Hearing this, Ruan Wan raised her eyebrows, looked back, and sure enough, Shen Ziyu was poking behind the two like a stake, with his hands in the pockets of his coat. She couldn't help but secretly slander that this guy was really a cat, and he didn't make a sound when he walked.

As they looked at each other, their eyes naturally met.

Ruan Wan was slightly stunned and nodded politely to him, the latter didn't know what he was doing, he was stunned, and then, as if he wanted to turn his head, he stopped his movements strongly and nodded at her.

Ruan Wan: "......"

Delusion?

Shen Ershao actually greeted her well, this is really ...... The sun is coming out of the west.

But she just thought about it in her heart, and she didn't say it directly. First, they don't count, and secondly, Shen Ziyu helped her out before she came, so it's always a bit unkind to joke people.

Qiao Xinyuan, who was paying attention to the cat family wholeheartedly, didn't notice the subtle atmosphere around him, and only continued to plead: "Brother Ziyu, do me a favor." ”

Shen Ziyu, who came back to his senses, pursed his lips, and said with a somewhat impatient attitude: "What are you doing to catch it well?" ”

"How cute the kitten is." Jo folded her hands together and looked at him pleadingly, saying, "Just grab one and touch it for my sister and me!" ”

Shen Ziyu looked at Qiao Xinyuan, turned his head and looked at Ruan Wan quickly, and said, "...... Wait a minute. ”

"Thank you, Brother Ziyu!"

Immediately, Ruan Wan and Qiao Xinyuan saw Shen Ziyu walking towards the cat nest, cough, in the eyes of the latter, the other party's back is called a tall, simply a talent in the cat catching world!

However......

Ruan Wan was surprised to find that with Shen Ziyu's approach, the female cat actually jumped up and made a threatening sound of "woo-woo" from her mouth, as if to say "Little thief!" Get out of here! "Same.

Shen Ziyu's footsteps paused, as if he wanted to stop, but in the end he still walked forward, tentatively bending down and stretching out his hand.

Ruan Wan saw that the back of his hand was also full of cat's paw marks, which was more than Qiao's wish, a typical "hand-cheap patient".

"Meow !!"

She-cat pounces!

Shen Ziyu hurriedly withdrew his hand.

"Ah, I remember......" Qiao Xinwan didn't remember something he accidentally forgot about until this time, "Brother Ziyu has not liked animals since he was a child......"

Ruan Wan: "...... Is that so? ”

"Yes, yes." Joe nodded his head again and again, and gave a very convincing piece of evidence, "I went to the zoo with him when I was a child, and the gorilla saw him actually throwing things out!" ”

Ruan Wan: "...... Burst! "How disgusted is this?!

"Joe's wish!" Shen Ziyu, who was accidentally exposed to the black history, gritted his teeth and said, "Do you still want to touch the kitten." ”

I have to say that these words came out of the mouth of Shen Ershao, who has always been majestic, and the deterrent power is really too insufficient, and he is obviously suspected of being annoyed and angry.

Ruan Wan looked at Shen Ershao, who was slightly red at the tips of her ears, and thought to herself that if she could label her personal attributes, then he would undoubtedly be "not close to people and ghosts". It's obviously a cat he raised, but he can't touch it, and it's also tragic. The most cheating thing is that this guy seems to still love face, and he said everything he promised to help, so he couldn't say "I can't do it", so he could only continue to do it.

Ruan Wan almost sympathized: This guy is not easy......

Seeing that the female cat was about to explode into a hedgehog, Ruan Wan took a few steps forward, and said "Mi|Mi" in her mouth, and patted Shen Ziyu by the way, signaling him to step back.

Shen Ziyu: "......"

After some tossing, Ruan Wan finally succeeded in "borrowing" a kitten from the female cat.

Joe wished to hold the pure white kitten, and both eyes were about to narrow into crescents.

Ruan Wan, who "retired after success", took the cat food brought by Shen Ziyu to feed the female cat, and the latter was also arrogant, first glanced at the "Shen Breeder", and then slowly ate it by Ruan Wan's hand, with a "uncle" driving, well, Shen Ershao is the shovel officer it sits.

Ruan Wan couldn't help but laugh when she looked at this scene, but no matter how angry Shen Ziyu was, he wouldn't be able to deal with a cat. In other words, he seemed to be in a good mood, squatting beside Ruan Wan, and also stretched out his hand to grab cat food.

"Meow !!"

There is no doubt that he was regarded as a "food grabber".

Shen Ziyu: ==

Ruan Wan: =口=

Seeing this miraculous development, Ruan Wan couldn't help but ask, "How did you feed it before?" ”

Shen Ziyu glanced at her, stretched out his hand to grab the cat food bag, and leaned down.

...... "Okay."

Soon after, Joe, who was reluctant to give up his wishes, was finally willing to return the kitten, and the three of them stood up and prepared to leave.

