Chapter 1394 - I Am the Big Sister

Chapter 1394 I Am the Big Sister

She, Da Bao, and Er Bao were very smart when they were very young. As part of the ‘Bao’ family, Tian Yu’s performance had not been up to standard.

No, she was having regrets now. She no longer wanted her younger brother, and she did not want to be the elder sister anymore.

With Xiao Bao, the younger brother around, there would be one more person to fight for her mother’s attention with her. It was so annoying.

Qiao Nan was very patient with her child. “San Bao, you can’t say that of Xiao Bao. Xiao Bao might not be as fast as the rest of you in learning to talk, but he has more strength in his legs than all of you when you were at the same age. The three of you were not able to walk as steadily as Xiao Bao.”

Not only was she trying to coax San Bao, but she was telling the truth as well.

Tian Yu might be slower in learning to talk, but he started learning to walk at an early age. He could take a few steps with people’s help when he was eight months old. By the time he was ten months old, Tian Yu did not need anyone to help him and he could take a few unsteady steps by himself. He could run around when he was not yet one year old.

If he knew more words, he would be able to bring the money to run errands for the parents like those older children.

Tian Yu had stronger legs than the Zhai family’s triplets. When the triplets were more than one year old, they could only take unsteady steps. They seemed like newly-born small ducklings who could only take unsteady steps. The adults would be in a cold sweat of anxiety as they watched them take small steps. They were worried that they would fall back on their buttocks and refused to stand back up again.

San Bao raised her eyebrows. “How could that be? When I was running around, Xiao Bao was still feeding on the milk. Haven’t I been walking more steadily than Xiao Bao? Why don’t I remember any of this?” San Bao tried very hard to recollect. Her face turned red, but she still could not remember her unglamorous past.

How was it possible that Xiao Bao had stronger legs than her? Was her mother joking with her?

Qiao Nan pinched her daughter’s pouted lips. “If you don’t believe me, you can ask your grandma and master grandpa, and all the adults that you trust.” Qiao Nan was confident of what she told her daughter. All the witnesses around her could prove that she was telling the truth.

Her mother insisted that she was telling the truth, and her grandma and auntie only sat by the side with a smile on their faces, not rebutting her mother. San Bao knew that it was likely that her mother was telling the truth.

But she was angered. She insisted that she had no recollection of what happened back then. Since she had no memory of what happened, she refused to admit that she was slower in walking properly by herself. She was the big sister, it was normal for her to do better than Xiao Bao.

She was older than Xiao Bao. If she was slower than him, it would be very embarrassing.

San Bao was stubborn. But after that day, she had a better attitude toward Xiao Bao. Although he was younger and could not keep up with the triplets, San Bao was patient with him and would wait for him to join them to play.

Qiao Nan had finally graduated from college. Zhai Sheng specially took a few days off to stay at home. His intention was to celebrate Qiao Nan’s graduation for her and to go on a graduation trip with her.

Zhai Sheng knew everything that Qiao Nan taught Shi Peng.

He and Qiao Nan had a better relationship than Shi Peng and his wife. But Zhai Sheng felt that because they had a good relationship, all the more they should pay attention to the details. This was so that their relationship would get better and they could be a married couple forever.

Since Zhai Sheng put in so much effort and made so many plans, Qiao Nan could not say no. She had to agree to his suggestion.

However, there was a vast difference in whether the couple had children or not.

The triplets were older now and they knew how to express their wishes. Once they learned that their parents were going on a trip, they stated right away that they wanted to go along with them. With them around, their mother would not get bored with their father. Compared to their father, they were better at making their mother laugh.

Of course, Da Bao was the only one who felt that he was better than his father at making his mother laugh.

Da Bao still took issue with what Miao Jing once told him. She said that his father was the only one who could make his mother happy.

Therefore, the couple trip ended up as a family trip with the five of them. Initially, Miao Jing also wanted to join them. She was no longer young. Although she used to travel a lot in the past, all of them were work trips. She never got to go on a holiday.

She might have been to a lot of places, but she had never shopped around, had good food, or gone sightseeing.

Now that she finally had a chance to go on a holiday at her age, she could travel with her son and daughter-in-law. While her son and daughter-in-law had fun, she could help take care of the three children so that the children would not disturb the couple. She would play an important role if she joined the trip.

As soon as Miao Jing made known of her intention to go on a trip with her son and daughter-in-law, Zhai Yaohui stopped her immediately. “Why would you join in the fun? There are already three third wheels. If you go along, I suppose Zhai Sheng will be in tears.” If his wife and his grandchildren went on a trip together, that would leave him by himself with the old master.

Zhai Yaohui and Old Master Zhai got along well. But people from their generation were reserved and reticent. They had been father and son for so many years, but they had never spent time with each other without other people around.

Zhai Yaohui could not imagine what would happen if they spent time alone. He did not care what was on Miao Jing’s mind and insisted that she had to stay by his side, stopping her from making a meaningless attempt to join in the fun.

After holding the family meeting, it was confirmed that Miao Jing would not join them, but the triplets managed to stick with their parents and set off for their first trip in their life.

It was a short seven-day trip. Qiao Nan did not dare to travel overseas. She only planned to travel within the country.

The trip must have two principal themes.

Firstly, sightseeing among the hills.

Secondly, touring the rivers and valleys.

Coincidentally, the place that Qiao Nan chose fulfilled these two themes.

When they were climbing the hills, other families brought their children with them. They were younger than the triplets and they would cry and make a fuss after a short walk, wanting their parents to carry them. Many parents even carried heavy baby prams with them to climb the hills. Qiao Nan learned a lot from the trip.

Qiao Nan was glad that the triplets were already old enough when Zhai Sheng suggested going on a trip. They could climb the mountains by themselves, enjoying the hike. They seldom complained or asked their parents to carry them.

When there was a comparison, one’s feelings would be hurt. After hurting the feelings of all present, Qiao Nan was in a lighter mood when she brought the triplets on the trip, having a brighter smile on her face.
