Seeing Zhai Sheng holding a phone, Miao Jing thought she had disturbed her son from doing his work.
Before Zhai Sheng could answer, there was a crackling sound from the other end of the phone, and a bunch of things fell to the ground.
Miao Jing's sudden appearance scared not Zhai Sheng, but Qiao Nan on the other end of the phone. When Qiao Nan heard Miao Jing's voice, she was so scared that she threw the phone away. When she reacted and wanted to answer it, she bumped into something on the table, so there was a mess.
"Brother Zhai, hang up the phone quickly!" If Aunt Miao knew that it was her who was with Brother Zhai, she would not know how she would react.
Qiao Nan knew that even if Miao Jing didn't like Qiu Chenxi to be her daughter-in-law now, she would not accept her for the time being.
Zhai Sheng did not listen to Qiao Nan and hung up the phone. Instead, he still held the phone in his hand and looked at Miao Liang with a calm and serious look: "Mom, is there something wrong?"
"What can it be? I just came to see you and Huahua. Otherwise, I would have nothing to do at home alone." Miao Liang said boredly. Zhai Yaohui also came on business, and Miao Liang could only accompany him. But Zhai Yaohui kept around him every day, and Zhai Yaohui also talked about how good Qi Minlan was every day. Miao Liang said that she was not happy to hear it.
So, although Miao Liang came to the army with Zhai Yaohui, she didn't care what Zhai Yaohui did.
More importantly, in this army, in addition to her husband Zhai Yaohui, her daughter and son were all here. Miao Liang didn't want to accompany her husband, so of course she came to find her children.
Miao Liang went to find Zhai Hua first, but who knew that before she could talk to Zhai Hua for a few words, the superiors gave her a task. Zhai Hua took over the task without saying a word, leaving Miao Liang, her mother.
"Who are you talking to on the phone? Is it urgent? If it's important, you call first, I'll be out for a while." Miao Liang knew that not everyone could listen to the content of this call.
Originally, as Miao Liang's wife, and she was also Zhai Sheng's biological mother, it was actually okay to listen to it, but Miao Liang never wanted to cause any more trouble for her children, and would rather avoid suspicion.
"No, I'm talking to Nan Nan." Zhai Sheng shook his head.
"Brother Zhai..." Qiao Nan was so angry that she wanted to cover Zhai Sheng's mouth, but in the end she couldn't cover Zhai Sheng's mouth, so she thought of covering the phone. But she was so flustered that she didn't know whether to cover the listening part or the talking part.
"Nannan, why did she contact you?" Miao Liang didn't leave the office again, but sat down: "You and Nannan... often contact each other?"
Thinking that Zhai Sheng used to be in the army all year round, 365 days a year, except for a few days at home on holidays, even her mother didn't seem to receive many calls, Miao Liang felt strange.
"She didn't look for me, she looked for you." Zhai Sheng said calmly, completely lying with his eyes open.
"Looking for me, what do you want to do with me? She looked for me and called you?" Hearing that Qiao Nan was looking for her, Miao Liang smiled, but she was more and more confused in her heart.
Zhai Sheng took the phone and said calmly as usual: "Nannan felt that you seemed to be in a bad mood before, and you were not at home, so she just asked where you were now and asked if I knew about your situation to make you happier."
"Really?" Miao Liang's eyes lit up, and a look of relief flashed across her: "Give me the phone, I will talk to Nannan myself."
If you want to know her situation, you don't need to ask Zhai Sheng, just ask her directly.
"Brother Zhai..." Hearing that Zhai Sheng was still not afraid of death and asked her to talk to Miao Liang directly, Qiao Nan wanted to throw the phone out again. Brother Zhai, don't you think her situation is troublesome enough? You are just making things more complicated!
Before Qiao Nan could finish a complete sentence, someone else was listening on the other end of the phone: "Hello, Aunt Miao, hello, how have you been recently?"
"I'm fine." Miao Liang said cheerfully: "How about you, are you studying well? I heard that it will be more difficult for girls to study in high school. Will you feel tired and unable to keep up with the progress? In fact, if you encounter any troubles and problems in your studies, you can ask your brother Zhai. Of course, it's best to choose a time when your brother Zhai is more free or when he goes home. Although your brother Zhai is a soldier, he has a brain and is well educated."
Qiao Nan's expression eased: "Thank you Aunt Miao for your concern. I am studying now. It's pretty good. I haven't encountered any big problems for the time being. I know that Brother Zhai is busy, so normally, I never call Brother Zhai. Brother Zhai has given me this phone number for two years, and I have only called twice, really..."
Qiao Nan's attempt to cover up something was so obvious, but Miao Liang only picked the content she liked to hear, so she missed it: "It's okay, it's okay. I know you know how to act, and you will definitely not disturb your brother Zhai casually."
Qiao Nan only called Zhai Sheng twice, and this time was for her.
Thinking of this situation, Miao Liang felt particularly comfortable.
Seeing Miao Liang holding the phone and chatting enthusiastically with Qiao Nan, Zhai Sheng silently stood up and poured a glass of water for Miao Liang to prevent her from talking too much with Qiao Nan and having a dry mouth.
"Oh, okay, okay, I can't go back for the time being. You study hard and don't worry about me. I'm fine. I'm an adult and I can definitely adjust my own affairs and emotions. You should focus on studying at this time. Speaking of which, except for Zhai Sheng, there hasn't been a child who can study in our compound for a long time. Nannan, for the sake of the compound, you should work harder and save your breath."
"Aunt Miao, don't worry, I will work hard. Even if it's not for the compound, for others, I have to do my best for myself. Aunt Miao, I want to go to the capital for college in the future."
"You want to study in the capital? Then you really have to work harder. There are good schools there, but they are hard to get into. In fact, as long as your grades are good, you may be able to study abroad in the future after you go to college. Nan Nan, you are a girl, so you must seize the opportunity, understand?"
"Don't worry, Aunt Miao, I actually have this idea." Qiao Nan has been interested in English for two lifetimes, and wants to spend more time and effort on this aspect.
Zhai Sheng frowned slightly. With his status, he is not allowed to go abroad under normal circumstances.
In other words, if Nan Nan really goes abroad to study, he and Nan Nan will not only be in a long-distance relationship, but also in a foreign country. Unless Nan Nan returns to China, it will be very difficult for him to see Nan Nan.