Ruan Wan hesitated, but still said to Shen Ziyu: "The weather here is cold, at most it will be snowing in another month, if it is convenient, it is good to move them to another location." ”

Snow......

As soon as Shen Ziyu heard this word, he frowned.

He hates snow.

It has nothing to do with being afraid of water, it is only out of instinct.

Ruan Wan understood his obvious expression of disgust as hating her for "meddling in his affairs", so she didn't say anything more to please him.

Nothing to say all the way.

However, what made Ruan Wan speechless was that she followed Qiao's wish to go back to Qiao's house, and Shen Ziyu actually followed. But then again, he is very familiar with the Qiao family, and it is quite normal for him to come and play.

"Ziyu is here." Su Fanghua greeted him with a smile, "Come in and sit." ”

Shen Ziyu nodded and shouted, "Aunt Su." ”

He is a bear to a bear, and there is no shortage of politeness when he should be.

"You stinky boy," Old Man Qiao stood by the railing on the second floor, looking down at Shen Ziyu who walked in, usually with a smile under his eyebrows, "It's been a long time." ”

It is also strange to say that Old Man Qiao, who is so serious about his son and grandson that he doesn't have a good face, likes Shen Ziyu very much, and he can be said to be kind and pleasant. But this is not for the sake of Old Man Shen's face, because everyone here knows that the two old men have not dealt with each other since they were young.

"Grandpa Joe."

Compared with the address to Su Fanghua just now, Shen Ziyu's voice obviously had a lot of emotion.

"Nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace." Old Man Qiao smiled and said, "Didn't you cause trouble somewhere?" ”

“…… No. ”

"Really?" Old Man Qiao said that he didn't believe it.

The rest of the people are wiping sweat, which shows how deeply Shen Ershao's "troublemaker" characteristics are.

"Since you're here, let's stay and have a meal."

“…… Well. Shen Ziyu only hesitated for a second, and then nodded very happily in response to this matter.

When Old Man Qiao saw this, he became more and more happy.

Ruan Wan arrived at ten o'clock, and she had been teasing the cat with Qiao Xinyuan for a long time, and it was just lunchtime. Qiao Jingwei was usually not at home at noon, and Qiao Yi happened to be absent today, so there were only five people at the dinner table: Old Man Qiao, Su Fanghua, Qiao Xinyuan, Ruan Wan and Shen Ziyu. Although Wu's mother's craftsmanship is not as good as her grandmother's, it is not bad, at least it is better than the canteen - probably because she has been eating in the canteen for a long time, Ruan Wan actually has a rare sweet feeling when she eats this time.

The table was still very quiet, only Old Man Qiao occasionally asked Shen Ziyu some words, and Qiao wished to say a few words naturally.

Su Fanghua has always been afraid of Old Man Qiao, and there has never been much communication between the two.

And Ruan Wan was concentrating on enjoying the rare "big meal", thinking about when she had to sneak around in the bedroom to get some tableware to improve the food.

Halfway through a meal, a table of people suddenly heard the sound of "dong dong" footsteps.

This is someone running into the house from outside.

Old Man Qiao frowned, and the rest of the people were also puzzled, and they saw a familiar figure directly transferred from the living room to the dining room, followed by the panting Mother Wu.

This familiar figure is none other than Qiao Shuqi.

After all, this should be the second time Ruan Wan has seen her in her life. No way, she didn't live in Qiao's house, and she only came here once or twice a year in the past years, and it was really normal to not meet her. Not to mention, she didn't want to meet Qiao Shuqi either, she believed that the latter had similar thoughts to hers.

People who look at each other and hate each other have such a tacit understanding!

"Shuqi, what are you doing here?" Old Man Qiao frowned and looked at his daughter with loose hair.

"Dad!" Qiao Shuqi ran forward regardless of it and shouted, "You can help me save William!" ”

As soon as Old Man Qiao heard this, his brows suddenly furrowed closer: "William? What happened to him? He has never liked his foreigner son-in-law, and he has never welcomed him to his house, and now that he heard from his daughter that something happened to this guy, he must not have a good face.

"William, he ......" As soon as Qiao Shuqi saw Old Man Qiao, it was like seeing the Dinghai Divine Needle, and his originally nervous expression relaxed slightly. It was probably because of her mental relaxation that her voice, which was still very sharp, became slightly smoother, mixed with a little crying, "He...... He's going to be caught! ”

"Caught?" When Old Man Qiao heard this, he snorted coldly, "He should have been arrested a long time ago." ”

"Dad!" When Qiao Shuqi heard this, he immediately became anxious.

"Don't call me Dad!" Old Man Qiao slapped the chopsticks in his hand on the table and said angrily, "I have already asked your mother to remind you that he is not a businessman, let you watch him, I won't help you if something happens." But what about you? How? ”

Two more

Old Man Joe didn't like William, that's a fact that many people know.

