Chapter 1621: Not Sticking or Relying

There are small trees blooming, and there are old trees sprouting.

"Hey, I see an old man at Second Aunt's place, staying there all day, and the two of them chat very happily. You say... they don't have anything going on, right?"

Si Mei buried her face in the bowl, but didn't forget to mutter gossip.

"You're so busy, and you still have time to go to Second Aunt's place?" San Li looked at her good sister in surprise.

"It's not far, just a few steps. I stayed at Second Aunt's place for half an hour when I came back today, that old man was drinking water there, and they were very uncomfortable when I went. Actually, that old man was there before, but I didn't feel it. In the past year, it's getting weirder and weirder, I guess their feelings are warming up."

"I found out why you are still so idle?" Yi Cheng frowned. "Don't be like those long-tongued women, talking about right and wrong all day."

Si Mei muttered reluctantly: "That's our Second Aunt, can't I care about Second Aunt?"

"Yes, you can." Old Qiao drank his wine, picking trouble daily, always liking to find trouble for Yi Cheng.

"Shufang is also not easy, now the children are all grown up, Zhiqiang has been gone for so many years, it's quite good to find a companion. Why haven't I found one? It's because you dragged my hind legs back then. Once you heard that there were a few drag-oil bottles in the family, even the best people didn't dare to live with me."

Er Qiang sighed: "Listening to what you mean, you still want to find another one?"

Old Qiao looked at Wang Yan eating vegetables, Ma Suqin holding the child, and Ma Suqin's eldest son, then looked at Yi Cheng, Er Qiang, San Li, and Si Mei staring straight at him, and responded very sensibly.

"I've lived for so many years, drinking and playing mahjong every day, comfortable and comfortable, what am I looking for?" He drank a sip of wine, clamped the vegetables, as if very casual. "I've been laid off for three years, and people's pensions are adjusted every year. Shouldn't my living expenses as an old father also rise a little?

That Xu Funian is already shaking, wearing a suit, driving a Santana, and holding a big brother phone, I don't believe he can earn more money than my children!"

At the point of excitement, the old guy slammed the table, looking like he was unconvinced.

"Last year, the annual income of urban employees in Su Province was 2,300, which is 200 yuan a month. Two hundred yuan is not to say that it supports such a big family, but it is more than enough to support three or four people. Now we give you 160 every month. Go to Jin Ling to find it, and half of those who can earn this much don't exist. Er Qiang and Si Mei also secretly give you money, and you have asked Ma Suqin several times, giving you hundreds, don't think I don't know.

With so much money, you don't have to buy anything at home, and you don't have to worry about anything. You shout that you can't eat hot rice, the house is deserted, and Wang Yan even bought a shop, planning to open a restaurant nearby. You still say you don't have enough money to spend? Qiao Zuwang, what do you want to do?"

Yi Cheng fired with full force, without mercy.

Regarding the living expenses of Qiao Zuwang, Qiao Yi Cheng has absolute dominance. On this matter, no one will interrupt, and no one will give Qiao Zuwang extra hope.

This kind of accurate monthly living expenses must not be used to spoil Qiao Zuwang, and cannot be given too much. As for how much to ask for privately, that is another matter. But giving too much privately is also too much.

It was just that Ma Suqin couldn't open her face, and when the old guy went to see his grandson, he took the opportunity to open his mouth. Ma Suqin, this older daughter-in-law, couldn't refuse no matter what.

However, it could be considered that Old Qiao still wanted some face, and didn't always ask Ma Suqin for money. If it wasn't really short of money, he wouldn't ask Ma Suqin for money. If he asked once, he would be criticized once, and Old Qiao couldn't stand the nagging.

But on the other hand, although Old Qiao had been thinking about Wang Yan's money to buy meat since Wang Yan was a child, in fact, the old guy had never asked Wang Yan for money directly, and had never opened his mouth to Sanli. On this point, Old Qiao could be considered reasonable and didn't trouble Wang Yan too much.

"Is Wang Yan's restaurant opened for me? It's clearly because you guys disliked the house being small, the stove wasn't enough, and wanted a spacious place, that's why the restaurant was opened. Then he opened the restaurant, can't I, this father-in-law, go and eat a hot meal? Can't I invite friends to drink together?"

"Avoiding the heavy and taking the light! Did you eat or not? If you have the ability, don't go and eat?"

"My son-in-law opened the restaurant, why shouldn't I go? I will go! I will go!"

