1286 She Has a Good Temper

After saying his last sentence, Tian Shouxin simply hung up the phone.

This phone call was considered his last reminder to his elder brother out of kindness. Henceforth, they were no longer brothers. If Tian Shouyi were to cause any harm to Dongzi or him, he would retaliate and not show any mercy toward Tian Shouyi anymore.

At the thought that the money Tian Shouyi spent on wine and pleasure recently was all conned from his son, Tian Shouxin’s eyes turned gloomy. He felt that he could not just be all talk and no action.

It was not going to be so easy to con his money. He would make Tian Shouyi repay him all his money the same way that Tian Shouyi conned his family.

“What a surprise, Qiao Nan!” Xu Shengnan visited the place of Qiao Nan’s in-law as she had long wanted to see Qiao Nan. When she was there, she realized that her previous worries for Qiao Nan were all unfounded.

After all, Xu Shengnan had lived in the capital for a few years. As soon as she heard the area of Qiao Nan’s residence, she sensed that this junior of hers was not a simple character. Only the rich and influential stayed in this area. Could her junior be the second generation of the government officials?

To her absolute surprise, Xu Shengnan’s eyes turned into heart shapes when she saw a row of little ones when she arrived at the Zhai family’s residence. “You gave birth to all three of them? Three, all three?!”

Chubby little faces, watery big eyes, red and tender little mouths and round and stout bodies. They even carried a tinge of milk fragrance.

When the triplets stared at her in this manner, Xu Shengnan felt her heart melt into a puddle of water. “You’re awful. Why don’t you tell me that you have three children? As a senior, I didn’t even prepare any present. What if the children remember this and dislike me in the future?”

Qiao Nan touched the three little ones lying on her lap. “If you really have such concern and worry, it’s easy to resolve them. It’s not as if you are visiting me only for once. Remember. You have to give us double the presents to make it up to them.” Double the presents for the three children. “Senior Xu, I’m afraid one month of your salary will be gone when that time comes.”

Xu Shengnan was staring at the three children. “If one month of salary is gone, so be it. I have colleagues in the office who are mothers too. I heard from them that children’s stuff is very costly. Junior, you’re so blessed. Isn’t there a national family planning policy? Why do you have two sons and one daughter? Are they triplets?”

The triplets were about the same height. One could not completely say that the three adorable faces looked alike. Nevertheless, there were many similarities among them.

“Yes, triplets.” Qiao Nan nodded proudly. “Da Bao, Er Bao, San Bao, call auntie.”

The triplets had been observing Xu Shengnan for a long time. They seemed to realize that their mother was on quite good terms with this auntie. After enduring for a while, the three children then addressed ‘auntie’.

“Aye!” This greeting from the triplets made Xu Shengnan’s heart flutter and bones crumble. “Come, Da Bao, Er Bao, San Bao, let auntie carry you.”

The triplets blinked their eyes and smiled at Xu Shengnan. At the sight of them smiling, Xu Shengnan thought that she could definitely get to carry the three soft and chubby babies. Who would have known that the triplets unanimously escaped to the side of their grandmother, while they continued to smile at Xu Shengnan.

“c.r.a.p! They are using the tactic of feinting? First, they smiled to make me let down my guard. When I was feeling happy, they escaped?” Xu Shengnan was dumbfounded. She felt that her intelligence had been challenged by these three one-year-old kids who did not even know how to speak properly yet. The way they walked was completely copied from Donald Duck. She had been harshly mangled by them.

Qiao Nan smiled, embarra.s.sed. This was not the first time that she heard others commenting that the triplets were as cunning and slippery as eels. “Perhaps they inherited their father’s genes?”

Anyway, she definitely did not behave like that when she was a child.

If she had that natural capability, would she have been so badly bullied by Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin?

“Their father?” What kind of person was that? The triplets were so capable just relying on his genes alone? Xu Shengnan expressed that this was completely beyond her imagination.

“My husband is a soldier.” Since the triplets did not inherit the bravery and wit from her, it could only be from their father.

Xu Shengnan lifted the corners of her lips in shock. “You… are the wife of a military man?” You were just a twenty-two-year-old young military wife who was still in college. “What? Your man is too shameless. He has smeared the name of our soldiers. How can he bear to lay his vicious hands on you? He’s poisoning the buds of our motherland. How old were you when he started hitting on you?”

That soldier ruffian could not simply kidnap Qiao Nan to collect the marriage certificate during their first meeting, just as she reached the legal age of marriage. Nothing so absurd would happen in this world.

Xu Shengnan sounded a little impolite. Fortunately, Miao Jing had a good temper. Otherwise, she would certainly flare up.

Thankfully, it was also because Miao Jing was on very good terms with Qiao Nan.

When she found out that Qiao Nan was her son’s young girlfriend, Miao Jing’s first reaction and thoughts were exactly the same as that of Xu Shengnan now. She was also disdainful that Zhai Sheng was so shameless.

Fortunately, Xu Shengnan very quickly remembered that this was the house of Qiao Nan’s in-laws and not her maternal family. Hence, the auntie surrounded by the triplets now was most likely Qiao Nan’s mother-in-law, who gave birth to the ruffian that she just spoke of.

Xu Shengnan looked embarra.s.sed as she smiled at Miao Jing. “Auntie, I have always been very frank in my words. I am not as sensible as my junior. Please don’t take issue with me. I don’t mean any harm.”

Miao Jing kissed the soft hair on the top of Er Bao’s head. “It’s okay. Certainly, this is the truth.” These words carried some humor so that Xu Shengnan would not feel so nervous.

If her son had not played rogue and did something shameless, where would such beautiful and adorable grandchildren come from?

All those shameless means of her son were worth praises after having these three children.

Miao Jing was not angered and Xu Shengnan heaved a sigh of relief. She sat beside Qiao Nan and whispered to the latter. “Your mother-in-law seems quite polite and nice. She did not give me any black face although I spoke about her son in this manner.”
