In fact, she didn't really want to make her pregnancy known to everyone, but she knew that Su Manhan was very happy now and wanted to share this joy with others.
Although she knew that if she agreed, Su Manhan would let everyone in the upper class circles of the imperial capital know about it, but she still didn't want the other party to hold it back.
In desperation, she had no choice but to agree to let Su Manhan tell the story.
A smile appeared on Su Manhan's face again. She happily took her mobile phone and took the lead in calling Zhan Yuanshan.
"Dad! Qiao Jing is pregnant! I'm going to be a grandma! You're going to be a great-grandfather!!"
Zhan Yuanshan, who was traveling in other provinces, was sleeping at the moment. When he was woken up by a phone call, he immediately became angry.
After hearing Su Manhan's words, he, who was still angry at first, instantly froze on the spot.
"What? The girl is pregnant? I'm going to be a great-grandfather?"
Su Manhan nodded vigorously, with a smile on her face.
"Yes! Dad, when will you come back to see me?"
After hearing these words clearly, Zhan Yuanshan shivered and became energetic.
"It will take a while for me to go back. Don't worry about this for now. I'm going to be a great-grandfather! Take your mobile phone and let me make a video call with my lovely girl. Let me take a look!"
Su Manhan smiled and hung up the phone, and went straight to Qiao Jing's side. She fiddled with her phone and said:
"I have asked someone to cook bird's nest and soup for you. Even if you are not hungry, you have to take a few sips. Now that the old man knows that you are pregnant, he wants to call you!"
Zhan Nanqing looked at Su Manhan's happy face and couldn't help but complain.
"If you smile again, the corner of your mouth will be shoulder to shoulder with the sun..."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a pain on her forehead.
It was Su Manhan who heard what Zhan Nanqing had just complained about, and without saying anything, she raised her hand and gave him a violent shudder.
"Who are you talking about?"
Zhan Nanqing covered her forehead in pain, hid beside Qiao Jing with an aggrieved look, and whispered:
"You still get beaten if you tell the truth these days."
Qiao Jing smiled helplessly, and from the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the screen of Su Manhan's mobile phone while she was on a call.
"Mrs. Zhan, Grandpa Zhan answered the phone."
Su Manhan let Zhan Nanqing go, handed the phone to Qiao Jing, turned to her daughter and said:
"I'll teach you a lesson later."
Qiao Jing took the phone and saw Zhan Yuanshan's radiant face on the screen.
"Grandpa Zhan."
She didn't even need to open her mouth to chat with Zhan Yuanshan. She could tell just from his expression how happy he was.
Zhan Yuanshan quickly responded with "Hey" several times and looked at Qiao Jing with a smile.
"Dear girl, how are you doing lately? How long have you been pregnant? Why didn't you tell me, an old man?"
He paused and then continued.
"It's not like you don't know how much I want a great-grandson. Are you hiding it from me on purpose? Are you planning to give me a surprise?"
Qiao Jing could hear that although the old man's words were full of accusations, there was no hint of blame.
She pursed her red lips helplessly and replied:
"Grandpa Zhan, I'm sorry, I didn't say anything because of some things. I'm already more than four months pregnant."
Zhan Yuanshan knew that it was not convenient for Qiao Jing to talk about it, so he did not continue to ask the question and changed the topic.
"You haven't told me how your health is! If I hadn't been traveling in other provinces and had a few old comrades here, and wouldn't be able to go back soon, I would have gone back immediately to see my great-grandson."
Qiao Jing looked at Zhan Yuanshan's excited look and was a little worried about his health.
"I'm in good health. Grandpa Zhan, don't get too excited. At this time, aren't you already resting?"
She was worried that Zhan Yuanshan's emotions would be too excited and affect his body, which would result in more losses than gains.
Zhan Yuanshan waved his hand and repeatedly touched his beard.
"How can sleep be as important as my great-grandson? Manhan, take your girl to have a prenatal check-up tomorrow, and take pictures of the checklist and everything for me to see."
He now wished he could spread his wings and return to the imperial capital, but it was rare for him to get together with these old comrades, so it would be inappropriate to go back suddenly halfway.
Fortunately, it didn't take long to go back, otherwise he would have returned to the imperial capital immediately. He couldn't wait to see Qiao Jing's belly.
Su Manhan responded immediately.
"I know dad."
Qiao Jing sighed helplessly and slowly said:
"Grandpa Zhan, I am a doctor. I am in good health. I don't need to go to the hospital."
After hearing Qiao Jing's words, Zhan Yuanshan frowned instantly and spoke with a serious face.
"No! Girl, I know you have great medical skills, but you have to consider that I, an old man who is far away from the province, can only let me see my great-grandson after you have done an examination. If you don't agree to let me go for an examination, then I will
I won’t sleep anymore.”
Qiao Jing looked at the old naughty boy on the other end of the phone and had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, I'll go check it out tomorrow."
Just before Zhan Yuanshan hung up the phone, Zhan Nanqing gave the other party another surprise.
"Grandpa, Qiao Jing is pregnant with triplets."
After hearing this, Zhan Yuanshan's eyes widened and he looked at Qiao Jing in disbelief.
"Girl, is it true? Triplets?! I have three great-grandchildren!!"
Before Qiao Jing could answer, she saw Zhan Yuanshan standing up on the other side of the screen. The screen began to shake, and then the other party's voice came from behind.
"Hey! Lao Zhao, let me tell you, I have three great-grandchildren!"
"Old Liu, I have three great-grandchildren! I remember you only have two great-grandchildren, right? I have one more great-grandson than you!"
"Old Fu! Don't sleep, don't sleep, I'm going to be a great-grandfather!"
"..."
After showing off with his old comrades, Zhan Yuanshan hung up the phone with satisfaction.
Qiao Jing couldn't bear it any longer and burst into laughter.
Zhan Yao also came down from the second floor at this time, and his eyes lit up after seeing Qiao Jing.
He hurried to the sofa, but happened to meet the nanny who was walking towards the soup, took it and put it on the table.
"Qiao Jing, if you feel uncomfortable in any way later, you must tell me."
Su Manhan glared at Zhan Yao with disgust, reached out and pushed him aside.
"Bah, bah, bah! Qiao Jing is not feeling well. Go back to your room and do your own thing. Men are not allowed to interrupt when women are talking!"
Zhan Yao twitched the corner of his mouth speechlessly, but he didn't want to refute Su Manhan's words, so he had to turn and go upstairs.
Qiao Jing looked at everything she encountered today, and a warm feeling passed through her heart.
After Grandpa Zhang passed away, today was the first time she felt at home.
The Zhan family now treats her so well and quarrels like jokes, making her feel like a member of the Zhan family and blending in.
Su Manhan helped Qiao Jing scoop up a bowl of soup and placed it in front of him, ready to discuss something.
As soon as Zhan Qi Pei opened the door, he heard Su Manhan say something like this.
"Why don't you stay in Ziyuan for a while? Qi Pei is a man, and there are certain places where he cannot take care of you so carefully during pregnancy. Especially one month before you are about to give birth, you have to pay even more attention.
You'd better move here to live here, it's more convenient."
