Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief Novel - Chapter 1920

Chapter 1920: It Didn’t Feel Good

Twenty years had passed and Zhai Sheng was now a sly old fox! Over the years, Zhai Sheng had never left the army and the days he spent were not in vain. He had won this psychological battle beautifully. If the person who had lost so badly wasn’t herself, Zhai Hua would have given Zhai Sheng a thumbs-up. The problem was that the person who lost was herself. As such, all Zhai Hua wanted to do was pull Zhai Sheng to a corner where there wasn’t anyone else and have a good fight with him, just like what she did before getting married!

Miao Jing was immersed in the guilt that she could only care about her son and not her daughter. As such, she didn’t sense the tension between Zhai Hua and Zhai Sheng. As the father of these two foxes, Zhai Yaohui was not so easy to lie to. He felt that the atmosphere between the siblings was different and guessed that they had fought again because of the Qingshui Town matter.

Before Zhai Hua got married, the siblings often fought like this. Similarly, before Wei De’s appearance, Zhai Yaohui always thought that them fighting among themselves was harmless and their relationship would only improve. However, after Wei De’s appearance, Zhai Hua said that she felt her parents were being partial to Zhai Sheng.

It was precisely because of Zhai Hua’s accusation that Miao Jing self-reflected for a long period of time. She wondered if she was really such a silent onlooker that she had accidentally hurt her daughter, Zhai Hua. However, Zhai Yaohui never wavered. It wasn’t that there was something wrong with the way they got along with each other. It was just that the person next to his daughter was a big issue.

After deciding that they would stay behind, Zhai Yaohui mentioned something practical. “Zhai Sheng, Qiao Nan is forty this year. We’re not hoping for you to get married as soon as possible because we see Qiao Nan as a tool to give birth. However, you should be able to tell that during this period of time recently, Qiao Nan likes Jiajia a lot. Qiao Nan didn’t have a chance to be a mother before. This doesn’t mean that she doesn’t want to be a mother at her age even though she’s not married. A woman in her forties faces a higher risk in pregnancy. If you continue to be this slow, your mom and I won’t be so anxious, but the ones in pain would be you and Qiao Nan. Do you understand?”

This was already the second time Zhai Yaohui emphasized that Qiao Nan would face higher risks if she were to get pregnant. After getting along with each other for a period of time, Zhai Yaohui could tell that Qiao Nan liked children a lot and desired to be a mother.

As Qiao Nan got older, the problem of children would cast a shadow on their lives after marriage, regardless if Qiao Nan could give birth in the end, if she could get pregnant but not give birth, or if it would cause great harm to Qiao Nan’s body.

It made sense to give birth while young.

This time, Zhai Sheng didn’t refute, let alone say that he knew it clearly in his heart. Instead, he showed a look of deep thought. His family was testing Qiao Nan’s attitude toward children. However, Qiao Nan was so immersed in her love for children that she kept complimenting that they were good-looking or cute and didn’t sense that there was another meaning to this.

Zhai Sheng only wanted to marry Qiao Nan. Regarding children, they would follow fate. However, if Qiao Nan was obsessed with children, Zhai Sheng felt that he had to consider the issue of age and timing indeed. “Start preparing with Mom. I’ll marry Nan Nan in three months’ time.”

“!” Upon hearing that Zhai Sheng had decided alone that he would be marrying Qiao Nan in three month’s time, Zhai Hua, who was drinking tea, was so shocked that she nearly spat out the tea in her mouth. She was only short of creating a rainbow effect. “You… say it again. Cough, cough…”

“Sure. Your mom and I will take care of everything. Three months later, right? Then, it’s about time your mom and I write the wedding invitations.” Zhai Yaohui was unlike his wife and daughter, who looked like they were in disbelief. Since his son dared to make this remark, he’d better show it to him. Otherwise, he would break Zhai Sheng’s legs even if he was the chief!

Miao Jing’s reaction was the same as Zhai Hua’s. She choked on her own tea. “Old Zhai, Zhai Sheng is fooling around, but why are you doing the same? You’re already a grandfather!” Marriage was such a big matter. Zhai Sheng couldn’t just decide it on his own. Upon thinking that Qiao Nan wasn’t even Zhai Sheng’s girlfriend yet, but her son dared to say that he would be marrying her in three months’ time, Miao Jing wanted to give Zhai Sheng a beating. He shouldn’t say words that could make people overjoyed for nothing, alright?!

“Wedding invitation? Who’s holding a wedding?” Jiajia returned after school with a fresh look. One could tell that after she went to her desired school, Jiajia adapted well to the new school life.

Zhai Hua took her daughter’s schoolbag from her. “Our family is. Your uncle said that he’s marrying your Auntie Qiao in three months’ time. Are you happy?” Zhai Sheng had boasted this himself. If he dared to make her daughter happy for nothing, she was going to fight Zhai Sheng.

Jiajia jumped in excitement. “Is this true? Uncle, since when did you become so powerful? The next time I see Auntie Qiao, can I start calling her aunt instead?” It wasn’t a must that she could address her as aunt only when the two of them got married. She hoped that she could call her aunt sooner.

“The next time you see her.” Without waiting for Zhai Sheng’s answer, Zhai Hua provided her daughter this answer on behalf of him. If they were holding the wedding banquet three months later, how could they not allow Jiajia to call her aunt the next time she saw her? Anyway, if Jiajia couldn’t address her as aunt, she was going to play with Zhai Sheng to his death. Who asked him to brag when he was incapable?

Zhai Sheng glanced at Zhai Hua and replied with a ‘yes’ plainly.

Jiajia formed an O with her mouth and quietly moved to Miao Jing’s side. “Grandma, why does it feel that there’s a strong smell of explosives between my mom and uncle?”

When she was at her father’s house, regardless of how unreasonable her grandma was, her mom would only stare at her but not throw a temper. However, ever since they returned to her maternal grandma’s house, even though her mom’s face didn’t have such an angry expression, she could obviously feel that her mom’s temper became worse. She always thought that her mom was a traditional Chinese woman who liked to be a good wife and mother.

It was only after returning to her maternal grandma’s house did Jiajia realize that there was such a side to her mother.

Miao Jing smiled and said, “I’m used to seeing this. Before your mom was married, she had such a bad temper. She was often like this with your uncle. Back then, your mom was still in the army. When there was any disagreement between them, they would go straight to the yard to fight it out without another word. They always had fierce fights…”

It was a pity that such a beautiful sight seemed too far away from the Zhai family.

Upon hearing this, Zhai Hua didn’t feel good in her heart. Before marrying, she really didn’t think of how well she was treated in this family. Now that she was a mother herself, Zhai Hua understood how carefree she was back in the Zhai family when she was still a daughter. For a scumbag like Wei De, she had given up the army that she was most passionate about and the career she liked the most.
