“If there’s really no other way, give him some sleeping pills so that he can be knocked out! Don’t let him make so much noise!” He Mei said.

He Ning stood outside the door and felt a little disgusted when he heard what He Mei said. Here was a mother who actually wanted to drug her own child. Was this something a human could do?

“This child still has to go to the Xia family alive! If you poison him to death, you can forget about your life!” He Ning said with a dark expression.

“Little Uncle… I don’t mean it… I’m just joking…” He Mei said fearfully.

“You know very well whether you’re joking or not. Take care of the child well now. When the time is right, I’ll bring you to the Xia family so that he can acknowledge his family. If anything happens to this child, you can forget about living,” He Ning said.

He Mei said excitedly, “Little Uncle! Why don’t we go now! Isn’t it the best time to go now?”

She heard that Qiao Mei had given birth on the same day as her. If she went to the Xia family to seek justice now, she could annoy Qiao Mei at the same time. Perhaps she could even make Qiao Mei so angry that she would fall sick!

The confinement period was meant to be the period for the women to recuperate. Some women naturally had weak constitutions. If they took good care of themselves after giving birth, they could even be cured of all their past illnesses. However, if they got agitated or caught a chill or fell sick during confinement, it would leave behind a lifelong illness that could not be cured.

“Let’s talk about it after your confinement period,” He Ning said expressionlessly.

He Mei felt touched as she watched He Ning leave. She thought that He Ning was concerned about her health.

The truth was that He Ning just did not want Qiao Mei to get angry and fall sick over this issue during her confinement period. After all, he wanted to hire a healthy chef. If Qiao Mei was always plagued by illnesses in the future, how could she take good care of him?

Finally, the time came for Xia Yue’s one-month-old celebration. The Xia family did not want to hold a grand celebration this time. They just wanted to have a small gathering at Qiao Mei’s house. Xia Yao’s entire family was out of town and it was inconvenient for them to come back in time, plus they did not want to have anything to do with Xia Guangs family. It was good to have a quiet and peaceful event.

“Mei Mei! Come over here!” Xia He and Xia Wen excitedly asked Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang to carry a few suitcases into the house. There were five suitcases of different sizes! Everyone knew very well what was in these suitcases.

“What are you doing?” Qiao Mei asked curiously as she carried Xia Yue.

“Guess how much money we made during this period of time! Everyone, make a guess!” Xia He said excitedly.

Qiao Mei looked at the size of the bags and tried to make an estimate.

“200,000 dollars?”

“Wrong! Guess again!” Xia Wen said with a laugh.

“More than 200,000 dollars! Don’t tell me it’s 300,000 dollars!” Xu Lan said excitedly.

“No! Keep guessing! Think bigger! Grandfather, guess how much money we made!” Xia He said as she looked at Xia Jun.

“My guess is 600,000! Am I right?” Xia Jun asked.

“Wow! Experience really counts for something! Grandfather is right! It’s 600,000 dollars!” Xia He said.

Xu Lan covered her mouth in shock. Ever since Qiao Mei married into their family, Xu Lan no longer found it surprising to see a lot of money. However, that was all Qiao Mei’s money. Right now, the money in front of her was her children’s earnings. They had each made at least 100,000 dollars! Of course she was excited!

“Save this money so that you can buy houses later!” Xu Lan said.

By now, everyone in their family had been influenced by Qiao Mei. Whenever they had money, they would think about buying a house. There was no need for Xu Lan to remind the two siblings about this matter. They had already bought new houses!

Based on what they agreed on previously, they would give Qiao Mei 240,000 dollars and split the remainder so they got 180,000 dollars each. Xia He even particularly went to the bank to get new bank notes. Xia Wen had specially instructed her to give Qiao Mei new bank notes. Qiao Mei was particular about cleanliness and did not like old things. Moreover, there were a lot of germs on old bank notes and it was also not good for the children.

“You’re giving me too much. We should get 200,000 dollars each. Don’t fight with me about this! It’s settled!” Qiao Mei took the extra 40,000 dollars, split it up equally and stuffed it into their pockets.

Xia Wen and Xia He immediately turned around and placed the money in front of Xia Yue as one of the items for the baby’s choose-an-item ceremony. Qiao Mei stopped them and said, “What are you doing!”

“Don’t stop us! This is our gift for the child! Aunt and Uncle have made lots of money. This is a gift for the baby! Do you like it? Aunt and Uncle will earn more money in the future. We’ll buy many, many more toys for Yue Yue, alright?” Xia He asked as she looked at Xia Yue..
