Reborn as a Rich Woman in the Eighties
Chapter 677 - 676: Isn’t this the reason?

Chapter 677: Chapter 676: Isn’t this the reason?

Lin Xia originally planned to visit her maternal grandfather, Qin Zeming, and Lin Chun’s family for a reunion and to check out a house they had recently purchased in the adjacent staff compound.

Now, because of the unexpected arrival of the baby, her plans were completely disrupted.

But everyone was happy, Lin Chun and Qin Zeming, they were all excited for Lin Xia.

By now, Lin Xia and Lu Zheng had been married for a year.

Initially, it was reasonable for them not to have children since they weren’t together often.

Now that they had been together for several months, if there was no sign of pregnancy, outsiders aside, even they had their slight worries, fearing that one of them might have a problem.

Now, with Lin Xia finally pregnant, all those worries dissipated.

The most interesting reaction came from Qin Zeming and Li Yulan.

The elderly couple even wished for Lin Xia to stay with them for her pregnancy, so they could take care of her closely.

Of course, Lin Xia couldn’t agree, because if everything went smoothly, she only wanted to be with Lu Zheng during her pregnancy, to witness the growth of their child together.

Later, they agreed that once Lin Dong finished her exams and the winter school break began, they would come to visit Lin Xia.

Shao Chengzhi, on the other hand, was thrilled to hear that his grandchild was finally expecting, and his spirits were lifted significantly.

He excitedly instructed Meirou to buy this and that, to prepare for them.

He even wanted Shao Meirou to visit Lu Zheng’s place, "Meirou! They are young and inexperienced.

What Lin Xia needs to pay attention to during the early stages of her pregnancy, what nutrients she needs to supplement, go over and help them keep an eye on these things."

"Dad! After all, Lin Xia has just become pregnant. I think I will wait a little longer before visiting! Whatever we think is good, we can mail it to them or send it with someone who’s going that way.

As for the precautions, we can tell them over the phone too!"

Actually, she couldn’t wait to go see them herself; she was genuinely overjoyed that her only son was becoming a father.

Ever since her son got married, one of the things friends and relatives most frequently asked about when they met was whether the daughter-in-law was pregnant yet.

As time passed, the more peculiar looks she received from others, and now at last, she could stand tall and proudly say that her daughter-in-law was expecting!

However, her elderly father’s health was fluctuating, and it wouldn’t be right if he didn’t have someone dependable and caring by his side.

But her own brothers and sisters were busy with their jobs.

Only she had the time to care for their father.

"What can you really explain over the phone? You better visit them as soon as possible!" Shao Chengzhi strongly urged her, "Meirou! You know, Lin Xia lost her mother early, and her father remarried. She’s new to pregnancy and might not understand much. She and our Xiaozheng must be anxious and confused.

You’ve been through it all; go and see them, you might be able to give some guidance if they don’t understand something."

He knew quite a lot about the situation in Lin Xia’s family, knowing how tough it was to be without a mother.

It’s hard not to have someone to confide in or ask for advice in times of need.

Shao Meirou felt torn between her father on one side and her son and daughter-in-law on the other.

She expressed her heartfelt concerns, "Dad! I understand what you’re saying! But I’m mainly worried about you..."

Shao Chengzhi laughed heartily, as he had already guessed his daughter’s thoughts.

He waved his hand nonchalantly, "What’s there to worry about with me? Didn’t the doctor already tell me? Rest and keep a good mood!

Now that one of my two big wishes has been half fulfilled, what else do I have to be upset about?

Besides, there’s Meifang. Have your sister visit me after work. Don’t worry; I’ll make sure to take my medication on time."

"You should get ready to set out as soon as possible! Once you’re there, thank Lin Xia for me, tell her she’s had it tough..."

Shao Meirou ultimately couldn’t win against Shao Chengzhi, "Alright then! I’ll go early and return early!"

Before departing, Shao Meirou visited Lu Guangqi’s house.

"Dad! Mom! I’m setting off for Xiaozheng’s place tomorrow!" Shao Meirou’s family knew she was going to Lu Zheng’s, and they all bought some gifts to show their support.

She thought about it and didn’t want to show partiality; besides, if she didn’t make the trip, her mother-in-law would surely find fault and take offense later on.

Lu Guangqi smiled sincerely, "Leaving tomorrow, huh! Then, Meirou, why don’t you bring some things over for us!" Saying this, he looked towards Fang Youlan at his side, "Partner, what do you think we should prepare that would be appropriate?"

Fang Youlan pondered, "This is all so rushed, I’m not sure what to prepare for them, maybe we should send some nourishing supplements!"

When Fang Youlan had just learned of Lin Xia’s pregnancy, her feelings were actually quite complex.

On one hand, she was happy that her grandson finally had an heir, so she no longer needed to worry about the issue of descendants.

On the other hand, she still hadn’t completely let go of the past events to this day.

Therefore, deep down she resented that the child was coming from Lin Xia’s womb.

But today, when Shao Meirou came over to talk about visiting Lu Zheng and his wife, as a grandmother, she had to express her support no matter what.

Lu Guangqi had no objections, "Nourishing supplements are good! Take more!"

Fang Youlan glanced at him and stood up to direct the housekeeper to gather the supplements.

Afterward, she sat on the sofa and started chatting idly with Shao Meirou.

"Meirou! This is what I think, life must be hard where Xiaozheng is, and it must not be convenient to buy anything. It would be better to have Lin Xia come back to secure the pregnancy!

That way, we can all take care of her close by, and a pregnant woman’s nutrition must be kept up, so the baby can grow up healthy! You agree that’s the case, don’t you?"

She felt this way entirely for the sake of her unborn great-grandchild.

She didn’t want the baby’s foundation to be weak from the start.

Shao Meirou didn’t outright refuse, but with a gentle smile, she nodded, "Yes! Mom! Actually, I was thinking just that! But in the end, it’s up to the two kids!"

Fang Youlan felt a bit uncomfortable inside, but she knew that Shao Meirou couldn’t decide for Lu Zheng, "That’s fine! We’ll see what they have to say! In any case, we as elders want what’s best for them!"

Lu Guangqi saw that Fang Youlan was upset, so he quickly said, "Why are you in such a hurry when the pregnancy is just beginning? Shouldn’t we wait until it’s more stable before discussing this?

Otherwise, travel could be too taxing, and if anything went wrong, we would regret it beyond measure!"

Fang Youlan reconsidered and instantly felt a bit better...

Fang Youlan’s mood improved, but someone’s face looked extremely bad!

That person was Meng Xiangzi!

Meng Xiangzi had come to the school today to see her brother, Meng Xiangnan, about something, but she didn’t expect to hear news that shocked her!

Lin Xia was actually pregnant!

The moment she found out, she was so furiously enraged that she nearly lost control and shrieked hysterically.

How could Lin Xia have become pregnant so easily?

She had thought that nothing would happen with Lin Xia’s pregnancy for a while, leaving her some time to act!

Unfortunately, Lin Xia had indeed become pregnant!

Completely disrupting her plans...