Most people think it's because he's not happy that his son-in-law is a foreigner. The old man, especially this kind of old-fashioned old man, this kind of old man who was busy working with crooked nuts when he was young, usually has no good impression of this kind of guy, and as a result, his daughter, who was pampered since childhood, married a crooked nut, and it is normal to be dissatisfied.

But that's not the case.

Although Old Man Qiao looks old-fashioned, he is actually square on the outside and round on the inside, and his heart is clearer than anyone else, otherwise he would not have come to this point. Then again, at his point, there is really no need to do anything so-called "marriage". He has never interfered too much in the marriage of his children, if it weren't for this, Su Fanghua would not have been able to enter the door of Qiao's house - the deceased Mrs. Qiao still complained about her husband from time to time until she died, saying that if he stood up and resolutely opposed it at that time, "That ominous woman will never be able to enter the door of my house!" ”。

It can be seen that if William was really a safe person, Old Man Qiao would not object to this.

But it's a pity that Qiao Shuqi's vision of seeing people is as bad as her realm of being a person. If you want to ask her why she loves William, the reason is very simple - "handsome, sweet mouth, good figure, young and golden, and a big life", look, what a real reason! Even Ruan Wan can't say anything bad, after all, people live for a lifetime, and it is not a loss to meet such a man for prostitution - but this is the standard of love, not marriage.

At least in the eyes of Old Man Qiao, the guy named William is definitely not a good man who can be entrusted with his life, he is indeed good-looking, but he only has a clever mouth, and other than that, he is lackluster. So he was extremely opposed back then, but Qiao Shuqi was pampered by Mrs. Qiao, and when he saw his father's opposition, he simply cut first and then played. Note that the "chop" here does not refer to secretly obtaining the license, but to running with the ball!

When she was known as "going to study abroad" and stepped into the house with William with a bulging belly, Old Man Qiao almost didn't beat the two to death together.

But when things come to this point, he can only admit it, what if he doesn't admit it? Is it really necessary to get "one corpse and two lives"?

In this way, Qiao Shuqi successfully won the "freedom" she wanted, but since then, her relationship with Old Man Qiao has also weakened a lot. She knew she had done something wrong and wanted to make amends, but it didn't work. And the child who was used by her as a "magic weapon" back then failed to keep it. But this has nothing to do with Old Man Qiao, it is her own fault. Probably because she hurt her foundation during the miscarriage, she has not had a child until now, so she loves Qiao Yi and Qiao Xinwan even more.

Old Man Qiao knows his daughter and knows that if it were only herself, she would not dare to do such a thing as "bringing the ball to the door" no matter what, so there must be someone behind her to instigate it. Thinking of the final beneficiary, he naturally disliked William who was insidious and cunning inside.

If you want to go the right way, you should try to get the woman's approval.

Only people who love to take crooked paths will make this kind of means that cannot be put on the table, and as soon as this thing comes out, it will ruin Shuqi's reputation.

It can be seen that the so-called "love" in Shuqi's mouth is probably just a joke.

Old Man Qiao has been strong all his life, and he can't stop his daughter, but he won't be deflated like this-

You want to marry my daughter, don't you?

Yes!

Just let you marry!

Marry home, and you will give me a good offering for her as a bodhisattva!

If you dare to let her suffer a little grievance, she will toss half your life.

As for the other benefits......

Heh, didn't you swear to say "I don't want anything but Shuqi"? Then obediently promise, don't even think of anything from my hands. If you regret it, you will have your good fruit to eat!

……

So, under the strength and protection of Old Man Qiao, William was begging for his own hardships and invited an aunt to go home, and as for Qiao Shuqi, he was really comfortable. There is no way, although William is a foreigner, most of his career is related to Huaguo, and he really doesn't dare to offend the well-connected old man Qiao.

However, even if he didn't deliberately reach out to help William, the latter would still be his son-in-law.

After so many years, William's courage, who was honest at the beginning, has gradually become fattened, and the thing of "pulling tiger skin to make a big banner" has gone from occasional to often, until now, it can be regarded as a big disaster. After finding that he really had no power to go back, his first choice was not to pack up his package and run away, but to ask his wife for help without hesitation - he was really reluctant to give up the career he had so hard to create.

And when things got to this point, he really didn't believe that Old Man Qiao would let go of his daughter's hard work. Moreover, as a last resort, he is not without a backhand.

Qiao Shuqi has always only been concerned about spending money, and he doesn't know anything about business, as soon as he heard that his husband owed a huge debt and could go to prison at any time, the whole person was not good, and his first reaction was to "go home and ask for help".

So, here she came.

Qiao Shuqi was really panicked, she usually loved face the most, and she actually cried in front of "outsiders" like Ruan Wan and Shen Ziyu, ignoring her own image. However, she never thought that Old Man Qiao's heart was so hard, and under her crying, he was not only unmoved, but also scolded her loudly.

