Chapter 398 Communication

At noon the next day, Li Qiao set off from school, passed through the shopping mall and changed cars, and came down to buy two sets of baby clothes. She saw someone selling sun-dried figs at a roadside stall. She tasted one. The skin was chewy and the inside was soft. Buy the basket together and drive to Shangguan's house.

  The gate of the family courtyard was stopped by the guard.

  She came to meet friends by name.

  The other party asked her to wait for the transmission, and about ten minutes later, Shangguan Qingyuan appeared in sight, and said to the little brother guarding the door: "This girl will come and let you go directly."

"yes."

   "What's in the basket?" He turned to Li Qiao.

   "Small snacks, you may not have eaten them. If you don't want to eat them, I will take them away." Li Qiao said.

  Shangguan Qingyuan chuckled, and she was ashamed to take away the things that were given away. "It's just in time for you to come today. My sister-in-law has been crying at home all day because of Zhong Qiongsui's incident, and she just needs someone to comfort her."

Li Qiao: "I'm not very good at comforting people. There is a saying that you may not like to hear when I say it, but I can't help but say it anyway. If I were Sister Shushu, I would have treated Zhong Qiongsui like that My friend squeezed me out, and I felt that this person was not good at the first meeting. Every word I said was praising Sister Shushu, and actually offended all the people around her. But even if I was slow to respond, my partner would find out and not Drive people away."

  Xiao Jiayue was stolen by someone arranged by Zhong Qiongsui, and Shangguan Qingfeng was mainly responsible.

  Shangguan Qingyuan sighed secretly: "Who would have expected Zhong Qiongsui to have such courage?" Zhong Qiongsui's purpose of approaching his sister-in-law was not pure, they all knew it more or less, and the family had reminded her sister-in-law more than once.

  My sister-in-law didn’t believe it. In order to protect Zhong Qiongsui, she had arguing with her parents and his brother. The gangster who stole the child confessed to Zhong Qiongsui. The sister-in-law still didn’t believe it. She went to the place where Zhong Qiongsui was held last night to ask.

   Being severely ridiculed by Zhong Qiongsui, the whole person is like an eggplant beaten by frost.

   Stupid and pathetic.

  Li Qiao is right after thinking about it: "This incident tells us that people should not be too conceited, nor should they underestimate people's hearts."

  Shangguan Qingyuan: "." Take his family affairs as a warning?

  “.”

  Li Qiao entered Shangguan's home. In the living room, apart from Shangguan Qingfeng and Zhuang Shu she knew, there was also a strange couple in their fifties. Zhuang Shu sat between them, it should be Zhuang's father and Zhuang's mother.

   Shangguan Qingyuan: "Sister-in-law, Li Qiao is here to see you."

  Zhuang Shu raised her head: "Li Qiao is here." She cheered up and introduced her parents to Li Qiao.

   "Hello, uncle and aunt." Li Qiao said.

   "Hey, hello, you are the little daughter-in-law who adopted our Jiayue, come and sit."

   Li Qiao responded and sat in the nearest empty seat.

  Zhuang Shu glanced at the things Li Qiao put on the ground: "Next time you come, don't be so polite."

   "You're welcome, I like the child too, and I will always miss her." Li Qiao said, looking around: "Where is the child?"

   "Upstairs, Auntie is sleeping while watching." Zhuang Shu said.

   Li Qiao let out a oh, and sat down in a well-behaved manner.

  Zhuang's mother then scolded Zhong Qiongsui: "That girl is not very good-looking, and her heart is also vicious. Thank you for treating her sincerely."

  Zhuang Shu lowered her head and cried again when she heard the words.

   Zhuang's father and Zhuang's mother comforted him.

   Before Zhuang Shu's mood stabilized, a child's cry came from upstairs, Li Qiao said, "I'll go and see." She pedaled upstairs, and the child peed and pulled. She and her aunt cleaned up the child together, went to the bathroom to wash their hands, and came out to hug the child.

  Auntie smiled and said, "I can't see that you are young, but you are proficient in taking care of children."

