Chapter 14 Losing hemp
The next morning.
"Dad, Sister Lin stayed up late to watch videos and is still sleeping now. Please don't wait for her."
After Qiao Yingzi washed up, she went back to her room and changed her clothes, and then prepared to go out for breakfast with her father.
Today is Sunday, and Chen Tao is not a devil. He will not ask employees to work overtime when there are no good projects.
So, today he can accompany his cheap daughter and play with her Lego toys.
As for whether Song Qian would be angry if she found out... Since she was willing to let Qiao Yingzi come over, she would naturally be mentally prepared. At most, she would just preach, and she would not come over for a surprise inspection at all.
Of course, if she really came over and saw the new "family of three", she would probably make a big fuss.
"What do you want to eat, fried dough sticks and soy milk, burgers and cola, or pancakes and steamed buns?"
The location of Xincheng Community is very good. There is a commercial center nearby, so the father and daughter walked there to get some exercise.
"I want them all!"
Thinking of the almost irreparable relationship between her parents, Qiao Yingzi decided to turn her grief and anger into appetite and have a good meal.
However, she was only a small person, and her appetite was not that great. She couldn't eat the rest, so Chen Tao wiped it out.
It's not okay to waste food.
On the way back, Chen Tao was holding the breakfast and bought vegetables of a certain Miss Lin who was lying in bed in one hand, while the other hand was held by his cheap daughter.
"On such a hot day, your palms are sweaty and sticky. Let go!"
Chen Tao advised.
"No, you have Sister Lin. I'm afraid that you won't want me and my mother anymore, so I have to catch you and prevent you from running away."
Qiao Yingzi said rationally.
Chen Tao smiled and said: "You are my daughter. Not only do you have an inseparable and unbreakable blood relationship, but you are also so well-behaved and cute. How could dad not want you?"
Qiao Yingzi rolled her eyes at him: "What about my mother? She hasn't found a partner for so many years. Who is it for?"
Chen Tao said matter-of-factly: "Of course it's for you... She can't be interested in me, right? If that's the case, then why did she insist on divorcing me back then and not treat me well all these years?"
Qiao Yingzi paused for a moment, then said angrily:
"You are so carefree, how can my mother give you such a good look?"
Chen Tao followed his plan and sighed:
"What you said makes sense. I am no longer good enough for your mother. You should persuade her to find a good man again!"
Qiao Yingzi said coquettishly: "Dad, can you use your ability to seduce Sister Lin to please my mother and make her happy?"
Chen Tao preached: "I'm just a busy uncle, how can I have any ability? Just because your sister Lin likes me, doesn't mean your mother also likes me! Relationships are jointly managed by both parties and cannot be paid unilaterally. You You should keep this in mind when looking for a partner in the future.”
Seeing her stinky dad bring the topic to herself, Qiao Yingzi suddenly blushed:
"I'm still in school, why am I looking for someone! Don't talk nonsense in front of my mother, or she will talk about you again!"
Chen Tao nodded: "Don't worry about me. Just relax for a few days and study hard when you go back. Try to make me the dad who tops the college entrance examination."
The top scorer in the college entrance examination?
Qiao Yingzi was stunned: "How can I have such great ability? It would be great if I can maintain my current results!"
Chen Tao snorted: "You can't even get the top prize, so why should I take care of your mother?"
"No, I can't do it!"
Qiao Yingzi shook his head first, then thought of something and asked seriously:
"Dad, are you willing to get back together with my mother only if I rank first in the city in the college entrance examination?"
Chen Tao denied: "I am just using an analogy to let you know that you cannot force others to do things that they absolutely cannot do."
When Qiao Yingzi heard this, she felt depressed again.
She knew very well how capable she was, but she was too far away from being the top scorer in the college entrance examination. It was simply elusive.
At half past nine, the father and daughter returned home.
Miss Lin had already gotten up, and like a good wife, she put on an apron and pretended to clean the house.
But as soon as Chen Tao opened the door, he immediately stumbled to the entrance and took the... breakfast from his hand.
As she ate, she praised:
"Wow, this burrito is delicious. Where did you buy it?"
Qiao Yingzi's eyelids jumped: "Why don't you heat it up in the microwave?"
Miss Lin waved her hand, "No, no, it's so hot, the chicken in the burrito is still hot!"
Then he said to Chen Tao: "Uncle, just leave the dishes there. I will take care of them later."
Qiao Yingzi asked strangely: "Do you still know how to cook?"
Miss Lin smiled and said: "My father is a top chef, and my mother was deceived by him with a dish of 'biluo shrimp'. And I am an only child, so naturally I have to inherit his craftsmanship"
It is worth mentioning that her mother was twenty-one and his father was thirty-four. The first wife was frail and sick and had just died, so she was unable to give him a child.
It's over, my mother's cooking skills have been surpassed by this sister Lin.
Qiao Yingzi roared in her heart, but she could only silently add one more point to Miss Lin on the scoreboard.
Yes, when her mother wasn't making medicinal recipes or thinking out of the blue, her cooking was pretty good, but no matter what, she couldn't beat the descendant of a super chef!
Therefore, this point is definitely lost.
Coupled with the scores in terms of age, appearance, personality, etc., Qiao Yingzi found that her mother was simply losing.
Unless her father was bewitched, how could she choose her mother instead of the versatile Sister Lin?
Qiao Yingzi remained silent and obediently went to the study room to brush up on the questions.
During this period, she also looked through Chen Tao's paintings and saw that he painted Miss Lin very ugly, which made her feel happy for some reason.
But when she left the door, she heard a voice from the kitchen:
"Uncle, what are you doing? You got all the water on my face. It's in the way. I don't need your help. You can just wait and eat."
Miss Lin said virtuously.
Growing up, her father would take the trouble to cook for her mother year after year, just to see the happy smile on her mother's face.
Therefore, she can be regarded as being influenced by what she has seen and heard.
And her "stepdaughter" Qiao Yingzi was in a very unhappy mood.
Especially after eating the food she cooked on the table, Qiao Yingzi found that her mouth and stomach could not refuse such delicious food at all, and her mood became even less beautiful.
So she turned her grief and anger into appetite again and tasted her craftsmanship.
In the afternoon, the weather was a little dull.
Miss Lin caught up on her sleep for a while, then found Chen Tao and continued to teach him how to draw.
Chen Tao also studied seriously, not just to pass the time.
After Qiao Yingzi woke up, she continued to answer questions and reported her learning results to her mother.
