Adored Koi in the ’70s

Chapter 98

Qiao Zhen Min was delivering goods when he was notified about his wife being sent to the hospital.

His face turned pale with fright. He quickly asked what happened.

Unfortunately, the one who came to inform him was a ten-year-old child. He didn't know what happened. The adults told him to come.

After making sure little Wan-er was at the neighbor's house, he hurried to the hospital. Only then, he found out things were more serious than he thought.

Shi Qin Xin had a miscarriage and their two-month-old baby was gone.

Indescribable sadness emerged in Qiao Zhen Min's heart.

He was assaulted at that man part by a gangster before and thought that he would never have any more children in his life. Later, after his divorce with Chen Qiao Qiao, he didn't plan to marry again.

Don't know what happened. His body got better day by day. That male area had a normal reaction in the morning. This was why he will later agree to his director's matchmaking. If he wasn't good there, he will definitely not marry again.

Last month, Shi Qin Xin was diagnosed with a month or so pregnancy. His eyes were almost red with joy.

After having that kind of disease, one can't talk to people or treat it. As a man, it was natural to feel inferior. The arrival of this baby had washed away all his inferiority and shame.

So he was looking forward to the arrival of this baby. Unexpectedly,...

He stood outside the ward for a long time before he was mental prepared and ready to pushed the door in.

When Shi Qin Xin saw him, her just-stabilized emotion became agitated again. She stared at him with tears in her eyes: "Zhen Min..."

Mother Shi turned her around and exclaimed, "You're finally here. I have comforted her for a few hours. She has been crying and crying. It's better to leave her to you."

Qiao Zhen Min hurriedly thanked his mother-in-law.

When she reached the door, Mother Shi suddenly stopped. She turned to Qiao Zhen Min and spoke, "Come out. Mom has something to tell you."

As soon as these words came out, Qiao Zhen Min had yet to react when he heard Shi Qin Xin anxiously cry out: "Mom, you..."

Mother Shi turned to her daughter and assured, "Don't worry, Mom has a sense of limit."

Qiao Zhen Min sensed the pair's strange attitude. A bad feeling surged in his heart. He nodded, "Okay."

Then he walked out of the ward with Mother Shi.

Shi Qin Xin watched their back as her hands tightly grasped the sheet. So nervous that the veins on the back of her hands were showing.

Mother Shi walked to the small garden outside before stopping and sitting down on the stone stool. She spoke "You sit down too. Don't stand or I will feel uncomfortable staring up at you as we talk."

Qiao Zhen Min sat down a seat width away from her.

Mother Shi said, "You two aren't young. Logically, you should have a child. I was extremely happy when you guys were pregnant after half a year of marriage. Never thought...oh."

Qiao Zhen Min responded, "It's my fault. I didn't take good care of Qin Xin!"

Mother Shi was very satisfied with his attitude: "This can't blame you. You are busy with work. How can you stay at home to take care of Qin Xin. Even if you want to suspend work and stay at home, I wouldn't agree. I just feel sorry for my poor daughter. You know that she had a miscarriage before, right?"

Qiao Zhen Min nodded: "I know."

"Miscarriage hurt the body too much. One time, two times. If it become habitual, it will be troublesome!" Mother Shi led the conversation to this and observed him. Her tone suddenly took a turn, "If Qin Xin's miscarriage this time is accidental, it would be alright. But"

Qiao Zhen Min raised his brows: "Mom, what do you mean by that? Isn't Qin Xin's miscarriage an accident?"

Mother Shi's eyes flickered: "Little Wan-er didn't do it on purpose. It's normal for a child to be unruly at this age. Don't scold the child when you go back. Still Zhen Min, don't blame Mom for intervening too much. If you and Qin Xin wants to have a baby, the best way is to send little Wan-er to your parents. Bring her back after little Wan-er's younger brother is born."

Qiao Zhen Min's face instantly sank. He pursed his lips and said nothing.

Seeing that he didn't object, Mother Shi pushed for a foot after getting an inch, "Actually, it's not very stable to have one. It's better to wait until after you have given birth to a second baby before bring the child over. At that time, little Wan-er is more grown up. Perfect to have her come and help take care of younger brothers. What do you think?"

A burst of anger rose in Qiao Zhen Min's heart, almost burning out all his sanity!

Though his anger reached its max, he laughed: "My family's little Wan-er is neither a maid nor a nanny. Even if Qin Xin and I have children in the future, she doesn't need to help take care of her younger siblings."

