On the way, the old man suddenly remembered that Wu Min had an older brother who was well-known in the area for being a gambling addict. It might have been possible that he had squandered away all the family a.s.sets.

It seemed that the Xia family really did not have much left.

The old man left reluctantly.

Qiao Mei originally wanted to stay with Xia Zhe’s grandfather, but then she felt that it was not that convenient for them to live in the same house. The house was also quite far from the hospital, so they made a last minute decision to go to the house that belonged to Xia Zhe’s parents.

As soon as he reached the door, Xia Zhe became nervous. Previously, they had only gone to his grandfather’s house. This was the first time that he formally brought Qiao Mei back to his parents’ house.

This house was usually not occupied. Xia Mao spent most of his time in the army and rarely went home. Xu Lan usually stayed in the house that was near the military art troupe and only returned to this house when Xia Mao came back. She was allocated the house by her workplace unit when she was young. It was very small, but it was good enough for a short stay.

Xia Zhe was raised in his grandmother’s courtyard house when he was young. When he grew up and went to school, he lived with Xia Fang and rarely came to this house. In his eyes, this was not considered his home. He would consider his grandmother’s courtyard house to be his home.

“We’ve been too busy these past few days and it didn’t occur to me to bring you here to take a look.” Xia Zhe explained as he looked at Qiao Mei.

Qiao Mei knew that Xia Zhe was not so familiar with this place because he had gone to the wrong block when he entered the courtyard just now. In the end, it was Zhou Hua who showed them the way.

Before Qiao Mei could speak, Zhou Hua said, “You have been busy? What are you guys so busy with?”

It seemed that Zhou Hua still refused to give up on the issue of there being something underground.

“Nothing much. Is Third Aunt-in-law staying here too?” Xia Zhe asked.

Zhou Hua said, “Of course!”

Xia Zhe had always been in the army and did not know much about the matters at home. Usually, when Xia Yao and Xia Guang came home, they would bring their families to stay with Xia Jun. However, when only the womenfolk came back, they would stay at Xia Mao’s house.

It was convenient to go anywhere from here and the complex was lax about visitors, so Liu Fen and Zhou Hua would come here to stay.

Xu Lan and Liu Fen were chatting in the house and were shocked to see the people coming in with all their bags. It was only later that Xu Lan realized that she should have asked Xia Zhe if he wanted to come back with them.

She did not do it on purpose as it did not strike her that this was also Xia Zhe’s house. Xia Zhe also did not think of it either.

Liu Fen quickly took Xia Zhe’s things and brought them upstairs to his bedroom. Liu Fen often came to this house, so she knew the layout of the house like the back of her hand.

Xia Zhe’s bedroom was only about 20 square meters. It was very simply furnished. There was only a bookcase, a desk and a single bed.

Qiao Mei looked at the narrow single bed and frowned. How could both of them sleep in such a small bed at night? Fortunately, she had lost weight and did not look like she used to. Otherwise, this bed would definitely collapse!

Xia Zhe, who was behind Qiao Mei, was very satisfied with the size of this single bed. This way, he could stick even closer to Qiao Mei!

Qiao Mei put down her luggage and started to unpack. Not long after, she took out the necessities from her luggage and put them aside. She changed the bedsheets and blankets, and then prepared to go downstairs to cook.

Liu Fen witnessed all these quietly with a look of approval in her eyes. This was so much better than what Tan Jing could do when she first came. Back then, Tan Jing could not even change the bedsheets properly and was unteachable.

Liu Fen was very satisfied with how diligent Qiao Mei was, but she did not understand what Xia Zhe was doing, following behind Qiao Mei all the time. How could a man enter the kitchen!

“Xiao Zhe, such a big thing has happened at home. Aren’t you going to your grandfather’s place to take a look? Your wife will be fine here with us. Go and do what you have to do!” Liu Fen shouted at Xia Zhe.

Xia Zhe reached out and took the kitchen knife from Qiao Mei’s hand. He clumsily cut the potatoes and said, “My father has already told my grandfather that the most important thing for me to do now is to stay by Qiao Mei’s side.”

Qiao Mei was pregnant and yet He Ning’s ultimate goal was to make Xia Zhe a member of the He family. He Ning would not harm anyone from the Xia family, so he would only target Qiao Mei.
