Chapter 1562 - Raising Us Up

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

She said it as if Qiao Nan deserved to be raising her daughter up. She sounded so righteous and confident that it made people want to laugh and cry at the same time.

Upon hearing that Qiao Nan was so rich, Ding Jiayi was shocked. “Where did you hear this from? Are you sure?” Was Qiao Nan really that rich?

“You don’t have to care where I heard this from. You just have to know that this is the truth. Qiao Nan doesn’t lack money. Ying Ying can call her aunt and ask her to provide some money so that Ying Ying can continue to go to school. That is her role as an aunt. Mom, I’m bringing Ying Ying over to find you. Help us prepare a room.”

After saying this, Qiao Zijin hung up the call as she was worried that Ding Jiayi would refuse. After making this call, Qiao Zijin encouraged herself and squatted down. “Ying Ying, Mom will bring you to the capital so that you can live there in the future. Don’t worry. Mom will make sure that you lead a life better than before, just like a princess.”

Qiao Nan was so rich and had so many houses. She even heard that many of them were villas. It wasn’t difficult for her to let Ying Ying lead the life of a princess. If Qiao Nan dared to reject her, she would dare to blow up the matter and let everyone know that Qiao Nan was one of the heartless rich. After becoming the country’s minister, she didn’t even acknowledge her relatives anymore.

Zhou Ying blinked before smiling sweetly. “Okay, Mom will let me be a little princess.” Zhou Ying didn’t find these words unfamiliar. When they were at the Zhou family, Father Zhou and Mother Zhou had told her this as well.

“...” Ding Jiayi was dumbfounded when she heard the beep sound from the phone for the third time. Her house wasn’t big and there were only two rooms. She was already living in the bigger room. The smaller room was especially small and couldn’t even fit a bed nicely. As such, she used it to put her things.

Now, her eldest daughter was bringing her granddaughter over to seek refuge. She even asked her to prepare a room for them. Ding Jiayi didn’t know what to say. She couldn’t possibly let out her bigger room and squeeze in the smaller room, right? They had to know that Qiao Nan had specially rented this house for her!

Ding Jiayi didn’t feel that her life was getting better. After her eldest daughter’s call, the matter became more complicated and harder to resolve. Ding Jiayi couldn’t stop her now even if she wanted to. Qiao Zijin was probably already on the plane to the capital.

Qiao Nan didn’t know that the big trouble Zhai Sheng sent away had returned with small trouble again. What was more ruthless was that after knowing all the things that she owned now, Chen Jun felt that if she hadn’t rejected him back then, everything on Qiao Nan’s hands would also be his now.

Man and wife were one. After Qiao Nan became the minister, could Elder Lin have made some special arrangements for him, the husband of Qiao Nan, before he passed away?

Stopping one from getting rich was akin to killing one’s parents.

Chen Jun felt that it was right for him to take revenge on Qiao Nan by sending Qiao Zijin over to trouble her. This was what Qiao Nan owed him.

Things were always so coincidental. If these people unfavorable to Qiao Nan were crowded together, wouldn’t they bring Qiao Nan a devastating catastrophe?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

On the first day Qiao Zijin brought Zhou Ying to the capital, of course, they moved into Ding Jiayi’s house. When she saw the small room that Ding Jiayi had prepared for her and her daughter, Qiao Zijin’s face turned ugly and Zhou Ying cried. “Mom, I want to go home. The room in my house is big, and it’s filled with pretty dolls. This house is too small and ugly. It’s worse than the princess room at home. I want to go home and find grandpa and grandma. They wouldn’t let me stay in such a broken room.”

Qiao Zijin exhaled. “Mom, it is fine for me to suffer for the time being. However, Ying Ying was brought up well by the Zhou family. I’ve said before that the reason why I brought Ying Ying over to the capital is so that she could lead a good life. Let’s do this. Your room’s big, so I won’t squeeze with you. Let Ying Ying sleep with you tonight. I’ll find Qiao Nan tomorrow and would definitely not let you squeeze with Ying Ying again. How about that?”

She was going to bring her daughter to stay in a villa tomorrow. A villa in the capital!

Upon hearing Zhou Ying crying, Ding Jiayi felt a headache. Over these years, Ding Jiayi liked Zhou Ying. Once her granddaughter cried, she would feel heartache. The problem was that ever since Qiao Nan was three years old, Ding Jiayi had let her take care of herself. Now that Qiao Zijin asked her to take care of her granddaughter, Ding Jiayi felt that she didn’t have the capability and couldn’t bear the suffering.

How would Ding Jiayi, a woman who had given birth to two daughters, not know how troublesome raising children could be?

After thinking for a while, Ding Jiayi gritted her teeth. “Let’s do this. Just one night tonight. No matter what the results are tomorrow and no matter whether Qiao Nan agrees to you or not, I’ll let you and Ying Ying sleep in my room. I’ll stay in the smaller room for a night. This shall not be repeated tomorrow. If Ying Ying finds the rooms to be too small, then you’ll have to solve the problem yourself.”

Even after knowing that Qiao Nan might be rich, Ding Jiayi felt that Qiao Zijin’s thoughts were overly optimistic. Qiao Nan wasn’t that easy to talk to. Qiao Nan’s identity as a minister might not be the absolute reason for them to control Qiao Nan.

Anyway, Ding Jiayi would definitely not involve herself in this matter. If she infuriated Qiao Nan, she might not even be able to guarantee the life she was leading now. If she didn’t offend Qiao Nan, even without going out to work, her monthly allowance now was much higher than her salary at work in the past. She didn’t have to pay the house rentals as well. She just had to think of ways to pass time every day. Life wasn’t that bad.

“Also, let me give you a piece of advice. It’s not wise to use hard tactics on Qiao Nan. She can be much ruthless than us.” If it was another person who had married into the Zhai family and become the minister of foreign affairs, based on their family situation, how would Zijin dare to provoke the minister? She would probably hide to the side.

Qiao Zijin didn’t say anything. She obviously didn’t believe Ding Jiayi’s words. Qiao Nan was now a minister. How would someone like her not want face? If she kicked up a fuss, Qiao Nan would lose face and this might even impact her future development adversely.

If she didn’t have a good life, Qiao Nan didn’t have to think about everything going smoothly as well. If she really infuriated her, not only would she want Qiao Nan to lose her job as a minister, but she would also think of ways to pry out the money in her hands so that it became hers.

Of course, if Qiao Nan knew what was best for her and was willing to fulfill her request, then everyone was still relatives and they were still sisters. After all, she and her daughter could only have a good life if Qiao Nan led a good life, right?

Qiao Zijin had made up her mind at this time that not only was she going to pester Qiao Nan, but she was also prepared for Qiao Nan to provide for her and her daughter for life. Qiao Nan had to make sure that they led a good life.
