Chapter 1256 If Capable, Let’s Compete in All Aspects
It was the Peng family’s wishful thinking. Did they think that it was so easy to have multiple births?
The Peng family or Peng Yu must be out of their mind. Why were they so bent on competing in every aspect? They even wanted to compete in having as many children as possible. It was insane.
“If it is true, this is such a joke. Since they want to compete in having more children, should they compete in other aspects as well? Nan Nan is a student at Peking University and she has received many scholarships. If not for the triplets, she would be able to study overseas on scholarship. Elder Lin is Nan Nan’s master. Can the Peng family and Peng Yu compete with us?”
Miao Jing made a list of all the possible areas that Peng Yu could compete with them. She did not believe that Peng Yu would be able to do better than her son.
She was not boasting. Nan Nan was a good child. Such a good girl was rare to come by. It would not be easy to find another lady who was just as good as Nan Nan, or even better than her. It was way more difficult than finding a lady who would have multiple births.
However, since the Peng family or Peng Yu was so competitive, they should strive to be better than Zhai Sheng in all aspects.
If the Peng family dared to pledge that they would find such a lady who could match all the conditions, and Peng Yu would stay single unless he found such a lady, Miao Jing had to hand it to the Peng family.
If they were unable to fulfill the pledge, weren’t the Peng family and Peng Yu worried that they would make a fool of themselves in their social circle?
What were they thinking of?
They must be out of their minds!
Her daughter-in-law was so outstanding. It was difficult to match up to her. Miao Jing lifted her chin, feeling proud of her daughter-in-law. She sounded very confident and sure of herself.
Miao Jing had total confidence in her daughter-in-law. For those people who wanted the Zhai family to become a laughingstock, she welcomed them to give it a try. If there was a lady who was better than her daughter-in-law, she would not lose her temper. As for those who could not match up to her daughter-in-law and said spiteful words, asking for an insult, they should not blame her for giving them the harsh treatment.
Qiao Nan’s nose felt ticklish during her lessons. She could not help but sneeze. She took out a tissue to wipe her nose.
Ever since she had children, Qiao Nan was particularly worried that she would catch a cold. Cold was infectious. The triplets were still young, and they did not have strong immunity. Furthermore, they would not want to leave her side.
If she caught a cold, and she kept a distance from the triplets, they might cry their guts out and tear down the roof of the house.
Qiao Nan often had this thought. Perhaps Zhai Sheng was seldom at home, and she had to play the role of a father and a mother. That was why the three children devoted all their love for their parents to her and were twice as close to her.
That was why whenever Zhai Sheng was back and she had to go to school, Qiao Nan could not wait to put Zhai Sheng in charge of taking care of them. She wished that Zhai Sheng could spend twenty-four hours a day with the triplets before he went back to the army.
She believed that if they spent more time together, the triplets would accept that Zhai Sheng was their father.
The National Day holiday was coming. As a third-year student, Qiao Nan still had to do her internship. After taking her lessons at school today, she would only go back to school about a month later.
Since the holiday was coming, the professors did not go through many learning points. After the professors and the counselors gave their instructions and reminders, the students left the school and went back home.
Qiao Nan came back to the Zhai family’s residence travel-worn, with beads of perspiration on her forehead. She did not hear any crying sounds of the babies coming from the house. Instead, the triplets were making threatening gestures and she could hear funny quacking sounds like the ducks coming from the house. One did not know whether to cry or smile.
Qiao Nan was stunned momentarily when she heard the funny quacking sounds. She entered the house and was amused.
San Bao, the fat chubby girl, sat on Zhai Sheng’s shoulders. Her two fat and short legs could be seen swinging about Zhai Sheng’s chest. She grabbed Zhai Sheng’s hair to steady herself and ordered Zhai Sheng to run around the house.
Zhai Sheng’s hair was as short as the bristles on the brush. She had to hand it to her daughter for getting a grip on them.
“Ma.” Da Bao, who would stare at Zhai Sheng from time to time for fear that Zhai Sheng would steal her sister when he was not watching, noticed that the door opened to reveal her mother who just came back from school.
Ever since the man came to their house, Da Bao realized that his grandma and all of them were behaving oddly.
Da Bao did not know that there were human traffickers around. But at his young age, he was aware that he had to protect his sister from being taken away by other people.
Da Bao was worried sick that his grandma and the rest of them did not stop the man from carrying his sister and playing with her.
Now that his mama was back, Da Bao knew that as long as his mama was around, she would prevent San Bao from being taken away by the bad guy.
Qiao Nan was amused at the relieved look on Da Bao’s face. He looked mature for his age. She washed her hands and face quickly and ran to carry Da Bao. “Da Bao, be good. Tell me what’s wrong.” Her triplets had a fair complexion while their father was tanned. Qiao Nan could not help give Da Bao two kisses on his cheeks.
Da Bao, who pulled a stern face, finally smiled at his mama’s kisses. Da Bao grabbed his mama’s neck and turned to look at San Bao. “San, San.” Da Bao did not know how to say the word ‘sister’. He only knew how to say the word ‘san’, but he was anxious as he looked at San Bao. Qiao Nan understood what her son was talking about.
Qiao Nan planted another kiss on Da Bao’s cheeks. “Da Bao is so sensible, but Da Bao might have forgotten. Mama has told you that he is your papa. He is papa. Papa will not take San Bao away.”
“Photo, photo?” Da Bao was confused. He remembered his papa was in the photo that his mama showed him.
“Haha. That’s mama’s mistake. This is papa. The man that you saw back then is papa’s photo. Da Bao, call him papa. Papa is very strong. He can lift you high up into the air and he knows how to use a gun. In the future, let’s get papa to teach you, shall we?” Da Bao and Er Bao, who were only one year old, started to have different likes and dislikes from San Bao.
Qiao Nan used to worry that there were too many bullet shell models at home. It was such a waste.
However, now that she had triplets, each of them would be able to have one model. It was just nice.
Under Da Bao’s and Er Bao’s influence, San Bao would fiddle with the bullet shell models occasionally. Compared to San Bao who was not as interested, Da Bao and Er Bao cherished their bullet shell models. At times, they would hug them to sleep.
No matter how Qiao Nan tried to coax them to pass the bullet shell models to her, they would not let go of the models. She had to wait until they had fallen asleep before she pried the models out from Da Bao’s and Er Bao’s embrace.
