1283 A Face Full of Saliva
“Uncle, uncle-in-law?” San Bao twisted her tongue. When she spoke the last word ‘law’, she spat on Qiao Nan’s face. Qiao Nan wiped her face. “San Bao, with you around, it will rain in our house.” Was she being filial and showing her respect with saliva?
“Yes, uncle-in-law. When your uncle-in-law and auntie are married, auntie will give birth to a younger brother or sister for you to play with.” To play with you!
All of a sudden, San Bao’s eyes lit up brightly.
San Bao could vaguely sense that she was the youngest one in the family now. Very soon, a child younger than her was going to appear and address her as the elder sister. How could San Bao not feel happy? Although she did not have much knowledge of this, she very much welcomed a child younger than her into the family.
“Right, San Bao is going to have a younger sister or brother soon.” Miao Jing was smiling happily like a flower. Her daughter was going to get married. Would her maternal grandchild be far away? “I have to break this good news to the old master and your dad as soon as they come home. Haha, our family’s lady is finally getting married!”
This was such exhilarating news worth spreading and celebrating!
Zhai Hua, who was initially quite happy, almost froze and pulled a long face when she heard her mother. It was as if she was left on the shelves and had finally found one Tian Dong, a white knight who was willing to rescue her. She snorted and said, “I won’t take issue with you. You are not aware of what happened. Qiu Chenxi eventually followed me to the Tian family’s residence. She, very fortunately, witnessed Tian Dong’s deep feelings for me and how he proposed.”
She did not care. Anyway, Tian Dong had been secretly in love with her for more than twenty years, and he had thought of marrying her for ten years.
She was not a woman without any charm. In fact, she was a woman with great charm!
Tian Dong’s feelings toward Zhai Hua were enough to make Zhai Hua feel proud for the rest of her life.
This evening, Qiao Nan received Zhai Sheng’s phone call. She then found out that her husband had done a lot in this matter.
At the beginning, Zhai Sheng did not see eye to eye with Tian Dong. Nevertheless, when Tian Dong did not appear for a long time this year, Zhai Sheng was the only one in the entire Zhai family who maintained his silence and thought most highly of Tian Dong. He felt that Tian Dong was not the type of person who liked to toy with other people’s feelings.
The elder son of the Tian family was an ambitious one. However, the Zhai family left others a very deep impression of being fair and honest. The elder son of the Tian family felt that if his only nephew married the lady from the Zhai family, the Zhai family might not help the Tian family. On the contrary, if the Tian family were to commit any wrongdoing, the Zhai family would place justice above loyalty to one’s family and be the first to punish them.
He dared not have such an in-law family.
On the contrary, the s.h.i.+ family’s character was entirely opposite to that of the Zhai family. He was very fond of the s.h.i.+ family’s character.
As such, when he found out that his younger brother favored Zhai Hua more, he secretly contacted Old Master s.h.i.+. He wanted to be the bridge between Tian Dong and Qiu Chenxi.
Qiao Nan heard about the subsequent matters that happened.
The elder son of the Tian family secretly stirred up problems for his younger brother’s business and made his nephew busy. He also spurred his old, foolish, and sick father to insist on having the second son and wife take care of him. As a result, the couple also took ill.
This matter had been covered up very well. Tian Dong did not have any time to look for Zhai Hua at all. Unfortunately, Zhai Hua, who was not in the know, became angry at him. Occasionally, when Tian Dong was feeling very vexed, he felt very disheartened that Zhai Hua did not take any initiative to show concern for him.
The elder son of the Tian family wanted to create such a misunderstanding between Tian Dong and Zhai Hua. Both were at the age whereby they were young and strong-minded, and neither would give in. Once the two were spiting each other and neither took the initiative to relent, they would fall out no matter how close they had previously been.
At this juncture, Qiu Chenxi would appear to show concern and support for Tian Dong in a gentle and gracious way. If Tian Dong did not have a change of heart and get together with Qiu Chenxi after some time, the elder son of the Tian family expressed that he would address Tian Dong as the elder uncle instead.
No one needed to question why he was so certain about the effectiveness of this poly. It was not because of other reasons. He had used this method a long ago. The first person that he tested this method’s feasibility was not others but his only daughter.
Tian Tian had been doted upon since she was a child. When she was studying in college, she found herself a boyfriend and the two of them were very close. They had promised each other to get married as soon as they graduated, and they would marry no one else but each other. At that time, they were seen as a model couple in college.
However, the elder son of the Tian family was not satisfied with this college student. Besides having a good college degree, his family background was not spectacular at all. Furthermore, he already had a potential son-in-law in mind.
Unfortunately, the other party was fat and ugly and Tian Tian was not fond of him. As such, she was more determined to be together with her boyfriend.
Thereafter, the elder son of the Tian family used this method to separate Tian Tian and her boyfriend. He even successfully made Tian Tian marry the son-in-law that he wanted.
However, he was unaware that this marriage that he was smug about had, in fact, brought him many troubles.
Tian Tian was not stupid. In the early years, she was young and strong-tempered. As such, she had been temporarily deceived. Time gradually pa.s.sed, and she had finally realized.
When the elder son of the Tian family used this method on Tian Dong again, Tian Tian completely figured this out.
It could be said that without Zhai Sheng’s phone call and Tian Tian’s reminder, perhaps the elder son of the Tian family would have succeeded in this ploy once again.
When Qiao Nan was communicating with Zhai Sheng, Tian Dong also made a call to Tian Tian to thank her. “Sister, thank you. If not for you, I nearly…” He never once thought that he would experience what his father had been through before.
Twenty years had pa.s.sed. Seemingly, his grandfather’s and elder uncle’s temperaments and barbaric nature did not change at all. They were more selfish and scary than businessmen like him. They only thought of themselves and no one else. The so-called kins.h.i.+p was just tools that they used to climb up the social ladder.
Tian Dong also understood why the old master liked his elder son and not his second son so much.
It was not because of other reasons. His elder son had totally inherited his character and way of dealing with things and people. He was clearly another Old Master Tian. Who would not be fond of themselves?
“Don’t mention it.” On the phone, Tian Tian’s voice sounded a little cold but also pleased. She was pleased not because Tian Dong had averted his father’s ploy but because her father’s plan had failed and he was going to be down on luck. “You should understand my thoughts. Remember. Don’t let him have a good life. As long as his life is not good, I will take it that you are thanking me.”
Tian Tian was filled with hate. Her biological father was the person that she hated most in her entire life.
Given their relations.h.i.+p, no matter how much Tian Tian hated him, she could not do anything concrete to take revenge on her father.
However, if she did not do anything and continue to watch her father living a happy and satisfying life every day, she would be choked by the feelings of pain and torture every night. Her father sold other people to fulfill his own life and wishes.
