The news that the pharmaceutical group had withdrawn the lawsuit quickly reached Qiao's father's ears. He was secretly grateful and immediately turned to his wife to share the good news.
After hearing this, Mother Qiao was slightly moved.
"Then... you have to call them and thank them properly."
Dad Qiao thought for a while and said, "He probably still doesn't want to see us, and we can't embarrass him. Let me write a thank you letter in my own hand and ask him to send it back when the bodyguard comes to deliver the meal."
Mother Qiao nodded and praised: "Cheng Huanran... is indeed a rare and good man."
"Yeah." Dad Qiao said warmly: "Fortunately, with his help these days, our three meals a day and caregiver problems can be solved. I don't have to run in and out to buy things or order takeout, and the three meals a day are delicious and on time.
You have to eat your own meals. The caregivers are also very professional and take care of you all day long, so that I can be free to take care of Xiaohui."
Mother Qiao's eyes flashed with tears, and her words were filled with regret.
"If Xiaohui hadn't become like this... they would definitely be able to get together. A man as good as him is rare in a lifetime... We, Xiaohui, are unlucky children after all."
Dad Qiao glanced at her and whispered: "Why are you talking nonsense again? Our Xiaohui is so smart and beautiful. As long as her illness is cured, she will still be able to find a good man to spend her life with."
"It's just that-" Qiao's mother still felt unwilling, "It's no longer possible to find a good man like Cheng Huanran."
Dad Qiao reminded: "Character and quality are the most important. If we can't find someone with such good conditions, we will try to find someone with similar character to him. For our family, there is no shortage of money or opportunities now, as long as the character is enough
Okay, if it can give us Xiaohui happiness, there is no need to force anything else."
"Alas..." Qiao's mother lowered her eyes and murmured: "That's all we can do. You're right. When conditions cannot allow it, we can only lower some of the requirements and strive to maintain the most important requirements."
Dad Qiao patted the back of her hand and said warmly: "Don't think too much, let's tidy up and we can be discharged from the hospital later."
"That's right." Mother Qiao finally became happy and said: "I will go back to the hotel to take a shower and change clothes first, and then we will go see Xiao Hui together. I brought the scarf for Xiao Hui and let her choose the pattern and color she likes.
.”
Dad Qiao showed a pleased smile and nodded gently.
…
Two months later, Xinyuan
Winter is here, and fallen leaves can be seen everywhere in the back garden. Yellow leaves are everywhere, blown by the north wind and scattered everywhere.
Wang Xiaoxiao held up her protruding belly and was wearing maternity clothes. She was sweeping up fallen leaves with a big broom in her hand.
"Xiaoxiao!" Liu Ying, wrapped in a floral cotton-padded jacket, shouted with squinted eyes: "Go back to the house and rest! Don't sweep it!"
Wang Xiaoxiao raised his head when he heard this and smiled with a row of neat white teeth.
"Grandma! Don't worry! I will sweep it soon."
At this time, Mother Xue stepped out, her steps a little staggering.
"Xiao, don't worry about those rotten leaves. I'll ask the workers to help clean them later. The gardeners will come to work tomorrow, so you can just let them take care of them. You don't have to clean them."
Wang Xiaoxiao chuckled and shook his head: "I have nothing to do anyway, so I just want to exercise my hands and feet."
Mother Xue looked at her protruding round belly and couldn't help but laugh lovingly.
"It's only over four months old, and it's already that big. It's similar to other people's seven or eight months old."
Wang Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed and whispered: "During the pregnancy test the day before yesterday, the doctor said that the child's nutrition was good and he was not too small. Yangyang always asked me to eat more, but I think I have eaten enough."
"You can just eat." Mother Xue narrowed her eyes with a smile and said, "Eat until you are full, eat as little as possible and eat as often as you can."
At this time, a gust of north wind blew, blowing fallen leaves and dust everywhere.
Wang Xiaoxiao quickly stood in front of the old man and urged: "Grandma, it's windy here, you'd better go back to the living room. Don't worry, I can clean it up soon."
"Okay, okay." Mother Xue smiled kindly: "I listen to you, I will go back inside to warm up by the fire first. Don't stay outside for too long. The wind will inevitably cause more dust, which is not good for the babies."
Wang Xiaoxiao nodded and agreed: "Okay! I'll go in after scanning."
"Ah?" Xue's mother immediately disagreed and said: "The garden is a big place, and it will take most of the day to clean it. Just exercise moderately, but you must not be tired. You have been busy with exams recently, so don't be too tired."
Wang Xiaoxiao chuckled, feeling warm in her heart.
"Grandma, don't worry. The exam won't start until next week. I've already reviewed it."
Xue’s mother asked with concern: “Last time I heard that I was going to apply for that one...that one where I won’t go to school for a year, right? Do the teachers and leaders of the school agree? Have you applied?”
"I have already applied." Wang Xiaoxiao whispered shyly: "The counselor and the head teacher have agreed, and I will just wait for the director's approval. I am an athlete, and the school will help in many aspects as appropriate."
Mother Xue smiled happily and said: "That's good, that's good. If there are any difficulties, you must tell your mother-in-law and Yang Yang. Don't hide it, you know?"
"I know." Wang Xiaoxiao explained with a smile: "My parents said the same."
Mother Xue suddenly remembered something and asked: "By the way, where is your mother-in-law? I seem to have not seen her since this morning."
"Oh!" Wang Xiaoxiao replied: "Mom went to the airport to pick up relatives... It seems to be relatives from Rongcheng. The other party seemed to be here to do business. Mom said she would come back with guests in the evening, and she was busy with business today.
"
Mother Xue blinked her eyes and asked: "What relative? Why haven't I heard about it? If it's a relative from Rongcheng, Sister Ying should know about it. She tells me everything."
"Maybe mom hasn't told grandma yet." Wang Xiaoxiao explained: "Mom went out very early. At that time, Yangyang and I were in the gym, and everyone else hadn't woken up yet. By the way, mom said the man's name was Chen Min, and he belonged to dad.
A good brother and uncle Ahu’s cousin.”
Mother Xue suddenly nodded and said: "It turns out to be him! He was also here when you had your wedding before. He is Ahu's cousin. He used to do business with your father-in-law and mother-in-law, and they have always had a good relationship. Wait!
What is he doing in the imperial capital?"
"I don't know." Wang Xiaoxiao answered: "Mom left the house in a hurry. She said she would not go home for dinner today and might eat out in the evening before coming back. She said that Uncle Ahu and Xiao Huzi would also go together. If
When she wants to come back for dinner, she will call the kitchen directly."
"Oh." Mother Xue muttered suspiciously, "I guess there is something important to do."
Wang Xiaoxiao looked at the sky and urged: "Grandma, go back to the living room quickly. It's a bit cold outside, so you shouldn't blow the cold wind here."
"Okay, okay." Mother Xue slowly turned around and staggered back, not forgetting to warn: "You also come into the living room quickly, don't be tired."
