At this point, Zhai Hua, who was convincing Father Zhai, never expected that to Zhai Sheng, the appearance of this exception would lead to many other “exceptions”.

Ding Jiayi had caught a cold after leaning and sleeping on the study room door for an entire night. Fortunately, she did not have a fever but the runny nose and sneezing were non stop.

“Mom, drink some hot tea.” Hearing the sound of Ding Jiayi blowing her nose, Qiao Zijin smirked and knitted her brow. She reluctantly poured a cup of hot beverage for Ding Jiayi.

Ding Jiayi was feeling so sick that tears welled up in her eyes. “Zijin, stay away from me in case I pa.s.s the cold virus to you.”

Although she was drinking the hot tea, Ding Jiayi did not feel any better.

“Mom, have you taken your medicine?”

“Not yet.”

“I will bring you the medicine.” Qiao Zijin went and searched for a long time. “Mom, there’s only the fever medicine leftover by Qiao Nan when she had fever last time. The cold medicine ran out. Mom, you give me money, I’ll go and buy for you.”

Ding Jiayi gave a long sigh. “Forget it. It’s just a cold. I will drink more water later and get well soon.”

Of course, she did not buy the medicine as she was unwilling to part with the money.

Otherwise, she could have bought and taken a few tablets of the medicine on her way back from work.

At this juncture, Ding Jiayi truly felt a little regretful over mindlessly spending so much money during the Lunar New Year period.

Ding Jiayi could not predict Qiao Dongliang’s stand now. Also, the money in her pocket could barely afford Qiao Zijin’s one month of living expenses. There was no way that she could cough up the tuition fees.

Having been married to Qiao Dongliang for so many years, this was the first time that Ding Jiayi felt so desperately poor.

“Mom? Is Dad reluctant to pay my tuition fees?”

“Your Dad, I don’t wish to say anything. Why do you think I caught a cold? Your Dad is too heartless and stubborn.” She was married to Old Qiao for so many years, yet he could bear to let her lean against the door and slept through the night. He did not even cover her with a piece of outerwear. Where was Old Qiao’s conscience?”

“Then what should we do now. School is starting the day after tomorrow. I have to go to school tomorrow!” Qiao Zijin’s eyes were red and she was close to tears. “Without the tuition fees, I will not study anymore. It is so humiliating to owe the tuition fees. I can’t do this!”

“Don’t cry, don’t cry. Mom is sick but it’s bearable. But when you cry, my heart goes out to you. Don’t be anxious, Mom has an idea.” Ding Jiayi pinched her nose, stomp her feet and rushed into her bedroom.

Following that, Ding Jiayi turned the bedroom upside down.

Qiao Nan that wretched girl hid the money well, but she did not believe that Old Qiao would do the same.

Clearly both are Old Qiao’s daughters, there was no reason that only that wretched girl could use Old Qiao’s money?

If Old Qiao was unwilling to hand over his money, then she would take herself!

“Mom, let me help you.” Qiao Zijin hesitated for a while at the entrance. But at the thought that she had to go to school tomorrow, she daringly entered her parent’s bedroom and helped Ding Jiayi on the search.
