Chapter 1835: Sequential

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the end, she was afraid to contact her family and did not know how to communicate with them either. That was why the Zhai family misunderstood that Zhai Hua was still angry at them and bore a grudge because they had disagreed to her marriage to Wei De at that time.

But in reality, Zhai Hua’s heart was still for her family.

At the thought of her mother-in-law’s temper, Zhai Hua asked Wei De impolitely whether he had a plan to deal with his mother.

At the mention of his mother, Wei De felt his head hurt a little. Thankfully, Zhai Hua was already out of the military and her temper had improved tremendously. Otherwise, given Zhai Hua’s temper in the past, she would have gotten a divorce from him a long time ago with all the fuss his mom had made.

If so, all of his efforts would truly be in vain. But through this incident, Wei De had gotten a little fearless. After giving birth to their daughter, not only was Zhai Hua unable to leave him, she had even lost all the temper she had had in the past! “I’ll talk to my mom. There shouldn’t be a problem.”

His mom would probably not be so clueless as to be an obstacle to his future.

After hearing about Wei De’s plan, his mom had indeed gotten upset, just like Zhai Hua had expected. “It’s the new year. Our family should spend time together. What do you mean by leaving your dad and me alone while you spend time with another family? If you really treat them as your family, you should invite them over to have a meal with us!”

If her son had not been kind enough to marry Zhai Hua, the Zhai family would have been disgraced by their daughter who could not be married. They were all white-eyed wolves who were full of ingratitude!

“Mom.” Wei De did not say anything, but his tone changed slightly and he looked at his mom with a different gaze. Mother Wei quickly tried to salvage the situation. “Don’t be upset. That’s just what I think. How could I really stop you guys? I’m just upset on your behalf. Did the Zhai family allow you to join them when you guys wanted to join them the last time? I’m just feeling bad for you, son.”

It was only then that Wei De’s expression eased. “Mom, no pain, no gain. I want to fulfill my dreams of becoming a regiment commander. Only then will I be able to help Xiao Wei surpass me.”

In that way, their Wei family would only get better and better from generation to generation. When it came to Xiao Wei’s generation, their family would not be much worse off than the Zhai family even without the Zhai family’s help. Once he became a grandpa, he would be the one who would have made the greatest contribution to the Wei family.

“If you can bear with it, what else can I say? Why don’t you bring Xiao Wei along this time instead of Jiajia? Jiajia is a girl. It’s better for her to stay at home and learn to be docile. Xiao Wei is a boy and has to get to know the world.” A scolding was a scolding, but Mother Wei was clear that her family depended on the Zhai family.

Her son relied on the Zhai family, and more so would her grandson have to in the future.

All along, she had never given Jiajia the opportunity to get close to her maternal grandparents. She was afraid that Jiajia would follow in Zhai Hua’s footsteps and start to hate her son. In that case, she would have wasted money raising Jiajia! Xiao Wei was such a good kid, and it was just as well that the Zhai family had no children. If her grandson caught the eye of the Zhai family, her grandson would have an unbridled future!

That was why Mother Wei did not want to pass up such a good opportunity and wanted Wei De to bring Wei Wei along.

After giving it some thought, Wei De said, “We can bring Xiao Wei along, but we have to bring Jiajia as well.” If they did not bring Jiajia along, he was afraid that the Zhai family would not even be willing to open the door for his family to enter and celebrate the new year together.

Mother Wei thought that her grandson was the best kid in the world and that there was no way anyone would dislike him. But Wei De was still rational and knew that the Zhai family would take a different view toward Wei Wei. As such, he knew that such self-infatuation and confidence would come back to bite him. It was better to remain calm at times like these. Only then would he be able to fulfill his goals and reach the greatest height.

Wei De was not Mother Wei and was clear that the Zhai family’s door might not even be open to them if they did not bring his daughter along. Up until now, the only person that the Zhai family disliked was himself. They still treated their granddaughter, Jiajia, very well. Besides, it would make no sense for him to bring his ‘nephew’ without bringing his daughter along.

It had not been easy for Wei De to come this far, and he was not going to allow such a small error to obliterate his existence in front of the Zhai family. If he exposed everything, his efforts over the last ten years would have been in naught.

His ‘nephew’ was important, but his future was even more so. Only if he was in a stable position and had connections would he be able to help Wei Wei become a second-generation official and have a smooth journey. Besides, Wei Wei was still young. There was no need to rush into certain matters. His own affairs took precedence.

Hearing that her grandson would not be able to go over and only that money-wasting granddaughter would, Mother Wei was upset. Fortunately, Mother Wei listened to whatever her son said when it came to important decisions. There was not a single person she knew that was more capable than her son. It was her son who had allowed the family to live such a comfortable life and let her live the life of a rich old lady, like she had seen on television.

“All right, I’ll listen to you. You can take Xiao Wei along next time when you get the chance. Ah De, don’t forget about Xiao Wei. He’s our Wei family’s only hope. You have to help him.”

Sigh. She did not know whether it was a good thing that her son had found the Zhai family as his in-laws. Now that he was already their son-in-law, shouldn’t the Zhai family do all they could to push him up through the ranks? Once Ah De was in a good position, they could handle Xiao Wei’s matter on their own.

She could not understand why the Zhai family was being so petty and stubborn, refusing to help her son. They were all a family now that Zhai Hua had married their son. After all these years, her son was still a mere company commander. She had always known that her son’s goal was to become a regiment commander.

“Okay.” Wei De was pleased that his mother was no longer going to kick up a fuss. Only when New Year’s Eve was almost over did Wei De tell Zhai Hua. “Have you bought new clothes for Jiajia for the new year? Don’t save on it. Get Jiajia a few more sets of clothes. I’ll send you guys down to Qingshui Town tomorrow for a few days so that Jiajia can spend some time with your parents.”

Zhai Hua looked at Wei De. “Are you serious? Have you talked to your mom about this?”

“Yes, does my mom look like such an unreasonable person? Jiajia has been spending time with her all these years. It’s rare that she’s getting the chance to spend some time with your family during the new year. Of course she’ll agree to it.” Wei De was unhappy. His mom had always been rather reasonable, and he had always been obedient to her.

Zhai Hua sneered but remained silent. That was only natural. The one her mother-in-law loved the most was not Jiajia but Xiao Wei.
