Chapter 334: Is Boasting an Innate Trait of the Zhou Family?
Chapter 334: Is Boasting an Innate Trait of the Zhou Family?
During dinner, Jiang Fu asked the couple if they were there for a prenatal checkup.
Having previously heard about Jiang Xia's injury and signs of threatened miscarriage, Jiang Fu was very concerned and had called Zhou Chenglei.
He had wanted to visit his daughter, but then worried that his presence might cause more trouble for the couple and the entire family.
After some thought, he decided it was best to let his daughter rest and recover, and they could meet again when they came to the city for a follow-up checkup.
Zhou Chenglei served a piece of spare rib to Jiang Xia, casually saying, "Yeah, Dr. Gao said everything's fine. She mentioned it might be triplets, so we need to be extra careful from now on."
Jiang Xia: "..."
Is boasting an innate trait of the Zhou family?
Jiang Fu: "..."
Jiang Mu: "..."
Triplets?
Jiang Fu burst into laughter, "Triplets? Haha... Triplets are great! Triplets are wonderful! Haha..."
Jiang Fu was overjoyed!
With the current birth control policies, having three grandchildren at once was indeed a reason to be happy.
Jiang Mu also shared in the excitement, "I'll have to prepare more diapers and clothes."
Jiang Fu nodded, "Yes, we'll need plenty. Xiaxia used to wet the bed a lot when she was little."
Jiang Xia: "..."
Jiang Mu: "That's right! No matter how many diapers we prepared for Xiaxia when she was young, it was never enough. Even at the age of five, she would wet the bed twice a night. In the dead of winter, she'd soak the mattress, and we couldn't get a good night's sleep."
Zhou Chenglei took a bite of rice, covering his upturned mouth with the bowl.
Jiang Xia: "..."
It was time to change the subject.
Jiang Xia steered the conversation, "Dad, Mom, does our family have a history of multiple births? The doctor said that having multiples is usually hereditary."
Jiang Mu paused for a moment.
Jiang Fu: "Your mother was a twin."
Jiang Fu didn't elaborate further and changed the topic, "How are you feeling now? What did Dr. Gao say?"
"Dr. Gao said I'm fine," Jiang Xia replied, sensing that Jiang Fu didn't want to discuss it further. She knew that Jiang Mu's family was no longer around.
Jiang Fu still had relatives, and Jiang Xia was aware of an uncle and aunt back in their hometown.
So, during the New Year, the family would return to their hometown to celebrate.
Jiang Mu: "Still, you can't be careless these next two months. You should take it easy and rest more. Why don't you stay at home for a while? We have an auntie who cooks at home, so it'll be more convenient."
Jiang Xia shook her head, "No need. Our house is being renovated, and I need to keep an eye on it to make sure it turns out the way I like."
Jiang Fu: "Then be careful at home, and don't keep going to the new house. The construction site is full of things everywhere; it's chaotic. Don't bump into anything."
Zhou Chenglei: "Dad, Mom, don't worry. I'll take good care of Xiaxia."
After dinner, Jiang Fu called Zhou Chenglei to the study for a chat.
Jiang Mu couldn't help but give Jiang Xia a few more reminders, "Now that you're carrying three children, you need to be more careful in everything you do. Don't be so adventurous, always wanting to go here and there. Just focus on giving birth to the children safely."
Jiang Xia yawned, "Mom, I understand. With this big belly, where can I go? I'm going to take a bath first."
After saying this, she stood up to look for clothes to wear after her bath.
Jiang Mu knew her daughter didn't like being nagged, and with her pregnancy and the upcoming birth of three children, she would be busy enough without having time for other thoughts.
Moreover, Jiang Mu had a rough idea of how much money Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei had made at the Canton Fair, and knowing that they had already paid half the deposit for the boat, she felt relieved.
Jiang Mu never expected these two children to earn so much, even more than what she made at the clothing factory.
Jiang Mu also returned to her room to write a list, asking the procurement team to buy some suitable fabrics for baby clothes.
With the need to prepare for three children at once, it would take a significant amount of time, so they had to start early.
