Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 2044: Accumulated Experience

The corners of the neighbor’s lips curled up into a slight smile. “The name list for the interview was already published. I didn’t expect that... Hehehe. The Qiao family has really risen up riding on the coattails of a dragon! But we don’t have to care about the Qiao family anymore as long as our hundred thousand yuan didn’t go to waste.” No matter how upset and dissatisfied she was, there were some things that she would never get no matter how envious she was. Besides, she had always felt that her daughter was very good and no worse than anyone else.

At the mention of the hundred thousand yuan that her family had spent, the young lady’s expression changed. Although she had just entered society, that young lady had caught the subtle hint through the call. “Mom, why do I feel as though we’ve spent money in vain? No one in the Qiao family, apart from Sister Qiao Nan, is a good person. They’re practically scammers!”

This hundred thousand yuan was her parents’ hard-earned money. She could not let the Qiao family take advantage of them just like that. The problem was that it would be a challenge to get that sum of money back.

The neighbor’s eyes widened. “What do you mean? How could our money have been wasted? What’s going on? Tell me!” It was a hundred thousand yuan they were talking about! How could they have wasted such a huge sum of money?

After thinking about it, the young lady said, “I’ve been accepted for the interview, but if I’m not wrong, Qiao Zijin won’t be allowed to attend the interview anymore.” Why was it that she had been accepted while Qiao Zijin, whose name had been published on the name list, was no longer needed at the interview? The young lady could guess the situation after thinking it through.

Thinking about how she would have been able to pass the test based on her own abilities if Qiao Zijin had not gotten in the way, the young lady was infuriated. “Mom, that family is really too evil!” Not only had they kicked her off the list initially, but they even had the guts to demand a hundred thousand yuan from them! Initially, she could have been accepted for the interview even without paying a hundred thousand yuan if Qiao Zijin had not used those underhanded methods!

“I...” The neighbor’s eyes were as wide and fierce as a tiger’s. “See, I told you that that family is pure evil! They stole my hard-earned money! I was so upset that I wasn’t able to eat well in the past few days. That won’t do! How can they bully others like that? I’m going to get my money back. We can’t let them take advantage of us in this way! I won’t even acknowledge her as my neighbor in the future!”

Neither her daughter nor husband tried to stop her from rushing off to get their money back. After all, their family had indeed been taken advantage of. Not only had the Qiao family done them wrong, but they had even demanded money from them! Could anyone get any more malicious than that?

At the same time that the neighbor’s family had received that call, Qiao Zijin had been informed that she no longer needed to attend the interview. “I’m sorry. You don’t fit our requirements, so you don’t have to attend the interview anymore. Even if you do, you won’t be allowed to attend the interview.”

Qiao Zijin had not even managed to process the information before the other party hung up the call. That tone and attitude caused Qiao Zijin to fly into a rage. Did they know who she was? Did they know who her younger sister was and whom she had married a few days ago? They were salaried workers receiving a salary from the government. Soon, she would be one too. How could that person have the guts to speak to her with that tone?

Wait a minute. Did they say that she did not meet the requirements and would not need to go for the interview?

“Mom!” Qiao Zijin screamed in a shrill voice, calling out for Ding Jiayi anxiously. “Mom, hurry on out! Hurry up! Something’s wrong! Mom, what did you do yesterday? Why did you ruin my matter?” She had indeed wanted her mom to earn that hundred thousand yuan, but she had never expected that her mom would ruin everything for her.

If she were to become a civil servant, her yearly salary would far exceed a hundred thousand yuan. As such, she had never thought of giving up a cradle-to-grave job for that small sum of a hundred thousand yuan from that neighbor. If she had to choose between a hundred thousand yuan and a civil service job, she would definitely pick the latter.

Did her mom not know how to differentiate between what was truly important? Had her mom said something wrong or had the person whom her mom had sought out not known what was more important? Why had the situation descended into such a mess? She was Qiao Nan’s biological sister, so her matter was of top priority!

“What’s wrong?” Ding Jiayi rushed over from the kitchen with wet hands. As someone who had just earned a hundred thousand yuan, Ding Jiayi had been in a good mood and had made a trip to the market to purchase some of Qiao Zijin’s favorite seafood to whip up a good meal. As such, she had been busying herself in the kitchen. “What’s the matter? Why are you so anxious? Do you have some good news to share with me?”

Ding Jiayi felt that the last year had been the Qiao family’s most unlucky year. They had run into every unlucky thing one could think of. She had not expected her fortunes to change so quickly and that good things would come one after another. Ding Jiayi felt that she had truly been blessed by the heavens.

“Good news? I won’t be allowed to go for the civil service entrance interview anymore. Is that good news?” Qiao Zijin pointed at her phone. “I just received a call saying that I don’t meet the requirements and that they don’t need me at the interview anymore. Mom, did you hear that? It’s not because I’ve already been accepted as a civil servant that I don’t need to attend the interview. It’s because they don’t want me anymore. Mom, I wonder what you told them yesterday. You’d better go and find out what happened to that neighbor’s daughter. What if that person misunderstood you and gave my place to that person? If that’s the case, you’ve really ruined everything for me, Mom!”

They had let go of the big prize while grabbing at trifles!

Coincidentally, just as these two people were about to clear the air with their neighbor, that neighbor was even faster and had already blocked Ding Jiayi’s way at her door before Ding Jiayi could even get out.

Seeing that they had turned up, Ding Jiayi’s expression changed. “It’s good that you’re here. I have something—”

“Ding Jiayi, you shameless woman! Return me my hundred thousand yuan!” They had been scammed!

Her daughter’s job was already on the line, and the neighbor, who had benefited from the situation, had the cheek to demand a return of that money! Ding Jiayi flew into a rage. “Hehehe. Old neighbors? You’re a bunch of heartless fools! You want me to return your hundred thousand yuan? Fine! If we had not helped your family, nothing would have gone wrong with Zijin’s interview. Since we’re talking about money, I’ll return your hundred thousand yuan to you. Then, our Zijin will be able to go for the interview while your daughter won’t! At that time, you’d better keep your mouth shut and not spout any nonsense!”

It was just a hundred thousand yuan. It was only because this was her first time handling such a matter that she had not done it well. Next year, with experience from this year, she would definitely be able to handle it even better.
