At this time, it was almost the end of the seventies and the beginning of the eighties.
Aside from the tomboy Zhai Hua, there was only a female, Miao Jing, in the Zhai family. Miao Jing was bullied by Qi Minlan, and she didn’t even have a close friend. Perhaps she was too agitated from Qi Minlan’s bullying that after Old Master Zhai walked out from the sadness of Grandma Zhai’s early passing, Miao Jing handed over her two children for Old Master Zhai to bring up. She stayed by Zhai Yaohui’s side, and as the chief of the army’s wife, she flew around with Zhai Yaohui on business trips.
At that time, outsiders really didn’t perceive the Zhai family to be so glamorous.
Old Master Zhai mentioned this today not to say anything else. It was just that he remembered Grandma Zhai’s crying expression when he got injured. Who would have imagined that Old Master Zhai, who had fought in wars and lived in snowy mountains before, could live to his eighties and watch his three great-grandchildren go to school? However, Grandma Zhai could only see the birth of her two grandchildren.
Old Master Zhai was old. He used to say that men seldom lived to their seventies. Furthermore, Old Master Zhai was already in his eighties. He had really led a long life.
Today, listening to Old Master Zhai mentioning Grandma Zhai’s passing, everyone in the Zhai family felt uneasy.
Old Master Zhai, who had caused the people around him to feel uneasy, didn’t realize this at all. After saying this, he kept his expression. Seeing that everyone was staring at him and not eating, he said, “Why are all of you looking at me? Could it be that I have a flower blooming on my face? I’m old. It’s normal for me to think about the past. Okay, hurry up and eat. If you don’t, the triplets will be too frightened and not eat as well.”
The triplets were still young. Old Master Zhai didn’t feel that they could understand anything. They must have been influenced by the emotions of adults.
Miao Jing looked at Zhai Yaohui worriedly. Old Master Zhai had always been healthy. His mental health was good as well. The problem was his age. After hearing her father-in-law say the words her mother-in-law had said before her passing, she felt cold in her heart, as if it was an ominous sign.
Zhai Yaohui patted the back of Miao Jing’s hand, signaling her not to worry. “What are you looking at? Haven’t you heard what Old Master said? The weather’s hot now. Cold dishes don’t taste as nice as hot ones. Da Bao, eat a little more.” Zhai Yaohui was worried about Old Master Zhai as well. However, Zhai Yaohui couldn’t say anything or ask anything now.
After the meal, Old Master Zhai was the first to return to his room to rest. Qiao Nan took care of the triplets first. After they fell asleep, Qiao Nan went to find Zhai Sheng as she was worried. “Brother Zhai, why do you think the old master mentioned the past when everything’s fine? How about you accompany him tonight?”
With elderly in the family, especially after they had behaved as such, under normal circumstances, the young people at home wouldn’t be able to fall asleep with ease.
“Okay.” Even without Qiao Nan mentioning it, Zhai Sheng had such an intention. The most memories he had when he was young was Old Master Zhai’s back view. When he saw Old Master Zhai looking blissful and sad every time he mentioned Grandma Zhai, Zhai Sheng’s heart became complicated and contradictory.
If it was possible, he didn’t want to be caught in a woman’s hand, like his grandpa. After this woman was gone, his grandpa had almost lost the motivation to continue living. This was simply too scary for Zhai Sheng, who was always calm and rational. It was so scary that he couldn’t imagine the procedure.
He completely couldn’t accept that he would be the same as his grandpa one day. Besides yearning about a woman day and night, he would see the safety of her as more important than his own life. After his grandpa lost his grandma’s company, he often gave Zhai Sheng a feeling of darkness and despair.
How was Zhai Sheng willing to let all his emotions and feelings to be controlled by a woman?
It was just that after seeing the example of Old Master Zhai and Grandma Zhai, regardless of how superfluous Zhai Sheng’s worries were, the nonsensical thoughts he had when he was young became absurd after he met such a person. Wouldn’t it be fine as long as he cherished and protected his own family in a peaceful age?
To meet a woman whom he could love as much as his grandpa did his grandma, it wasn’t a disaster in his life but God’s blessing.
After the couple discussed, Zhai Sheng carried a pillow downstairs to find Old Master Zhai. When he was heading down, Zhai Sheng coincidentally bumped into Zhai Yaohui, who also came out of the room with a pillow. “Dad.”

“Yes.” Both father and son had the same idea. Without having to say anything, everyone understood each other. “I’ll accompany him tonight. You’ll accompany him tomorrow.” Old Master Zhai was already old. Zhai Yaohui had already started to worry about Old Master Zhai’s health condition.
Even Zhai Yaohui was a little shocked at what the old master had said today.
“No, I spend less time at home. If nothing’s wrong with the old master, then that would be the best. If I’m not at home, Da Bao is still young. At that time, you will have to work harder.” Zhai Sheng disagreed. He spent too little time at home. As such, during the time he was around, he hoped to spend more time with his family.
When he was young, he had grown up with Old Master. Zhai Sheng and Zhai Hua’s feelings for the old master didn’t pale in comparison to Zhai Yaohui’s.
“Okay, why are you standing at the door? If you really want to, both of you can accompany him.” Miao Jing heard some sounds at the door. It seemed that Zhai Yaohui hadn’t headed downstairs yet. Donning slippers, Miao Jing came out to take a look and saw Zhai Yaohui and Zhai Sheng standing by the door, discussing who should go and find Old Master Zhai.
“Count with your fingers yourself. Which one of you had spent more time by the old master’s side? If there’s a chance, the three generations should spend more time together. There’s nothing bad to that. Hurry up and go.” Thankfully, it wasn’t winter yet. If it was winter and they were discussing as such, they would first catch a cold before arriving at a decision.
After listening to Miao Jing’s words, Zhai Yaohui and Zhai Sheng looked at each other and felt that made sense. Old people lack companionship. They wouldn’t dislike it if their juniors accompanied them more.
It was rare that the three generations could spend time together. Zhai Yaohui and Zhai Sheng listened to Miao Jing’s suggestions and both of them crept into Old Master Zhai’s room.
Zhai Yaohui stepped forward to take a look at the old master. He lowered his voice and said to Zhai Sheng, “All’s good. The old master’s sleeping well.”

Upon hearing Old Master Zhai’s heavy breathing, Zhai Sheng nodded. “The old master should be snoring in a bit. I’ll make the bed.”
