Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 1504: A Born Soldier

“If I have any mistakes, please correct me. Please teach me if my handwriting is bad.”

The word ‘please’ sounded like Er Bao needed a good beating.

“Er Bao, are you asking for it?” Shi Qing grabbed Er Bao by the chest and lifted him as if she was about to toss him away. Instead of fear, all Er Bao had was excitement. “Godmother, higher, higher!” No would lift him after his dad left. Mom said that grandpa was old, so he should be the one playing with grandpa.

The game had its surprise continuation with godmother’s arrival, and that was a wonderful thing to Er Bao.

“Bad boy!” Shi Qing wanted to teach Er Bao a ‘lesson’ as she raised him higher and spun around. She figured she would at least get him dizzy. How dare this boy mock his godmother!

Qiao Nan shook her head. “Put Er Bao down. Shouldn’t you act your age instead of his? You guys must have the same mental age to be able to have such fun.” Er Bao was eight and weighed tens of kilograms.

Qiao Nan was afraid that things could end up unpleasant.

“Godmother, my turn!” San Bao protested. Why was Er Bao the only one in the air? She liked it too!

Shi Qing felt her arms go numb. She wanted to put Er Bao down as well, but whenever she lowered her hands, Er Bao grabbed onto her arms, asking her to carry on.

Er Bao was enough to tire her out, and San Bao would be a torture. Shi Qing had a sudden realization that having children might be harder than military training.

Qiao Nan knew her kids well. Before San Bao could ditch the image of a demure girl and climb onto Shi Qing, Qiao Nan grabbed San Bao to her side. “San Bao, what happened to my demure girl? Do you still want a new dress this year?”

“Yes!” San Bao quickly gave up on the flight. “I want a nice dress, not an ugly one. Mom, will you be making it?” The dresses that her mom made were way prettier than those sold.

“Be a good girl, and I will make one for you.” She sure was committed.

San Bao was satisfied and she tidied up her outfit. “Godmother, go ahead and play with Er Bao. I am a demure girl.”

“...” Shi Qing, who had finally put Er Bao down, was taken aback by the quick change in attitude. She never knew that one could handle a child like this. “Qiao Nan, are all kids so easy to perk up?” If it was true, it seemed like having kids wasn’t so difficult after all.

If a simple dress were enough to settle her goddaughter, she imagined it would be easy to deal with her future daughter.

“Everyone has a tender spot. As long as you can find it, there is nothing difficult.” The key point was to know the kids’ preferences.

Shi Qing’s eyes widened as she nodded. “I see! I got it!”

...

You got it?

Bullsh*t!

She couldn’t spill any vulgarity before the kids, and neither could she embarrass the children’s godmother. Therefore, she kept her words to herself. “The invitation is coming in a few days, so why are you here today?” She was curious.

“I have told Auntie Miao that I’m staying here tonight. I’m not leaving.” Shi Qing’s chortling made Er Bao clench his fists. “Godmother, your laughter is making me uncomfortable.”

Although Er Bao had been spinning in the air for a while, he marched straight to Qiao Nan. Shi Qing ignored his words and asked monotonously, “Er Bao, aren’t you dizzy?” Even Shi Qing tumbled after putting Er Bao down.

It was a good choice to put Er Bao down, or she might fall with him in her hands. It was no wonder that Qiao Nan called her crazy. She was indeed wacky at times.

The question was, how could Er Bao not feel a thing when she was all light-headed?

Er Bao blinked his eyes in confusion as he spun a few rounds on the spot. “Dizzy? Why would I be dizzy? It’s only been a few rounds. Godmother, it seems like your condition is much worse than mine. Let’s spin another hundred rounds to see if I get dizzy.”

“Qiao Nan, Er Bao’s sense of balance seems to be exceptional.” Shi Qing scratched her chin. “Do you and Brother Zhai have any plans for the kids in the future?”

“What do you mean?” She wanted to let the children decide, but it seemed like Shi Qing had other plans.

Shi Qing giggled. “You should give in on this matter. Like father like son, like mother like daughter. You know about Brother Zhai and Sister Zhai Hua better than anyone. I think that more than one of your kids will join the army. Er Bao seems like a perfect airman. It would be cool to fly a plane!”

Speaking of which, there was no airman in the family. She figured that Er Bao had the potential to be the first.

Qiao Nan caught a glimpse of the sparks in Er Bao’s eyes as she knocked Shi Qing in the head. “There is no hurry. Let’s think about that at a later time.” If possible, she wished that none of her children would be a soldier. Brother Zhai was enough. If her entire family were in the army, how was she going to live the rest of her life? They should at least leave her some company!

From the day Qiao Nan met Zhai Sheng, she was ready to be a soldier’s wife. However, when the days actually came, it was harsh to accept.

But there was no regret involved. To this day, Qiao Nan still felt that marrying Zhai Sheng was the best thing that happened to her.
