Liu Chen didn't expect the wine sent by Xie Yan to be so effective. As soon as he got to work, he used all the foreign exchange drafts he had saved up to buy a box of bird's nest, two jars of peanut butter, and three boxes of Hershey's chocolate.
After buying it, I sent it to Xie Yan right when I had lunch.
I also sent back the money that Xie Yan had sent.
Her grandfather was in poor health, and as he got older over the years, his health deteriorated. Every night he coughed so hard that the neighbors could hear it.
Not to mention other discomforts.
Her sister-in-law couldn't sleep well because her grandfather was making so much noise, so she and her brother moved out to sleep.
I never expected that Xie Yan's seemingly ordinary medicinal wine would be so effective.
Last night was the quietest night their family had had in many years.
When her mother got up in the morning, the aunt from the next courtyard asked her indirectly if something had happened to her grandfather.
Her mother explained that her grandfather was perfectly fine, but the aunt still didn't believe her. After all, over the years, the neighbors had gotten used to the old man's constant coughing at night.
Suddenly it became quiet, and not a single cough was heard all night—that could be a sign of trouble.
She only believed it when she saw the elderly man taking a walk with a cane at noon.
Therefore, she was extremely grateful to Xie Yan.
So this time, she not only didn't ask for money to send the things, but she also mobilized her family to pack a big bag of good things and send them to Xie Yan.
I was hoping to buy something nice at Xie Yan's place, maybe I could get some more medicinal wine.
When Xie Yan received the first package, he saw that Liu Chen hadn't accepted the money, so he thought of sending her another bottle of medicinal wine. It wasn't that he was stingy and didn't want to send more, but the wine was really expensive.
The jar contained not only a ginseng root that was 300 years old, but also many other precious medicinal herbs. Only two jars of this wine were used for the thank-you banquet.
After brewing the first batch, he sent two bottles each to Zheng Hedong and Yu Shan. Later, Yu Yuehua secretly tasted it and learned that it was brewed by Xie Yan. She went directly to Xie Yan's house and begged and pleaded for two bottles. Gu Bin also got two bottles from Xie Yan on behalf of his grandfather.
In this way, Xie Yan only kept one bottle for himself, and the entire jar of wine was gone. Xie Yan had no choice but to brew another jar, but the new one wasn't ready yet, so for now he only had this one jar of brewed wine left.
To be honest, the things Liu Chen sent were not worth the two bottles of wine at all, but Xie Yan also had his own selfish motives, mainly wanting to get in touch with Liu Chen.
Unexpectedly, I received another one later. Inside, there were not only various tonics, but also pure cotton fabric, tiger-head shoes and hats for children, three sets of pure cotton clothes for them to wear underneath, and two sets of maternity clothes for Yu Yuehui. They were all newly made and made of pure cotton.
Seeing this, Xie Yan's goodwill towards the Liu family increased dramatically.
With a wave of his hand, he sent two more bottles to the Liu family.
Seeing so many tonics, Yu Yue looked at Xie Yan with some suspicion as she went to bed that night, "Is this baby a boy?"
Xie Yan: "?"
"Then why didn't you go to such lengths to provide all sorts of supplements when I was pregnant with Chaochao?"
Xie Yan pinched his wife's cheek. "Nonsense, I did pay a lot of attention to your nutrition before, okay?" After saying that, he looked outside with a bit of lingering fear.
"You can't say things like that carelessly. If Chaochao finds out, I won't be able to explain myself even if I have a hundred mouths."
Yu Yuehui chuckled to herself, "Don't worry, Chaochao is already asleep."
Xie Yan sighed, "Wife, you haven't noticed any difference between this pregnancy and the last one!"
Yu Yue scratched her head, thought about it carefully, and realized there was no difference. She asked directly, "What's the difference?"
Xie Yan sighed helplessly, "Didn't you notice that you not only ate a lot this time, but you also got hungry very quickly?"
After thinking about it carefully, Yu Yuehui realized that it did make sense!
When I was pregnant with Chaochao before, although I ate a lot, I didn't get hungry as quickly as I did this time.
This feeling is especially pronounced when the months are up.
Xie Yan explained after realizing his wife had realized it: "This time you're pregnant with twins."
Because Yu Yuehui was pregnant with twins, Xie Yan was constantly on edge, worried that Yu Yuehui wouldn't get enough nutrition.
He knew that if the mother's nutrition supply was insufficient, the two little ones would desperately absorb nutrients from Yuehui's body, which would inevitably seriously damage her health.
Xie Yan was worried about this, so she searched everywhere for nutritional supplements to ensure that the two gluttons got enough nutrition.
Why!
After saying that, Xie Yan sighed inwardly. His previous plan was to have two children, regardless of gender. He had already decided that he would get sterilized after having a second child to eliminate any possibility of having a third child.
But I never expected the third brother to arrive so suddenly.
The thought of having to raise three children in the future gives him a headache. Three?
Everything needs to be prepared in triplicate, just the property alone requires three copies, especially since it's in Beijing. Xie Yan's thoughts are giving her a headache.
Why!
Raising children is expensive!
Yu Yuehui was stunned when she found out she was carrying twins!
It took her a while to come to her senses, and she looked at Xie Yan and asked, "Has your family ever had twins?"
Xie Yan shook his head. He felt it must be his wife's genes, as far as he knew, his family didn't have any.
Sure enough, the next day, when Qian Hong learned that her daughter was pregnant with twins, she immediately clapped her hands and exclaimed, "Wow, your grandmother's generation really had twins!"
Ever since they learned that Yu Yuehui was pregnant with twins, some people from the neighborhood have come over to share in the good news.
Fortunately, Yuehui was a busy person who was often away from home. After some people came and came up empty-handed a few times, fewer and fewer people came.
