Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 2367: One’s Children Were the Best (2)

Zhai Sheng was handsome, had a good family background, and was a chief. How could someone with such great qualifications have remained single without remarrying after his first divorce?

Sometimes, people’s thoughts were painfully foolish.

So what if one was old and single? In the eyes of the general public, these people were terribly ill. Not only was there something wrong with their bodies, but it even seemed as though they had infectious diseases. Everyone tried their best to avoid them.

The auntie was a married woman with her own children while Zhai Sheng was a chief who spent much more time in the military than at home. Even without trying to avoid him, the auntie hardly interacted with him. Even so, the auntie had such a strange impression of the unmarried Zhai Sheng.

The auntie couldn’t help but sigh. It was true that marriage was essential in one’s life. One just had to take a look at Chief Zhai. He had been such a bizarre person in the past but look how good he was now. He was a perfect father who spent more time at home playing with his children.

“That’s right.” Miao Jing announced proudly, “Our family’s children are the best. If Zhai Sheng’s not a good father, his dad and I will definitely deal with him.” Now that they had their grandchildren, what was their son to them? He had been tossed to the side a long time ago.

The auntie knew that Miao Jing was simply joking. While grandchildren were precious, sons were equally precious.

Thinking about what Zhai Sheng had instructed her to do, the auntie glanced at the phone. Chief Zhai had said that she had to pick up any call that came from Ping Cheng. If it was not urgent, he would call them back. If it was urgent, she could simply call the military to inform him about it.

Why was Zhai Sheng so anxious?

He had no other choice. Food poisoning was nothing serious, but Ding Jiayi was not young anymore. Besides, Qiao Zijin was around her as a source of provocation. As such, Ding Jiayi’s body might just give way at any time and cause her to fall seriously ill.

He had found someone to keep an eye on the ill Ding Jiayi. But as a stranger, the other party could not interfere too much in her matters. As such, he could only convey whatever he saw over to Zhai Sheng for him to make a decision. In case of such a situation, Zhai Sheng informed the auntie in advance about this. action

Thankfully, the auntie was not a fool either. Zhai Sheng still spent some time in the military, and very soon, Qiao Nan would take her graduation examination and receive her degree. Then, Qiao Nan would have time to stay at home with her children. Since it involved her family in Ping Cheng, wouldn’t it be easier to tell Qiao Nan about the matter instead?

Zhai Sheng had instructed the auntie instead to give Qiao Nan peace of mind. The auntie couldn’t be more supportive of Zhai Sheng doting on his wife. There was no way she was going to go against his wishes.

Zhai Sheng’s worries were not unfounded. Ding Jiayi was no good thing, and her daughter, Qiao Zijin, had surpassed her master.

Ding Jiayi wasn’t too clear about how she had gotten food poisoning. All she remembered was that she had felt especially uncomfortable in the middle of the night. Not only had she come down with a fever, but she had also gotten extremely nauseous as though she had been pregnant all over again.

When Ding Jiayi awoke again, the first thing that greeted her was the white ceiling of the hospital and the smell of formalin. “Am I in the hospital?” After confirming where she was, Ding Jiayi let out a sigh of relief, expressing her joy that she was still alive.

When she had been suffering, Ding Jiayi had truly thought that she was on the verge of death. Qiao Dongliang had not been by her side, and the only one who could take care of her, Qiao Nan, was in the capital. As for Qiao Zijin, Ding Jiayi thought it was better not to count on her. In fact, she thought that Qiao Zijin might finally remember her mother’s existence once her body started to smell from the decomposition.

“Auntie, you’re up. Do you want some water?” Seeing that Ding Jiayi had opened her eyes, the caretaker quickly helped Ding Jiayi up. “Auntie, are you feeling uncomfortable? Shall I get the doctor over?” The caretaker’s attitude was good and she was very concerned about Ding Jiayi’s condition.

“You are?” She didn’t know this person at all. Why was she taking care of her?

“I’m the caretaker that your relatives hired. You can ask me for whatever you need.” The thirty-year-old caretaker was very warm, and her round face gave off a genuine sincerity.

After Ding Jiayi was helped up, she took a sip of water to ease her discomfort. “My relatives? Which one? Is she here?” Ding Jiayi asked carefully, not knowing what kind of expectations she should have.

“I’m not sure. I haven’t met them before. But they told me to take good care of you.” Money was no problem. In fact, she had already received ten thousand yuan from them.

Because of the high salary, the caretaker didn’t care who had hired her. All she wanted to do was to do her job well and return home with whatever money she deserved.

“…” Ding Jiayi refused to give up. “Was there anyone by my side apart from you last night?” It didn’t seem like she had been seriously ill. It was just one night in the hospital. There must have been someone who had spent the night with her.

“I’m not too sure.” The caretaker was confused why Ding Jiayi was asking so many questions. “There was someone who left just as I arrived. But I heard that those people were your neighbors.” The caretaker’s eyes brightened. “Are you looking for your daughter? She’s probably working and has no time to visit you.”

When the elderly fell sick and were hospitalized, they naturally wished for their children to visit them. The problem was that their children were often busy working. Otherwise, how could they afford to be warded in a private room with a caretaker?

Ding Jiayi was at a loss for words.

Ding Jiayi had not been dead the previous night. Although she had been in great distress, she knew exactly who had sent her to the hospital. What Ding Jiayi could not forget about was that Qiao Zijin had not found her only after her corpse had decomposed as she had worried about in the past.

In fact, less than three minutes after she had accidentally toppled her cup on her nightstand, Qiao Zijin had run in to check on her.
