Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

They definitely had to provide for Ding Jiayi’s and Qiao Donglaing’s old age. Zhai Sheng might despise his mother-in-law, but he had never thought of keeping the money and shirking his responsibility of taking care of them.If Ding Jiayi did not bring up this topic today, he might give her more money for the sake that she was being honest and she did not make any more trouble for Nan Nan.

However, Ding Jiayi brought it up today and said such harsh words. She even said that she was preparing for rainy days. It was such a joke.

Since Ding Jiayi did not give due respect to their feelings, it was up to them to decide how they wanted to provide for her in the future. It was one thing to provide for their basic needs, making sure that they were fed and clothed, and another thing to take good care of them, financially and mentally.

In the end, it was up to the children to decide how they wanted to provide for their parents.

In the past, Ding Jiayi had no chance of enjoying life in her old age. Now that she had said such harsh words, Zhai Sheng decided that he would make sure that she was only provided with the bare minimum.

Qiao Nan took a deep breath. Zhai Sheng gripped her hands, giving her support and she tightened her grip.

She had never discussed how she should provide for her parents when they were old. This was indeed a problem. It would be awkward if she brought it up. Now that her mother visited her and did not care to maintain her dignity, Qiao Nan could not be bothered to show respect for her feelings. “I agree with Brother Zhai. I share the same sentiments with him. I am your daughter. I will fulfill my duty as your child until the end.”

Of course, she would take care of them until they passed away.

“Qiao Zijin and I are your daughters. Regardless of whether Qiao Zijin marries into another family or takes in a husband, the two of us will be responsible for providing for you. We will share the responsibility equally, including medical fees and more. Biological brothers will make sure that the accounts are right, notwithstanding Qiao Zijin and me. All the living expenses will be taken into account. When one is old, one will need to see the doctor. By then, if Dad and Mom go to the hospital, you can pass the receipt to me and I will pay for half of the medical bills.”

Qiao Nan was not foolish. She would not take care of Qiao Dongliang and Ding Jiayi by herself like what she did in the previous life. Whenever they needed money, she would be the only one who paid for their expenses.

Since they had two children, it was just nice.

They could divide all the expenses into half. No one would take advantage of the other party.

“But Zijin is still in school. She doesn’t have any money!” This was not the outcome that Ding Jiayi hoped to see. Of course, she wished that her elder daughter would provide for her. But the elder daughter would not marry as well as the younger daughter. She would not be able to provide much for her. The younger daughter was different. She could provide her with more allowance and she would be able to lead a good life in Ping Cheng.

“Nan Nan is also a student.” Zhai Sheng smirked. Ding Jiayi was indeed shameless. She did not even try to hide her greediness. She was indeed the ‘hero’ among the other evil people.

Ding Jiayi opened her mouth and was about to say that it was different. Zijin would not marry as well as Qiao Nan. Although Qiao Nan was a student and she did not have any money, the Zhai family had lots of money.

She did not care if Qiao Nan supported her using her hard-earned money or the money from the Zhai family.

Ding Jiayi was indeed shameless to come up with such an idea. But she dared not voice out her thoughts. In fact, Ding Jiayi did not want Qiao Nan to provide for her. She was hoping that the Zhai family would provide for her.

Ding Jiayi would not be contented with whatever that she had. Although Qiao Nan had no idea what was on her mind, she could tell from her behavior in the previous life what Ding Jiayi was capable of. Qiao Nan ignored Ding Jiayi and turned to Qiao Dongliang, who was silent all the while. “Dad, whatever I said just now applies to you as well.”

Qiao Dongliang forced a smile on his face. “You are a good child. This has never been my concern. Nan Nan, you don’t have to worry about me. The country is developing very well. I heard that there will be a pension in the future. I am still young. I can work. I will work harder now to save money for the future.” He had no wish to be a burden to his children.

There was no need for his children to provide for him. He did not wish to become Nan Nan’s burden when she was still so young.

“Dad, I understand.” Qiao Nan believed that Qiao Dongliang never had such thoughts. “However, we need to discuss and come to an agreement so that we will know what to do in the future and we will not end up in a quarrel when the time comes. Qiao Zijin and I are students. We can’t make any money at the moment. By the time we start to work, we will still face the same problem. It is better to talk about it earlier. Even if we do not talk about it today and postpone it to some other day, we might end up in a stiffer mood than today.”

They would have to deal with it sooner or later. Therefore, it was better to talk about it now than to feel upset about it in the future.

Qiao Nan looked toward Qiao Zijin. “Qiao Zijin, what do you think of my suggestion? Do you have anything that you want to add or change?”

Qiao Zijin did not expect that Ding Jiayi, who had a talk with her previously, would change her mind and catch her off-guard. There was no way for her to salvage the situation.

Her good attitude and endurance were all for nothing. Qiao Zijin felt anger boiling inside her.

She remembered that Chen Jun brought her to Beijing two years ago during summer break. He barely stayed for two days before he insisted on returning to Ping Cheng. After returning to Ping Cheng, he was determined to break up with her despite all the money that he had spent on her previously. She finally understood why Chen Jun insisted on breaking up with her back then.

One was not afraid of a strong competitor but of a noob ally.

She and Qiao Nan were on bad terms. There was no way that they could salvage their relationship.

After completing two internships, Qiao Zijin had a clearer idea of the society as compared to when she was still in school. It was harsh and brutal. Even if she worked industriously for ten years, it was not as useful as one word from the Zhai family.

After breaking up with Chen Jun and going through all the hardships in the past one year, Qiao Zijin finally calmed down and thought seriously about her relationship with Qiao Nan as well as what she should do in the future.

She had decided to resign to fate!

She still hated Qiao Nan. She was far superior to Qiao Nan from a young age, but Qiao Nan married well when she grew up and she would have no way of doing better than her. However, she had no wish of making things difficult for herself. Although she was not on good terms with Qiao Nan, at least, she would not make things to be too awkward in front of other people.

She hated that Qiao Nan married well and led a better life than her. But she knew that Qiao Nan was just as annoyed that she made use of their relationship to take advantage of her.

She was happy to know that Qiao Nan was annoyed.

Since Qiao Nan disliked the fact that she behaved affectionately to her, all the more would she make use of their relationship to make sure that she led a better life.
