Since Chu Shengmei figured it out that day, her whole spirit changed immediately.
She no longer stays alone in the house sadly, nor does she eat or drink all day long.
She tried to get herself out bit by bit, bit by bit to return to normal.
When her brother and sister-in-law suddenly figured it out, they were very surprised and curious at the same time.
However, in order not to irritate her, both of them were very empathetic and chose not to ask why.
Thinking of the stupid thing she did that day, she actually had no face to say it, and at the same time she was very grateful that Qiao Zhenmin not only saved her life, but also helped her keep the secret.
When she came this time, she heard her brother say that Qiao Zhenmin is having financial difficulties and he wants to apply for a loan in Nanshan County.
Qiao Zhenmin opened the door pretending to be awake, and stretched out and yawned, "Hey, Katsumi, why are you here? I just woke up."
In recent years, various provinces, cities and towns have been seeking development. In order to encourage entrepreneurship, some local governments have actively supported merchant loans. Among them, Nanshan County has the best loan preferential policies.
So he came to Nanshan County last week and rented a house here, planning to put the company here in the future.
When Chu Shengmei heard what he said, she glanced over his shiny hair and pursed her lips and smiled: "Brother Zhenmin sleeps and uses wax to make his hair. This habit is really special!"
Qiao Zhenmin: "..."
A rush of blood surged up, and his face suddenly turned red into Guan Gong.
Looking at him like this, Chu Shengmei laughed more and more.
The spring sunshine casts down from the eaves, and her bright red lips are like delicate red roses in the sunshine, attracting people's eyes.
Qiao Zhenmin looked at her smiling like a flower, and the throbbing that night came back again, staring straight at her face.
Chu Shengmei laughed for a while before she stopped, and said a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry Brother Zhenmin, I didn't mean to..."
Qiao Zhenmin grinned and said: "It's okay, smile whenever you want, and you look good when you smile."
When these words came out, the two of them were stunned at the same time.
Qiao Zhenmin couldn't wait to slap himself. He just thought about the latter sentence in his heart, but he didn't want to say it.
Who knows, looking at her face, she said it unknowingly!
Chu Shengmei's pale face rose with two blushes, and she coughed: "Thank you for the compliment. By the way, I have something to tell Brother Zhenmin when I come over this time."
Qiao Zhenmin quickly moved her body away and let her in: "You come in quickly, I'll bring you a cup of tea."
He said that he hurriedly turned around and walked towards the kitchen. Who knows he didn't take two steps, he staggered under his feet, he almost fell enough to eat shit!
At this point, Qiao Zhenmin felt a little desperate for himself.
He wanted to make a good impression in front of her, but he was stupid from the beginning!
When Chu Shengmei saw this, she wanted to laugh again.
Having known each other for so many years, it was the first time that she discovered that Brother Zhenmin was such an "interesting" person.
Qiao Zhenmin blushed and poured a glass of water over, and then sat down opposite her and said, "I heard your brother said that you have returned to Baocheng County. Why did you come here suddenly? Did something happen?"
Chu Shengmei took a sip of warm water and said, "Nothing happened. I heard my brother say that you are planning to start a company with a loan?"
Qiao Zhenmin nodded: "I am very optimistic about the transportation industry. If we can occupy the market first, the profits will be very substantial!"
He hurried over to Nanshan County to apply for a loan as soon as the year passed, just to start the company as soon as possible.
Both the Shen family and the Huo family were rich, but he never thought about borrowing from them.
Favor is used once less once.
What's more, no matter whether it is the Shen family or the Huo family, they were only befriended the Qiao family because of Da Qiao, not because of him Qiao Zhenmin.
Chu Shengmei put the water cup on the table and said: "It sounds very interesting, Brother Zhenmin, tell me in detail."
Qiao Zhenmin thought her attitude was a bit strange, but didn't think too much.
If he were replaced by someone else, perhaps he would still be on guard, but for the Chu Family, there would be no need for that.
After listening to Chu Shengmei, she took her purse in front of her, opened the zipper, and took out three dozen from the inside to unite.
