Chapter 157: Mrs. Zhou Runs Away
Lin Xia thought about it and then dragged Lu Yuxiu to go shopping in the mall. They bought all the glass jars except for the most important thing: the plastic hose.
The county shopping mall didn’t have this thing, so Lin Xia thought she could only ask Comrade Song to go to Guangcheng to see if it was available.
After putting all the things in the car, the family of three went to eat. After dinner, there was still some time, so Lin Xia thought of her maternity photos. While her belly was not that big and she was not that fat yet, she could take beautiful photos as a souvenir.
As soon as these words were spoken, not only Lu Yuxiu was moved, but even the little guy jumped for joy.
She has never taken a photo with her parents! The little girl was very excited.
When we arrived at the photo studio, there were no other customers except the owner. When we saw the family of three coming to take photos, they were very enthusiastic.
I thought I would just take two pictures, but I didn't expect to take several pictures, including ones of Lin Xia and Lu Yuxiu, one of the family of three, and one of the little one alone!
The little girl did whatever poses Lin Xia asked her to do. She was so cute that I couldn't help but take a few more photos of her. In the end, these photos cost more than ten yuan.
The boss was stunned, Lin Xia was satisfied, the little guy didn't understand the concept of a dozen dollars and just felt extremely happy. Lu Yuxiu had no objection at all as long as his wife and children were happy.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t get the photos right away and had to wait for a while before getting them.
On the way back, Lu Yuxiu remembered that although Lin Xia was not seriously ill, the cause of the incident was definitely related to Old Lady Zhou, and this matter could not be easily covered up.
When asked about Lin Xia's thoughts, Lin Xia happened to think the same way. The two agreed to announce the fact that they were pregnant with twins, but they couldn't just say there was no truth to it.
It was announced to the public that Lin Xia needed to stay in bed to rest, which also avoided some irrelevant people from disturbing her, and Lin Xia also thought this was a good thing.
"How about we hire a nanny to take care of her?" He felt bad when he thought of Lin Xia cooking with a big belly and sweat all over her body. He couldn't come back to help at noon.
"Can I invite you? Won't people accuse me of capitalism?" Lin Xia was a little worried because someone had reported it before and came to investigate.
"It's okay. You need to rest now, so this is a good opportunity." It would have been bad if I had invited him before, but there is a chance now, and no one will say anything.
Lin Xia felt relieved when he said that, and expressed her thoughts, "There's not much to do at home, and I can still move now, so why not hire someone to help with some work?"
She can still move now, but when her belly gets bigger and Lu Yuxiu goes out on a mission, she will have to ask someone to help. When the next two children are born, Mother Lin will also have to take care of the children of her second sister-in-law and eldest sister Lin Xue, so she will definitely not have time to take care of her.
At that time, she would have to ask someone for help. Lin Xia was still worried that asking someone would attract attention, but she could choose the person first and work for a while, so that she wouldn't be panic when choosing someone later.
Lu Yuxiu pondered for a while and agreed with Lin Xia's consideration: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Mom, what is a nanny?" the little guy was curious.
"A nanny is someone hired to take care of mom." Lin Xia explained simply.
"Why do we need to hire someone to take care of my mom? I can take care of my mom. I can pour water for her!" An An didn't understand.
Lin Xia felt warm in her heart, touched her head and praised: "You are great for An An baby, but you are still too young, and you need adults to help you with many things."
"Okay, then I can take care of my mom when I grow up." The little guy was not discouraged and wanted to grow up quickly.
Lin Xia agreed with a warm heart. Her daughter is indeed her mother's caring little cotton-padded jacket!
Listening to the conversation between his wife and children behind him, Lu Yuxiu curled the corners of his lips slightly and drove more carefully.
When he got home, he met a lot of people on the road. Seeing some of them talking about something, Lin Xia guessed that something must have happened.
The car stopped at the gate of the yard. When Lin Xia was about to get out of the car, Lu Yuxiu stopped her. She watched him get out of the car and open the door first, then come back to pick up the little guy, and then bend over to hug Lin Xia.
After carrying him out of the car, Lin Xia saw a few military wives in the distance, who seemed to be paying attention to what was happening here.
Lu Yuxiu carried Lin Xia steadily into the house. He wanted to carry her upstairs, but was stopped by Lin Xia. She said that someone would definitely come to see her soon, and she didn't want too many people to go to the room upstairs, so it would be better for them to stay downstairs.
An An was holding Lin Xia's canvas bag in her hand, and Lu Yuxiu went to the car to move things into the house.
After moving the things, they were in a hurry to return the car, so Lin Xia asked the man to take a rest and drink some water before going.
Not long after Lu Yuxiu left, Yang Hongmei came. She was relieved to know that Lin Xia was fine and brought Lin Xia a piece of news.
"Really ran away?" Lin Xia was surprised. She hadn't settled the score with Old Lady Zhou yet.
"Really? Everyone is very surprised. She used to come there to torture Su Qiuhua. I didn't expect her to leave so soon this time."
Yang Hongmei knew what happened yesterday. She thought the old lady must have been frightened by Lin Xia going to the hospital for a check-up, and she left in a hurry because she was afraid something might happen.
Early this morning, when Lu Yuxiu was driving back, he was seen by many people. This military vehicle is very rare, and it is strange to see it in the family area. Some people would talk about it when they saw it.
It happened to be heard by Old Mrs. Zhou. She became suspicious and didn't even dare to eat that morning. She squatted on the upper floor of the family building and looked at the road.
What happened at Lin Xia's house yesterday has not spread yet, but someone saw Dr. Zhou go to Lin Xia's house with a large medicine box on his back. Everyone speculated at the time whether Lin Xia was feeling unwell.
Not long after Lu Yuxiu drove back, he took Lin Xia to the county town. It was obvious that they were going to the hospital. Something must have gone wrong, and the discussions were heard by Old Lady Zhou.
She recalled the time when she reached out her hand yesterday, and for a moment she doubted herself. She didn't know whether she had touched Lin Xia. She was worried at home when she heard a knock on the door.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw it was Director Pei, who told her not to move around in the next few days, because he would come to her with something. She was scared to death, but she thought he would not blame her for what happened.
After Director Pei left, Old Lady Zhou packed up her things and prepared to go home to hide while Su Qiuhua went out to buy groceries.
Who knew that many people saw her leaving and felt very strange. In the past, she would come when her son was not at home, torture Su Qiuhua, and would not leave until her son came home. Now she was leaving after only two days, which was not like the style of Old Lady Zhou.
This kind of thing was just discussed by everyone, and by the time Yang Hongmei found out, Old Lady Zhou had disappeared.
Another key person in this matter, Zhang Hongyan, also stayed at home all day.
Lin Xia knew very well why Old Lady Zhou left. It was simply because she was afraid of taking responsibility. If she had not suddenly felt pain yesterday, and that hand had not been pushed firmly onto her, Lin Xia did not dare to imagine what the consequences would have been.
So even if Old Mrs. Zhou ran away, it’s okay, doesn’t she still have her son?
