Chapter 1994: She Could Only Fork It Out

Chapter 1994: She Could Only Fork It Out


The daughter whom she always thought was successful wasn’t that successful. Based on this incident, the daughter whom she always thought was filial wasn’t that filial.


However, she and Old Qiao were old. They couldn’t work and earn money to support themselves. If both daughters were unfilial, how would she and Old Qiao lead their lives in the future?


After thinking about it, Ding Jiayi felt that the only solution was to make sure there was more money by her side. That would make her feel more at ease. As such, once she knew that Qiao Nan had forked out fifty thousand yuan, Ding Jiayi asked Qiao Zijin for the same amount as well.


“Mom, are you kidding me?” Qiao Zijin nearly jumped. “My dad’s suffering a fracture. It’s not that serious. It’s just a minor operation today and it won’t cost much. There’s definitely an excess from the fifty thousand yuan Qiao Nan forked out. You can just use the remaining money to buy some nutritional products for dad.”


A fall and a fracture cost one hundred thousand yuan. Was her dad made of precious gold? She only spent over four hundred thousand yuan for her kidney transplant.


“Mom, don’t feel that I still have a lot of money in my hands because of that one million yuan. I’m just forty-two years old. My life’s only halfway down the road. I still have plenty of places to spend money on in the future. Mom, you’ve changed so much that I feel I don’t recognize you anymore. You’re not like this in the past. You used to be very considerate of me.”


Before her dad was hospitalized, her mom was still thinking of how to ruin the Zhai family’s good impression of Qiao Nan so that she could get closer to them and obtain benefits.


It was just a short two hours. The way her mom asked her for money was exactly the same as when she asked Qiao Nan for money.


Ding Jiayi pursed her lips together and said in a low voice, “There’s no choice. Your dad and I are old. Aside from the house I bought for you, all the money I got from Qiao Nan was handed over to the hospital when you contracted uremia. I don’t have any money by my side. Your dad’s ill today. It might be me the next time. A person can have anything but illness and can lack anything but money. Didn’t you say that you will split the cost evenly with Qiao Nan? Since she forked out fifty thousand yuan, you can do the same. You’re not on the losing end.”


So what if one hundred thousand yuan wouldn’t be spent? She could save the excess. If anything happened to her or Old Qiao next time, at least there was a little money at home for them to go to the hospital and get treated.


After having such an experience once, Ding Jiayi couldn’t help but worry if the person being admitted next time was her, would Qiao Zijin be the same as today? Would she have money in her hands but refuse to hand it in and insist on Qiao Nan doing so instead?


Ding Jiayi knew that as long as she was alive, even if she had to first fork out the money when she was hospitalized, she would still be able to get the money Qiao Nan should fork out from Qiao Nan after being discharged from the hospital. Thus far, out of a hundred times that she asked Qiao Nan for money, Qiao Nan didn’t reject her for ninety-nine times.


The only exception was when Zijin was hospitalized and had to undergo a kidney transplant.


However, when Old Qiao was hospitalized today, not only did Qiao Nan appear, but she even handed over fifty thousand yuan without another word. As such, if she was really ill and had to be hospitalized, Qiao Nan, that wretched girl, would most likely be willing to hand over money so that she could receive treatment.


“You yourself said to split the cost evenly. Since Qiao Nan forked out fifty thousand yuan, tell me, shouldn’t you do the same?” Ding Jiayi didn’t say anything else. She was only eyeing that fifty thousand yuan.


Qiao Zijin really didn’t want to hand over the money. “Mom, if you’re really worried you won’t have enough to spend, you can get more from Qiao Nan again. Isn’t Qiao Nan going to be related to the Zhai family soon? She definitely wouldn’t be lacking money. Unless she doesn’t want to be together with Zhai Sheng, if you as a mother ask Qiao Nan for money, she wouldn’t dare to refuse. If she really refuses to do so, you can ask for money from the Zhai family.”


There were so many people her mom could ask for money from. Why did she only eye her?


Ding Jiayi shook her head. “Qiao Nan is Qiao Nan. You are you.” Ding Jiayi didn’t feel that she could control Qiao Nan just by complaining to the Zhai family. Didn’t they see that Zhai Sheng accompanied Qiao Nan to the hospital today? She was afraid that the Zhai family already knew that Zijin had money in her hands but refused to pay for Old Qiao’s treatment.


Even if she made a fool of herself, it couldn’t be compared to Zijin’s practice today. If they really wanted to discredit Qiao Nan in front of the Zhai family, it had to be something that Qiao Nan really did. Otherwise, based on Zijin’s and her actions, would Qiao Nan’s image be worse than the two of them?


Toward the end, Ding Jiayi felt irritated as well. “So, you’re not going to fork out this fifty thousand yuan?” She had two daughters. She should rightfully be enjoying the care from both daughters.


Ding Jiayi, who was extremely afraid after seeing Qiao Dongliang being hospitalized, wasn’t asking for a lot of money. It was just fifty thousand yuan. If she really fell sick, this fifty thousand yuan would definitely not be enough. If Zijin wasn’t even willing to fork out fifty thousand yuan, who knew how it would be like if she had to spend more than fifty thousand yuan in the future?


“Zijin, until today, out of the two children, you’re the one I can answer to the most. You didn’t earn that remaining 1.6 million yuan from the sale of the house. If not for Qiao Nan knowing how to earn money and me taking all her salary to buy the house, you would neither have the money nor the house. You’re not even willing to take out fifty thousand yuan now. Zijin, if I run into an accident in the future like your dad today, do you think I can count on you?”


At this moment, Ding Jiayi couldn’t help but be alert.


Based on Zijin’s current situation, to let her enjoy life? Zijin herself couldn’t enjoy life soon. It’s fine if she wasn’t able to enjoy life. However, if she was sick, would Zijin be unwilling to fork out money for her treatment and just watch her die?!


The more Qiao Zijin was unwilling to fork out the money, the more Ding Jiayi was unwilling to let it go. After all, this sum of money concerned if Ding Jiayi could still receive treatment and continue to live in the event she was ill. To Ding Jiayi, who cherished life, being alive was naturally more important than anything else. She had raised her elder daughter into a university student. Wasn’t she counting on her to let her lead a good life when she was old?


Qiao Zijin felt both panicked and guilty. “Mom, what are you talking about? I’m divorced from Chen Jun and Feng Feng isn’t by my side. I only have you and Dad now. How can I not care about you both? Isn’t it just fifty thousand yuan? I can transfer it to you now.” She would definitely suffer if she fell out with her mom.


If Qiao Nan were to really marry Zhai Sheng, what kind of life she would be able to lead in the future would depend on how well her mom could control Qiao Nan.


Compared to falling out with Ding Jiayi, fifty thousand yuan was really nothing. However, Qiao Zijin was someone who refused to give up until she reached her goal. Unless it was a last resort, Qiao Zijin would delay the possibility of forking out any sum of money.


This time, Ding Jiayi’s looks changed and her tone was completely different. Qiao Zijin hurriedly took out her mobile to do the transfer. Upon hearing the short message prompt from the bank system, Ding Jiayi took out her mobile. Indeed, fifty thousand yuan had been transferred over.
