Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 2467: Panicked (2)

“We’re father and son. Don’t ask such stupid questions in the future. Our family doesn’t have a history of Alzheimer’s disease. When the old master left, he might have been in poor health, but his mind was still clear. You’d better not embarrass him.”

When it came to relationship matters, Zhai Sheng didn’t think that it was necessary to respect his elders. After all, Zhai Yaohui had not made a good start for his children. How could he ask for anything from them?

In the end, Zhai Hua lived in Ping Cheng while his son’s family lived with him and his wife. But Zhai Sheng never listened to him and always did as he pleased. Zhai Yaohui couldn’t tame that wild nature of his.

Thankfully, both Zhai Yaohui and Miao Jing were fine with it. Since they couldn’t control him, they wouldn’t try to do so. They were assured by the fact that there was, in fact, someone who could control Zhai Sheng by his side. She would stay by Zhai Sheng’s side and take care of him for them. Because of that, there was nothing for them to worry about.

“Alright. You take care of your wife, and I’ll take care of mine. We won’t talk about this.” It was rare for the father and son to be chatting, but they separated upon the mention of their wives. “I’ll go back to accompany your mom.”

“I’m going to take care of my wife.”

Usually, others would return home to find their moms.

But with the men of the Zhai family, it became finding their wives.

“Da Bao, Er Bao, San Bao.”

It was a holiday and they heard a female voice shouting out for the Zhai family’s children as though she was taking their attendance. “Sister Jiajia’s here to visit you guys!”

The moment they heard Jiajia’s voice, the one with the largest reaction was naturally San Bao. There were times she would keep secrets from Da Bao, Er Bao, and even her mom, Qiao Nan. But she would definitely tell her sister, Jiajia, those secrets.

It was only natural that Jiajia treated San Bao as a precious daughter and cherished her deeply. They shared a close relationship, and even Qiao Nan was jealous of it.

“Sister Jiajia!” San Bao yelped out and rushed out of the room toward Jiajia. “Sister Jiajia, how many days of holiday do you have this time?”

Jiajia had gotten quite a decent score for her college entrance examination and had managed to enter a school in the capital. As such, Jiajia immediately registered for a school in the capital for the sake of her younger siblings, angering Zhai Hua in the process.

It was only because of her bad karma from her previous life that she had given birth to such a daughter.

If Jiajia had decided to go to the capital to study for the sake of her siblings, would she even return to Ping Cheng for work?

Given the Zhai family’s status, it wouldn’t be difficult for them to help Jiajia find a job in the capital for her to settle down there.

Zhai Hua had no other choice. Wherever her daughter was, was where she would be. As such, she had no choice but to move over to the capital as well.

To be honest, even without the Zhai family’s help, Jiajia was already a second-generation heir thanks to her mother, Zhai Hua. She had no lack of money.

Jiajia, who had once thought of going down the same path as her mother by entering the military to join Shi Qing, had changed her mind in the past few years.

As Zhai Hua’s daughter, Jiajia did indeed have some desire for the army. But she wasn’t as stubborn as Zhai Hua, and neither was she as obsessed about being an official like her father was.

It was only because Jiajia had met an impressive female soldier, Shi Qing, that she had wanted to be one.

Besides, there was something Jiajia had never mentioned, but Qiao Nan had felt it. Jiajia wanted to be a soldier because she felt that Zhai Hua had given up her passion and had become a full-time housewife after marrying Wei De to take care of her.

To a certain extent, Jiajia wanted to use her life to make up for Zhai Hua’s regrets by being a soldier.

Zhai Hua hadn’t been able to go through with her plans and dreams because of her marriage to Wei De. As Zhai Hua’s daughter, it was only right for her to help her mother fulfill these dreams.

Zhai Hua had opposed the idea at that time, but Jiajia, who had only been in her second year of school, was headstrong and insisted on going into the military.

But now that two or three years had passed, Jiajia had calmed down and had even become hesitant. She wasn’t too sure about becoming a female soldier anymore.

Having sensed that, Qiao Nan decided to have a chat with Jiajia. Afterward, Jiajia no longer insisted on going into the military and had changed her aspirations.

Qiao Nan had managed to convince Jiajia out of it and Zhai Hua had initially been grateful toward her for that. But after learning about the major that Jiajia had applied for, Zhai Hua had almost died from anger.

Since she ran a business, Jiajia would be able to inherit her company in the future if she studied something like economics.

But what did Jiajia apply for? What kind of job was Jiajia planning on getting after graduating?

After learning that Jiajia was trying to follow in Qiao Nan’s footsteps by leaving the job of earning money to others while she only spent money and did charitable work, Zhai Hua scolded Qiao Nan. “It’s not like you don’t have a daughter. You even have two more sons! You have three children, so why are you trying to snatch my daughter away from me? Jiajia should inherit my company!” She hadn’t even tried to snatch Qiao Nan’s children, so why was Qiao Nan trying to snatch hers?

Qiao Nan wiped Sister Zhai Hua’s saliva off her face. “Sister Zhai Hua, let’s be reasonable. When did I try to snatch your daughter away?”

At the mention of this, Qiao Nan didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry.

Sister Zhai Hua was right. She was a mother to three. Her own children already worried her enough every day. Why would she try to snatch Jiajia away?

“Are you still angry that Jiajia applied for a university in the capital? Don’t Dad and Mom agree that universities in the capital are good? Even if she doesn’t go to the best universities, she can study in top-tier universities. Sister Zhai Hua, what are you worried about?”

She couldn’t possibly neglect Jiajia’s future just because she wanted to keep her daughter by her side.

“That’s over. I’m not talking about that.”

Indeed, Jiajia had done well in her exams, and although she had not been a valedictorian, her scores had not been low at all. It would be foolish to forgo top schools like Peking University and Tsinghua University with that score. She would never allow Jiajia to do such a foolish thing.

“Then?”

Qiao Nan was utterly confused. The most important matter at home recently was undoubtedly Jiajia applying to universities.
