Adored Koi in the ’70s

Chapter 117



Once these words were out, everyone was shocked!

Split the family??

Why mention separation out of the blue?

Qiao Zhen Guo was the most shocked and anxious one: "Mom, after the separation, you and Dad would live with us, right?"

It didn't matter whether the family was separated or not; he must live with his parents!

When Wan Chun Ju heard her man's words, her heart skipped a beat. She wanted to reach out to halt him, but afraid of being seen. So her butt fidgeted around on the seat in angst!

After the separation, if the in-laws live with them first branch, what was the difference between separating and not separating?

Her mother-in-law had been over her head all these years. She had long wanted to be in charge of the house. It was rare that her mother-in-law had taken the initiative to mention family separation. Why did her man ask such stupid question?

Qiao Xiu Zhi noticed Eldest Daughter-in-law's expression and indifferently spoke: "I have discussed it with your dad. This old couple will live by ourselves. Won't follow anyone.

Everyone was thunderstruck when they heard this.

Qiao Zhen Guo was anxious like a 40-year-old child: "Dad, Mom, I'm the eldest in the family, how can you not live with me? Is it because you find my wife too stupid?"

Wan Chun Ju: ? ? ?

What did he mean by calling stupid? Why did she get dragged in out of the blue?

This dead man simply pissed her off!

Qiao Xiu Zhi rolled her eyes, "No. I think you two are both stupid. I'm worried that my life will short a few years if I live with you! Don't talk about it. You are almost forty years old. You should learn independence! With this family separation, you will take your son and daughters to the capital!"

To the capital!!

Today's bombs dropped one after another. Everyone was stunned!

Qiao Zhen Guo anxiously spoke again: "Mom, am I going alone with the children? Aren't you and Dad going too?"

Qiao Xiu Zhi responded, "You're not alone. There's also your wife!"

When Qiao Zhen Guo heard the response, he looked back at his wife.

Although he didn't say anything, the expression on his face made it clear- he might as well be alone. This made Wan Chun Ju's face flushed again with irk!

Qiao Xiu Zhi continued: "The two of you take your children to the capital to rent a house. Then rent a street food shop to make a living. As for little Dong Yun, send her to the choir!"

Qiao Zhen Guo scratched his head and asked, "What if the street food shop lose money? Dad, Mom, why don't you come with us?"

From his birth to the present, he had never left his parents. Except for the matter of marrying a wife which he made the decision himself, the other things were arranged by his parents.

Therefore, when hearing his parents freeing their hands and no longer manage, Qiao Zhen Guo felt very lost.

Qiao Xiu Zhi said with a stern face: "Your dad and I are both in our 60s. Can't we enjoy life. Do you want us to run up and down with you until we are exhausted?"

When the three Qiao brothers heard this, they shouted in unison, "Mom, we didn't mean that!"

Qiao Zhen Guo looked even more frightened: "Mom, I didn't mean that. I just wanted you and Dad to follow our first branch. I'll give you the old age care!"

Qiao Zhen Jun spoke: "In fact, the society is different now. Parents don't have to follow Eldest Brother. I can also support Dad and Mom!"

Lin Hui softly followed up: "That's right. Dad, Mom, Da Qiao and the other children like you two very much. Come and live with us!"

Seeing Lin Hui speak, Wan Chun Ju quickly interjected, "Yes, no matter who you are with, it is good. You can't live alone no matter what. Otherwise, if it spreads out, people will think that we, the younger generation aren't filial!"

Qiao Zhen Min said: "Forget it. You all have wives. You can pity me, a lonely young man. So Dad and Mom should follow me!"

The few brothers argued over who their parents should follow. Unlike other families who didn't want to take in their parents, everyone was scrambling to support them.

This made Qiao Xiu Zhi and Xue Chuan very happy. As for whether their daughter-in-law really wanted to keep them, they didn't care.

In the end, they insisted on living by themselves. Now they were in good health and want to life of two-people-world.

Over the past few decades, they have been working hard at first for their livelihood and later for their children. Now that their children and grandchildren have grown up, they can finally take a break.

As for why first branch went to the capital to develop instead of in Yunlai Town, it was for little Dong Yun.

Second, it was because they predicted that when Da Qiao and other children gradually take exam for college, they would most likely stay in the capital to develop. Just like Qiao Dong He. Second and fifth branch would most likely go to the capital to develop for the sake of their children.

In this case, it was better to let first branch go to the capital to open a street food shop from the beginning. If they can gain a firm foothold there, it is best. If not, it isn't too late to come back.

So it was settled.

