Chapter 20: Domineering fans of the queen (20)

As the Spring Festival approaches, there are many more festive topics on the Internet. No one wants to mention the dirty things of Lin Yan and Liu Jie. They just disappeared from the screen.
"Life Is Really Beautiful" is being promoted lively. Xu Zifan and Qiao Zixin also appeared on several well-known variety shows, with a few more characters in the movie, Xiaosheng and Xiaohua, showing their faces in front of everyone.
The Qiao family of three sat on the sofa and watched TV on weekends. As soon as the show was broadcast, the young man sitting in the middle exclaimed, "Isn't this Qiao Zixin? She is as beautiful as she used to be? When will you come back? "
Mother Qiao glanced at Daddy Qiao’s face and said,
Your sister doesn’t always come back during Chinese New Year, but the gift will definitely be sent back.
She handed the peeled oranges over and said with a smile,
This orange is sweet. Ten yuan a catty is very expensive, Xiaopeng, eat more."
Qiao Zhipeng glanced at the dozens of oranges per catty, then looked at the glamorous Qiao Zixin on the TV, and said, "Aunt Yu, you are too saving. Don’t Qiao Zixin give you money every month? Buy some oranges. Too expensive?"
"I didn't mean that. Didn't the previous money be used to buy a house? I want to keep the rest for future use..."
"Well, if you want to watch TV, just watch TV, what a lot of nonsense!" Qiao's father frowned, "Sun Yu, you call Zixin and ask her if she will be back during the Chinese New Year. A girl always stays outside. What's the matter? It's as if I can't tolerate her. You remember to ask clearly what happened to her and that director Xu. We can't have a child with a bad reputation, or let others think of me?"
"Okay, this kid is not obedient, I will tell her well." Mom Qiao put down the orange, picked up the phone and went back to the room to call.
Qiao Zixin was having dinner with Xu Zifan at home. She was taken aback when she saw her mother's phone call and answered, "Mom? Are you looking for me?"
"If I don’t find you, you don’t know how to call home to care about and care. It’s not caring to raise you so much. You know that you are fooling around outside. Your dad asked me to ask you if you can come back during the New Year. I see you. You have to come back, you have caused such a big incident, why you have to come back and explain to your relatives so that they can all see that you are fine now, or I can't hold my head up in front of them."
Qiao Zixin frowned, "Mom, I didn't commit a crime, why can't you stand up? You have to compare children with them. Their children can't learn or work. Am I not enough to give you a face? "
"What kind of face? It's almost ashamed! Do you think that you make a movie and hug people, like a good girl? By the way, it's called Xu Han. It's your director and you are also filming with you. , What's the matter with you two? How do I hear your brother say that you are a couple on the Internet? You have suffered a loss and don’t know how to repent. Now you have a relationship with a director. Your brother said that the director is a beautiful woman. The star has no innocent relationship..."
Xu Zifan picked up the soup basin on the table and went to the kitchen to serve the soup. Qiao Zixin lowered his head embarrassedly, feeling that these words were all heard by him, and said angrily: "What did you say, mom? You doubt me that way? You believe what Qiao Zhipeng said. , Is he your biological son? Has he called you a mother for so many years? When can you respect your biological daughter and don’t want them to say anything!"
"What are their father and son? That's your dad and your brother!" Mama Joe's brows frowned tightly, "You are getting more and more disobedient. Just like your dad said, you're all mixed up outside. You teach now. Your mother thinks your mother is always confused, isn’t it? You don’t want to think, when your father was gone, how did I live with you as a woman? If it weren’t for your father to take us in, I think you’d starved to death. Know to be grateful, know to respect him."
Qiao Zixin said helplessly: "I didn't disrespect him, but it doesn't mean that I have to let him arrange for my life? He asked me to be a minor clerk. I can't be promoted if I don't have a degree. Can I be a minor clerk for the rest of my life? What's wrong with me now? I give you a family every month, I change a big house for you, and I buy a car for Qiao Zhipeng. Can I afford these if I am a clerk? It is not enough to feed myself."
"You said this again! Didn't you just give the family some money? You have not been with us all these years, and Xiaopeng has taken care of us. Shouldn't you give more subsidies to the family? Besides, you are a sister, not your dad. Naturally, if you don't do much, can these people in your family accept you? If it's OK, just tell me, what is your relationship with that director?"
"Friend, don't worry, I didn't make a boyfriend." Qiao Zixin didn't want to say anything anymore, and after arguing for countless times, he couldn't make any sense.
Mom Qiao thought for a while and said: "You have to come back for the New Year, and relatives will definitely mention you at gatherings. If you don't have a family, you have no family in your heart. It will make me embarrassed."
"Mom, I have a new movie released during the Spring Festival, and I have a job..."
"Don't look for those reasons, anyway, you have to come back. You set the time for yourself, and tell me when you set it. Let's just go ahead. The long distance is very expensive."
Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Qiao Zixin rubbed his forehead and dropped the phone on the table. This has always been the case. Mom Qiao hung up after she said what she wanted to say. She would not care about her or listen to what she was saying. In short, it was the family of three who was reasonable, and she was the only one who was unreasonable. It's because she is a girl, and she is still an oil bottle, not the male owner's birth.
Xu Zifan brought out the soup, served her a small bowl, and said with a smile: "Drink the soup, you make it yourself. You should drink more. I just tasted a few mouthfuls and it was delicious."
Qiao Zixin looked at him and whispered: "Sorry, my mom has that kind of personality. I don't think there are good people in the entertainment circle. It's not against you."
Xu Zifan smiled, "It's okay, when did I care about other people's opinions? It's you, it's hard work, do you want to talk about it?"
Qiao Zixin was startled, lowered her head and picked up the spoon to stir the soup in the bowl unconsciously. After a while, she said, "This kind of thing is very common, I'm not bad. My home is a small town with closed folk customs. I When my father was five years old, he died of illness and there was no money in the family. My mother was a little bit unable to live with me alone. Later, someone introduced her to my current father, who was also widowed, and there was a four-year-old boy in the family. They After I got married, I changed my surname to Joe and lived with them. But the Qiao family favored sons and used me as an oil bottle. All the relatives treated me neither cold nor warm. My mother couldn’t regenerate because of my injury. , I’m doubly good to Qiao Zhipeng and want to raise him into his own son. So every year only Qiao Zhipeng has new clothes to wear and new toys to play with. I can only wear the rest of my relatives and sisters and play with toys that Qiao Zhipeng doesn’t need."
"It just so happened that my study was poor, and no matter how hard I tried, I could only take the middle school exam. They thought I was stupid, and going to school was a waste of time. It's better to find a job to help my family. I have been a clerk for almost a year and saw Qiao Zhipeng take a general college , They set up a banquet for him to celebrate. I was imbalanced in the snacks and didn’t want to live like that again. I came to Yanjing alone. I didn’t expect that I was lucky. When the scout saw me, the first scene would be popular. I I thought I could finally raise my eyebrows, but I didn't expect them to be very opposed. My dad said that I was too embarrassed to talk about love in the movie."
Qiao Zixin laughed, "Actually I have figured it out now. I am very grateful to them for raising me, so I am willing to provide them with pensions. If Qiao Zhipeng's requirements are not excessive, I will also satisfy him. After all, I can't make money from filming. Little, give them those who don’t count as much, just as spending money to buy quiet. But I don’t want to go home. The relatives of Qiao’s family will preach as soon as they see me. They firmly believe that the entertainment industry is a big dye pot, there are no good people, as if Being a star is the same as an improper industry. Everyone has different ideas, and they are not happy to get together. I don’t know why my mother has to ask me to go back this time. Maybe my relatives are talking too much in her ears."
Xu Zifan opened the itinerary in the phone and looked at it, "Then do you want to go back? There are three days before and after the Spring Festival. I will go back on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month and come back on the first day of the lunar month.
Qiao Zixin nodded, "Just these three days, I'll go back early and come back late."
Xu Zifan thought that Qiao Zixin died alone in the original world. She suffered from depression and had no relatives by her side. Presumably her mother had little affection for her in her heart. Just ask Qiao Zixin to go back, he was a little worried, and said: "I will go back with you. Then I will stay in the hotel, and we will go together when I leave. If you have anything to do, go directly to me and don't be wronged."
Qiao Zixin looked at him and couldn't help but smile and said: "I am such a big person, how can I be wronged? But you are here to celebrate the New Year by yourself, so go to my house and see where I grew up. They meet When playing mahjong, I will accompany you out for shopping."
"it is good."
The two agreed on the itinerary, and Qiao Zixin told Mama Qiao, she only said that she would go back, without mentioning Xu Zifan, lest Mama Qiao would scorn her again.
The work related to "Life Is Beautiful" has been busy until the 27th of the twelfth lunar month. After that, Xu Zifan explained the company's affairs properly and returned to his hometown with Qiao Zixin. There is no airport in that small town. They can only fly to a third-tier city nearby and take the train home.
After getting off the bus, Qiao Zixin took him to their best hotel and let Xu Zifan settle down. The room is not big, it is a big bed room, but fortunately it is very clean, with private bathroom, computer and TV. They came by coincidence, they happened to be the last one, and they had to go to other small hotels later.
When Xu Zifan saw Qiao Zixin inspecting the facilities in the house, he smiled and said, "Just stay for two days and it's not fashionable. You go back soon, they may watch the time."
Qiao Zixin nodded, put on a hat, scarf and glasses, wrapped herself tightly, and exhorted: "If you are unfamiliar with the land, don't go to remote places. Tell me where to go."
"Okay, I won't go out, don't worry. But you, remember to call me if you have something to do. I'm open 24 hours a day."
"Yeah." Qiao Zixin smiled crookedly and waved at him out of the door. Every time she goes home, she feels depressed, but this time because of Xu Zifan's company, she feels very relaxed, and she doesn't seem to be so repulsive to hear people talking about going home.
