Chapter 1227: Inexperience
Qiao Nan finally understood, but before she could even open her mouth, Qiao Dongliang resolutely stood on the side of his son-in-law.
Qiao Nan followed suit: "Dad, you and Brother Zhai both said so, okay, you go cook, I'll eat a little. After eating, I'll go to bed early. Maybe, after a good rest today, I'll be more energetic tomorrow. When I return to the capital, it won't affect my care of the triplets."
Qiao Dongliang's smile froze: "Okay, then Dad will go get ready."
Qiao Dongliang's back looked a little lonely and desolate.
Qiao Zijin, who was sitting next to him, felt very happy. Who made her father favor Qiao Nan so much before, as if Qiao Nan was his only daughter and she was picked up by her mother and him.
Dad was extremely attentive to Qiao Nan, but in the end, Qiao Nan still left him far behind after she rose to the top.
Seeing her father's uncomfortable expression, Qiao Zijin only said one word: It's his fault!
Ding Jiayi was relaxed, chatting with Qiao Nan in a casual manner: "Why, you and your wife finally came back to Pingcheng, and you are going back tomorrow? Won't you stay a few more days? After all, you two grew up in Pingcheng, and you have so many good friends. It's New Year's Day, why don't you get together and get in touch with each other? That would be great. Also, son-in-law, you did move to the capital, but don't forget your old relatives. Now that you two are back, you must visit the Zhai family's relatives who are still in Pingcheng. Otherwise, if others know that you and your wife are back but didn't visit them, they will say something very unpleasant."
As Qiao Nan's mother, Zhai Sheng could take Qiao Nan with him when he visited relatives, so that she could get acquainted and get to know them and get a rough idea of how many new relatives they have.
What if one day, the Qiao family encounters some big trouble, and Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng can't show up in time to help them solve the problem, can't she ask these "relatives" for help?
Qiao Nan rubbed his forehead: "I'm not feeling well, Brother Zhai, I'll lean on you and take a nap."
"Okay." Zhai Sheng held Qiao Nan with one hand so that Qiao Nan could lean on him more comfortably. As for Ding Jiayi's suggestion, the couple ignored it tacitly and didn't answer it.
Ding Jiayi is a fishier existence than fish, and she can't be touched at all.
Qiao Nan closed her eyes, leaned on Zhai Sheng and put on an absolutely uncooperative attitude, so that Ding Jiayi couldn't do anything to her. As for Zhai Sheng, who was sitting next to Qiao Nan with his eyes closed, Ding Jiayi smiled guiltily and didn't even have the courage to talk to him.
All of Ding Jiayi's temper and ability could only be directed at Qiao Nan, her daughter. In front of others, even Zhai Sheng, her son-in-law, Ding Jiayi couldn't find a hard bone in her body.
Just like that, the three of them sat quietly in the living room, while Qiao Dongliang and Qiao Zijin were busy in the kitchen.
In the Pingcheng compound, the Qiao family's small courtyard was the first family in the compound to smell the smell of rice today.
Qiao Nan squinted like this until Qiao Dongliang and Qiao Zijin brought out the food.
Qiao Nan had said earlier that she was not feeling well and did not want to eat. If she showed this attitude again, even if Ding Jiayi guessed that Qiao Nan must be right, she could not say a word, fearing that if she said a word, she would not be able to eat today's meal.
Qiao Dongliang and Qiao Nan had lived alone for several years, and he knew Qiao Nan's eating habits very well: "Many dishes here are spicy. Nan Nan, try them and see if they taste the same as before. Zhai Sheng, I remember that you came to our house before and ate the same as us. You should also eat spicy food, right?"
In the early years, there was absolutely no shortage of dishes on the table.
Qiao Dongliang and Qiao Nan like spicy food, but Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin don't like it.
Qiao Zijin stopped being stubborn and reminded Qiao Dongliang of the situation in the kitchen, asking Qiao Dongliang to prepare a few more dishes without chili peppers for her and her mother.
It was rare that Qiao Zijin's temper improved and Ding Jiayi did not make any trouble. Qiao Dongliang had no reason to refuse Qiao Zijin's reasonable request, so there was such a table of dishes.
Qiao Dongliang very kindly picked up a bowl of her favorite dishes for Qiao Nan: "Nan Nan, eat more dishes, it's good to eat enough dishes. Rice is casual, just eat one or two bites. Vegetables are nutritious, eat more vegetables."
"Thank you, Dad." Under Zhai Sheng's comfort, Qiao Nan's mentality gradually calmed down. Seeing Qiao Dongliang pick up the top dishes for her, Qiao Nan finally had an appetite and started to eat.
When Qiao Nan was about 70% full, she put down her chopsticks: "Dad, I'm full."
It was time to give breast milk to the three babies. Qiao Nan no longer had to feed them those nutritious, oily, but extremely deceptive tonic soups every day.
Without the tonic soup, Qiao Nan could eat three meals a day as usual.
Qiao Dongliang was naturally happy when his daughter was full, but when Qiao Dongliang saw that Qiao Nan was eating the non-spicy dishes he prepared for Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin, he was a little confused: "Nan Nan, you don't like spicy food now?"
Qiao Nan shook her head: "The three babies are only more than four months old now, and I haven't completely weaned them off breast milk. I can't eat anything that is too spicy or even too savory."
Not to mention spicy food, even if the salty taste is a little too strong, Qiao Nan will take a bowl of boiled water and rinse the vegetables in the boiled water. Only when the water is diluted will she dare to put it in her mouth.
Otherwise, she would have been satisfied, but she was afraid that the triplets would have stomachaches after drinking her milk.
"Is that so?" Qiao Dongliang had no experience in this area, so he could only look at Ding Jiayi with a puzzled look on his face.
Ding Jiayi nodded: "Children nowadays are very delicate, and mothers have to be frugal and careful. Times have changed, and people are more particular." Ding Jiayi understood this situation a little.
But seeing Qiao Nan being so fussy and particular, Ding Jiayi felt unhappy.
She suspected that Qiao Nan brought up this topic at this time to promote it to her.
She has been so strong all her life and has scolded Qiao Nan for twenty years. Why? Isn't it because Qiao Nan is not a son but a daughter? She thought of her own mother laughing at her and cursing her for not being able to give birth to a son, and dying without a son to see her off.
Now, she still has no son, but Qiao Nan is more capable than her. Not only did she give birth to a son, she gave birth to two in her lifetime.
She only had two children and no son, but because of the "over-birth" issue, Qiao Nan had to leave the army.