It took Qiao Family two days to divide all the property clearly,

In the past, Qiao Zhen Jun had separated off from his family. But when he was paralyzed, all his family's food was provided by the old house. So after the recovery, the money he earned was always handed to parents despite not moving back to the old house.

In other words, he rejoined when he was paralyzed.

Qiao Family had made a lot of money over the years. Excluding Da Qiao's house, they bought a total of three houses in the town.

Now the few children need to invest in development, they decided to sell all the house and then divide the money into six parts. Putting aside them two elders, the two married daughters also got a share.

As for the house and land in Qili Village, they will not be sold. There were the root of their old Qiao Family.

Unless the mountains and rivers were exhausted, they would absolutely not sell it!

In this way, only Da Qiao's house was left in the town.

As for the Good Luck store, first branch completely pulled out of it.

Second branch calculates all the profits and gave it to first branch. From now on, the store was owned by second branch.

——

All the houses in the town were sold. The few branches kept fighting for the two elders to live with them. Qiao Xiu Zhi and Xue Chuan refused again.

That night, Qiao Xiu Zhi went to Da Qiao: "Da Qiao, Grandfather and Grandmother are still worried about your eldest uncle and their family. So when they are going up north, Grandfather and Grandmother plan to live in your courtyard dwelling. Take it as minding the courtyard dwelling for you in advance. Once you get married in the future, Grandfather and Grandmother will move out."

Da Qiao hugged her grandmother's arm and said in a soft voice, "Grandmother, what are you talking about? No matter if I marry or not, you don't have to move out! Uncle and the others can also live in my courtyard dwelling!"

The house will be damaged faster if there is no one to live in and take care of. Her courtyard dwelling in the capital was currently taken care of by someone under Huo Family's request. It would be best if her grandfather and grandmother could live there.

As for Eldest Uncle's family living there, she didn't mind.

She didn't buy the courtyard dwelling herself. It was gifted to her from Mao Family, so she didn't take this asset seriously. If she could help her relatives, she would be very happy.

Qiao Xiu Zhi didn't think so: "No need. It's enough that Grandfather and Grandmother live in it. As for your eldest uncle's accommodation, let them rent a house."

Rise in rice, there's gratitude. Fight for rice, there's feud.

She didn't want first branchy to rely on Da Qiao. Not to mention that the family was separated now. They shouldn't live with Da Qiao.

Da Qiao knew that everything she did had her reasons, so she didn't insist.

Father and son, Qiao Zhen Guo and An Ping knew that they were going to rent a house. They had no problem.

The courtyard dwelling wasn't theirs in the first place. Now that they were separated, they really shouldn't live in the courtyard dwelling.

However, when Wan Chun Ju found out, she was so anxious that her mouth got sore!

She was getting older and didn't want to leave the familiar place. But her husband and children have to go to the capital. She definitely don't want to be left alone in their hometown. So she can only follow even if she doesn't want to.

It wasn't just starting over when they get to the capital. She heard that buying green onions in that place was a bit more expensive than here. She was struggling with her family's money; thinking about how to save it.

After pondering, her thought came to Da Qiao's courtyard dwelling.

If their first branch can live in Da Qiao's courtyard dwelling, they don't need to rent a house. This way, they can save a lot of money every month.

But who knew that before she could speak to Da Qiao, she heard her mother-in-law's decision to let them rent a house. How could she not be in anxious?

As soon as her mother-in-law left, she ran out of the room and latched onto Qiao Zhen Guo and uttered, "Zhen Guo, how can Mother do this? Da Qiao's courtyard dwelling is sitting there. Why can't it be lent to us?"

Qiao Zhen Quo gave her a strange gaze and replied, "Didn't you hear it when you were hiding inside? We have already split. The courtyard dwelling is owned by Da Qiao. Why should it be lent to us? Wife, you are so shameless. At this age, you're always think about taking advantage of Da Qiao!"

Wan Chun Ju's face turned into a pig's liver color at once: "Who said I want to take advantage? Am I not thinking about our first branch. We're going to the capital to start anew and will need money for every needle and thread. Aren't I thinking about saving when we can? At most, we'll give her a little money every month and rent it from her!"

She was thinking how Da Qiao was their niece. Even if they gave her money, she would be embarrassed to accept it. In this way, they could live in the big house for free as planned.

Initially, she took the opportunity to persuade her man. However, the sound of Gu Gu and Pi Pi's arguing sounded again from the yard at this moment.

The next moment, Qiao Zhen Guo darted out like a firecracker and soon disappeared.

Wan Chun Ju: "..."

She felt that her man had a problem with his brain. He didn't care about such an important thing at all. Instead he cared about two animals every day!

How vexing!

