Rebirth: 1977

The storm in the Xia family came quickly and went away quickly.

With a position like Xia Minglei's, the pressure he exudes is enough to suppress Qiao Jingyu's temper.

The key point is that the couple have been sleeping in separate rooms for many years, which is a tacit understanding reached between the two.

Qiao Jingyu was angry about this matter, but he couldn't bring himself to speak it out loud.

After hearing his little daughter's persuasion, Xia Minglei snorted coldly and went into his room. The heavy 'bang' sound of the door closing frightened Qiao Jingyu.

Then she went into her room, covered herself with the quilt and sobbed loudly.

She didn't dare to really put the blame on her man.

Not to mention that she was just making things up now. If she was really caught cheating in bed, she couldn't and dared not break up with her man.

If things really get out of hand, not only will it bring shame to the whole family, but the relationship between the couple will completely break down.

An even worse outcome would be affecting Xia Minglei's career.

Qiao Jingyu didn't dare to gamble, because a man's honor and disgrace were not just his own.

Their children will be severely affected.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Qiao Jingyu got up with red and swollen eyes and a pale face to prepare breakfast.

The nanny at home only has a day off throughout the year, the first day of the new year.

Starting from the second day of the Chinese New Year, some people go to work and start taking turns to rest.

It was not until the eighth day of the New Year that everyone returned to work.

Xia Yingying was terrified, worried that her parents would reveal the truth, knowing that it was her words that triggered the family war.

She had always been sleeping in, but for the first time in her life, when she heard her mother getting up, she also got up early.

"Mom, happy new year to you!"

She took out a big red envelope wrapped in red paper and handed it to Qiao Jingyu:

"Mom, you've worked hard. This is a red envelope for you."

Xia Yingying gave a flattering smile and coquettishly handed the red envelope to her mother.

Years ago, Hou Yong sent someone to give Xia Yingying a passbook with 200,000 yuan in it.

He also gave her 10,000 yuan in cash.

Therefore, she must flatter her mother well these few days. When her father returns to Pengcheng, the time will pass and the bomb she has buried will slowly not explode again.

When Qiao Jingyu saw her little daughter, who had been asking her for money, actually took the initiative to give her a red envelope, she was stunned.

She didn't hesitate to open the tightly wrapped red paper and found that there were actually two hundred yuan inside.

During the Spring Festival in 1985, two hundred yuan was still a lot of money.

"Yingying, where did you get the money? Your father gave it to you, right?" Qiao Jingyu sighed. How could a mother always feel grudge against the daughter she had raised with all her heart?

She was also someone who could not resist being coaxed: "Forget it, your father has given me money, this is for you, just accept it.

You will need money for many purposes in the future. Now that you are an adult, it is not convenient to ask your mother for money every time.

Keep it for yourself.”

What she didn't say was that this time Xia Minglei gave her a full 20,000 yuan when he returned home.

Twenty thousand yuan in 1985 was not a small amount of money.

This was the first time she received so much money from her man at one time. Now think about it, if Xia Minglei had other women outside, how could he still have the money to bring home?

The temper she had last night seemed to be completely groundless and a big deal.

The breath that was stuck in my heart suddenly dissipated, and then I thought about it and felt a little scared. Had I offended my man like this?

What if he turns against me?

Looking at his daughter, who was smiling and circling around him, a thought came to his mind: Aren’t they father and daughter having a very good relationship now?

Then I can take this opportunity to make peace with my daughter. With Yingying acting as a peacemaker, the man should not be against me again, right?

"Mom, this money was not given to me by Dad, it was earned by me and my friends from doing a small business.

Don't worry, I won't ask you for living expenses anymore. I can give you 200 yuan every month as my living expenses at home."

"What? You're doing a small business outside? Is it safe? Does your dad know?

Will it affect his work?"

Although Qiao Jingyu's salary is only about 200 yuan per month, as the union chairman of a large company, his various rewards and extra income add up to more than his salary every month.

The New Year's goods distributed at the end of the year, the bonuses, and the flattery and filial piety given by those below you, add up to easily tens of thousands of dollars a year.

Therefore, a family like theirs will never be short of money.

That is how it is, Xia Yingying will be given a fixed amount of living expenses every month.

It’s just that she has developed a habit of spending lavishly, and she would ask for more without hesitation after using it.

At this time, more and more people were starting small businesses outside, and more and more people were resigning from Qiao Jingyu's unit or taking unpaid leave.

But those are ordinary workers whose families are in real financial difficulties.

Some of them are originally salespeople in the company. They come into contact with many business people and have more opportunities.

But in their circle, whose child would go out to do business?

"No, Yingying, don't go out to do business. It's too risky and there are too many bad people. Mom won't say you're just eating for free at home anymore.

Don't worry, your parents can support you. From now on, let's not even think about Xia Zijian, as there are many marriage partners in Beijing who are more ideal than him.

It's a good opportunity for you to take advantage of your dad being at home and get in touch with those girls from similar social backgrounds who have boys of marriageable age.

Finding a suitable partner to marry is the serious matter. "

Xia Yingying got anxious when she heard what her mother said, "Mom, I don't want to rely on you for support, I want to make money on my own and build a career in the future.

Moreover, I found that I actually really like Xia Zijian. Even if it is impossible for us, for the time being, I don’t want to get married through blind dates with others.”

Qiao Jingyu widened his eyes and patiently persuaded:

"Why won't you obey, kid?

Xia Zijian is indeed a good person, but now you can never go back.

If we continue to argue, our two families will never be able to have a good relationship in the future.

With Old Master Ye around, we can’t offend Ye Tianshui now. The relationship between your father and them can’t be strained.

If we didn't have so many concerns, we wouldn't want you to suffer any injustice.

Besides, if your business gets out, it will have a bad impact on your father."

Xia Yingying shook her head to defend herself.

“Mom, times have changed, and now everyone respects people who start their own business.

Besides, my small business is very legitimate and will never bring shame to my father."

Xia Yingying was not afraid of her father knowing what she was saying now. The so-called business was just an excuse, and her father knew it.

Qiao Jingyu was about to get angry, but then she thought about her husband's attitude and it would be even more troublesome if the mother and daughter started arguing again.

She was also thinking about easing the relationship between her and her man through her daughter.

Then he took a breath,

“Yingying, let’s not talk about this for now.

Today is New Year's Day, and our family should be happy.

After the New Year, we will discuss it with your father and hear what he has to say. We will then follow his decision, okay? ”

Of course Xia Yingying agreed. Her father knew how he made money and would definitely not object or stop her.

I nodded and agreed immediately.

At this time, the doorbell rang. Qiao Jingyu went to open the door, and Xia Yingying took the opportunity to slip back to her room, thinking about how to prevent her mother from letting the secret out in front of her father in the next few days.
