Chapter 1737: Three Forces
Chapter 1737: Three Forces
"You should just keep in mind that there's nothing wrong with your future mother-in-law's money. Once you marry into the family, you can rest assured and just take as much money as she is willing to give you to spend. When that time comes, don't forget about how many ideas your mom has given you now."
She also wanted to live a life where she had an endless source of money to spend. Unfortunately, she no longer had a chance to do so in this lifetime. Her daughter might be able to get money from Qiao Nan, but there was a limit to how filial her daughter could be to her and how much money she could share with her.
But that did not matter. Once Qiao Nan handed whatever she had over to her children, would Qiao Nan still be able to decide on how Yuanyuan should show her filial piety toward her? She had to take good care of her health so that she could live a long life. Even if it had come a few years too late, she would still be able to enjoy Qiao Nan's wealth during her lifetime.
Ma Yuanyuan's gaze grew serious. "Don't worry, Mom. I'll make sure to work hard. Mom, you're the one who treats me the best in this entire world. I definitely won't forget about you. I know you want the best for me, and you're doing everything for my good."
If she had known that being together with Zhai Yi would bring so many benefits to her and that she would be part of the upper class, she would never have felt so repulsed toward Zhai Yi. Neither would she have started dating Gao Feng. Zhai Yi's background was truly exceptional. She would have to put in her utmost effort.
Otherwise, such an outstanding person like Zhai Yi would definitely be picky when choosing his other half. If she did not meet Zhai Yi's requirements, that blissful life would not be hers.
"Mom, I understand your painstaking efforts. I won't do anything to disappoint you in the future. You did tell me about what Zhai Yi is like as a person and what kind of temperament he has. But at that time, I was upset about you taking things into your own hands and deciding on my behalf how my life should be and who my future partner should be. That was why I didn't take you seriously. I'll definitely remember whatever you've taught me in the future. I'll work hard to become the kind of young lady that Zhai Yi likes. Mom, I'll definitely succeed."
Today, their family would leave the capital in dismay. But one day, she would return with her head held high.
Hearing Ma Yuanyuan's determination, Qiu Chenxi was overjoyed. "Now that you've said that, I know that all my efforts in the past were not in vain. You're still young, and Zhai Yi hasn't graduated from university yet. As long as you're willing to work hard, there is still time. I believe in you. You'll definitely succeed in anything you put your mind to."
"Yes."
The mother and daughter had a good chat and were both very enthusiastic, but they had no idea that their whole family was suddenly being transferred out of the capital because they had set their sights on Zhai Yi.
If Qiu Chenxi and her daughter had chosen to live down-to-earth lives, 'outsiders' would not even care about the Ma family or bother to learn more about them. The more the mother and daughter desired to do so, the further away would the Ma family's wish of returning to the capital be.
Knowing that the Ma family was finally leaving the capital with Qiu Chenxi and her daughter and were even bringing Qi Minlan along, Qiao Nan finally breathed a sigh of relief. "The triplets haven't grown up fully yet, but there are already too many people eyeing on them. Brother Zhai, I'm suddenly worried about our daughter. What should we do?"
Qiao Nan was afraid that a young lady like San Bao would be easily taken advantage of.
"Don't overthink it. You're just scaring yourself." As an only daughter, it was only natural that Zhai Sheng placed great importance on San Bao. Even if Zhai Sheng did not pay as much attention to San Bao as other fathers did to their daughters, who treated their daughters like their lovers, Zhai Sheng's love for San Bao was no less than other father's.
Even if the other party was a good and responsible man, Zhai Sheng had the urge to beat up whichever rascal that wanted to abduct his daughter. He could totally imagine a dirty rascal who had bad intentions and wanted to lie to San Bao like how Wei De had done at that time. Zhai Sheng chuckled. He had never met anyone who was so brave and bold.
If he were really to meet someone like that, only then would he know in detail how he would deal with that person.
Leaning in Zhai Sheng's embrace, Qiao Nan could only try to comfort herself. "I do hope that I'm just overthinking. After all, both Da Bao and Er Bao have already experienced it. Do you think San Bao will be able to avoid it?"
Zhai Sheng patted Qiao Nan's back and sneered even more coldly. "Nan Nan, you're really overthinking this. Among all the children, other than your senior who also has a daughter, San Bao is the only female. If San Bao were to have a boyfriend, don't you think that all those rascals will dig through the other party's family background and do a thorough check?"
Those rascals whom they had raised were all wolf cubs. There were vicious ones, fierce ones, and impulsive ones. They had all sorts of differing tempers. If anyone wanted to abduct a young lady from the Zhai family, they would really have to consider it carefully and think about whether they had any lives to spare and whether their bodies would be able to bear it.
San Bao was the only rose among the thorns. Not only did all the parents cherish her, but they also all taught their sons to fight back on their sister's behalf if anyone were to bully her. No matter what happened, they would not have to worry as long as they did not kill the other party. If the matter got too serious, their parents would take responsibility for everything.
As long as they were standing up for San Bao, not only would they not get in trouble, but they would also be lauded for their good work and rewarded with a good meal! If they performed well, they would even be able to make a request for a reward!
With Zhai Sheng's reminder, Qiao Nan turned sullen. "Brother Zhai, now that you're saying that, I'm worried that San Bao might never find a boyfriend. Even if she finds one, I'm afraid that they'll break up easily. When do you think San Bao will be able to get married and let me become a grandma?"
With so many sly foxes and wolf cubs waiting around her daughter, would her daughter ever get married?
Qiao Nan had been living a blissful life ever since she got married. Perhaps it was because her life was so blissful that she felt as though it had just been yesterday that she had just gotten to know Zhai Sheng. In the blink of an eye, the couple had already been married for more than twenty years, and their three children were already about to graduate from university.
Zhai Yu had probably inherited Qiao Nan's talent for foreign languages. Additionally, she had received training from Old Lin and Qiao Nan from a young age. As such, Zhai Yu performed quite well in foreign languages. Not only had she become an alumnus of Qiao Nan's alma mater, but she had also become Qiao Nan's junior and colleague!
As for Zhai Yi and Zhai Xin, their results had been so stellar in school that they had graduated ahead of time. Zhai Yi had joined the army, and Zhai Xin had fulfilled his dream of joining the air force.
The day he donned the military uniform, Zhai Xin had even joked with Zhai Yu that they would really have covered all three forces in this generation had Zhai Yu joined the military and gone into the navy.