Then he handed it over and said, "Here is a total of 3,000 yuan. I plan to invest in Zhenmin's transportation company. I don't know if Zhenmin will give me this opportunity to make money?"
Qiao Zhenmin looked at the money in her hand in shock, and then set his eyes on her face: "...Do you know what you are doing?"
Chu Shengmei curled her lips and smiled: "Of course! I'm sober now. It's useless for me to keep the money. It's better to invest in your company. Then you don't have to worry about capital, and I can earn some money to support it. daughter."
Qiao Zhenmin seemed to be pinched in his throat, watching her for a long time without speaking.
He knew that she did this to make him unburdened.
If she lends money to him, he will definitely refuse, because Chu Tianbai also said before that he would lend him money, but he refused.
Brothers and relatives have to settle accounts, let alone relatives and friends, he would rather borrow money from the bank, even if it fails in the future, he will only owe money to the country, and does not need to bear so many debts.
But now that Chu Shengmei sent the money to him, she also figured out an excuse to block his refusal. How could he not be moved?
Chu Shengmei was a little embarrassed by him, stretched out her hand and stroked her hair and said: "To be honest, I did this to thank Brother Zhenmin for saving me last time, but it is true that I want to make some money, you I also know that now I am a woman who needs to raise a child, and there will be in-laws to take care of in the future, so I have to prepare for the future!"
She had been wondering why Du Zhuo became suicide before, and she didn't care about the future. After returning to her husband's house this time, she truly felt that without Du Zhuocheng, she was just an outsider in her husband's house!
In the past few months, her parents-in-law still felt that Du Zhuocheng's death was caused by her, and her words were extremely harsh and mean. She felt very uncomfortable when she heard them. If she were to change to the previous one, she would have torn them away!
But now she can't, she must be with her daughter!
But she won't stay in her husband's house all her life, let alone she can't stand it, and she doesn't want her daughter to grow up in that kind of environment.
Therefore, she has to work hard to make money and make herself strong, so strong that her in-laws will no longer dare to talk nonsense in front of her!
So she came over.
It was just to repay the kindness that Brother Zhenmin thought, her purpose seemed a bit impure. Thinking of this, her face showed a shameful expression.
But Qiao Zhenmin heaved a sigh of relief when she heard what she said: "In this case, I will accept the money. Don't worry, I will not let you lose your money!"
Chu Shengmei's most worried thing is that he will reject herself. At this time, hearing his words, she couldn't help but laugh happily: "Then I'm just waiting to be a rich woman!"
"Definitely!" Qiao Zhenmin said while looking for paper and pen, ready to write an IOU.
Chu Shengmei said no at first, but with his insistence, she finally accepted the loan note.
It was noon after it was set up.
Qiao Zhenmin looked outside and said with a relaxed tone: "It's all time for dinner. I invite you to dinner as a thank you for trusting me so much!"
Chu Shengmei didn't shy away, and replied heartily: "Okay, I just happen to be hungry!"
Qiao Zhenmin quickly picked up his jacket, locked the door and the two walked out.
——
In the past, the best place to eat was the state-owned restaurant, but now there are many more restaurants on the street. Qiao Zhenmin chose a newly opened restaurant.
Chu Shengmei felt that it was too wasteful. The company has not been set up yet. Now a penny should be split into two and spent. How can it be wasted?
When Qiao Zhenmin watched her "talking endlessly", not only did he not feel irritated, but he felt that she would live a good life, and the corners of his mouth could not help but lifted up.
When he arrived at the restaurant, he ordered two meats, one dish and one soup.
Chu Shengmei began to mutter again: "Brother Zhenmin, don't dislike me nagging. If you make money in the future, I won't care about you what you want to spend, but now you are so extravagant!"
There are only two of them. Why do you need four dishes?
Qiao Zhenmin grinned and said: "It's rare to invite you to a meal, how can I be too shabby? Don't worry, I don't usually come to such a place to eat alone!"
I came here because of you.
He didn't say the following words, but Chu Shengmei seemed to feel something, she lowered her eyes and said nothing.
The atmosphere was a bit ambiguous for a while.