When Mother Shi heard what he said, she immediately became displeased: "What's with your attitude? What's wrong with what I said just now? Which eldest doesn't need to help with the chores at home?"

Qiao Zhen Min stood up and declared, "My family's little Wan-er don't need to!"

After he finished speaking, he ignored Mother Shi, turned and walked towards the ward.

Mother Shi Mu's chest heaved with fury. Recalling Qiao Zhen Min's expression just now, she felt uneasy. She quickly picked up the things and chased after him.

Qiao Zhen Min rushed into the ward. Staring at Shi Qin Xin and spoke, "Is your miscarriage caused by little Wan-er?"

Seeing him pull a long face, Shi Qin Xin's heart thumped: "Little Wan-er didn't do it on purpose. She...she accidentally bumped me and I fell down because I didn't stand stable. Zhen Min, did my mom tell you something?"

Qiao Zhen Min sneered: "Don't you have any idea what your mom said to me? She asked me to send little Wan-er back to my hometown. And after we give birth to the second baby, little Wan-er would be brought back to help take care of younger siblings!"

Shi Qin Xin swallowed a mouthful of saliva. She couldn't help trembling under the sheet: "My mom is worried about me. You know me... I have had a miscarriage before. She is worried that I may not be able have another child if it happen again... "

Qiao Zhen Min stared at her coldly: "So you agree with Mother-in-law. You want me to send little Wan-er back, right?"

Shi Qin Xin looked at his frosted face. She wanted to shake her head, but her mouth answered first: "Send her back for a few years. At most we will go back often to see her later... Zhen Min, I don't despise that child. I just"

"You don't need to say it anymore!" Qiao Zhen Min coldly interrupted her, "Before the wedding, I told you. My reason for marriage was to find someone to take care of little Wan-er. You said you don't mind. How long have it been since we married before you regret it!?"

Shi Qin Xin's eyes were red: "I don't regret... I..."

"What are you doing?" Mother Shi rushed over like an old hen protecting her chicks and smacked Qiao Zhen Min with the bag in her hand, "Qin Xin just had a miscarriage. It's enough that don't feel distressed for her. You even yell at her. Is there a husband like you? If I knew you were like this, I shouldn't have handed my daughter over to you in the first place!"

Qiao Zhen Min let her hit without retaliation.

On the contrary, Shi Qin Xin, who was leaning on the hospital bed, couldn't stand it. She cried out: "Mom, don't hit him anymore. Mom!"

The nurse outside heard the commotion and ran over. With a black face, she warned them to stop arguing or they would all be thrown out!

Only then did Mother Shi stop and panted, "You wolf-hearted thing, my family's Qin Xin was hurt like this by your daughter. She was worried that you would blame the child and didn't want me say it. If you only have your daughter in your heart, why did you marry a wife in the first place?"

Qiao Zhen Min glanced at her before looking at pale Shi Qin Xin and spoke, "Maybe I was wrong in the first place. Let's calm down these days. I'll give the money to get an auntie from next door to come and help take care of you."

After saying that, he turned and left.

"Zhen Min!" Seeing his resolute departing back, Shi Qin Xin's heart suddenly panicked.

She wanted to get out of bed and chase after him but was pulled back by her mom.

"Why are you chasing? Dog man. The more you care about him, the more he rubs his nose in your face. At this time, it is best to be cold to him. Are you still worried that he will divorce you?"

Mother Shi poked her head and scolded.

Mother Shi wasn't worried that Qiao Zhen Min would divorce her daughter. Divorce was a last resort in this era. No matter who was right or wrong, it would be bad for the reputation of both parties.

Qiao Zhen Min had already been divorced once. Qiao Family already had three children divorced. So for the sake of reputation, he will never divorce again!

Shi Qin Xin bit her lip: "Mom, I told you not to say it at this time. You don't know how much Zhen Min love little Wan-er. He can't stand to hear anyone say anything bad about her!"

Mother Shi sat down and spoke, "That's why you have to take this opportunity to send the child away! Otherwise, what position will you and my grandson havee in this family in the future?"

Shi Qin Xin bit her lip. Her eyes drooped. Finally, she stopped refuting.

In fact, she didn't hate little Wan-er.

Although the child was a bit introverted, she was well-behaved. This made adults feel at ease. So before marrying, she really wanted to treat the child as her own daughter.

