The Zhai family had already guessed that Zhai Sheng would change after marriage but they had never expected such a drastic change. It was enough to leave the Zhai family’s jaw agape.

“Wow... Is uncle carrying auntie down?” Jiajia’s jaw dropped. Her classmates dated but they were all rather reserved. Few even held hands in front of others. If they went on a date, they would choose somewhere where other schoolmates would not go.

1

They would never be as daring as her uncle and auntie. Her uncle’s arm was around her auntie’s waist! If her eyes were not lying to her, her auntie’s feet had not even touched the ground!

“Ahem...” Zhai Hua rolled her eyes at Zhai Sheng. “Watch it. Jiajia’s still young.” Zhai Hua had no way of explaining to her daughter that her uncle and auntie were not expressing their love for each other. It was because her uncle had exhausted her auntie that she could not even walk. She would have no answers to Jiajia’s questions. As such, Zhai Hua chose not to dig a hole for herself in case she accidentally buried herself in it.

“Nan Nan and I are legally married now. It’s permissible by law for us to be intimate with each other. What’s wrong?” Zhai Sheng sat Qiao Nan by his side before scooping a bowl of congee for her. “Sit down and drink some of this to fill your stomach. It’s nutritious.”

“I’ll do it myself.” After resting for a while, Qiao Nan did have some energy, after all. She had not rejected Zhai Sheng carrying her down the stairs because her legs were simply too sore. Walking on flat ground was still alright, but going down the stairs was still a little too much for Qiao Nan in her current state.

Zhai Yaohui looked at Miao Jing proudly. He had already said that they would not have a honeymoon baby but a baby on the first day of the marriage! But the books that Miao Miao had been reading did say doing so too frequently was not beneficial for pregnancy. He would have to remind Zhai Sheng about that.

It was only when the bowl of congee reached her stomach did Qiao Nan feel alive. “Sister Zhai Hua, have you bought your tickets to Sanya? What time is it? Shall I get Brother Zhai to send you guys to the airport?”

Before Zhai Sheng could even give her a reminder, Zhai Hua quickly rejected the offer. “That won’t be necessary. There are parking lots at the Ping Cheng airport. I’ll drive there and park my car there. It won’t cost much to park my car there for a few days. It’s just as well. When we come back, we won’t need to get a cab and we’ll be able to come back on our own too.”

It was no longer early and they had to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, the southern courtyard’s gate would be blocked once again.

It was such a nice morning, and there was a tacit understanding not to mention anything about the Qiao family. Upon finishing their breakfast, Zhai Sheng headed into one car, and Zhai Hua headed into another. Both cars left the Zhai family’s compound, headed for different directions. In an instant, the Zhai family’s house that had been bustling just a day earlier was now empty, save for someone who dropped by occasionally to take a look at the condition of the house.

“Don’t stop me!” There was a huge ‘commotion’ early in the morning at the gate of the southern courtyard. Ding Jiayi’s face was filled with rage and displeasure. “I want to talk it out with them. Who dares to send her own mom and sister to the police station? So what if she married into a good family? No matter what, I was the one who gave birth to her. She can’t choose not to acknowledge me as her mom. I won’t let this go just like that! Let’s see just how she can continue being so shameless once this matter gets out!”

When Qiao Zijin had aired her suspicions to Ding Jiayi, Ding Jiayi had exploded. The world was upside down. How could a daughter have called the police, asking for her own mother and sister to be arrested?

“Before you try to reason it out with them, shouldn’t you think about whether your actions were appropriate? Do you think the police would have arrested you and detained you for half a day if you did nothing wrong? The police have to go by the books. Besides, I’ve already explained to you many times that you guys getting detained had nothing to do with Nan Nan. There were so many guests at Nan Nan’s wedding yesterday. She couldn’t even manage...” How could she have had the time to think about Old Ding and Zijin?

Ding Jiayi’s expression revealed her disbelief. “That can’t be true. We’re now in-laws with the Zhai family. Aside from that heartless wretched girl, who else would have dared to call the police on us? Do they have something against the Zhai family? Or are they truly that bold and not afraid to die?”

Ding Jiayi was being unreasonably arrogant. While she looked down on Qiao Nan, she also prided herself on being in-laws with the Zhai family. How on earth had Ding Jiayi formed such complex and contradictory feelings?

Qiao Dongliang was truly exhausted mentally. “Old Ding, do you still not understand? The person who married into the Zhai family was not you. It was Qiao Nan. Do you really think that you are on good terms with the Zhai family?”

“But I’m Qiao Nan’s mom!” Why would she not be on good terms with them?

“Yes, Nan Nan did marry into the Zhai family. But are you on good terms with Nan Nan? Since you aren’t even on good terms with Nan Nan, do you really expect the Zhai family to have a close relationship with you? The Zhai family’s attitude toward you depends on Nan Nan’s attitude. As for Nan Nan’s attitude, I don’t think I have to say anything more. I’m sure you understand it well. You don’t have a normal mother-and-daughter relationship with Nan Nan.”

If she did, would she not have told her mother that she was getting married? Would she not have invited her mother to her wedding? Similarly, if Ding Jiayi had just the slightest feelings toward Qiao Nan, she would never have needed to wait until the age of forty to get married.

Qiao Dongliang had to admit that Qiao Nan had been right about one thing. While it was true that she had the good fortune of getting married to such a brilliant man like Zhai Sheng at the age of forty, there was no need for her to thank Ding Jiayi for the sufferings she had gone through, causing her to remain unmarried until the age of forty before getting the opportunity to get married.

There was not even a relationship to talk about between Qiao Nan and Ding Jiayi.

Ding Jiayi had never given anything to Qiao Nan. In fact, Ding Jiayi had always been on the receiving end. Since Ding Jiayi thought that Qiao Nan had married well and was giving her some face by marrying into the Zhai family, all the more she should have helped Qiao Nan organize her wedding well so that no one would be able to fault Qiao Nan in any way.

But what did Ding Jiayi do instead?

Qiao Nan herself had not had any problems, but Ding Jiayi’s appearance made Qiao Nan seem like someone riddled with problems. Because of that, Qiao Dongliang did not even want to persuade Qiao Nan otherwise.

Ding Jiayi gritted her teeth. “Do you mean that that wretched girl purposely ruined my image in front of the Zhai family, causing them to misunderstand me?” No wonder she had never even crossed the southern courtyard’s gates even once after that wretched girl got into the Zhai family!
