Chapter 1213 - Nasty Temper (1/2)

Qiao Nan did not know what it would be like to study at the military school. Zhai Sheng only briefly told her about it. Qiao Nan was very agitated to have news of s.h.i.+ Qing.

Qiao Nan patted San Bao’s chubby hands and smiled. “San Bao, your G.o.dmother is back. She has not been to see you since you were born. Should we give her some punishment?”

Qiao Nan, who was a first-time mother, did not know that being a mother was equivalent to striking it rich.

On the day that she gave birth to triplets in the hospital, her in-laws gave a red packet to her.

The old master said that although there was no longer the custom of holding a bathing ceremony for the babies on the third day since they were born, he must still give each of them a red packet as a blessing. Therefore, Qiao Nan received three packets from the old master on behalf of the triplets. Thereafter, there was the one-month-old celebration as well as the hundredth-day celebration.

The Zhai family had many relatives. As a result, the triplets received many red packets from them.

Zhu Chengqi and Lin Yuankang were especially generous with the triplets. They gave the triplets red packets and each packet had a larger amount of money than the previous. It was as if they were bent on spending all their fortune on the triplets.

Since Zhu Chengqi was so generous with the triplets, Qiao Nan wondered whether he would have the money for the bride price when Zhu Baoguo married s.h.i.+ Qing in the future. Qiao Nan was kind enough to feel that she should return some money to Zhu Baoguo.

However, now that she knew s.h.i.+ Qing was back, she had to vent her pent-up frustrations. She must get s.h.i.+ Qing to prepare red packets for the triplets to compensate for hurting the triplets’ feelings.

“Owww.” San Bao could not understand what her mama was talking about. She noticed that her mama was smiling. Since she was smiling, it meant that she was happy. Therefore, San Bao curled the corners of her lips and laughed along with Qiao Nan.

Her laughter seemed to be contagious, or perhaps there was a b.u.t.ton on San Bao’s body. As soon as she laughed, Da Bao and Er Bao began laughing as well. The house was filled with Qiao Nan’s and the triplets’ laughter.

Qiao Nan smiled daintily like a lady while there was the unique smell of milk in the triplets’ smiles. The house was full of laughter. This winter, the Zhai family’s residence felt particularly warm.

The triplets just came back from the hospital and they must be thirsty. Miao Jing and the auntie filled the milk bottles with warm water for them to quench their thirst.

Seeing that Qiao Nan and the triplets were laughing happily, despite not knowing what they were laughing about, Miao Jing broke into laughter as well. Qiao Nan took the milk bottle from her and carried San Bao without a word.

San Bao, who recognized the milk bottle, stopped smiling. She clasped her hands over the milk bottle and began drinking the water.

The triplets were thirsty after making the trip outside and laughing along with their mother.

Miao Jing filled one-third of the milk bottle with water. The triplets finished them in no time.

Miao Jing’s heart ached. “We are too inexperienced. When the triplets go out next time, we must bring the milk bottles along. We must remember to bring six milk bottles. Three bottles will be filled with milk while three bottles will be filled with water.” The triplets must not go thirsty.

Zhai Sheng, who held Er Bao in his arms, frowned. “Mom, they are not that delicate.” In Zhai Sheng’s opinions, if they brought six milk bottles whenever they went out, it was as if they were into the business of selling milk bottles.

Qiao Nan made San Bao stand upright after she finished her water. She could tell what was on Zhai Sheng’s mind. “Do you know how people looked at us when we visited the supermarket that sells mother and infant products? The outsiders already felt that we must be selling milk bottles. You should count the number of milk bottles that we have at home.”
