章 2234: Different Expectations

At first, Ding Jiayi promised to prepare a delicious meal for the family if Qiao Zijin and Qiao Dongliang would visit Ping Cheng for the New Year. On New Year's Eve, Qiao Dongliang would certainly find his favorite dishes on the dining table. However, it wasn't quite the same with Qiao Zijin.

Qiao Zijin would find her favorite dishes in the past few years, but this time, there were only a few likable dishes scattered around the table.

There was nothing expensive like seafood, and Ding Jiayi only cooked up the most basic ingredients. Qiao Zijin thought to herself that it was the worst New Year dinner ever.

Her mom would prepare better dishes even when they were poor. Qiao Nan definitely handed her father cash as a New Year gift, so why didn't Ding Jiayi spend it all? Qiao Nan would pass more money to her if they ran out of cash anyway! Did she think that saving up on food could sugarcoat herself as a likable mother? How foolish!
