Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief Novel - Chapter 2220

Chapter 2220: Useless

Your dad isn’t as busy as he had been in my dream and will be home quite often. Perhaps, the three of you will be brought up by him.

If the children had nightmares and started crying, she would let Brother Zhai accompany the children. Yes, that was the plan.

With Zhai Hua’s urging, Jiajia quickly took out her winter vacation homework. It was a thick stack and she fought through it page by page.

Hearing the pen scratches against Jiajia’s paper as she started on her homework conscientiously, the adults lowered their voices significantly. “Now that both of your troubles have returned to Ping Cheng, you can do your two-month-long confinement peacefully.” Zhai Hua couldn’t deny that the children were indeed good-looking. They had inherited all of their parents’ best traits. Their pale-white skin was just like the fresh snow outside.

Snow came with a cold fragrance, but her niece and nephews had a fragrant baby scent.

“Two months? It’s about time for me to go out.” Qiao Nan was rather thankful. She had given birth to the triplets at quite an advanced age in this lifetime. Qiao Nan was not entirely ignorant about the danger and sufferings she had gone through during childbirth. Thankfully, all four of them had come out of that safe and sound. The triplets had probably been well-nourished while they had been in Qiao Nan’s stomach. That was why she had not gained much weight after giving birth to the children, even though she had eaten quite a lot while pregnant. It seemed as though everything she had eaten had gone to nourishing the triplets.

Apart from encountering a little danger during childbirth, Qiao Nan’s situation was normal during her confinement period, and there were no major problems. Perhaps, it was because her in-laws had taken good care of her. Qiao Nan felt that her body had been slightly weak and tired because she had always been busy working in the past. However, all of that fatigue had suddenly disappeared during her confinement period.

Other women felt as though they aged after giving birth. On the other hand, Qiao Nan felt as though she had gotten younger after childbirth. Whether or not it was just an illusion, this had given her the strength to take good care of her children, at the very least. “I’m amazed that you guys don’t mind. I feel as though I’m starting to smell.”

She wasn’t allowed to take a shower or bath during her entire confinement period. It was only behind the backs of the others in the family and after Qiao Nan had begged him for a long while that Zhai Sheng had reluctantly allowed her to wipe herself with a hot towel.

A confinement period might be good for recuperation, but it was psychologically damaging.

“Hahaha…” Zhai Hua could not help but laugh in glee. “I understand. I went through that after giving birth to Jiajia too. That was really… And Jiajia’s grown up in the blink of an eye. Perhaps, it’ll be my turn to take care of Jiajia during her confinement period soon.”

At that time, Mother Wei had not known that the state advocated for only one child in each family. Besides, since Wei De was a soldier, their family wouldn’t be allowed a second child. Even after seeing that Zhai Hua had given birth to a daughter, she had not despaired even though she had not liked it. She had only thought about helping Zhai Hua recuperate well during her confinement period so that she would be able to have another child.

Although Zhai Hua’s relationship with the Zhai family had already deteriorated by that time, Mother Wei had always felt that the Zhai family’s attitudes would soften for the sake of the child and that they would acknowledge the Wei family as their relatives. As such, Zhai Hua had been well taken care of by Mother Wei.

Even so, Zhai Hua was still resentful at the mention of her confinement period. Now that someone else was going through the same suffering while she could sit on and watch by the sidelines, she couldn’t help but rejoice.

“I’m not trying to provoke you, but someone told me that Wang Yang looked for your sister a few days ago. Although I have no idea what they talked about, I guess it’ll definitely have something to do with the inheritance from the Zhu family. How should I put it? I’ve always felt that Wang Yang has never been a good person.”

Zhai Hua had no idea how bad Wang Yang was when she said that. She had no idea just how much Qiao Nan had suffered because of Zhu Baoguo and Chen Jun.

Qiao Nan had chatted with Zhai Sheng before. Everyone fell in love with bast*rds at some point in their lives. Besides, she had been too oppressed and neglected in her own family at that time. At that time, a man with a good background had appeared and had even showered her with the warmth and care that she had always been longing for. That was why she had fallen head over heels for Chen Jun, but even she couldn’t say for sure whether she had truly fallen for Chen Jun, or whether she had pinned her desire for kinship on Chen Jun.

At least, she had felt sad and hurt upon learning that Qiao Zijin had gotten pregnant with Chen Jun’s child and that she had to back off. What she had not felt was despair or depression.

This was, after all, a shameful incident that had occurred while she had still been young and insensible. Even though she had gotten hurt, Qiao Nan did not want many people to know about it after she had gotten married to Zhai Sheng. Since that was Qiao Nan’s wish, Zhai Sheng had naturally not mentioned it to the rest of the Zhai family.

The three children opened their eyes for a moment after having their meal before going back to sleep. Qiao Nan picked the three children up and placed them beside her. After checking that their hands were warm, she turned to answer Zhai Hua’s question. “I already expected that Wang Yang wouldn’t give up the Zhu family’s assets so easily. Wang Yang’s from Ping Cheng as well, and there aren’t many people who don’t know about the issues in my family. It doesn’t surprise me that he looked for Qiao Zijin. The only problem is that I’ll no longer be influenced by the Qiao family. Nothing will change even if he persuades my parents to come, much less Qiao Zijin.”

She had already said that she would much rather donate all of the Zhu family’s assets than let Wang Yang get a single cent. Those who committed mistakes would get their punishments eventually. It was time for Wang Yang to receive his punishment. He had been managing the Zhu family’s assets for such a long time and had seen it grow over time. In the end, none of it had anything to do with him. Wang Yang probably felt as though his heart was being ripped apart.

“That’s true.” Qiao Nan was no longer that gullible ‘child’ who only listened to her parents. It was useless for Wang Yang to approach Qiao Zijin. She had never even appeared on the day of Qiao Nan’s marriage to Zhai Sheng, nor the full-month banquet of the triplets. It was not that Qiao Zijin didn’t want to attend those events, but no one would allow her in.