  Li Qiao: "I've taken it before." The child picked up at the door, she and grandma have been taking care of it for nearly a week, and it's Jiayue's turn to start it soon.

  She put the baby in the crib, sat next to her and played with the baby's little hand.

  The child grinned.

  Li Qiao was pleasantly surprised: "She smiled at me, why is she silent?"

   "Children are like this when they are young, and they can only giggle when they grow up."

Li Qiao is very rare. After the child fell asleep, the aunt cleaned the house. She played with the child's little feet. They were plump, white and tender. She suddenly wondered if the child would have smelly feet. She stood up and bent over to smell it. The door was pushed open, and Shangguan Qingfeng walked in.

  She paused, sat down awkwardly, and covered the child with a thin blanket.

  He came over to see the child: "When did you sleep?"

   "Just fell asleep." Li Qiao said.

   Shangguan Qingfeng stood for a while and left. After an unknown period of time, Zhuang Shu came in again with swollen eyes. She said her parents had left.

  Li Qiao silently handed over the handkerchief.

   Zhuang Shu burst into tears again: "I never thought that I would treat my friend who has been with me for more than ten years with sincerity, and treat me like this."

"Over ten years?"

Zhuang Shu nodded: "We have known each other since we were fourteen years old. We went to high school together. Her parents didn't take care of her when they were busy at work. They often ate and drank at my house. At that time, the neighbors praised me for being beautiful. She told me , her parents often joked about her appearance, which made her feel very low self-esteem, but I comforted her. I studied at the Institute of Translation and Translation, and she studied at the Southwest University next door to you. After graduation, she said she wanted to work with me, and I helped her A foreign language for tutoring."

   When she talked about her past with Zhong Qiongsui, she felt worthless for what she had done.

   Li Qiao listened.

   Zhuang Shu finally said: "If it were you, wouldn't you be unable to figure it out?"

   "If you're sad, you won't be confused. I'm just glad that I didn't ruin my family because of her, and the child is still there. And if you recognize a person's true colors, you will be more cautious in making friends in the future." Li Qiao said.

  Zhuang Shu smiled bitterly: "You are more active than me."

"It's not good if you don't be active. You have to live by yourself. In fact, you are luckier than many women. You look good, have a good family background, have a good partner, and don't have any family conflicts. It's better to see the true colors of friends around you now. Will you be strong for the rest of your life?"

  Zhuang Shu hummed lightly, and she only now realized what Li Qiao meant when she came back. She couldn't think of a little girl who was more accurate than her in seeing people.

  ...

  Li Qiao had dinner at Shangguan's house before leaving.

   Shangguan Qingyuan sent her off, and she said: "Just let me down at the school gate."

   "Aren't you going home?"

   "I need to study." Li Qiao got out of the car and left. At the door, he met Ma Hongxiang, who was out shopping, and greeted him happily. The two went back to the dormitory to get books together, and went to the library to review together. One day passed.

   In a blink of an eye, when Qin Jin delivered the ginseng soup on Monday, Li Qiao handed Aunt Xue's relevant documents to him.

   After accepting it, Qin Jin watched her drink the soup: "When will you go home?"

  Li Qiao: "Let's wait for the holidays." The school has notified me, and I will defend in early May. After the internship, I will have an internship.

  She is a graduate student, so she does not need an internship. But the teacher in charge told her that she had better follow the school's arrangement, and only after getting the internship stamp from the unit can she complete this stage of studies, which will help to evaluate outstanding graduates.

   Qin Jin chased her and asked, "Holiday? At the beginning of July? Can you cover your stomach then? And now that the heating is off, can you keep warm by sleeping alone?"

  Li Qiao understood. The last sentence is the key point. He is a hooligan who wants to do something else. Aunt Xue said that after three months, he can properly communicate with each other. After thinking about it, she said, "Today."

   "Okay." Qin Jin couldn't help being happy.

   After Li Qiao finished drinking the soup, he squeezed her shoulders and beat her back again. Li Qiao looked around while enjoying it, so don't be seen by others.
