Chapter 1248 There is a Bad Guy
Zhai Hua felt like she had taken a stick of ice pop. It was so cooling that she was no longer perspiring. “They are good. Indeed, Da Bao and Er Bao are the offspring of the Zhai family. They are so adept at giving these two slaps. They have their father’s style.”
If Da Bao and Er Bao were sent to the army in the future, she did not even need to worry who would be so blind to bully her two nephews.
Didn’t they see that the ever-victorious Zhai Sheng in the army also had to take slaps from Bao and Er Bao?
These two nephews of hers were simply too wonderful. They could not be any better.
The two slaps that he suffered had consoled Zhai Hua. Zhai Sheng was not pleased about this and pulled a long face. “Do you feel that happy?”
Zhai Hua sat on the sofa and replied happily, “Happy! I was only scratched by my niece while you were beaten by your two biological sons. Although Da Bao’s and Er Bao’s little fists do not have much strength now, it carries a different meaning.” She would feel at peace as long as Zhai Sheng was more miserable than her.
Qiao Nan rolled her eyes, feeling speechless. While carrying San Bao, she walked slowly toward Zhai Sheng with Da Bao and Er Bao following her by the side.
At the sight of his wife and children walking toward him, the initially sharp and strict look in Zhai Sheng’s eyes gradually turned soft. The cold and aloof winter snow melted and became purling streams in spring.
With the change of the look in his eyes, the triplets, who knew how to pursue good fortune and avoid disasters, did not feel that adversarial toward Zhai Sheng anymore. They were willing to approach Zhai Sheng together with their mother.
Qiao Nan held on to the short little hands of the triplets and guided them to touch Zhai Sheng’s clothes. “San Bao, didn’t Mom teach you before? This is your dad. Call dad.” Having said that, Qiao Nan touched the faces of Da Bao and Er Bao. She also gave the same encouragement to her sons so that they would try to accept Zhai Sheng.
“No, no!” The little girl shook her head unhappily while constantly drawing in the air with her chubby hands. “Pa, pa…” San Bao expressed that she had a father but her father did not look like this. He looked like that.
Da Bao and Er Bao nodded in agreement. Each time, when their mother asked them to call father, he was not so big-sized. He was very small and they could hold him in their hands.
Qiao Nan did not know whether to laugh or cry. “That was your father’s photograph. This is your father who is real and alive.” Zhai Sheng spent too little time at home. Qiao Nan also did not want the triplets to become too unfamiliar with Zhai Sheng. Hence, she held one of the wedding photographs that they took in the past for the triplets to see and call their father.
Unexpectedly, the triplets’ impression of the photograph was too deep. They did not acknowledge their biological father’s real person and were persistent in rejecting him. “Da Bao, Er Bao, San Bao, look at your dad’s face carefully. This is really your dad.”
The chubby daughter pursed her lips tightly, unhappy. She then wriggled into her mother’s arms. No recognition. No impression. Completely could not remember. Hence, she was not willing to bother.
Perhaps the impact of the earlier hug was still lingering. Da Bao and Er Bao tilted their heads and gave Zhai Sheng a few more glances. Even so, Da Bao and Er Bao stuck closely to their mother and did not take the initiative to approach Zhai Sheng.
Zhai Hua, who came back together with Zhai Sheng, received a similar treatment. The difference was that Zhai Hua had taken care of the triplets for a few months after all. As such, the triplets were friendlier toward Zhai Hua.
After receiving such differential treatment, the direct outcome of this was that Zhai Hua ate two more bowls of rice during dinner!
Both Old Master Zhai and Zhai Yaohui were very happy that Zhai Hua and Zhai Sheng were back. The men of the three generations went to Old Master Zhai’s study room and talked for a long time.
When it was seven o’clock in the evening, the triplets were tired. They started to rub their eyes with their fair and chubby hands as they stuck by Qiao Nan’s side and yelled ‘sleep, sleep’.
When Zhai Sheng, who came out of Old Master Zhai’s study room, saw this, he carried his sons with one hand each and headed upstairs.
Zhai Sheng had carried two of them away. Naturally, Qiao Nan only had to carry her chubby daughter.
The family of five looked so harmonious from their backs. Miao Jing was the only one who revealed a look of worry in her eyes. She felt that it would definitely not be so peaceful tonight.
As the triplets grew, they could gradually express their views. All this while, they had been sleeping with Qiao Nan on the same bed.
Their bed was quite huge, but no matter how huge it was, it was not convenient for two adults and three children to sleep on at the same time.
Each time her son was back, Qiao Nan would either wake up late or her legs were as wobbly as noodles the next day such that she would be very worried for Qiao Nan when the latter walked.
When Zhai Sheng was back the last time, the triplets were still very young and were like three little piglets who would sleep soundly after having their fills. It was unlike now whereby they were awake for longer hours during the day. Basically, they did not have many more hours of sleep than adults.
If her son and daughter-in-law did something, created a huge commotion to wake the triplets up, that scene would simply be too wonderful. Miao Jing dared not continue with the thought.
Besides this, Miao Jing was also having a bad headache about another problem.
Indeed, she was the lady master of the house. Miao Jing’s worry was coming into play in the bedroom at this very moment.
After Qiao Nan wiped the three children’s hands and legs, put on dudous for them, and settled them in bed, they reacted in the same way. Instead of taking the initiative to look for their little pillows, lying on the bed, and waiting quietly for their mama to come back like they did in the past, they sat up one by one.
Facing the stranger on the bed that suddenly appeared, the triplets had a heightened sense of danger. Three babies, three pairs of eyes—they were staring at Zhai Sheng. The triplets strongly intended to scare Zhai Sheng away from the room using the look in their eyes.
During battles and military exercises, amid hails of bullets and cold-blooded and merciless killers, Zhai Sheng had never retreated a step out of fear. Now, he was just facing three feeble and weak babies. Although the other party was bigger in numbers, as the father, would he be afraid of his sons and daughter?
Three children that refused to give up and one father who loved his children unconditionally.
These three children and one adult were staring and glaring at one another in a cross-eyed manner. None refused to take a step back. They were watching each other like a hawk, with the strong intention to chase the other party away from this huge bed.
When Qiao Nan came out of the restroom after washing up, she bumped into this funny scene. “What are the four of you, father and children, doing? Are you competing on whose eyes are bigger or smaller?”
“Mama!” San Bao’s eyes lit up as she pouted and reached out her short hands toward her mother.
San Bao expressed that there was a stranger at home and she was scared. She needed her mother’s love, hugs, and kisses. Also, could her mother quickly shoo this stranger out of the house? San Bao was feeling scared.
