The children of the Qiao family

Chapter 65

That's right, that's right, that's right, she always... takes other people's things in the store.But the teacher said that it is not a crime, but also a disease.

The old man patted the bed rail and said in a rough voice: Shit!You are so useless!If it were me, I wouldn't be able to kill her!Give her a hard treatment, and I will keep her free of any illnesses!

The old man coughed again, Qu Aying came over, fed the old man the medicine, and the old man fell asleep.

After that day, the old man's illness became more and more serious day by day, and when Qi Qi came again, he never sat up.Qu Aying made the decision and stopped the old man's medicine, saying that it was useless to take it, but even lost his little appetite, why don't you cook something delicious for him.

Qiao Qiqi felt in her heart that this was wrong, and wanted to object, but she still didn't say it, and told Qi Weimin. Qi Weimin felt that the matter was not good, so she rushed to tell Qiao Yicheng.

However, before Qiao Yicheng had time to take care of this matter, something happened to him himself.

After breaking up with Ju An, Ju An's mother wrote Qiao Yicheng a letter.In the letter, I asked Qiao Yicheng for forgiveness on behalf of Ju'an, and finally wrote, don't bear any grudges for my obstruction of the relationship between you in the past and later. , You are full of grievances, which cannot come out and cannot be resolved in your stomachs, but you are different, you live with a more sense of responsibility than Ju An.Please accept my sincere thanks for your care of Ju'an.Originally, I wanted to compensate you, but that was tantamount to an insult to you.Yicheng, Ju An's mother finally called Qiao Yicheng like this, I wish you a smooth journey ahead, you will surely get happiness, you deserve all the happiness.

After Qiao Yicheng read the letter, a day later, he burned all the things related to Wen Ju'an.Formalism and dramatization were originally Qiao Simei's favorite thing, but this time Qiao Yicheng realized that there is also a beauty in it. Seeing the flames soaring high and reflecting on his face, Qiao Yicheng felt a kind of The joy of being reborn from the ashes comes.

Then, something happened to Qiao Yicheng.However, according to Song Qingyuan's words, the so-called misfortune depends on blessings, and things in this world are just so wonderful.

Song Qingyuan received a call from Qiao Yicheng at four o'clock in the morning one day.

On the phone, Qiao Yicheng's voice was trembling uncomfortably. Song Qingyuan thought he had been in a car accident at first, and was also shocked.After all, Qiao Yicheng was able to say a complete sentence, but Song Qingyuan was fooled.

Qiao Yicheng said that he was detained by the city bureau, could he be invited to come and pay the bond.Thirty thousand.

Without further ado, Song Qingyuan opened the safe at home and took out 3 yuan. The bank seal on it hadn't been removed yet. He originally planned to buy a new lens.

Song Qingyuan has been making shows for the past few years, and he is very close to the policemen from the city bureau.He found an acquaintance in the Propaganda Department, and the police officer took him and cursed secretly without saying a word: That director Qiao in your station has been a bad luck for eight lifetimes, how did he do it?
Song Qingyuan hurriedly asked what was the matter, the police officer looked strange, with a half-smile, took a puff of smoke and said: I was bitten by a young lady.

Song Qingyuan yelled something strange, and cursed a few times, saying that it was absolutely impossible. How long have I known Qiao Yicheng? He is not that kind of person. letter!
The police officer also laughed: "Old Song, you are really rare. In this era, there are still people like you who are bothering your friends."

Song Qingyuan laughed and said: "You do me this favor, big things become small, small things become small, I owe you a favor, and next time I will stab you again."

The police officer put away his teasing energy and said no, he has been holding on tight recently.The bad thing is that Qiao Yicheng said that he just knew the lady and had no other relationship with that lady, but the lady insisted that he was her guest.What's even more annoying is that the person who was caught together with Qiao Yicheng, do you know who it is?It's a small head of the city's Propaganda Department. Damn, what's wrong with a government official doing something like this?It's not a big fish, it just happens to be used as a raft.Knowing that Qiao Yicheng is from your station, and you take him away after paying the deposit, we will try our best to block the news, but we must deal with it.It's hard to say what's next.

When Song Qingyuan saw Qiao Yicheng, he was shocked again.Overnight, Qiao Yicheng aged ten years. His beard was stubble, his face was gray, and he seemed to have shrunk in size. A casual coat was wrinkled.

Song Qingyuan called a car to take Qiao Yicheng away without asking anything, and directly reported his home address to the driver, but Qiao Yicheng suddenly said that he should go back to his place.

When he arrived at the place, Song Qingyuan got out of the car and asked to accompany him upstairs, but Qiao Yicheng did not refuse. When he reached the entrance of the corridor, Qiao Yicheng stopped suddenly and looked up at the night sky.