At this moment, a noise came from the door.
"Waiter, want a big table, there are a dozen of us in total!"
The waiter immediately greeted him with a smile: "Here, please."
Because there were too many people on the other side, there was a lot of noise, and Qiao Zhenmin naturally cast his gaze over, and then saw one person-Shi Qinxin.
He divorced Shi Qinxin for seven years. After that, the two families never contacted her again. He never saw her again. Later, he heard that she had married to another province.
After seven years, goodbye now, it feels like a world away.
Shi Qinxin is a bit fatter than before, her figure is obviously out of shape, her face is a little haggard, and the dark circles under her eyes look very scary.
When he looked over, Shi Qinxin happened to look over, and the eyes of the two hit the air.
Shi Qin trembled in her heart and body, and stepped on the instep of the woman next to her.
The woman was very upset and said, "How do you walk? Are your eyes for good-looking?"
Shi Qinxin showed an awkward smile: "Sorry aunt, I... I didn't mean it!"
Being scolded like this in front of her ex-husband made her feel extremely embarrassed and ashamed.
She couldn't wait to dig a pit and bury herself!
Qiao Zhenmin didn't take pleasure in the misfortune. He retracted his gaze and pretended not to see the scene just now.
He was very angry that she lied and shifted the responsibility to Xiao Wan'er, but now the two have nothing to do, and the matter has passed so long, he has already let go.
Shi Qin felt relieved as he lowered his head, and at the same time an inexplicable disappointment surged.
After her divorce from Qiao Zhenmin, her life in her natal family was very sad. Her family said coldly that she should not lie, let alone have a relationship with her ex-husband, which caused her natal family to lose face with her.
Neighbors around him always look at her with strange eyes, and all kinds of rumors are like a sharp knife, cutting her blood.
She regretted it a long time ago. From the moment Qiao Zhenmin wanted to divorce her, she regretted it, but there is no regret medicine in the world, and everyone is responsible for their actions!
She once wanted to go to Qiao Zhenmin and beg him to forgive herself, but she knew that even if she knelt in front of him, he would never forgive herself!
Later, a relative introduced a man from another province to her, and she agreed without thinking.
At that time she just wanted to stay away from everything around her, away from all rumors.
Her current man is ten years older than her, and she has a son and a daughter with her deceased ex-wife.
The worst thing in the world is to be a stepmother. Every time she is made things difficult by her stepson and stepdaughter, she will think of Xiaowan'er and the little girl who smiles at her quietly and shyly.
She wished she slapped herself severely!
At this moment, her gaze shifted to Chu Shengmei, who was sitting opposite Qiao Zhenmin, and a complicated light flashed under her eyes.
The next moment I heard that woman talked to her and said, "What are you doing? I'm in a trance all day long. You haven't heard me calling you so many times. Are you deaf?
Shi Qinxin came back to her senses and apologized again.
The woman was reluctant and reluctant: "Alin, you have to take care of your daughter-in-law, you are so incapable of life, I suspect that she is deliberately against me!"
When these words landed, a man in his forties immediately cursed Shi Qinxin.
Shi Qin's face flushed red, but did not reply.
Things are wrong.
Qiao Zhenmin sighed softly.
Chu Shengmei noticed something wrong with his expression, and whispered: "What's wrong with you?"
Qiao Zhenmin smiled at her and said, "It's okay, I just saw an old person."
"Old friend?" Chu Shengmei wanted to look back, but he stopped it.
Qiao Zhenmin said: "Don't look back, it's my ex-wife."
Chu Shengmei was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that the so-called ex-wife was not Chen Qiaoqiao, but another woman surnamed Shi.
Speaking of which, his marriage was actually quite rough, one cuckolded him, and the other demon.
Although she and Du Zhuocheng seem to be very beautiful, but in the end he abandoned himself and ended his life in such a tragic way, making her have to doubt that the happiness she once thought was just her wishful thinking.
Qiao Zhenmin saw her look frustrated because of her words, and immediately tried various jokes to make her happy.
Chu Shengmei quickly smiled again.
