Whatever Qiao Nan used and ate, Qiao Zijin should have it the same. Schools that Qiao Nan’s children attend could not be better than Zhou Ying’s as well.

Since Qiao Zijin had made up her mind, Ding Jiayi didn’t bother stopping her. She had made her decision to live a peaceful life. Qiao Nan had been the only one bearing her cost of living, so she wouldn’t owe Qiao Zijin anything as a mother.

If Qiao Zijin insisted on seeking trouble, it couldn’t be helped.

After clearing her thoughts, Ding Jiayi decided to forget about the mess and take a nap in her room.

Zhou Ying wasn’t satisfied with her grandma’s room. She hated the smell of Ding Jiayi’s room. Unlike this place, her house in Ping Cheng always smelled nice. However, her mother asked her to bear with it for a while. She believed that her mother would bring her to a better place as long as she listened to her.

Qiao Zijin looked for Qiao Nan on the weekend, and Qiao Nan was at home. The three kids were home as well. When they heard that Qiao Nan’s relative came to visit with a child, the Zhai family was surprised. “Relative? Which one? Did she give a name?”

Recalling her son’s wedding with Qiao Nan, there weren’t many relatives that participated on the bride’s side. The sudden appearance of Qiao Nan’s relative piqued Miao Jing’s curiosity.

“I don’t have many relatives.” Qiao Nan frowned. It wouldn’t be anyone from the Qiao family, and Ding Jiayi had cut ties with the Ding family. It’s been two lives, yet she had no idea who her grandparents were.

Therefore, there was no way that her grandparents would find their way into the military and political compounds.

They wouldn’t even recognize Ding Jiayi as their daughter, let alone Qiao Nan. She couldn’t figure out who the relative was.

“She said that her surname was Qiao, and she was Minister Qiao’s sister.”

“...” The Zhai family was at a loss for words. How could Qiao Zijin have the nerve to show up as Qiao Nan’s relative? It’d been years since they’d last met, and everyone thought that they would be living separate lives.

“Mom’s sister?” Da Bao blinked his eyes. “Mom, do you have a sister?” Why had they never heard about their mysterious aunt? In fact, Da Bao had realized that their maternal grandma was never mentioned to them as well.

Due to Elder Lin and Elder Zhai, Da Bao had his guess that his grandma had passed away before they were born.

Before he could figure out the truth about his grandma, an aunt showed up out of nowhere. From Qiao Nan’s expression, Da Bao could feel that his mother was rather uptight about his aunt’s arrival.

Er Bao and San Bao exchanged glances; they could feel the atmosphere turning tense. This had never happened in their family. Who could this person be to wipe off the smiles of everyone’s faces?

“Nan Nan, this is crazy. Let’s just ignore her.” Miao Jing didn’t want to speak of Qiao Zijin’s sordid history before the kids. Cheating as a married woman was something that Miao Jing could never accept.

When she heard the news, she imagined that she would murder Qiao Zijin if Qiao Zijin were her daughter.

It was something that would put everyone to shame!

Er Bao’s mouth was wide open as he realized that his aunt was up to no good. It was no wonder that his mom’s face sank when she arrived. After all, his mom would have told them about her if she was a nice person, and this wouldn’t be the first time that they’d heard of an aunt.

Da Bao glared at Er Bao, signaling him to cut the act. “Mom, do you want to tell us about her? You’ve always said that we shouldn’t be involved in adults’ conversations, but I think that we are old enough to make judgments now. We will not step into the situation, but I think we should at least be aware of it. I do have the confidence that you will settle everything, but I think we should be prepared for any potential trouble in school.”

They didn’t want to be defenseless if someone showed up and criticized their mother.

The kids were not as innocent as before, and they would like to prepare for any possible circumstances.

What if... what if it did happen?

Miao Jing glimpsed at Qiao Nan. “I don’t think it’s appropriate to bring her into the house, but we can’t have her stand in front of the gate all the time. Qiao Zijin really knows no shame. How about taking the conversation elsewhere? I know that you wouldn’t allow her to act up all the time, so don’t promise her anything.” Qiao Zijin always thought of herself as a queen, who could demand anything from others.

How obnoxious!

“Fine.” Qiao Nan stood up. She only carried a purse and left the car keys at home.

After Qiao Nan had left, the children gathered around Miao Jing, waiting for her to tell them about their ‘aunt’.

Miao Jing had no intention of covering up Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi’s ugly doings. If the kids weren’t fond of Qiao Dongliang, Miao Miao even wanted to expose the entire Qiao family. She wanted the children to know about the kind of life their mother had lived before meeting their father.
