Chapter 2469: No Disappointment
But people are such greedy animals. Watching the three children grow up little by little, Miao Liang couldn't help but hope that she could still watch the three children become elementary school students, middle school students, high school students and even college students.
If she lived longer, would she still be able to see her great-grandson?
When Grandpa Zhai passed away, Zhai Sheng was already thirty years old. Originally, if Zhai Sheng got married at a normal speed, when Grandpa Zhai passed away, he should not only see his great-grandson, but also his great-grandson would be about to go to elementary school.
Not to mention going to elementary school, at that time, he didn't even know where his great-grandson's mother was.
Grandpa Zhai went to see Grandma Zhai with this regret.
Miao Liang often feels heartbroken because she feels that her health is not particularly good. Not to mention seeing her great-grandson, whether she will have the chance to see her grandson go to elementary school is probably a mystery.
As long as she is still alive and can still accompany her three children, Miao Liang is unwilling to waste time. Even if she can see the children for one more second, this second is earned by her.
"Let's talk about it and do it. You know my temper. Our three children are so good. I can't bear to leave them when I think of them. When I married you, I was such a tender little girl. How come I turned into a wrinkled duck so quickly?"
Miao Liang was not happy. She just felt that time passed too quickly and she was too old.
As she was talking, Miao Liang almost cried out: "Old Zhai, how many years can we two old people live? I just want to see my three children grow up, why is it so difficult?" Why doesn't God want to give her a little more time?
After loosening up Miao Liang's body, Zhai Yaohui held Miao Liang in his arms like a little girl and coaxed her: "Why are you crying? We are so old, but we are still young. When people get old, they have discomfort and ailments here and there. What's so strange about that? Instead of having wild thoughts all day long, worrying that you will die too early and won't be able to see your three children for a few more times, you might as well stay at home with me and take good care of yourself. Can our old bones withstand the torture you are doing today? If we take good care of our bodies, even if we delay our life, we can live a few more years. Isn't that a good deal?"
"Really?" Miao Liang looked at Zhai Yaohui: "If I stay at home with you, can I really live a few more years?"
"Yes!" Zhai Yaohui answered loudly: "Of course I can." Even if I can't, I can.
Miao Miao really thought too much. They are both in their early seventies this year, not even eighty yet. Who knows, they might live to ninety?
By then, the three children should be in college, right?
It is not good to fall in love early, but what if these three children are different from their father? Zhai Sheng married late, and the three children opened up early and fell in love early. The great-grandson would be a bit troublesome, but the granddaughter-in-law and grandson-in-law might be able to see it.
Wouldn't it be good to see this?
Zhai Yaohui really hoped that Zhai Sheng would open up late, and the three children could make up for this shortcoming of Zhai Sheng and open up earlier. It was all for the sake of making Miao Liang happy, and that was fine.
However, if Miao Liang were to play with her three children like she did today, and if the three children fell in love early, Miao Liang would probably never get to see her granddaughter-in-law and grandson-in-law.
"Okay, if you can guarantee it, I'll listen to you in the future." Miao Liang was easy to coax when she was young, and even when she was old, she was still coaxed around by Zhai Yaohui.
Zhai Yaohui smiled and asked Miao Liang to take a nap like the three treasures: "I promise you, if what I said is wrong, you can catch me and beat me in the next life, and I promise not to fight back." It was not enough to coax Miao Liang, Zhai Yaohui shamelessly determined his wife's future.
Miao Liang didn't realize the pit that Zhai Yaohui had dug for herself. What she knew was that Zhai Yaohui was a man who was quite reliable in what he said. She was happy that she could see her three children grow up more: "Okay, that's a deal. Oh, I'm tired. I also want to sleep for a while and get enough energy. When the three babies wake up, I can play with them."
After saying this, Miao Liang turned over and left his back to Zhai Yaohui. In a few minutes, he really fell asleep.
Seeing that Miao Liang was already in his seventies and still had such a childish side, Zhai Yaohui thought that he was not such a failure as a husband. It was a little late, but it was better to be late than never.
"Mom fell asleep?" Seeing that Zhai Yaohui came out again, Zhai Sheng had already made a pot of tea for Zhai Yaohui.
Zhai Yaohui glared at Zhai Sheng: "It's all your fault. Look how anxious your mother is. If you had done it earlier..." Would Miao Miao have behaved like she did today?
Zhai Sheng sneered: "Being earlier doesn't necessarily mean it's better. Are you sure that if I had done it 'casually' 'earlier', would the three treasures still be the grandchildren that mother cherishes today?" It could
n't have been earlier. The fate between him and Nan Nan came so late. If it was earlier or later, they would not be each other.
If Zhai Sheng was the kind of person who was willing to marry a woman and have a child just to make his parents happy, Qiao Nan would never have the chance to marry Zhai Sheng in her life.
Since Zhai Sheng was not that kind of person, even if he knew what Miao Liang was anxious about recently, Zhai Sheng would not say anything, let alone do anything, except making a pot of tea for Zhai Yaohui who comforted Miao Liang.
"Dad, you married mom, are you grateful to your grandfather?" Without your grandfather, given his father's status at the time, it would be impossible for him to marry Miao Jing, who had lost both her parents and was raised in the countryside by her uncle.
"..." Zhai Yaohui had no way to refute his own situation when Zhai Sheng used it as an example.
Just as Zhai Sheng said, when Grandpa Zhai said he wanted his only son Zhai Sheng to marry a girl like Miao Liang, the situation was even stronger than when Zhai Sheng married Qiao Nan. Everyone thought that Grandpa Zhai was crazy. He wanted to repay the life-saving grace he had received with Zhai Yaohui's lifelong happiness and future. Was it still in ancient times?
In a case like Miao Liang, the Zhai family only needed to give Miao Liang a little more money, introduce a good match for Miao Liang, and use the status of the Zhai family to suppress Miao Liang's other partner and ensure Miao Liang's smooth life. Even if they were very good to Miao Liang, they would repay the favor much more.
Letting Zhai Yaohui marry Miao Liang was a big joke.
The problem is that Master Zhai proved to everyone with his actions that he was never joking about this kind of thing, and he really wanted his son to marry the only daughter left by his savior as his daughter-in-law.
Others thought Master Zhai was crazy for doing this, and even Zhai Yaohui was not happy at the time.
Since the Republic of China, people have been talking about free love. Parents' orders and matchmaker's words are all feudal dregs and should be abolished instead of being inherited.