Shi Qin, who was sitting on the other end, saw their laughter melted, and his heart was cut like a knife.
——
The new semester begins again.
Xiao Dongyun and the twins are now eight years old, but Xiao Dongyun and Xue Anxu are in the second grade.
The little bookworm Qiao Anjie skipped to the fifth grade even though he was only eight years old because of his clever brain.
Recently, the school received a notice that a leader from the Education Department of Beijing would come to inspect and ask each school to arrange a program.
The leaders of Yunlai Elementary School were excited and worried.
The excitement is that this is a great opportunity that is hard to come by.
If the leaders of the capital city can boast, there will be no need to worry about the future of the school and their future.
What's worrying about is, what kind of show should I do?
The principal led the director and the teacher to hold countless meetings before finally deciding to sing the chorus.
Although the chorus program is a bit old-fashioned, it is sure to win. Everyone wants to stand out in such an opportunity, but if a trouble is not good, it can easily be self-defeating and eventually become a joke in the education industry.
The leaders are accustomed to the old and dare not to innovate. Not to mention the teachers, they have no status, as long as they obey the arrangements.
So the show was finalized, and the next step was to choose candidates for the cantata.
As for the chorus, the first thing you should do is to sing nicely. This is the most basic. Otherwise, you should sing like a duck and run out of tune everywhere. Isn't this a disgusting person?
In addition to having a nice voice, you also need to find a few good-looking people to serve as the facade, and arrange the good-looking people in the front, so that the leader will feel pleasing to the eyes in the past.
After flipping through the selection, Xiao Dongyun and the twins were all selected.
Needless to say, Xiao Dongyun's voice, looking at the entire town, you may not be able to find someone whose voice is sweeter than hers.
As for the twins, they are responsible for their looks.
Everything was ready, but something went wrong during rehearsal.
The reason is that Xiao Dongyun was selected as the lead singer, but the leader felt that Xiao Dongyun was a bit unsightly, and standing in the first row was unsightly.
It's a polite statement to say that it's not pretty. To be honest, they think Xiao Dongyun looks very ugly!
The children of Qiao's family are famous for their good-looking, and Da Qiao is smart and good-looking, and has been a role model for parents in educating their children for so many years.
Dong Lin and the twins are also very good-looking, with fair skin and handsome features, a bit more delicate than the children in the city.
Except for the second room, the other three children in the big room, as well as Qiao Dongwan, all grow up to the horizontal line, but the whole family has the exception of Xiao Dongyun.
Xiao Dongyun's skin is very dark, her small eyes and nose are not good-looking, and her face is not good-looking. If she didn't look like her mother, everyone would definitely think she was picked up.
Generally, the lead singer is in the most central position, but the leader can discuss and discuss, and finally decide to arrange Xiao Dongyun in the last row.
And arranged another good-looking girl as the lead singer, but asked that girl not to make a sound, and just lip-synched.
When Xiao Dongyun knew it, she protested on the spot: "I am the lead singer but can't stand in the first row. Why do you still claim that my voice was made by someone else?"
The female teacher leading the team said: "You are a student, so you can do whatever the teacher arranges. Where are there so many and why?"
Xiao Dongyun was not frightened at all: "The puppet will do what others arrange. I am a human being. I have a mind and a brain. I will not accept your arrangement unless you tell me something. !"
The first time the female teacher saw such a rebellious child, her face flushed with anger: "You... Qiao Dongyun, if you do this again, then don't participate in the rehearsal!"
Xiao Dongyun snorted from her nostrils: "If you don't participate, you won't participate. Do you think I am rare? An Jie, An Xu, let's go!"
The two brothers Qiao Anjie and Xue Anxu were also very unconvinced with the teacher's arrangement for Xiao Dongyun.
At this time, hearing Xiao Dongyun's call, the two immediately went out of the team, and the three left without looking back.
The female teacher was so angry that she almost didn't come up, and died on the spot!
The female teacher couldn't swallow this breath!
She felt that if she didn't teach Xiao Dongyun a lesson today, other students would definitely learn from it in the future.
So she turned around and rushed out of the classroom, ran to the office and reported the matter to the dean.