But after getting married and witnessing Qiao Zhen Min's love for the child, her mentality changed. Especially after hearing him say that he would buy a house for the child in the county, just like Qiao Family did for Da Qiao.

A house in the county cost seventeen to eighteen hundred yuan for a two-bedroom house. If it was better, it was absolutely impossible to buy it without twenty-five hundred yuan.

His current salary was thirty-five yuan. Although this was pretty good, it will take several years to save up to buy a house. The key was his attitude. Currently little Wan-er was still small and he want to buy a house for her. Then when she get married, won't he want to empty the house?

What about her and their children?

That was why her mom suggest her to take this opportunity to send little Wan-er to the countryside. With distance between them, the feeling would gradually fade away. She can take the opportunity to use her child to win over his heart.

Her mom wanted her to have at least two babies. It would take three or four years for the two babies to be born. If it is slow, it may take five or six years. In this way, when little Wan-er comes back, their father-daughter relationship has already fade. Then there would be no worry.

She admitted that she was moved by her mom's words. She didn't want to isolate little Wan-er but Qiao Zhen Min cared about her too much. If she stayed in the county, she and their future children would really have no place at all.

After being persuaded by her mom, Shi Qin Xin's heart was firmed up again. She decided to give Qiao Zhen Min the cold treatment and make him send little Wan-er away!

...

Qiao Zhen Min sat outside for a long time. It had gotten dark when he remembered little Wan-er was still in the neighbor's house. He hurriedly stood up and went home.

Once he came to the neighbor's house, he was told that little Wan-er had gone back long ago; she explained that little Wan-er had been clamoring to go back, so she could only take her back.

Qiao Zhen Min was so worried in his heart that he turned around and rushed home. Before he reach home, he saw his daughter sitting by the door from afar. Her small body curled up in a ball.

His heart instantly ached.

"Little Wan-er."

He approached his daughter and called her softly.

Little Wan-er raised her head. A pair of dark eyes looked at him. For a long time, she remained silent. Then she lowered her head to stare at the ground again.

Qiao Zhen Min's heart dropped. He couldn't help but panic.

He hadn't seen his daughter like this for a long time!

He quickly picked up his daughter. Only then, he noticed her little face had been bitten a good few times by mosquitoes: "Why didn't you stay at Auntie Li's house? Does it hurt? Dad will go back and smear it with balm."

Still no response from Little Wan-er.

Qiao Zhen Min hugged her even tighter. If his daughter changed back to before, he would never forgive himself!

The main reason for his second marriage was for his daughter. He didn't want his daughter to be separated from him all the time. But his job made him unable to take care of her. Finding a partner was the best solution at the moment.

Therefore, when his director introduced Shi Qin Xin to him, he didn't refuse. Before meeting Shi Qin Xin, he asked around to inquire about the other party's character and personality. Everyone said that she was gentle and open. A good girl. That was why he decided to meet her.

Afterward the relationship was confirmed. Her character was indeed as gentle and generous as others said. She was very patient with children. So he made up his mind to remarry.

After half a year of marriage, everything was fine. He really didn't understand how it suddenly changed!

Qiao Zhen Min took his daughter home and washed her face and hands with warm water first. Then he rubbed the mosquito bites on her face with balm. Lastly, he went to get two bowls of noodles.

During the whole process, little Wan-er remained silent.

Once it was dinner time, Qiao Zhen Min gave her the poached egg in his bowl and spoke, "Was little Wan-er scared today? Eat more eggs to suppress the fear."

Little Wan-er stared at the two poached eggs in the bowl. After a moment of silence, she said quietly, "When Mom went grocery shopping, she met a man. Don't know what that man said. Mom quarreled with him. That man pushed Mom. Mom fell. That man ran away."

"Once at home, Mom said she wasn't feeling well after cooking. I wanted to find Dad. Mom didn't let me go. She slipped and fell when she came to grab me. Then she was bleeding. A lot of blood..."

Reaching this point, little Wan-er's eyes were staring straight. Her little body was visibly trembling.

Qiao Zhen Min swiftly went over and held her in his arms: "Don't be scared. Don't be scared. Dad is here. Everything will be fine."

After a while, little Wan-er slowly calmed down.

Qiao Zhen Min controlled the anger in his heart and carefully asked, "Who is that man? Has little Wan-er met him before? And why did you know that Mom met that man?"

