“Go to my house?” Nan Nan was already his woman. In that case, it was imperative that they collect the marriage certificate and throw a wedding banquet early next year. He had to get a concrete solution to this as soon as possible before he could feel at ease.

  Just as Nan Nan said, what if Nan Nan was already pregnant with his child?

  “Can I not go?” At this moment, Qiao Nan only wanted to dig a hole and bury herself in it.

  Her first time—such an important first time—actually occurred in such a muddleheaded way due to Ding Jiayi’s aggravation.

  “Cannot.” Having said that, Zhai Sheng carried Qiao Nan in a domineering way and placed her into his own car. After he closed all the windows in the small courtyard, he drove his car and brought his wife home.

  Miao Jing had been on pins and needles as she stared continuously at the entrance of her own house.

  Zhai Yaohui was quite helpless at Miao Jing’s reaction. “Whatever will come will come. Even if you continue staring and hurt your eyes, they will not arrive earlier.”

  “The problem is that Zhai Sheng did not come back for the whole night. Tell me, where was he sleeping at?!”

  Miao Jing’s eyes were shining brightly. She was both excited and embarrassed.

  The corners of Zhai Yaohui’s mouth twitched. “Isn’t that what you have wished for? You have been talking about having a grandchild.”

  “Right, I want to carry a great-grandchild!” Old Master Zhai added with a loud and booming voice. “Anyway, our family is not the type that refuses to bear the responsibility. Didn’t we say that we will be throwing a wedding banquet early next year? It is not a problem to go into the bridal chamber one or two months earlier.”

  Both Old Master Zhai and Zhai Yaohui were men. Could they not know what his son (grandson) was thinking?

  Everyone was once young. His son (grandson) could not wait to hang the other family’s lady on his waist belt or hold and dote on her in his arms all the time.

  It was a rare occasion that his father-in-law was not around and even instructed him to take care of Qiao Nan.

  \r \r \r

  In actual fact, if his son (grandson) could come back, Zhai Yaohui and Old Master Zhai would feel odder. They hoped that their (grandson) had not become handicapped after enduring for too long.

  “Should we be apologetic about this? Will in-law be unhappy about this?” Miao Jing was so happy that flowers were blooming in her heart but she had to pretend that she was worried. She was afraid that if she was too smug, there would be hiccups in Qiao Nan and her son’s wedding.

  Wasn’t there a saying that one should not rejoice too early as extreme joy might turn to sorrow?

  As such, Miao Jing would rather keep a low profile before the matter had succeeded.

  “He will certainly feel unhappy!” Zhai Hua, who looked listless, sang the opposing tune and expressed that Zhai Sheng was going to be in trouble. “Uncle Qiao is quite good to Qiao Nan. He is different from Ding Jiayi. I have realized this previously when I visited the Qiao family. Uncle Qiao keeps a tight watch on Zhai Sheng. That’s also right. After the Lunar New Year, Qiao Nan will only be twenty-one years old, while Zhai Sheng is almost twenty-six years old.”

  She had just broken up with a heartless creature who was full of lies while her own younger brother was going to marry a wife happily over the Lunar New Year. She was so miserable, yet Zhai Sheng was so fortunate. Zhai Hua felt depressed.

  She was even older than Zhai Sheng by one year!!

  At the thought that she was going to be twenty-seven years old and even older in name, Zhai Hua felt both angry and annoyed.

  She had always been falling behind in love affairs in the quad. Time had passed but why had her life become worse? She was finally in a romantic relationship, yet she met such a swindler.

  Two days had passed. At the mention of Wei De’s name, Zhai Hua still felt hate in her heart!

  “If he feels unhappy, so be it.” Old Master Zhai was not worried for his grandson at all. “At most, we will let in-law vent his anger. Zhai Sheng is thick-skinned and tough. There will not be a problem even if he suffers a few punches. Since he wants to marry a wife, what’s wrong with suffering a little?”

  He recalled that, many years ago, when he married his wife, he had been chased around the hill by a few of her uncles.

  “After a beating, you get a wife. Such a bargain is quite rare in this world.” To Old Master Zhai, Zhai Sheng had received a huge bargain. It was too worth it. Too worth it!

  Most importantly, after the successful marriage between his grandson and granddaughter-in-law, would his great-grandchild be far away?

  His grandson in exchange for his great-grandchild—it was totally worth it!

  Zhai Hua was so angry that she rolled her eyes continuously. Nevertheless, she felt better thereafter.

  She had always felt that her parents and grandfather valued Zhai Sheng more. They felt that she could not take on the responsibility of the Zhai family in the future as she was a lady.

  Now, it seemed that Zhai Sheng was only that worthy to her parents and grandfather.

  No matter how important Zhai Sheng was, he could not be compared to that possible little piece of flesh in Qiao Nan’s womb as well as Qiao Nan.

  Since everyone was not being doted on or valued, Zhai Hua felt more balanced at heart. After all, Zhai Sheng was the one who personally found Qiao Nan, who had taken away all the love and care from him.

  As such, Zhai Hua felt more pleased.

  “They are coming! Coming!” Miao Jing’s sharp ears heard the sound of the car driving back. “Hua Hua, Nan Nan is still young and shy. Please don’t bully her later. If you wreck the good matter between Zhai Sheng and Nan Nan, I won’t spare you!”

  They were going to have a grandchild soon. Son or daughter—all of them definitely had to move aside.

  “So biased,” Zhai Hua said without any hesitation. However, when she said it this time, she did not sound as indignant as before. She did not really think that her seniors were biased toward Zhai Sheng and disliked her.

  “Of course I am biased. I show favoritism toward the younger one. When you find and bring home a good and decent man and give birth to a maternal grandchild for me, I will be biased toward that grandchild. As long as they are younger, they will be my precious darling.” Miao Jing could tell the change in her daughter.

  Her daughter’s tone was peaceful and she seemed to be pouting with her eyes when she spoke about favoritism. There were no negative feelings. When she found out, Miao Jing was overjoyed.

  It was no wonder Zhai Yaohui told her before that Nan Nan would bring good fortune to Zhai Sheng.

  In her view, Nan Nan not only brought good fortune to Zhai Sheng but also the entire Zhai family!

  Zhai Hua gave a snort. She threw the pillow in her arms aside and slumped on the sofa. Her mother’s earlier words were too piercing to her heart. Who did not know that she had just broken up with Wei De?

  After so many years, she only agreed to be with one Wei De. However, Wei De turned out to be such a lousy thing.

  At the thought that she was not young anymore, even Zhai Hua herself began to worry. When would she be married and give birth to a maternal grandson for her parents to play with?

  True enough, when they saw the car arriving, Miao Jing cast Zhai Hua a few glances and asked her not to chat anymore.

  Qiao Nan was a lady. As the father-in-law and grandfather, Zhai Yaohui and Old Master Zhai would definitely not tease Qiao Nan on this. In the whole family, only Zhai Hua could talk to Qiao Nan on this without any restraint.

  When the Zhai family of four saw that Qiao Nan’s legs not only trembled but wobbled a little when she alighted from the car, Miao Jing’s face turned red, Zhai Yaohui’s face turned black and Old Master Zhai smiled. Only Zhai Hua’s expression was a little lewd.

  After Qiao Nan entered the house, her face reddened at the sight that all members of the Zhai family were present. She had a feeling and illusion that the whole world knew the bad thing that she and Zhai Sheng had done yesterday.

  “Nan Nan, have you eaten?”
