Chapter 1693: Phobia

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Miao Jing was never one to be easily fooled, not even in her old age.

Miao Jing refused without any hesitation. Da Bao and Er Bao were still young and were university students. It was better to put dating and relationships aside until they graduated. Besides, today’s society was all about the freedom to love. She had no requirements for her grandsons’ relationships. She only hoped that they would take after their father and have good judgment in finding girls who would love them back.

As for those girls who were of bad character and came to visit, she could only say that she did not take a fancy to any of them.

If they were really to consider their family backgrounds, would their family have accepted Nan Nan as a daughter-in-law or had the triplets as grandchildren?

If family background was so important, then it should be the Zhai family running around to reserve those outstanding and brilliant young ladies for Da Bao and Er Bao.

The Zhai family did indeed have two grandsons, but she had never worried that her grandsons would not be able to find girlfriends. For people like them, it was better to do without than to settle for something substandard.

After a moment of feeling proud and pouring out her grievances, Miao Jing lifted up her chin and counseled Zhai Xin. “Er Bao, your dad and Da Bao have given you a good start. If you really want to get into a relationship in the future, we won’t bother about the girl’s family background. But when that time comes, you have to think about your mom. A girl like your mom is truly a good young lady, a young lady that you can marry. There’s an old saying that the husband of a virtuous wife seldom suffers misfortune. If a man doesn’t marry well, he’ll be unlucky his whole life. Our family has both positive and negative examples. So if Da Bao or you take a fancy to a girl, you guys had better think it through.”

The positive examples were naturally their maternal grandpa, Zhai Yaohui, and their father, Zhai Sheng. As for the negative example, there was no way Qiao Dongliang could run away from this as the children’s grandpa.

Miao Jing used the most vivid, thought-provoking, and bloody example to remind Zhai Xin to open his eyes while looking for a partner. If he found a good partner, not only would his family be harmonious like his father’s, but their lives would also only get better as days went by. If they were like Qiao Dongliang and did not open their eyes while looking for a partner, their family would break up sooner or later. Even if they stayed together, there would be disharmony and quarrels every day. There would be no peace to speak of. If his partner had a bad temper or a bad character or personality, that would still be all right. The most worrying thing was all these harming the next generation!

That was absolutely unacceptable!

Zhai Xin nodded solemnly. “Grandma, don’t worry. You and Mom are the best positive examples. Zhai Yi and I will find our girlfriends based on the traits of the two of you. I’ve already discussed this matter with Zhai Yi long ago.”

Zhai Xin was not embarrassed and even answered Miao Jing seriously.

In the past, he had never felt deeply for these words. Even if the example of Qiao Dongliang hit close to home, he was not personally involved, after all, and had no way of experiencing his grandfather’s feelings. But after the incident with Zhou Xing, Zhai Xin could not get a clearer understanding of the saying that the husband of a virtuous wife seldom suffers misfortune.

Upon seeing a girl like Zhou Xing, he had only one thought, which was to run away as far as possible. How retarded would he be to jump into another grave the moment he climbed out of Zhou Xing’s?

“Good boy. You have good judgment and a good mindset.” Because her words had been validated by her grandson, Miao Jing was incredibly pleased. Even though her glasses had become thicker and her eyesight had deteriorated, her brain was still functioning well. Humph! It was the Lunar New Year and the children had finally come home for a few days of holiday. If they did not chat with each other and get updated about each other’s lives, what was the point of coming home?

It was for Da Bao and Er Bao to get familiar with those young ladies. If they fell in love at first sight with one of them, their mission would be accomplished. Even if Da Bao and Er Bao did not fall in love with their daughters at once, giving them a chance to meet each other earlier would give their daughters a conversation starter should they ever ‘bump’ into each other in the future.

Well, everyone grew up in the courtyard together. If they were really to talk about it, there was nothing wrong with being childhood sweethearts.

The thought of those flamboyantly dressed-up young ladies angered Miao Jing. The smell of perfume on these young ladies was so strong it made her feel faint. What kind of perfume was this? It was even ridiculously expensive! It was much more like poisonous gas! It was true that every household had heaters in their houses here up in the north. But it was freezing cold outside now. Did they not feel cold wearing such thin clothes under their coats?

It was wintertime, and they chose to wear skirts instead of warm clothing. If women did not pay attention to this area, they would find themselves plagued with a whole lot of health problems once they got older.

Talking about these young ladies, Miao Jing had lots to complain about.

In the past, Miao Jing did not feel much about this matter. It was because the year was coming to an end that she finally had all three of her grandchildren by her side. She had not even spent time with her grandchildren, and now, these neighbors who had no relation to them were ruining this moment for her! Could Miao Jing really stay calm and not get angry?

Miao Jing was just shy of yelling at them about how she was already old and could not stand such a ruckus. If they did not care for their own family reunion, the least they could do was to not interrupt someone else’s!

“Tell Da Bao that those young ladies who have visited our house in the past few days are all your younger sisters. When we talk about familial relationships, these sisters are fake sisters. But when we talk about getting into a romantic relationship, you two must remember that these are your biological sisters! Do you understand?”

“…”

Zhai Xin felt shivers running down his spine. Now, the phrase ‘biological sister’ was enough to send him into a panic. It was like a routine reaction to these words. “I understand. Don’t worry. Da Bao and I will definitely listen to you. They’re all our biological younger sisters. We’ve never had much contact with them, and nothing will develop in the future either.”

“Good.” Knowing that Zhai Xin had completely understood what she meant, Miao Jing burst into a wide smile. With light steps, she brought the dishes out.

Seeing Miao Jing like this, Zhai Yaohui knew that Zhai Xin must have successfully coaxed his wife. Zhai Yaohui could not understand. The two of them had enjoyed such a good relationship while they were younger, but now that they had aged, there was no way he could coax Miao Miao once she got into a bad mood. But the moment Zhai Yi and Zhai Xin returned, Miao Miao would be in a joyful mood and be as bright as a flower without much effort from the boys.

Was his charm of no competition for his two grandsons now that he was old?

The thought of this caused Zhai Yaohui’s expression to darken. No matter how he looked at his grandsons, they were no longer pleasing to his eye.
