Qiao Zuwang could decisively refuse Qiao Simei's request, and he refused very thoroughly.
But even though Qiao Zuwang was tough-talking, he still had to write blessings when necessary. For Qiao Simei, Qiao Zuwang still felt soft in his heart.
Whether it was for love or profit, Qiao Zuwang also wanted Qiao Simei to come back.
But others can't do this, and they can't even be tough.
Sanli and Qiqi have gentle personalities, let alone compromise with Qiao Simei.
It was Qiao Yicheng, the cold-faced god of war. On the surface, he was very angry and tore up all the postcards. However, in order to give Qiao Simei a way out and allow Qiao Simei to come back with dignity, he also had to compromise with Qiao Simei.
"When you come back, explain it to your brother properly and stop fooling around. If you really like him, live a good life with him. I will help you explain it to your brother."
The postcard sent by Sanli probably contained this, and the postcards written by others also had similar contents.
The content focuses on two aspects: persuading Qiao Yicheng not to be angry and blessing Qiao Simei on her marriage.
After replying to the letter, Qiao Simei no longer needs to worry.
What the Qiao family should worry about is the next problem. Qiao Qiqi passed the college entrance examination, and there were no surprises. She did not perform well and was not admitted to university.
Qiao Qiqi suddenly changed from a student to a young man in society. It was time for Qiao Qiqi to make a decision whether she wanted to join the workforce or not.
"Qiqi, do you have any plans for your future now? Do you want to continue going to school and learn something, play for a while, or just find a job?"
Although Niu Ye has certain arrangements for Qiao Qiqi, he also wants to hear Qiao Qiqi's own opinions first.
"Brother Niu Ye, I haven't thought about it yet?"
Qiao Qiqi has never had much of an opinion. From childhood to adulthood, she really didn't have much chance to make the decision.
"What happened to your partner? Has he been admitted to college?"
Graduation season is also the season of breakups. Niu Ye must be concerned about Qiao Qiqi's emotional problems.
"Admitted to a junior college."
Qiao Qiqi said with a smile, in the era when universities had not yet expanded their enrollment, even junior colleges were pretty good.
Although starting from 1995, college graduates are no longer uniformly assigned jobs.
But at this stage, it is not difficult to find a good job with a college diploma.
"Which school do you go to and what major do you study?"
Seeing Qiao Qiqi's delighted expression, Niu Ye knew that the relationship between the two was still maintained for the time being, so he didn't ask this question with an obvious answer.
"It's our local school. Just like my eldest brother, he studied in a normal school."
"It's good for a girl to go to a normal school, and being a teacher and educating people is also a good career. But Qiqi, since this girl wants to go to college, if you still want to continue developing with her, then your requirements for yourself are
It’s a little higher.”
It is still necessary to have a basic match. The family gap between men and women is really not that big.
If the girl graduates from college, Qiao Qiqi will stop there and the two of them want to get married.
It is inevitable that he will be picked on by the woman, and Qiao Qiqi will be disliked, just like the Qiao family now dislikes Qi Chenggang.
"Brother Niu Ye, how should I improve?"
It can be heard that Qiao Qiqi has no plans for her life yet.
"I suggest you go to a TV university to study at night, learn more, and improve your diploma. If you really don't want to study and have no interest in studying, then from now on, you should think about what you are interested in.
Choose an industry you like, study more, and then think about starting a business and becoming a boss.”
Since Qiao Qiqi had the idea of marrying a college student and becoming an ordinary part-time worker, Niu Ye immediately eliminated the option for Qiao Qiqi.
In fact, Qiao Qiqi's character, who does not act as a decision-maker but as a part-time worker who works according to the work schedule, is really excellent.
Originally, Niu Ye had planned that Qiao Qiqi would go directly to work in his own factory after graduating from high school. After training, Qiao Qiqi was quite trustworthy.
Just considering the need to cultivate Qiao Qiqi's self-care and independence skills, Niu Ye temporarily shelved the matter of going to work in Niu's factory.
"Brother Niu Ye, let me think about it." Qiao Qiqi frowned and said, unable to make up his mind.
"It's time to think about it carefully. I just want to talk to you in advance so that you can be prepared. How you want to go in the future should be discussed with your elder brother and your elder brother."
Niu Ye could only give some advice, even if Qiao Qiqi couldn't decide on her own, how to go in the future.
The people who are qualified to help Qiao Qiqi choose her future life path are Qiao Yicheng, the talker of the Qiao family, and Qi Weimin, who takes the most care of Qiqi.
