Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 2450: Being Calculative (3)

Zhai Hua sniffled and slapped herself a few times. The situation seemed a little incredulous, but at the very least, she had grown up healthily under such bizarre circumstances.

But Zhai Hua no longer wanted to think about her childhood. Seeing how Er Bao and San Bao treated Zhai Sheng in this manner in front of Qiao Nan, Zhai Hua was gleeful.

How could her nephews and niece be so clever? They dared to defy their own father! They were indeed exceptionally bold!

Thinking about that, Zhai Hua moved her gaze down to the chubby tummies of the three children. If they weren’t fat, who else was?

Hearing the children complaining about what a failure Zhai Sheng was as a father in their adorable voices, Qiao Nan fell into heaps of laughter.

She comforted the three children with a hug. “You can’t blame your dad. He didn’t know how to do this in the past. He only learned it to take care of you. Don’t you learn slowly every time you play with a new toy too? You have to give your dad some time and more opportunities. He’ll get better with practice.”

Qiao Nan wasn’t even ashamed of giving Zhai Sheng full marks as a father.

Qiao Nan knew that there were many other men who regarded themselves as emperors at home, refusing to take care of their children or help around the house after work.

Qiao Nan had heard too many such examples that she felt that Zhai Sheng was an amazing husband.

It wasn’t just Er Bao and San Bao. Even Da Bao had crinkled up his nose in disdain.

All he could say was that Qiao Nan and Miao Jing were too good at this. Because they had been so well-taken care of by their mom and grandma, it was difficult to accept such clumsy care from their father.

“Give me a smile. Mom’s done with her work. From today, both Mom and your dad will be able to take care of you guys together. Tomorrow, Sister Jiajia is on vacation. Shall we get her to play with you guys too?”

After a week, Qiao Nan was pretty much done with her itinerary in Ping Cheng.

If not for Jiajia to play with the three children, Qiao Nan would have returned to the capital with Zhai Sheng the next day because she knew that the elderly couple probably missed the children very much.

San Bao rubbed her face against her mother’s neck. She was upset. Why did her dad still have to take care of her? Even though Sister Jiajia would play with her tomorrow, she was still upset. She needed hugs and kisses to make up for that.

San Bao was a young lady, and coquetry was only normal. Qiao Nan carried San Bao in her arms and coaxed her until she finally let out a smile.

After appeasing San Bao, Qiao Nan took a shower and was exhausted. “Are the children asleep?”

“Yes.” Having covered the children with their blankets, Zhai Sheng brought over a towel and wiped Qiao Nan’s hair dry. “Are you done with everything?”

“Almost.”

Zhai Sheng knew very well what Qiao Nan had been busy with. Zhai Sheng had been used to working on the front line, but this time, Zhai Sheng had taken a back seat and supported Qiao Nan from the sidelines instead.

In this whole world, only Qiao Nan had the ability to make Zhai Sheng willingly be her support.

Having wiped Qiao Nan’s hair dry, Zhai Sheng moved his palm to Qiao Nan’s waist. “You’ve lost weight.” Her waist was terribly slender and Zhai Sheng was dissatisfied. “No wonder you can’t even carry the children. Given the way they eat, it won’t take a few years before they weigh more than you.”

Qiao Nan smiled proudly. “What do you know? I’m a mother, but I still have the figure of a young lady. Don’t you know that there are plenty of women who try their best to maintain their weight but are still fat? I haven’t even been dieting. It can’t be helped that I don’t get fat. Besides, I was a little overworked recently. Once I return to the capital, I’ll eat more and sleep more. Why don’t you guess how much weight I’ll put on?”

Zhai Sheng could not help but laugh at Qiao Nan’s description. “Are you trying to live like a pig? Besides, you’d better not make promises you can’t keep. Otherwise, the children might learn from you and make false promises.”

Who else without a job would be as busy as Nan Nan, who could not even take care of her husband and children?

His Nan Nan was even busier than an average office worker.

The couple had been married for almost four years. Zhai Sheng understood that Qiao Nan was one who would never let herself have too much free time, even though she was a full-time housewife.

Leaning in Zhai Sheng’s embrace, Qiao Nan laughed guiltily. She only dared to act so boldly because Zhai Sheng pampered her.

She knew that Zhai Sheng would never stand in her way and would even silently support her. Because her husband gave her so much confidence, Qiao Nan had no fear. Who else could act in this manner?

“Brother Zhai, why are you so good? Why am I living such a blissful life after marrying you? I’m thankful that I didn’t marry until the age of forty. Think about how much I would have lost if I hadn’t persisted.”

Sometimes, Qiao Nan didn’t even believe that she might very well have spent her life with someone else if not for Qiao Zijin, who had destroyed her relationship.

Sigh. A life like that was frightening.

Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi had intended to hurt her, but she had gotten true blissfulness instead. This was such a beautiful life.

“Brother Zhai, there’s something I think I should discuss with you.”

“What is it?” As long as Nan Nan was willing to tell him about it, he would listen.

“It’s about Ding Jiayi. I think Ding Jiayi will eventually go crazy staying in the quad.” Thinking about Ding Jiayi’s state when she had met her a few days earlier, Qiao Nan said realistically, “I think it’s because of my influence that no one in the quad has a good impression of Ding Jiayi anymore. It’s common for women to experience hormonal changes when they undergo menopause. Although she has already passed that age, it won’t be surprising for a normal person to go crazy living in that environment.”

People were not lone wolves. No one could stand living alone without any interaction with others.

Ding Jiayi’s temper was not good to begin with, and her mental health wasn’t all that good either.

As such, no one could tell how Ding Jiayi would turn out if Ding Jiayi didn’t move to a more normal and humane living environment.

While in the mountains, Qiao Nan had already let go of all the grudges she held against Ding Jiayi. She was no longer going to be calculative or hold it against Ding Jiayi.
