Chapter 493: Singing and harmonizing, Qiao Zuwang falls out
Qiao Zuwang's words also shocked Zhou Chen.
He has seen many shameless people, but this is the first time he has seen someone like Qiao Zuwang, who took the initiative to 'give' his daughter in front of his daughter for his work.
You can be shameless, but you can't be shameless to this extent, right?
Qiao Sanli was so angry that her head was smoking. It was true that she liked Zhou Chen, but she had never thought of using this method to date Zhou Chen.
If Qiao Zuwang did this, how could she hold her head high in front of Zhou Chen in the future?
"Dad, you are simply crazy. Brother Zhou Chen, you must not listen to my dad. He is just talking nonsense after drinking too much."
Qiao Zuwang did not dare to say harsh words to Zhou Chen, but he was very cruel to his daughter.
"You little girl, I'm looking for a good in-law's family for you. The Zhou family is the best family in Shamao Lane. Zhou Chen is the top scholar. Now he's studying for a bachelor's degree. He will be a big leader in the future.
, it’s your blessing to be able to fall in love with someone, don’t be in the midst of blessings and not know your blessings.”
Qiao Sanli was so angry that she couldn't speak. She naturally knew how unreliable her father was, but she never thought that she was still standing here and said such shameless words one after another.
But no matter how hateful Qiao Zuwang was, he was her father after all. She really couldn't say anything unpleasant, but she just shed tears of anger.
Seeing Qiao Sanli crying in anger, Zhou Chen was filled with rage.
There was no such thing as love at first sight for Qiao Sanli, but they had known each other for ten years, and it was no exaggeration to say that they were childhood sweethearts.
And each of them kind of understood what the other meant, but they didn't show it because they were both in school.
Anyway, in Zhou Chen's heart, he had already regarded Qiao Sanli as his own woman, so he couldn't bear to see his woman being humiliated. Even if the person who bullied her was her father, he couldn't bear it.
But being angry is what makes him angry, and he will not be carried away by anger. After all, Qiao Zuwang is also Sanli's father, and his relationship with Sanli is not enough for Sanli to ignore Qiao Zuwang.
"Uncle Qiao, you really have a sharp eye. I really have a crush on Sanli, and I also thought about pursuing her after graduating from Sanli University."
Hearing this, Qiao Zuwang suddenly narrowed his eyes with laughter. This kid said this, which proves that what happened today is done.
If you fall in love with my daughter, then I am my father-in-law. How dare you, my son-in-law, not listen to my father-in-law?
As for Qiao Sanli, she was originally angry and aggrieved, but after hearing Zhou Chen's words, she was immediately moved.
She knew that she had deep feelings for Zhou Chen, and she also knew that Zhou Chen was very kind to her, but she had never seen Zhou Chen openly express it.
Now that Zhou Chen said this in front of her father, it must be sincere, which filled her heart with joy and shyness.
"Xiao Zhou, you are discerning. You are really discerning. Our Sanli is definitely the best choice for someone who is smart, sensible, diligent, gentle, and a good wife and mother."
At first, he still called Zhou Chen by his name very politely, but after he confirmed that Zhou Chen had thoughts about his daughter, he immediately changed the name from Zhou Chen to Xiao Zhou.
It can also be seen from this that this person is really pushing the envelope and taking advantage of the situation.
"Yes, yes, Uncle Qiao is right." Zhou Chen repeatedly agreed.
Although it was weird to talk to his future father-in-law about such a thing face to face, Zhou Chen still did it, and he was going to do it in the future anyway.
Qiao Zuwang was already full of confidence. He chuckled and said, "Xiao Zhou, is there no problem with my work?"
"ah?"
Zhou Chen pretended to be surprised and asked: "Work? What kind of work?"
Qiao Zuwang became anxious when he heard this: "Is it just a matter of joining Chenxing Textile Factory as a cadre? I don't want to be the deputy director or manager. I will just be the workshop director and the person in charge of warehouse management. This will be good for you."
It should be a trivial matter, right?"
Zhou Chen had a bitter look on his face: "Uncle Qiao, I definitely want to help with this matter, but you also know that I am just a medical student. Although the factory is run by my father, recruitment is not
, and it’s not him alone who has the final say.”
"Besides, if you go to the factory and people find out about my relationship with Sanli, they will definitely gossip about you behind your back."
