qiao Dong He slipped. With a scream, her whole body fell heavily to the ground!

Her stomach instantly hurt. There was something gushing out between her thighs.

She stretched out her hand to feel. Blood was on her hand!

Qiao Dong He's face completely drained. She wanted to get up, but she was so weak that she couldn't!

She had to ask her mother-in-law for help: "Mom, my stomach hurts so much. Go and get someone to take me to the hospital!"

Mother Luo was startled when she saw Qiao Dong He fall. She was worried that her son would make trouble with her when he came back as well as Qiao Family backing her daughter-in-law.

But when she saw Qiao Dong He bleeding from below, an idea suddenly flashed in her heart: If this baby is gone, wouldn't it be possible to have another child? For the next child, she must force her to drink the secret recipe for birthing son. This way, their Luo Family's bloodline will be saved!

The more she thought about it, the more she felt it was a good idea.

So when Qiao Dong He asked her for help, she stared at her. Her expression didn't seem right: "Dong He, please bear with it. You are still young. Even if you don't have this baby, it will not affect birthing future baby!"

Qiao Dong He was stunned. Her voice trembled: "Mom, what do you mean?"

Mother Luo said: "Dong He, don't blame Mom for being cruel. Your baby is a daughter. If you give birth to a daughter, your man's bloodline will go extinct. That's why, aborted this child. When you have another child, Mom guarantee you will definitely give birth to a chubby son!"

Qiao Dong He looked at her mother-in-law as if someone had thrown a basin of ice water in the middle of cold December winter.

So frigid that she couldn't control her trembling.
