Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 1213 - Nasty Temper

1213 Nasty Temper

Qiao Nan did not know what it would be like to study at the military school. Zhai Sheng only briefly told her about it. Qiao Nan was very agitated to have news of Shi Qing.

Qiao Nan patted San Bao’s chubby hands and smiled. “San Bao, your godmother is back. She has not been to see you since you were born. Should we give her some punishment?”

Qiao Nan, who was a first-time mother, did not know that being a mother was equivalent to striking it rich.

On the day that she gave birth to triplets in the hospital, her in-laws gave a red packet to her.

The old master said that although there was no longer the custom of holding a bathing ceremony for the babies on the third day since they were born, he must still give each of them a red packet as a blessing. Therefore, Qiao Nan received three packets from the old master on behalf of the triplets. Thereafter, there was the one-month-old celebration as well as the hundredth-day celebration.

The Zhai family had many relatives. As a result, the triplets received many red packets from them.

Zhu Chengqi and Lin Yuankang were especially generous with the triplets. They gave the triplets red packets and each packet had a larger amount of money than the previous. It was as if they were bent on spending all their fortune on the triplets.

Since Zhu Chengqi was so generous with the triplets, Qiao Nan wondered whether he would have the money for the bride price when Zhu Baoguo married Shi Qing in the future. Qiao Nan was kind enough to feel that she should return some money to Zhu Baoguo.

However, now that she knew Shi Qing was back, she had to vent her pent-up frustrations. She must get Shi Qing to prepare red packets for the triplets to compensate for hurting the triplets’ feelings.

“Owww.” San Bao could not understand what her mama was talking about. She noticed that her mama was smiling. Since she was smiling, it meant that she was happy. Therefore, San Bao curled the corners of her lips and laughed along with Qiao Nan.

Her laughter seemed to be contagious, or perhaps there was a button on San Bao’s body. As soon as she laughed, Da Bao and Er Bao began laughing as well. The house was filled with Qiao Nan’s and the triplets’ laughter.

Qiao Nan smiled daintily like a lady while there was the unique smell of milk in the triplets’ smiles. The house was full of laughter. This winter, the Zhai family’s residence felt particularly warm.

The triplets just came back from the hospital and they must be thirsty. Miao Jing and the auntie filled the milk bottles with warm water for them to quench their thirst.

Seeing that Qiao Nan and the triplets were laughing happily, despite not knowing what they were laughing about, Miao Jing broke into laughter as well. Qiao Nan took the milk bottle from her and carried San Bao without a word.

San Bao, who recognized the milk bottle, stopped smiling. She clasped her hands over the milk bottle and began drinking the water.

The triplets were thirsty after making the trip outside and laughing along with their mother.

Miao Jing filled one-third of the milk bottle with water. The triplets finished them in no time.

Miao Jing’s heart ached. “We are too inexperienced. When the triplets go out next time, we must bring the milk bottles along. We must remember to bring six milk bottles. Three bottles will be filled with milk while three bottles will be filled with water.” The triplets must not go thirsty.

Zhai Sheng, who held Er Bao in his arms, frowned. “Mom, they are not that delicate.” In Zhai Sheng’s opinions, if they brought six milk bottles whenever they went out, it was as if they were into the business of selling milk bottles.

Qiao Nan made San Bao stand upright after she finished her water. She could tell what was on Zhai Sheng’s mind. “Do you know how people looked at us when we visited the supermarket that sells mother and infant products? The outsiders already felt that we must be selling milk bottles. You should count the number of milk bottles that we have at home.”

Qiao Nan had no other alternative.

The triplets were growing and their appetites increased rapidly.

The triplets were four months old and they did not need to use the milk bottle with the largest volume. When they were six to seven months old, they would have to use another type of milk bottles. A child would need at least three to four milk bottles. Now that they had three children at home, they would have around ten milk bottles at home.

This was the number of milk bottles that they had when the triplets were four months old.

The elders doted on the children. They knew that they had to change the milk bottles as they grew bigger. Therefore, they had already bought the milk bottles that the triplets would need when they were six to seven months old.

The triplets would need at least two milk bottles to drink their milk as well as milk bottles to drink water.

When they came out of the supermarket, they had nothing but milk bottles. Their car was full of milk bottles. It was a shocking sight. Everyone who witnessed this scene would ask them out of curiosity if they were running a mother-and-infant shop.

Apart from milk bottles and formula milk, they bought a lot of diapers as well.

The Zhai family had a room that was used to store the things that the triplets needed. Qiao Nan patted the round and chubby bottom of San Bao. Not every family was capable of raising triplets. The triplets were lucky to have elders to dote on them.

San Bao was draped over her mama’s shoulder. Like her, her mama smelled like milk. But there was another different smell on her as well. San Bao smiled occasionally, opening her mouth to suck on her mama’s cotton collar. Once she sank her teeth on it, she began chewing on it.

Qiao Nan noticed that her collar was wet. It must be that San Bao’s gums were itching and she needed something to grind on.

Zhai Sheng glanced at Qiao Nan and passed a teething rusk to San Bao right away. The first thing that a four-month-old San Bao did when someone put something in her mouth was to open her mouth, bite on it, and grind her teeth!

San Bao realized that the teething rusk in her mouth was tastier and nicer to chew on than her mama’s collar. She twisted her body, wanting her mama to carry her so that she could grab the teething rush in her hands and focus on chewing it.

Other than San Bao, Da Bao and Er Bao were just as interested in the teething rusks. The triplets had discovered a new toy today.

Qiao Nan breathed a sigh of relief. “My clothes will no longer be chewed on by the babies.”

Zhai Sheng took a tissue and wiped Qiao Nan’s collar that was wet from San Bao’s bite. “Aren’t you going to give Shi Qing a call?” Zhai Sheng knew that his wife must be very worried about Shi Qing.

They had lost touch for nearly a year. Qiao Nan had brought up Shi Qing to him more than once, asking him to check if there was news of her.

Although Shi Qing was a woman, Zhai Sheng could not help but be jealous of her since Qiao Nan kept bringing her up.

If they were on the phone, Zhai Sheng could only grind his teeth in anger. If he was next to her like now, when Qiao Nan brought up Shi Qing in front of him and made him jealous, he would not hesitate to ‘punish’ her on the bed!

“This won’t do.” Qiao Nan wanted to give Shi Qing a call, but San Bao would not let her go. San Bao was contented to be in her mama’s embrace. If anyone dared to remover her from her mama’s embrace, she would definitely give them a punch. San Bao might be a young lady, but she had a nasty temper!