Qiao Zhen Guo rushed to the yard and found Gugu riding on Pi Pi's head at first sight. She was pecking at Pi Pi's head with her chicken beak.

Being pecked, Pi Pi whimpered. Still, he didn't force Gu Gu off by shaking.

Qiao Zhen Guo hurried over to mediate: "Gu Gu, come down quickly. If you have something to say, let's talk about it. You can't use action!"

Gu Gu raised her chicken head and called twice, as if she was filled with righteous indignation.

Qiao Zhen Guo walked over and spoke, "I know you're angry. Don't worry. Leave it to me. I'll lecture Pi Pi; won't let him betray you next time!"

"Gugu."

Recently, Gu Gu and Pi Pi were always fighting. To be precise, Gu Gu was hitting Pi Pi. No one knew what happened.

In order to find out the reason, Qiao Zhen Guo turned into Qiao Holmes Zhen Guo and searched everywhere to find the truth. Just yesterday, he finally found the truth!

It turned out that Pi Pi was in heat some time ago. He got together with a nearby female dog and made the other's belly bigger. Recently, the female dog brought a few puppies over to look for Pi Pi. Gu Gu knew about this and felt betrayed. So she often peck Pi Pi.

Qiao Zhen Guo turned his head to look at Pi Pi and earnestly spoke: "Pi Pi, you're at fault! You and Gu Gu have been together for so many years. How can you betray her?"

Pi Pi bowed his head and whimpered twice.

Qiao Zhen Guo continued to lecture: "I know that you dislike Gu Gu for being old and a nag. But you're a couple from young to old. Isn't my wife old and a nag? Have you seen me betray her?"

Gu Gu: ? ?

Wan Chun Ju who just came out and heard this:? ? ?

This afternoon, a man and a dog wailed in the Qiao's yard; scaring the nearby children to tears.

In the evening, everyone was very curious when they saw the chicken claw prints and nail scratch on Qiao Zhen Guo's face.

Qiao Zhen Guo really felt aggrieved. He was just there to mediate the feelings. How could he be beaten into a drowned dog state in the end?

Worse off than Pi Pi!

——

An Ping's college entrance examination score was only 250 points. He couldn't even get into the technical college. While Huo Chi got 590 points and became the top scorer!

Huo Hua Qing and Dai Shu Fang were over the moon. Especially Huo Hua Qing. He almost burst into tears.

When he was on the farm, he worried every day and night; fearing that his grandson would spend the rest of his life in the farm to reform through labor. Later, for the sake of his future, they were forced to choose to let him fake his death.

He never thought that they would be vindicated. Or that his grandson would become the top scorer in the college entrance examination!

A reporter went to Huo's house and the school Huo Chi attended to interview him. It was learn about his learning environment and ask him to share his learning methods. However, Huo Chi refused.

Huo Family wanted to invite relatives and friends to celebrate, but he refused.

Huo Family couldn't persuade him, so they had to give up.

After the initial liveliness calmed down, Huo Chi called Da Qiao and shared the good news with her.

Da Qiao was extremely happy: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, you are amazing! Your grades are so high. Doesn't it mean that you can go to any school you want?"

Huo Chi gave a low laugh at the other end: "Of course not. It isn't like you don't know that you have filled out the aspiration form before the college entrance examination. My file has been transferred to Jinghua University."

Having said that, if he want to go to other universities, the other universities' directors will definitely open the door to welcome him there!

Da Qiao's little head nodded: "You are right. I gone silly from happiness! Elder Brother Huo Chi, you said last time that you were applying for an information and communication major, right?"

Huo Chi responded: "Yes, it is this major. I think our country is far behind in this area. So I want to study this area and hope to contribute to our country in the future!"

Da Qiao said softly: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, your idea is wonderful. I support you!"

As soon as the voice fell, Huo Chi suddenly called out her name on the other end of the phone: "Qiao Nian Nian."

Da Qiao was a little puzzled why he suddenly called her name. Still, she answered: "I'm here, Elder Brother Huo Chi."

Huo Chi: "Qiao Nian Nian, I'm waiting for you at Jinghua University. Do your best, okay?"

He was eighteen years old this year. He already knew what was up with relationship. He also understood his feelings for Da Qiao.

It was just that Da Qiao was still young now. He will wait for her to grow up though. Wait for her to understand her heart.

Da Qiao thought he was trying to cheer herself to get admitted to Jinghua University, so she readily responded.

Then she asked him, "Elder Brother Huo Chi, are you coming to my house this summer?"

Huo Chi answered: "I won't go this year. I made an arrangement with a few classmates to go to the south to look around. I will bring you gifts when I come back!"