Little Wan-er whispered, "I'm afraid that Mom will be tricked by kidnappers. So every time she goes shopping, I secretly follow her. I haven't seen that man before. However, Mom seems to know him."

In little Wan-er's heart, kidnappers were the most terrifying people in the world.

She liked this new mom. She was afraid of new mom getting kidnapped. That was why she secretly followed every time Mom went.

Qiao Zhen Min's hands under the table clenched into fists. After a lot of effort, he suppressed his anger. He rubbed her hair and comforted, "Don't be afraid. Mom is fine. She is now in the hospital."

Little Wan-er looked up and asked, "Fine?"

Qiao Zhen Min nodded: "En, she's fine. So little Wan-er doesn't have to worry. It's not your fault that Mom bleed. She was injured when she fell the first time. Little Wan-er promise Dad this; don't blame yourself, ok?"

His little Wan-er was so well-behaved and kind. Because she was worried about Shi Qin Xin getting kidnapped, she secretly protect her every time. But what she didn't know was that the person she want to protect wanted to send her away!

The most infuriating part was that her miscarriage wasn't little Wan-er's fault at all. Yet she put such a big responsibility on a four-year-old child!

She clearly knew that little Wan-er was different from other children. If little Wan-er shoulder this mistake, she might become autistic again because of guilt!

Shi Qin Xin couldn't be forgiven!

He originally wanted everyone to calm down a bit before discussing a solution. But now it seem it was no longer necessary to maintain this marriage contract!

Little Wan'er blinked her dark eyes and said, "What about Younger Brother? Is Younger Brother okay?"

Qiao Zhen Min's throat was a little choked: "Younger Brother was taken away by Grandma. It will take a long time before he come home. Little Wan-er misses Grandfather, Grandmother, and Elder Sister Da Qiao? Dad will take you back tomorrow to see them, okay?"

Little Wan-er's eyes lit up at once: "Can we really?"

She missed Elder Sister so much. But Dad was too busy. She hadn't seen Elder Sister for a long time.

Seeing his daughter like this, Qiao Zhen Min's heart felt more and more uncomfortable: "Of course. You can think up with something Elder Sister Da Qiao likes first. We will buy it tomorrow. After buying it, you can take it back and give it to Elder Sister Da Qiao, okay?"

"Okay." Little Wan-er curled her lips. Finally, a smile appeared on her pale little face.

...

The next day, Qiao Zhen Min took little Wan-er to the county department store to buy a lot of things. Afterward, he took a leave of absence from the company and returned to the production team.

Seeing Da Qiao, little Wan-er immediately let go of Dad's hand and flew over: "Elder Sister Da Qiao!"

Da Qiao immediately caught her charging younger sister and smiled sweetly: "Little Wan-er, Elder Sister misses you dearly!"

Little Wan-er also missed her elder sister very much, but she was too embarrassed to voice it out. Still, her hand tightly held Elder Sister's hand. A meek smile hung on her small lip.

Then she gave the gift she brought back to Elder Sister. Da Qiao was ecstatic and took out her treasure to share with Younger Sister.

The sisters kept chatting together. The scene was cute and warm.

Qiao Zhen Min watched them and suddenly wondered if he really made the right decision back then to take his daughter away.

When Qiao Xiu Zhi saw her son come back alone with Granddaughter, she immediately realized something was wrong.

After distributing the things brought back to the children, she asked, "Where's your wife? Why didn't she come back with you? Did something happen?"

Facing his mom's fiery eyes, Qiao Zhen Min had a feeling of being seen through: "Mom, Qin Xin had a miscarriage yesterday."

Qiao Xiu Zhi frowned: "She had a miscarriage yesterday and you didn't stay by her side to take care of her. Instead, you run back. If you don't have a reasonable explanation, see how I'll sort you out!"

In Qiao Family, apart from not beating women, a man can't be a hands-off guy. Even naive Qiao Zhen Guo would piggyback his wife to the doctor, bring food, and change medicine when she was sick. He also took care of Wan Chun Ju's post-natal confinement.

So now that Shi Qin Xin had a miscarriage, Qiao Zhen Min brought his daughter back. If there was no unavoidable reason, then she will definitely teach him a good lesson!

Qiao Zhen Min sighed and recount to his parents what happened.

He really couldn't understand whether it was because his marriage fate was too bad, or because he was too blind as found the wrong person twice in a row!

