The Reborn Aristocrat's Daughter-Chapter 809 - 778: Pregnant with Triplets (2)
Chapter 809: Chapter 778: Pregnant with Triplets (2)
Liu Yun trembled with anger after hearing Xiao Muli’s words. She pointed at Xiao Muli’s departing figure and said to Xiao Guobing, "Look, look at our great son, he actually treats me like this for a woman."
"Shut your mouth, if it weren’t for you, could Muli speak so decisively? Hmph, what woman, that is Muli’s wife, the mother of his future children, what’s wrong with him caring for Xiao Xin? Moreover, shouldn’t you reflect on yourself, why your own son harbors such hatred towards you? Have you ever thought about what you have done for him since Muli was born?"
Xiao Guobing, looking at his wife like this, also felt a wave of exhaustion. Previously, he had always been evasive or making excuses for his wife, Liu Yun’s, wrongdoings. But now, he suddenly realized how wrong his previous actions were. "You should think about it yourself. I hope you can take to heart what Muli said to us today. Alright, I’m going to sleep in the guest room tonight. Take some time to calm down and think."
After speaking, Xiao Guobing left the room without looking back. Watching Xiao Guobing’s departing figure, Liu Yun collapsed onto the bed. She couldn’t understand, couldn’t understand why her husband suddenly changed so much, couldn’t understand why the son she carried for ten months could treat her like this.
She still didn’t look for reasons within herself, instead always blaming others.
Xiao Muli came out of his parents’ room, thinking about his mother’s words and expressions, and realized something. He decided to have someone keep an eye on his mother. At this moment, Xiao Muli understood the main reason his grandfather had him relay this message to his parents today. It was to let him see all the potential hazards. Had he not witnessed his mother’s reaction today, he might not believe that his mother could one day harm his wife and child.
Later on, Xiao Muli was more than once grateful that he listened to his grandfather’s advice to make this trip, and glad that he had made arrangements in advance. Of course, these were all thoughts for later.
At this moment, Xiao Muli, feeling very upset, returned to his room to arrange for people and went to find Situ Xin to chat and unwind.
Situ Xin’s family expressed doubts about Situ Xin’s sudden decision to go to the hospital for a pregnancy check-up. They had spent so much effort talking, yet Situ Xin had previously not agreed. But after the engagement banquet, she told them she wanted to go for the check-up.
Although everyone was puzzled as to why Situ Xin suddenly changed her mind, they still agreed. Situ Xin’s aunt directly took out her mobile phone and called her gynecologist friend, setting up an appointment for the pregnancy check-up.
Situ Xin saw the doubt on everyone’s faces, but she didn’t point it out and instead excused herself due to being too tired, and went upstairs to rest.
As Situ Xin walked upstairs, she thought to herself about the expressions everyone would have when they found out the results of the prenatal check-up tomorrow, and she couldn’t help but feel gleeful.
What Situ Xin didn’t know was that as soon as she went upstairs, the people downstairs started discussing why Situ Xin suddenly decided to go for a prenatal check-up.
Old Master Situ said with a worried look, "What do you think, Baby suddenly wants to go for a prenatal check-up, could there be some problem with the child in Baby’s belly?"
"You old man, don’t talk nonsense," Old Madam Situ glared at Old Master Situ, and even Old Master Loo and the others disapproved, silently criticizing Old Master Situ’s pessimistic words.
But Old Master Situ was genuinely worried. "Don’t look at me like that, I’m just worried about Baby. Think about it, she previously told us with her medical expertise, there’s no need for any prenatal check-up, but now? The only possibility I can think of, other than there being some problem with the child in Baby’s belly, I really can’t think of anything else." Old Master Situ’s brows were tightly furrowed, and his face showed even more concern.
Hearing Old Master Situ say this, Situ Haotian and the others became unsettled. Situ Haotian anxiously said, "What are we waiting for? Let’s take Baby to the hospital for a prenatal check-up now, if there really is a problem, we can remedy it in time." Saying this, Situ Haotian was about to go upstairs to find Situ Xin.
