“Isn’t that so? The children from our family are all good. Nothing will go wrong in the future.”
Soon after Fang Fang received that dress, she came to look for Qiao Nan. It was only until this moment that Fang Fang personally saw that Qiao Nan was not only married but also became a mother of three. “Qiao Nan, you’re so ungrateful. You didn’t tell us that you got married. Believe it or not, our four other dormitory mates will definitely beat you up after they find out about this.”
Fang Fang looked at the triplets in a curious and envious manner. These three children were fair and chubby, had round faces, big eyes, and little red mouths. They were so beautiful. She had not seen such beautiful children before. “You gave birth to all three of them?” Why couldn’t she bring herself to believe it?
“Mom.” San Bao seemed to have understood Fang Fang’s words. She called Qiao Nan, feeling a little unhappy. She reached out her arms and insisted that Qiao Nan carry her.
When Qiao Nan carried her daughter, San Bao buried her face into Qiao Nan’s shoulders and refused to come out. She was not willing to let Fang Fang look at her. She was so pampered.
Qiao Nan patted San Bao’s buttocks as a form of punishment. “Of course I gave birth to all three of them. All in one birth. There are very few kids nowadays. Although I gave birth to three all at once, my in-laws dote on them very much. As such, the three of them have huge tempers. Initially, I wanted to bring them back to meet up with all of you when they are older. All of you will be graduating from college then. Besides calling mom now, they can’t speak coherently. Someone has to be by their side all the time.”
Qiao Nan carried San Bao with one hand and touched Da Bao’s and Er Bao’s heads with the other.
The chubby girl in her arms seemed to have put on a few more kilograms of weight. She could barely carry one child now. Her children were too adept at gaining weight.
Da Bao and Er Bao hugged their mother’s left and right leg respectively. They leaned on their mother’s side and stared continuously at Fang Fang.
“Children nowadays are treasures. They are being referred to as little emperors. It is normal for them to be pampered. In addition, there is only one little princess amongst the three of them. It is understandable that she is doted on more.” Fang Fang also loved children. In particular, Qiao Nan’s children were good-looking and did not cry or kick up a great fuss when they flared up. That made them even more likable.
However, her earlier words seemed to have angered the little girl. Hence, Fang Fang squatted down and looked at Da Bao and Er Bao. “I am good friends with your mom. You can call me Auntie Fang. Can you let auntie carry you?”
Fang Fang only inched closer to the children, and very quickly, she smelled the fragrance of milk. Fang Fang took a deep breath. “Do all babies smell so nice? How old are they? They are still drinking milk?” Fang Fang seemed to be inferring something when she landed her eyes on Qiao Nan’s busts, which had apparently increased by one cup size.
“Which children will drink breast milk at such an age? Don’t behave like an ace student in the school and an idiot after you step out into society. However, they are still taking formula milk. As to whether all babies smell so nice, you can give birth to one and take care of it yourself after you and Gao Yan are married. Won’t you find out then?”
They had not seen each other for three years. Qiao Nan discovered that Fang Fang was more cheerful than before. “You have changed. When we were staying in the old dormitory in the past, you always did a lot but seldom talked. You kept to yourself most of the time. We’ve not met for only three years and you’ve changed so much? It seems that you have been doing very well in college.”
Fang Fang was staring at Da Bao and Er Bao with a tempted look. “Qiao Nan, can you share one of your three children with me so that I can carry one?”
Perhaps the look in Fang Fang’s eyes was too frightening. Da Bao and Er Bao felt panic and fear.
Da Bao kept having the feeling that the way this strange auntie looked at him and Er Bao was the exact same as the way he stared at meat whenever he was feeling hungry.
After thinking, Da Bao swirled his eyes and held hands with Er Bao. They walked to Fang Fang together, opened their hands, and threw themselves into Fang Fang’s arms.
They were triplets and biological brothers after all. Although Da Bao did not say anything, Er Bao could understand what he meant. He collaborated with Da Bao and pounced into Fang Fang’s arms.
Qiao Nan had some arm strength and could carry her chubby girl as she had been trained since she carried the triplets from young.
Fang Fang did not have such experience and training. The two chubby balls landed in her arms. They were nice-smelling, soft, and warm. The feelings were great.
However, when Fang Fang closed her arms and wanted to carry them close to her like how San Bao held onto Qiao Nan with her little hands, Fang Fang then realized that she had overestimated her own ability.
The two children looked short, stout, and small-sized. They were only slightly taller than her calf.
However, who would have known that these two balls were not light at all. Fang Fang straightened her waist but did not manage to carry them. Believing that it was a slip-up, she straightened her waist again but to no avail. At this moment, she had no choice but to admit that it was impossible for her to carry both Da Bao and Er Bao at the same time given her small arms and legs.
Fang Fang was indignant as she smiled at Da Bao and Er Bao. “Auntie has very little strength. Can I carry you one by one?”
She should be able to carry if it was just one child?
True enough, it felt great to carry a baby in her arms.
Da Bao and Er Bao chuckled and shook their heads to express that auntie had to carry them at the same time if she really wished to do so. Otherwise, she could not blame them for not letting her carry them.
“You really won’t let me carry you?” Fang Fang’s eyes lit up further. She found it rare that such young children could understand and even respond to her words. Indeed, they were given birth to by Qiao Nan. They were as smart as her.
Da Bao and Er Bao continued to chuckle and shake their heads. They insisted that Fang Fang carry the two of them simultaneously.
At this moment, even the top student Fang Fang had no other means. Furthermore, Fang Fang, this top student, had nothing to show when compared to the biological mother of the triplets. “Qiao Nan, why do I have the feeling that your family’s children are very cunning? Do you think these two little brats did it on purpose?”
Otherwise, why did they insist that she had to carry them together?
Didn’t they say that children were very sensitive and liked to fight for the love and attention of adults? Wouldn’t she be fulfilling their wishes when she carried them one by one?
If they were to insist that she carry them together, she could only ‘wish’ for it. After all, she was not ‘King Kong Barbie’.
One’s mother knows him best. However, Qiao Nan would never admit it openly. “What nonsense. Why would there be so many deliberate behaviors? When their father was at home in the past, he would carry both of them at the same time.”
