978 Explaining the Interior Design
Xia Wen knew that Qiao Mei was rich and that she had enough money for her and her children to spend for the rest of their lives, so he did not reject the gift. It was just that with his current status and position, it would be too ostentatious for him to bring this pager to work. It would easily attract suspicion and criticism from others.
“It’s not the new year or any festive season yet you’ve spent so much money. When I saw the pager that Xia He had on her waist today, I was wondering what happened. I thought she had made money recently, but now I see the real reason is you,” Xia Wen said with a smile.
“It’ll be much more convenient for everyone to keep in touch if we all bring it with us. Everyone in the family has one, so you have to accept it,” Qiao Mei said.
Qiao Mei’s gift made him feel a little guilty. Once he had time, he must make a trip down personally to take a look at the progress. He could not deal with it so carelessly.
“How’s Auntie feeling recently? Does she still have to go out to sell goods every day?” Xia Wen asked with concern.
Qiao Mei always felt awkward when this topic came up in their conversation. It was too weird for a government official in charge of economic development to ask her about her family’s business, especially since they were doing it illegally.
If Zhao Fei was the one talking to Xia Wen, he would probably pee his pants in fear.
“She’s in good health and I haven’t allowed her to go out recently. It’s getting too cold and I’m worried that she’ll get sick,” Qiao Mei said.
“That’s good. Health is more important than anything else. Have you given some thought to what Aunt said? The idea about you staying in the VIP ward for a while. You’ll be giving birth in another month, right?” Xia Wen asked Qiao Mei worriedly.
When Xia Fang spoke to Xu Lan, Xia Wen had heard snippets of their conversation. Since Qiao Mei was pregnant with twins, she could go into premature labor at any time. They were all very worried about Qiao Mei’s health and would feel much more at ease with professionals taking care of her.
“I still prefer to rest at home. There are so many people at my house, so don’t worry,” Qiao Mei said.
Seeing Qiao Mei’s firm attitude, Xia Wen did not say anything else. He decided to ask Xia Mao to send more security guards to keep watch near Qiao Mei’s house. If anything happened, they would be able to protect Qiao Mei immediately.
After a simple chat, everyone felt a little tired. Xia Wen also told Xu Lan that he intended to go home tomorrow and would not disrupt their lives any further. He wanted to return to his own place so that they would not worry too much about him.
When it was almost time to rest, Xu Lan excitedly brought Qiao Mei to her newly renovated room. The materials used here were all of the best quality and also had low levels of formaldehyde so that it was not detrimental to health. The renovation works were done by the most famous craftsmen in the capital and Xu Lan had personally supervised the entire renovation process. After opening all the windows and ventilating the room for so many days, it was now habitable.
“Mei Mei, look. This is the crib that I custom-made for the two children. The bed is extendable so that the children can keep using it as they grow up. There’s also a nanny’s room next to yours. I heard from Xia He that you don’t want us to be too tired so you intend to hire someone to take care of the children. I’ve already tidied up that room.”
“And here! I’ve changed your mattress to a Simmons mattress. Actually, I wanted to buy an ancient bed like what you have now, but it’s really not easy to move such a big bed into this house. It’s also too big for this house, so I think this bed is good enough. Sleep on it tonight and see if it’s comfortable. If it’s not to your liking, I’ll buy a new one.”
“I’ve changed the windows to the floor-to-ceiling type. Xia He tells me that you like to look out at the scenery, but the location of our house is actually not very good. Fortunately, we can see the neighbor’s garden. A few days ago, I gave them some money to spruce up their garden. It’ll be spring after you give birth. When you open the window then, you’ll be able to see a courtyard full of flowers!”
“And here That’s also”
Qiao Mei stood on the spot and watched Xu Lan explain in detail the different parts of the room and the ideas behind the design. She put in a lot of effort into every aspect. Even if it was just a screw in the room, Xu Lan would consider carefully whether there were any safety risks until the children reached two years old.
It appeared that Xu Lan was really nice to her and the children. She had really thought of everything.