It was the darkest moment before dawn, the pitch-black sky became more and more boundless, and the two or three stars were so dim that they could hardly be seen. You had to look hard to see them flickering slightly.Tall trees, with their branches pointing directly at the sky, seemed to pierce the darkness so as to let out a little light.

Qiao Yicheng withdrew his gaze. After looking at the sky for a long time, his eyes darkened.Qiao Yicheng said: Old Song, what do you think a human is?You can't decide your own life at all, so what the hell are we?
Talking and laughing until Song Qingyuan's back was covered with cold sweat, Qiao Yicheng said again, don't worry, Lao Song, go home, I'm not confused, I want to see how my life will mess with me.

His tone was vicious, almost gnashing his teeth, with a touch of excitement that had never been seen in his gentle and gloomy temperament.

For some reason, his expression reminded Song Qingyuan of a heavy-laden camel, snorting from exhaustion and chewing grass in his mouth, but it seemed to be half-smile in people's eyes, it was funny but also sad.

Qiao Yicheng took three days of sick leave, and only after that did Song Qingyuan understand what happened.

Because Qiao Yicheng wanted to cooperate with the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee on a civic forum program, Qiao Yicheng got closer to a director named Liu in the department.

Liu Chu talked about things at the dinner table, and he liked to have a drink or two after eating, so Qiao Yicheng had no choice but to accompany him.One day, Liu Chu took Qiao Yicheng and a few others to a familiar nightclub, and Qiao Yicheng faintly felt that something was wrong as soon as he entered.

Sure enough, not long after taking a seat in the box, several young women walked in.Among them, the brightest one immediately sat down beside Liu Chu, and the scene was very familiar to anyone with a discerning eye.

There was also a woman who sat down beside Qiao Yicheng. Qiao Yicheng subconsciously gave way a little. The young woman immediately noticed his subtle movements and smiled, but she didn't immediately turn to him like the other women. The man leaned over, but sat upright, drinking wine peacefully.

Over there Liu Chu said with a smile: This is Director Qiao, Fanny, you should toast him a few more glasses.

Hearing this, the young woman named Fanny turned her body slightly, held a glass of wine in both hands, and said in a low voice: I respect you, Director Qiao.His voice was slightly hoarse.Qiao Yicheng took a look under the dim light. This woman was quite young, and her makeup was naturally heavy. However, because of her smooth and tight skin, she didn't look annoying. She was wearing an all-black dress with off-the-shoulder , hair curled into fluffy curls, half long, scattered on her bare shoulders, Qiao Yicheng felt that the way she held the cup in both hands was a little timid and cute, which formed a subtle contrast with her extremely mature attire. In contrast, he looked at her twice more.Fanny was obviously smart, because of those soft and warm eyes, she positioned herself in a state of restraint throughout the night.Every once in a while, he offered Joe Yicheng a glass, without any extra words or actions.

When he accompanied Liu Chu over again, Liu Chu called Fanny to accompany Qiao Yicheng.Qiao Yicheng blamed Liu for being indiscreet in his heart, but he couldn't speak. Fortunately, Fanny was still so obedient and silent.On the contrary, Qiao Yicheng casually asked her where her hometown was apologetically, and Fanny said: "My hometown is not here, but it doesn't matter if I don't mention it."People like us are disgraceful.Qiao Yicheng was slightly startled, thinking that she spoke very politely, and Fanny immediately caught Qiao Yicheng's surprise.

That night, Fanny slowly told Qiao Yicheng that she was originally admitted to the teacher college, but because of family accidents, she dropped out of school to do such disgraceful things.Qiao Yicheng didn't believe it all, but when this girl narrated her own affairs, her words were flat, and the fact that she couldn't speak out and refused to complain about the suffering made Qiao Yicheng soft-hearted.

The last time I saw Fanny was the day when Qiao Yicheng was detained by the police. On this day, Qiao Yicheng finally reached a contract with Liu Chu about the new column.Qiao Yicheng thought, this was the last time to accompany this person to this kind of place, Qiao Yicheng thought to himself, it was finally over, otherwise, the fame of this life could be sold to this guy.

Fanny seemed to have gotten closer to Qiao Yicheng since she told him about her background last time. After she sat down, Qiao Yicheng told her that this was the last time she came. Fanny was taken aback for a moment, and said , Sure enough, I was not mistaken, Brother Qiao, you are a different person.

When Qiao Yicheng heard that she had changed her name, she didn't care about it, saying that she didn't want to drink too much tonight, so she ordered some snacks for Fanny to eat with her.

It was this night that something happened.Who would have thought that it was such a coincidence, or that life is really far more dramatic than drama.

Qiao Yicheng didn't expect that Fanny would insist that he was a client. Originally, this matter was hard to argue with. He just couldn't figure out how a well-behaved young woman could turn her back so neatly. Remember the dark knife.

