When they returned home during the winter break, the two young people who had just started dating couldn't hold back their longing for each other and started dating. However, the town was only so big and there weren't many places for them to date. Soon, they were discovered by Qiao Yinan's parents.
Although they were unhappy that their daughter was dating, it was better for their daughter to find a local man than an outsider.
After chatting with Jing Ke, Qiao Yinan's parents felt that Jing Ke was a good person and tacitly agreed to their relationship.
After getting the approval of Qiao Yinan's parents, Jing Ke took Qiao Yinan to see his mother.
Jing Ke came from a single-parent family. His father passed away in a car accident when he was in junior high school, leaving him, his mother, and his sister to depend on each other.
Because of her husband's early death, Jing Ke's mother had to bear the burden of the family alone. Because she was a boring politics teacher, she looked especially serious.
Even when Jing Ke introduced Qiao Yinan to her with a smile, she only nodded and didn't have much of a reaction.
Jing Ke was Qiao Yinan's first love, and it was Qiao Yinan's first time meeting the man's parents. Being treated so coldly by Jing Ke's mother, her first reaction was to wonder if she had done something wrong to be treated this way by Qiao Yinan's mother.
Because she was worried that Jing Ke's mother didn't like her, Qiao Yinan even helped wash the dishes after dinner.
Although Jing Ke felt sorry for Qiao Yinan and went to wash the dishes himself, Jing Ke's mother looked at Qiao Yinan with hostility.
Because he was worried that Qiao Yinan would feel awkward if she continued to stay, Jing Ke took the initiative to go shopping after dinner.
Because they left early, they didn't see Jing Ke's sister, Jing Yue, who was outside tutoring.
The first time she went to Jing Ke's house and was treated like this by Jing Ke's mother, Qiao Yinan was very nervous and asked Jing Ke if his mother didn't like her.
Jing Ke smiled and said that his mother's personality was just like that and it wasn't that she didn't like her.
Qiao Yinan was relieved.
The second time Qiao Yinan went, she saw Jing Yue, but Jing Yue took a fancy to the necklace on Qiao Yinan's neck and asked Qiao Yinan to give it to her.
Although Qiao Yinan liked the necklace very much, she could only give it to Jing Yue in order to leave a good impression on her.
After these two encounters, Qiao Yinan didn't like Jing Ke's mother and Jing Yue and didn't take the initiative to go to their house.
Four years passed in a flash.
Qiao Yinan graduated from Jingke.
Because they had been dating for four years, Qiao Yinan's mother wanted them to settle down and get married as soon as possible.
Qiao Yinan and Jing Ke had been dating for four years. Their love was just like the lyrics. Their relationship grew deeper and deeper. As soon as Qiao Yinan's mother mentioned it, they had the idea of getting married.
Because Jing Ke's father passed away early, it was not easy for his mother to raise two children. Jing Ke took on the responsibility of supporting the family early on. When he was in his first year of university, he worked part-time and no longer asked for living expenses from his family. When he was in his second year of university, he started a small business. When he graduated in his fourth year of university, he already had enough money in his hands.
Although he couldn't afford to buy a house in the city, he could still give Qiao Yinan a decent wedding.
Qiao Yinan and Jing Ke's marriage naturally had to be told to Jing Ke's mother.
Jing Ke's mother had no objection to the marriage of the two children.
However, when it came to the betrothal gifts, Jing Ke's mother directly told Qiao Yinan that since they were going to get married, they definitely had to buy a house. However, if they paid for it, they wouldn't have much money left. Could they ask for less betrothal gifts?
In fact, how could Qiao Yinan's family not know about Jing Ke's family's situation?
Qiao Yinan's father had even prepared the betrothal gifts a long time ago. When they got married, they would directly return them all.
If Jing Ke's family paid for the down payment, they were willing to pay for the renovation.
After all, Qiao Yinan was their only child. Naturally, they hoped that their child would lead a good life.
They could choose not to accept the betrothal gifts, but the person who said so was Qiao Yinan's family. When Jing Ke's mother said it directly, it inevitably gave people the feeling that she looked down on Qiao Yinan.
Qiao Yinan was very unhappy at that time.
However, because she liked Jing Ke too much, Qiao Yinan agreed to Jing Ke's mother's proposal behind her parents' back.
Qiao Yinan married Jing Ke without accepting the betrothal gifts.
After marriage, Jing Ke treated Qiao Yinan well as usual. He even treated Qiao Yinan much better than before because she married him without accepting the betrothal gifts.
After Qiao Yinan got married, she brought a dowry of 300,000 yuan.
Qiao Yinan directly gave all the money to Jing Ke and asked him to use it to start a business.
Jing Ke didn't let Qiao Yinan down. The small company was very successful and had more than doubled in size in half a year.
Coincidentally, Qiao Yinan was pregnant at this time, so Jing Ke asked Qiao Yinan to focus on her pregnancy.
Qiao Yinan's parents had to work, but Jing Ke's mother had already retired because of her age.
Jing Ke thought that Jing Yue was already in university and his mother would inevitably be lonely at home, so he took the initiative to ask her to come here to take care of Qiao Yinan.
His mother and Qiao Yinan could also take care of each other.
What Jing Ke didn't know was that his suggestion was the beginning of Qiao Yinan's disastrous life.
When Jing Ke and Qiao Yinan were together, Jing Ke was more tolerant of Qiao Yinan. Sometimes, when Qiao Yinan acted shamelessly, he would patiently coax her.
On the other hand, Jing Ke's mother was old-fashioned and favored boys over girls. She couldn't stand Jing Ke's tolerance and pampering of Qiao Yinan.
In front of Jing Ke, she couldn't say anything about Qiao Yinan, but when Jing Ke wasn't around, she couldn't find fault with her.
Although Qiao Yinan felt wronged, she always felt that it wasn't easy for Jing Ke's mother to raise Jing Ke. She had always been tolerant of her, but her tolerance only gave her a chance to take advantage of her.
When she was pregnant, because of Jing Ke's mother, Qiao Yinan was in a bad mood and it was difficult for her to give birth.
When the child was born and she saw that it was a girl, Jing Ke's mother didn't take good care of Qiao Yinan.
Qiao Yinan didn't receive good care, so she suggested that Jing Ke find a confinement nanny for her. Who would have thought that the confinement nanny would be chased away by Jing Ke's mother on the second day? She even scolded Qiao Yinan, saying that Qiao Yinan was so delicate after giving birth to a girl. If she gave birth to a boy, what would happen?
Jing Ke's mother's actions completely disappointed Qiao Yinan.
Qiao Yinan thought that Jing Ke's mother would treat her well if she treated her well.
But she didn't expect that when she treated her well, she would only think that she was easy to bully and take advantage of her.
Qiao Yinan resisted for the first time and even requested to find another confinement nanny in front of Jing Ke.
Qiao Yinan's first resistance scared Jing Ke's mother, but because Qiao Yinan was bullied, she pulled out of her confinement period.
