Chapter 1225 ‘Baby Brain’ Effec

“Yes. This is San Bao. We have decided on the names for the triplets. Da Bao is called Zhai Yi, Er Bao is Zhai Xin, and San Bao is Zhai Yu. My master helped think of the name for San Bao. My in-laws feel that it is a good name. We have submitted their names.”

Once they had come up with the names, they would be able to record and register the babies under their household register and they would be one complete family. Nobody could gossip about the triplets’ legitimacy or hurt them with their nasty remarks.

Zhai Sheng spent more time in the army than at home. According to deduction, Qiao Nan was pregnant when they were still in Ping Cheng.

Furthermore, the triplets were born prematurely.

They could not stop other people from spreading rumors that were harmful to Qiao Nan and the triplets.

Her babies were so young and they did not understand anything, yet they were already being speculated and maligned by other people. As their mother, Qiao Nan’s heart ached for them. She wished that she could single out everyone who spread rumors and give them a harsh beating.

Thankfully, they had decided upon the names for the triplets. Now that the triplets were registered under the same household register as her, Qiao Nan, who was unsettled, finally set her heart at rest.

Qiao Nan could not hide the happiness in her voice when she told Qiao Dongliang about adding the triplets to her household register. She was thrilled to tell her parents that the triplets were registered under the Zhai family’s household register.

In the future, no one would be able to gossip about the triplets’ legitimacy anymore.

Qiao Nan’s warning was not meant for Qiao Dongliang. It was directed at Qiao Zijin.

Qiao Zijin smiled naturally, as if she could not tell that Qiao Nan was giving her a warning. “Is that so? That is great! The triplets have great names. Nan Nan, when I get married in the future and have children, I will have to seek your advice on the babies’ names. You must help me.”

Qiao Nan sipped the tea and smiled. “Well... I didn’t come up with the names for the triplets. Da Bao’s and Er Bao’s names were given by the old master and my father-in-law. They discussed for a long time before they reached a decision. San Bao’s name was given by my master. He thought of it in no time and gave a very good name to her. San Bao seems to like the name. Therefore, I don’t want to be the bad person, and so we continue to use the name. Dad, the photo...”

“Don’t worry. I will definitely keep them nicely with me.” Qiao Dongliang cherished the photo that he had with him. He looked at it endearingly. One look at the triplets in the photo and he could tell that they were siblings. They had the similar features.

They were his grandchildren. They had great looks. One look and he could tell that they were brilliant and smart. When they grew up and went to school, they would definitely be like Nan Nan, scoring good results in exams.

They had such an outstanding mother and would be just as remarkable.

Qiao Dongliang took out his wallet and put the photo of the triplets carefully into the wallet. He was very careful with it, fearful that the wallet might leave creases on the photo or make scratches on the triplets’ faces.

The photo was meant to be put in the wallet. It fitted just nice into Zhai Sheng’s wallet. Therefore, there was no need to trim it to the correct size to put into Qiao Dongliang’s wallet.

Qiao Dongliang smiled when he fitted the photo nicely into his wallet. He no longer put his wallet inside the pants pocket. Instead, he put them into his shirt pocket, the spot closest to his heart.

One could tell from his action that Qiao Dongliang really liked his grandchildren.

Looking at Qiao Dongliang’s behavior, Zhai Sheng and Qiao Nan did not know what to say. They did not know if they should sympathize with him or feel sorry for him.

One that was pitiful must have a hateful story. The words of our forefathers were never lies.

Qiao Nan could not help but sigh. She could only say that her father brought it upon himself. He had no one to blame.

“Old Qiao, how many dishes do you intend to prepare today?” Ding Jiayi, who had made a detailed count of Zhai Sheng’s presents, came out with a satisfied look on her face. She had a more sincere smile than before.

She thought that the wretched girl would be stubborn and would not show respect for her feelings. She was reluctant to visit them and she would not bring any expensive presents with her. The presents that she prepared for them must be miserly and only to keep up the appearance.

Who would have known that...

That wretched girl was smart.

If the wretched girl had to save on the presents that she brought to her parents’ home, she was certain that the wretched girl did not have a good life in the Zhai family.

“I have bought the ingredients. I can start to fry the dishes. Nan Nan, are you hungry? Shall I fry the dishes now?” Qiao Dongliang made his decisions based on Qiao Nan’s preferences.

Qiao Nan leaned against Zhai Sheng. “Dad, there is no hurry. I just came back from the capital, and I feel slightly giddy. I am not hungry at the moment.”

Zhai Sheng held Qiao Nan’s hands. “You haven’t eaten for the entire day. You have to eat something. Besides, you have to take care of the triplets when you go back. No matter how sick you are, you still have to eat something to replenish the body. If you are really tired, we can go back after the meal and you can have an early rest.”

If Qiao Dongliang did not start preparing the dishes, when would they have the meal with the Qiao family?

If they had an early meal, he and Nan Nan would have completed their mission here and they could go back home where they could feel at ease.

They were being very accommodating, as they wanted to leave as soon as possible.

Qiao Nan smiled bitterly. This was what people meant by the ‘baby brain’ effect.

She felt uncomfortable at her parents’ home. She had no appetite and was unwilling to have a meal with them. However, she had said something that was very foolish and pretentious.

Since she had to have a meal with them, it was better to have it earlier and finish it as soon as possible.

She only intended to have a meal at the Qiao family, and then she would return to the Zhai family’s residence to rest. Before she left for the capital the next morning, she would say her goodbye to the Qiao family. Thereafter, she would take the plane back to the capital with Brother Zhai. They had already made all the arrangements.

After all, the triplets were young and they needed their mother to take care of them.

Moreover, she was not on good terms with her parents and sister. It was the only way to say that she needed to go back earlier to take care of her children.

Once they knew that she had to take care of her children and had to leave as early as possible, no one would be able to say anything. It would also not look bad on the Zhai family or affect their reputation.

“Nan Nan, Zhai Sheng is right. The triplets are young. You have to take care of yourself so that you can look after them.”
