Chapter 325: Chapter 325: Pregnant

“Yes, I just went to the hospital for a check-up, Ah Li had informed me beforehand, he didn’t leave without saying anything, it’s okay, work is important,” Sang Qiao spoke softly, explaining.

From the few words exchanged by the Si Family, she could roughly guess why they had come over, mostly because they had heard about her hospital visit.

“It’s good that there wasn’t any quarrel, did you go to the hospital because you were feeling unwell?” Old Madam Si’s originally tense heart relaxed significantly in an instant.

At this question, the Si Family members all crowded closer, anxious.

“No, I’m pregnant,” Sang Qiao lifted her eyes, calmly stating the news.

This statement made the Si Family ecstatic, with Old Madam Si excitedly grabbing her hand, “Qiaoqiao, you mustn’t overexert yourself recently. It’s better to handle the company matters lightly and rest more.”

“Yes, yes, yes, how about I come over to take care of you? Ah Li is not here now, and the maids at home are quite young, they probably don’t understand.”

Mrs. Si’s face was also filled with joy, her first grandchild was on the way!

She had waited most of her life and finally, it was happening, boy or girl, she would love them either.

“It’s okay, I just got pregnant recently, I can take care of myself.” Sang Qiao didn’t want to trouble them, her condition was still fine, though she occasionally felt nauseous.

“Qiaoqiao, don’t refuse, we don’t have much to do at home, and besides, this is your first child, there’s a lot you don’t understand; having someone help you around would be better.”

Old Madam Si spoke earnestly, genuinely worried about Qiaoqiao managing alone.

The child was stubborn, even if wronged, she wouldn’t speak up, if something happened while she was alone at home, she feared she would just endure alone.

“Yes, we know you like your own space, don’t worry, we won’t watch you all the time, just during meals and when you need us, we won’t disturb you, just chat on the side.”

Mrs. Si spoke considerately, and if Qiaoqiao found them too noisy, they would even refrain from speaking.

“Just let the two of them come take care of you, child,” Old Sir Si also couldn’t help but join in urging her.

Under everyone’s persuasion, Sang Qiao couldn’t decline any longer, it was not right to make the elderly feel unwanted.

“Alright, if grandma and mom want to come and stay, moving here would be fine, there are plenty of rooms.”

“Ok, ok, ok, we’ll have the driver bring the luggage over later, Qiaoqiao, what do you want to eat tonight? I’ll have Nanny Wang make you something.”

Old Madam Si, holding Sang Qiao’s hand, walked towards the living room, her face full of smiles.

Si Jing might never be cured in this lifetime, she could only hope that Qiaoqiao would give her a great-grandson or great-granddaughter.

“Yes, yes, yes, call Nanny Wang over, she took good care of me when I was pregnant with Chenli, not only is her cooking excellent, but she also takes good care of people.”

Mrs. Si, walking beside her, also spoke in a very joyful tone.

As Sang Qiao took a step forward, she suddenly remembered something, turned her head and said, “Ah He, come in for dinner.”

It was then that Mrs. Si noticed someone else was there; when she initially arrived, her entire focus was on the child in Qiaoqiao’s belly, so she had failed to notice Meng Jiahe.

At that moment, she felt completely ignoring Meng Jiahe was a bit improper and immediately turned around to take her hand.

“Ah He is also here, come on in, I really appreciate you accompanying our Qiaoqiao for the check-up today.”

Initially planning not to disturb much and return home, Meng Jiahe suddenly found herself being warmly led inside; her face showed a bit of embarrassment, actually, she wanted to say, if Mrs. Si had really ignored her, it wouldn’t have mattered.

There was no need to suddenly be so enthusiastic in pulling her along.

“No need to thank me, going with Qiaoqiao for the check-up is what I should do.”

“You are such a good kid, Qiaoqiao is lucky to have a friend like you. We are happy for her too. You should also give it your best shot and try to get pregnant soon.”

Mrs. Si, excited, couldn’t help but talk a lot. She had also seen Shangguan Yuan’s actions during the wedding, and he was indeed a good kid.

In every aspect, he was excellent and suited Ah He very well.

“Okay, okay.” Meng Jiahe responded awkwardly. When the topic of children came up, she couldn’t help but think about having children with Shangguan Yuan…

It seemed like a distant matter, yet also one that felt very close.

“Ah He, if there’s anything you want to eat, just say it, and I’ll have Nanny Wang cook it for us,”

“It’s okay, I’m not picky. Anything is fine.”

Although Old Madam Si had left with Sang Qiao, Meng Jiahe wasn’t bored being led by Mrs. Si, who was extremely enthusiastic.

“Our weddings were held together; how wonderful it would be if you could have children at the same time!” Old Madam Si couldn’t help but turn around and look at the two behind her.

“Pfft, I don’t think that’s likely. I’m not pregnant yet. The wedding was deliberately planned together.”

Meng Jiahe laughed helplessly, feeling that the conversation with the Si Family always revolved around children, but she didn’t mind it.

If she and Shangguan Yuan really had a child, she would definitely treat it very well.

She would never let the child experience the regrets she had gone through.

After they entered the villa, they all sat down and chatted.

Old Sir Si and Father Si had already returned to the Si family home to help pack up his wife’s luggage and relocate most of the housemaids there.

Worried that Sang Qiao might not cope well on her own with the baby, Old Madam Si and Mrs. Si also needed care.

Once everything was arranged, Old Madam Si and the others had already eaten.

Father Si and Old Sir Si also returned to the old house of the Si family. Both collapsed on the sofa, breathless and too tired to move, feeling that something was amiss.

It wasn’t until they saw that none of the maids who usually lined up were left that they looked at each other.

Father Si: “…”

“Dad, it seems we’ve sent all the servants over.”

“None of the chefs are left, are they?” Old Sir Si felt extremely hungry and tired, lacking even the strength to go to the kitchen himself.

“It seems so.” Father Si said weakly, slapping his forehead. He had completely overlooked their own needs in his excitement!

“Quickly order some takeaway, I’m starving.”

“Alright, alright. Should we ask for a couple of servants and a chef to come back?”

Father Si immediately started ordering takeaway on his phone and casually mentioned the latter, otherwise, they wouldn’t know when mom and the wife would be back. They couldn’t possibly rely on takeaway every day, could they?

Not to mention that takeaway wasn’t very clean, but they also had to wait an extra half an hour, and sometimes it wasn’t even tasty.

“Let’s not ask them to come back.” Old Sir Si, through many years of marriage, already knew Old Madam Si’s behavior.
