With Yue Qingshu, the family of five had no trouble on the way back. Yue Qingshu was a careful person, unlike Ling He who was careless. The Xia family didn't have to worry about anything on the way.
When I returned home, more than half a month had passed.
"I guess the master would let you come. He would definitely not feel at ease if someone else came."
Yue Qingshu smiled and said, "I volunteered myself. Last time you said that the food at Xia's was much more delicious, which made me hungry. How could I not come and try it?"
On the other side, the adults were chatting with each other. Xia Zhiliao looked at Cheng Han, whose belly was as big as a basket, and frowned slightly.
Xia Jinyu asked hurriedly, "Zhi Liao, what's wrong?"
"Uncle San, when we left, Aunt San's belly wasn't this big."
"This child was only a few months old then, and now she's almost due, how can she not give birth? You're still young and don't understand these things." Old Lady Xia said, "You'll understand when your mother gives birth to a brother or sister for you."
Everyone laughed, but Xia Zhiliao shook her head, "Grandma, I know what you said, but what I meant is that Third Aunt's belly grew too fast in a short period of time, this..."
【This is not a good thing. 】
Xia Zhiliao sighed, and everyone stopped laughing because they heard her thoughts and realized the seriousness of the situation.
"Zhiliao, I...is the baby not okay?" Cheng Han was concerned about the baby in her belly first.
"Zhiliao, tell me quickly, what happened to your Third Aunt?" Xia Jinjun's heart also fell to the bottom of the valley, "No... It's not what I thought, right?"
Xia Zhiliao had checked Cheng Han's pelvic condition before. She was the kind of person with a small frame and a narrow pelvis. It would have been easier for her to give birth to a smaller child, but now the child has grown too fast in recent times. Judging from the situation, the baby in her belly must weigh about 8 or 9 kilograms. It was her first child, so she knew that even if she gave birth to the child, she would suffer.
What's more, there are still a few days before the due date, and the baby still needs to grow.
"It's all my fault. Zhiliao specifically told me this before she left, but I... I was just worried that they would be hungry. When she said she was hungry, I made them something to eat."
"How can I blame you? It's my fault for being greedy. Now I've become fatter than myself." Cheng Han said.
Xia Zhiliao calmed down and said, "Okay, okay, don't worry. Things haven't come to that point yet."
"That's right. Don't panic. Don't be confused. Zhiliao is back. If you want to blame someone, blame me. I've been back for so many days and I've forgotten what Zhiliao said."
Old Mrs. Xia blamed herself so much that she wanted to slap herself. She was really afraid that something serious might happen to her daughter-in-law.
"Mom, how can I blame you for this?"
The whole family felt very guilty. Xia Zhiliao didn't know why her family members were so panicked, as if they knew that the third aunt in the novel died of childbirth complications.
"I just said that my little brother has grown too big and that Third Aunt will suffer when she gives birth to him. I didn't say what will happen to Third Aunt. Look how scared you are."
Cheng Han was a little embarrassed. Everyone was like this because of her.
"I understand. Then your third aunt won't die?" Xia Jinyu said.
Old Lady Xia patted him on the back of his head. "What nonsense are you talking about? Bah, bah, bah, with Zhiliao here, nothing will go wrong, right, Zhiliao?"
Xia Zhiliao nodded, "Yes, there are still risks, but I will try my best to reduce the risks."
"Look, this little girl is so capable that all the adults in the family listen to her. Our master has good vision." Yue Qingshu said.
On the way back, he got to know the girl a little better. She was indeed a smart girl. Even when faced with something like murder, she was able to remain calm.
"If I wasn't afraid that the master wouldn't accept me, I would have wanted to take her in as my apprentice."
Ling He made a "tsk" sound, "She has learned some from me."
"Then the powerful ones haven't been learned yet? You already have three apprentices, but you can't give me one?"
"Don't you want to accept disciples?"
"How can they be the same? I haven't met anyone who appreciates me." Yue Qingshu said. He had his reasons. Anyway, he was more eloquent than Ling He.
After hearing what Xia Zhiliao said, the Xia family felt relieved a little.
"Jinjun, did everything go smoothly along the way?" Wei Rong asked.
Xia Jinjun was stunned for a moment, "No...no!"
"Why are you so hesitant? What happened?"
"No, no!" Xia Jinjun felt a little guilty, but didn't want to say it out loud and make everyone worry, "No, Uncle Wei, don't think too much."
"As for your plan to deal with my mother...when are you going to do it?"
Xia Jinjun was afraid that he would continue to ask questions and that he would be exposed by saying something wrong, so he quickly changed the subject.
"What can we do? We are already too old." said Old Mrs. Xia.
【Grandma is shy! 】
After hearing this, Mrs. Xia's face turned even redder.
"Grandma, Grandpa Wei has been waiting for you for so long and has never married. Isn't it worth it for you to give him a status?" Xia Zhiliao blinked playfully.
Wei Rong was very sensible and said with a bitter face: "Yes, just think of it as having pity on me."
"Mom, there will be good days next month, please choose one." Xia Jinxiu also advised.
Old Mrs. Xia sighed. She had been married and was already old, and she didn't want to be laughed at.
"Well, the family can just get together and have a meal."
"That won't do!" Xia Zhiliao shook her head, "Grandma, you can't do this. You have to give Grandpa Wei a legitimate status, otherwise you will be a bad person who plays with other people's feelings."
"Cicada!" Xia Chen said in a low voice.
"Grandma's not angry."
Mrs. Xia had been deliberately keeping a straight face, but after the little girl said that, she immediately broke down and laughed, "Okay, little girl, I really can't do anything about you. Let's talk about it after your third aunt gives birth."
"Your Third Aunt and the child are the most important things right now," said Old Lady Xia.
The fate of the family has finally changed, and she doesn't want all her efforts to be wasted when it comes to the third brother.
"Grandpa Wei, you heard it. Grandma agreed."
Wei Rong smiled and nodded, "I heard you. Thank you very much, Zhiliao. You really helped Grandpa Wei a lot."
"You're welcome. I believe Grandpa Wei won't treat me, the matchmaker, unfairly."
“Little girl, you still know Hongniang, don’t worry, you will be indispensable.”
The whole family laughed, and Old Mrs. Xia curled her lips helplessly.
While the family was preparing the meal, Xia Zhiliao touched the baby in Cheng Han's belly again. It was indeed quite big and had already entered the pelvis.
"Is the baby coming soon?" Cheng Han asked.
Xia Zhiliao nodded, "Aunt San, we came back just in time. In your condition, the attack will start tomorrow morning at the latest, or maybe tonight. You have to eat more later, otherwise you won't have the strength."
"This...it's going to be born soon?" Xia Jinyu said excitedly and nervously.
