CHAPTER 604: CHAPTER 247: SYSTEM CALLS ME TO SAVE THE DAY (PART 4)

Jiao Jiao wasn’t what one might call a "reincarnator."

She insisted on marrying a man who was clearly mismatched to her own status, not because of various past-life experiences or the ability to foresee the trajectory of her current life, but, merely because of a dream?!

Qiao Zhenbang’s mind was in complete chaos.

On one hand, he felt that the argument about dreaming, although bizarre, fit very well with Jiao Jiao’s character.

After all, Jiao Jiao was a selfish and greedy person.

She would abandon anything for money and her own pleasure.

It was just a matter of calling off an engagement and then pretending to be a dutiful daughter-in-law at her in-laws for a year or two.

Compared with getting hold of a money tree, that was nothing.

Since in Jiao Jiao’s dream, any random piece of Granny Qiao’s embroidery could fetch the exorbitant price of ten thousand yuan.

And all Jiao Jiao had to do was to cozy up to Granny Qiao, encourage her to embroider a few more pieces, and then she could get more of that "ten thousand yuan."

That was certainly much better than marrying Han Ye and depending on a measly monthly allowance of thirty-something yuan to get by.

As for why Jiao Jiao would blindly trust a dream, huh, could you expect a shallow woman who eloped with a random truck driver to be intelligent?

Superficial, greedy, selfish, foolish, and malicious... that’s the real Jiao Jiao.

At that moment, Qiao Zhenbang harbored a profound hatred for Jiao Jiao. Suddenly seeing He Tiantian’s performance, he became even more convinced of her claims about "dreaming."

But on the other hand, Qiao Zhenbang couldn’t ignore the memories in his mind.

The scenes of a previous life were so vivid, as if Qiao Zhenbang had personally experienced them.

He didn’t doubt for a second, feeling that was the absolute truth!

But if there were no issues with the memories in his mind, what about Jiao Jiao’s argument about dreaming?

Could all of those things in his head be just a dream of his own?

Hisss!

Headache!

Qiao Zhenbang stopped exploring what the truth was and began to doubt himself.

"Since you’ve exposed me, I won’t pretend anymore!"

He Tiantian stood up, stretched lazily, and continued with a sharp and biting tone, "Really, if I hadn’t seen your granny actually do embroidery with my own eyes, I might not have believed in that dream at all!"

To the average person, her words didn’t seem to mean much.

But Qiao Zhenbang, who knew "Jiao Jiao" well, heard a deeper implication: If she hadn’t seen Granny Qiao embroider with her own eyes, "Jiao Jiao" wouldn’t have pretended to be part of the Qiao Family for over a year.

Indeed, Jiao Jiao was just a brat spoiled by the company commander couple, who only cared about herself and never spared a thought for anyone else.

The key point was that she was also incredibly stupid.

Just because of a dream, she could easily call off her wedding and marry a lowlife that everyone was against.

For the ten thousand yuan from her dream, she pretended to be virtuous and labored without complaint in the Qiao Family.

But, Jiao Jiao was not a patient person. The reason she endured the Qiao Family for more than a year was not that she had genuinely improved, but because she had actually seen Granny Qiao working with needle and thread.

Seeing it with her own eyes gave Jiao Jiao some confidence.

However, a leopard never changes its spots. Just when Jiao Jiao was about to give up, Qiao Zhenbang coincidentally underwent an "Awakening."

Confronted with Qiao Zhenbang’s questioning, the impatient Jiao Jiao quickly admitted everything!

It had to be said, Qiao Zhenbang’s imagination was divine assistance.

He didn’t even need He Tiantian to strain herself explaining; Qiao Zhenbang sorted everything out.

He Tiantian:... Thanks a lot.

"Now that things have come to this, I won’t beat around the bush. If you still want to live with me, then I’ll stay in the Qiao Family!"

He Tiantian put on a full display of a greedy and shrewish nature, the calculating expression on her face was all too vivid.

"But mind you, things can’t continue like they used to. I won’t be the only one doing all the housework, and your granny has to stop being idle and start embroidering pronto!"

"Your mom, too, should stop complaining about her poor health all day, hmph, when I hadn’t married in, I didn’t see her being all delicate and pampered!"

"And your brother and sister better behave themselves as well. If they’re supposed to be at school, they should go to school, and come back quickly after to help out with work. If they’re really not learning anything, they should just come home instead of wasting tuition money!"

"... Oh, and you. Stop loitering around doing nothing. I’ve heard they’ve loosened up the policies now, allowing individuals to do business. Aren’t you well-connected? Then find some of your shady friends and peddle some goods in the city!"

He Tiantian spoke her mind unabashedly, laying out plans for every member of the Qiao Family.
