Chapter 1581: Deliberately Biased
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
If she could, the first person Miao Jing wanted to create trouble for was those magazines press that reported the matter indiscriminately. News agencies who only knew how to make false reports without concrete evidence shouldn’t even exist in the first place. They would only cause the good social atmosphere to become foul.
“Old Zhai, I really don’t mean to chide anyone, but aren’t there any regulations for this matter? You will just let them report this indiscriminately? The central government allows this?”
“How could that be?” Zhai Yaohui shook his head. It had been so many years. Miao Miao’s character was still the same as when she was young. She had a fiery temper and was very anxious. “This matter created an opportunity for us to take a look at the structure now. Once the limelight is over, we will take care of those who should be taken care of and won’t let anyone escape.”
Was it that easy to attack the people from the central government?
If there were any rumors about Qiao Nan, would she still be able to take on the position of the minister of foreign affairs back then? Did they really think that the people from the central government and the leaders didn’t know anything about the situation below and dared to casually use and promote anyone?
It was impossible for the China leaders.h.i.+p team to use someone who couldn’t be used and malign someone just because of some rumors. It could only be said that those who wanted to create trouble didn’t understand the central government fully.
“Don’t be anxious about this matter. As a junior, Nan Nan isn’t even anxious. Why are you so anxious instead?” Zhai Yaohui felt a bit helpless that Miao Jing wasn’t as steady as Qiao Nan. He always felt that this mother and daughter-in-law relations.h.i.+p was quite different. “Haven’t you seen it? Which influential media and news agency dared to report indiscriminately about this matter? When the time comes and Nan Nan has clarified the matter, these news agencies would spread the truth immediately and rectify Nan Nan’s name. Have some patience, Miao Miao. Learn from Nan Nan. Be more steady.”
As the party concerned, in the face of so many sharp and untrue attacks, Qiao Nan, who was only in her thirties, stood firmly in place and didn’t feel sad at all. Through this incident, Zhai Yaohui once again had a deeper understanding of Qiao Nan. He always believed that Qiao Nan could handle this matter well and wouldn’t panic.
However, he didn’t expect that Qiao Nan could be so calm that it was as if she was just a bystander in this matter.
Zhai Yaohui agreed once again that Zhai Sheng was simply lucky to have fancied Qiao Nan back when she was still young. At this age, he was still surprised by Qiao Nan’s outstanding performance. Ten years ago, Qiao Nan was still childish. Zhai Sheng’s foresight back then wasn’t as sharp as now. It was purely out of appreciation for the opposite s.e.x that Zhai Sheng would like Qiao Nan. He wasn’t standing in the Zhai family’s perspective to choose a suitable candidate to be the Zhai family’s daughter-in-law.
It was precisely because of this that Zhai Yaohui understood that sometimes, luck was rarer than capabilities!
Both his son and daughter-in-law were so lucky that people would be jealous and envious of them. Zhai Yaohui felt at ease.
Miao Jing frowned. “Is that so? You’re not just coaxing me? If that’s the case, why hasn’t there been any movement at all?” It wasn’t just a day or two since this happened. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been so anxious. “I get angry when I think about it. What kind of person is she? To think she had the cheek to cry in front of the camera and tell everyone that they are biological sisters. I really don’t understand why she didn’t feel shameless when she said this!”
If they were biological sisters, why would Qiao Zijin dare to smear Nan Nan’s reputation?
The triplets already knew what had happened to Qiao Nan when she was young. As such, the Zhai family paid a lot of attention not to let the triplets see the nonsensical words Qiao Zijin had said or for them to get involved in this matter. The Zhai family was worried that the three children were still young and couldn’t control their emotions well.
Even Miao Jing, an adult, couldn’t be of help in this matter, let alone the triplets. Since they couldn’t be of help, it was useless for them to know and let their mood for studying be affected. Thus, it was better not to let the three children know about this.
Zhai Yaohui poured a gla.s.s of water for Miao Jing. “See, you’re still not listening. Do you only know what kind of person Qiao Zijin is for the first time today?” Of course, Zhai Yaohui was quite ‘convinced’ by Qiao Zijin. Money moved people’s hearts. In order to lead a good life, Qiao Zijin was so shameless and thick-skinned to have done this completely without thinking. Did she still have any dignity left?
Miao Jing waved her hands in irritation. “Fine, I’m not going to mention it again. The more we chat, the angrier I am. Such a person would definitely not lead a good life in the future. Her parents had published a clarification note to break off all ties with her, yet she doesn’t know how to reflect on this. Heh. Qiao Zijin must have completely inherited Ding Jiayi’s cold temperament.”
This mother-and-daughter pair shared the same character.
What made Miao Jing angry was that there was still a way to deal with Qiao Zijin. If they said no money was given, no money would be given. Even if Qiao Zijin kicked up a fuss and threw all her face, she didn’t need to think about getting a single cent from Qiao Nan. However, Qiao Nan could ignore Qiao Zijin but not Ding Jiayi. Ding Jiayi had given birth to Qiao Nan. In terms of morality and human nature, it wasn’t that good for Qiao Nan to completely ignore Ding Jiayi.
If Qiao Nan led an ordinary life now, the criticism Qiao Nan faced would be relatively less. However, Qiao Nan had a high status and received a lot of inheritance from Elder Lin. Miao Jing knew that there were a lot of unreasonable people in society who badmouthed others nowadays, and they were deliberately biased.
It was precisely because of this that even if they were unwilling to, due to their status in society, they had to go against their wishes and let Ding Jiayi lead a good life. Of course, they didn’t lack this amount of money. It was just that it was infuriating to let a person like Ding Jiayi spend their money.
She would rather use this amount of money to build a school or subsidize poor students to study than to let Ding Jiayi gain from it. Thinking of middle-aged women who were of Ding Jiayi’s age, most of them were still working and supporting themselves. Who would be like Ding Jiayi, having worked for less than five years when she was already in her fifties?
To be honest, it was difficult to find people who could enjoy life similar to Ding Jiayi in this world.
Miao Jing didn’t understand why a heartless person like Ding Jiayi was luckier than ordinary people and could enjoy the monthly allowance provided by Qiao Nan. There was no reason for this! It was better to treat Ding Jiayi like Qiao Zijin, leaving her to die on her own. Even if she wasn’t left to die on her own, Ding Jiayi should at least be forced to support herself and not be dependent on others to survive.
Before Miao Jing married, she was a very independent woman. Her parents had died early as they were helping Old Master Zhai, causing her to become an orphan.
