Xu's elder sister's call
Qiao Qiao was so focused on crying that she didn't notice anything wrong with Aunt Joe's way of speaking.
Auntie Qiao had high expectations of her and felt that it was only right for her to stand at a higher position. Qiaoqiao didn't take it to heart, but she was very touched by her parents' support for her.
"Dad, Mom, thank you."
"We're family. What's the point of saying thank you?" Aunt Joe helped Qiao Qiao wipe her tears and squeezed out a smile. "Silly child, the better you are, the happier your parents will be."
Qiao Qiao forced a smile and nodded seriously. "Even if my identity has changed, I will always be a member of the Qiao family. This will never change."
"Hehe, I know you are a filial child."
The Family He hugged each other and cried. Now that everything had been said, the atmosphere was no longer as oppressive as before. Aunt Joe touched Qiao Qiao's beautiful little face and said with emotion, "My Qiao Qiao is so beautiful and outstanding. Now that you have the status of a rich young lady, your family will definitely not make things difficult for you anymore. Your in-laws will definitely like you more and more."
Aunt Joe's words reminded Qiao Qiao of her Mother He's attitude towards her. Ever since she proved that she was the daughter of the Xu family, her attitude towards her had indeed improved.
She couldn't help but feel that the power of a family was really strong, strong enough to cause a person's attitude to undergo a 180-degree change.
She saw the anticipation in Aunt Joe's eyes and didn't want to disappoint her. She nodded and said, "Definitely. “
Aunt Joe laughed again. She suddenly thought of something and said, "Right, since you're now a member of the Xu family, shouldn't we pay a visit to your new family?"
Before Qiao Qiao could say anything, her father shook his head and objected. "Haven't you learned your lesson after what happened last time? Don't cause trouble for the child. If the Xu family resents it, that would be terrible. "
Aunt Joe's face was ashen. She lowered her head and said softly, "I just want to see if that family really treats Qiao Qiao well. Sigh … I know. I won't go again, okay? "
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little tense again, Qiao Qiao quickly tried to smooth things over. "Mom, don't think that way. The Xu family is easy to get along with because they've been away recently. There's no use even if you go. When they come back, I'll tell them about it. Don't worry."
When Aunt Joe heard Qiao Qiao's words, her expression softened. She patted Qiao Qiao's hand and said with a chuckle, "Our Qiao Qiao is still the most considerate."
Father Qiao didn't know what to say. He sighed and said, "You absolutely can't let the He family know about this, especially your in-law. Given her temper, if she finds out that your identity as the daughter of a rich family is fake, I don't know how she'll torture you."
Qiao Qiao nodded. "I know."
If Mother He found out about this, the Family He would never have peace again. In the worst case, she would be banished from the family forever.
Father Qiao yelled at the tightly shut doors of the two rooms. "Listen up, you two. You absolutely can't let this get out. If I catch wind of this outside, you better be prepared!"
Father Qiao knew that his youngest daughter and daughter-in-law were the most troublesome in the family. As long as they kept their mouths shut, this matter wouldn't be leaked.
Hence, it was necessary to take precautions in advance.
"Qiaoqiao, how long are you staying this time?" Auntie Qiao's face was plastered with a smile again.
Qiao Qiao immediately understood what Aunt Joe meant. It was almost the New Year.
She hugged Aunt Joe's thick shoulders and leaned against her affectionately. "I'll stay at home and spend the New Year with you guys. I won't be going anywhere."
"Re-really?" Aunt Joe exclaimed in surprise. However, she was a little hesitant. "Family He won't gossip, right?"
Qiao Qiao shook her head. "I'm not officially married yet, so it's fine for me to stay at home for the New Year. Even if I'm married, it's still acceptable for me to spend the New Year here. Don't worry."
"That's … that's good. That's good." Aunt Joe's face lit up with joy. She chuckled and said, "Mom will be buying New Year goodies in the next few days. Come with me."
Seeing that Aunt Joe had completely recovered, Qiao Qiao was very happy. She smiled gently and said, "Okay."
But plans couldn't keep up with changes.
On the fifth day of her stay at the Qiao residence, Qiao Qiao received a call from the Xu family's eldest sister, Xu Anni, asking her to go to the Xu family for the New Year.
Qiao Qiao was instantly put in a spot. She was currently out shopping for New Year goodies with Aunt Joe. Aunt Joe seemed to have heard something and looked in her direction without blinking.
Qiao Qiao awkwardly turned around and said, "Sister Annie, I want to spend the New Year at home …"
"At home? Which home? "
"My own home."
"Oh … the Qiao family, right?"
"That's right."
"Then spend the New Year with your family. I'll help you deal with Family He. But since you're coming over on the first day of the New Year, if it's convenient for your parents, bring them over too. Everyone can get to know each other," Xu Anni said straightforwardly and firmly.
Qiao Qiao was stunned when she heard that. "Bring my parents over to the Xu family? Can I? "
"Of course. It's good for everyone to get to know each other. If you agree, I'll get someone to book the plane tickets for you."
"There's no need to trouble yourself. We can go over ourselves." The Xu family treated her so well that she didn't want to trouble them.
But Xu Anni said, "Qiao Qiao, we're considered family, right? What trouble is this? It's just a phone call. I still have things to do. That's all. "
With that, Xu Anni hung up the phone.
She was indeed a swift and decisive career woman!
After Qiao Qiao told the Qiao family about this, they were all excited.
"Oh my god, she's going to the Xu family on the first day of the New Year? I don't know how the Xu family compares to Family He! " Qiao Hui was excited. She was wearing new clothes today and was dressed to the nines like a little peacock. "Sis, are there any boys around my age in the Xu family?"
"I'm the youngest in the family." Qiao Qiao laughed dryly. She immediately understood what Qiao Hui meant.
Based on her example, this girl probably saw marrying into a rich family as her lifelong goal.
"Tsk." Qiao Hui looked disappointed. She took a step back and asked, "Are there any unmarried men?"
"…" Qiao Qiao's mouth twitched. She ignored Qiao Hui's words.
There was indeed an unmarried man in the family, and that was Professor Xu.
She thought about it. If Qiao Hui and Professor Xu got married … That image was too intoxicating. She didn't even want to think about it.
When Liu Mengying heard this, she laughed sarcastically and said, "Little sister, are you crazy about marrying into a rich family? What if you really get involved with someone from the Xu family? What would that be? What would your sister call you in the future? Wouldn't that be incest? "
