Chapter 1343 A Pile of Luxury Goods

If it was the former reason, she could certainly correct that with some nurturing. If it was the latter reason, she should also be able to change that if she were to put in more effort.

As soon as Miao Jing had such thoughts, news of Qiao Nan’s pregnancy immediately followed.

Miao Jing did not mind buying Qiao Nan a lot of maternity clothes. She further did not mind that they would only be worn for ten months. However, when Qiao Nan was in the early stage of her pregnancy, she almost fainted and had to be sent to the hospital. The Zhai family was very anxious and afraid that Qiao Nan would be tired out, and this would harm the children in her womb.

If it was possible, Miao Jing could not wait to request leave of absence for Qiao Nan such that Qiao Nan could cast everything, including studies and social practice, aside.

After dragging so for long, the triplets already knew how to run around. As the mother, Qiao Nan could hardly squeeze out any time and when she did, it was barely enough for her three children. As such, she did not have time to go shopping at all.

Due to Qiao Nan’s behavior, she had become a model daughter-in-law of the quad in the military area of the capital.

Zhai Sheng was a soldier and he was very seldom at home. Which elder would want their daughter-in-law to doll up prettily, dress up coquettishly, and go out when their son was not around? Did she want to their son’s behavior of seldom being at home?

Look at the young daughter-in-law of the Zhai family. She was very young but mature in her behavior. Besides going to school, she was always home to take care of the children. They had never seen her going out. She was also dressed very simply. Even elders like them who disliked extravagance felt that this child was a little over the top. She should actually dote on herself more.

She had to take care of studies and children, was enrolled in a good school like Peking University, and even brought home scholars.h.i.+p-prizes all the time.

This was such a good child. If one were to say that she was involved in some hanky-panky stuff when Zhai Sheng was not at home, they would never believe it. If they were to find a daughter-in-law, they had to find someone like the daughter-in-law of the Zhai family, who behaved with such propriety.

However, to Qiao Nan, who was engrossed in her books and oblivious to such trivial externalities, these ‘legendary rumors’ were all superficial clouds. She did not listen to any of it.

After Zhai Hua told her the information, she did not feel so guilty to accept the gifts from the Tian family. Hu Fen also knew her limits and would not go overboard in her gifts. Hence, it was still acceptable to Qiao Nan.

Qiao Nan did not want to be wasteful. As such, heeding Miao Jing’s advice, when she was available, she would begin to research the load of cosmetic products given to her by the Tian family.

Regarding makeup, although Qiao Nan felt that she did not have time to partic.i.p.ate in a special interest cla.s.s, she could buy some books and self-learn.

As for skincare, although one had not eaten pork, they would have seen a pig running away.

Furthermore, the Qiao Zijin in her previous life loved all these things. After buying a load of them, she would occasionally re-package the skincare products that she disliked. Thereafter, she would bring them to Qiao Nan in a huge and beautiful basket of them and said that she specially bought them for Qiao Nan and hoped that Qiao Nan could maintain her youth and make herself look pretty.

Ding Jiayi then used this situation as an excuse to boldly exploit Qiao Nan to subsidize Qiao Zijin’s expenses without any feelings of guilt. She felt that Qiao Nan had no reason to resist and retaliate.

Qiao Nan cast all these ‘former happenings’ aside. She thought that she had left all these past life happenings behind after being reborn for so many years. Unexpectedly, all these past sufferings would appear each time she encountered a similar situation.

Judging by that, she had taken all these past issues more seriously than she had thought. She had been very aggrieved.

“Junior Qiao.”

“Senior Xu? Why did you come to school today? I heard that your company is very tied up recently?” Qiao Nan was pleasantly surprised when she saw Xu Shengnan in school again. It was not any less than those who met their favorite celebrities in the streets. “I heard that your company is very busy and the employees have been working overtime. Senior Xu, congratulations. It seems that you can almost make your down-payment for a house in the capital this year.”

Xu Shengnan was glowing happily. As a country b.u.mpkin who came to the capital from the countryside, she was going to own a house in the capital after working for less than three years. That was definitely a matter that would bring glory to her ancestors in her hometown.

Her mother had just made a call to her a few days ago. All the villagers in her hometown said that even raising ten sons could not compare to one successful daughter from the Xu family. Be it raising a son or a daughter, most importantly, the child had to be as smart and capable as the daughter of the Xu family to be able to work and stay in the capital.

Although Xu Shengnan seldom returned home nowadays and she could only stay home for a short period of time, she had become the most successful one in her hometown.

Sigh! This time, when she returned to her hometown, all those aunties came knocking on her door. She could barely tolerate their affectionate behavior.

For her peers, it was just the beginning where they had to go through the pain and suffering, whereas she had already been through most of it. At the thought of this, Xu Shengnan could not help feeling grateful to Qiao Nan. She had also mentioned Qiao Nan to her parents before. Even her closest kin could not help commenting that this junior of hers was simply the greatest benefactor of her life.

Although she was also grateful to her senior c.u.m current boss, without Qiao Nan, she might never have encountered this opportunity in her entire life. Xu Shengnan was clear of the restrictions that she faced in her course of study. A company like that of Gao Yan seldom recruited employees of her kind. The recruitment headcount was much lesser than other companies; it was half the usual headcount or even less.

After missing this opportune time, she would have no fate with Senior Gao Yan’s company no matter how capable she was. It would just be a pa.s.sing.

Fortunately, due to Junior Qiao, this benefactor, she met the right company and the right boss at the right time. That ushered in the spring in her life and the peak in her career.

“The school specially invited me. The school contacted my boss and he delegated it to me.” At this very moment, it was not enough to use ‘proud and glowing’ to describe Xu Shengnan. “You are aware too. When our company collaborated with the Tian company, it immediately progressed to the next level and successfully pa.s.sed the start-up stage. All the projects and businesses of the company went on track and became reputable. The school contacted my boss, requesting for a few interns.”

Xu Shengnan did not graduate with honors.

However, today, Xu Shengnan did not feel that she was doing worse than schoolmates who had received honors.
