Chapter 188: Chapter 187: Guan Mingli is Pregnant (Monthly Tickets 850+)
"Xiaoxiao, it’s like you’re treating me as an outsider, I’m really glad I went out with Big Brother today," Gao Jiaxing said, a clear smile in his eyes.
Xia Xiao also smiled, "Cousin Yuanchao used to study at the military academy and now should be in the army; it’s been a long time since I last saw him."
Xia Xiao only knew that Liu Yuanchao had been studying at the military academy, and she didn’t know when he graduated. She didn’t understand military matters but was happy for Liu Yuanchao in her heart.
"He said he would come over on the second day of the lunar year to spar with me." Gao Jiaxing was already looking forward to the confrontation with Liu Yuanchao, excitement sparkling in his eyes.
"That’s great, I’d like to see how you two match up," Xia Xiao remarked as she began discussing Zhao Xiang and Zhao Yan with Gao Jiaxing.
Gao Jiaxing nodded. He had heard Xia Chunrong calling Zhao Xiang ’big cousin’ but hadn’t expected this kind of situation.
At that moment, Gao Jiaxing frowned and warned, "That Zhao Xiang and Zhao Yan are no good; they clearly harbour hatred towards your brother, or maybe towards the Xia Family. Plus, they are associated with rebels. Tell your family to be cautious."
Xia Xiao also furrowed her brows, at a loss about what to do with Zhao Xiang and Zhao Yan, who were clearly harboring enmity against the Xia Family because of the Zhao family.
She couldn’t just eliminate Zhao Xiang and Zhao Yan; such a thing Xia Xiao could not do. A warning was useless, and as long as they harbored hatred in their hearts and could speak and act, they could still cause trouble for the Xia Family.
Nor could she cripple them; Xia Xiao wasn’t capable of such acts, so she found herself without a strategy at the moment.
Leaving the room with Gao Jiaxing, Xia Xiao listened to her family discussing Zhao Xiaolan’s plight, with Li Wenjuan saying, "I heard Big Brother is having a tough time at the factory, constantly being pushed around by Zhao Xiaolan; it’s been hard on Big Brother."
At this moment, Li Wenjuan felt great sympathy for Xia Jianguo. Zhao Xiaolan had married a man with good conditions, and taking advantage of his status, she often troubled Xia Jianguo.
Zhao Xiaolan, the Zhao family, Zhao Xiang, Zhao Yan...
Xia Xiao kept thinking about what she should do about these people. Suddenly, an idea struck her, somewhat unscrupulous, but compared to resorting to killing or maiming people, it was a far more honorable approach.
Xia Xiao went into her room, locked the door, and then into the space, she said to Shitou, "I’m thinking of letting Zhao Daguo and Guan Mingli drink the spring water from the space."
"As you wish," replied Shitou.
This was the solution Xia Xiao came up with. She didn’t have any of those fake pregnancy drugs or those that induce pregnancy, so she could only resort to the spring water from the space to actually impregnate Guan Mingli.
Xia Xiao went straight to Zhao Daguo and Guan Mingli’s room at the Zhao household, thinking that they had already gone to sleep and planning to take out a kettle and fill it with spring water, but then she overheard Zhao Daguo and Guan Mingli talking.
Moreover, Guan Mingli used to be a young lady from a wealthy family and had eloped with Zhao Daguo out of love. Even if she did have nieces, she wouldn’t care about the little the Zhao family or Zhao Xiang and Zhao Yan had.
So, Guan Mingli was even more eager to have her own child, whether it was a boy or girl didn’t matter.
At this point, Xia Xiao paused. Was Guan Mingli pregnant?
Immediately, Xia Xiao darted into the space and asked Shitou, "Can you tell if she is pregnant?"
Soon, Shitou replied, "Yes, she’s carrying a child, but it’s weak."
Xia Xiao decided against using the spring water and said to Shitou, "Let’s go back."
As for Zhao Xiang and Zhao Yan, Xia Xiao now didn’t plan on troubling them anymore. Let them fight with Guan Mingli instead.
Now that Zhao Xiang and Zhao Yan had taken the Zhao surname, recorded under Zhao Daguo and Guan Mingli’s name, if Zhao Daguo and Guan Mingli didn’t have children, Zhao Xiang and Zhao Yan would naturally inherit everything from the Zhao family in the future; but if Zhao Daguo and Guan Mingli had a child, things would become complicated.
She was curious to see what Zhao Xiang and Zhao Yan’s reactions would be when they found out Guan Mingli was pregnant.
After returning home, Xia Xiao immediately lay down in bed to sleep. Xia Lin asked from beside her, "Sis, where did you just go?" fгeewebnovёl.com
Startled, Xia Xiao said, "I went to the bathroom."
Xia Lin let out an ’Oh’ and continued sleeping next to Xia Xiao.
Xia Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she would have to be more careful next time.
The next morning was New Year’s Eve, and her eldest uncle, Xia Jianguo, came back home, as did her second uncle’s family.
Learning that Xia Xiao had brought someone home, everyone gathered around, and they also quickly learned about the encounter Xia Rong and Gao Jiaxing had with Zhao Xiang and Zhao Yan.
Everyone was very angry, and Xia Jianguo became silent, saying nothing.
Xia Baoguo said, "Big Brother, you should find someone else to spend your life with."
Xia Jianguo shook his head, unwilling to look for another partner. He felt that living alone was quite nice, more peaceful. Now, because of Zhao Xiaolan’s disturbances, Xia Jianguo was growing to enjoy the quiet and feared any tumult.
Mrs. Xia pursed her lips but in the end said nothing, secretly hoping her son could find someone who understood warmth and coldness but was afraid of encountering another Zhao Xiaolan.
Truthfully, Xia Xiao also hoped that Xia Jianguo would find someone again, but not now; she was worried that if Xia Jianguo found another partner, it might provoke the hatred of Zhao Xiang, Zhao Yan, and even Zhao Xiaolan, potentially dragging the Xia Family into trouble.
Seeing Xia Xiao, Xia Wei crowded in, sharing quite a few things that had been going on. Many schools had now closed.
"Is auntie still teaching?" Xia Xiao asked.
Xia Wei nodded, "Yes, my mom’s school is still holding classes."
