Chapter 2106: Help Me

However, when the target became Qiao Nan, Ding Jiayi naturally didn’t have the mood. “Zijin, you want to… It’s impossible. Don’t think about it.” That wretched girl wouldn’t agree to it. If she didn’t put pressure on Chen Jun’s matter back then, based on Chen Jun’s feelings for that wretched girl, it was highly likely that Zijin’s child would be aborted and Chen Jun could only become Zijin’s brother-in-law.

The situation was like that for Chen Jun, let alone Zhai Sheng, a man who was not easy to control. Twenty years ago, Ding Jiayi successfully helped Qiao Zijin double-cross Qiao Nan by snatching away Chen Jun, Qiao Nan’s boyfriend, to become Qiao Zijin’s husband. However, twenty years later, Ding Jiayi wasn’t confident that she could do what she had done back then again.

It was different. It was completely different.

When Chen Jun was dating Qiao Nan, he even treated her as an elder to be respected when he walked around the Qiao family’s house. Now that Zhai Sheng was her son-in-law for half a year, aside from that time when Old Qiao was hospitalized, Zhai Sheng never treated her as his mother-in-law. He never came to see her or care about her.

Ding Jiayi didn’t forget the shameful experience of being stopped several times when she wanted to go to the Zhai family’s house. Although they didn’t say it explicitly, Ding Jiayi understood it in her heart that the Zhai family never treated her as a relative. Under such circumstances, how was she able to let her elder daughter marry Zhai Sheng after Qiao Nan’s death?

It wasn’t the ancient times of feudalism. How could the elder sister marry her brother-in-law after her younger sister’s death to take care of her husband and children? That was absurd.

“How do you know it definitely won’t work if you don’t try? Qiao Nan is already forty years old this year. Giving birth to a child at this age is already more dangerous than what an average pregnant woman faces. Furthermore, she’s pregnant with three children. It’s highly likely that she wouldn’t survive that stage. Compared to an outsider, could it be that I, her birth sister, am not as trustworthy? I dare to swear that I would definitely take good care of her three children and wouldn’t do anything to them. What she doesn’t need to worry more is that it is already so dangerous for her to give birth at the age of forty and I’m two years older than her.”

“If I were to marry into the Zhai family and become Zhai Sheng’s wife, based on my situation, it’s impossible for me to give birth to a younger sibling for Qiao Nan’s three children. No matter how wishful my thinking is, I won’t be so naive to think that Zhai Sheng will be willing to give everything of the Zhai family to my Feng Feng when he has three children of his own to dote on. I don’t ask for much. Once she dies, I’ll raise her three children. Before she dies, she just has to tell Zhai Sheng to take care of Feng Feng more in the future and that when educating the three children, for them to be closer to my Feng Feng.”

There was nothing wrong with this.

After she married Zhai Sheng, Feng Feng would no longer be the triplet’s cousin. Instead, he would be their brother. How wonderful it was to have four children looking out for one another. Their Qiao family was at a disadvantage as they had a weak foundation and they didn’t have many relatives at home who could help. However, this would not be the case in the future. These four children would help one another. Their Qiao family could be considered a big family in the future as well.

“Mom, believe me. This time, I’m really doing this for our Qiao family. After getting a divorce from me, Chen Jun had to remarry a younger girl, let alone a person like Zhai Sheng. I cherish my life and won’t be having another child. If Zhai Sheng remarries a younger woman, won’t she give birth? Once that woman has her own child, how could she treat Qiao Nan’s children well? She would definitely hope for Qiao Nan’s children to die sooner. I only have a small conflict with Qiao Nan. She’s about to become a mother as well. Compared to our children’s safety and happiness, what’s that little grievance we had before? She would understand my painstaking efforts and agree to this.”

That was because Qiao Nan didn’t have a reason to disagree!

This was already the best possibility Qiao Zijin could think of after Qiao Nan’s death. Who should take Qiao Nan’s position and bring the best possible future to Qiao Nan’s three children? It was proven that as long as Qiao Nan let Zhai Sheng marry her, Qiao Nan’s three children would be safe.

“…Is that possible?” Ding Jiayi was a little confused by Qiao Zijin. She secretly felt that Qiao Zijin’s words seemed to make some sense. One didn’t allow benefits created by one’s own work to accrue to others. Rather than letting others benefit from a good son-in-law like Zhai Sheng, they might as well let someone of their own benefit.

Furthermore, this time was different from Chen Jun in the past. Qiao Zijin couldn’t be considered snatching Zhai Sheng away from Qiao Nan. It was that Qiao Nan didn’t have a good life. It was difficult for her to marry a good husband like Zhai Sheng. However, she had to be unlucky and be pregnant with three children at once, leading her to her death.

“It is! How is it not possible? I…” Qiao Zijin took a deep breath and told herself to be steady. This time, she, Qiao Zijin, was about to be given a new lease of life, and she would let everyone’s glasses fall to the ground. “Mom, have you forgotten what kind of person I am and how my temper is? I admit that compared to Qiao Nan, my temper is not as good as hers and I have a much stronger personality. I’m selfish and only think for myself. However, in the face of Feng Feng, my son, haven’t I given in?”

“The relationships among me, Qiao Nan, and Chen Jun are too sensitive and complicated. How I hated Qiao Nan in the past. I would definitely not let Qiao Nan have a chance to get together with Chen Jun. However, you know as well that not too long ago, for the sake of Feng Feng, I’d already compromised and was willing to return Chen Jun to Qiao Nan. I was willing to let Qiao Nan have the chance to lead the life of a rich young lady and gain everything that I’ve lost. Did I really do this so that Qiao Nan could lead a good life? I just want Feng Feng to be well. For the sake of my child, a person like me could care less about Qiao Nan. Qiao Nan has a better temper than me. In front of the children, it’s only right that she should be able to do more than me and sacrifice more than me.”

She wasn’t a good mother and person. Qiao Nan would definitely do the things that she could think of and do and be willing to do so. There was nothing more important than one’s own children.

Ding Jiayi was convinced by Qiao Zijin. “Okay, since you’re so confident, work hard.” Compared to Qiao Nan marrying Zhai Sheng, it was naturally better for Qiao Zijin to marry Zhai Sheng.

When she first heard that Qiao Nan was going to marry Zhai Sheng, Ding Jiayi’s first reaction was why the person marrying Zhai Sheng wasn’t Qiao Zijin but Qiao Nan. As such, Qiao Zijin’s words were in sync with what Ding Jiayi wanted.

“Mom, help me!” She knew that her mother would agree to this. Only her mother understood her well. “I want to marry Zhai Sheng and help Qiao Nan take care of the three children. The most crucial thing is that Qiao Nan has to put in a good word for me in front of the Zhai family so that I can gain more impression points. Only Qiao Nan could help me succeed in this marriage.”