After Jiang Xia finished her bath and returned to the living room, she found it empty and called Jiang Dong to let him know she was safe.
Jiang Dong had been waiting for the call.
The call was answered quickly, but the person on the other end informed her that Jiang Dong wasn't there.
Jiang Xia called Zhang Fuyan to check on her foot.
When the call connected, Zhang Fuyan's sweet voice rang out, "Hello, how are you?"
Jiang Xia smiled and said, "It's me, have you eaten?"
Hearing Jiang Xia's voice, Zhang Fuyan's tone brightened, "I just finished eating. Jiang Dong cooked for me. He's still here, do you want to talk to him?"
Then Zhang Fuyan called out to Jiang Dong, who was washing dishes, "Jiang Dong, Xia Xia is on the phone."
Jiang Dong hadn't finished washing the dishes yet. With the cold weather, the dishes were difficult to clean, and no matter how much he scrubbed, they still felt greasy. He said, "Hold on, my hands are oily. I'll wash them first."
Zhang Fuyan started chatting with Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia asked about her leg, and Zhang Fuyan inquired about Jiang Xia's health.
After expressing their mutual concerns, Zhang Fuyan informed Jiang Xia that Ye Xian had been disciplined by the school and was expelled. Her brother had taken full responsibility for it.
Yang Qiongying was still under suspension and investigation.
"Serves her right!" Zhang Fuyan added at the end.
Jiang Xia was both surprised and not surprised. After all, Ye Fu's intentions were malicious, and the harm they caused was significant.
"Is Ye Xian still in the Capital City?"
Zhang Fuyan replied, "I don't know, I haven't seen her."
At this moment, Jiang Dong came out, "Xia Xia, Jiang Dong is here. You can talk to him."
Zhang Fuyan handed the phone to him.
Jiang Dong took the call and happily said, "Sis, is your health better?"
"The doctor said I'm fine, you don't need to worry."
Jiang Dong finally felt relieved, "Sis, the dividends for the vacuum packaging machine and the plastic bag production line were distributed today. I opened two passbooks and will give you half of it."
He never imagined that he could earn so much money at such a young age; it was simply amazing.
So, he had bought some groceries to celebrate with his sister Zhang Fuyan.
He was celebrating that he had more money than his father!
And there would be more dividends in the future.
Although the Canton Fair was over, there were still sales, and they were quite good. Many people were coming to purchase their products.
The future income looked promising!
Jiang Xia smiled and said, "No need, you keep the money you earned. Why give it to me?"
Jiang Dong insisted, "It's because of your idea and the pictures you provided that I was able to develop it. Of course, I should give you half!"
"It was your idea, I just had a thought, but I couldn't do it. Fine, keep the money, I don't want it. Has the omni-wheel suitcase been made?"
"Almost done," Jiang Dong smiled, not caring whether his sister wanted it or not. If she didn't, he would keep it for his nephew.
Jiang Xia continued, "I have another new idea. Help me make a baby stroller. It should be simple. I'll draw the design tonight and send it to you tomorrow. Remember to check for it in a few days."
Jiang Dong immediately agreed.
He had to work on the items for his nephew as soon as possible.
At this moment, Zhou Chenglei walked out of the study and saw Jiang Xia on the phone. Hearing something about a baby stroller, he asked, "Is it Jiang Dong?"
Jiang Xia nodded.
Zhou Chenglei approached Jiang Xia and said, "Give me the phone, I want to say a few words to him."
Jiang Xia said to Jiang Dong, "I'll send you instructions on how to make it later. Your brother-in-law has something to tell you."
Then she handed the phone to Zhou Chenglei, "I'm going to bed, I'm tired."
Zhou Chenglei nodded and took the phone.
Jiang Xia stood up, and Zhou Chenglei reached out to support her. He didn't let go until she was steady.
After Jiang Xia walked away, he sat in the spot she had just vacated. Without taking his eyes off her, he said into the phone, "Little Dong, the baby stroller your sister mentioned, make it bigger. It should be able to fit three babies at once."