Qiao Shuqi was dumbfounded.

"Dad! I know you don't like William, but you're really going to help him this time! Otherwise he's finished! ”

Listening to his daughter's eager voice, Old Man Qiao snorted: "It's over, you can just dump him." ”

"Dad!" Qiao Shuqi became even more anxious when he heard this, and actually knelt directly in front of Old Man Qiao, hugged his leg and pleaded, "Dad, can I beg you?" I'm begging you! Just help him! I...... I can't live without him! ”

Ruan Wan, who sat awkwardly and remained silent like everyone else, heard this, and thought to herself, although Qiao Shuqi was very annoying, she also really loved William. This was true in the previous life, and it is the same in this life.

But strangely, in her previous life, she remembered that this did not happen at this time.

A year later, William's stealing of the third child outside was discovered by Qiao Shuqi, and it was really a big deal at that time. At that time, she originally thought that Qiao Shuqi would toss William to death, but she didn't think about it, and she finally chose to back down, only letting William drive Xiao San away, and then ...... He brought home the child born to him and the junior and raised it himself.

When she heard this, she only felt that her three views were shattered and she was speechless. …… Well, she didn't have any three views at all.

Then she understood one thing - the best are piled up.

But what is the matter now......

It stands to reason that she didn't know about such a big fuss.

Sure enough, the changes are really getting bigger.

Old Man Qiao frowned and said, "You are so desperate? Don't want anything for him? ”

Qiao Shuqi was slightly moved when he heard this. Although Old Man Qiao doesn't seem to be abnormal on the surface, as a daughter, how can she not know that she broke her father's heart again.

But......

She really couldn't do it and left William alone.

He was so good to her, never cared about her bad temper and unreasonableness, and did his best to give her what she wanted.

Moreover, she was really ashamed of him.

The child back then, if she hadn't insisted on wearing high heels when she was pregnant, she wouldn't have had a miscarriage at all. That accident also hurt her fundamentally, and she has not been able to have a child until today, and she wants to use other methods, but she has never succeeded. He also always comforted her and said, "No, no, it's a big deal, we will adopt in the future", which made her happy and guilty.

She felt that there could be no better person in the world than William would have done to her.

So she couldn't see death without help, so she ......

Even if she knew that her current persecution of her father was really unfilial, she was really ......

"Dad, I beg you, I really beg you." Qiao Shuqi, who was moved by true feelings, tears rolled down her cheeks, and she choked up and said, "Help him, he was really deceived this time, really!" ”

Old Man Qiao looked at his crying daughter, closed his eyes, and his heart gradually softened. In the end, it is a child who has been hurting since childhood, although she has always been squeezed with words over the years, and she has been blamed for being too willful, but how can the nature of father and daughter be cut. He thought to himself, let's check first, in case it really wasn't William's responsibility this time, he really fell into someone else's pit.

Even if the result is diametrically opposite to what Shuqi said, when the evidence is presented, it will be better for her to stop being so dead-eyed.

Thinking of this, Old Man Qiao said, "I'll let your brother check it first." After a pause, he added, "But, if it's really his responsibility, don't expect me to save him." ”

Qiao Shuqi didn't know that this was the old man's soft heart, and he nodded busily and said, "Okay!" Listen to you! ”

"Mother Wu, help her up."

"Okay."

Su Fanghua also stood up and said softly, "Shuqi, I'll accompany you to wash your face." ”

Qiao Shuqi almost raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and then she remembered that she had actually lost face in front of her old enemy, but now is the time to ask for someone, if she offends Su Fanghua, what if the latter blows the wind on her brother in anger? Although my brother has loved her since she was a child, and now she is good to her, but my sister and my wife are not the same thing after all, the former has been separated for a long time and the latter gets along day and night, and it is normal for her heart to gradually deviate.

Thinking of this, Qiao Shuqi secretly gritted his teeth, tried to forget the shame of jì at the moment, suppressed the efforts in his heart, and replied with a good attitude: "Thank you." ”

Su Fanghua was directly shocked, this is really groundbreaking!

This person was startled, and his movements inevitably slowed down, which made Qiao Shuqi secretly hate - she felt that Su Fanghua was deliberately laughing at her.

So the sister-in-law and sister-in-law seem to have eased their attitude towards each other on the surface, but in fact, the relationship is even worse.

Seeing the two of them leave, this lunch is really inedible.

After Old Man Qiao left, the remaining three "children" on the table breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, the atmosphere just now was really depressing. Qiao's wish is okay, Ruan Wan and Shen Ziyu, who are outsiders, are really embarrassed.

But it's come to this, there's no way to be embarrassed, and even if it's embarrassing, she can't help with this kind of thing.

She was right, but ......
