Chapter 2376: Medical Examination
Editor: Atlas Studios
Liu Xiao stood downstairs and did some stretches. The fresh air outside made her feel refreshed. It was so boring in the house and she found it difficult to even breathe every day. Sometimes, she even felt as if she was suffocating.
Xu Tian had not returned home during this period of time, so she had not been beaten up for a long time. This should be a joyous thing but it made her feel afraid because this meant that Xu Tian was very likely to be with another woman and her marriage with Xu Tian was in danger!
Liu Xiao sat outside for a long time and it was already night time when she decided to go home. The moment she entered the neighborhood, she bumped into Cai Ming and her daughter. Liu Xiao looked at them in surprise. She knew everything that happened back then, but at that time, she did not show her face as she hid inside her room. Therefore, Cai Ming did not know what she was.
Liu Xiao definitely did not expect Old Madam Xu’s enemy to be living in the same neighborhood as her! They had become neighbors! How could she miss out on such good news! She went around to ask for more news as she wanted to go all out and annoy Old Madam Xu!
Early the next morning, Qiao Mei received a call from Li Gui. Cai Ming had called up Xu Ba and complained for a long time. Apparently, if they did not get a real household register in the capital, they would keep pestering Xu Ba.
“Don’t tell me they won’t look for Uncle Xu after they get a household register in the capital? As long as they’re still alive, they won’t let the matter rest. This is Uncle Xu’s private matter to begin with, so why is it our family who has to clean up the mess? Mom, let’s not interfere in this matter. You have to live well and don’t let these people affect your mood. If there’s really no other way… I’ll send you overseas for a holiday,” Qiao Mei said.
“It’s not that serious. I’ll be fine. Don’t worry.” Li Gui hung up the phone after saying that.
Qian’e looked at Qiao Mei and asked, “Then what do you plan to do now? Do you want me to get someone to teach them a lesson?”
“There’s no need. It’s not as if my mother really needs Xu Ba. There are other nice men out there. It will be a good thing if Uncle Xu decides to leave my mother for Cai Ming. Then my mother won’t have to suffer in the future,” Qiao Mei said.
Qiao Mei even wondered about whether she would be invited to the wedding banquet if Xu Ba and Cai Ming held one. If that day really came, she would definitely prepare a big gift for all the Xu family members.
“If you need anything, just leave it to me. You must take care of yourself. Do you want to go to Auntie Xia Fang’s place to check on the baby?” Qian’e asked.
Qiao Mei stroked her stomach. She also had this intention since she did not know the gender of the baby yet. Their family already had two boys and a girl. It would be great if this baby was a girl.
However, the rest of the family did not share her sentiment. Most of them wished that she would give birth to a boy again! With the implementation of the family planning policy, this baby would likely be the last child for her and Xia Zhe.
“Either boy or girl is fine with me so long as the baby is healthy. Girls are also very capable and not inferior to boys at all!” Qiao Mei said with a smile.
“That’s right, just like us. None of your three children has a talent for the piano. I hope that this one can play the piano well. I want to have a disciple whom I can develop well,” Qian’e said with a laugh.
“Isn’t it enough that you have my younger sister?” Qiao Mei asked.
“It’s not the same. My wish is that your child will be my successor,” Qian’e said proudly.
Xia Zhe drove all of them to the hospital. It was not only Qian’e accompanying Qiao Mei, but also Xia He, Xu Lan and Xia Wan.
When they drove past the entrance of a school, there was a traffic jam and there was a big crowd. Qiao Mei asked curiously, “What day is it today? Why is everyone gathered here?”
“It’s the college entrance examination,” Xia He said.
“Oh, it’s time for the college entrance examination again…” Qiao Mei said as she looked at the school melancholically.
In the blink of an eye, she had already graduated for a while. She did not expect time to pass so quickly. Many things seemed to have happened only yesterday.
Xia Zhe took a shortcut and they arrived at the hospital very quickly. Xia Fang had already prepared everything. The moment Qiao Mei entered the hospital, she was sent for a checkup and there was no need for her to queue at all.
“Let’s make a guess if it’s a boy or a girl!” Xia He said excitedly.
“I guess… that it’s a boy!” Xu Lan said firmly.
“I feel that it’s a girl. Qiao Mei’s current state looks the same as when I was pregnant with Xia Mo,” Xia Wan said after some thought.
“I think that it’s a girl too!” Xia He said.
Everyone was engaged in a heated discussion except for Xia Zhe. Xu Lan looked at Xia Zhe and asked, “Xiao Zhe, do you want it to be a boy or a girl?”
Xia Zhe smiled and said, “Either is fine. I’m good either way.”
“That’s not an answer!” Xia He pouted and said.
The three women made a bet using a set of pink pearl jewelry as stake. Everyone looked forward to the outcome.
