Chapter 1888: Feudalism

One was her birth mother and the other was her birth sister. She also had a foolish birth father. Hers was more than ten years, but Qiao Nan’s was decades. When comparing both of their experiences, Zhai Hua immediately felt balanced in her heart. She wasn’t that miserable, after all.

Zhai Hua unscrupulously found a feeling of balance from Qiao Nan, thus she decided to buy her a set of underwear. Zhai Hua felt that she had taken great advantage of Qiao Nan and Qiao Nan had suffered a great loss. If she couldn’t bear to part with her money for this set of underwear, then she was really a failure in life.

The underwear in her hands was snatched away. Qiao Nan didn’t expect to snatch it back. The women of the Zhai family were experts in this aspect. She was no match for them at all.

In the end, when the four women returned fully loaded, Qiao Nan and Jiajia had gained the most. Jiajia was first while Qiao Nan was second.

Upon thinking of the bags in the trunk and the ones that belonged to her, Qiao Nan felt strange. If she didn’t remember wrongly, before she married Zhai Sheng in her dreams, Auntie Miao seemed to have gone shopping with her like that as well. But back then, she was Auntie Miao’s future daughter-in-law. Now, she was nothing to the Zhai family.

Could it be that just because she had persuaded Sister Zhai Hua and brought Jiajia over from Qingshui Town, the Zhai family had such a high level of gratitude toward her that they were willing to buy a lot of things for her as if she was their daughter-in-law?

Once the four women reached home and before Qiao Nan could get out of the car, Zhai Sheng had already automatically opened the trunk, took all the items out, and carried them into the house.

Zhai Sheng silently sized them up and vaguely knew which ones belonged to Qiao Nan. Of course, Miao Jing had helped Zhai Sheng in cheating. When Miao Jing placed Qiao Nan’s bags in the trunk, she deliberately put them together in one pile and in the same corner.

Qiao Nan was still an ‘outsider’. How would she know what the Zhai family was thinking?

There were a few big shots in the quad in Ping Cheng. Besides the Zhai family, there was the Zhu family. Zhu Chengqi lost his wife when he was young. He lost his son when he was middle-aged, and within a few years, his father had also left. Zhu Chengqi didn’t remarry, and the Zhu family gave off the dying vibe. On the contrary, even if the Zhai family wasn’t especially blessed, they were a complete family.

Zhai Hua was married and had a daughter. Zhai Sheng wasn’t young anymore. As long as he was willing to get married, he could add another child to the family in a matter of minutes. The Zhai family compound, which had been quiet for many years, suddenly became lively. Quite a number of people noticed this, regardless if it was the southern quad or the northern quad.

“The Zhai family has returned to stay? I saw their car in and out several times today. The Zhai family is so lively.”

“It seems like it. The Zhai family has returned!” The Zhai family was the biggest star in their quad.

“Look, the people in the car are getting out. Eh? Four women? Since when did the Zhai family have so many people? Who is the extra woman behind Zhai Sheng? Does this mean that the Zhai family is going to hold a wedding soon? No wonder they have returned with everyone complete.”

That was true as well. The Zhai family’s roots were in Qingshui Town. Their relatives and friends were in Ping Cheng. If Zhai Sheng were to remarry and hold another wedding banquet, he would definitely have to return to Ping Cheng.

“Eh? Don’t you feel that the back view of that woman is quite familiar?” Among the four people who got out of the car, one was the wife of the old chief, one was their daughter, and the youngest one was obviously Zhai Hua’s daughter. Who was that middle-aged woman then? Her back view was too familiar.

“Do you feel that she looks similar to the younger daughter of the Qiao family?” That seemed to be the case.

“Now that you mention it, yes. She hasn’t stayed in the quad for many years. Every time she returned, she would leave in a hurry. If you didn’t remind me, I really couldn’t remember. However, based on the situation in the Qiao family, their daughter shouldn’t be so silly to have returned during this time. She has sacrificed so much for that family but isn’t married yet at this age. If she returned now, wouldn’t the Qiao family swallow her whole?”

Following the in-depth broadcast of the news, not only did the people from Ping Cheng understand the Qiao family more, but the people from the quad as well.

Everyone in the quad knew that the elder daughter from the Qiao family was successful, had high qualifications, and had married well. She could be considered a successful role model among the girls from the quad.

However, nobody expected that the outstanding performance of the elder daughter from the Qiao family was based on Qiao Nan’s sacrifice and suppression. The Qiao family was really something. Both of them were their daughters. Qiao Nan’s grades were obviously much better than Qiao Zijin’s when Qiao Nan was young, yet they let the one with the good grades drop out of school to provide for Qiao Zijin’s studies.

Many people said that based on Qiao Nan’s results, Qiao Nan might have been a graduate from a prestigious university had she continued her studies, unlike Qiao Zijin, who was a graduate from an average university.

Yes, because of Qiao Zijin’s and Ding Jiayi’s mischief and shamelessness, the people from the TV station were angered. They wanted to give them trouble? They wanted to see who would be creating trouble for whom in the end.

As such, the people from the TV station did a thorough check on the Qiao family. Then, they realized that the people from the Qiao family were light-fingered. It was alright if they didn’t do checks. Once they did, the affairs of the Qiao family could be played out as a long ethical drama.

They had seen biased people before, but not such biased ones.

It was obvious that the younger one had better grades. The Qiao family wasn’t lacking the money to provide for another child’s studies. Furthermore, the country implemented a nine-year compulsory education. However, the Qiao family didn’t even let Qiao Nan graduate from junior high school. At the age of sixteen, she was forced to drop out of school to work and earn tuition fees for Qiao Zijin. Such parents were really unheard of.

As soon as the news was broadcasted, a group of parents started scolding them. They were worried that their own child didn’t like to study and couldn’t achieve good grades. If their child didn’t want to study, they would use all sorts of ways to make him or her attend school. However, there were parents who had a child that they didn’t have to worry much about, but they didn’t cherish her. They didn’t even give her the opportunity to study.

If they really couldn’t afford it, why did they give birth to two? Was the existence of the second child purely to serve the firstborn for life? What kind of strange parents were they? They had failed to appreciate what happiness really meant.

The more the TV station exposed, the worse the reputation of the Qiao family in Ping Cheng was. Not only was the Qiao family’s reputation in the quad tarnished, but their interpersonal relationships were also damaged as well. Many people in the quad felt ashamed to have the Qiao family as their neighbor. It was already the twenty-first century. Why were there such feudalistic and biased people?
