Chapter 1509: My Child Is the Best

If Zhai Sheng did apply, it would definitely be permitted since Qiao Nan had the necessary qualifications.

Unfortunately, Qiao Nan had no time to follow the troops.

Among the soldiers’ wives, a woman as successful and busy as Qiao Nan was hard to come by. She had no time to think about her husband all day.

Qiao Nan was the most independent wife among all.

Knowing that Qiao Nan had her plans and lifestyle, Zhai Sheng didn’t want to restrain her. As long as Qiao Nan was happy, he gave her all the freedom she needed. However, this resulted in him spending less time with Qiao Nan.

When he saw his soldiers getting married and bringing their wives and children to the camp, Zhai Sheng was envious as well. He knew very well that this day would not come soon between Qiao Nan and him.

Qiao Nan couldn’t live in the camp, so the only times they met was when Zhai Sheng came home.

The last time Zhai Sheng was back, Old Master Zhai said some strange things. When he visited Elder Lin, he found out that the latter had gastric cancer, which was in its late stage, and that he didn’t have much time left.

The two elders were like two mountains pressing against Zhai Sheng’s heart. In other words, although Zhai Sheng stayed at home for a long time, he didn’t get to spend it with Qiao Nan. After all, worry turned into sorrow when the elders passed, and they didn’t have the mood to do anything else.

When it was time for Zhai Sheng to return to the camp, he didn’t even get to lay a finger on Qiao Nan. As an energetic and healthy man, it was a torture to be away from his wife for half a year.

If he didn’t do anything last night, Zhai Sheng felt that he would have been burned alive by lust. If it weren’t for the old master’s teachings, it would have been wilder.

Zhai Sheng didn’t think that he did anything wrong.

“…” Zhai Sheng’s expression was as if he had toned down a notch, and Zhai Yaohui found his shamelessness absurd. What’s there to be proud of? When he was young, he was way better than him!

However, Zhai Yaohui’s expression soon froze, and a hint of grief was written on it. “It’s good that they are reunited.” Otherwise, Old Master Zhai would have been alone with no one around.

Recalling his mother that passed away long ago, Zhai Yaohui could still feel the pain. The day would come eventually for him as well, and Zhai Yaohui realized how hilarious it was to be quarreling with his son. It was no wonder that Miao Jing thought he was more childish than Da Bao.

Time treats everyone equally, and that includes Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin, who lived in Ping Cheng. “Look, Zijin, is the woman on the news Qiao Nan?” Ding Jiayi was watching the news on TV, and she hurriedly called Qiao Zijin over.

“What is it? Why do you have to wake me up? Don’t you know that I have to go out later?” Her body was exposed under a thin nightdress. Qiao Zijin yawned as her eyes followed Ding Jiayi’s finger. Her face turned pale for a moment, but she soon came back to her sense. “Yes, it’s Qiao Nan.”

How many years had it been?

Qiao Zijin realized that she couldn’t recall the last time she had met her. When she was a child, she wished every day that Qiao Nan would disappear, and Qiao Zijin would be the only child. When the day finally came, Qiao Nan wasn’t the only one missing. Qiao Dongliang left with her as well.

That was different from her childhood dream.

“Is… is she?” Ding Jiayi couldn’t even get her mind straight. “Did she become a politician? Did she really make it into the executives? Impossible! No way!” Qiao Dongliang was so successful, but he couldn’t even become a battalion commander. How could someone like Qiao Nan find her way to the seat of a government executive?

“Mom, can you even read? Are you deaf? She’s just a minister of foreign affairs! What’s so amazing about that?” Qiao Zijin spoke against her heart. “Also, she’s just lucky to marry into a good family. Her husband was already a regiment commander, and he would probably be taking over his father soon. Qiao Nan can get anything she wants with such a background.”

Qiao Zijin was saying that Qiao Nan’s achievements were all thanks to marrying into the Zhai family.

Ding Jiayi wasn’t stupid. “This is not an easy position to get. The news said that Qiao Nan is the first female minister in our country. She’s the first!” Even if she couldn’t understand the rest, she knew what the word ‘first’ meant. She knew about the female emperor in the past, and she figured Qiao Nan would be something like that.

“Is Qiao Nan stepping up now? I saw nothing in her when she was young. She was all scrawny and quiet. How could a kid like that turn out successful?!” She could never imagine the status of an executive of the central government.

The highest expectation for Qiao Dongliang she had was only a battalion commander. Qiao Dongliang couldn’t reach that goal in the end, but Qiao Nan became the kind of person that she dreamed of. That was something that she would never have imagined.

If it were in the past, it would be like sending the butcher’s child to the emperor’s office.

When she realized that a child of such status was her daughter, she couldn’t hide her laughter. “Hahaha! Those women in the Ding family always mocked me for not having a son. They said that I would have no one to send me off. What now! Who else can give birth to a child as successful as mine?”
