1257 It Cost Ten Thousand Yuan!
âWhen he comes out this time, discipline him well. Heâs already a father. He canât commit any more crimes in the future.â
The old man spoke weakly. It was obvious that his body and mind could not take it anymore. Moreover, they did not know if Wang Yunfa could come out. If he went to jail, it would take half his life.
âDad, donât worry. When he comes out, Iâll discipline him well.â Li Xia agreed readily on the surface, but she couldnât help but mutter in her heart. Whose fault was it that Wang Yunfa became like this today?
Itâs all because you two elders have spoiled him since he was young. If Wang Yunfa went to university like Wang Yunzhong, he might be even more promising than Wang Yunzhong.
However, Li Xia only muttered in her heart. If Wang Yunfa was more promising than Wang Yunzhong, it would not be her turn to marry Wang Yunfa. She understood this.
The old lady cooked a bowl of birdâs nest and brought it out. âXia, try it. If itâs tasteless, Mom will add some sugar for you.â
Seeing the birdâs nest, Li Xia quickly put away her thoughts. She had only seen this thing on television since she was young, so she had never eaten it before.
Li Xia reached out to take it. She was very curious. âMom, can we just eat this?â
The old lady nodded with a smile. âIsnât that so? I ate with your sister-in-law once. No, no. Iâm not used to eating this thing. I canât describe the texture. Itâs clear and tasteless.â
As the old lady spoke, Li Xia had already taken a bite. Just as the old lady had said, it felt like sugar water when it entered her mouth. If she didnât put sugar in, there wouldnât be any taste!
Rich people ate whatever was bland.
However, although there was no taste, it was still a rare thing. Li Xia still ate happily.
âEat them all. This thing is good for beauty. I heard itâs even anti-cancer and is especially good for women. Your brother specially bought it for your sister-in-law. Who knew she wouldnât like it?â the old lady muttered.
âMom, if Sister-in-law doesnât want to eat, give it to me. Iâm eating quite well,â Li Xia said.
The old lady didnât think too much about it and nodded. âAlright, there are still a few boxes left. I was worried that no one would eat them and they would expire! If you like them, take them back. These things are nourishing. Coincidentally, youâre pregnant, so you can nourish the child in your stomach.â
As she spoke, the old lady stood up and returned to the kitchen. Not long after, she took out the remaining birdâs nest.
One could tell at a glance that the birdâs nest was of high quality. Not to mention that the packaging was exquisite, but there were only four small boxes in a big packaging box. Just looking at the packaging, one could tell that it was expensive.
âTake it back and eat them yourself. This thing is very expensive. You canât give it away casually,â the old lady didnât forget to remind her.
With her stingy personality, she will give such an expensive birdâs nest to Li Xia only because it was for the child in her stomach.
Li Xia smiled and nodded. âI understand, Mom. Iâll eat it myself.â
After sitting for a while, Li Xia stood up and left with the birdâs nest.
After the old couple sent her to a taxi, the old man couldnât help but say to the old lady, âYouâre too much. Itâs ok when Xia comes that you just let her eat a bowl. You even gave the rest away to her.â
âWhatâs wrong with that? Qianqian doesnât eat it, so I might as well give it to Xia. Otherwise, itâll be a waste if it expires!â The old lady didnât think she had done anything wrong. Anyway, she had left it at home for a while. If Qianqian liked to eat it, she wouldnât give it to Li Xia, right?
The old man disagreed. âYunzhong bought it for Qianqian. What if she wants to eat it again in a few days? Where can you get it? Besides, even if you want to give it to Xia, ask Qianqian for her opinion, right?â
âEh? Why? As a mother, I canât even handle a few boxes of birdâs nest?â The old lady didnât like to hear the old manâs words. She immediately said unhappily, âItâs true that sheâs important because sheâs pregnant, but we donât have to hold her up like this, right? Chunfen was very sensible when she was pregnant.â
âNow you know how good Chunfen is. When Yunzhong wanted a divorce, you didnât stop him!â At the mention of this, the old man couldnât help but feel angry. He was the most satisfied with this daughter-in-law, but in the end, they still got a divorce!
âIâŠâ The old lady opened her mouth and sighed in the end. She muttered, âI was just saying it casually. Anyway, itâs just a few boxes of birdâs nest. Iâll let Qianqian know later. Youâre the only one making a fuss!â
The old man immediately snorted and ignored the old lady. He turned around and went to the stone bench to smoke.
The old lady knew that if she continued to speak, she would ask for a rebuff. She immediately turned around and entered the house. The big villa was quiet. The nanny had applied for two days of leave, so she had to be busy alone in the house.
She looked at the time. She would prepare dinner in two hours. The old lady went into the kitchen to heat a glass of milk. She looked at the staircase on the second floor and carefully went upstairs.
In the master bedroom, Xu Qianqian was lying on the bed watching television. There was a knock on the door. Before she could say anything, the old lady had already pulled the door open.
âQianqian!â The old lady poked her head in through the crack in the door. When she saw Xu Qianqian leaning on the bed, she couldnât help but smile. âYouâre awake?â
âMom,â Xu Qianqian called out. Although her emotions were not stable after she got pregnant, Xu Qianqian was still very polite to the two elders. She rarely lost her temper in front of the elders.
The old lady came in with the milk. âMom heated a glass of milk. Didnât the doctor say that you lack calcium? You have to drink more milk.â
âIn a few days, Yunzhong will send the goatâs milk he ordered for you every morning. Itâs squeezed on the same day and is more nutritious than cowâs milk. Deal with it with milk for the next two days first.â
It had to be said that the old lady did her best to take care of Xu Qianqian. Although she hoped that the child in her stomach would be healthy, Xu Qianqian would feel moved by this gesture occasionally.
Not only did she constantly make all kinds of supplements for her every day, but she also accompanied her to her prenatal examination. The old lady accompanied her for her walk every morning and night. She was much more attentive than Wang Yunzhong, the father.
âThank you, Mom.â Xu Qianqian reached out to take it and asked, âSister-in-law left?â
The old lady was stunned. âYou knew she was here?â
âI know. I heard the voice just now,â Xu Qianqian said. âBecause Iâm not familiar with her, I was too embarrassed to go down.â
âItâs fine,â the old lady quickly said. âShe thought you were sleeping, so she didnât disturb you.â
As soon as she finished speaking, the old lady couldnât help but pause for a moment before saying carefully, âQianqian, I saw you werenât eating the birdâs nest, so I gave it to Xia.â
âAh?â Xu Qianqian stopped drinking milk and looked up at the old lady in shock. âYou gave it all to her?â
The old lady opened her mouth and nodded in a daze. âYes! She took them all away. Mom saw you donât usually like to eat, so I thoughtâŠâ
âMom! Those boxes of birdâs nest cost ten thousand yuan!â Xu Qianqian felt her heartache!