"Boss Qiao, Qiqi has graduated from high school. Can you help me think about what I should do in the future?"
Qiqi and Qiao Yicheng were not that close, so Niu Ye helped Qiqi ask Qiao Yicheng this question. He chose a time after get off work and invited Qiao Yicheng out for tea.
"On the issue of Qiqi, we still have to let Qi Weimin make the decision."
After a brief thought, Qiao Yicheng recommended it to Qi Weimin.
"Then do you have any comments or suggestions?"
"I don't have any opinions or suggestions. If Qiqi doesn't have a job, I know some people who can help him introduce a job. But I don't think I will be needed to introduce Qiqi to a job."
Regarding Qiao Qiqi's affairs, Qiao Yicheng obviously did not take care of them as much as he did with his other brothers and sisters.
"Qiao Yicheng, are you still concerned about Qiqi's life experience?"
After Qiao Yicheng and Qi Qi got acquainted, it was hard to tell at ordinary times. Niu Ye almost ignored Qiao Yicheng's different treatment of Qi Qi. Qiao Yicheng had always had doubts about Qi Qi's life experience.
Nervous.
Now when something happens, it becomes a bit obvious. In his heart, Qiao Yicheng is still not that close to Qiqi.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "No, I treat him the same, Qiqi is also my brother."
Qiao Yicheng's words that he said without sincerity had little confidence. After being together for so many years, it was still obvious whether Niu Ye was sincere to Qiao Yicheng.
"Do you know about DNA testing?" Niu Ye asked.
"Know a little bit."
As a reporter, Qiao Yicheng is very concerned about all kinds of news.
DNA testing began to be used by the police department in 1992. It has been three years now. As a journalist, Qiao Yicheng knows a little bit about it.
"It's good that you know. Originally, I wanted to wait until we can do appraisals in China, and then help Qiqi make one. If you are still worried, we won't wait for the development of domestic technology. Next time, Sanli and I will
If you go to Hong Kong City, you should also come with us, and we will do an appraisal directly in Hong Kong, so that you will not have a knot in your heart."
Domestic identification is mainly used in criminal identification.
We have to wait until the new century for private DNA testing to be open to the public. It will take too long.
He had to do something sooner or later, so it would be better to do it earlier than to do it that night, so Niu Ye directly suggested that Qiao Yicheng follow the two of them to Hong Kong City.
"It's not necessary, it's too much trouble. No matter what, Qiqi is my brother."
Qiao Yicheng said duplicitously. He really wanted to clear up his doubts, but he was afraid of causing trouble to Niu Ye, so he said negatively.
"That's it. Next time Sanli and I go to Hong Kong City, you can come with us. It's no trouble. Just treat it as a trip. You have been working for so many years and you haven't taken a vacation to have fun.
Just for fun, think of it as a reward for yourself when you go out this time."
The way to deal with Qiao Yicheng's awkward personality is still the same, just help Qiao Yicheng make decisions directly.
Niu Ye helped Qiao Qiqi make an appointment with Qiao Yicheng, while Qi Weimin went over to talk to Qi Weimin himself.
Because Chang Xingyu lives in Nanjing, even if Qi Weimin goes to work elsewhere, he always comes back two, three or four times a month.
When Qi Weimin and his wife reunite, Qiao Qiqi is indispensable most of the time.
Qiao Weimin and his wife, when they fell in love before getting married, they had already fully realized the joy of raising a baby.
"Eldest brother, Niu Ye brother, third sister, my brother has said that he also hopes that I will continue to study."
After Qiao Qiqi met Qi Weimin, her feedback was to continue studying.
"Then there's nothing to worry about. Qiqi, just sign up for a TV major and study at night, and just continue studying."
Qiao Qiqi's learning situation is better than Qiao Erqiang and Qiao Simei.
In fact, her usual academic performance is not very bad. Qiao Qiqi usually gives the impression that she is not good at studying. This is largely because Qiao Qiqi is afraid of exams. Every time she takes an exam, her brain goes blank and she cannot test her actual level.
So if you ask Qiao Qiqi to enroll in a TV university, night university, correspondence course, etc., Qiao Qiqi can still learn something.
Even if the test scores are not good, Qiao Qiqi has learned all the knowledge in his head, which is definitely not a loss.
After making the decision, of course the actual operation started. It took almost a week to choose a school for Qiqi, choose a major, and sign up.
