781 Being Careful
“Happy? What’s there to be happy about? Your son is sending my son to jail! What’s there to be happy about!” Wang Qin said without backing down.
“What are you talking about? How is my son sending your son to jail?” Qiao Fu asked curiously.
However, Qiao Feng was dismissive. He spread out his hands and said helplessly, “I didn’t ask Qiao Tian to do this. He did it on his own.”
Seeing that his eldest grandson had admitted to it, Qiao Zhuang focused and listened carefully to what they were saying.
“If you hadn’t asked my son to bring Zhang Qin into the mountains, would she have gotten into an accident? My son said that you were the one who pushed Zhang Qin. Go to Qiao Mei’s house tomorrow and make things clear. Don’t let my son take the blame for you,” Wang Qin said.
Qiao Feng was not afraid at all. He had planned this matter very well. It was Qiao Tian who brought Zhang Qin into the mountains and Qiao Feng did not show his face along the way at all. Moreover, when he pushed Zhang Qin, her back was facing him and it was impossible for her to see his face.
There was no witness or physical evidence. Who could say that he was the one who did it?
He originally wanted to do this on his own, but he was already 15 years old this year. In the countryside, a 15-year-old child was considered half an adult. If something happened, he may be sent to jail. However, Qiao Tian was different. He was only nine years old and still a child. Even if the authorities pursued the matter, he would at most get criticized and be reeducated, which was not really a punishment at all.
Initially, Qiao Feng even wanted to get Qiao Guang to do it, but Qiao Guang did not want to listen to him at all. Qiao Guang was only five years old and could not outrun Zhang Qin. If Zhang Qin managed to snatch her things back, the gains would not make up for the losses.
Therefore, only the silly Qiao Tian was the most suitable candidate.
After hearing them out, Qiao Zhuang roughly understood what was going on. He coughed twice and said, “This matter ends here. Qiao Fu will give you some money to repair the window later. There’s no need to talk about anything else. At most, Qiao Tian will be criticized. If Qiao Tian was not willing to do this, would Qiao Feng be able to force him to do it?”
“Then my son…” Before Wang Qin could finish speaking, Qiao Zhuang glared at her fiercely.
Now that her husband was not around, if Qiao Zhuang chased her out, she would be in dire straits. Wang Qin could only leave aggrievedly. With regard to this matter, she could only suffer in silence.
“Qiao Feng, come here,” Qiao Zhuang said calmly.
Qiao Feng walked to Qiao Zhuang’s side and sat down. He grinned at Qiao Zhuang and said, “Grandpa, what is it?”
Qiao Zhuang did not waste his breath on Qiao Feng and simply gave him a slap. It was not a hard slap, but it was loud. Qiao Feng had never seen Qiao Zhuang ever being angry at him since he was born. He was so scared that he knelt on the brick bed and did not dare to raise his head.
“Do you know what’s your mistake?” Qiao Zhuang asked.
Qiao Feng said fearfully, “Grandpa… I shouldn’t have harmed others… I shouldn’t have asked my younger brother to harm others…”
“No. Your mistake is that your plan is not thorough enough. No matter what, Qiao Tian is still your younger brother. You can’t just protect yourself and not care about your younger brother. Even if Zhang Qin didn’t see your face, what if Qiao Mei goes around to ask your classmates if you were in the classroom during that time? Won’t the truth be exposed then?” Qiao Zhuang said earnestly.
Seeing that Qiao Zhuang did not blame him at all, Qiao Feng quickly looked up and asked eagerly, “Then what should I have done?”
“Get up. Don’t kneel. Can’t you think of a way to harm Zhang Qin when there’s no one around?” Qiao Zhuang sat up and said to Qiao Feng.
Qiao Feng frowned and complained to Qiao Zhuang, “Grandpa! Of course I’ve thought about it! But those children are so close that they even go to the toilet together! They’re never alone!”
“Then you wait. You have to wait until there’s a chance. You have to learn how to bide your time, do you understand? You won’t be able to do anything well if you’re so impatient,” Qiao Zhuang said.
Qiao Wang and Jiang Ye could not stand it anymore and asked their children to go back to the room first. They did not want to hear Qiao Zhuang talking about these crooked ideas. If the children received this type of education, they would go to jail sooner or later.
When Qiao Mei got home, she went to bed and slept soundly. She only woke up in the afternoon. Qiao Qiang also knew that Qiao Mei was exhausted and did not wake her up.
She slowly stretched out and then folded the blanket, preparing to go to Li Gui’s place to take a look at Zhang Qin. Now that Li Gui had to take care of both Zhang Miao and Zhang Qin, Qiao Mei was worried that she would not be able to cope on her own.
