Chapter 223: She is my aunt, how can she be my godmother?



Hearing the voice, Qiao Xiazhi knew who was coming.

"Brother Maidong is here." Qiao Xiazhi responded while opening the gate of the yard.

As soon as the door opened, Yu Maidong and his wife were standing at the door carrying a lot of bags.

"Happy Summer Solstice and New Year." Gao Ping said.

"Brother Maidong, sister-in-law, happy new year, please come in."

"You guys should just come, why do you bring so many things?"

Yu Maidong: "Isn't that how Chinese New Year is celebrated? No one would come to visit empty-handed to pay New Year's greetings."

After saying that, when they got into the house, Yu Maidong gave the toys to the four children first.

"These are toys for Xiaoyun, Xiaomo, Tangtang, and Ningning. Come and see if you like them."

The four little ones received the toys and jumped happily on the kang.

"Thank you, Uncle Yu."

Aunt Xu poured a bowl of hot egg sweet rice wine for Yu Maidong and Gao Ping.

"Why don't you two have dinner here before going back?"

Yu Maidong quickly refused: "No, no, I won't have dinner. I have to go back home in the evening. I have something to do at home."

"I learned that Xia Zhi had returned to Hai City, so I took some time to come and visit her. By the way, I asked Xia Zhi to help her sister-in-law sell it."

Hearing this, Qiao Xiazhi asked, "What happened to my sister-in-law?"

As he spoke, Qiao Xiazhi raised his hand and took Gao Ping's pulse.

After a while, Qiao Xiazhi smiled.

"My sister-in-law is pregnant, it's been two months. Congratulations."

Yu Maidong looked at Qiao Xiazhi gratefully: "It's all thanks to you. Otherwise, I would be..."

In the year when the college entrance examination was resumed, Qiao Xiazhi won the title of national champion with the highest score in the country. Secretary Yu personally came to his home to congratulate him and also gave him a scholarship.

Qiao Xiazhi gave Yu Maidong a watermelon, and because of the watermelon, Yu Maidong’s leg healed and he hasn’t had an attack for more than a year.

The whole family was exhausted physically and mentally due to the illness, and later Yu Maidong's wife ran away.

Yu Maidong almost lost his mind.

Fortunately, I ate the watermelon leg soup and it has been cured for more than a year.

It took more than a year for Maidong to slowly come out of his grief and he went out more often.

Gradually, I felt happier and more receptive to advice.

More than a year later, Secretary Yu's secretary Xiao Wang plucked up the courage to bring it up again, asking Secretary Yu to take Yu Maidong to find Qiao Xiazhi to give it a try.

Yu Maidong agreed at that time, thinking he might as well give it a try.

Anyway, my legs don’t hurt now, so it won’t hurt to give it a try.

Then, accompanied by Wen Qing, she made an appointment to see Qiao Xiazhi, an expert.

Sure enough, this trip was fruitful.

When Qiao Xiazhi explained the situation to them and finally told them that she could cure the leg, Wen Qing and Yu Maidong were overjoyed.

After three months of treatment and another three months of rehabilitation, Yu Maidong was able to move freely on his own in half a year.

The first thing Yu Maidong did after he was able to stand up was to thank Qiao Xiazhi.

Wen Qing even wanted to acknowledge Qiao Xiazhi as her goddaughter.

However, because of Secretary Yu's identity, in order to avoid some public opinion, Yu Maidong and Qiao Xiazhi were allowed to recognize each other as their sisters and brothers.

Later, after Yu Maidong's leg healed, he returned to normal and found a new wife last year. Unexpectedly, good news came this year.

Gao Ping touched her belly and agreed: "Yes, we are where we are today, thanks to you. You have to be the child's godmother when the time comes."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiazhi smiled and said, "I have already acknowledged Brother Mai Dong as my eldest brother, so logically I shouldn't be the aunt?"

After hearing this, Yu Maidong laughed out loud, "Hahaha~~ I was so happy that I forgot about this matter. It's my aunt, it's my aunt. How can my aunt recognize my godmother again?"

Gao Ping also laughed and said, "I was confused, I was confused."

Qiao Xiazhi: "You guys are so happy. I understand. I understand."

"My sister-in-law is now two months pregnant. The due date is around the end of September or the beginning of October. You have to remember to do a pregnancy checkup every month when you have time. That way you can rest assured."

Gao Ping nodded and agreed: "Don't worry, even if you don't tell me, my mother-in-law reminds me every day."

Qiao Xiazhi: "Of course. She has been looking forward to this grandson for a long time, so she must treat him as a treasure."

Yu Maidong was so happy that he didn't pay much attention to what Qiao Xiazhi meant. He then said, "My mother wanted to come with us, but she has something else to do at home tonight and she can't leave for the time being."

"Then let me tell you, she will come and chat with you after she finishes this."

Qiao Xiazhi: "It's okay, I'll come over whenever I have time."

Gao Ping: "By the way, didn't you say before that you were going to build a hotel this year? Have you contacted the construction team?"

Qiao Xiazhi: "I plan to talk to the construction team after the Lantern Festival."

Gao Ping: "Then can I introduce someone to you?"

Qiao Xiazhi: “Who?”

Gao Ping: "My eldest brother. He also set up a construction team last year, but he actually has seven or eight years of experience in building houses."

"Last year, because the previous team kept deducting workers' wages, he simply left to do it on his own last year."

"The workers there are all very experienced. They also built the resettlement buildings in the university town before."

Qiao Xiazhi: "Then I'll tell you the truth, sister-in-law, don't be upset. Although we have this relationship, it's good to let you do the hotel business."

"But the original plan for my hotel was to build about 13 floors. I also learned before that if some special materials are imported from abroad, the elevator floors can reach about 18 floors."

"So my plan may be to expand the restaurant to 18 floors. This will save the need to tear it down and rebuild it or add more floors later."

"It's a big hotel on the 18th floor, so this can be said to be a big project, so I can't say for sure that I can give it to you now."

"But you can ask Big Brother to arrange a time for us to talk. If they can meet my requirements in terms of experience and skills, then I will definitely feel at ease letting one of our own family do the job."

Yu Maidong was shocked when he heard this: "18 floors, so high?"

"Currently the tallest building in our country is only 10 or 12 stories high. Your 18th floor is almost twice as high."

Qiao Xiazhi nodded: "Yes, so there are many very high and strict requirements during the construction. There must not be any problems at any time, otherwise my restaurant will be ruined."

If a murder occurs during the construction, who would dare to live here in the future? Wouldn't this restaurant be equivalent to being abandoned?

Therefore, Qiao Xiazhi did not dare to neglect it.

Originally, she wanted to ask the government engineering team for help, but now that Gao Ping has asked for it, she must give them the opportunity.

So she said it out of the blue: let's meet and talk first, and then talk about other things after the requirements are met.
