Chapter 2204: Very Good Taste
Since it was highly unlikely for her, the grandma, to witness this, Zhai Sheng, as the triplets’ father, would naturally have the chance. Sons had to be groomed. As such, she had to get Zhai Sheng to be more attentive toward San Bao, his daughter. He must not let San Bao marry the wrong man like her aunt.
Qiao Nan touched Er Bao’s soft head and said, “Mom, you’re thinking too far ahead. Don’t worry. I feel that our triplets will have a very good taste once they grow up.” In her dream, although she didn’t see the triplets get married and hug any grandchildren, she understood too clearly what kind of person her daughter, San Bao, was.
Her daughter looked like her, but her thoughts were more like her father’s. In terms of temperament, she was the female version of Zhai Sheng. Qiao Nan didn’t think that her daughter would be on the losing end when she fell in love in the future.
“That’s true. Our San Bao is smart. She also has two older brothers by her side to protect her. Nobody can think of bullying her. Isn’t that right, San Bao?” After listening to her grandma’s words, San Bao, who was asleep, opened her small mouth and yawned. She rubbed her head against her arms and continued to sleep after finding a comfortable spot.
It was easy to take care of a sleeping child. She was even as cute as an angel.
“Uncle, Aunt, where are my younger siblings?” Speak of the devil. Zhai Sheng was the one who picked them up. Once they got out of the car, Jiajia didn’t even care about her luggage. She handed them to her mom and Zhai Sheng and rushed in. It was obviously the first time that she was here. However, she didn’t find the surroundings unfamiliar. “Hello, Auntie. Where are my aunt and the younger siblings?”
The auntie long knew that there was a child like Jiajia in the Zhai family. “They are upstairs. The first room after you turn right. You’ll be able to see it once you’re up. Oh, right. If you want to carry the children, remember to wash your hands first.” Nobody could be sloppy regarding this.
Jiajia thought for a while and said, “I’ll go up after removing my sweater and washing my hands.” She was afraid that after seeing the younger siblings, she wouldn’t be able to control herself and wanted to hug them without washing her hands.
Zhai Hua, who was following behind with the luggage, rolled her eyes. “I didn’t expect Jiajia to like the younger siblings that much. She’s simply obsessed with them.” After all, they were physically far apart and it had been three months. Zhai Hua always thought that Jiajia’s passion for the younger siblings would fade a little. Who knew that it didn’t but increased instead?
Anyway, after being mother and daughter with Jiajia for so many years, Zhai Hua hadn’t seen Jiajia cherish her, the biological mother, like how she was cherishing the younger siblings now. After making this comparison, Zhai Hua felt sour in her heart. Zhai Hua couldn’t help but think that Jiajia would be married and have a child ten years later. By then, Jiajia’s attention would be on her son-in-law and grandchildren. Wouldn’t she be jealous to death?
“Aunt, I’m here.” Jiajia pushed open the door gently and lowered her volume. “Are the siblings awake or asleep?”
“They’re sleeping soundly.” Miao Jing smiled and looked at Jiajia, who seemed to have grown taller. “Jiajia, you’re really like your mom. The daughters from our family all have long legs.”
“Grandma.” Jiajia obediently addressed her and looked at the child in Miao Jing’s arms. “Grandma, is this my younger sister?” Her fragrant and soft sister?
Knowing that Jiajia cared about the triplets, Miao Jing still had the consciousness that she was a grandma in front of Jiajia. She placed San Bao in Jiajia’s arms. “Jiajia is so smart. This is your younger sister. Her nickname is San Bao and her name is Zhai Yu.” She was a precious child of the Zhai family.
“How soft.” When she managed to hug her, Jiajia panicked. “Grandma, why is she so soft? Are the younger brothers like that too?” She was so soft that it scared her. It was as if she had no bones.
“Newborns are all like that. Oh, right. Support San Bao’s head with one hand and carry her from the buttocks with the other. She’ll be fine then.” Miao Jing guided Jiajia on how to carry the child. “You’re so smart to have learned it so quickly. Look how good you’re at carrying her.”
The soft little sister was in her arms. Jiajia was extremely happy. “That’s true. Aunt, grandma, she smells so fragrant.” Jiajia took a deep breath and recognized the smell that belonged only to babies. She lowered her head and couldn’t help but kiss the back of San Bao’s hand. “Her hand is so small and her skin is so smooth and slippery. So this is how babies are like.”
Seeing that Jiajia was so engrossed, Miao Jing only found it funny. “I know you cherish your younger siblings a lot. Come back more often if you’re free in the future. The next time you see them, they might even know how to sit, run, and call you sister.”
After hearing this, not only did Jiajia not become happy, but she even frowned. “Do they grow up that fast?” She still wanted to teach them personally how to address her as ‘sister’. But based on her grandma’s words, it seemed that her younger siblings would grow up very quickly?
“That’s right.” Zhai Hua also looked at the triplets in the house curiously. “Think about yourself. When you were born, you were the same size as the sister in your hands. Now, you’ve grown up. Children grow up quickly.” As she said this, Zhai Hua missed those days. It was as if it was just yesterday that she was still breastfeeding Jiajia. “Our family really has triplets now. This is something that hasn’t happened before. Is this inherited from the Qiao family?”
How rare. For a family like them, they only complained that they had too few children. They wouldn’t complain that there wasn’t enough capital to raise them up.
“Yes. My father told me that my grandpa was the youngest of the triplets.” She handed Da Bao to Zhai Hua and carried Er Bao on her own. She was sincerely thankful that there were enough children in the family. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be enough to go about. “Jiajia, it’s fine to carry her for a while. You can place San Bao on the bed now to sleep. If she gets used to being carried for a long time, she wouldn’t sleep in the future when no one is carrying her.” Even though she gave birth only at an older age, Qiao Nan never relaxed in terms of educating the triplets. She was still like before and wouldn’t let them have any bad habits.
Jiajia didn’t understand. “So be it. I’m happy to carry her.”
Zhai Hua looked at Jiajia in a bad temper. “It’s one matter that you’re happy to carry her. After the winter vacation is over, you’ll head back to Ping Cheng to study. However, you would have brought out a bad habit in them. When we leave then, are you prepared for your aunt to become Nezha and grow three heads and six limbs?” Without three heads and six limbs, how would she be able to coax these three little ancestors well at the same time?
Jiajia stuck out her tongue and knew where she went wrong. “Alright, I won’t give Aunt any trouble. San Bao, sleep well and grow up quickly. When you grow up, I’ll buy you pretty dresses and braid your hair nicely.”
