Chapter 2150

Since she had already decided to get into the Zhai family and become their daughter-in-law on Qiao Nan’s behalf, it was only natural for Qiao Zijin to do her homework and find out about how her future mother-in-law looked like and the situation in the family. If she didn’t even do that, how would she ever be able to win their favor and get married to Zhai Sheng to be his third wife?

Upon confirming that the woman in the car was indeed Zhai Sheng’s mother, Qiao Zijin bit down on her lip and rushed in front of the car, not even afraid that the car would knock her down. Anyway, the car was driving so slowly and there were so many people at the gate. There was no way the Zhai family would knock her down.

“Hey! What are you doing? Are you trying to fake an accident here?”

It was exactly because they were at the gate that many had seen Qiao Zijin rush up to the car herself, as though she was trying to create trouble for the Zhai family. The Zhai family was not at fault in the least.

Of course, the Zhai family’s chauffeur had managed to brake in time and had stopped more than ten centimeters away from Qiao Zijin. It would be hard to extort the Zhai family in this manner. The driver wound down the window and looked toward Qiao Zijin. “Miss, are you alright? If you’re fine, could you please move aside? Our madam is in a rush to visit someone in the hospital.”

Normally, the chauffeur would not brush the matter off so lightly just because he was a chauffeur for the Zhai family. He would have alighted from the car to check on the person himself. He would never let someone have any material to blackmail him with. But today was different. Because the family had been making soup, Madam Zhai had left the house a little later than usual and she was already in a frenzy. “We have some pressing matters to deal with.”

Even if they wanted to fake an accident to claim compensation, they should look at where they were, at the very least. The chauffeur was not at all afraid that Qiao Zijin would have anything on the Zhai family.

“Comrade, I think there’s been a misunderstanding. That’s not what I’m trying to do. I know that you’re in a rush, so am I. Can I say hello to Auntie? My younger sister is married into their family and I know that she’s currently in the hospital because of her multiple births. I rushed over from my hometown to visit her, but I don’t know which hospital she’s in. I know that my brother-in-law’s house is here, so I came to find their family here.”

Qiao Zijin had not lived all those years in vain. She had even managed to spin such a story! It sounded so endearing. Knowing that her sister was not in a good condition, she did not even wait for her brother-in-law’s family to fetch her and had instead come all the way there to find her sister!

If the Zhai family did not even agree to that, it would just go to show that the Zhai family did not care for relations and looked down on their poor relatives.

Miao Jing did not know Qiao Zijin but her words sounded rather familiar. Miao Jing’s eyebrows furrowed. “You’re a Qiao?” Was this Nan Nan’s elder sister? Just her face made it obvious that she was not a good person to deal with.

“Yes, Auntie, I’m a Qiao. My name is Qiao Zijin. I’m Nan Nan’s elder sister. I know that Nan Nan has been hospitalized, and our family has been worried about Nan Nan, so they sent me to visit her. Auntie, where is Nan Nan? Can I go along with you to visit her? I won’t be able to stop worrying until I see her for myself. Besides, I’m still young. I can take good care of her.”

As long as she spent enough time with Qiao Nan, she would definitely find the chance to speak with her alone to convince her, unless Qiao Nan was uninterested in being a good mom and did not wish for her three children to have a good future. Instead of letting a vixen outside benefit, wouldn’t it be better for Qiao Nan to take good care of her elder sister?

One should not allow benefits created by one’s own work to accrue to others, after all!

At the very most, she would treat Qiao Nan’s three children as her own biological children and dote on them as much as she did Feng Feng. Qiao Nan would not be at a loss with such a deal either. After all, she could not expect Zhai Sheng to remain single for the rest of his life once she passed away!

It was better not to have such unrealistic dreams. She didn’t even hope that Chen Jun would be able to do that. In fact, she had already expected Chen Jun to find a mistress for himself to replace her.

“Oh, so you’re Qiao Zijin.” As much as Miao Jing was in a hurry to get to the hospital, she couldn’t possibly brush Qiao Zijin off so easily because Qiao Zijin’s words could ruin the Zhai family’s and Qiao Nan’s reputations. “You were indeed better fed than Nan Nan. I don’t think it’s strange that you want to visit Nan Nan since you’re her sister. Your results were always poorer than Nan Nan’s, but because the Qiao family could not afford to sponsor the education of two children, Nan Nan had to leave school to provide for your school fees. Not bad. It seems like Nan Nan didn’t work hard in vain. It’s just that you have to buck up since Nan Nan sacrificed herself for you to be a university graduate. Our family doesn’t need anything in return for what Nan Nan did for you, but at the very least, you should be worthy of the effort the country spent cultivating you. As a university graduate, you have to make some contributions to the country and society. It’s boring to stay at home every day.”

Miao Jing was amazed at how shameless Qiao Zijin was. It was nothing much that she had relied on her parents when she had been younger. After all, everyone did so. When she grew older, she had always stepped on her sister’s head and depended entirely on her sister to live a flamboyant life! How shameless!

Now that Qiao Zijin was trying to show concern about Qiao Nan, Miao Jing was not going to believe a single word. If Qiao Zijin was the slightest bit grateful, she would never have tried to make use of the Zhai family’s name to become a civil servant after handing in a blank examination script just earlier that year.

The mention of that made Miao Jing feel that Qiao Zijin was hopeless. Qiao Nan had sacrificed herself and given up the chance of going to university so that Qiao Zijin could be a university graduate. Qiao Nan had always scored well in examinations based on her own abilities. Who would have known that a university graduate like Qiao Zijin would have the guts to hand in a blank script, wanting someone to open a back door for her to become a civil servant?

Did Qiao Zijin really think that everyone in the world was like Ding Jiayi and prioritized her? Wow! She really thought that everyone was her mom!

“Our Nan Nan has been independent all along. When she was younger, she supported you so that you could be a university graduate. Now, she’s finally been able to leave that burden behind and start on her own studies. Of course, we have to thank you for coming to visit Nan Nan, but don’t worry. It’s normal for Nan Nan to be in the hospital since she’s pregnant with triplets. Our family is concerned about Nan Nan, and we all treat her like our precious treasure.”
