Chapter 2469: Ascertaining the Truth (1)
Thankfully, the triplets werent ordinary children, especially Da Bao. He looked at Sister Jiajia, who was in university, helplessly. Sister Jiajia, do you want to go to the mountains with us and our mom? There are a lot of older brothers and sisters in the mountains. Mom even said that we can do a lot of meaningful things.
As he said this, Da Bao sighed. Sister Jiajia, youre already a university student. Why are you still so childish and playful, always thinking about where to go? The three of us are five years old, but we are unlike you.
The three of them were still young. Why were they unlike Sister Jiajia, who was worried about where to have fun during the summer vacation?
They were busy. After accompanying their mom to deliver things to those older brothers and sisters, they even had to follow their dad to the army to train their bodies once they reached home.
Coupled with the school a.s.signments and tasks that their mom a.s.signed them, they were so busy. How would they have the time to think about where to have fun?
Sister Jiajia was already an adult. What should she do in the future if she was still playful?
After being berated by Da Bao, not only was Jiajia not angry, but she even laughed. Is that so? Ive really broken Da Baos heart. Since Da Bao invited me, shall I go and do good deeds with you?
Oh, her younger brothers and sister were so motivated. She only knew where to travel. By comparison, she was really useless.
Alright, since there was such a rare chance, she would follow her younger brothers and sister to do some meaningful things that wouldnt be a waste of time this summer vacation.
Oh, right. Sister Jiajia, Mom said before that while we are doing good deeds, its best not to say too much. We should do more and say less. Otherwise, those older brothers and sisters would feel uncomfortable in their hearts.
Da Bao added a reminder.
Jiajia laughed out loud. Da Bao was really worried about how unreliable she was.
No matter what, she was someone who was at their age once. Would she not understand how they would feel?
There was no need for Da Bao to say that. She knew her limits. Little Da Bao, is there anything else you would like to remind me about or get me to pay attention to? Dont worry. I will definitely remember the words you said and try my best not to do anything wrong. Of course, if I really do anything wrong, please feel free to correct me anytime. Is this alright?
The little Da Bao was happy to be trusted by Sister Jiajia. He puffed his chest and quietly said, Sister Jiajia, dont worry. I will definitely take care of you well and not let you make any mistakes.
Under the three childrens lead, Jiajia began to follow Qiao Nan around.
At first, Jiajia didnt feel much.
It was only later when Jiajia saw many thank-you letters sent to Qiao Nan from the children in the mountains who received Qiao Nans help did Jiajia feel that what she had done was meaningful.
Then, such a feeling escalated when Jiajia received a thank-you letter directed to her.
Initially, Jiajia felt that she had lost her goal after the college entrance examinations and didnt know what she wanted to do in the future.
However, after reading that letter, Jiajia had a preliminary idea in her heart. Then, she moved step by step in this direction.
As said before, Jiajia was not a three-year-old child. She had her own judgment and decision-making power.
When Zhai Hua realized her daughters plan, it was too late. She could only watch helplessly as Qiao Nan abducted Jiajia away.
She had worked so hard to create everything for Jiajia, but Jiajia didnt cherish it.
Jiajia was more willing to stay by Qiao Nans side and learn how to do charity. Jiajia had considered it well. After she graduated from university, Qiao Nan wouldnt be young anymore. She also had to be concerned about the triplets high school entrance examinations and college entrance examinations.
By then, she could become her aunts right-hand man and help her manage everything. That way, her aunts charity wouldnt be disturbed by anyone or anything and could go on.
In short, Jiajia decided to become Qiao Nans successor. She wanted to uphold Qiao Nans att.i.tude as a human being and make small contributions to society and the people.
She wasnt going after status or profits. She would just do her best.
It was because of this that Zhai Hua looked at Qiao Nan as if she was an enemy. Yes, an enemy. She was the enemy who s.n.a.t.c.hed her daughter away. She was the enemy who s.n.a.t.c.hed her successor away.
Every time Zhai Hua used this topic to accuse her, Qiao Nan could neither laugh nor cry. She didnt know how she should respond to Zhai Hua.
Could she say that she didnt do anything? Da Bao was the one who did a good deed by introducing this to her. She didnt mention anything to Jiajia or influence her with any words.
Sister Zhai Hua, I still think that your accusation of me is untrue. Im innocent. I didnt do anything. If theres really no other way, s.n.a.t.c.h Jiajia back?
She was not willing to be the scapegoat.
It was really hard for her to say in a few words how Sister Zhai Hua looked at her every day.
Zhai Hua snorted proudly. Whats the point of saying this now? You know Jiajias temper as well. She wont listen to me. She only listens to you. Furthermore, didnt you give birth to Da Bao? Arent the words that Da Bao said to Jiajia the same words that you said to Da Bao? Youre still the culprit.
Qiao Nan was speechless. She really couldnt say anything about Zhai Huas accusation. She even felt that Zhai Huas words werent wrong at all.
Could it be that she really s.n.a.t.c.hed Zhai Huas daughter away?
Dont struggle. Da Baos your son. As his aunt, I cant settle scores with him. I would naturally settle scores with you, his biological mother. A mother should pay a sons debt. Have you heard of this before?
Zhai Hua was very happy since it was rare that Qiao Nan was speechless.
Didnt Qiao Nan s.n.a.t.c.h her daughter away? So what if she was bullying Qiao Nan? She had to save herself some face in this family.
No, I havent. You made this up, right? Qiao Nans lips twitched. She wasnt well-educated, but that didnt mean that she had a low IQ. Zhai Hua was bullying others based on her high educational qualifications. That was distasteful.
Hua Hua, are you bullying Nan Nan again because of Jiajia?
Zhai Hua rolled her eyes and threw Qiao Nan a look as if asking, Is this old woman my biological mother or your biological mother?
Qiao Nan smiled in return as if saying, Even if she is your biological mother, she is my mother-in-law. Theres the word mother either way. What is the difference?
Its confirmed. Zhai Hua was the one her own biological mother picked up, whereas Qiao Nan was the biological daughter.
Mom, why are you up? Have you rested enough?
