Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 1561-1570

Chapter 1561: Shameless

“But I have one question. It costs money to have a good education.” Money. Did she even have it? Did she have enough?

If raising a child well was just a matter of talk, would she have forced Qiao Nan to work part-time while she was still in junior high school just so that she could pay for her elder daughter’s school fees? It was exactly because studying was too expensive and having two children studying was too heavy of a burden that she had made such a decision, offending that foolish girl Qiao Nan.

Without what happened then, her relationship with Qiao Nan would not have deteriorated to such a bad state, so much so that Qiao Nan no longer recognized her as her mother.

“…” In the face of such a realistic problem, Qiao Zijin gritted her teeth. “I don’t, but Qiao Nan does! Mom, you also know that Qiao Nan struck a fortune! A huge one! The money that Qiao Nan has in her hands is more than we’ll ever have in a few lifetimes! No matter what, Qiao Nan is still Ying Ying’s aunt. Even if Qiao Nan were to raise ten Ying Ying, she would still have loads of money leftover!”

After learning that Qiao Nan had such a huge fortune, Qiao Zijin had been so angry that she had been unable to sleep for three nights. Was it not enough that she was the Minister of Foreign Affairs? Now, she was even filthy rich! Even Chen Jun said that he could not tell how much Qiao Nan had on hand now. Qiao Nan could very well be one of the richest invisible tycoons in the whole of China!

“Mom, do you not know? Ten million yuan, ten million yuan! She just donated it out! And do you know who Qiao Nan donated it to? She started a foundation specially to support lonely old people to let them live out the rest of their lives comfortably. How about me? We’re her relatives, but we’re living such hard lives. If she was really so kind, why didn’t she come and help her relatives first? Mom, don’t tell me you’re still happy that she rented you a house in the capital. I’m telling you that Qiao Nan has many houses in her possession. And those are big houses. These houses are all hers, but she didn’t even tell you about it, much less let you into her houses. She’s so heartless! Are you still thinking about her?”

The more she said, the angrier Qiao Zijin got. After a while, Qiao Zijin started shouting.

She wanted to get remarried too, and she knew that it would be inconvenient to have her daughter with her. But she had no other choice. She had to keep Zhou Ying by her side. Zhou Zheng wanted her to get divorced without receiving any alimony or marital assets, but Qiao Zijin refused to do so. Knowing that the Zhou family did not favor boys over girls, Qiao Zijin knew that they loved their granddaughter, Zhou Ying, greatly.

Thus, Qiao Zijin made use of Zhou Ying and asked for a huge sum of alimony. Only then was she willing to get a divorce. Otherwise, since Zhou Ying was her daughter, she would bring Zhou Ying away with her.

She had not expected that she would lose this game. Initially, the two Zhou elders were reluctant to give up their granddaughter. Even if Qiao Zijin had been at fault, they were still willing to give Qiao Zijin a sum of money. But the amount of money that the Zhou family was willing to part with was far from what Qiao Zijin demanded. Seeing how Qiao Zijin’s attitude was worsening, Zhou Zheng was furious. Since Qiao Zijin was Zhou Ying’s mother, Zhou Zheng pushed Zhou Ying over to Qiao Zijin’s side without hesitation. “You hardly spent any time at home in the past, so you were never able to spend much time with your daughter. It’s rare that you’re willing to have your daughter by your side. It’s just as well. Make it up to your daughter and let her feel how it’s like to always have her mother by her side!”

Had Qiao Zijin really thought that she held the upper hand over the Zhou family because of her daughter and could get away with anything? Where did she get such a naive idea?
