On the wedding day, she married her ex-boyfriend's brother while pregnant

Chapter 233: A Peach Blossom That Can Bring Good Luck to You

"Aren't you preparing a room for Jingbao? Why did you buy a stroller? Do you want my precious great-grandson to lie in it and suck on a pacifier? Relive the good old days of his childhood?"

After saying that, Mr. Xing looked at his daughter-in-law Xie Qiong who was pouring tea for his wife across from him.

Hearing her father-in-law's question, Xie Qiong paused while pouring tea in the small living room on the third floor, but her face remained calm.

After pouring tea for her mother-in-law, she glanced through the floor-to-ceiling window at Song Ma who was directing the servants at the elevator entrance on the second floor before replying to the old man.

"Dad, this isn't for Jingbao. I just want a good omen."

"What's a good sign?"

Xie Qiong also poured herself a glass of top-grade Wuyi Dahongpao, sat down and sighed: "Hey! It's all because of Mingyu's marriage. You know, I only have one son now, but he's thirty years old and still not married! It's so worrying that my mother and I can't sleep at night!"

"Well, I've been into metaphysics lately. Some time ago, I asked a master to do some calculations, and he said that decorating the baby's room in advance can help to bring good luck to the couple, so I asked Song Ma to decorate it."

Xie Qiong explained carefully, trying to appear sincere.

After all, Mr. Xing had a sharp eye like an eagle. He had been a superior for most of his life, so he could see through low-level lies without much effort.

Fortunately, for the sake of her son's lifelong event some time ago, she did invite a master to her home, and she also sincerely worshipped the statue of Guanyin for a period of time. Old Master Xing also knew about this, and now that she was bringing it up as an excuse, she would not feel completely guilty.

When Mrs. Xing heard her daughter-in-law talking about Feng Shui, she had an idea, took a sip of tea, and agreed.

"That's great. For the sake of my precious grandson's marriage, I suggest that we don't put the crib in Jingbao's new room, but directly prepare a new baby room, preferably one for a boy and one for a girl. I hope that when Mingyu gets married in the future, he'll be born with twins, a boy and a girl, just like his brother and sister-in-law!"

Hearing her mother-in-law speak up, how could Xie Qiong not join in the fun?

He immediately said, "Mom, what you said makes sense. I'll ask Song Ma to decorate the two baby rooms later."

Seeing that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law spoke seriously and did not seem to be lying, Mr. Xing retracted his sharp gaze.

Then he imagined the scene of his precious grandson welcoming Huang Xiaoxiao into the family, and the two of them getting pregnant and giving birth to twins. The wrinkles at the corners of the old man's eyes deepened: "Well, Mingyu is a stubborn child. If this can make him want to get married, it will be a good thing."

Mr. Xing took a sip of tea, and suddenly, he thought of something and put down the teacup.

"By the way, speaking of Ming Yu's marriage, I forgot about looking for Xiao Xiao. Last time, Xiao Chen said she would come to the courtyard to see me, but I was so busy firing porcelain that I didn't have time to look for her. Xiao Chen, help me up quickly. I want to go back to my room to call Xiao Xiao."

The old man ordered, so driver Chen quickly helped the man up and whispered to him, "Okay. Slow down."

Old Master Xing's movements were not fast, but there was a hint of anxiety on his usually calm face, and he was muttering to himself.

"Don't worry about me. Go get your phone. Oh, I also made a set of tea sets for her. Send someone to deliver it to the Huang family and tell them that it was sent to her."

The master and the servant walked out while talking, and soon they were out of the living room.

Looking through the floor-to-ceiling window, Xie Qiong held her forehead and looked at her father-in-law's back as he hurriedly called Huang Xiaoxiao, feeling very distressed!

The father-in-law has already decided on Huang Xiaoxiao as his granddaughter-in-law and even made a set of porcelain for her himself. He only wants to bring the second daughter of the Huang family together with Xing Mingyu.

But the old man is very kind to Jiang Qianxun...

She heard from her mother-in-law that the old man was very unfriendly to Jiang Qianxun last time in the century-old store.