Qiao Yicheng was so angry he laughed: "Alright, stop arguing unreasonably. Anyway, no matter what, it's impossible to raise living expenses, just give up this idea. Come, child, eat more meat, don't always pick those two dishes in front of you."

He picked vegetables for Ma Suqin's eldest son. The child was older, of course, he had his own thoughts, and it was really hard to have too much sense of belonging to the Old Qiao family. Although the people in the Old Qiao family were not bad to him, the child's mind was sensitive and he thought too much. But his emotions were stable, there was no intention of confrontation, just being a bit wilted at the Old Qiao family, and it was nothing.

After all, Erqiang was quite good to this eldest son, and there was really no bias. Of course, more importantly, there was a lot of money, and there was no deviation in the distribution of family resources. As for the father's love problem, the eldest son didn't really need it that much later.

Old Qiao glared at the eldest son, and turned to ask Simei: "What did that old man do before? How many children in the family..."

The topic shifted very smoothly, and everyone was used to it, and there was no special expression...

"He was a teacher before, and had four children..."

Near the construction site in Shamao Lane, Qi Weimin said with some helplessness about the old man's news, "Our family is now in chaos, and you still have the leisure, not attending school, not dealing with so many jobs, running out here to watch the renovation."

"I designed the renovation myself, the materials were all decided by me, to be honest, I really put more effort into this than in the company, so I have to come and see it often."

Wang Yan greeted with a smile, "Then what do you think."

"My mother is not easy either. You say the three of us siblings have things to do, and the other two can't come back once in ten days or half a month, and there's no one around to talk to, so these days are too boring. I can understand wanting someone who knows cold and heat to accompany her and talk, and take care of each other. But Weiyi and Xiaoya don't agree, you didn't see it, if I hadn't stopped them, Weiyi would have beaten that Uncle Ma."

Qi Weimin sighed when he talked about this, because his mother's old tree sprouted new buds, the family was in a mess, and relatives and neighbors had heard about it and were watching the fun, and he had a headache.

"There are quite a few people looking for an old partner these years, it's nothing." Wang Yan patted Qi Weimin's arm, "No need to worry about others laughing or anything, life is your own."

"So you support it too?"

"What are you saying, there's no room for me to oppose the second aunt's business."

"That's too much, you have great power, and you can also be the master of our family. If you support it, Weiyi and Xiaoya definitely won't have anything to say."

To a certain extent, Qi Weimin was right, because Qi Weiyi and Qi Xiaoya were working at Juewei.

Although the second aunt and Qi Weimin strongly opposed them working at the company, they had a big quarrel with the family and resolutely went to Juewei to work. They were both in leadership positions and earned a lot. Of course, they didn't abuse their power, Wang Yan had communicated with them.

Wang Yan's deterrent power naturally didn't need to be said, even if they had this thought, they absolutely didn't dare to cause trouble for Wang Yan. Perhaps they might lose themselves a little bit in the process of working, but they would also periodically wake up. After all, there were big gatherings, and they were all eating together. Wang Yan asked a few simple questions about work, and they were honest, their eyes clear.

"Then Weiyi and Xiaoya are likely to say I'm wrong."

"They don't have the guts, they see you like a mouse seeing a cat, you are much more useful than me, this big brother. You still have great deterrent power."

"I'm the boss."

"It's not just the relationship of the boss, it's more about your glorious deeds in the past, the pressure on them is too great."

Wang Yan shook his head amusedly: "It sounds like I'm like a hooligan, don't you know how decent I am?"

"Hey, speaking of decent, didn't we say we had a girlfriend when we ate last time? How is it now?"

"What do you think?"

"Where should I think?" Qi Weimin shook his head.

Wang Yan turned back to the car and took out a newspaper, pointing to one of the places, "Take a look."

"Editor Qiao Yicheng? What's wrong?"

"Look at this newspaper office, is it compatible with Qiao Yicheng?"

"Isn't he from Jin Ling TV Station? Oh... is it called Ye Xiaolang?" Qi Weimin laughed, "I said the name sounded familiar, is this helping his girlfriend with homework?"

"I don't think so, his name appears in other units, then how do the leaders and colleagues in his own unit see it?"

Qi Weimin let out another long "oh": "I remember, Song Qingyuan had some complaints about this Ye Xiaolang before. At that time, I thought it was because she played tricks with the microphone, he was unhappy and looked at people with colored glasses. If it's really what you said, then this Ye Xiaolang's character is problematic."