After listening to Qiao Zhen Min's words, Qiao Xiu Zhi and Xue Chuan exchanged glance and saw anger and helplessness in each other's eyes.

They thought old Fifth would definitely be able to live in peace this time. How long was it since the wedding and something happen?

It can't be getting divorced again?

Divorce was a bit unreasonable because of this matter. It was normal for bumps and cracks to appear in marriage. Things didn't go one's way in eight or nine out of ten case. If everyone gets divorced at every turn, it was estimated that more than 90% of the entire production team will have already divorced.

But if they don't get divorced, little Wan-er will definitely not be able to live with them. Now it was up to old Fifth to choose.

Qiao Zhen Min was silent for a while, "Dad, Mom, I want to get a divorce. From now on, I will take care of little Wan-er by myself and not get married."

What Shi Qin Xin did was nothing compared to Chen Qiao Qiao. But she had already developed hostility toward little Wan-er. If they had children in the future, she wouldn't tolerate little Wan-er.

In other words, he either sacrifice his marriage or his daughter.

His choice hadn't changed since the beginning.

Qiao Xiu Zhi sighed and spoke: "Think carefully. Little Wan-er will stay at home for the time being. If you really make up your mind to get a divorce, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep this job anymore. So are sure that you have thought it through?"

Qiao Zhen Min replied in a heavy voice, "Thought it through."

His director was a relative of Shi Family. If he divorces Shi Qin Xin, they will definitely not let him continue to work there.

He had thought of this for a long time and his decision wouldn't change.

After two days at home, he returned to the county city.

Shi Family had been waiting for Qiao Zhen Min to come to apologize. They didn't expect that they waited for him to say he wanted a divorce!

Shi Family was furious!

Shi Qin Xin's eldest brother and younger brother rushed up to beat Qiao Zhen Min, but was stopped by Father Shi.

The younger brother was young and energetic. What's more, he had the best relationship with Second Elder Sister. At this time, his face was red with anger: "Dad, why are you stopping us? This kind of scum deserve a bloody beating!"

Father Shi gave the younger son a warning stare before asking Qiao Zhen Min, "Why did you make this decision? What did you tell us when you came to ask for marriage? You said you would take good care of Qin Xin. How long has it been since then and you want to get a divorce? Qin Xin had a miscarriage because of your daughter..."

"Little Wan-er has nothing to do with her miscarriage!"

From entering until now, Qiao Zhen Min didn't retaliate no matter how Shi Family scolded him.

Because this matter wasn't serious enough to need a divorce. Once they get divorced, it will cause great harm to Shi Qin Xin. Still, he will never allow them to continue to slander little Wan-er!

Mother Shi was pissed: "At this time, you still want to protect your daughter? Qin Xin said that she fell down after being bumped into by little Wan-er!"

Qiao Zhen Min sneered, "So Qin Xin hasn't told you yet. She met her ex-husband on the day of her miscarriage and was pushed by him?"

"What?"

Shi Family were shocked when they heard this!

Shi Family's younger brother came back to his senses. Furious, he wanted to rush over and beat Qiao Zhen Min: "You b*stard, don't pour dirty water on my elder sister!"

Qiao Zhen Min dodged the incoming punch and coldly stated, "Your elder sister knows better than anyone if I pour dirty water! Also, little Wan-er never bumped into her from beginning to end. It was little Wan-er who found out she was unwell and wanted to tell me. However, Qin Xin wanted to stop her and unexpected slipped. That's why she had a miscarriage!"

Upon his plausible explanation, Shi Family couldn't help but wonder. Was it really like what he said?

It was just that Daughter had divorced that beast. Why did they still meet? Why did she hid the truth of being pushed down by the other party and put the blame on a little girl?

If that was the case, no wonder Son-in-law was so mad that he want to divorce!

Mother Shi was also exasperated. She felt that she had been tricked by her daughter!

If her daughter told her the truth, she would never have said those words to Qiao Zhen Min at that time.

Yes, indeed.

Little Wan'er was Qiao Zhen Min's off-limit spot. If Mother Shi and Shi Qin Xin didn't mention sending little Wan-er back to his hometown, he won't be this angry even if he knew that she miscarried due to her ex-husband.

With an embarrassed smile, Mother Shi spoke, "Zhen Min, there may be some misunderstanding in this matter. Qin Xin..."

Before she could finish speaking, she heard the door on the opposite side being opened. Shi Qin Xin appeared at the door with two lines of tears rolling from her eyes.