"No, Uncle Qiao, you are a well-known hard-working and honest person in Shamao Alley. If you are allowed to be talked about behind your back, it will insult your reputation. This is absolutely unacceptable."
Hey, didn't you say you are a diligent person? Then I will use this word to block you.
Qiao Zuwang suddenly looked constipated and cursed Zhou Chen for being ignorant. He wished that someone knew about Zhou Chen and his daughter. In that case, he could walk away from Chenxing Textile Factory in the future.
Reputation? Fame is nothing.
He wanted to refute Zhou Chen, but he thought that these were what he had just said. If he refuted it at this time, it would be a slap in his own face.
He wants both job and face, especially in front of his daughter and 'future son-in-law'.
So he said cautiously: "Then you can let me in first, and you can wait two years before making your relationship public. Anyway, you are both in school now, and the country encourages late marriage and late childbearing, so it won't delay your good things."
Even though he could say such things, Zhou Chen was unable to complain.
Qiao Sanli said angrily: "Dad, can you stop talking nonsense and leave quickly?"
Qiao Zuwang also said angrily: "You kid, why do I want to find a job? It's not just for you brats. Look at your elder brother, who is in his twenties. He doesn't even work, but he only knows how to study.
Your second brother lost his good job, and now it’s difficult to support himself. And you, your college tuition..."
"Dad, my college tuition is free, and I earn all other expenses by doing part-time jobs."
Qiao Sanli didn't give her father any face, and exposed Qiao Zuwang's lies on the spot, making Qiao Zuwang look embarrassed.
"Okay, you are awesome, I won't tell you, I will tell Xiao Zhou."
As he spoke, he pitifully said to Zhou Chen: "Xiao Zhou, you are still young, so you may not understand uncle very well. Sanli's mother passed away early, and I took care of five children by myself. It's hard work. I make money."
Why, isn’t it just to give your children a good future?”
"You see, I'm already so old and I'm about to retire. If it wasn't for my children, why would I still have to work and suffer at this age? But my youngest son, Qiqi, is only thirteen years old this year. I can't do it without making money.
? There are still several sons who want to get married, and daughters who want to get married, which all cost money..."
He said a lot, and Zhou Chen's heart was filled with excitement. If Qiao Zuwang had been placed in a few decades, he would have been able to get a place with his eloquence.
They talked for seven or eight minutes. Finally, Qiao Zuwang asked Zhou Chen with tears in his eyes: "Xiao Zhou, do you understand my uncle's suffering?"
Zhou Chen couldn't help but nodded: "I understand, Uncle Qiao, it's really hard for you."
When he said this, goosebumps appeared all over his body.
Gu Zhu
"What about work?" The topic came back to Qiao Zuwang.
Zhou Chen was silent for a while, and saw Qiao Sanli shaking her head at him, winking at her calmly, and then spoke.
"Uncle Qiao, no matter what, I can't let you be gossiped about, but what you said makes sense. For the sake of the children, I have an idea, do you think it will work?"
"You say, you say."
Qiao Zuwang felt that Zhou Chen might have been moved by him and would soon find a good job for him, and that good days would come in the future.
Zhou Chen said: "Uncle Qiao, what you just said makes sense. At your age, you are about to retire. It is really not suitable for you to come out to work again. Moreover, your children, the second best and the fourth beauties are all
Now that you are out working, 10% of your salary is expected to be around the corner. I think your good days are coming soon."
As Qiao Zuwang listened, he felt something was wrong, but he couldn't explain why, so he continued to listen patiently.
"Children should be filial to their parents. Uncle Qiao, that's what I think. Why don't I find some connections and get Erqiang and Simei to work in Chenxing Textile Factory. After they make money, they will definitely be filial to you. When the time comes, you will both
You don’t have to work hard yourself, and you can have filial children and everyone is happy, what do you think?”
"I don't think so..."
Qiao Zuwang suddenly wanted to curse, but suddenly realized that he was asking for help, so he swallowed the second half of his words.
He said dryly: "This is not good. The second strong one has a job now, and the fourth beauty is also looking for a job. They are still young and hardworking. Working in the factory can easily lead to corruption. They should make a good career in society.
Forget it for them, let me, an old father, do this hard work."
"Uncle Qiao, I understand what you mean, but young people should be bitter before sweet. The second strong and the fourth beautiful are still young. They are definitely not afraid of hardship. Sanli, what do you think?"
