Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief-Chapter 2479: Wedding Things (2)
Chapter 2479: Wedding Things (2)
“If you still insist on having someone carry you, I won’t bring you out in the future.”
She couldn’t indulge them in this habit all the time.
The three children hadn’t even started to play, and yet, they were already getting lazy and wanted others to carry them. Once they got tired, they would ask to be carried too.
Of course, neither Jiajia nor Chen Feng would reject them. But she was the one taking care of the children most of the time. In order to lessen her own burden, she wouldn’t allow the children to be carried while they were still able to walk.
Er Bao and San Bao pouted, not daring to kick up a fuss.
They knew that their mom would be true to her words. If they went on with their antics, their mom would surely not bring them out to play in the future.
Because something like that had happened before.
It was exactly because they had suffered and learned their lessons that they knew that Qiao Nan was not joking. No matter how much they screamed and cried, Qiao Nan would never soften her heart. She would follow through with her words.
For their own benefits, the three children dared not make any more noise. They would simply do as their mom said.
“Auntie, they’re so obedient.” Chen Feng was stunned when he saw that the three children stopped messing around after Qiao Nan said only one sentence to them. They held each other’s hands and stopped running around.
Were all children as obedient as his younger siblings?
He remembered that he wasn’t as well-behaved as a child.
“Alright, let’s go. Let’s bring them to the carousel first. Then, we can each take one of them and head over to the bumper cars.”
Qiao Nan didn’t give any further explanation. After all, every child was different, and so were every parent’s methods of raising their children. Qiao Nan didn’t want to give a generalized answer to Chen Feng just because of the triplet’s behavior.
“Humph! It’s all your fault that my younger siblings angered my auntie.”
When Qiao Nan took the children and walked slightly away, Jiajia walked over to Chen Feng and criticized him. “They’re still young and don’t know what’s right or wrong. You can’t always blindly coax them. You’ll lead them astray. If you don’t know how to be an elder brother, you’d better just stand by the side and observe how I behave as an elder sister.”
Her younger siblings lived in fear of her aunt. No one dared to go against her aunt.
Even up until now, Jiajia couldn’t understand why her siblings were so afraid of her aunt and why they were so obedient to her aunt.
Her aunt was clearly the most reasonable and kindest person she had ever met. Her mom couldn’t even compare to her aunt.
Chen Feng, who had been criticized by Jiajia, didn’t dare to rebuke her and guiltily stroked his nose. “What did I do wrong?” He didn’t even realize that he had gotten his younger siblings in trouble.
“Auntie doesn’t like them being too pampered. If one of them wants to be carried, then all three of them will want to be carried. Usually, she takes care of the three of them alone. If you inculcate this bad habit now, what would she do when you’re not around?”
Jiajia had spent much more time around Qiao Nan than Chen Feng, so she could guess what Qiao Nan was worried about.
Chen Feng felt remorseful. “Thank you for telling me, Sister Jiajia. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t have known where I went wrong. Thank you!”
When they had first met, Jiajia had already been fierce and unfriendly toward him.
But what he remembered was Jiajia being willing to let him know of his mistakes so that he could correct them before his younger siblings made a habit of it and burdened his aunt in the future.
Because of that, Chen Feng was especially sincere when thanking Jiajia. When he smiled, his handsome face looked simple and honest, angering Jiajia.
“Why are you smiling? Are you trying to show off your sparkling teeth? Hurry and catch up. We can take care of one each today. We don’t have to fight with each other.” Jiajia lightly kicked Chen Feng in the leg before jogging over to Qiao Nan’s side to buy tickets for the carousel.
Seeing how Chen Feng was still foolishly standing there, Jiajia couldn’t help but wave him over.
Chen Feng let out a wide smile and ran toward Jiajia and his younger siblings. That was a smile Jiajia remembered clearly even years later.
“You’re back?” In the blink of an eye, another five years had passed, and the triplets had grown from little pumpkins into young adults. In another two years’ time, they would graduate from primary school.
After Qiao Nan returned, Zhai Sheng helped massage Qiao Nan’s shoulders so that she wouldn’t feel so tense. “Didn’t I say that I could accompany you if you can’t handle it on your own?”
Qiao Nan was already a fifty-year-old woman, and her strength had indeed deteriorated. “Forget it. It’s not like I have a choice since everything is happening together. Oh right, how are the children?”
Even adults couldn’t stand consecutive blows, let alone the young and emotional triplets.
No matter how good Zhai Yaohui’s and Miao Jing’s mentalities were, they couldn’t change the facts of nature. But what shocked everyone was how her father-in-law, Zhai Yaohui, had passed on even earlier than Miao Jing.
When Zhai Yaohui had passed away, Miao Jing hadn’t even shed a single tear. It was the three children who sobbed their eyes out.
Perhaps, Zhai Yaohui had said something to the three children before his death. That was why they surrounded her and constantly said, “Grandma, don’t be said. We’ll spend more time with you in the future. Don’t cry. We’ll cry on your behalf.”
Miao Jing hadn’t been in good health to begin with and couldn’t withstand such drastic changes in her emotions. As such, the three children tried to spend as much time as possible with her to comfort her.
Although Miao Jing had not cried, everyone could imagine Miao Jing’s sadness in her heart. After all, her life partner had left her.
After Zhai Yaohui’s funeral, everyone in the Zhai family seemed to have lost weight. Even the triplets, who had never been able to lose their baby fats, seemed to have gotten much slimmer after the funeral.
Not only had they lost weight, but Miao Jing had even started to fall ill more easily. After Zhai Yaohui left, Miao Jing seemed to have lost all will and spirit. Even when she saw her most beloved grandchildren, Miao Jing could no longer lift her spirits.
Because of that, Zhai Hua was in a panic and tried to think of several different ways of raising her spirits, almost recalling Jiajia, who had been abroad on exchange.
Because she had been overseas, Jiajia hadn’t been able to attend Zhai Yaohui’s funeral.
If Miao Jing couldn’t hold on any longer, Zhai Hua was afraid that Jiajia would miss both her grandparents’ funerals. She would blame herself for her whole life for that!
