Who would have known that Zhai Sheng would do such a shocking thing that very evening? He had directly skipped a few levels. They had not even held hands, and neither had he even confessed to her. Yet, he had already held her in his arms! Would the next step be sharing a room or even a bed?

Although Miao Jing was shocked, she gave a stunning performance as a mother. While Qiao Nan had not returned from her trance, she quickly urged Zhai Hua to start the engine. Once they started driving and entered the mall, Qiao Nan would have no say in whatever she bought. The money was in her pocket. Qiao Nan would have nothing to say if Miao Jing wanted to buy anything.

Once she had already bought it, since Qiao Nan had no other clothes to change out into, Qiao Nan would have no choice but to change into the clothes that Miao Jing had bought. Now that her daughter-in-law had worn the clothes that she had bought, it would probably not be long before Qiao Nan would address her as ‘mom’.

Miao Jing, who had been feeling down the entire day, suddenly brightened up. That son-in-law was indeed a bad person who had treated her daughter and granddaughter poorly. Thankfully, her daughter would soon have nothing to do with that son-in-law, and her daughter would finally be able to dig herself out of that pit.

Her daughter would be able to rid herself of misfortune, while her son was getting his happiness very soon. It seemed that the Zhai family was moving toward a bright future. Was there anything more gratifying than this?

Through the rearview mirror, Zhai Hua could see that Miao Jing’s mouth was almost crooked from smiling. She felt sour. After all, she was about to become a divorcée, and Jiajia was about to become a child without a father. Did her mom not care about her feelings or Jiajia’s feelings at all?

“Mom.” Jiajia, who was seated in the front passenger seat, lightly touched Zhai Hua’s hand and let out a brilliant smile. “Mom, I think that this is quite good.” Jiajia was naturally sad that her parents were going to split up and that she had a father like that. But Jiajia was grateful and knew to cherish what she had.

Her paternal grandma’s family had always treated her in this manner. Even if her parents did not get divorced, that would never change. But without her paternal grandma’s family, she gained the love and affection of her maternal grandma’s family. Compared to the past, she would only gain even more from this, except for her parents’ divorce.

Her maternal grandma’s family worried a lot about her and her mom. Jiajia did not wish for them to worry about them.

Thinking about how well her maternal grandma treated her, Jiajia understood just how much her maternal grandma’s family must have wanted to meet her all these years. Unfortunately, due to her parents’ relationship, she had met her maternal grandma’s family for the first time this year. With such a comparison, Jiajia cherished her happiness even more. She wanted nothing more than to get along with her maternal grandma’s family and live a peaceful life, unlike in the past.

Since her daughter had already said that it was all right, there was nothing else Zhai Hua could say. Zhai Hua tidied up her thoughts and replied to her daughter. “It’s all good as long as you like it.” It did not really matter to her. This marriage had exhausted Zhai Hua completely. She was not going to try a second time. Moreover, she had Jiajia by her side. It really did not matter to her whether she got remarried as long as she had her daughter.

At this time, Zhai Hua finally understood why Zhai Sheng had never wanted to get remarried after his divorce from Qiu Chenxi, even though he did not have any children.

Upon reaching the shopping mall, Miao Jing threw aside all her worries. To make up for all those years of longing, the moment she saw any clothes that fit Jiajia, Miao Jing would hand them over to Jiajia, asking her to try them out. Of course, Miao Jing did not neglect Qiao Nan either. She was no less eager to pick out clothes for Qiao Nan than she was for Jiajia.

In an instant, Miao Jing became the happiest among the four of them while picking out clothes.

Zhai Hua understood the situation well. One was a granddaughter whom her mom had longed to see for over ten years, while the other was a daughter-in-law whom her mom had waited for more than twenty years. With two VIPs around, this disobedient daughter was probably not on her mom’s mind today.

Since Zhai Hua did not have any clothes to change into either, she had to rely on herself. If her mom was not going to pick out any clothes for her, she would have to do it herself.

Zhai Hua spent a long time looking at the racks absentmindedly but had not been able to pick one out to try. Her mind was filled with Wei De, Wei Xiaomei, and Wei Wei. Thinking about how these three people shared the same surname, Zhai Hua was in a terrible mood. She could not understand how there could be people like the Wei family in this world. How could anyone be so shameless?

“Sister Zhai Hua, why don’t you try this?” Zhai Hua suddenly felt a piece of clothing being shoved into her arms. Zhai Hua lifted her eyes to see Qiao Nan’s calm face in front of her. “No, there’s no need. I’ll take my time and pick something. You can just choose something for yourself.”

“...” Qiao Nan resisted the impulse to roll her eyes. Did she still need to choose anything for herself? If she did not make herself busy, she would be like Jiajia, who was spending all her time in the fitting room. “Sister Zhai Hua, go try it on. I picked this out. Jiajia has something similar. It’s a mother-and-daughter outfit that this mall just launched. It’s quite pretty.”

“A mother-and-daughter matching outfit?” That piqued Zhai Hua’s interest. Without a husband, Zhai Hua now turned all her attention to Jiajia. That was why Zhai Hua reacted in this manner the moment she heard that it was a matching outfit. “Shall I go try it out?”

“Go on.” She was not the one who needed to enter the fitting room anyway. Even though she had only tried on three outfits, Qiao Nan was already exhausted. The price of those three outfits made Qiao Nan shiver. The cost of all her clothes added up was still less expensive than the total price of those three outfits that she had just tried on! It was extravagant!

Even though she had only tried them on and had not bought them, Qiao Nan, a poor peasant, could not handle it. Besides, one had to buy it once they tried it on. But Qiao Nan could not afford such luxurious items and had no intention of splurging on such clothing. There was no need to spend a whole month’s worth of living expenses on an outfit.

Since Qiao Nan had not been getting much income lately, the only thing she could do was to reduce her expenses. This level of consumption was definitely not something she could afford.

“All right.” Zhai Hua tried on the outfit and felt that it was pretty good. It resembled a suit in a cowboy’s style and was clean-cut. Jiajia gave off a refreshing air when she wore it, while Zhai Hua seemed rather dashing. The mother-and-daughter pair looked amazing in the matching outfits.

Many shoppers stopped in their tracks upon witnessing this scene, feeling that their eyes had been treated to a great sight.
