1051 Sudden and Violent Hur
Miao Jing had the habit of was.h.i.+ng all her new clothes, besides jackets, before wearing.
Hence, after Miao Jing bought the clothes for Qiao Nan, she first cut away the tags before pa.s.sing them to the auntie to wash and dry. She would then gradually place them in the closet in Zhai Sheng’s bedroom.
Zhai Sheng was seldom at home. He only had a few clothes, such as T-s.h.i.+rts for exercising and army uniforms.
As such, Zhai Sheng’s big closet was almost empty.
After Qiao Nan’s clothes were added, there were gradually some feelings of life and vitality.
When Miao Jing knew that Qiao Nan would be staying at the house of the Zhai family today, she told Qiao Nan that she could simply look for the clothes in Zhai Sheng’s room and wear whatever she would love to.
Because of this, Zhai Hua immediately yelled that Qiao Nan was spoiled. “Take a look. Zhai Sheng’s closet doesn’t have many of his clothes, yet you have stuffed in so much of yours. These are multiple times more than that of Zhai Sheng. Earlier, you held me back when I wanted to talk and even insisted to store all these new clothes in my room. What for? Let me tell you. Previously, the situation of my closet was not any better than Zhai Sheng, but from today onward, I will slowly fill this closet with my clothes. Don’t store yours in mine. I can’t accommodate them!”
Without any reservation, Zhai Hua threw all the bags of new clothes that she bought for Qiao Nan today into Zhai Sheng’s room with a loud pop. When she saw that, Qiao Nan did not know whether to laugh or cry.
The Zhai family’s att.i.tudes were already so obvious. Regardless of how embarra.s.sed Qiao Nan felt, she had to brace herself and accept it.
When Qiao Nan opened Zhai Sheng’s closet and looked in… It was indeed so.
Zhai Sheng had too few clothes and the colors were simple. If one were to twist all of his clothes and pile them at a corner, they would not even enter one’s vision.
On the contrary, her collection of clothes included real silk dresses for summer, suits for spring and autumn, and thick coats for winter. They were individually segregated and hung up in a row tidily.
The moment she opened the closet door, Qiao Nan could smell the fragrant of laundry detergent from the clothes.
There was not only outer wear. When Qiao Nan opened the two drawers at the bottom, they were filled with her belongings.
The first drawer had bras of various colors and designs.
As one would expect, naturally, the second drawer below had different kinds of panties.
In two lifetimes, this was the first time Qiao Nan had the taste of being cared for and loved by someone at all times from the heart.
The greatest problem that other women faced in their lives was the mother and daughter-in-law relations.h.i.+p, while they were usually on the best term with their biological mother. Comparing herself to other women, Qiao Nan laughed.
She was not unfortunate. On the contrary, she was very blessed.
At least, in this lifetime, she had only lived for more than ten years with her mother. In her next few decades of life, she had to spend it with Miao Jing, this mother-in-law!
“You really came over. Why don’t you sleep in Zhai Sheng’s room directly?” Zhai Hua, who had just finished bathing, was drying her hair when she saw Qiao Nan bringing her clothes over. She looked puzzled. “I think you have studied too much. Why are you so inflexible?”
They would be collecting the marriage certificate in two months.
Honestly, even if Qiao Nan were to sleep in Zhai Sheng’s room and share a bed and blanket with Zhai Sheng when he was present, no one in the whole world was qualified to say ‘no’ to Qiao Nan.
Moreover, Zhai Sheng was not at home today and Qiao Nan would be having the room all to herself.
Besides, this was the house of the Zhai family. The Zhai family did not have the habit of telling outsiders about their private matters.
“Do you think others will believe it even if you don’t sleep in Zhai Sheng’s room?” In other people’s eyes, Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng were already bolted tightly.
Qiao Nan untied her hair and walked into the bathroom with her pajamas and panties. “I don’t want others to believe me. I just want you to believe me.” Sister Zhai Hua was already very good at talking. Now that she had fallen out of love, her words were too piercing when she flared up and spoke.
She did not wish to take issue with Sister Zhai Hua but also wanted to avoid such a situation.
Who would be happy to hear others badmouthing her every day?
If Sister Zhai Hua were to overdo it, she might not be able to control her temper if she was provoked by Sister Zhai Hua.
She definitely would have a head-on confrontation with someone had just fallen out of love.
“c.r.a.p.” Zhai Hua was a little unhappy. Qiao Nan knew that she had fallen out of love and needed someone to console her. Why did she have to expose her small thoughts? Could she not give her a chance to nag about it?
As Qiao Nan had just finished bathing, her black and waist-length hair was wrapped in a towel to absorb the water.
Zhai Hua, who did not have any experience of having long hair in her entire life, seemed to find it rare. “Is it very troublesome to grow such long hair? Have you thought of cutting it before?”
Qiao Nan stopped drying her hair. “I have thought of cutting it before but Brother Zhai persuaded me not to.”
Last month, her mother pulled her hair and hit her. She was furious and wanted to cut her hair. In the end, Brother Zhai stopped her.
Qiao Nan did not have much impression of what happened when she was drunk. When she was awake, Qiao Nan was still thinking about this idea.
Before she could cut her hair, she stopped due to a phone call from Brother Zhai. “Nan Nan, unless you cut a hairstyle that is similar to that of Zhai Hua, it is meaningless no matter how you cut it.”
Due to this call, Qiao Nan hesitated for a while. In the end, she changed her mind about the decision to cut her hair.
In her previous life, she once witnessed a couple fighting. That man’s hair was not long and similar to a clean haircut. Even so, that tough woman could still tug at and pull his hair. She was very skillful with her hands. That man was in so much pain that his face became distorted!
In her second lifetime, the only thing that Qiao Nan would decide as per her wish was her hairstyle.
Initially, she conceived the idea of cutting it as she was too furious. Qiao Nan did not dare to wear a hairstyle that was similar to that of Zhai Hua.
“In my impression, your hair was not that long in the past. At most, it was a little longer than your shoulder.” Since she was young, no one had really stopped her when she went to the hairdresser, not even…
“Yes. When Brother Zhai wooed me in the past, he said ‘he will marry me when my hair reaches the waist.”
“…” In that instant, Zhai Hua had a feeling that thousands of arrows were piercing through her heart, almost killing her. After making a few sounds of vomiting blood, she threw herself to the bed and pretended to be dead.
As Qiao Nan combed her hair and looked at how bubbly Zhai Hua was, she felt extremely amused and happy. Her hair almost reached her waist and Brother Zhai was going to marry her soon.
The beds in the house of the Zhai family were big enough. Each bed was more than enough to accommodate two people.
Most importantly, Zhai Hua’s sleeping posture was better than that of Miao Jing. Perhaps she had taken too huge a blow, but Zhai Hua did not turn or hug Qiao Nan as if the latter was a bolster.
As such, on the night of the day before the Lunar New Year’s eve, Qiao Nan slept extremely well. She was in good spirits when she woke up the next day.
