Chapter 2452: Stressful (2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jiajia liked younger siblings. However, she only liked those from her family. She wasn’t pa.s.sionate about other children.
It was precisely because of this, and coupled with the fact that Jiajia was a high school student, that Zhai Hua never let anyone with children come over, lest they brought their children along and disturbed Jiajia studying.
This was the tacit understanding between the mother-daughter pair. Jiajia believed that if there was no other reason, her mom shouldn’t break this tacit understanding.
“Go in and take a look.” Zhai Hua gave a bad smile.
Jiajia had an inexplicable look. However, after listening to Zhai Hua’s words, she walked in.
Without waiting for Jiajia to see clearly, a short figure ran toward her and hugged her thigh. “Sister Jiajia, hug. Kiss.”
“San Bao?” Surprised, Jiajia shouted. Then, she rubbed her eyes hard. Was she hallucinating as she missed her young siblings too much?
San Bao twisted her body. “Hug. Kiss.” As for carrying her, that was better left to her dad.
“It’s really San Bao!” The warm and fuzzy feeling on her thigh wouldn’t be wrong. Jiajia squatted, hugged San Bao’s fleshy body, and kissed her on the face twice. “San Bao, when did you come here? Why didn’t you let me know?”
San Bao tilted her head and her two braids moved. “I don’t remember.” She didn’t remember when she went there. She only knew that she seemed to be there for a long time.
There was no choice. Children at San Bao’s age had no concept of time at all.
It wasn’t important. What was more important was that Jiajia could see her favorite and cute younger siblings when she reached home. She was so happy. “San Bao, let’s go to my room. I’ve prepared a lot of pretty dresses for you.”
“Yes.” San Bao nodded and obediently let Jiajia hold her hand. She would go wherever Jiajia wanted her to go. Jiajia liked her even more because of her obedience.
Zhai Hua was jealous. One was her own daughter and the other was her youngest niece. Zhai Hua didn’t know who she should be jealous of more.
She knew that her daughter didn’t listen to her words and her niece despised her kisses. However, these two played very well with each other. Was she that detestable?
Those were just thoughts. It was impossible for Zhai Hua to be calculative with her daughter and niece because of these trivial matters.
Seeing that Jiajia brought San Bao away, Qiao Nan said to Zhai Hua helplessly, “Sister Zhai Hua, I know you’re doing business recently. It’s not hard for you to earn money. However, it’s better to cherish things more. Don’t you think so?”
Speaking of San Bao’s clothes, Qiao Nan had a headache.
It was difficult for her to have a daughter. Qiao Nan also wished to dress San Bao up beautifully, so she was willing to buy small clothes and dresses.
It was just that Qiao Nan’s accustomed consumption habits didn’t allow her to acc.u.mulate too many goods.
Moreover, the triplets were just two years old. They would change as they grew older. They might not be able to wear the clothes that were bought this year in the second half of the year, let alone next year.
As such, Qiao Nan usually just prepared three or four outfits for San Bao per season, and she felt that this was more than enough.
Qiao Nan had self-control, but Miao Jing didn’t.
Zhai Yaohui’s retirement salary was all in Miao Jing’s hands. These two elders weren’t lacking money. As such, Miao Jing liked to keep buying things. Among the three children, San Bao became Miao Jing’s focal point.
After realizing her mother-in-law, Miao Jing, was quite a spendthrift, Qiao Nan became smart and stopped buying clothes herself, lest there were new clothes that San Bao had not even worn before as she had outgrown them.
Who knew that after thinking of ways to control the one at home, there was a Jiajia far away in Ping Cheng who couldn’t control herself.
What troubled Qiao Nan was that Zhai Hua didn’t pamper Jiajia in an ordinary way.
Jiajia was a high school student. Where would she have so much money?
Wasn’t it all Zhai Hua’s money that Jiajia used to buy clothes for San Bao? She obviously knew that Jiajia was a shopaholic. However, she still gave her the money freely. If San Bao wasn’t her biological daughter, she really wanted to say that since they wanted to waste money, they might as well do good deeds with her together.
San Bao had so many clothes that she couldn’t wear them all. Those children in the mountains didn’t even have winter wear.
Qiao Nan, who had just learned about the children’s situation in the mountains, had a headache when she saw the current situation. She resented Zhai Hua for spoiling Jiajia too much. She had to cultivate Jiajia’s consumption habits.
Zhai Hua laughed. “You’re happy that Jiajia spent money on your daughter, right? Do you know what Jiajia got me for Mother’s Day? A s.h.i.+rt!”
Zhai Hua liked the Mother’s Day present her daughter gave her. She especially liked it since it was a white s.h.i.+rt.
The problem was that among the bags Jiajia was holding at that time, only one was for herself. The others were prepared for the three children.
Since it was Mother’s Day, shouldn’t she be Jiajia’s main target audience?
Once she saw the difference in bags, Zhai Hua felt that perhaps she was a tag-along. She was really sad…
Others moved their mouths but not their hands. Zhai Hua didn’t even move her mouth when it came to Jiajia. What else could Qiao Nan say? Well, as long as Zhai Hua and Jiajia were happy.
San Bao wasn’t the only one who was ‘abducted’ by Jiajia. Very quickly, Da Bao and Er Bao were taken away by Jiajia as well.
Undoubtedly, Jiajia bought the most things for San Bao. However, she had never forgotten Da Bao and Er Bao, her two cute younger brothers. She bought them little overalls, little hats, and little toy cars. To be honest, Jiajia bought a lot of things.
Thankfully, Zhai Hua brought Jiajia back to the Zhai family. Otherwise, based on Jiajia’s ability to stock things up, things would have to be piled until there was nowhere to put them.
Jiajia knew that Qiao Nan had something to do when she came to Ping Cheng. She also knew that she was about done and would return to the capital the next day after letting her younger siblings play with her today. Jiajia felt a little regretful but knew that this wasn’t bad either.
Even if her younger siblings didn’t return to the capital, she had to go back to school to continue studying.
It was alright. When the winter vacation was here, she would at least have seven days and could go to the capital to play with them.
Even during the winter vacation, Zhai Hua would bring Jiajia back to her family in the capital to celebrate the new year together. To Jiajia, the new year atmosphere was very strong until now and it was worth looking forward to.
On this day, Zhai Hua continued doing business while Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng acted as the parents of four children and brought them out to play.
