“The child is fine! He’s in the nursery now! But… but the bumpy journey has had some impact on him. You can’t see him now. Get well quickly so that you can go and look for him,” Xia He said.

“You’re not lying to me, right?” Qiao Mei asked.

“Why would I lie to you? The child is really fine,” Xia He said.

Qiao Mei sighed. She asked everyone in the ward to go out, leaving only Xia He and Xia Wen behind. This matter could not be dealt with lightly. Tan Jing must pay the price in blood!

“Eldest Brother, L..” Qiao Mei wanted to explain how she found the child, but Xia Wen quickly said, “l believe you. You don’t have to say anything else. The most important thing now is to take good care of your health. Only when you’re healthy can you go and settle the scores with them.”

“Eldest Brother is right. You must take good care of yourself! All of us will support you!” Xia He said agitatedly.

“I’m almost fully recovered, just still a little tired. Eldest Brother, has this matter been settled?” Qiao Mei asked.

Xia Wen shook his head regretfully. He could not think of any good solutions at the moment. He could only restrict the Huang family’s movements for now and prevent them from taking even half a step out of the capital.

“l understand. Let’s talk about this later. Now is not the time,” Qiao Mei said.

“Do you already have an idea?” Xia Wen asked.

“Yes. Don’t worry, Eldest Brother. Even if 1 want to kill someone, I’ll do it quietly and won’t cause any trouble for the Xia family,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Xia He and Xia Wen both knew very well that Qiao Mei was not joking when she said that. She must have really thought about killing Tan Jinga They did not object, but they did not support it either. Tan Jings actions were indeed deserving of death, but this was a society governed by law after all and it was not good to go around committing murder.

“We’ll settle the score with them in the future. The most important thing now is not to take revenge, but to take good care of your health. Do you understand?” Xia Wen reminded her.

Qiao Mei nodded seriously. She had slept very soundly these past few days and had never felt so at ease before. Although the energy she lost had not been completely replenished, she did not feel so tired anymore. Soon, both mother and son returned to the courtyard house to go through her confinement period.

One month later, Qiao Mei and the child went to the hospital for a checkup. There were no problems and the child was healthy, without any lingering issues. Qiao Mei finally felt a sense of relief.

It had been very lively in the Xia family’s house for the past few days. They were all discussing the name for the new child and arguing non-stop. It was as troublesome as naming Xia Fan and Xia Xing back then.

“l say to name him Xia Gang! Why don’t all of you like the name! Isn’t the name Xia Gang good? In the future, he’ll be as strong as Xia Zhe and be the next ‘top army warrior!” Xia He said agitatedly.

“What’s so good about that name! How do you know that this child will join the army in the future! We should name him Xia Shu. Elegance never goes out of fashion!” Xia Wen argued.

“A boy should be more manly! We should name him Xia Gang!” Xia He shouted.

Just as the two of them argued non-stop, Qiao Mei suddenly said, “Everyone, stop arguing! Let’s name him… Xia Yue!”

Since the other two children’s names were taken from “Fan Xing”, meaning clusters of stars, then they should also have the moon, “Yue”. She hoped that this child would grow up to be as bright and dazzling as the moon in the future.

If Qiao Mei and Xia Zhe had any more children in the future, they could name them Xia Ye, Xia Ri, Xia Yun, Xia Yu, and so on. They could use words that represented the climate and the weather. It would be fun to have names which could make up the weather forecast.

“That’s not bad. This name sounds very nice. What about his nickname?” Xia Wen asked.

Everyone started arguing again. Qiao Mei sighed. Fortunately, she did not let them decide on the names of her children. They could only come up with common names like Yong, Zhuang and Jian. If the children had such names, they would definitely complain about it when they grew up…

On the same day that Qiao Mei gave birth, there were also sounds of a baby crying at the He family’s house. He Mei had also given birth to a son. He Ning found a private doctor to deliver the baby for her at home and did not send her to the hospital. He did not want this issue to be widely known and he particularly did not want the Xia family to be aware of it.

He Mei did not even want to look at the child. He had been crying since he was born and was so noisy that He Mei could not sleep well at all.

“Why can’t you stop him! Why is he still crying!” He Mei said unhappily.

“All babies are like this when they’re born. He’ll be fine after crying for a while,” Du Juan, the helper taking care of He Mei, said..
