1203 Little Gold Ches
"You've been dawdling with Dongzi for almost a year. When is he going to marry you?" Zhai Sheng glanced sideways at Zhai Hua. He was not bothered about Zhai Hua's threat at all.
Zhai Hua was different from him. He married a wife. Zhai Hua was going to be married off.
When Zhai Hua was married to Tian Dong, they would have their own children. It would not be Zhai Hua's turn to intervene in the three babies' affairs then.
"Why must I marry Tian Dong? I am not related to him in any way. Don't talk nonsense. I have considered it thoroughly. I will be twenty-eight years old after the Lunar New Year. No matter what, I must go for matchmaking sessions this year to fight for the chance to be married before the end of the following year, " Zhai Hua said confidently.
She and Tian Dong had always been good friends and not yet lovers.
Zhai Sheng was right in his words. She had been dawdling with Tian Dong for a year. It was time they made themselves clear.
She could not always possibly hold on to Tian Dong while attending matchmaking sessions at the same time.
Zhai Hua could not bring herself to do such a thing.
"Hua Hua, are you serious?" Miao Jing jumped in surprise. When Nan Nan was giving birth, Dongzi had been helping in and out. He had taken on all the duties that should have been done by her son on the account of Hua Hua.
She initially thought that the two children would, at most, take more time to develop but should not go on separate ways. She was surprised that her daughter actually had thoughts to attend many matchmaking sessions to find a marriage partner next year.
Was it because Hua Hua and Dongzi could not be together anymore?
Squeezing San Bao's little fleshy claws, Zhai Hua lowered her voice."I have always been very serious. I am also telling the truth. It's just that all of you have never believed what I said."
If she was not married before twenty-eight years old, she would rather not get married then.
Anyway, Nan Nan had given birth to three children for Zhai Sheng. There were only two of them, husband and wife. How could they possibly take care of the three babies at the same time? She would not feel at ease too if she did not help them keep a watch by the side.
It was better not to be able to find a marriage partner. Like she said before, she would treat her nephews and nieces like her own children. Would she be afraid that no one would support her when she was old and attend her funeral upon her death?𝗳𝗿ℯℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯𝘯oνe𝗹 - 🅽🅽novel
Given the Zhai family's situation and her capability, her days after retirement were not an issue at all. When she was gone, she did not believe that the triplets would not burn incense and candles for their auntie during festive seasons, Tomb-Sweeping Day, and Double Ninth Festival.
Their family's triplets were good kids. She was not worried that no one would take care of her when she was old.
Even such a big worry was no longer a problem. Naturally, Zhai Hua was not bothered or insistent about whether she was going to be married or not.
Zhai Sheng looked at Qiao Nan. He came and left in a hurry last time. Besides spending quality time with Nan Nan, he did not even have time to carry the triplets. Hence, he had no chance to understand the situation between Zhai Hua and Tian Dong at all.
It had almost been a year. Tian Dong was so meek and had not conquered Zhai Hua?
Meeting Zhai Sheng's eyes, Qiao Nan shrugged her shoulders helplessly. She did not know anything.
Before September, she only had two tasks every day. First, read. Second, eat a lot of things and nourish the babies in her womb well.
When the babies were born, she only had two tasks every day. First, study. Second, become milk bottles for the triplets.
As such, her hands were always tied. She was not aware of the progress between Sister Zhai Hua and Tian Dong at all.
After the triplets were born, she seemed to have seen Tian Dong during their full-month celebration and received Tian Dong's presents. Thereafter, Tian Dong did not seem to have appeared again.
This was the complete opposite of Tian Dong's attitude when she was pregnant. Back then, he had been finding various excuses to stay behind in the house of the Zhai family to have meals.
It was the baby brain effect. One pregnancy could result in cognitive impairment for three years.
If it had been the normal Qiao Nan, she would have long enquired Zhai Hua about her situation with Tian Dong.
Tian Dong did not turn up at the house of the Zhai family all of a sudden. He did not even notify them. Did it mean that he and Zhai Hua were not suitable and they had called it off?
Unfortunately, since the triplets were born, Qiao Nan's mind had been occupied by them and her studies. It was hard for her to pay attention to Zhai Hua's situation.
But then again, what did Tian Dong mean with this attitude? It was not going to work between Sister Zhai Hua and him?
Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng could not figure out why Zhai Hua, who was one of the main parties concerned, was not willing to provide a clear explanation to everyone. She had to let everyone guess. All of a sudden, Zhai Hua and Tian Dong's matter seemed to have come to a standstill. It was not going anywhere, making everyone upset.
Miao Jing, who was carrying Er Bao, felt disheartened."Er Bao, when you grow up, don't learn from your auntie. Grandma won't expect too much. After you go to school, focus on your studies. No puppy love but also don't date only when you're too old. Study when you need to. After graduation, quickly marry a granddaughter-in-law back for grandma and give birth to a great-grandchild for grandma to carry."
Miao Jing was not pinning much hope on Zhai Hua, this daughter, anymore.
Fortunately, there were three children at home. As long as Hua Hua was happy and would not regret this decision when she was old and lonely, she would not intervene in what kind of life Hua Hua wished for.
However, if possible, she still hoped that Hua Hua could find someone true to her to spend the rest of her life with.
Er Bao was gnawing his little claws and drooling so badly that he wetted his collars.
As for his grandmother's words, Er Bao opened his clear and puzzled eyes to express that he did not understand any of them.
Zhai Sheng was back early and everyone could spend the Lunar New Year together. Of course, the old master and Zhai Yaohui were happy. Compared to the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Chinese valued the Spring Festival more.
When it was night time, Qiao Nan lay on the bed. The triplets, who had eaten and drunk to their fill, spread their limbs open, placed their hands behind the little brains in a surrendering position, and slept peacefully.
Looking at the adorable sight of them, Qiao Nan smiled. She then took out a bank passbook and looked at the changes in the numbers recently. She talked to Zhai Sheng about it when he came out from a shower.
This bank passbook was given to Qiao Nan by Zhai Sheng.
Zhai Sheng was smart and mature. Since he was a student, he had channels of stable earnings. After becoming a soldier, his earnings increased further.
It was not really because Miao Jing and Zhai Yaohui were open-minded parents who were willing to let their children keep their own earnings.
At that time, Miao Jing was too focused on Zhai Yaohui, and the husband and wife were like circus troupe without a definite place of residence.
If the two children were to hand over their salary to their parents, Miao Jing would have to return from outside to take the money, rush to the bank, open bank accounts for them, and deposit the money.
To Miao Jing, who was obsessed with loving her husband at that time, it was too cumbersome.
Hence, Miao Jing might as well openly inform the two children that once they were capable of earning their own keep, under the condition of self-discipline, they should take care of their own salary properly. As parents, they would not intervene at all.
So many years had passed. Both Zhai Hua and Zhai Sheng had their own little gold chest, and the sum of money in it was not small.