"Who knows, it just so happens that Song Qingyuan is treating us to dinner tonight, let's ask when the time comes."

"He didn't look for me, so I won't go."

"I'm notifying you." Wang Yan waved his hand.

"Found a good restaurant again?" Qi Weimin asked with a smile.

Song Qingyuan had treated guests many times in the past two years, all looking for shops with good craftsmanship. Song Qingyuan had many friends, loved to eat, had no ambition, and was idle, so when he was free, he would take photos with his camera while looking for good restaurants everywhere.

Wang Yan nodded with a smile: "Said it's a newly opened Sichuan restaurant, quite authentic. This is really good, it's still drizzling today, eating something spicy to get angry, it's comfortable."

Undoubtedly, Ye Xiaolang is not a good match. She is a vain, material, and scheming person, and a person who wants to go abroad wholeheartedly.

And speaking of scheming, it's hard to imagine that she comes from a family that is not wealthy and also favors boys over girls. She does housework badly and can't cook. It is very likely that she did it on purpose. As long as she shows it once, and doesn't have the idea of wanting to learn, then this matter naturally falls to Qiao Yicheng.

Of course, if you really want to talk about it, compared to the later gold diggers, if you only compare who is worse, she can also be called a good person.

But no matter what, Wang Yan should say it...

"I know, she didn't steal my manuscript."

Faced with Wang Yan and Qi Weimin's questions, Qiao Yicheng answered like this.

Qi Weimin simply couldn't look: "Do you want to see Old Song's expression before speaking?"

Qiao Yicheng looked over with murderous eyes, only to see Song Qingyuan shaking his legs and making faces.

"What are you pretending for?"

Song Qingyuan didn't care about him, and revealed it directly, "It was stealing Qiao Yicheng's manuscript, and she even hung an editor's name for Yicheng. It would have been better if she didn't hang it. Qiao Yicheng was scolded for a long time after hanging it, and his colleagues didn't have good eyes for him. It's useless even if you are the brother-in-law of the big boss."

"He's still stupid, finding reasons for others, saying that this Ye Xiaolang had no choice, it wasn't on purpose. Bullshit! Nonsense! I read that manuscript, it's almost exactly the same, not many words were changed. Qiao Yicheng said it was taken with a camera..."

"Alright!"

"What's alright? Wasn't she on purpose when she took it? Wasn't she on purpose when she handed it in? It's just that you were fascinated by her and believed the ghost stories she told."

"I said alright!" Qiao Yicheng stopped him louder.

Song Qingyuan shrugged at Wang Yan and Qiao Yicheng, with "You see, he's like this when you talk about it, there's really nothing to do with him" written on his face.

Wang Yan poured wine for Qiao Yicheng with a smile: "Actually, I also wanted to say a few words to persuade you to be cautious. But you are so firm, so I won't say more. Come, Big Brother, drink, drink."

"No, Wang Yan, I really think we should be cautious." Song Qingyuan said.

Qi Weimin said: "Yicheng has already taken a fancy to it, what else can we say? Drink."

Song Qingyuan raised his glass: "Did you hear clearly, Qiao Yicheng? Neither Wang Yan nor Qi Weimin are optimistic. Just you... oh, anyway, it's no big deal if you suffer a loss and get cheated, you'll understand later, come, come, drink, drink."

Qiao Yicheng of course understood what Song Qingyuan meant, he said: "She doesn't know our family's situation yet."

Song Qingyuan laughed, didn't say anything, and sneered at Qiao Yicheng's words. Neither Wang Yan nor Qi Weimin said anything, raising their glasses to drink.

On the contrary, Qiao Yicheng was unhappy: "You don't believe it?"

Qi Weimin said: "Whether you believe it or not has no meaning, you'll know sooner or later. What kind of person she is, we can only say clearly later."

Song Qingyuan gloated: "Anyway, your brother-in-law is here, so it's fine, just follow your heart. I'll put it here, you'll have enough to suffer later, there will be many troublesome things."

"Alright, alright, stop talking, how it turns out still depends on Big Brother's own getting along, and we can't say it so decisively. Brother Weimin is right, the main thing is getting along in the future. Drink, drink."

So Wang Yan, Qi Weimin, and Song Qingyuan were happy eating and drinking.

Only Qiao Yicheng was unhappy, his true love was denied.

But everyone didn't pay attention to him, because Song Qingyuan was right, Qiao Yicheng was not afraid of being wrong...
