1569 Pigs Can Fly
âYou really think of everything. Then Iâll go to the factory to see if thereâs anything I can help with. Recently, Qianâe has been very busy on her own. She even called and asked me to go over and help her!â Xia He said.
âItâs really been tough on her during this period of time. Is there any news about the He family?â Qiao Mei asked.
Speaking about the He family, there was really nothing happening there. The weather had been erratic and given He Ningâs weak constitution, his illness kept recurring and he did not have the energy to deal with Qiao Mei or anyone.
The reporters waited outside He Ningâs house every day. Sometimes, they would cause a scene to force the He family members to come out, adding to He Ningâs problems.
In fact, some of these reporters were sent there by Xia Wen to monitor the He familyâs every move.
âI havenât heard anything. They probably canât do anything now. They canât even protect themselves, so how can they have the energy to mess with us? Eldest Brother and I have already discussed this. If anything happens on the He familyâs end, heâll go ahead and settle it. You donât have to worry,â Xia He said.
âThatâs good to hear.â Qiao Mei suddenly felt sleepy and fell asleep on the bed. Xia He quietly left the room.
Ever since Qiao Mei got pregnant, the food at home was more bland and the meal timings were no longer fixed. Everything was planned around Qiao Meiâs condition.
Qiao Yu sat in the corner and was about to faint. She was so hungry that she felt dizzy. If someone pushed her at this moment, she would fall unconscious and not be able to wake up.
âSister Xu, please prepare some food for her. It doesnât have to be too nice. We just need to make sure that she doesnât die,â Xia He said sternly.
Xu Kang knew what to do and only gave Qiao Yu some vegetables and steamed buns. The steamed buns were not even those made of fine flour. Xu Kang also reminded Qiao Yu to just stay put in the corner.
After a few days, Qiao Yu had gathered enough information about Qiao Meiâs daily life and everyoneâs schedule, especially those of the two children. She noted down everything clearly.
Qiao Mei was really a very lucky person. Her two children were fair and chubby and very good-looking. The two children did not cry or fight for no reason. They were so quiet that they looked like two beautiful porcelain dolls.
However, Qiao Yu was also a little annoyed. There were too many people in this courtyard. Apart from the guard team who was always around, Feng Hua would not leave her side at all. Even when Feng Hua went to the toilet, she would ask Li Gui or Xu Kang to keep watch for a while. There was no chance for Qiao Yu to do anything.
After being here for so many days, Qiao Yu still did not get the chance to see the children up close. She had only seen them twice from afar.
Qiao Mei had been using the vines to monitor Qiao Yu. If there was anything out of place, she would immediately inform Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang. She did not expect Qiao Yu to be so obedient and not wander around the house at all. She even slept on the swing in the courtyard at night and did not even enter the house.
The only time she moved around was when she swept the courtyard with a broom and occasionally stood up to do some stretches.
âQiao Mei, can it be that she has found her conscience?â Xia He leaned against the window and asked as she looked at Qiao Yu outside.
âWhich one do you believe, that pigs can fly or that she has a kind heart?â Qiao Mei asked.
Xia He pondered for a moment and said, âProbably that pigs can flyâŠâ
âThere are too many people in the house now and everyoneâs focus is on the children. She doesnât have the chance to do anything. We have to create the chance for her,â Qiao Mei said earnestly.
âWhat? Then what about the children! What if it puts the children in danger?â Xia He looked at Qiao Mei in shock.
Qiao Mei did not know if Qiao Yu was targeting her or the children. It was fine if Qiao Yu was targeting her. She was more worried that Qiao Yu was targeting the children.
Qiao Mei was also unwilling to put the children in danger, but as the saying went, if one could not bear to part with a child, one would not be able to catch a wolf. If they could not catch the real mastermind behind the scenes, they would always be living in a state of uncertainty and the children would not have a day of peace either. It was impossible for them to be by the childrenâs side all the time.
âI know my limits. There wonât be any problems,â Qiao Mei said with her head lowered.
Back then, when Qiao Mei made the cradles for the children, she had used good quality wood, hollowed it out and hidden vines inside. If someone attacked the children, she could quickly bound the cradles shut.
