All Heavens Film and Television started from Joyful Qiao Weidong since childhood

Chapter 1513: Qiao Zuwang is making trouble, do you want a slap in the face?
Qiao Erqiang knew that Qiao Lao Da had a strong sense of self-esteem, which was a habit formed by his environment since childhood.

I simply made up an excuse: "Hurry up and keep it. I'll just consider this house as a loan to you. When your TV station gets a new house in the future, you can return it to me then!"

"We have already rented a house, we can move in when the time comes!" Qiao Yicheng still refused.

He has his own self-esteem. He has always been disgusted with Erqiang's wandering around since he was a child, so he doesn't want to use his brother's money. He always feels inferior to others and is afraid that he will not be able to hold his head up in the future.

Qiao Erqiang was overwhelmed: "I have a house here, why are you renting one? This is really a bit too polite!"

"Then put yourself in their shoes. If I get married and have no house to live in, do you have any free time to rent a house for me?"

"Of course not!" Qiao Yicheng replied subconsciously, but he immediately reacted.

"But…"

"Don't say buts. This house is otherwise empty. Just consider it as helping me look for a house. I can't have a vacant house here and then you go out and rent one!"

"Well... then I'll pay you the rent~" Qiao Yicheng was silent for a moment and then raised his head.

I just feel a little uncomfortable!

After supporting the family for many years, I have become accustomed to thinking of myself as the main supporter, but I find that I am not that relied upon.

How could Qiao Erqiang be short of this little money? Even though it was the 90s, it would cost hundreds of dollars to treat people to a meal.

But in order to protect his self-esteem, he still nodded reluctantly: "Oh, then 100 yuan a month!"

"Okay!" Qiao Yicheng finally smiled.

Although I know that this amount of money is definitely not enough to rent a two-bedroom apartment, at least I can accept it mentally. The difference of a few dozen dollars doesn't matter.

The rent of just 100 yuan is nothing. He has a master's degree, which is a high level of education in that era. There are not many people like him in the entire TV station. He is a cadre as soon as he joins the unit.

Even though he has only worked for a year, he has already caught up with many old employees. His current monthly salary is 460 yuan. His fiancée Ye Xiaolang is also a journalist and earns more than 300 yuan a month. The combined burden for the two of them is not too heavy.

"Second brother!" Sanli was anxious. How could he really ask for money?

Qiao Erqiang didn't say anything, but took out a wad of money from his wallet. This was all the cash he brought with him today. He couldn't count it, but it was probably around 2000 yuan.

"Brother, give it!"

"What are you doing?" Qiao Yicheng looked at the money and was a little confused again.

He replied confidently, "This is a gift to you. Isn't it normal for a younger brother to give a gift when he gets married?"

"Hehehe~" Sanli laughed secretly, knowing that her second brother would have a way.

"You...how can you give so much as a gift?" This is almost as much as Qiao Yicheng's half annual salary.

"Don't worry about how much I give you. I'll have to give the money back when I get married, so just take it with a clear conscience~"

After saying that, he stuffed the money directly into his pocket, took the cup of water from his sister, and took a big gulp.

This is also Qiao Erqiang's roundabout strategy. You have a strong sense of self-esteem. If you feel uncomfortable with the house you live in, just pay the rent, and then I will give you a large gift money.

Even though it's a bit like taking off pants to fart, the intellectual Qiao Yicheng still falls for it.

"Well... okay then~" Qiao Yicheng thought about it and it made sense. At worst, he could just wait until his brother got married and take him back with him.

"Second brother, will it be available when I get married?" Qiao Simei came over with a smile.

"Go away, go away. I'm annoyed when I see you!" Qiao Erqiang pretended to be angry and pushed her little head away.

"What are you brothers and sisters talking about here?" Qiao Zuwang, dressed in a suit and tie, walked back home with lazy steps.

Don't tell me yet!

When Old Joe is dressed like this, he looks quite like an uncle.

Compared to last year when the factory went bankrupt and the frustrated look on his face, he is now full of energy and vigor.

The young man wore a more decent suit than Qiao Erqiang, and his leather shoes were polished to a shine. People who didn't know him would think he was a big businessman.

"Dad, isn't this the new house my eldest brother is getting married and my second brother has prepared for him~" Qiao Simei took the key and went up to show off excitedly.

Sanli tried to stop him but failed!
Qiao Erqiang was too lazy to pay attention to him, and even didn't stand up when he saw him enter the room, and continued to drink tea by himself. After so many years, I have finally figured it out. Old Qiao, can't you be nice to him!

But he is usually busy with the construction of the shopping mall and hasn't been back for several months. I am curious to see him like you.

She tilted her head and pouted: "Sanli, what's wrong with him?"

"Second brother, I heard from Sparrow Eyes that our father is raising funds recently. My eldest brother has tried to persuade him but it was useless. I don't think it's reliable. How about you persuade him again later?"

Sanli spoke softly while looking at Qiao Zuwang with a worried look on his face.

Well, this is not unreliable at all. Anyone who mentions the word "fund-raising" is not necessarily a scammer, but at least it is high-risk.

With Qiao Zuwang's brain, he always loses when playing mahjong. How could he have the IQ to play with such high-tech things? I'm afraid there is a 99.9% chance that he has been cheated.

But I was too lazy to care about his trivial matter. It didn't matter whether he was a scam or not. As long as my life was safe, it was enough. So I didn't respond to Sanli's words.

On this side, after hearing what his little daughter said, Qiao Zuwang's eyes flashed with a bright light.

This second son is so rich!

A house can be given to you just by saying so?

As a father, shouldn't he be filial to his parents? He just happens to be short of money for investment recently.

So Hu cleared his throat: "Ahem!"

"Well, since everyone is here, let's just have a small family meeting!"

They have been together for so many years, and even if I say something that may sound a bit ridiculous, you know what Old Joe is going to do as soon as he lifts his butt.

It's guaranteed to be something strange!

So Qiao Erqiang stood up and said, "Then you guys go ahead, I have something to do at the company!"

"Hey, don't go, it won't take long!" Qiao Zuwang was anxious.

The second son is gone, what’s the point of opening a business then!

"I don't have time to chat with you!" Qiao Erqiang ignored him, continued walking towards the door, and even glared at Qiao Simei.

"Give me that black bag. It's useless to give it to you!"

Humph, just don’t let her go to your own company!
You can't keep two taels of oil in your stomach, so you just show off this!
Simei avoided the gaze awkwardly, not realizing that she had just made a mistake and should not have told her father about the house.

"Brother, you are so old and you still eat snacks!"

"Stop talking nonsense, I'll give it to Qiqi instead of giving it to you!"

"Hmph, if you don't want to give it to me, then don't give it to me~" Qiao Simei handed it over with a reluctant look on his face.

Qiao Zuwang was unhappy, and patted the table with his hand, saying, "Hey, hey, hey, do you still see me as your father?"

“It’s time for a meeting!”

"Stop talking nonsense to me. Just tell me what you want to say. Why are you in a hurry to leave?" Qiao Erqiang didn't give him a good face at all.

“Uh…” Qiao Zuwang was timid out of habit, and did not act arrogantly like he did towards his other children.

Pretending to be tough, he said, "Well, since you are so rich, shouldn't you give me more living expenses?"

Before Qiao Erqiang could say anything, Qiao Yicheng on the side was unhappy: "Why do you want money? Wasn't it already settled last year? Isn't 200 per month enough for you to spend?"

"I..." Qiao Zuwang had already thought of an excuse, but before he could say it.

Qiao Erqiang gave him a death stare: "I don't have any money!"

"I have a big slap here, do you want one?"
