Chapter 2046: Coming Down

Qiao Nan herself was also responsible for her experience at the Qiao family all these years. She shouldn’t have had any expectations of the Qiao family and felt that her concessions could be exchanged for peace and kinship. Qiao Nan herself was problematic. How could she blame her neighbors for looking on and doing nothing?

However, since their relationship as neighbors was already so cold and indifferent, Qiao Nan would naturally not let these familiar strangers appear at her wedding, which was a happy occasion. After all, they had so many chances to help her in the past but chose to stand by the side, pretending to be mute. They even hurt her by using her situation to educate their children.

Now that they were arguing today, the neighbor naturally removed the last layer of cloth that was covering the Qiao family’s face.

Because of Qiao Zijin taking the civil servant entrance examinations, Ding Jiayi had been using Zhai Sheng’s and Qiao Nan’s face. Ding Jiayi was completely in self-denial. She treated her relationship with Qiao Nan as the same as those of other mother-daughter pairs.

For Qiao Nan, the Qiao family couldn’t be even considered family. As for Ding Jiayi, to Qiao Nan, she was a fake mom. Ding Jiayi was the one who had given herself the title of Zhai Sheng’s mother-in-law.

Everyone, including Qiao Nan, didn’t acknowledge Ding Jiayi, yet Ding Jiayi dared to use the Zhai family’s reputation to engage in such activities. The neighbor expressed that Ding Jiayi was extremely thick-skinned. Everyone in the entire quad combined together couldn’t compare to Ding Jiayi.

“You...” Ding Jiayi was furious. Indeed, she didn’t recognize Qiao Nan. Until today, she still believed that Qiao Zijin was the one who would be promising. So what if Qiao Nan married Zhai Sheng? She might be made to leave after a few days. As such, she had to treat Qiao Zijin well as she was going to depend on her to provide for her in the future.

She despised Qiao Nan, yet she was relying on Qiao Nan for everything now. It was impossible that Ding Jiayi wasn’t feeling awkward and uncomfortable in her heart. It was just that Ding Jiayi rarely contacted her neighbors. Generally, no one would make a din with Ding Jiayi and chat with her about the relationship between Qiao Nan and the Qiao family.

As such, at the same time that Ding Jiayi despised Qiao Nan, she also used her relationship with Qiao Nan to try to get more benefits for Qiao Zijin.

At this moment, this layer of cloth was removed and Ding Jiayi almost wanted to get into a fight with the neighbor. “I’m not going to bicker with you. I’m the chief’s mother-in-law. My identity is different. Arguing with you would just lower my value. Alright, I’ll see how long you’ll be happy for. I want to see whether it’s your daughter or mine that becomes a civil servant in the end.”

Ding Jiayi was already blaming herself for finding this person. How stupid was she? She had already said it so clearly. How was it that she would misunderstand her and pull Zijin down and let her daughter replace her? She said for both of them to take the examinations.

That was good as well. It was better to know earlier that her neighbor was an ungrateful person who turned her back against her once she obtained benefits rather than later, when her neighbor’s daughter and Zijin both became civil servants and her neighbor started to kick up a fuss to make her return the one hundred thousand yuan.

It was just an interview position now. It was still easy for her to pull the other party down and get Zijin up. If she waited until the neighbor’s daughter really became a civil servant before pulling her down, it would definitely be more troublesome. Earlier was naturally better than later.

When her neighbor’s daughter failed to become a civil servant, even if it was two hundred thousand or three hundred thousand yuan, she would definitely not accept it, let alone one hundred thousand yuan. Even if her old neighbor knelt down and begged her with tears, she would never agree. Otherwise, she would no longer be called Ding Jiayi!

With capability, there was confidence. She successfully let her daughter pass the examinations when she had handed in a blank paper. With a few words, she also secured an interview spot for her neighbor’s daughter. Ding Jiayi was full of confidence now. She didn’t feel that it was a pity to return the one hundred thousand yuan now. At most, it hurt just a bit.

She had already done all the work and the neighbor’s daughter secured an interview spot. However, the neighbor wanted the money back now. That was unkind.

Thankfully, this was just an interview spot, not the qualifications to pass the interview. Did she think that if she was eligible for an interview, it would definitely be smooth-sailing for her to be a civil servant? At that time, she would use reality to teach her neighbor a lesson that until the last moment, everything was subjected to changes.

Her old neighbor took back the one hundred thousand yuan today. In the name of the chief’s mother-in-law, she promised that in this lifetime, she would never let the neighbor’s daughter become a civil servant. She had said these words and would do the same in the future.

She had slapped her in the face and exposed her shortcomings today. It could be said these two families were now enemies. She would wait and see. Aside from this civil servant examination, would the old neighbor really not beg their Qiao family for anything in the future?!

The stubborn Ding Jiayi endured the pain and threw the one hundred thousand yuan, which was not yet warm in her hands, to the old neighbor.

Upon receiving the thick stack of money, the old neighbor felt assured. She no longer had to hold back the words she wanted to say. If she continued to hold them back, she would be suffocated to death. “You old woman. You’re addicted to ostentation and really think you’re valuable, huh? Since I already have the money back, I’m not afraid to tell you the truth. Although you have made shortcuts this time, it would be impossible for Qiao Zijin to stand a chance at participating in the interview. The superiors from above called and said that the open recruitment this time would be fair and just. Everything would be done using capabilities.”

“Why else do you think that although Qiao Zijin was on the interview list, she eventually couldn’t go for it? It’s all because of your good daughter and son-in-law. Indeed, he’s the chief. He is fair and wouldn’t bully us, normal citizens, just because he’s now an official. If Qiao Zijin didn’t have such a big head, she wouldn’t wear such a big hat. Did she think that she could be lawless just because she has Zhai Sheng as a brother-in-law? In your dreams! If Qiao Zijin could make it as a civil servant, Zhai Sheng would definitely be the first person to perform checks. Everyone in the quad knows how capable Qiao Zijin is. Qiao Nan would know it even better.”

Qiao Zijin wanted to rely on her capabilities to become a civil servant? In her dreams!

If Qiao Zijin wasn’t capable, everything was in vain. Not only would Qiao Zijin not be able to get special care and treatment in some aspects as she was Zhai Sheng’s sister-in-law, but because of this relationship, she would be subjected to even stricter requirements and checks.
