Chapter 1995: Too ‘Filial’

Chapter 1995: Too ‘Filial’

Upon seeing this short message prompt, Ding Jiayi wasn’t happy at all. She had to force this fifty thousand yuan out of her. Because of Zijin, Old Qiao was injured and had to be hospitalized. According to reason, Zijin should fork out this sum of money on her own initiative. She shouldn’t have to ask for it.

What was more infuriating was that Qiao Nan, the wretched girl who was lacking conscience, forked out fifty thousand yuan without saying a word, but Qiao Zijin was still delaying payment until she lost her temper. The difference between taking the initiative and being forced was too big.

She thought of how well she had treated Qiao Zijin over the years and how she only valued Qiao Zijin instead of Qiao Nan. Qiao Zijin was young and had money in her hands, but she was unwilling to take good care of Old Qiao. What should she do in the future…

The more Ding Jiayi thought about it, the more panicked she became. “Zijin, this won’t do. I don’t mean to urge you, but I’d like to reason with you. You’re just forty-two years old this year. You yourself said that you’re still young. The retirement age set by the country is fifty years old. While you’re still young, go and find a job. It’s alright if the salary is lower as long as there are some retirement funds.”

It would definitely not work if she kept on eating but not working.

As long as Zijin found a job, had a certain amount of income every month, and received some retirement funds from the company, her expenses would no longer be a problem. Even if the income was lower, it was better than Zijin staying at home all day and only having an outflow of cash.

Perhaps when Zijin was working and had income, she might even be more filial toward her and Old Qiao.

In short, Zijin had to have an income to resolve her panic. Zijin hadn’t been working. The money in her hands was decreasing day by day. Not only was Zijin feeling panicked, but she herself was as well.

Qiao Zijin’s face changed. Did her mom really think that she could control her life just because she addressed her as mom? So what if she didn’t have a job? As long as her parents didn’t burden her when they were old and went to Qiao Nan if they were sick, all was good. Even if she didn’t work, the 1.6 million yuan in her hands was enough for her to eat and drink until she died.

She could obviously lead an easier life. Why did she have to find a job and be exhausted? The money earned each month wasn’t as high as the interest the bank provided. She wasn’t stupid.

“Mom, let’s talk about this in the future. I’m worried since Dad’s in such a state now. You’re also tired from taking care of him alone. Let’s take turns to take care of him. Oh right, Mom. Zhai Sheng accompanied Qiao Nan to the hospital today to visit Dad. What do you think is the relationship between Qiao Nan and the Zhai family?” What made Qiao Zijin upset was still Qiao Nan’s relationship with the Zhai family.

Even if Zhai Sheng accompanied Qiao Nan over today, she didn’t feel that things were really as rumored and that Zhai Sheng was going to marry Qiao Nan. Didn’t big families like to acknowledge god relatives? What if Zhai Sheng was only recognizing Qiao Nan as his godsister? She didn’t even have the chance to marry Zhai Sheng. It was already lucky for Qiao Nan to have the chance to know Zhai Sheng.

Marrying Zhai Sheng? Wasn’t Qiao Nan afraid of being crushed to death by this huge blessing?

“How do I know?!” Ding Jiayi felt irritated. Especially when Qiao Zijin changed the topic and didn’t agree to find a job, Ding Jiayi’s mood became worse. “You saw today’s situation as well. I’m only concerned about your dad. From the start to the end, I didn’t say a word to that wretched girl. How would I know what her relationship with the Zhai family and Zhai Sheng is? Alright, stop thinking about these matters. You should think about when your dad will wake up.”

Ding Jiayi wasn’t in the mood at all now that her man was hospitalized. How would she think about Qiao Zijin and find ways to snatch over all of Qiao Nan’s good things for her?

Ding Jiayi sat on the edge of Qiao Dongliang’s bed. She was shocked for a while. Then, she said, “You’re right. I’m old and not in good health. I can’t possibly take care of your dad alone. Why don’t you go home and rest now and take over my shift at night? It shouldn’t be a problem for you to keep watch overnight, right?”

Qiao Zijin wanted to say that there was a problem. She would rather stay and take care of her dad now, who had not yet woken up and didn’t have any other needs other than sleep. It was tough to keep watch overnight. If her dad woke up and was in pain or needed to go to the toilet, it would be troublesome for her.

Thankfully, Qiao Zijin wasn’t a fool. As long as she was still counting on Ding Jiayi to help her take advantage of Qiao Nan, she had to continue coaxing Ding Jiayi and not fall out with her. “Sure, I’ll head back first then. Let me see if there are any free-range chickens. I’ll get one. Mom, you know I don’t know how to cook. After heading home later, brew some chicken soup to act as supplements for you and Dad.”

A chicken cost at least one to two hundred yuan. She felt the pinch.

Forget it. No pain, no gain. Her mom was already unhappy. If she didn’t fork out this small sum of money and her mom became biased toward Qiao Nan like her dad and treated her as her precious daughter, she would be done for.

“Yes. Be careful on the way back.”

“Mom, I’ll get going first.”

After Qiao Zijin left, Qiao Dongliang opened his eyes. Ding Jiayi leaned forward. “Old Qiao, why didn’t you say that you had woken up? You even got me to send Zijin away. When did you wake up? Are you thirsty? Do your injuries hurt?”

It was only when Ding Jiayi sat next to Qiao Dongliang did she realize that he was already awake. As to when Qiao Dongliang was awake, Ding Jiayi had no idea at all. Qiao Dongliang wanted Qiao Zijin to leave first. Even if Ding Jiayi didn’t understand it, she had done so.

“When did I wake up?” Qiao Dongliang asked himself. “I don’t remember. However, I heard quite a bit of your conversation with her. A few months ago when Zijin was hospitalized, I remember I was so anxious that I couldn’t sleep for the first few nights and had insomnia for a long time. I didn’t expect a few months later, she would be the one to send me to the same hospital. She couldn’t even bear to part with fifty thousand yuan for me, her birth dad. Ding Jiayi, we have really raised Zijin this daughter ‘well’.”

Filial?

Zijin took so much money from Nan Nan but couldn’t bear to spend fifty thousand yuan on him. She didn’t even feel guilty for his fracture and hospitalization. Heh, this was Ding Jiayi’s so-called good daughter. She was really too ‘filial’!

As the anesthetics wore off a little, Qiao Dongliang woke up and heard such a conversation. As a father, he was really unwilling to see Qiao Zijin, his daughter, now.