When Qiao Yicheng was detained, he was locked up with those ladies at first, and Fanny was sitting beside him.It was the first time for Qiao Yicheng to see her under the bright light. He never imagined that Fanny was so beautiful. There was a kind of sharpness in the bright features, and all the cuteness and immaturity disappeared.Qiao Yicheng said: I didn't expect to call a bitch to teach me a lesson today.

Fanny smiled, and said quickly in a hoarse voice: Next time, learn to be a good boy.Believe in someone you can trust.

Qiao Yicheng said: It's not my turn to teach me a bitch.

The bitch smiled, and there was a kind of shamelessness and fearlessness in the smile: it is true.But let me tell you, a bitch is full of wise words, enough for you to use for a lifetime, because she has seen the ugliest side of human nature.

Qiao Yicheng also laughed: You didn't lie about one thing, you did study for two years, ordinary bitches can't say such educated words.

Song Qingyuan understood the ins and outs of the matter, scolded that Liu Chu to death, and comforted Qiao Yicheng, saying that he could always find out clearly, and the clearer will clear himself.

Qiao Yicheng didn't wait for Ziqing's day. Not long after, the worst thing happened.

In the reporter forum of Xici.com, a post appeared, saying that Mr. Q, a director-level director of the municipal station, was arrested for prostitution. , the most outrageous thing is that the lady had Mr. Q's child, but Mr. Q didn't admit it, so this scandal happened.

Qiao Yicheng became a celebrity this time, and Song Qingyuan turned his brows and eyes away in anger, saying that if news people gossip, they are more vicious than old women.

The brothers and sisters finally knew about this matter.

Sanli was afraid that Qiao Yicheng would be overwhelmed, so she brought her son to live with Qiao Yicheng, while Simei jumped on her feet and said that she wanted to find that shameless woman desperately.Qiao Yicheng said, you don't have to worry, Sanli, don't come here, and Simei, don't make a fuss, let me be quiet.

Erqiang originally planned to go to the Northeast to find Ma Suqin, but because of this incident, all the train tickets he bought were refunded.Er Qiang said that at such a time, it is natural to stand with the elder brother. Er Qiang thought about it hard, and remembered an idiom, saying that he should be the same enemy as the elder brother, "Qi".

Qiao Yicheng laughed out loud, Sanli felt that her elder brother's smile was scary, so she stayed at Qiao Yicheng's house for a week.

Qiao Yicheng has become a news figure in the press circle, enjoying his sudden fame unjustly.

Qiao Yicheng told Er Qiang to go to the Northeast, but Er Qiang failed in the end.I can't go now.

Old man Joe is dead.

Old man Joe couldn't sit up at all. It happened one afternoon. After taking a short nap, he wanted to sit up and take a chamber pot to relieve his hand, but found that he couldn't move. He was like a specimen nailed in a glass frame. Insects that can no longer move even the slightest bit.

Er Qiang was the first to know about it from Qu Aying's son, and he went back to see old man Qiao.

After entering the main room, I could smell a foul smell, and I heard Qu Aying sigh and say, "I'm pulling it on my body again, this is the second time today, and the quilt and clothes I just washed haven't dried yet. Look, this is another one." heap.

Qu Aying's daughter-in-law, Meiqin, occasionally went to see her husband in Erqiang's store, and she was familiar with Erqiang, so she went out quietly with a lot of clothes and quilts, and brought a cup for Erqiang. Tea comes.

Er Qiang stayed with his father for a while, got some bananas and fed them to the old man, but the old man couldn't move, it seemed that he still had an appetite, and he swallowed it eagerly.Seeing this, Qu Aying sighed again and said: Er Qiang, don’t give him bananas anymore, pull it later, I really don’t have the strength to clean it up anymore.

Er Qiang was full of anger, but because of his stupid mouth, he couldn't find the right words to vent his anger, so he only knew how to say: "That can't starve the old man to death."

Qu Aying snorted coldly and said: I have been with your father for so long, and I have worked hard without credit, but I have never been mean to him at all.After being ill for such a long time, whoever takes care of him day and night has to speak with his conscience.

Er Qiang became even more bald.

Before leaving, Er Qiang secretly stuffed a wad of money under the old man's bed, and whispered into his ear: You keep the money, don't let anyone cheat you.If you want to eat something, the daughter-in-law called Mrs. Qu will buy you something behind her back. I think that woman is still a kind person.

Sanli and Simei went to see the old man together.The two first inquired with Qu Aying's daughter-in-law, Meiqin, and went back to the old house on the day Qu Aying came to the hometown.Meiqin felt ashamed when she saw the two of them.This young woman became fat and out of shape after giving birth. On her face like a silver basin, her brows and eyes were tightly squeezed, and her face was full of shame. , very uneasy.It made Sanli feel embarrassed, so she pulled her and said thank you.
