Chapter 1382 - It Is a Pigeon Egg, Right? (1/2)

Qiao Nan touched San Bao’s face. Why was she having a hunch that she had found her three children an extremely capable master grandpa?

Seeing the stupefied expression on his disciple, Lin Yuankang secretly felt very complacent. “Alright, the triplets are still very young. They don’t know how to keep these things. Perhaps they may casually throw them away and we won’t be able to find them thereafter. You’re their mother. Take care of these items on their behalf first. You can return to them after they grow up.” After finis.h.i.+ng his words, Lin Yuankang pushed the pile of cabbage-like diamond accessories to Qiao Nan.

Until now, Lin Yuankang still remembered the serious demeanor of his little disciple when she told him that she would support him financially in his old age.

Snort! Snort!

With the money in his pocket, it was the other way round. He could support his little disciple in her old age!

Qiao Nan’s face contorted. She felt terrible. “Master…” She really did not wish to accept her set of gifts. Judging from the crystal-clear look of these diamonds, they must be extremely costly. She dared not even think of the total value of the entire set. It if was possible, Qiao Nan did not even wish to accept the gifts for the triplets.

“If you know that I am your master, you have to listen to me.” Lin Yuankang’s tone became strict and serious. “It is not good to decline the request from an elder. Have you heard of this saying? You have to remember that I am always your master. I will always support you. You just have to move forward daringly, relax, and do what you want to do.”

Old Master Zhai carried Er Bao onto his thighs and sneered. “Does my granddaughter-in-law need you to support her or give her backing and a.s.surance in whatever she does? Do you treat our Zhai family as dead?” Clearly, Lin Yuankang was not telling these to his granddaughter-in-law but the Zhai family.

Lin Yuankang gave him a sideways glance. “Will one shun having enough a.s.surance? The more backing, the merrier. Also, if the Zhai family is so capable, shouldn’t you give your grandson some backing first? If not for my help, these three pitiful little grand-disciples of mine would have so little time with their father.”

Lin Yuankang had neither son nor daughter in this life. Hence, he also did not have any grandchild.

However, he did not hope that his three favorite grand-disciples would see so little of their father during their childhood. It was as if they did not have a father.

At this point, it was inevitable that Lin Yuankang was a little picky. He felt that Zhai Sheng was a stinky soldier who was not compatible with his little disciple. It was so easy for his little disciple to suffer because of him.

Fortunately, Old Master Zhai had mellowed over the years. If Old Master Zhai was still young when Elder Lin said these, given his explosive temper, he would have dragged Elder Lin outside for a duel. “What do you know? You only need to talk. But the things in the army… When you make one move, it can cause a domino effect. It’s not so simple. As a soldier, one has to put the country’s and citizens’ interests before his own. We can only put personal petty favors and grudges aside. You know nothing about all these principles!”

The one who bore the surname Lin only needed to have catfights with foreigners. If the other party was polite, he would be as well. Otherwise, he would strip the other party naked, not leaving any face.

However, how could one be so direct in the army? One should not harm the nation’s interest because of personal conflict. One had to know that the borders of China had not been very peaceful. Those countries were itching to stir up troubles.

On this point, the only thing that Old Master Zhai was satisfied with Peng Yu was that the latter still had some character of a soldier. He did not bow his head in front of these overarching principles.
