“My three grandchildren have grown up so much. When will you be going to school?” The three children were clever and adorable. Qiao Dongliang, who had been living simply, found meaning in his life once again at the sight of them. It was as if he was basking in the sunlight.

His younger daughter and three grandchildren were in the capital. He had cut off all ties with Ding Jiayi and did not see her for one whole year. He could not even stand the idea of talking to her.

At the thought that Ding Jiayi instilled hideous thoughts to Qiao Zijin since a young age, sowing discord between him and his daughter, Qiao Dongliang had the impulse of killing Ding Jiayi. It was no wonder Ding Jiayi had no place in her family. His mother-in-law even showed up at his house with her grandchild for the first time simply to scold Ding Jiayi.

Although Ding Jiayi’s mother had a part to play that her relationship with Ding Jiayi turned sour and she no longer wanted to live there, Ding Jiayi was a real piece of work as well. He should not agree to Uncle Lee’s introduction right away without taking some time to find out what kind of person Ding Jiayi was. If so, Ding Jiayi would not have the chance to harm his two daughters.

“We are already in school.” San Bao looked adorable. “San Bao goes to the toddler class. The teacher teaches us to sing, recite poetry, and dance. There are many slides in the school. There are many children as well. All of them are crybabies. They are so noisy!”

“That’ right. They kept crying.” Er Bao agreed with San Bao. He never imagined that there would be so many crybabies in the world. “Xiao Bao is much better-behaved than them. Xiao Bao seldom cries.” Now that there were comparisons, the triplets realized that Xiao Bao was well-behaved and adorable. He was much more obedient than the children in school.

They would rather play with Xiao Bao than with the crybabies in school. “They are full of tears and snot. They are so dirty.”

Er Bao frowned, looking very disgusted. His expression was more vivid and exaggerated than the young actors who performed in skits on the televisions. He was funnier than them. “Are these children so dirty and such crybabies? It must be hard on all of you to study with them.”

“Dad…” Qiao Nan did not know whether to cry or laugh. “The children are sent to school by their parents. They are not accustomed to leaving their parents, so it is normal to cry. Er Bao, San Bao, have you forgotten what I told you? They will no longer cry when they get accustomed to it.” On the first day of school, she took a day off to accompany the three children throughout the day.

When she sent the children to school the next day, they pouted and were unhappy when she was about to leave.

But unlike the other children who ended up bawling, at the very least, the triplets stopped themselves from crying.

Da Bao snorted. “They took such a long time to adapt to it.” It had been almost a month, but some of the children would still cry.

Qiao Nan hugged Da Bao and gave him a kiss. “That is because all of you are much stronger and obedient than the other children. Everyone is different. You may be capable and outstanding, but you cannot ask that the other children are as good as you. Da Bao, don’t you think so?”

Among the triplets, Da Bao was the eldest. The two of them would always take Da Bao as their guide. If Da Bao listened to her, Qiao Nan believed that under Da Bao’s leadership, Er Bao and San Bao would be able to get along with the rest of the children.

Da Bao thought for a while before he nodded. “That’s right. Da Bao, Er Bao, and San Bao are the most obedient and well-behaved children. All the other children cannot compare to us. I’m asking too much of them. Er Bao, San Bao, we have to change our attitude. We must not behave in this manner in the future.”

1

Er Bao and San Bao nodded. They did not rebut and agreed with Da Bao.

“Hahaha…” Qiao Dongliang broke out into laughter. “The three radishes are only toddlers, but they behave in such an interesting manner. You are too mature for your age. What do you mean by ‘I’m asking too much of them’. Da Bao, who taught you that?” He was seldom in contact with children, but he had never seen such a smart and bright child like Da Bao.

Qiao Nan sounded exasperated. “Nobody teaches them at all. These three children are very crafty and cunning. At times, one can be so frustrated that one is at a loss for words. If we are to teach them, one will be driven to nuts by them. Dad, was I like this when I was young? I used to think that they inherited this trait from their father, but my mother-in-law told me that Brother Zhai did not behave like them when he was young.”

She had no recollection of how she was like when she was three years old. But she did not think that she had such behavior.

“You are very obedient since a young age. Very quiet as well, totally unlike the triplets.” Back when he disliked her behavior, he would feel that she was introverted and clumsy at speech. Now that he knew better, Qiao Dongliang knew that this was being gentle and refined. On the contrary, Qiao Zijin had a sweet tongue after she learned how to talk.

Qiao Dongliang did not bring up Qiao Zijin. Although he was obviously reminded of Qiao Zijin, he did not say a single word. After all, Qiao Zijin had a sweet tongue and was good at coaxing people, while Da Bao was sly and artful and would drive people mad with what he said. Da Bao was completely different from Qiao Zijin. Qiao Dongliang would not be so foolish to compare Da Bao to Qiao Zijin, who was unfilial and radical.

“Then, who do they take after?” Since she was not artful and sly when she was a child, Qiao Nan felt all the more perplexed. If the triplets did not take after her and Brother Zhai, then who could it be?

Miao Jing, who sat by the side and smiled secretly, finally decided to solve Qiao Nan’s doubts. “Didn’t you ask me this question not long ago? Back then, I told you that Zhai Sheng and Hua Hua had a different temperament when they were young. Later, the old master told me secretly that when Old Zhai was young, he…” The old master said that Da Bao did not take after Zhai Sheng. Instead, his temperament resembled Old Zhai’s temperament when he was young. Zhai Sheng also took after his father, but Da Bao had a very similar temperament to Old Zhai.

“…” Qiao Nan finally cleared her doubts. It turned out that Da Bao inherited his sly and cocky temperament from his grandfather.

Qiao Nan was surprised while Qiao Dongliang seemed quite happy about it. “It’s good that Da Bao is like the in-law. When Da Bao grows up in the future, you must be a chief like him. How about that?”

“No, must be like Dad!” Er Bao shook his head. “One should use guns like Dad to take down the bad guys. Tatata…” His grandpa would always sit at home while his father would go out to take down the bad guys. He wanted to be like his father. He did not want to be like his grandpa who sat around at home. He would rather go to school and watch other children cry.

Da Bao twitched his nose and fixed his grape-like eyes on Er Bao. He seemed to be shunning him. Finally, Da Bao replied, “I will take care of you in the future.”

Er Bao knew nothing. His grandpa was much more capable than his father. His father still had to listen to his grandpa. Other than his father, many people had to listen to his grandpa as well.
