Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

It was also because of this matter that Ding Jiayi started to have a huge opinion on Qiao Zijin now. It was either they didn’t mention this matter, or if they did, Ding Jiayi would get anxious with Qiao Zijin and scold her a vixen for not living her life well.

“Okay, don’t say these words in front of me. You don’t have other questions, right? If not, I’ll rent a hotel room for you first. You’ll stay there for a night. I’ll find a house for you tomorrow and you can move in. As for you, Qiao Zijin, I’ve said my words clearly just now. I need to provide for her, not you. You have to take care of yourself. Regardless of how big a fuss you kick, it will be useless. There’s no reason for a younger sister to provide for an older sister. Oh, right, I forgot to tell you. I’ll give you one thousand yuan every month. I won’t care how you spend it or who you spend it on. However, if you don’t have enough, don’t bother asking me for more. Even if you do, I won’t give it to you.”

Qiao Nan was indeed afraid of how foolish Ding Jiayi would be if she spent time together with Qiao Zijin. Qiao Zijin especially knew how to coax Ding Jiayi.

Not willing to condone this mother-daughter pair anymore, Qiao Nan gave Ding Jiayi a heads-up. If Ding Jiayi dared to squander all the money on Qiao Zijin, she wouldn’t give her any additional money.

Children were meant to support their parents. The problem was some parents loved to spend lavishly and on things that were not within their means. It was impossible for children to sell their flesh and blood just to satisfy their parents’ excessive consumption.

On this point, Qiao Nan had always held on to a viewpoint. She could let Ding Jiayi enjoy all the good food, drinks, and clothes. However, that was all. If Ding Jiayi wanted to live an extravagant life where she could spend lavishly, then apologies. Unless Qiao Zijin could provide it, she would never be able to achieve this.

“Okay, let’s go.” After saying her words, Qiao Nan paid for the tea and snacks and led Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin to rent a hotel room.

Ding Jiayi looked at the snacks on the table reluctantly. Money was spent on these. They didn’t eat much and it was simply a waste. Ding Jiayi couldn’t hold back and grabbed some of them in her hands.

Qiao Zijin wanted to do so as well. However, when she was in Ping Cheng, she had consumed at such places before as well. She wasn’t willing to do the same as Ding Jiayi and held back. However, when she saw the bill, she was speechless. This was indeed the capital. The price of a sip of tea here was twice or thrice that of Ping Cheng.

However, Qiao Nan had hardly touched the expensive tea and snacks. Under such circumstances, Qiao Nan was still willing to pay and just leave without eating anything. What did this show? This showed that Qiao Nan’s conditions had really improved and she was leading a much better life than her.

If it were Qiao Nan from ten years before, how would she let these go to waste?

Could it be that a diplomat in the central government earned a high salary? Indeed, being supported by the government was good. The Zhou family didn’t even lead such an easy life like Qiao Nan, let alone her.

Qiao Zijin found it a pity that she couldn’t bask in the glory of Qiao Nan’s success. Even her mother stood at the peak of human relations. However, the Qiao Nan today was really too smart. Her words had shut all their paths out.

She understood that aside from providing their mother with food and clothes, Qiao Nan wouldn’t make up for anything else and let her lead the life of a rich man’s wife. There was a limit to the amount of money she would provide, and her mother wouldn’t have any excess cash. How was she going to find a way to coax the money out of her mother so that it became hers?

Only then did Qiao Zijin develop the thought of wanting Qiao Nan to buy a house for her.

Who knew that they hadn’t met for a few years and Qiao Nan had become stingier than before, leaving Qiao Zijin little room to express her thoughts? She had no choice but to fall into an extremely passive state.

Qiao Zijin sighed. Qiao Nan was better-looking and had a smarter brain. Why was it that she was luckier than her as well and managed to marry such a formidable husband like Zhai Sheng? If one calculated it, Qiao Nan had occupied all the favorable climatic, geographical, and human conditions.

This world was really unfair. She had waited for over ten years for Qiao Nan’s luck to be down. Instead, she saw Qiao Nan living a better life day by day. Qiao Nan had already reached the stage where her neck would be sore if she looked up at her.

How good it would be if she was Qiao Nan or if these good things happened to her. If Zhou Zheng was as outstanding as Zhai Sheng, would she resort to being charmed by other men outside? The man outside was much better than Zhou Zheng, and she felt happier only when she was with him.

Nobody knew what Qiao Zijin was thinking about.

After Qiao Zijin recovered herself, Qiao Nan had already sent her and Ding Jiayi to the entrance of the hotel. Qiao Nan booked a twin bedroom for them. “I’ll pick you up tomorrow at twelve. Remember what I said. Don’t say I didn’t tell you this beforehand. It has been over ten years. You should understand how firm my attitude is, right?”

“I know, I know! I really don’t know if I’m your mother, or you’re my mother. How fierce.” Ding Jiayi was angry, but she knew she had to rely on Qiao Nan for a living. She completely didn’t dare to yell at and scold Qiao Nan like before.

If Ding Jiayi really infuriated Qiao Nan, Ding Jiayi knew that the unlucky one in the end would be her. By then, Qiao Nan would ignore her, and Qiao Zijin wouldn’t be willing to provide for her.

Miao Jing had been waiting for Qiao Nan. Seeing that she finally return home, she asked strangely, “Why are you back so late today? Did something happen?”

“My mother brought Qiao Zijin over.”

“…” Miao Jing’s face changed. “I know this, but I didn’t let them in.” Bad things were bound to happen if they came knocking on the door. If not for their family’s relationship with the Zhou family, Qiao Zijin wouldn’t have been qualified to marry over to the Zhou family.

Who would have thought that Qiao Zijin was so shameless and didn’t count her blessings after marrying into the Zhou family? She even had an affair. Miao Jing was relieved not only once that although Qiao Nan and Qiao Zijin were born to the same mother, Qiao Nan was nothing like Ding Jiayi or Qiao Zijin.

Otherwise, whoever had a daughter-in-law like Qiao Zijin would really cry to their death.

It was more or less related to their family that the Zhou family would have Qiao Zijin as a daughter-in-law. As such, Miao Jing and Zhai Sheng said to give the Zhou family some benefits as a form of compensation.

The Zhou family had given face and didn’t spread the word of Qiao Zijin doing such a shameless thing. However, Qiao Zijin was unwilling to relent and even stayed at the Qiao family’s house for two months.
