Chapter 1438 - Stirring Up Trouble? Not Afraid! (2/2)
The moment Qiao Zijin’s hand was taken by Zhou Zheng, Qiao Dongliang had the feeling of a huge burden being lifted off from his shoulders. He could finally straighten his heavily saddled waist.
Zijin was now married. In the future, he did not need to take this daughter in hand anymore. Whether her marriage life was good or bad would all depend on Zijin herself. If she did not have a good life, she was also the cause of the problem. He could not even take in hand the three women of his family, so how could he reach out to other people’s family?
“Mom?” Click! As soon as the door was opened, the sharp-eared San Bao ran in the direction of the door.
“San Bao, look. Who am I?” Qiao Dongliang was quicker than Qiao Nan in showing his face, making San Bao laugh.
Pleasantly surprised, San Bao called, “Maternal grandpa!”
After two days of companions.h.i.+p, besides San Bao, all the three children’s bond with Qiao Dongliang, this maternal grandfather, had deepened tremendously. At this moment, when they saw Qiao Dongliang appear, the triplets were elated. San Bao waved her hand. “Maternal grandpa, come and catch San Bao!”
“Ooo-ah! The big tiger is going to eat the little rabbit.” Qiao Dongliang yelled, made his hands look like claws, and dashed toward San Bao. Da Bao and Er Bao also laughed and ran, shouting, “The big tiger can’t catch us! The big tiger can’t catch us!”
Someone was playing with the three children. Qiao Nan and Miao Jing had nothing to do then. Miao Jing looked at Qiao Nan. “How was it? Nothing happened, right?”
“Even if there was, it’s not something major. I could handle it. It has been so many years. I am already used to it. Qiao Zijin is not capable of coming up with new or formidable tricks.” She was not controlled by Ding Jiayi anymore, and Ding Jiayi was no longer that old gun in Qiao Zijin’s hands. After losing these two great a.s.sistants, Qiao Zijin could not stir up any waves in front of her.
Miao Jing nodded understandingly. In that case, Qiao Zijin had really schemed against Nan Nan again on the day of her wedding. Unfortunately, the outcome was to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice used to lure it. She was so miserable. She had to feel upset even when she was a bride. The most pitiful thing was that Qiao Zijin brought this upon herself.
“Mom, are we going back tomorrow?” Qiao Zijin’s wedding was over. Of course, there was no need for her to continue staying in Ping Cheng.
Miao Jing took a glance at Qiao Dongliang. “Are you sure about going home tomorrow?”
“…” Qiao Nan clutched her head in pain. “Why don’t we stay for one more day? I seldom come back and the chances of my dad going to the capital are very slim.” She stayed so far away and Qiao Zijin had the heart of a stone. Thinking about it, after Qiao Nan had children in the future, Qiao Zijin might not even be willing to let her child interact with her father and experience the joy of spending time with his grandchildren and family.
It was no wonder that her father had always wanted a son. With a son, his grandchildren would not be too far away from him. However, with a daughter, it was uncertain how many times he could see his maternal grandchild in a year; it depended on where his daughter was married to.
“Fine, if you say so. We’ll stay for one more day.”
“Okay.”
After finalizing the discussion, the mother and daughter-in-law no longer talked about this topic. When they were having dinner, Qiao Nan invited Qiao Dongliang to continue to visit the old house of the Zhai family to look after the triplets. Qiao Nan also conveniently told Qiao Dongliang that they had reserved the flights to return to the capital for the day after.
Qiao Dongliang’s smile faded much after hearing it. However, on the day of the third, Qiao Dongliang came to the house of the Zhai family early in the morning and played with the three children enthusiastically.