The dean of teaching was also very angry when he heard the words and slapped the table "boom": "It is unreasonable. Such students can completely dismiss them!"
When the female teacher heard the words, her chest was tall, and she felt that she had done a very right thing.
So the two rushed to the gate of the school arrogantly and stopped Xiao Dongyun and the twins who wanted to go home with their schoolbags on their backs.
Xue Anxu said angrily: "What are you doing?"
Before the dean could answer, Xiao Dongyun replied: "They must want to kidnap us and abuse us. Let's go to the police!"
Dean:"……"
Female teacher: "..."
After Xiao Dongyun finished talking with the twins, she slipped away from the dean's arm, screaming that she was going to call the police.
"Quickly, stop them!"
The dean is so angry that he is about to have a heart attack!
If this were to go to the police, his reputation in his career would be over!
He directed the female teacher and the security guard to stop the three little things in Qiao's house.
Although the three moved quickly, they were only eight-year-old children after all, and they were quickly caught.
Xiao Dongyun's face was black and red with anger: "You let me go, otherwise I tell my milk, she can punch you to the west with one punch!"
The dean's pig-headed face was flushed with anger again: "Unreasonable! I want to teach you!"
After speaking, he raised his hand high and was about to hit Xiao Dongyun on the head.
At this moment, Da Qiao, who came to school to pick up his younger siblings, appeared!
Da Qiao was so angry that he was about to explode: "You stop me!"
"Sister Da Qiao, help!" Xiao Dongyun burst into tears when she saw her sister came.
The twins caught by the security guard also cried.
Da Qiao sees his younger brother and sister being bullied, how can he calm down?
She rushed up, kicked a security guard, and rescued the twins who were closer to her.
Then he rushed up and hit the dean's face with a punch!
The dean makes a pig cry!
But this is not over yet, Da Qiao lifted the dean of education in one hand, then bowed his head and said to his younger siblings: "Go, go to the police station!"
So she was like carrying a wild boar, easily carrying the dean of education, and rushing towards the police station with her three younger siblings.
Female teacher: "..."
security guard:"……"
The dean's hair was wafting in the air, screaming as if he was forced to x: "You...let me down!"
put?
That is impossible!
Da Qiao brought his younger brother and sister to the police station.
The policemen at the police station were shocked when they saw this picture.
Da Qiao entered the police station, and then threw the person to the ground, pointing to the dean of the teacher with a sleazy face and said: "I want to report the crime, he beat the students!"
The dean, whose hair was blown into the sky, clutched his nauseous chest, gasped and defended: "...I don't!"
Xiao Dongyun: "You have it! You still want to hit me!"
The twins also nodded: "Yes! You, the female teacher, and the security guard caught us. If it weren't for my sister, we would have been killed by you now!"
Dean:"…………"
The dean was trembling with anger, but he was not afraid at this time.
He felt that the people at the police station would definitely not listen to the nonsense of a few children, and his nephew was a policeman at the police station, and the other party would definitely not let him get into trouble.
But when he found out that the director of the police station was the Qiao family's acquaintance, he panicked.
The incident was so loud that both the principal and the vice principal were alarmed.
In order for the Qiao family to withdraw the report, they had to make various guarantees and concessions.
First of all, the teaching director, female teacher, and security were fired. Secondly, the children of Qiao's family were exempted from paying tuition until graduation.
In the end, that was to let Xiao Dongyun stand in the first row and sing.
School leaders must not nod in tears. This is the fault of the school. Once the school goes out, the school is really over.
Soon the day when the leaders of Beijing came to inspect, the chorus of Yunlai Elementary School was very successful and won rounds of applause.
The day after the performance, a man in a suit appeared at the door of Qiao's house.
The man introduced himself as Ren Kezhong, the outreach director of the Beijing Choir, who was responsible for recruiting talents.
He felt that Xiao Dongyun's voice was very sweet, like a natural sound, if she stayed in a small place all the time, it would be a waste of her talent.
He hoped that the Qiao family would let him take Xiao Dongyun to the choir in Beijing.