Mother Shi was vexed and helpless in her heart. Her daughter had already divorced once. And if she divorce again, it won't be just her daughter losing decency. Their entire Shi Family wouldn't need to go out to meet people!

She quickly pulled her daughter over and said, "Why are you being in a daze? Still not coming out and explain to Zhen Min. Hurry up and say you didn't see that scumbag that day!"

Shi Qin Xin met Qiao Zhen Min's gaze. She couldn't refute.

When Qiao Zhen Min saw her expression, he knew: "Qin Xin, let's peacefully break up. I'll give you half of the money I made before. Take it as my compensation to you!"

A second divorce after less than half a year of marriage was indeed a heavy blow to a woman.

He sincerely liked her. And she almost gave birth to their child. So the money was regarded as compensation for her.

Shi Qin Xin's heart felt like it was cut up by a knife. She burst into tears: "Zhen Min, I'm not going to divorce! I know I'm wrong. That b*stard suddenly pestered me that day. I was afraid you will think that I have done something with him and wronged you. I was afraid of you assuming Chen Qiao Qiao and I are the same kind. So I dare not let you know!"

In fact, she didn't fully tell the truth.

Her ex-husband was good at painting figures. When the two of them were affectionate, he painted her a very bold painting in which she was dressed in a very revealing way.

When she was divorced, she wanted to burn the painting, but she couldn't find it. She had asked the scumbag. He said he didn't know. Never thought it was hidden by him long ago!

That day, he threatened her with the painting and told her to buy the painting back with 100 yuan. If not, he would show the painting to Qiao Zhen Min. She was angry and scared. So she quarreled with him and unexpectedly got pushed by that scumbag!

She didn't dare to let other people know that her ex-husband came to her as she was afraid of everyone knowing that she had such "shameless" painting painted!

"So you put the miscarriage blame on little Wan-er's head?" Qiao Zhen Min snorted, "Your reason is too ridiculous, isn't it?"

It was alright that she didn't want to mention her ex-husband matter. She could had said she had fallen by herself. Why did she have to push it on a four-year-old child?

To put it bluntly, she just can't tolerate little Wan-er!

Shi Qin Xin's mouth opened and closed again and again. She couldn't refute a word.

The situation took a turn for the worse. Before, Shi Family was so arrogant that they wanted to tear up Qiao Zhen Min. But now that they heard Shi Qin Xin's response, they could no longer be tough.

Mother Shi slapped her daughter on the back twice and scolded: "You damn child. What do you want me to say about you! Zhen Min, Qin Xin knows she's wrong. It's not a big deal. There's no need to reach the point of divorce, no?"

Qiao Zhen Min stated: "Not divorcing is possible. As long as Qin Xin promises that every penny earned in the family will be used as a dowry when little Wan-er gets married, then I won't divorce."

All give to little Wan-er?

Then what was this marriage for!

In the end, even if Shi Qin Xin agreed, Shi Family wouldn't agree.

Eventually they got divorced.

On the day of the divorce, Qiao Zhen Min personally handed 400 yuan to Shi Qin Xin. Calmly looking at her, he spoke, "Do you know how I knew that you were pushed by your ex-husband, oh no, it should your ex-ex-husband?"

Pale face, Shi Qin Xin didn't respond. She was curious though.

"It was little Wan-er who told me. She was afraid that you would be kidnapped by kidnappers. Every time you went out to buy grocery, she would quietly follow you and said she want to protect you. But you... aren't worthy of her liking!"

After speaking, Qiao Zhen Min stopped looking at her and turned to leave.

Shi Qin Xin watched his back go farther and farther. Finally she crouched down, hugged her legs, and bitterly cried.

Just don't know whether she was crying for wronging little Wan-er or the lost of her marriage.

Because of Shi Qin Xin's plea, the transportation company didn't dismiss Qiao Zhen Min. However, Qiao Zhen Min took the initiative to pack up and leave after a few days.

Though other party didn't dismiss him after such a matter, they did kick him out of the 'oil content team' and never assigned him any more business trips.

Without oil content, this job was hard and boring. Why should he stay?

It might be better to go back to town and find a job. This way, he can be closer to home and make it easier for him to take care of his daughter and parents.

Half a month after their divorce, Shi Qin Xin's ex-husband got his legs broken by someone.

Half a year later, Shi Qin Xin was matchmade to another province by a distant relative. Later, she didn't return for many years.

