After lunch, everyone helped to clean up before leaving Qiao Qingqing's house.
Qiao Qingqing went into the room and hugged the child to sleep, while Shi Meijun continued to clean up in the kitchen.
The three generations of the Lu family gathered around the design drawings drawn by Lu Heng, studying how to make a crib.
The sun was scorching in the afternoon, but the three of them were in high spirits and didn't feel the sun at all.
Just then, someone knocked on the door outside the yard.
The vigilant old man immediately looked at his son, and they both tacitly walked into a room to hide.
Lu Heng walked over and opened the door, only to see Qiao He holding a straw hat and a bundle in his hands.
As for Lu Heng, Qiao He had only seen him from a distance a few times.
The two were not familiar with each other.
Qiao He nodded in greeting and spoke first: "Excuse me, my mother asked me to bring something to Qingqing."
He handed the bundle over and Lu Heng did not refuse.
Qiao He hesitated for a long time, but still asked, "Is Qingqing... okay?"
"She's fine." Lu Heng looked at him with deep eyes, "Do you want to come in and see her?"
A hint of joy flashed across Qiao He's face, and he lifted his foot.
But the next moment, Qiao He put his foot down again awkwardly, not knowing what he was thinking of.
He shook his head sadly.
"No, every time Qingqing sees us...it's always bad news, and I...can't face her."
Ever since the fight with his brother in the hospital, he and Qiao Shan became like enemies after returning home. Even if he was willing to shake hands and make peace, Qiao Shan refused.
The Ning Suxiang incident made Qiao Shan and his father the laughing stock of the villagers, so his father and Qiao Shan hated him to the core, believing that it was he who caused the matter to become irreversible.
He still remembered his father scolding him that day: "You studied for so many years! Haven't you heard the saying that family disgrace should not be made public? Qiao Shan is your elder brother! What good will it do for you to make him lose face in front of you? Don't you know that brothers are still connected even if their bones are broken? If you harm your own elder brother, it's the same as harming yourself!"
In my father's view, even if my father really suffered, he is not dead, right?
The Ning family is so rich that they would not be so unwilling to pay for even this little medical expense. If Qiao He had not made a big deal out of it, maybe the two families could have sat down and negotiated properly, and they could have gotten the medical expenses and kept Ning Suxiang as their daughter-in-law.
——Yes, my father said, even if Ning Suxiang is pregnant with a bastard, even if the Qiao family has suffered a loss, even if Qiao Shan picked up a slut...
But, suffering a loss is a blessing...
What's more, women are just like that!
The first child is gone anyway, and Ning Suxiang can give birth again in the future, so there is no need to change his wife, as long as the next child is the eldest.
As long as the two families keep their word and don't let outsiders know that Qiao Shan picked up a broken shoe, it won't affect their lives.
"Ning Suxiang is a slut herself. From now on, she will be the one who dares not go against the eldest brother's will. The Ning family has such a rich family background. If the eldest brother finds such a wife, shouldn't he take better care of you brothers? Second brother, you insist on being so foolish!"
At that time, Qiao He vaguely realized that it was no wonder that he had been so hostile to his biological sister before...
