Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 1097 - Might Would Be Redoubled

1097 Might Would Be Redoubled

“Feng Cheng, I don’t deny that Qing Qing comes from a better family background than Qiao Nan, but when it comes to capability, Qiao Nan is more worthy of Zhai Sheng than Qing Qing is.” Qiao Nan was capable not because of the support that she received from the other families. Instead, it was because of her own ability.

“Feng Cheng, let’s not talk about Qing Qing. Ask yourself. If you were Qiao Nan, would you be able to achieve what she has achieved? Qiao Nan’s relationship with the Zhu family, the Lee family, and Old Lin are not as what you imagined it to be.”

People who did not know might think that it was because of the Zhai family that Qiao Nan was acquainted with all the powerful families.

They must have thought that it was on account of the Zhai family that the big-shots were willing to give her face.

The truth was the exact opposite.

“We should be proud if Qing Qing is half as capable as Qiao Nan. However, the child has to pay a price for being mature for her age. In comparison, I would rather that Qing Qing is as carefree as she is now.”

Feng Cheng, who was in a daze, forgot to rebut Shi Peng and nodded automatically instead.

The truth was a harsh blow for Feng Cheng.

Shi Peng knew that Feng Cheng looked down on Qiao Nan, thinking that Qiao Nan relied on the Zhai family to be what she was today.

Feng Cheng must have been in a big shock to know that she had been wrong all along.

To Feng Cheng, her daughter was capable and outstanding. However, it was not to the extent that the elders from other families would treat her as their granddaughter. Old Master Shi groomed Qiu Chenxi, his maternal granddaughter, while Old Master Feng had two grandsons. They would never put Shi Qing as their priority.

It was impossible to get the affection of the elders at home, notwithstanding other elders who were not related to them.

Feng Cheng kept silent for a long while. “Is Qiao Nan really that capable?”

Did the Zhu family, the Lee family, and Old Lin do all that on account of Qiao Nan?

It did not make sense and seemed unbelievable.

“You should not ask me. Qiao Nan will be getting married today. The Zhu family, the Lee family, and Old Lin will definitely be there. You can see for yourself if what I said is true or not, lest you say that I influence your judgment.” Shi Peng had no wish to say any further, telling Feng Cheng to judge for herself.

Seeing is believing. What one hears may not be true.

Shi Peng and Shi Qing could put in a lot of good words for Qiao Nan, but the effect was not as great as Feng Cheng seeing the truth for herself.

It was impossible for the Zhu family to fake the joy and happiness that they felt.

Everyone in the Zhu family must have adopted the same attitude as the head of the family.

“Let me show you Qiao Nan’s dowry.” Shi Peng might not be the contact person for Qiao Nan’s wedding, but in fact, he was very much involved in the preparations right from the start. He was more involved than Qiao Dongliang, who was Qiao Nan’s father. Feng Cheng had no idea at all.

Qiao Dongliang might not know what was going on, but Shi Peng knew it at the tips of his fingers. “Everything over here is Qiao Nan’s dowries.”

“My goodness...” Feng Cheng sucked in her breath at the room that was filled with Qiao Nan’s dowries.

The Feng family and the Shi family were doing similarly well. They did not lack the money and had seen their fair share of expensive jewelry and clothes.

The problem was Qiao Nan could not be compared to the Shi family or the Feng family. The room that was packed with all sorts of dowries came as a visual shock to Feng Cheng.

At least to Feng Cheng, given the Qiao family’s financial situation, they would not be able to prepare one-tenth of the dowries that were in the room, let alone the amount of dowries that she saw now.

“How much did it cost to prepare the dowries?” The Zhu family could not have splurged their money. The grandson in the Zhu family was as old as Qing Qing. In another three to four years, he would be getting married.

“All I can say is that there may be a lot of dowries here and they seem to cost a lot, but all those that are truly valuable are not kept here.” Usually, it was the most ordinary and not to be easily seen dowries that were worth the most!

Those dowries that took up a lot of space were mainly to appease the ordinary people.

The Zhu family, the Lee family, and Old Lin were more liberal with their money than one could imagine.

Feng Cheng was stingy. She stopped Shi Peng from spending too much to prepare Qiao Nan’s dowry. Shi Peng knew very well that among everyone who helped prepare Qiao Nan’s dowry, he forked out the least money.

Feng Cheng could not help but gasp in shock. “Don’t the Zhu family, the Lee family, and Old Lin need to keep aside some money for themselves? What did they prepare for Qiao Nan? How much are they worth?”

Although Feng Cheng came from a good family background, upon hearing Shi Peng’s words, she could not help but be jealous of Qiao Nan.

Back when she married Shi Peng, the dowry that she had could not even be compared to Qiao Nan’s dowry.

Feng Cheng wondered. After Shi Qing started dating and was preparing for her wedding, given the Shi family’s and the Feng family’s financial capabilities, would the dowry that they prepared for Shi Qing be more significant than Qiao Nan’s dowry?

Feng Cheng did not have the answer to her question!

This answer was enough to give her a headache.

Feng Cheng looked upset. “It seems like Qiao Nan is not the only one who has good fortune. The Zhai family stands to gain from this marriage.” Feng Cheng sounded grumpy.

If it was like what Shi Peng had said, the Zhu family, the Lee family, and Old Lin were very close to Qiao Nan. Once Qiao Nan became the daughter-in-law of the Zhai family, it would bring the Zhai family closer to the three families.

Even if this was not the case, whenever there were good opportunities in the future, these three families would definitely think of the Zhai family.

Even if the Zhai family went downhill or got into serious trouble, as long as the three families were willing to help them, the Zhai family would be able to overcome the crisis.

Moreover, the Zhai family was illustrious and influential.

Once Qiao Nan married Zhai Sheng, the Zhai family’s influences and might would be redoubled!

Every family, notwithstanding the Zhai family, would wish to have such a capable daughter-in-law!

At the thought of her two unmarried nephews, Feng Cheng felt jealous and grumpy.

Zhai Sheng was not being shortchanged in this marriage. Instead, he had gained a lot.

She did not expect that Qiao Nan, who came from a humble background and had unbearable parents, would be so capable and charismatic!

To be honest, whoever married Qiao Nan would be akin to bringing a golden Buddha home, assuring his family of future success!

Shi Peng felt much at ease seeing that Feng Cheng seemed to have understood his words.

Apart from the three people from the Qiao family who were oblivious to her abilities, everyone who knew Qiao Nan could tell that she was a rare gem.