"Brother Niu, the eldest brother called. Simei will be back tomorrow. In order to give Simei a break, the eldest brother has reserved a table at the Jinling Hotel. At noon tomorrow, he asked us to bring Qiqi over for dinner."
It was Saturday again, after Niuye got off work and met with Sanli, Sanli told Niuye the news that Qiao Simei was coming back.
The two of them had been playing outside for more than a month, and it was really cool. They should have spent almost all of Qiao Simei's savings over the past year.
Originally, it was Qiao Simei's expense to go to Tibet and visit Qi Chenggang. The two of them used it to travel and spend their honeymoon. It was considered a match, so it was still spent on the two of them.
"Jinling Hotel, Boss Qiao is bleeding this time. I think he doesn't just want to give Simei Qiao a break, he also wants to serve Simei a drink."
Qiao Yicheng took the initiative to choose a five-star hotel. When it came to eating, it was quite small, which was not in line with Qiao Yicheng's thrifty style.
"Simei is not planning to hold the wedding banquet. My eldest brother is helping to prepare the wine. The whole family is sitting together to have a meal. What's wrong with the bustle?"
Sanli heard the sourness in Niu Ye's words and pretended to be dissatisfied.
Qiao Simei and Qi Chenggang's marriage was a little simpler, and they didn't even need a basic ceremony.
On the one hand, the two of them were in a hurry to get their certificates, and on the other hand, they were poor.
However, these two problems are relatively easy to solve. It is not difficult for both Sanli and Qiao Yicheng to help Qiao Simei pay for a simple wedding.
But the most important reason why Qiao Simei didn't hold a wedding was the disgraceful incident of Qi Chenggang being dismissed from the army.
Qi Chenggang usually couldn't hide from anyone, let alone advertise it widely and summon all his relatives and friends to attend the wedding.
No relative or friend should complain about Qi Chenggang's early return from the army.
"It's nothing, it's just that this is also the daughter of the Qiao family who is getting married. Why didn't I catch up with this brother-in-law and go to the Jinling Hotel to serve him wine?"
Although Niu Ye always felt that Qiao Yicheng liked Sanli the most, Qiao Yicheng was really good with Qiao Simei.
"I'm not talking about whether my eldest brother has the money to serve us wine when we get married. Even if my eldest brother is willing to serve us wine, can my parents agree to let him serve it?"
"That's the same truth." Niu Ye nodded and replied.
...
Sunday came, the day agreed upon for Qiao Sanli and Qi Chenggang to catch up and wash their hands of each other.
Sanli took Niuye, her children, and Qiqi out of the house early in the morning.
In order to show the importance to Qiao Simei, this 'wedding banquet' is not a wedding banquet.
It is the most basic thing for a person to change into decent and clean clothes.
So after having breakfast, Sanli took everyone out to choose clothes.
I basically bought clothes from childhood to adulthood. I bought them for my children, for Qiqi, and when it was time to buy clothes for Niu Ye, Qiao Yicheng called me again.
"Hey, Qiao Yicheng, it's still early, so there's no need to rush me so early. Isn't it almost noon for them to arrive..."
"What? No need to go there? Simei's car is delayed, so we won't have dinner together today. Well, I'll tell Sanli that it's okay, okay, then I'll give it up."
"Sanli, Qiqi, my eldest brother called me. I won't go to Jinling Hotel for dinner today. Simei's bus is delayed. We don't have to rush there. We can just buy clothes slowly."
After hanging up the phone, Niuye informed the two people of the news.
"Since we have reserved a private room, if Simei doesn't come back, she won't come back. You should tell eldest brother that we can go over and get together." After hearing this, Sanli said, she still quite liked gathering with Qiao Yicheng.
of.
"I also thought about it, but then I thought about it. Since there is nothing important, there is no need to go to the Jinling Hotel for dinner. What I was talking about today was that the eldest brother wanted to treat me, but Simei didn't come back, so there was no need to let the eldest brother spend money.
.”
Sanli didn't know what the situation was, but Niuye could still guess something.
Qiao Yicheng's attitude changed so quickly. It was probably because Qiao Yicheng asked Song Qingyuan to find out clearly that Qi Chenggang was expelled from the army because of his work style.
Qiao Yicheng is going to have a showdown with Qi Chenggang today, so naturally the fewer people waiting around, the better.
Of course Niu Ye couldn't bring it up, so he even asked Qiao Yicheng to have dinner at the Jinling Hotel.
