Chapter 1,770: Read It Yourself
Qiao Dongliang always knew the address of the house that Qiao Nan rented, and he also knew that the house was not very big, but he had never been there. Therefore, Qiao Dongliang inquired for a long time in order to find the house Qiao Nan rented.
"Are you Qiao Nan's father?" When Qiao Nan's old landlord saw that Qiao Dongliang was dressed like a dog and his face looked quite honest, the landlord smiled coldly. This is Qiao Nan's scumbag father. Dear relatives. Sure enough, people should not be judged by their appearance. He should be quite honest and kind-hearted, but who knows, if he becomes ruthless, he really doesn't regard his daughter as a human being.
"Yes, you are Nan Nan's landlord, right? Thanks to you for taking care of Nan Nan. Thank you. I came to see Nan Nan. Which apartment does Nan Nan come from?" Qiao Dongliang didn't notice that the landlord was looking at him. The look in her eyes was not very good, just because Qiao Nan mentioned to Qiao Dongliang that her landlord was very nice, so even if she lived outside, it would be fine.
With this rare opportunity today, Qiao Dongliang finally remembered his responsibility as a father and specially thanked the landlord.
"Which one?" The landlord snorted and raised his voice. He thought Qiao Dongliang's words were particularly funny: "How about I take you to have a look?" Qiao Nan is willing to rent a small house for herself, so why not? Then it would make outsiders like them feel distressed.
"Oh, okay, I'm sorry to bother you." Qiao Dongliang was embarrassed that he couldn't even figure out which apartment his daughter lived in, and he had to ask the landlord to guide him. But at the same time, Qiao Dongliang really believed that his daughter lived here and was well taken care of by the landlord. Otherwise, the landlord would not have been so kind to him and would personally show him the way.
Following behind the landlord, Qiao Dongliang originally wanted to go up the stairs. Who knows, the landlord turned to one side and instead of going upstairs, he walked towards the side of the stairs. Qiao Dongliang, who was raising his legs to go up the stairs, saw the landlord's action and wondered. There was no room downstairs. Where was the landlord planning to take him?
In fact, the landlord has not gone anywhere. As for the ground floor, because the location is better, most of them will be used as storefronts after it is opened. So starting from the second floor, there are rooms rented to people. In such a prosperous area, there is a relatively dead corner, which is a space under the independent staircase built outside the store.
In that small space, a wall was built, with a door and a small, square window. The landlord inserted the key into the door and opened it with a click: "This is where Qiao Nan lived before. Do you want to take a good look and feel it?"
The landlord is not the kind of person who is heartless just to make money. For such a small place, winter is okay, but summer is really hot and life-threatening. The place was small, and before meeting Qiao Nan, the landlord had never thought of building a wall under the stairs to create another room.
But at that time, Qiao Nan was too depressed and didn't have much money. It was impossible to rent a decent place. It just so happened that at that time, a lot of things were piled up on this staircase due to the previous renovation of the house, and a small space of six or seven square meters was separated from the ventilation passages on all sides.
When Qiao Nan came to the door and said he wanted to rent this place, the landlord himself was dumbfounded. He kept saying that this was not a room, it was so small and could not accommodate anyone.
But Qiao Nan insisted, and the landlord saw that Qiao Nan's situation was very difficult, so he only agreed after Qiao Nan's persuasion. Before Qiao Nan moved in, the landlord specially asked people to move away the piled things. If he really wanted to live in the house, it would not cost much to buy some bricks and build a wall.
She doesn't plan to use this space. Now, she still has to collect Qiao Nan's rent. No matter how cheap it is, it's still an extra income. Therefore, the landlord had to clean up the space before letting Qiao Nan move in.
Hearing what the landlord said, Qiao Dongliang was dumbfounded and stammered: "You, are you kidding? This is just a passage under the stairs. It is such a small space and is not usually used for storing debris. How can someone live there?”
This is Pingcheng, and it's not a place like the Capital City or the Magic City, where every inch of money is worth the money. Even a small underground garage can be rented out for two or three hundred.
Therefore, Qiao Dongliang felt that with Qiao Nan's earning power, even if he paid most of his salary and couldn't buy himself an apartment, he wouldn't live in such a poor place. To be honest, this is really the first time Qiao Dongliang comes to the place where Qiao Nan lives.
In the past, if anything happened at home, Qiao Nan would go back to Qiao's house. Furthermore, if there is a need to take the initiative to find Qiao Nan, Ding Jiayi will take the initiative to ask for help. Qiao Dongliang thought very well. He felt that his youngest daughter had a good temper, was kind and filial, and all the money she earned was given to her family. As long as Ding Jiayi has more contact with Qiao Nan and sees people's hearts over time, Ding Jiayi will always be moved by Qiao Nan and treat Qiao Nan well.
The problem is that the current situation makes Qiao Dongliang feel very uncomfortable. It's like all the oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea have been turned upside down. He has all kinds of tastes in his heart, except that there is no sweetness: "My Nannan is really here How many years have you lived in this place?”
Qiao Dongliang You refused to give up and asked again. Qiao Dongliang asked himself that he could endure hardship, but after looking at the environment here, he found that let alone how many years he had lived there, he couldn't say for sure, even one year. Can't stand it. But his youngest daughter survived for several years.
"It's not just a few years. Nan Nan has lived here with me for almost ten years. You are a good father." Seeing that Qiao Dongliang really didn't know anything, the landlord's attitude towards Qiao Dongliang It's not much better.
My daughter is not picked up.
My unmarried daughter has lived in a rented house for more than ten years, but her father has never taken the initiative to come to her house to see how the house and environment are. How much confidence does he have in his daughter, or how little care does he have for her, to be able to do this: "Nannan is not here either, I just asked casually, is Nannan really your biological child? Wasn't she picked up?"
How can you treat a biological child like this? If she was picked up, it's just like this.
Qiao Dongliang's face turned red, not knowing how to answer. After a long time, he squeezed out a sentence: "Has my Lao Ding been here?"
"Of course I have been here. Every time your family is short of money, your wife comes to my place to make a fuss and take some money from Nannan's pocket." The landlord was happy. If no one in the Qiao family knew where Qiao Nan lived, she would not think that the Qiao family was a good thing. Now that Qiao Nan has moved out, the Qiao family is treating her as if she's dead. They want to have no contact with her forever and ignore her to this extent. How can she accept this?