He heard that several cities in the south were developing very fast. So he wanted to go there and check it out.

Although Da Qiao felt a little lament in her heart, she still supported him: "Then I'll remember. If it wasn't for the college entrance examination this year, I really want to go with you, Elder Brother Huo Chi!"

They have spent the summer and winter vacations together in the past few years. She wasn't used to it when hearing him suddenly not coming.

Huo Chi uttered an double entendre: "There will be opportunities in the future!"

When they are together in the future, he will accompany her wherever she wants to go!

——

Before Qiao Family moved to the capital, there was good news from the capital; both Qiao Dong He and Luo Jun Liang were admitted to graduate school.

Qiao Dong He became a postgraduate student majoring in foreign languages ​​at the teacher college. Luo Jun Liang was admitted to the People's college's law major.

The two were clear about their future plans. Qiao Dong He will strive to stay in school to teach after graduation, while Luo Jun Lang want to go to the Law Office.

As for the marriage, it will be postponed for another two years.

Toward this matter, Luo Jun Liang's mom had strong objections!

She originally wanted Qiao Dong He to marry into Luo Family two years ago and then quickly have a child. However, Qiao Dong He was unwilling.

Since last year, there had been rumors of family planning in other places. Many people rushed to make people.

Luo Jun Liang's mom was at end's wit when she found out. She even bought a ticket to go to the capital and urge the two of them to quickly get married and have children.

However, Qiao Dong He refused again. The two woman separate on bad terms.

Fortunately, Luo Jun Liang wasn't a mommy's boy. On top of that, Luo Qing was also a reasonable person. So the young couple didn't break up because of this.

It was originally planned that the two would get married after they were admitted to postgraduate course. But because of Mother Luo, Qiao Dong He decided not to rush to get married after thinking it over and over again.

Once married, she will face the problem of being pushed to give birth. But right now, she just want to focus all her energy on her studies.

And neither of them had any financial resources at the moment. She wanted to wait until their economy is stable and at least have found jobs before considering having children.

Qiao Dong He's idea was approved by all Qiao Family's members except Wan Chun Ju.

Wan Chun Ju felt that women didn't need to study so many books. It was the right thing to get married and have children early. If it wasn't for her mother-in-law's pressure, she would definitely not let Qiao Dong He go to college!

There was another reason why she would be so opposed; after Luo Jun Liang's mom came back from the capital, she couldn't find support at home. So she ran to find Wan Chun Ju, hoping that she could put pressure on Qiao Dong He to get her married and have children quickly!

But she was destined to return without success. Because Wan Chun Ju was too unreliable and had no voice power in Qiao Family.

She really wanted Qiao Dong He to get married quickly, but Qiao Dong He didn't listen to her. No one in her family supported her!

In the end, she could only fume.

After hanging up the phone with Eldest Cousin Sister, Da Qiao asked her grandmother: "Grandmother, my eldest cousin sister's future mother-in-law doesn't seem to be easy to get along with. Do you think this will affect her relationship with her future brother-in-law in the future?"

Qiao Xiu Zhi combed her hair with a wooden comb: "There will definitely be an impact. It just depends on how they deal with it."

If it is handled well, the two will be able to move on. If it is not handled well, they may break up or even divorce in the future.

Da Qiao frowned and spoke, "Grandmother, since that's the case... why did you say Eldest Cousin Sister can observe it when she asked you if she should break up with him?"

"That's because Young Luo's attitude isn't bad so far. His father, Luo Qing, is a sensible person. There are more understanding people than muddled people in the family. So we can still look forward to this marriage."

Qiao Xiu Zhi looked at her granddaughter's shiny and smooth like black satin hair. Don't know how many people envied her black hair.

As she said that, she combed Da Qiao's hair into a plait: "And if this breakup happen, can you guarantee the next one your cousin finds will be free of conflict? There are no perfect people and things in this world. It's up to you how to choose."

Da Qiao turned around and hugged her grandmother. She coquettishly spoke, "Grandmother, you know a lot. I don't want to leave you and Grandfather."

Because first branch is going to the capital, her grandmother and grandfather have to go with them. While she will only enter the third year of high school in September. She won't be able to go to the capital to join her grandparents until next year.

Qiao Xiu Zhi's heart softened. She rubbed her smooth hair and responded, "Time flies quickly. You have to study hard. Grandmother and Grandfather are waiting for you in the capital."

"En-en."

Qiao Dong Ying didn't come back this summer vacation. Before the vacation, she called back and said that she wanted to find a part-time job in the provincial city.

Unexpectedly, three days before Qiao Family's first branch went to the capital, she came back.

And she had brought a man back.
