Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief-Chapter 2443

As a good child, after finding something delicious that he liked, Er Bao wanted to bring it home and share it with his grandpa and grandma.

Thankfully, Zhai Yaohui and Miao Jing weren’t diabetic. They could still eat sweet potatoes, which weren’t particularly low in sugar. “Alright, the three of you can pick the sweet potatoes so that Dad can bring them back for Grandpa and Grandma to eat.”

The children missed the elders in the family and even wanted to share with them the good things they had found. Qiao Nan was naturally supportive of this good habit and encouraged the three children so that they could maintain this in the long run.

After getting their mom’s support, the three children started to chew harder. Yes, they were delicious.

As such, the first meal of this family of five in the mountains was spent eating sweet potatoes happily.

Compared to the good atmosphere during the day, there was still a slight problem at night.

The mountains were really different from the city areas.

What was the huge difference?

In the city, because of the lights from the shops and street lamps, light could still be seen even when it was dark.

The three children were long accustomed to a bright living environment whenever they opened their eyes. They naturally felt uneasy when they suddenly came to the mountains.

The bulbs in the mountain were not as advanced as those used outside. As such, they were yellow and not bright enough.

Basically, when it reached seven or eight in the evening, the outside of the house became so dark that nothing could be seen. How would the children not be afraid of this situation?

San Bao kept hiding in Qiao Nan’s arms and refused to look at the situation outside the house. “It’s dark. San Bao’s scared. Don’t go out. There are monsters outside that will eat you.”

Da Bao didn’t say anything. However, he had a look of resistance. Er Bao learned from San Bao and didn’t want to get down from their mom.

It was more troublesome when it was time to sleep at night. San Bao was so frightened that she didn’t want her parents to switch off the lights. Once they did so, she would cry.

The helpless Qiao Nan could only hug her in her arms and coax her to sleep.

After they were more than a year old, the three children had their own room. They would only sleep together with Qiao Nan on the big bed occasionally.

In order to get the three children used to sleeping on their own, even if they slept with her occasionally, Qiao Nan would try not to hug them when she was sleeping.

However, this wasn’t possible today.

Qiao Nan opened her arms and San Bao naturally rolled into them. Her chubby hands held onto her mom’s clothes tightly.

Qiao Nan patted San Bao. “San Bao, be obedient. It’s time to sleep. Children have to sleep more to grow taller and more beautiful. Dad and Mom are by your side. What’s there to be afraid of?”

Qiao Nan put an arm around San Bao and coaxed her to sleep. She placed another hand on Er Bao’s body, touched Da Bao’s face, and then patted Er Bao’s body again.

After getting his mom’s touch, Da Bao’s heart became settled.

Alright, since he was far from his mom and couldn’t get her hug, he would make do with sleeping with his dad tonight.

When Da Bao leaned in close to his dad, he felt extremely safe. Even without his mom’s hug, Da Bao fell asleep very quickly. At this time, Da Bao couldn’t help but admit that his dad was still good at times.

“Brother Zhai, let’s sleep as well.”

Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng only dared to sleep after confirming that the three children were asleep.

Adults were different from children. It was pretty easy to fall asleep in such an environment. After all, adults could adapt better than children.

As parents, they couldn’t abandon their children who were afraid and wanted to cry and fall asleep first.

“Yes.” After Zhai Sheng, who was sleeping on the outermost side, responded, he tilted his body to the side and let Da Bao lean on his arms. He also stretched out his long arm to hold Qiao Nan’s hand, which was on Er Bao’s body.

Qiao Nan hesitated for a while. “With both our hands on Er Bao’s body, would Er Bao feel tired?”

“…” Zhai Sheng was already unhappy that he couldn’t hug his wife to sleep and that there were three sound-asleep children in between them. He was just holding his wife’s hand. If that wasn’t allowed, it would be too overboard. “It’s fine. The boys in our Zhai family are tough. Furthermore, isn’t he not afraid anymore? If we place both our hands on him, he might even sleep more securely.”

So, it was really better to have fewer children.

If they only had a child, even if the child was in the middle, he could still hug Nan Nan.

If they had a boy, Nan Nan could sleep in the middle and the child could sleep in the innermost. That way, he could hug Nan Nan to sleep and Nan Nan could hug the child to sleep.

No wonder the country had advocated for a single-child policy from so many years ago. It was obvious that having a single child was more conducive to the harmony between husband and wife. How was it like their family now…

Upon seeing the three children between him and Qiao Nan, Zhai Sheng felt very sad. Could they really not just send one or two children away?

Children were debts!

After feeling sentimental, Zhai Sheng fell asleep quickly.

In the middle of the night, Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng were awakened by a soft cry at the same time. Qiao Nan felt that someone was moving in her arms and touching her face.

Qiao Nan hugged San Bao and asked softly, “San Bao, what’s wrong? Why did you cry? Did you have a nightmare? Don’t be afraid. Mom’s here. Dad’s here too. So are Da Bao and Er Bao.”

“Sob…” 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

San Bao still cried. “Mom, San Bao became blind. San Bao can’t see Mom anymore. San Bao also can’t see Da Bao, Er Bao, Grandpa, Grandma, Aunt, and Dad anymore… Sob. San Bao’s frightened. What should I do?”

Upon hearing San Bao say a long list of names but his was the last, Zhai Sheng was angry.

The order in which his daughter said these names was probably the order of how much importance she placed on each individual.

What else could Zhai Sheng say after knowing that his daughter placed him last? He could only take the flashlight out and switch it on. His daughter actually thought that she was blind. What a stupid child.

“Don’t cry. If you continue crying, Da Bao and Er Bao will be awakened as well. Don’t be afraid. Our San Bao isn’t blind…”

As Qiao Nan finished speaking, Zhai Sheng took out the flashlight under the pillow and switched it on.

With the yellow light from the flashlight, San Bao, who was rubbing her eyes and crying in her mom’s arms, was stunned. She realized that her eyes seemed to have recovered and she was no longer blind. She could see her parents’ faces and her own hands. “Mom, San Bao isn’t blind?”

When she woke up just now, she obviously couldn’t see her mom, Da Bao, or Er Bao.

“It was pitch black just now. I couldn’t see anything. It was scary.” As she leaned in her mom’s arms and looked at her dad, San Bao continued, “There are a lot of strange noises outside. San Bao’s scared.”