Zhou Chen's sudden suggestion made Sanli's head still cloudy. When she heard Zhou Chen's question, she immediately reacted.
"Yes, brother Zhou Chen is right. Dad, I think it is also a good thing to let the second brother and Simei go to the factory to practice. You can enjoy it at home."
"I……"
Qiao Sanli didn't give Qiao Zuwang a chance to speak, and interrupted directly: "Dad, we are all your children, and we should be filial to you. When my eldest brother and I both work, we will definitely be filial to you. You have worked hard all your life.
It’s time to enjoy the blessings.”
Qiao Zuwang felt a breath stuck in his heart and couldn't get out. He was completely confused and didn't know what to say.
Zhou Chen laughed. Sanli, a simple and kind-hearted person, actually learned to take advantage of the situation. This was all forced by her old father.
So he added another fuel to the fire: "Uncle Qiao, I know you are worried about Er Qiang and Si Mei. Don't worry, I will definitely find an easy job for them according to your request, and I will never make them miserable.
Tired."
For him, this is actually a very good opportunity to complete the task.
His side mission is to change the tragedy of the Qiao family. If he recruits both Qiao Erqiang and Qiao Simei to the Chenxing Textile Factory, will his fate be changed?
No matter what, he had to give it a try, not to mention that it could also add trouble to Qiao Zuwang, so it was perfect.
Qiao Zuwang was so uncomfortable with Zhou Chen and Sanli's chorus that even the tea in his cup felt tasteless.
Suddenly he stood up, Qiao Zuwang said with a darkened face: "Xiao Zhou, you are serious."
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave, but when he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and said, "Xiao Zhou, you and Sanli are still studying now. I think you should study hard at this time and don't imitate those bad things."
Sanli, the promiscuous young man, please come home quickly and don’t go to other people’s houses casually in the future, especially when you are alone.”
After saying that, he left the Zhou family.
He was not an idiot, so how could he not see the cooperation between Zhou Chen and Sanli? Zhou Chen deliberately refused to give him a job, and even blocked him by finding jobs for his children. This made him feel very dissatisfied, so he finally warned Zhou Chen.
.
Zhou Chen just smiled disdainfully, while Sanli said sheepishly: "Brother Zhou Chen, I'm really sorry for today."
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, this is not your problem, and what I just said is sincere."
Qiao Sanli's face suddenly turned red. She knew what Zhou Chen was talking about, so she whispered: "Brother Zhou Chen, I believe you. Don't worry about what my dad said. No one will listen to us brothers and sisters."
his."
"Well, I know. You should go back quickly, or your father will talk to you again."
"Okay, brother Zhou Chen, I'll go back first, and I'll come back to you tomorrow."
"Bye-Bye."
"Bye-Bye."
…………
After sending Qiao Zuwang away, Zhou Chen no longer felt sleepy, so he changed his clothes, turned around and went out.
Not long after I walked onto the street, I suddenly saw Qiao Yicheng walking towards me.
"Qiao Yicheng."
When Qiao Yicheng saw Zhou Chen, he also came over: "Zhou Chen, why are you free to come back today?"
The two of them are in constant contact and know that each other lives in the school.
"The teacher gave me a period of vacation, and I will come back to rest."
Qiao Yicheng said with envy: "You are better, I have never seen a master's degree or a doctorate as easy as yours."
"Why is it relaxing? The things I do are probably more tiring than your studies. Sometimes I am so busy that I can't sleep all day and all night."
Zhou Chen told the truth. Sometimes when the experiment reaches a critical point, there is no time to rest.
"You happen to be free today, why don't we go out for a meal together, and invite Qi Weimin too? Since Qi Weimin also went to graduate school, we haven't had a meal together for a long time, right?"
Qiao Yicheng thought for a moment and said, "It's okay to eat, but I have to invite you this time."
When eating before, most of the guests were invited by Zhou Chen and Qi Weimin, and he invited the least. This was naturally unacceptable to him with a strong self-esteem.
Zhou Chen shrugged and said, "I don't care, as long as Qi Weimin doesn't rob you."
To be honest, I have known Qi Weimin for many years. This Qi Weimin is indeed a good person. Even though Qiao Yicheng is very dissatisfied with his help, Qi Weimin always helps the Qiao family overtly and covertly, with the same kind of selfless dedication.
Such people are really rare. Even if he has lived for more than a hundred years, he has not seen many of them.