This is how to do?

Compared to Xie Qiong's headache-inducing look, Madam Xing was much calmer. She used her left and right thumbs and index fingers to support the cup, and her middle finger to prop up the teacup, like three dragons protecting a tripod.

He fiddled with the tea lid in his right hand for a few times, tasted the tea elegantly, and then said calmly: "Why are you in such a hurry? The old man just can't figure it out for the time being. After a few days, he will be able to see clearly."

"But Chihiro's belly is already six months old. It's not a good idea to let dad continue to match them up like this. I'm afraid Chihiro will misunderstand something again." Xie Qiong's eyes were full of worry.

Her son and Chihiro had already had an incident last time. Although she didn't know what happened between them or how they reconciled, she felt anxious for her son every time she thought of his depressed and anxious look at that time.

She doesn't want it to happen again between the two children!

"Mom, how about we try to confess to Dad?" Xie Qiong suggested.

Old Lady Xing put down her teacup and shook her head. "It's not the right time yet. Grandpa's heart has not been very good in recent years. He has had five checkups and just came back from the sanatorium some time ago. The doctor said he can't get angry. We can't openly go against him. That Xiaoxiao, he has watched her grow up since she was a child, and she is the baby he pampers in his palm... The relationship between grandfather and grandson is too deep."

Thinking of the old man's illness, Xie Qiong had to give up the idea.

"Then we can only wait for Dad himself, or let the second young lady of the Huang family give up voluntarily. Oh! I really hope Qianxun is the second young lady of the Huang family, so that I don't have to worry about it." Xie Qiong sighed.

Madam Xing's wise eyes flashed with a hint of joking: "I heard that the Jiang family treated little Xunxun very badly. Maybe she was really picked up by the Jiang family and is the long-lost daughter of Huang Jingyi."

Xie Qiong thought her mother-in-law was just trying to comfort her, so she just smiled and didn't take it to heart at all.

Thinking that she still had to set up a baby room for the two babies in Jiang Qianxun's belly, she simply got up and went to find Song Ma.

So, in the following days, the main work of the Jiang and Xing families was to take care of their children.

Decorate the baby room, buy baby clothes, shoes and socks, both for boys and girls, make an appointment with the Xing family's former confinement nanny in advance, and prepare top-notch products for postpartum care.

During this period, news came from Xing Mingyu that his business trip abroad would be extended for ten days and he would not be able to return until New Year's Day.

When she received the message, although Jiang Qianxun missed the man in her heart, she didn't feel disappointed for long because she was busy, and soon she was immersed in the busyness again.

However, Old Madam Xing really missed Jiang Qianxun, so while the old man was looking for Huang Xiaoxiao, she sent someone to bring Jiang Qianxun to the courtyard to treat her to a meal.

When Jiang Qianxun received a call from Madam Xing, Qin Chuan just sent two WeChat messages.

Qin Chuan: [Qianxun, New Year's Day is in ten days. My parents want us to have a meal together and take pictures like we did during the Mid-Autumn Festival.]

[But I respect your choice, Qianxun... Can you spare some time today so we can meet and talk? ]

Looking at these humble words, Jiang Qianxun found it hard to imagine that Qin Chuan, who used to be so aggressive when he spoke, could be so calm and even speak to her in a humble tone.

But she no longer cared what Qin Chuan became.

It's just... about having dinner together on New Year's Day...

Jiang Qianxun was hesitating when thinking about the cooperation between the Jiang and Qin families. That's when Madam Xing's phone rang.

"Grandma." Jiang Qianxun smiled when she saw that it was an old lady who was very kind to her.

"Xiao Xunxun, last time you said you would accompany me when you came back from the countryside, it seems you haven't fulfilled this promise yet."

Listening to Mrs. Xing's elderly and slightly coquettish tone on the phone, Jiang Qianxun remembered that she had indeed promised the old lady this before returning to the countryside.

But after she came back, she was so immersed in the joy of meeting Jian Shulin that she forgot everything else.

