Chapter 2500: Miao Jing and Zhai Yaohui (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Miao family had always said that Miao Jing didn’t have good fortune. But it wasn’t that she would have a hard life. It was that she would be a jinx and bring harm to others.

But at that time, the new republic had just been founded. The chairman had said to believe in science instead of superstitions. They had to eradicate the four old beliefs.

That was why the Miao family didn’t dare to let outsiders know about how they truly felt. However, no one in the Miao family treated Miao Jing well even though she was the only child of Father and Mother Miao.

Father Miao was the eldest in the Miao family. Ever since his childhood, he had been responsible for taking care of his younger siblings. He was no different from a father to them.

That was why the Miao family had been reliant on Father Miao and felt that he was a good elder brother.

But why did the Miao family despise Miao Jing and think that she was a jinx? That story began from the time before the new China had been established.

Everyone knew that Father Miao was bold and Father Miao had met Old Zhai more than once.

The first time, Father Miao and Old Zhai had still been young and impulsive youths.

At that time, there had been many internal wars within the country. Because of his many younger siblings, Father Miao had no choice but to give up his passion for defending the country and take care of his family instead.

But Old Zhai was different. He had already been engaged in the war of resistance and fought to bring peace to the country for the sake of his wife and son. Every time he went to the frontlines, Old Zhai was never softhearted to his enemies.

Before long, Old Zhai had made a name for himself in the military as a sniper. Not only was he accurate, but he was also almost twice as fast as other snipers. Given his accuracy, Old Zhai had almost twice the killing rate of his comrades.

His performance was so outstanding that he didn’t even need to promote himself. His superiors were extremely impressed and wanted to groom Old Zhai and give him the chance to further his career.

But as this happened more often, it was inevitable that others tried to bring him down.

Once, Old Zhai had fallen into a trap set up by the Japanese.

Old Zhai had been injured and had been so weak that he couldn’t even drag himself back to the base for treatment. It was Father Miao who had picked him up along the way.

When Old Zhai awoke, his first reaction was gratefulness that he had not died. He hadn’t made his wife into a widow, and his son into an orphan. But when he took a look at his surroundings, he realized that he had been hidden in a civilian’s home.

During their second encounter, Old Zhai asked Father Miao, “Why are you so bold? To be honest, the Japanese look pretty much the same as our people. No one would know if the Japanese wear our uniform and try to act as one of us. Weren’t you afraid of saving the wrong side after I was shot and was bleeding so severely?”

Father Miao was upset. “What do you mean that the Japanese look like us? They’re much shorter than us. Besides, I knew at once that you’re Chinese. You won’t be able to fool me.”

That was Father Miao and Old Zhai’s first encounter.

At that time, Zhai Yaohui had already been born but was still unweaned.

Because Father Miao hadn’t met Mother Miao at that time, Miao Jing still did not exist.

Even after ten years of war, it wasn’t so easy to establish a new country, and an internal war arose again.

Because of the battle between factions, Old Zhai had been injured again. And once again, he had been saved by Father Miao.

This time, they were like old acquaintances and Old Zhai treated Father Miao like his own brother. “Oh, you moved?”

Father Miao laughed. “I’m married now. We have too many family members but too few rooms. My younger siblings aren’t young anymore, so I decided to move out with my wife so that my siblings can live more comfortably.”

“Fool!” Old Zhai had been rebellious as a youth too, but his heart was good. Nonetheless, his words and tone were not flattering. “You’re the eldest in the family, right? You went through so much to raise your younger siblings. You’ve already done your duty as an elder brother, and you even gave up a good house for your younger siblings to live more comfortably? What a fool! Your younger siblings should be grateful that they have such a good elder brother. All I can say is that your wife and children are really pitiful for having you.”

This house was obviously not as good as the previous one. A strong blast of wind would probably blow this house down.

Old Zhai was sure that water would leak through the roof when it rained even without personally witnessing it.

Even with Old Zhai’s tone, Father Miao hadn’t gotten angry, and he even had an expression full of respect. “It’s not that bad. I’ll fix it later. It’s only this way because I just recently moved here with my wife.”

“Do you have a child?”

“Yes, but it’s still in my wife’s tummy.” Father Miao let out a fatherly smile at the mention of his child.

Father Miao treated his younger siblings well, and it was only natural that he would treat his own child even better.

“She hasn’t given birth yet?” Old Zhai gave it some thought. “My son is already a few years old. Since you saved me twice, if your wife gives birth to a son, he’ll be brothers with mine. If she gives birth to a daughter, how about you marry her off to my son?”

Father Miao refused. “No, my son will definitely be a wild child. If it’s a girl… I want her close to me.”

Even though Father Miao had never asked about Old Zhai’s situation, he knew that Old Zhai would definitely become an impressive figure in the future from the times he had saved him.

He didn’t know how far Old Zhai would progress, but he knew that he didn’t amount to much.

Father Miao was self-aware. He had saved others out of his own volition and felt that he had fulfilled his dreams of being a soldier and protecting his country and people by protecting his fellow countrymen even though he had not been able to join the military himself.

As such, Father Miao had no intentions of leeching off Old Zhai. He simply wanted to live his own simple life.

Old Zhai had been pretty upset that Father Miao had refused his suggestion. Because of his temper, he had refused to chat with Father Miao afterward.

Father Miao paid no attention to that, thinking that Old Zhai was simply tired because of his injury. Then, he gave up his room to Old Zhai so that he could rest well.

In the face of such an honest and sincere Father Miao, Old Zhai couldn’t vent his temper.

Thankfully, that anger subsided within a day.
