Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief - Chapter 1794

Chapter 1794: The Child Was a Problem

Before the old woman died, she called Qiu Qin to her side and sent her away. Initially, she didn’t think too much of it and really left. It was just that the moment the door closed, she felt that something was amiss and deliberately left a small gap to eavesdrop.

Perhaps the people in the house felt guilty. The old woman was very anxious, as if afraid she wouldn’t be able to finish her words before she died. Before confirming that the door was really closed and she was really gone, they spoke directly. The old woman told Qiu Qin that all these years, she had saved up all the money she had gained from others and from filial piety in the name of her grandson. The passbook was in her room. After she passed on, she hoped that Qiu Qin would send over the money she left behind to her grandson.

Mother Qiu even said that everything in the Qiu family should belong to her grandson and that they shouldn’t let Qiu Chenxi gain anything. She felt that Qiu Chenxi didn’t look like she was going to turn out to be someone good in the future. As such, Mother Qiu said that once the time was right, Qiu Qin must allow her grandson to acknowledge his roots and ancestors, return to the Qiu family, and take over everything from the Qiu family.

Qiu Chenxi’s eyes turned red. “How much did grandma leave behind for that bastard? All that money went into that bastard’s pockets?” Her grandma retired early and had no pension. As such, her grandma’s money was all hers and her mother’s, which was given out of filial piety. She had used their money to provide for the bastard. Indeed, only grandsons had it the best in this world.

Qi Minlan laughed triumphantly. “Six hundred thousand yuan.” She didn’t expect that the old woman knew how to save so much. Based on their filial piety alone, she thought that the passbook would have one hundred thousand yuan at most. Who knew that there was six hundred thousand yuan? “I played some tricks to get all that money out. None of it fell into the hands of that vixen and her son.”

Qi Minlan felt more comfortable in her heart after receiving this six hundred thousand yuan. This six hundred thousand yuan should have included the old couple’s savings as well. Qiu Qin had taken their money to provide for that vixen and bastard. This six hundred thousand yuan could be said to be compensation.

Qiu Chenxi heaved a sigh of relief. “Mom, you’re the best. At this point in time, I can only say that you must find ways to help me with the matter with Zhai Sheng. Tell me. Uncle is no longer around. Do you think Zhai Sheng would be willing to see me and agree to remarry me on account of my uncle?”

Back then, didn’t Zhai Sheng agree to the marriage because of that very reason?

“If you really want to use your uncle to talk about this, your foundation is a little weak. If you could find Shi Qing back to help you, the possibility is higher.” Her brother had died working in the army. In the end, Zhai Sheng was the one who carried her brother’s body back. Her brother was Zhai Sheng’s master and the person Zhai Sheng respected the most. After her brother was gone, her sister-in-law was someone weak. She nearly caused Shi Qing to be bullied to death by the people from her grandmother’s family.

If her brother didn’t die, how would Shi Qing become a child who had lost her father’s love and be bullied by others so miserably? She almost couldn’t even decide on what type of person she wanted to get married to. Was the Feng family trying to marry off a granddaughter? They knew how the other party was like but still insisted on marrying Shi Qing over. That was obviously selling their granddaughter!

Others might not know about this, but Qi Minlan did. Shi Qing didn’t marry and even took on her brother’s old path because Zhai Sheng was helping Shi Qing. Without Zhai Sheng helping Shi Qing behind her back, based on her sister-in-law’s and Shi Qing’s original temperament, those wolves from the Feng family would have long swallowed them whole.

As such, if they really wanted to get someone to intervene, it wouldn’t be enough if the Qiu family alone did so. If Shi Qing was willing to help them out, she could do the job of two.

“I don’t want to call her,” Qiu Chenxi said directly. She was unwilling to ask Shi Qing for help. “Mom, it’s not as if you don’t know that Shi Qing likes Zhai Sheng as well. She had been interested in Zhai Sheng since she was young. Back then, Zhai Sheng was still my fiancé. To be honest, I have always been worried about Shi Qing. Look at how old she is now. Yet, she’s unmarried. Has Shi Qing always been waiting for Zhai Sheng? What if she snatches my man away from me instead of helping me?”

Without Shi Qing causing trouble, it was already very difficult for her to remarry Zhai Sheng. She couldn’t receive any news from the Zhai family recently. It wasn’t that Qiu Chenxi didn’t have any tinge of self-awareness. If one had to choose between her and Shi Qing, even a fool would know to choose Shi Qing.

This would be Shi Qing’s first marriage. Furthermore, she had indeed done something wrong in her marriage with Zhai Sheng. If it was her, she would also be willing to choose Shi Qing, a woman who was clean and could help Zhai Sheng in his career.

In front of Shi Qing, Qiu Chenxi didn’t have any chances of winning at all.

Upon thinking that Shi Qing was old but she refused to get married, she was really worried that Shi Qing was still waiting for Zhai Sheng. If Shi Qing confessed to Zhai Sheng and the Zhai family found out, she was afraid that she would only have to wait for their wedding invitation.

Qi Minlan hesitated for a while. “What you said is correct as well. What shall we do then? My words carry no weight, and neither do yours. The Zhai family isn’t even willing to see us now. How would they be willing to listen to us and let you and Zhai Sheng remarry?”

Qi Minlan sighed and looked at her daughter’s stomach. “Look at you. You’re not young anymore. Why are you doing so many insensible things? If the Zhai family finds out that you can no longer conceive, it would be even more impossible for you to get together with Zhai Sheng again.”

“Then, I shan’t let the Zhai family know about this.” Anyway, the Zhai family shouldn’t have cared much about her situation over the years. “Let’s talk again after I remarry Zhai Sheng. We can talk about things in the future. Both Zhai Sheng and I are old. Perhaps Zhai Sheng doesn’t even want children. A man who wants children is almost forty-four years old, yet he hasn’t remarried?”

If Zhai Sheng didn’t like children to begin with, wasn’t she just right for Zhai Sheng since she could no longer conceive? If another woman got married to Zhai Sheng and had to go with Zhai Sheng’s mentality of not wanting children, how cruel would it be for her to lose her qualifications as a mother even though she was healthy?

As such, based on Zhai Sheng’s situation, it was still better to find someone like her, who couldn’t give birth.

Qi Minlan wasn’t so optimistic. “Fine. These are all in the future. Until now, the Zhai family hasn’t said anything to you. Let’s settle the most critical issue now.” As long as her daughter could remarry Zhai Sheng, there was always a solution when it came to children. However, without this big premise, they would just be overthinking even if they had considered all the problems that would occur afterward.

Once these words were spoken, Qiu Chenxi immediately looked sorrowful. Yes, what method could let her remarry Zhai Sheng so that she could be the wife of the chief?