"Haotian, stop right there. You’re not young anymore, why can’t you keep calm?" Old Master Loo thought for a moment and said, "Even if it’s really as your father said, that there’s a problem with the baby inside Baby’s belly, it can’t be too serious. Otherwise, why wouldn’t Baby be worried at all and even request to have the prenatal checkup tomorrow? So, let’s not scare ourselves; let’s listen to Baby. Since Baby has asked for a prenatal checkup tomorrow, we will accompany her there," After speaking, Old Master Loo stood up from the sofa and said, "Alright, everyone has been busy all day and are tired. Everyone go back and rest."
In his heart, Old Master Loo wasn’t as composed as he appeared on the surface; he actually agreed with Old Master Situ’s speculation, but he considered things more comprehensively than Old Master Situ. He thought of Situ Xin’s miraculous treasure, the Personal Space, and her capabilities. He also knew how much Situ Xin cared about the child in her belly and wouldn’t let anything happen to it. Hence, all this made Old Master Loo confident that the current situation was still under Situ Xin’s control.
Nevertheless, Old Master Loo couldn’t help but feel anxious and worried, as these thoughts ran through his mind. Not just Old Master Loo, but also Situ Xin’s family. Although they all dispersed and went to rest at Old Master Loo’s suggestion, everyone was still preoccupied, leading to a sleepless night for all.
And Situ Xin, who went back to call Muli to inform him about the prenatal checkup tomorrow, if she knew that her suggestion caused her family to lose sleep from worrying, she might wonder if she should still keep secrets or play such a small joke.
However, Situ Xin was completely unaware that her inadvertent action had caused her family to worry all night.
The next day, when Situ Xin woke up well-rested, aside from those who were incredibly busy and couldn’t even take leave, including her uncle Jianguo who generally has his hands full, everyone from both the Situ Family and Loo Family was in the living room downstairs. And Muli had also arrived at the Situ Family’s house early.
When Muli saw all the people sitting in the Situ family’s living room, he was also taken aback for a moment, wondering why everyone had arrived and gathered so completely today. Could it be that his actions yesterday had irritated the men of the Situ and Loo families, and this was a settling of accounts after autumn?
But, Muli quickly realized that his thoughts were entirely wrong, utterly wrong. He cautiously greeted Old Master Situ and the others, and they were surprisingly agreeable today, not showing any displeasure towards him, which puzzled him even more.
And Old Master Situ even asked Muli in a very pleasant tone if he had come to accompany Situ Xin for the prenatal checkup. After Muli nodded, Old Master Situ gave Old Master Loo a look that seemed to say "I told you so," bewildering Muli even further.
Seeing so many people sitting in her family’s living room, Situ Xin, a bit dazed, said, "Huh, why is everyone here? Is today Sunday?"
"Don’t worry about what day it is today. We all just happen to be free, so we came to accompany you to the prenatal checkup," Old Master Loo said to Situ Xin, immediately putting on a smiling face.
"Exactly, Baby, this is your first prenatal checkup, and we are all here to accompany you," Old Master Situ also, with a previously worried face now turned to a smile, said to Situ Xin.
Muli was quite surprised; he hadn’t expected so many people to accompany Situ Xin for the prenatal checkup. He thought, could it be that Situ Xin had already told everyone about her carrying triplets? Otherwise, he couldn’t explain why a simple prenatal checkup required so many people.
When Situ Xin heard that so many people were going with her for the prenatal checkup, she imagined the scene of their large troop arriving at the hospital’s obstetrics department, and she couldn’t help but feel black lines forming on her forehead. She initially wanted to say that there was no need for so many people to go.
However, the words she was about to say were swallowed back. She thought today’s prenatal checkup was mainly to tell everyone about her carrying triplets. She thought if she didn’t let her grandparents accompany her later, once the results came out, these old gentlemen and ladies would definitely be complaining about missing such a memorable opportunity. So, Situ Xin hesitated for a moment but eventually nodded in agreement.
But with Situ Xin’s nod, it was incredible; the hearts of Old Master Situ and the others sank quite a bit. They all sighed internally, thinking that given their Baby’s usual way of handling things, this matter was certainly not very optimistic.
And in this situation, completely unknown to Situ Xin, the misunderstanding was growing even larger.
The number of people in their group was indeed very significant. Situ Xin, observing the crowd bustling out of her house, felt that the number was sufficient to form a tour group. She regretted agreeing to their request to go together, but now her regret was futile. Situ Xin and Muli rode in one car with both old masters, while each old madam took a ride in their respective son’s car. Each family drove one car, and this convoy looked quite impressive, especially as they all carried military district plates.
