Chapter 1247 - Hit Their Father
Zhai Hua’s expression darkened. “It turned out that the triplets took me as an outsider and a bad guy.” Zhai Hua finally understood that the triplets had misunderstood her. Zhai Hua felt wronged.
Someone else had a fate worse than her.
In order to feel better, Zhai Hua moved aside, pushing Zhai Sheng, who stood behind her, forward. “If I am a bad guy, what about him?” She spent a lot of time to take care of the triplets when they were still a few months old. She held them as they urinated and pooped, and she watched as they grew up.
To her surprise, she was only away for four months and the triplets had taken her as a stranger and a bad guy.
Zhai Hua felt as if she was struck a million times and had died due to serious injuries.
Miao Jing, who felt smug, was conflicted and embarrassed at her daughter’s words.
Hua Hua had indeed spent quite a lot of time taking care of the babies whereas she and the auntie only spent slightly more time than Hua Hua did with the triplets. Despite that, the triplets could not recognize their auntie. Their father barely spent any time with them. It would be a miracle if they could recognize their father. If so, they must be geniuses.
Zhai Sheng, who kept his silence, glanced at Zhai Hua. He knew that she was making use of him to feel better. He took one step forward with his long legs and walked toward Da Bao and Er Bao,
The triplets had grown up to be healthy and strong. They were chubby and weighed more than ten kilograms.
Ordinary folks like Qiao Nan would be able to carry one of them at a time, but she would not be able to carry the baby for long. If she were to carry two babies in one go, it would be killing her. Qiao Nan had to go through training to become the muscle babe before she could accomplish that.
It was different for Zhai Sheng. He was a man and a soldier. He had physical strength and stamina. The elites in the army were not his opponent, let alone women and ordinary men.
Da Bao and Er Bao might add up to a total of thirty kilograms. But Zhai Sheng was able to carry them steadily each in one arm without the slightest frown.
Da Bao and Er Bao opened their mouths and grabbed Zhai Sheng’s clothes nervously. Da Bao and Er Bao realized right away that their horizons had widened and they had never been at such a height before.
As boys, Da Bao and Er Bao found it very fascinating to be able to stand taller than the rest of them and to have a clear, unobstructed view. They loved it very much. Although it was their house, it was a different experience to look at everything from a different perspective. Da Bao and Er Bao did not mind that a ‘stranger’ was carrying them. They kept turning their heads to take in the views.
Da Bao and Er Bao merely treated their father as a human ladder. Other people present noticed that Da Bao and Er Bao did not shun Zhai Sheng and were having a good time with him. The first thought that came to their mind was that this was the innate bond between father and sons!
“What’s wrong?” Qiao Nan ran all the way back from school. Beads of perspiration could be seen on her forehead and her face was flushed red. She panted as she asked about the situation at home. “The triplets seem to be crying. A-am I too late today? Are the triplets throwing tantrums? Brother Zhai, Sister Zhai Hua, what brings you back home?”
Qiao Nan was anxious when she heard that her daughter was crying. She could not take her time and came running toward the house.
She thought that San Bao was throwing her temper and therefore kept crying.
She had a big surprise when she opened the door. “The two of you are back. Did you just come back?” Qiao Nan noticed that Zhai Sheng and Zhai Hua looked as if they had just come back from the outside. They must have arrived just before her.
“Mom, Mom.” Now that their mother was back, San Bao, who was unsettled, began to make noises. She fidgeted about in Miao Jing’s arms. Miao Jing almost lost her grip on San Bao and dropped her to the ground.
Qiao Nan was worried. She walked forward to carry the chubby girl into her arms. “San Bao, you’re such a mischievous girl. Didn’t I tell you that you must not move about in grandma’s arms? Do you know how heavy you are now?”
If San Bao kept fidgeting, notwithstanding Miao Jing, even Qiao Nan, the mother, might not be able to have a firm grip on her. San Bao was quite strong and heavy.
“Gegege.” San Bao was happy that she was finally in her mother’s arms. She had a sweet smile on her face. Qiao Nan turned softhearted at the sight of her smile. “Mom, Mom, miss, miss.” San Bao kissed Qiao Nan loudly on her cheeks to express how much she missed her mama.
“Mom.”
“Mom!”
Da Bao and Er Bao were anxious. It might be a novel experience to be higher than the rest, but to babies, nothing was more important than their mother.
When they were faced with a fearful stranger, the first person that they would turn to for comfort was the person closest to them.
It was alright that their mother was holding their sister. They could stand by her side and hug her calf.
No matter how Da Bao and Er Bao fidgeted, Zhai Sheng had a firm grip on them.
Zhai Sheng intended to give them a hard time. It was alright that his daughter could not part with the mother as daughters were dainty and delicate. However, Da Bao and Er Bao were boys. Sons should be braver and be able to withstand hardships. They must be tough and strong. They could not learn to be independent if they stayed with their mother.
Miao Jing spent many years in the Zhai family and Zhai Sheng was her son. She knew what the men in the Zhai family were thinking about.
Miao Jing glared at her son to make him stop it. Zhai Sheng curled the corners of his lips and finally squatted down to release Da Bao and Er Bao for them to go to their mother before they started crying
As soon as Da Bao and Er Bao reached the ground, they slapped Zhai Sheng’s strong arms before they turned and sped to Qiao Nan.
They smacked him and turned to run to Qiao Nan in one fluid motion. They were agile and flexible, and one could not tell that they were actually less than one year old.
Da Bao and Er Bao finally relaxed after they had a firm grip on their mother’s calf. They pressed their lips tightly and stared intently at Zhai Sheng and Zhai Hua, the two bad guys!
“Hahaha…” Although Zhai Hua felt upset that she was scratched by San Bao, she felt much better that Da Bao and Er Bao gave Zhai Sheng two slaps. She laughed in amusement at Zhai Sheng.
