Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 1142 - What’s the Problem?

1142 What’s the Problem?

Miao Jing felt repulsed at the thought that Ding Jiayi might do that. She did not wish to let Ding Jiayi know about the existence of her grandchild.

As for Qiao Dongliang, he would change his attitude time and again. He was worse than a woman suffering from menopause.

Particularly after Nan Nan married Zhai Sheng, Qiao Dongliang seemed to revert to his old ways. He was solely focused on helping his elder daughter, Qiao Zijin, to find a trustworthy man.

She was certain that Qiao Dongliang would be happy to know that he was going to be a grandfather.

But she was worried that the next minute, Qiao Dongliang would be worried for Qiao Zijin. Nan Nan was already going to be a mother, while Qiao Zijin had not settled down and her future in-laws were not as good as Nan Nan’s in-laws.

She was worried that Qiao Dongliang might not keep his worries to himself, and he would complain to Nan Nan. She would definitely be upset by his words.

If Nan Nan was upset, her grandchild would be affected as well.

Miao Jing felt that her in-laws were simply troublemakers!

Zhai Hua turned sullen at the mention of the Qiao family. “What’s there to be indecisive about? We shall keep it a secret first. There is the custom that one can only speak of the pregnancy after the third month so that the baby will develop well. Qiao Nan is only two months pregnant. We will wait until she is three to four months pregnant before we tell them. Moreover, we are in the capital while the Qiao family is in Ping Cheng. Even if they are angry, they will calm down given some time.”

Miao Jing snorted. “That might not be true. Qiao Dongliang might not go over the limits but the other two people in the Qiao family are shameless. We are already in the capital. I heard that Elder Lin and Zhu Chengqi are coming to the capital as well. Perhaps we will get to see each other this month. Since everyone is in the capital, do you think they will not want to come to the capital?”

The Qiao family was not well-to-do. If they came to the capital, where would they stay? What about their meals and clothes?

They would definitely ask the Zhai family to pay for them.

If the Qiao family was thankful for their help, Miao Jing would be willing to host them and would not ask them to return the favor. However, given her understanding of Ding Jiayi, not only would she not be grateful, but she might even stir up trouble.

She would not thank them. Instead, she might even be sarcastic toward them, saying that they despised her as the Qiao family was poor and that they intended to dismiss her with cheap clothes and food.

Miao Jing had seen for herself how Ding Jiayi badmouthed her daughter, Qiao Nan.

If Ding Jiayi could be so heartless to her own daughter, she would definitely be even more vicious to outsiders.

Miao Jing was very satisfied with her daughter-in-law. The only shortcoming was that she was related to Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin.

“This is not a problem. Even if they dare to come to the capital and we have to host them, there is no need for us to support them financially. I am not looking down on Uncle Qiao, but he would not be able to find a decent job in the capital. Even if he does get a job, his pay will not be enough for the entire family’s expenses. There is no need to pin any hopes on Ding Jiayi. As for Qiao Zijin, she is still taking her diploma studies. She is only in her second year. She would not be able to earn money. Instead, she would need a lot of money for her studies.”

They would not be able to earn enough to cover their expenses and they would not be able to rely on their daughter. She believed that Uncle Qiao and Ding Jiayi would not be so brazen and shameless as to pin their hopes on the Zhai family.

Even if Ding Jiayi had this in mind, Uncle Qiao would not be so shameless as to receive the money from the Zhai family.

“Say no more. I am feeling vexed.” Miao Jing waved her hands, feeling repulsed. “You are right. Nan Nan is only two months pregnant. Let’s wait until she is four months pregnant to decide whether to say or not.”

“Yes, that’s right. Don’t think too much. Shall we buy some child-rearing books to read and come up with a list of dishes for Qiao Nan?” Zhai Hua changed the topic, cheering Miao Jing up. “During the weekend, we can feed Qiao Nan with a lot of good food. But Qiao Nan will have her meals at the school canteen during weekdays. We have to check what food she cannot have. Qiao Nan is inexperienced. We do not want her to eat the wrong food.”

“Yes, you’re right. We have to be extra careful with what she eats.” If Nan Nan was fed with nutritious food, her grandchild would grow up to be healthy and strong. In another eight months, they would be plump and fair.

Miao Jing was easy to please. Since Zhai Hua was her daughter, they had a similar temperament. They were both simple and pure.

Qiao Nan had no idea that Miao Jing was in a dilemma because of her pregnancy.

Qiao Nan had been very disappointed with Qiao Dongliang over his behavior during her wedding. She could tell that he was intent on keeping contact with Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin. Qiao Nan would not stop him. Instead, she had given him a helping hand. She donated the house at the school district to Ping Cheng High School anonymously.

Principal Meng knew what was going on and he had heard about the Qiao family’s family situation. He had a talk with Qiao Dongliang and he moved out even before the end of February.

Ding Jiayi told Qiao Dongliang to move in with her and he did not reject her. Everyone in the quad knew that Qiao Dongliang and Ding Jiayi were living as husband and wife again.

Since Qiao Dongliang had moved in with Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin, Qiao Nan was no longer worried for her father.

She was so busy in the capital that she did not notice that she did not have her menses for two months. After she learned that she was pregnant, she also never thought of sharing the news with her father.

Rome was not built in a day. It was because of the way that she was treated in her two lifetimes that caused her to be on bad terms with the Qiao family.

Since Miao Jing did not inform them, it did not occur to Qiao Nan to tell them of her pregnancy.

It was May now and the weather had turned warm. Qiao Nan’s tummy was beginning to show. She went with Zhai Hua to the hospital for her prenatal checkup. Both of them were left flabbergasted with a piece of news. It was even more shocking than when they learned that Qiao Nan was pregnant.

“What’s wrong?” Zhai Hua stood by the side. She followed the female doctor’s instructions to remove Qiao Nan’s blouse so that the doctor could do the checkup. The doctor applied an oily cream on Qiao Nan’s protruding stomach and began to do the checkup.

The female doctor was performing the checkup as per normal.

But she knitted her brows as she did the examination. Zhai Hua could not help but be worried. “Is there anything wrong with Qiao Nan and the baby?”

Tian Dong heard this and took out his cell phone to get Doctor Wei to join them.