Divorced twice in less than two years and there were two more divorce certificates in the drawer that could not be thrown away. It made Qiao Zhen Min extremely depressed.

Although he appeared to be unaffected on the surface, he was actually very depressed.

It can be said that the reason for marrying Chen Qiao Qiao was because he was too young and made a hasty decision. This time with Shi Qin Xin, he decided to marry after repeated confirmations. Unexpectedly, this was the result.

Chen Qiao Qiao gave him a green hat and wanted him to raise a cuckoo son. So disgusted, he never wanted to see her again in this life.

Although Shi Qin Xin wasn't an objectively bad person, she was too selfish. If this marriage continued, she will only hurt little Wan-er in the end.

Qiao Zhen Min took out the wine and made himself drunk. In the end, he fell asleep unconscious.

After falling asleep, he had a dream.

In the dream, Da Qiao didn't pick up a hundred years old Ganoderma lucidum. Nor did he take little Wan-er to see a doctor in the provincial capital. Due to this, Wan-er didn't go missing. He also didn't divorce Chen Qiao Qiao.

It was just that in the dream, he still went to work in the transportation team in the county city. After three years of working, the comrades of the transportation team were caught by the police. A big cap of reselling was put on and those comrades who were caught in the act were all shot.

Although he wasn't caught in act, he was affected; sentenced to twenty years in prison!

Less than half a year after he was in prison, Chen Qiao Qiao left his daughter and eloped with another. In his dream, his parents passed away two years ago. He could only entrust little Wan-er to his two elder brothers to adopt.

In his fifth year in prison, his elder brother came and told him that little Wan-er had drowned!

He woke up from the dream and broke out in a cold sweat.

After he washed his face, he decided to destroy all traces of his connection with the transportation team before leaving!

...

Once the production team knew that Qiao Zhen Min was divorced again, they exploded again.

"How long have it been since they married? Why are divorced again?"

"That's right. I went to Qiao's house to inquire. Qiao Family didn't say anything! Eldest Qiao's wife is afraid of her mother-in-law scolding her and dared not speak. But I heard rumors that old Fifth Qiao is not only divorced, but also lost his job!"

"My goddess, what is going on? Do you think old Fifth Qiao wronged the other party?"

"It's possible. I'm afraid he had offend someone with great background and implicate us when the time comes!"

There ware endless speculations. Qiao Family never outright responded.

After this divorce, Qiao Zhen Min had changed from a sweet treat to a hot potato that no one cared about.

Although Qiao Family was still prosperous and Qiao Zhen Min found a job in the town later, it couldn't withstand against his repeated divorces. So no matter how good of a catch he was, it was useless!

After Qiao Zhen Min came back, it happened that the driver of the food factory where Qiao Zhen Jun worked had an accident and couldn't continue to work. After being referred by Qiao Zhen Jun, Qiao Zhen Min went for an interview. Finally after passing the interview, he stayed in the factory.

The two brothers worked in the same factory and could be each other's company.

Many people felt sorry for Qiao Zhen Min after losing his job in the county. They also discussed a lot about his second divorce.

Little do they that was no weal with woe. One year after Qiao Zhen Min left the transportation team in the county, the people in the transportation team were arrested because of reselling.

In these days, reselling was a very serious crime. All those people were sentenced to death.

Some people wanted to pushed the already gone Qiao Zhen Min out. But he had been gone for a year. Secondly, unless he was caught on the spot, it was difficult to find evidence. In the end, Qiao Zhen Min wasn't affected.

Qiao Zhen Min sweated once again when he remembered that dream.

Also, if he hadn't divorced Shi Qin Xin, he would definitely not have escaped this disaster!

Suddenly, he was relieved.

Spring went and autumn came. In the blink of an eye, another three years have passed.

1977 arrived. Da Qiao was eleven years old. She had grown into a young girl with fair skin and beautiful long legs.

Her skin was as white and tender as always. No matter how much she was exposed to the sun, there was no flaw on her face. Her facial features become more and more delicate as they grew. She looks like a little celestial fairy walking out of a painting.

What was more important was that she took the first place in the whole grade every time. The year before last, in the county's primary school graduation exam, she stirred a sensation in the education bureau by being the county's first place.

That time, the county education bureau rewarded her 50 yuan. The town education bureau rewarded her 30 yuan. While the community rewarded her 20 yuan. This added up to exactly 100 yuan!
