Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

da bao was the elder brother and the heaviest among the triplets. he was the first baby to finish the food. he had emptied the bowl, but he opened his mouth and looked toward his grandmother, wanting to have more food.

miao jing patted da bao’s protruding belly. “da bao, be good. you are full. you should not stuff yourself with food. if you are hungry later, i will make more food for you.” she noticed that other children were not as well-behaved and obedient as her grandchildren.

miao jing told the auntie to put aside da bao’s bowl so that he would not throw tantrums as he was refused food.

it was easy to discipline babies under one year old. as long as they did not see the food, they would not pester the adults to give them more food.

true enough, once his bowl was put aside, da bao quieted down. he held a toy in his hands and twisted it about.

“the triplets’ arms and grips are getting stronger. they have strong backs as well. they are able to straighten their backs when we carry them. i noticed that da bao has been turning over in bed these past few days.” miao jing stopped da bao from destroying the toy while she told elder lin about the triplets’ recent developments with all smiles.

as the days passed, the triplets had tremendous developments.

“is that so?” elder lin’s curiosity was piqued. after qiao nan wiped san bao’s mouth, elder lin placed her on the sofa. “san bao, show me how you turn over on the sofa.”

san bao, who was well-fed, yawned and blinked her eyes. she stared at elder lin, who was all smiles. instead of turning over, she stretched her legs and grabbed them, bringing her legs to her mouth as she licked at them.

elder lin felt perplexed. “didn’t you just have your meal?” why did she lick her legs?

qiao nan smiled, feeling amused. “san bao, be good. show elder lin how you turn over on the sofa.” qiao nan walked to san bao, who was lying on her back on the sofa. she lifted her and laid her on her stomach.

san bao lay prone on the sofa like a tortoise. she did not feel uncomfortable in that position, but she was unable to lick her legs.

san bao did not throw a tantrum. instead, she flailed her arms and legs and turned over to lie on her back.

san bao was happy that she could raise her legs and she could see what was in front of her. she smiled and drooled happily. her saliva dripped down her cheeks and her chubby neck. she took her legs and started licking again.

“babies who are teething tend to drool a lot.” qiao nan did not know whether to smile or cry. she took out a cotton handkerchief and dabbed san bao’s cheeks and neck lightly with it.

apart from san bao, da bao and er bao had the same problem as well.

nowadays, instead of soiling their clothes, they had to change the triplets’ clothing as the clothes were wet from their saliva!

elder lin was slow to react. he took a while before he applauded san bao for turning over on the sofa. “san bao, that was brilliant! marvelous!”

san bao was too swift in her action. elder lin, who had no experience in taking care of babies, was surprised by her nimble movements and he was slow to react. “the triplets have made tremendous developments.” they seemed to be able to turn over in no time. he was indeed getting older.

“master, our neighbor seems to be moving away.” seeing that lin yuankang seemed to be in a melancholic mood, qiao nan had a bright idea. she shared a piece of information with lin yuankang.

“moving away?” they had been working in the central government. if they moved out now, it would mean that they were transferred away.

qiao nan smiled. “they seem to have committed some mistakes and they can no longer stay in the capital. they have encountered some financial difficulties and they intend to sell the house.”

lin yuankang was interested. “is that so?”

“of course. it’s a pity that i do not have any money. otherwise, one will definitely make money if one buys a house in the capital. i wonder who our future neighbors will be. hopefully, they are good-tempered and won’t be too noisy. the triplets are still young. they will not be able to sleep well if the neighbors are very noisy. they will be frightened.”

qiao nan touched san bao’s feet. she felt that time had passed by in the blink of an eye. as a mother, she almost could not tell that the triplets were born one month before their delivery dates.

they were growing very well.

qiao nan felt embarrassed that her daughter’s thigh would soon be as thick as her thigh.

however, miao jing consoled her that it was normal that the triplets were chubby. babies would normally be chubby from drinking the milk. once they were weaned off the milk, they would lose their weight very quickly.

zhai sheng was handsome and she was not ugly. qiao nan hoped fervently that her babies would not turn out to be overweight.

a fair complexion was good enough to cover one’s faults, but nothing was worse than being fat.

speaking of genes, the triplets should be handsome and beautiful.

elder lin began making plans for himself upon hearing qiao nan’s words. “disciple, i have something on today. i will make a move first. i will visit the triplets next time.”

his disciple was right. the triplets were still young. they could not afford to suffer from any shocks.

if their new neighbor had a bad temper, the triplets might be bullied by them in the future.

as their grand master, he would not allow anyone to bully his grand disciples. he had to come up with a solution.

the zhai family smiled as elder lin left.

zhai hua held san bao in her arms. “when elder lin comes back to his senses, he will definitely be angry at you.”

qiao nan, who held er bao in her arms, looked helpless. she pinched er bao’s lightly on his chubby arms. “i was left with no choice. i am just using the way that will work for him.”

before zhai sheng went back to the army, qiao nan had a talk with him regarding elder lin.

she felt that it was time for him to enjoy life and she wanted to take care of him. however, elder lin was well-to-do and did not need her help. besides, she had yet to graduate and she did not earn any money. she could not use the money from the zhai family to support her master.

another problem was elder lin stayed too far away from the zhai family. qiao nan could not bear it that elder lin had to spend the rest of his life by himself.

it was a coincidence that their neighbors encountered some problems and had to move. it was the solution to qiao nan’s problem.

the neighbors intended to move out and they wanted to sell the house to raise some money.

one would definitely benefit in the long term if one bought a house in the capital. but not everyone was able to afford this kind of private housing. it would cost a lot of money to buy a house in the capital.

however, elder lin had no problem buying such houses.

at times, qiao nan wondered what her master was working as.

she heard that he was once the leader in the ministry of foreign affairs.

the ministry of foreign affairs would not be able to offer their employers with an astoundingly high salary. why was it that her master did not lack any money and he behaved as if he was a baller?
