My husband disappeared after a flash marriage, but I am pregnant with his child

Chapter 186 New Tutor

Deng Qiaoni's eyes were red, and she kept nodding her head, her voice choking with sobs: "Sister Qiao, you are such a kind person. I really don't know how to repay you."

Qiao Qin gently patted Deng Qiaoni's shoulder and said, "Silly child, what's the point of talking about repaying me? I am very satisfied to be able to help you."

Not long after, the driver arrived. Qiao Qin took Deng Qiaoni into the car. Along the way, Deng Qiaoni nervously tugged at the corner of her clothes, her eyes looking out the window from time to time, her heart filled with uneasiness about the unknown. Her feet were tightly together, and her body was slightly curled up.

The car drove to the Huo's Manor very quickly. When the car stopped, Deng Qiaoni saw the magnificent villa through the car window. She was so surprised that she couldn't help but open her mouth and gasp.

The tall and majestic building is like a dream castle. Under the sunshine, the golden roof shines brightly. The outer wall of the villa is made of top-grade marble, smooth and magnificent. The fountain pool at the door is splashing with water, reflecting colorful light under the sun. Walking into the door, the spacious living room is endless, and the gorgeous crystal chandelier hangs down from the ceiling, like a dazzling galaxy. The floor is covered with thick hand-woven carpets, so soft that it makes people feel like they are in the clouds.

On one side of the living room, there was a set of valuable leather sofas. The delicate texture and exquisite workmanship made Deng Qiaoni not even dare to reach out and touch them. On the antique shelf next to it, there were various precious artworks and antiques, each of which was priceless. The huge floor-to-ceiling windows made the whole room transparent and bright. Outside the window was a neatly trimmed garden with colorful flowers competing for splendor.

Deng Qiaoni looked at all this, feeling inferior and terrified. She looked down at her ragged clothes, her patched pants, and her muddy shoes, and felt that she was out of place in this place.

She thought of her home in the countryside, which was a dilapidated adobe house. Whenever it rained, the house became a water curtain cave. The rain poured down like a waterfall through the cracks in the roof. The ground was filled with pots and pans of all sizes, but they still couldn't catch all the rain.

She ran around the house, trying to plug the leaks with worn-out towels and plastic sheets, but it was often in vain. The dirt on the walls fell off in large chunks due to moisture, revealing the bumpy stones inside. The house was filled with a pungent smell of dampness and decay, dark and depressing. The shabby windows were covered with yellowed newspapers, which rustled when the wind blew. The rickety wooden door groaned painfully every time it was opened and closed. The only furniture in the house was a table with missing legs and a few crooked stools that creaked when people sat on them.

Compared with the luxurious villa in front of us, it is like one is in heaven and the other is in hell.

Deng Qiaoni stood at the door, hesitating and not daring to step onto the floor that was so clean that one could see one's reflection. She was afraid that the dust and dirt on her body would dirty this spotless place and bring a stain to it. Her hands tightly grasped the corners of her clothes, and her feet seemed to be dragged heavily by lead blocks.

Qiao Qin saw her hesitation, smiled, stretched out her hand, held Deng Qiaoni's hand, and said, "Don't be afraid, come in quickly."

Deng Qiaoni felt the warmth in Qiao Qin's palm, raised her head, and saw Qiao Qin's sincere and encouraging eyes, and she was moved. She bit her lip, mustered up the courage to follow Qiao Qin into the villa.

Just then, Aunt Song came out. She was wearing a neat apron, with a friendly smile on her face, and she wiped her hands on the apron. Seeing Qiao Qin coming back with a little girl, she asked curiously, "Madam, what is this?"

Qiao Qin briefly told Aunt Song about Deng Qiaoni's experience.

After hearing this, Aunt Song showed a sympathetic look on her face. She walked forward, took Deng Qiaoni's hand, and said, "This child is so pitiful. Madam, don't worry, I will take good care of her."

Deng Qiaoni looked at Aunt Song's friendly appearance, and the uneasiness in her heart was slightly relieved.

Qiao Qin brought Deng Qiaoni to the room prepared for her. The room was warm and comfortable, with pink curtains, a soft bed, and a wardrobe full of new clothes.

"Qiao Ni, you rest here for a while. I'll have someone bring you some delicious food later." Qiao Qin said gently.

Deng Qiaoni nodded gratefully, "Thank you, Sister Qiao."

After Qiao Qin left the room, Deng Qiaoni sat on the edge of the bed, stroking the soft sheets with her hands. She felt a little dreamy. She was living in a hell of suffering yesterday, but now she lived in a big villa that she had never dared to dream of.

Deng Qiaoni pinched her thigh hard and when she felt the severe pain, tears instantly rolled down her eyes. Those were tears of joy.

She swore that she would repay Qiao Qin well in this life.

at the same time.

Huo Siqian just came home from school, his little figure jumping and skipping, his schoolbag bouncing on his back. His bright eyes were full of curiosity and agility, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Deng Qiaoni sitting in the living room.

"Mom, who is this sister?" Huo Siqian tilted his head and asked in a baby voice. His face was red like a ripe apple.

When Deng Qiaoni saw this cute little boy, a gentle smile appeared on her face.

Qiao Qin smiled and touched Huo Siqian's head, saying, "Siqian, this is Sister Qiaoni. She may teach you some knowledge in the future."

Huo Siqian blinked his big eyes, walked up to Deng Qiaoni, and looked her up and down, "Sister, what can you teach me?"

Deng Qiaoni was a little nervous, her hands unconsciously clutching the corners of her clothes, "I can teach you to read, draw, and many other interesting things."

Huo Siqian clapped his hands excitedly after hearing this, "Great! Let's get started now!"

Deng Qiaoni looked at Qiao Qin, who smiled and nodded.

So, Deng Qiaoni took Huo Siqian to the study. She carefully wrote a few simple words on a piece of paper and patiently taught Huo Siqian how to read them.

"Siqian, this word is pronounced 'da'. Look, doesn't it look like a person with arms outstretched?" Deng Qiaoni's voice was soft and sweet.

Huo Siqian frowned and tried hard to identify it, "I think I understand a little bit."

Deng Qiaoni encouraged him with a smile, "Siqian is really smart, look at this word again."

Time passed unnoticed in their study...
