“Let’s settle this first. Jierou, don’t cry. I’ll go upstairs to look for your grandfather. You’ve caused such a big incident, so he and Dongliang will have to bear some responsibility.”
Qiao Jierou immediately followed Old Madam Qiao upstairs.
Old Master Qiao had also returned from the sanatorium after hearing about the matter today. He was thinking of ways to resolve the issue.
There were too many people below, and it was too noisy. He could only stay in the study room to avoid them for the time being.
Qiao Dongliang had been by his side the whole time.
At this moment, Qiao Weiyang was sitting beside him, which finally made him smile.
Hearing the urgent knock on the door, Qiao Dongliang glanced at Old Master Qiao, who nodded. Then, he opened the door.
“Dongliang, you’re here too? Perfect,” Old Madam Qiao said. Then, she saw a young lady sitting calmly at the side drinking tea. “Qiao Weiyang? You have the cheek to come?”
“I didn’t steal or snatch anything. I came back to see my grandfather and brother. Why wouldn’t I dare to come?” Qiao Weiyang said calmly and put down the teacup. “Or is it because the party being investigated by the police but is still protected by others is embarrassed?”
These words hit Qiao Jierou’s sore spot.
She took advantage of the fact that Hu Haitian had yet to wake up and rushed back to the country. There were many things that she could not escape from.
Old Madam Qiao didn’t want to argue with her. Instead, she said, “Old man, Jierou is in some trouble now. You and Dongliang should contribute some money to help her resolve it.”
She said it very matter-of-factly.
Old Master Qiao frowned deeply and sighed. “Originally, the Qiao family should indeed share the responsibility for Jierou’s accident. However, some time ago, you guys were arguing about dividing the assets, so I’ve done just that.This matter was notarized and published in the newspaper. Now that Jierou is in trouble, she should bear the responsibility herself. Otherwise, this matter will not be in accordance with the family rules or the company rules. If word gets out, will our Qiao family still be able to do business?”
Old Madam Qiao choked back her words and felt very nauseous.
Qiao Jierou said aggrievedly, “Grandpa, please help me this time.”
“You’re my granddaughter, so it’s only right for me to help you. How about this? You guys calculate how much we need to compensate first. Bring the accounts for me to review. If you, your grandma, and your parents can’t come up with enough money, I’ll help you fork out the remainder,” Old Master Qiao said generously.
Qiao Jierou choked. Actually, even though she, Old Madam Qiao, and her mother were short of money, it was not insufficient. It was just that such a huge loss had a huge impact on them.
They could only watch helplessly as they used more than half of their savings and assets as compensation. One could imagine how heartbreaking it was. That was why they wanted to share some of the financial burden with Old Master Qiao and Qiao Dongliang.
But if Old Master Qiao said that, how could she come asking for him for money?
Qiao Weiyang poured another cup of tea for Old Master Qiao and said, “That’s right. Jierou, it’s only right for you to bear the responsibility for your mistakes. It’s your parents’ responsibility to help you bear the responsibility as well. You also have your grandmother to help you. That’s her generosity. Grandpa is willing to bear the rest for you because he dotes on you. As for Dongliang, he’s not even 18 years old yet. This money will only be his in the future. He can’t touch it. Otherwise, what will happen to Dongliang in the future?”
Old Madam Qiao doted on her grandson so much that she immediately said, “We definitely can’t touch Dongliang’s money. But old man, you can’t just pay the remainder when Jierou can’t afford it anymore. At least let her have something to rely on!”
“I’ve said it before. I’ll take responsibility for what she can’t afford. How can I give her any more? If I give extra money to Jierou, what about Dongliang and Weiyang? If I want to give more money to one person, I have to split it evenly between the three of them!”
Old Master Qiao was furious.
Huang Shumin and Qiao Jierou clenched their fists. They wanted Old Master Qiao’s things, but they didn’t want Qiao Weiyang to have them either.
The current situation was in a deadlock.
Old Master Qiao said, “If you can afford it, why come to me? Have some backbone! If you can’t afford it, I’ll bear as much as I can for you! That’s all. Don’t say anything else!”
Old Madam Qiao was about to say something when Qiao Weiyang stopped her. “Old Madam, Grandpa isn’t in good health. If you still anger him, the consequences will be unbearable.”
When Old Madam Qiao thought of this, she had no choice but to leave.
This path of retreat was blocked. When the three of them went downstairs, their expressions were ugly.
Old Master Qiao was furious.
“Dongliang, go to my bag and get the medicine for Grandpa.” Qiao Weiyang patted Old Master Qiao’s back. “Grandpa, don’t worry. They should be able to bear these losses.”
She took the medicine and placed one in Old Master Qiao’s mouth for him to swallow.
Old Master Qiao finally caught his breath and sighed. “How could I have raised such evil?! Weiyang, it’s been hard on you all these years.”
“Grandpa, don’t worry about me. Take care of yourself.”
“Dongliang, did you see that? You can’t learn these things, understand?”
Qiao Dongliang walked to his side and said in a low voice, “I’ve never learned from them. I’ve always wanted to learn from Sister Weiyang.”
“Grandpa, keep this medicine.” Qiao Weiyang put the bottle of medicine in his hand. “It’s good for your heart. Don’t worry about them for the time being. The most important thing is to take good care of your body.”
With that, she looked at Qiao Dongliang. “Don’t come back so often in the future. You should finish your exams first.”
Qiao Weiyang’s tone was a little harsh, but Qiao Dongliang was very obedient. He said honestly, “Sister, it’s good that you’re still willing to scold me. I was really afraid that you’d ignore me in the future because of Second Sister.”
“Why would I ignore you? You’re not like them. Don’t think too much about it.”
Every time Old Master Qiao encountered Qiao Jierou, he would have a headache. When he saw how Qiao Weiyang and Qiao Dongliang interacted, he finally revealed a gratified smile.
Why was there such a huge difference between children from the same family?
Qiao Weiyang got someone to send Qiao Dongliang to school and pushed Old Master Qiao’s wheelchair to the parking lot.
“Where are you taking Grandpa?” Qiao Jierou saw Qiao Weiyang’s actions and questioned loudly.
“Can’t I bring him back to the sanatorium?” Qiao Weiyang asked.
Which of them would care about Old Master Qiao’s health? When had they ever paid attention to Old Master Qiao and visited him unless they needed him?
Qiao Weiyang held back her words, afraid that Old Master Qiao would be sad.
However, how could Old Master Qiao not know about these things?
He had long seen through them, but he still treated everyone fairly. However, these people continued to hurt him in various ways.
