Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 2440: Kiss Back (2)

Even their formidable parents were breathing hard and sweating a lot.

Upon looking at the dark house that wasn’t as clean as their family’s, San Bao hugged Qiao Nan’s thigh, feeling uncomfortable. She refused to let go. “Mom, it’s dark. San Bao’s afraid…”

To be honest, she had really led a good life. Initially, Qiao Nan couldn’t adapt either, let alone the three children.

Even if she wasn’t married and had to rent a house outside, no matter how poor her conditions were, she didn’t need to live in a mud house. Not much cement was used, let alone limestone.

Upon looking at such a house, Qiao Nan secretly felt that it was tough. If she didn’t guess wrongly, they would have to stay under such conditions for two to three nights.

“Don’t be afraid.” As a mother, Qiao Nan naturally had to comfort the three children. “Dad and Mom will accompany you to sleep these few days. With us around, San Bao doesn’t have to be afraid no matter how dark it gets.”

“Yes.” Upon hearing that they could still sleep with their parents, the three children’s nervous faces relaxed slightly.

Qiao Nan looked at Zhai Sheng. “Brother Zhai, I remember you brought a flashlight, right? Is there enough battery?”

Qiao Nan more or less looked like she could neither laugh nor cry. There was electricity in this mountainous area. However, she heard that it would be cut off at times, especially in the dark.

San Bao was afraid of the dark. If she woke up, it was very necessary to have a flashlight shining.

“Yes, this isn’t an issue.” Upon hearing about the mountainous environment, Zhai Sheng prepared all the tools for illumination. He had more experience than Qiao Nan. As such, he had prepared everything. Qiao Nan didn’t need to worry about it.

After getting an affirmative answer, Qiao Nan heaved a sigh of relief. When they were at home, she felt that she had the ability to take care of the three children.

However, after stepping out of the house, she couldn’t do without Zhai Sheng’s help if they wanted to take care of the three children well.

It was also at this time that Qiao Nan realized that although Zhai Sheng usually didn’t talk much, he had really helped her a lot. It was really her biggest blessing to be married to such a good man. It was also the three children’s blessing.

There was no choice. After encountering a father like Qiao Dongliang, Qiao Nan, as a mother who loved children, naturally placed importance on the right kind of father for her children.

She didn’t want to be Ding Jiayi. She naturally also didn’t want her other half to be a man like Qiao Dongliang.

Thankfully, she indeed didn’t become the second Ding Jiayi. Zhai Sheng and Qiao Dongliang were people from two different worlds as well. Such a life was really happy.

If it was said that she had to wait until she was forty years old before she met Zhai Sheng and that she had to pay such a long-term price for her blissful late marriage, Qiao Nan expressed that she didn’t suffer a loss for marrying only when she was forty years old. Instead, she and her three children had earned.

Meeting Zhai Sheng was her biggest blessing in this lifetime.

This blessing could make up for all the unequal treatment she had suffered in her previous life.

As she thought about this, Qiao Nan felt her heart became relaxed. Even when she thought about Ding Jiayi again, she no longer had that anger and injustice she felt before.

She obviously knew what Ding Jiayi was up to. She insisted to be at odds with her and wasn’t willing for Ding Jiayi to lead a good life.

To be honest, Ding Jiayi’s current situation was no different from being forsaken.

She had two daughters and a husband. None of them was close to Ding Jiayi.

Even if Qiao Nan had let bygones be bygones and wasn’t willing to dwell in the past, and she only wanted to lead her life well and groom the three children, she wasn’t prepared to influence Qiao Zijin and Qiao Dongliang about their attitudes toward Ding Jiayi.

She could control her own thoughts and actions, but not others.

Everything was caused by Ding Jiayi herself. No one could help her take responsibility for her life.

After letting bygones be bygones, what Ding Jiayi’s life was in the future depended on how much virtue she had accumulated.

“What happened?”

Upon feeling that Qiao Nan had changed, Zhai Sheng walked over. “Are you not used to it? If you aren’t used to it, it would be enough for us to grasp the situation today and tomorrow. When night falls, we can head out.”

Zhai Sheng was a soldier. No matter how bad the environment was, Zhai Sheng had lived in it before.

Zhai Sheng had adapted well by himself. However, he was extremely nervous about his wife and children. He didn’t make unreasonable demands like wanting them to adapt to this kind of environment as well as he did.

Without mentioning his wife, Zhai Sheng’s thoughts about his children were that as long as they didn’t go astray and become good-for-nothings, it was good enough. They should be upright, kind, and fight hard for everything.

Zhai Sheng never had the thought of wanting his children to suffer to prove how good they were.

If not for Qiao Nan’s request, Zhai Sheng wouldn’t have brought his wife and children to a place with such a poor environment, causing the four people he loved most to suffer.

He didn’t want his children to grow astray and be corrupted by material life. However, there wasn’t a need to use such an extreme method and send his children to such an environment to endure hardship.

To be honest, if he wanted to train his children to be good, he could just throw them into the army. No matter how bad the child was, they could still be taken care of and wouldn’t dare to create much trouble in the future.

At this moment, he felt that his wife wasn’t adapting well. However, the road to go down the mountain wasn’t easy. The light conditions were worse now, making it more difficult to go down the mountain.

If they couldn’t stay here tonight, Zhai Sheng felt he could send his wife and children down the mountain.

“No.” As she lay in Zhai Sheng’s arms, Qiao Nan laughed. “I just feel that the triplets are really blessed to have a good father like you. Thankfully, the father I found for them is you.”

As he hugged Qiao Nan, Zhai Sheng smiled. “Yes, you have great taste. You found me to be their father. You couldn’t do this alone.” Zhai Sheng felt that he fully deserved the praise and didn’t plan to be humble.

What problem was there for him to dote on his own wife and children?

“In your next lifetime, regardless of in your dream or outside your dream, don’t rush to get married. You have to wait for me. I feel that I won’t be in a hurry as well and will always be waiting for you.”

Even if he and Qiu Chenxi were married before, that marriage was just a formality. It wasn’t an official marriage.

The person he was always waiting for was still Nan Nan. It wouldn’t be someone else.

Qiao Nan smiled even more brightly. “Yes.”

She would wait. She would continue waiting until Zhai Sheng’s appearance. Only then would she dare to hand her life into this man’s hands. If it were someone else, she wouldn’t have the courage and guts.
