Li Cuihua answered the phone, "Shitou, you have to take good care of Liuxu. Life must be tough where you are. Otherwise, I'll send you some supplements. We can't let Liuxu suffer."

"Mom, don't worry, Liu Xu is in very good health. My sister-in-law has already examined her. Besides, they are both doctors, so they will definitely take good care of herself."

Li Cuihua was still worried and gave Shi Tou a long list of things to be careful about before hanging up the phone.

After thinking it over, Zhang Hongmei decided to ask Er Lengzi if his second son, Liu Xiangdong, would send something over. If he did, she would send a car over and bring them more things.

"Lu Jing, contact Er Lengzi, I need to speak with him."

Lu Jing nodded, picked up the phone, and Er Lengzi's bodyguard answered, instructing Er Lengzi to come back and make a call.

"Third Aunt, I just wanted to ask Brother Er Lengzi if Xiang Dong wanted to come over. I'll have someone arrange a car to deliver tonics to Liu Xu and the others. If the child is coming, I'll arrange for our people to pick him up."

Li Cuihua smiled and said, "The children in the family are all relying on you."

Zhang Hongmei laughed, "What's wrong with that? They're all my nephews, it's only natural for me to raise them. Besides, the education there is definitely not up to par. Bringing the children back will prevent them from falling behind. In addition, Su Chen and Er Lengzi are both busy, I'm afraid the children will suffer there."

When Zhenye and the other three returned at noon, they were delighted to see the handsome little boy. They played with Xiangting, while Liu Qiang laughed on the side.

Er Lengzi called. "Hongmei, did Shitou call you this morning?"

"Yes, I know Liu Xu is pregnant."

“Actually, even if you hadn’t called, I would have called you anyway. Su Chen is pregnant, and Xiang Dong still has to deliver it to you.”

"Hehe, congratulations! This is great news. The reason I called you was to ask about Xiang Dong. I'll arrange a car to deliver supplements to Liu Xu and Su Chen in the next couple of days, and have someone pick up Xiang Dong. Also, send a nanny over. They're both pregnant, and you two don't have much time, so I'll send one over. That way I'll feel at ease."

The guy on the other end of the phone felt a pang of sadness; it had to be his own sister.

"Okay, one nanny is fine, too many wouldn't be good. When are they coming?"

"Everything's arranged here. I'll have Lu Jing call you. Is there anything you'd like?"

"No, we have enough supplies here, so it's fine."

"Wait a minute, Liu Qiang is here, I'll ask him to answer the phone."

Er Lengzi gave his son a few instructions, telling him to go east as well. Liu Qiang was overjoyed, and his younger brother came over too.

After hanging up the phone, Liu Qiang looked at Zhang Hongmei with a smile and said, "Auntie, Xiang Dong is coming too! That's great! I miss my brother."

"Well, just wait and see, it will take them at least a month to arrive," Zhang Hongmei said to Liu Qiang with a smile.

Li Cuihua laughed as she stood to the side. "How many days will it take for Hongmei to make arrangements?"

"Three days will be enough. Auntie, you'd better hurry up and prepare things for Liu Xu."

"Yes, I'll go back after I finish eating. I need to prepare clothes and other necessities for the child. Er Ya and I are quick; we can definitely finish them in three days."

Upon receiving the instructions, Lu Jing immediately set about making arrangements. The vehicle was from the logistics company, which made the trip much safer. This time, Bai Xue was sent to pick up Liu Xiangdong. Since the child was still young, it would be more convenient to arrange for someone with medical skills to go.

Li Cuihua went home in the afternoon to prepare cotton clothes, diapers, and blankets for the baby.

When Er Ya and Liu Maocai returned and learned that Liu Xu was pregnant, they were overjoyed and couldn't stop laughing. The mother and daughter worked by lamplight that night, preparing to make six sets of cotton-padded clothes. Su Chen was also pregnant with her third child, and they took this opportunity to prepare as well.

That evening at the dinner table, Zhang Hongmei told Zhang Shouyi about going to the border to pick up Liu Xiangdong.

Zhenye and his three brothers exchanged glances, and Zhang Weiyu finally spoke up, "Mom and Dad, can we come with us to the border?"

Zhang Shouyi smiled, not answering his son's question, but instead looking at Zhang Hongmei with a smile.

Gu Chuanming and Zhang Xingguo were also looking at her.

Zhang Hongmei put down her chopsticks. "The four of you want to go? But it won't be for long. Even if we leave now, the round trip alone will take more than a month. How long do you plan to stay there?"

“Mom, it’s July now, and school starts in September. If we stay at the border for half a month, we can definitely come back before school starts.” This time, it was Zhang Zhenye who spoke.

Zhang Hongmei looked at the longing expressions on the four children's faces, as well as the expressions on their grandfather's and the others' faces, and finally nodded. "You should know that we've spent the entire journey in the car, and the weather has been extremely hot."

"Mom, we know. Don't worry, we'll be fine," Zhang Ruifeng quickly assured her.

"Mom, I really want to go," Gu Yaozu quickly said, trying to coax her.

"Okay, you guys go ahead. How about this, both cars go together, that way we can bring back more refined grains. Lu Jing, you can notify the logistics company later."

"Yes, I'll arrange it right away."

The four children were overjoyed to receive a positive answer; they had never been out on their own before, and this was a great opportunity.

That night, the couple lay in bed. "Wife," he said, "I thought you wouldn't agree."

"Sigh! The children are growing up, what can I do? I can't always hold them in my arms, after all, they are boys, and I can't be too restrained. I have to let go, besides, I believe they are capable of protecting themselves."

I just felt sorry for them suffering all that way. The weather gets hotter and hotter the further south you go.

"Hehe, it's okay, they're all fine. It's good that you're able to think positively."

"Yes, we have to let go eventually, so let's just agree to their terms."

Zhang Hongmei spoke with some sadness, as the children still have two months until they turn ten.

Zhang Shouyi kissed his wife's red lips, "You still have me, don't worry, I will never leave you for the rest of my life."

Zhang Hongmei hugged Zhang Shouyi back; she was already reluctant to part with the children even though they hadn't left yet.

While arrangements were being made intensively on one side, Li Cuihua had also finished packing the things she had prepared for the children.

Liu Maocai brought his things directly to work; he's now in charge of the logistics company's warehouse, which makes things more convenient.

Liu Maocai's colleagues were quite puzzled when they saw the large package he brought.

"Hehe, my youngest daughter-in-law is pregnant. Her sister was sending things over there, and her mother prepared clothes and stuff for the baby."

Everyone sincerely congratulated Liu Maocai.

Chen Xu already knew that this Uncle Liu was Liu Aidang's father. Upon hearing this news, she felt a pang of pain in her heart, but she immediately suppressed it. He was her benefactor, and they had no other connection.
