Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 1709 - Upset


Chapter 1709: Upset

As Zhai Yu’s second brother and the second child amongst the triplets, he had not even performed as well as Zhai Yu. How could he continue living his life?

“Mom, I guess you can finally rest assured now.” Zhai Xin was heartened by the letter and told Qiao Nan about the apology from Zhou Xing. But this call had been answered by Zhai Yu. Hearing that Zhou Xing had finally given up, Zhai Yu was rather happy. It had not been easy for Zhou Xing to come to a realization.

If Zhou Xing had been obstinate and resolute, they would have no choice but to use some extreme methods to deal with her.

“Yes, don’t worry.” Qiao Nan had always been frowning lately. Now, she could finally relax. She had never expected that it would be so easy to resolve the matter with Zhou Xing. “Zhou Xing doesn’t seem to be that much like her mom.”

If Qiao Zijin had been like Zhou Xing and had readily accepted other people’s advice and thought it through, Qiao Zijin would still be alive today. Zhou Xing would not have lost her mom at such a young age either.

What Qiao Nan could not accept was how Qiao Zijin had still gone down the same path even after starting her own family in two whole lifetimes. Instead of taking care of her own family, she chose to have affairs. Without it, Qiao Zijin would not have gotten a divorce from Zhou Zheng. As long as she did not get divorced from Zhou Zheng, Qiao Zijin would only live well in Ping Cheng and watch Zhou Xing grow up healthily.

What a beautiful and happy life that would be! But everyone was ruined by Qiao Zijin.

“Mom.” Zhai Yu leaned on Qiao Nan’s shoulder, overcome with emotions. “This only proves that it’s crucial for children to have elders that can correct them properly. In fact, Zhou Xing grew up with her paternal grandparents. Mom, you’re the clearest about how that old couple was. With those two people educating Zhou Xing, Zhou Xing could not go too far off the path.”

After she learned about Zhou Xing, Zhai Yu used several contacts that her auntie, Zhai Hua, had given her to investigate Zhou Xing’s background.

After learning about what Zhou Xing had gone through in her childhood, Zhai Yu, who had grown up in a bed of roses, felt a little sympathy for Zhou Xing.

Father and Mother Zhou did not like their grandson and were biased toward their granddaughter, Zhou Xing. But that was not without reason. After Mother Zhou got married, she had always been pampered by Father Zhou. Mother Zhou held the power to make the decision in all matters in the Zhou family.

Before Zhou Zheng got remarried, he always listened to his mom in all matters. After Zhou Xing was born, she had been raised by Father and Mother Zhou. As such, Zhou Xing had a close relationship with her grandparents since she was young. Moreover, Zhou Xing had a sweet mouth that was not unlike Qiao Zijin’s when she was a child herself. As such, Zhou Xing was her grandparents’ happy pill.

When Zhou Zheng got remarried, Father and Mother Zhou had done nothing to help the couple other than turning up at the wedding venue as their elders. All the costs of Zhou Zheng taking a new wife and the cost of giving his father-in-law some pocket money entirely came out of Zhou Zheng’s pocket. Father and Mother Zhou had not forked out a single cent.

Zhou Zheng had a stable job that had good welfare benefits too. The problem was that he did not have a high salary. Besides, he was not one who had much savings. Before he got a divorce from Qiao Zijin, he was used to giving a portion of his salary to Qiao Zijin as pocket money.

One could imagine how different Zhou Zheng’s second wedding was from his first. It was as different as night was from day.

The bride had a sharp ear and had heard their guests comparing this wedding to that wedding with Qiao Zijin, saying that everything was too shabby and distasteful. It was obvious that this bride was not in the good books of her parents-in-law. When Zhou Zheng had gotten married for the first time, it had truly been marrying a wife, the most important event in one’s life.

But this second wedding was as though they were just playing around. It was just too shabby.

Even if it was for a second marriage, the bride was still proud as Zhou Zheng’s favorite first love. When Zhou Zheng had married Qiao Zijin in the past, he had still listened entirely to his mom. After marrying this favorite first love of his, Zhou Zheng finally revealed his true nature of listening to his wife, which he had learned from his father. He allowed his first love to arrange everything and take care of all matters at home.

At that time, Father and Mother Zhou had already taken Zhou Xing to live in that big house that they had purchased for Qiao Zijin.

It did not look too bad, but neither was their home very good. As such, his first love’s dissatisfaction reached a breaking point. But his first love was an intelligent person and chose not to throw a temper at Zhou Zheng. On the night of their wedding, Zhou Zheng apologized to his first love, saying that he had already strived hard, but he would strive even harder to let her lead a good life in the future.

His first love was clearly full of rage but treated Zhou Zheng gently nonetheless. She kept reassuring that it was all right that this wedding could not compare to her first wedding. Because of Zhou Zheng’s feelings toward her, she felt that she had married the right person and that she would lead a good life in the future.

Upon hearing her say that, Zhou Zheng fell even deeper for her, and his guilt toward her intensified. In short, his first love’s tenderness and consideration on their wedding night caused Zhou Zheng to completely give in to her. Zhou Zheng felt that his first love was actually the same type of person as his mom, the kind of woman who would treat her husband especially well.

The next day, Zhou Zheng ran to his parents and complained about the injustice faced by his first love. He even told Father and Mother Zhou about those sensible words that his first love had told him. “Dad, Mom, listen. Huihui is really a good young lady. She’s so sensible. She’s nothing like Qiao Zijin who’s incapable and feisty. It’s your son’s good fortune to be able to marry such a good young lady like Huihui. You two elders should treat Huihui better and fairer, even if it’s just a little bit. Is that all right?” That would be fair to him.

“No!” Mother Zhou was not moved by her new daughter-in-law’s words to her son. In fact, she was fuming. “Her words may be able to deceive a fool like you, but don’t even think of trying to toy with me like that. I’ve said long ago that this woman is not an oil-efficient lamp. If you like her, just live your life with her. You’ll have a hard time in the future!”

Her son had actually compared such a scheming b*tch with his own mother! Mother Zhou was heartbroken. She might have a hard temper and a strong personality, but she treated her husband and son well and genuinely. She had never done anything that would let her son down.

If her daughter-in-law’s heart toward her son was like hers toward her husband, there was no way she would disagree to the remarriage. In fact, Qiao Zijin would not even have been in the picture. Mother Zhou could sense that this young lady was pretty but was not actually sincere toward her son. All she wanted was to spend the money in her son’s pocket.
