Because genetic screening had been arranged in advance, Wang Xiuzhen and Jiang Xuanxuan acted quickly.
In about three days, they made an appointment with the largest and most authoritative hospital in Jincheng for genetic screening.
On the day she went to the hospital for a blood test, Wang Xiuzhen warmly had her maid carry two thermos flasks filled with red bean, red date, and longan soup.
"Madam Xia, you've had so much blood drawn, why don't you have a cup of blood-nourishing soup to help you recover? This is some good stuff I had someone bring back from the City God Temple!" Wang Xiuzhen said to the maid, "Why aren't you sending it by express? You're so slow!"
Mrs. Xia found this amusing. They hadn't even had their blood drawn yet, so why the need for blood transfusions? And 5cc of blood was such a small amount; did they really need to be replenished?
Women lose dozens of IVF tubes a day during their period! Is it really necessary?
"No need, I'm getting old. Drinking soup and broth might not look good if we get stuck in traffic," Mrs. Xia politely declined. "Young people should drink it!"
When the maid heard that Madam Xia didn't want to drink it, she took the thermos back. But as soon as she turned around, Wang Xiuzhen snatched the thermos from the maid's hand, patted it, and said to Madam Xia, "This is a good thing, very authentic. Madam Xia doesn't want to drink it now, but you can take it home and drink it!"
Madam Xia found Wang Xiuzhen's behavior somewhat amusing. Was it really necessary to make such a fuss over a bowl of red beans and longan?
She has this stuff at the food court, and she also has it at home. Even if she doesn't have it, she can get it made.
What's the skill level of the Xia family's cook? Could they be any worse than the ones at the City God Temple?
"Secretary Huang." Madam Xia didn't go to answer, but instead called to the two people who had accompanied her today, "Is this something rare? Butler Zhan, can't we make this sweet soup at home?"
Is that a question?
Hearing this, even Wang Xiuzhen, who was usually quite naive, understood. It was one thing for the other party not to appreciate it, but the other party's ingratitude and their inability to obtain the sweet soup was a sign of their arrogance and contempt.
This could offend someone! If we insist on going further, offending Madam Xia would be a huge loss.
“The Xia family is so wealthy, how could they not have such worthless little things? Look, I'm just being too concerned about you!” Wang Xiuzhen flattered her first, then turned to scold the servant, “Blind! Madam Xia doesn’t have any? Why are you meddling!”
Madam Xia was speechless. Whether to take it or not, whether to give it as a gift or not, was not a decision a servant could make. Could it be that the Jiang family had changed masters?
It was clearly Wang Xiuzhen who forcibly bought and delivered the goods; what does it have to do with the servants?
However, they really did need to have a lot of blood drawn today. Just like before the surgery last time, Jiang Xuanxuan and Mrs. Xia each had 10cc of blood drawn.
After the nurse finished drawing blood, she pushed the cart away, and the hospital director was waiting around the corner in the corridor.
When the nurse pushed the cart to him, she handed him two vials of blood.
Just after these procedures were completed, the doctor in charge of the genetic screening appeared. He was a chief physician at the hospital named Shen Wei.
This authoritative person was chosen because the sample was taken from the Xia and Jiang families, who are somewhat well-known.
"What are you doing here? After you've drawn the blood, why aren't you sending the sample to the lab?" From Shen Wei's perspective, the corner of the wall was blocking the dean's view, which is why he adopted this attitude.
"Director Shen," the nurse nodded and greeted him respectfully, "is the dean giving a speech."
"Dean? What dean..." Before he could finish the word "dean," Shen Wei, who had already reached the end of the corridor, saw the dean standing at the left corner. "Dean? Dean, you're here!"
"Director Shen," the dean nodded, "Are you in charge of conducting the genetic screening for the Xia and Jiang families this time?"
With a forced smile and a stern expression, Shen Wei bowed and scraped, saying, "I am honored to accept this task, Dean, for your kind offer."
"Yes! Do it well! Be careful!" the dean reminded him. "The media attention on the Xia and Jiang families is too great; it's a hot potato. If something goes wrong... I can't guarantee your safety. You'll have to rely on your own luck!"
Shen Wei was startled. Did the dean already know? But after secretly glancing at the dean, he couldn't see any different expression on his face.
He thought: Maybe it's true, as the hospital director said, that this result has attracted a lot of attention and the hospital doesn't want to cause trouble.
Thinking about it that way, he relaxed again: "That's right, that's right! Don't worry, Dean, I guarantee with my professionalism and reputation that there will definitely be no mistakes!"
The dean stared straight at Shen Wei, which made him feel uneasy again, but all he got in return was a simple "hmm" from the dean.
Anyway, the blood sample is already obtained, and Shen Wei has already given him a heads-up. Hopefully, Shen Wei will understand his warning and behave himself; otherwise, his medical license might be in jeopardy…
To avoid any mistakes, the Xia family didn't request expedited genetic testing. Wang Xiuzhen, however, was anxious because she couldn't stand Jiang Jucai's shrewish attitude for even a day longer.
She has always been the one who makes the decisions at home. How could she swallow her pride and lower her head just to keep her position as Mrs. Jiang?
But Jiang Xuanxuan wasn't in a hurry. 48 hours is fine! It's only two days. She'll be able to turn things around in two days!
When she left the hospital, she told Mrs. Xia that the two families should visit each other more often, as if she already knew that Jiang Xuanxuan would definitely be Mrs. Xia's daughter.
As soon as she got back into the car, Mrs. Xia threw herself onto the back seat with a thud: "Ugh! I've finally gotten rid of that annoying woman!"
"Madam," Secretary Huang said, getting into the driver's seat, "Shall we go straight to the Xia residence?"
"No! Let's go to the commercial and residential building!" Mrs. Xia thought for a moment.
"good!"
In the suite of the commercial and residential building, Xia Changlong and Yang Yajing were already waiting for her.