It just so happened that last time, Old Lady Xing gave Aunt Zhao a gift, and Aunt Zhao also gave back some local specialties, which she would take over.

"Sorry, grandma, I was so busy that I forgot. How about I go to the whole courtyard today?" Jiang Qianxun suggested.

"Okay, okay! Today, grandma will be waiting for little Xunxun to come home." Old Madam Xing was very excited.

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries before Jiang Qianxun hung up the phone. He immediately told Aunt Lan to prepare gifts and Uncle Nie to get ready to leave for the whole courtyard.

She went downstairs wearing a thick cotton coat.

It's winter now and it's snowing, so it's really cold outside.

When she reached the door, Jiang Qianxun suddenly remembered that she had not yet replied to Qin Chuan.

She stopped and thought about it, and finally replied.

[No need for that. Zhao Xi is pregnant with your child, so the one who accompanies you during the festival should be Zhao Xi. As for how to arrange it so as not to reveal your secrets to netizens, that is your business and has nothing to do with me.]

After sending the message, Aunt Lan and Uncle Nie were also ready.

Jiang Qianxun no longer paid attention to Qin Chuan's message. She pulled the brown scarf around her neck between her lips and nose to prevent the cold wind from entering.

With the help of Aunt Lan, he stepped on the thick snow in the courtyard and got into the car.

As soon as I sat down, Qin Chuan's reply message came.

[Qianxun, listen to me and read every word I send you. I have already started to deal with Zhao Xi's matter. Can you trust me? I will definitely handle it. But the New Year's Eve dinner is related to the interests of the Jiang and Qin families. Don't deny it outright. I will be at your house in ten minutes, and we will have a good talk then.]

Having seen Qin Chuan's paranoia, it was not difficult for Jiang Qianxun to imagine his expression when he typed this line of text.

But there's really no need to find excuses to come to her.

This time, Jiang Qianxun was too lazy to even reply to the WeChat message. She simply put down her phone and closed her eyes to rest.

......

Half an hour later, the black Maybach stopped in front of the main house in the courtyard.

Just like last time, Xie Qiong and Old Madam Xing were still standing at the door waiting eagerly.

Seeing Jiang Qianxun about to get out of the car with her pregnant belly, Xie Qiong came over and carefully helped her.

"Chihiro, the snow on the ground is slippery, be careful."

Jiang Qianxun didn't dare to let Madam Xing greet her in person, so she quickly got out of the car and took the initiative to hold her hand instead of asking her to hold her. The two of them exchanged greetings while helping Madam Xing into the house together.

As soon as she entered the house, Song Ma and others surrounded her and served her.

Song Ma took her coat and hung it up for her. Other servants took off her cotton boots, handed her a pair of furry shoes, and some were already waiting there with snacks and juice.

Seeing everyone so enthusiastic, Jiang Qianxun felt a little uncomfortable.

But she had no room to refuse. Ten minutes later, she was surrounded by people and sat down on the leather sofa in the living room.

Seeing that their future granddaughter-in-law, whom they hadn't seen for a while, had a growing belly, Madam Xing and Xie Qiong were both surprised and worried!

The most surprised person, of course, was Old Madam Xing. She sat in the main seat with her hands folded on the top of her cane, looking Jiang Qianxun up and down with a smile in her old eyes.

"Xunxun's belly has grown so big. That's great! In a few months, grandma will be able to see my two precious great-grandchildren!"

Xie Qiong was more concerned. She pulled Jiang Qianxun and looked at the man carefully. There was happiness and worry on her face.

"But the bigger the belly is, the harder it is for pregnant women. With two babies pressing down on your belly, it will be the most uncomfortable! Qianxun, you have to use the belly support belt. Fortunately, I bought several before."

As she said that, she turned around and told Song Ma who was serving them tea: "Song Ma, go to my cloakroom and get it for Qianxun to choose."

"Yes!" Song Ma went there quickly.

Jiang Qianxun had never really thought about buying a belly support belt.

To be precise, she didn't even know what a belly support belt was. She felt warm at heart when she saw that Xie Qiong had already prepared it for her.
