1209 Sleep

It was obvious that Xia Wen had prepared these things quite some time ago as the boxes did not look new. Even though he still owed He Ning 500,000 dollars then, he remembered to buy gifts for the two children. It was enough to show how much Xia Wen cherished these two children.

Unfortunately… Xia Wen did not have a child of his own after so many years… Otherwise, he would definitely be a very good father.

“Alright everyone, don’t just stand here. Go and take a rest!” Xu Lan said.

The two children had completely different personalities. One look at Xia Fan and one could tell that he was an obedient child. He ate and slept well and did not cry or make a fuss. He just liked to stare at people with his big round eyes and he smiled at everyone.

Xia Xing was completely different. Although she did not cry much, it was very difficult to get her to fall asleep. No matter how hard anyone tried to coax her, she refused to sleep and would only fall asleep slowly in Feng Hua’s arms. Once she was put down onto the small bed, she would wake up, so Feng Hua had to carry her while she slept. These few days, Feng Hua’s arms hurt so much that she could not even lift them anymore.

Qiao Mei only just heard about this today. She immediately went upstairs to check on Feng Hua. As soon as she pushed the door open, she saw Feng Hua sitting in the corner with a tired expression and holding the sleeping Xia Xing in her arms.

“Sister Feng, is the child still unwilling to sleep on the bed?” Qiao Mei asked with a frown.

Feng Hua thought that Qiao Mei was blaming her, so she quickly stood up and said nervously, “Yes, but the child sleeps soundly in my arms. I’m not tired at all. It’s fine. It’ll get better when she grows up. Perhaps she’s still young and needs someone to take care of her.”

Qiao Mei called Xia Zhe over and asked him to carry Xia Fan out to Xu Lan’s room. They would only keep Xia Xing in their room.

“Sister Feng, put her on the small bed. She has to get used to it. How can she want someone to hug her to sleep all the time? We can’t spoil the child like this,” Qiao Mei said.

Feng Hua followed Qiao Mei’s instructions and put the baby down properly. As expected, Xia Xing started wailing as soon as she touched the bed. Feng Hua’s heart ached and she wanted to lift the baby up, but when she saw Qiao Mei’s stern expression, she gritted her teeth and endured it.

“Sister Feng, let her cry. She just needs to know that crying is useless. This is something she must go through,” Qiao Mei said.

“But what if she keeps crying?” Feng Hua probed.

This was also Qiao Mei’s first time having children. She did not know if the baby would continue to cry non-stop, but if that happened, she would think of a way to make a cus.h.i.+on that would let Xia Xing feel like she was lying in someone’s arms.

“It’ll get better. If it really doesn’t work out, I’ll ask my mother to come over to take a look. She should know how to solve this problem. No matter what, we definitely can’t keep carrying the child anymore. If this continues, no matter how many of us there are, there won’t be enough arms to go around. We can’t let the child develop such a habit,” Qiao Mei said.

Just as Qiao Mei had said, Xia Xing stopped crying not long after. However, it was possible that she was simply tired out from crying. She slept soundly on the small bed and looked very cute.

Feng Hua could finally rest for a while. Qiao Mei told her to hire two more helpers. One of them would take over Wei Hao’s position and the other would work at Xu Lan’s house.

The news of Qiao Mei reaching home spread very quickly and the phone downstairs did not stop ringing. Many families wanted to come and congratulate her. Qiao Mei and Xia Zhe discussed this matter and decided not to hold a one-month-old celebration event for their children. They would just invite only close relatives for a gathering and this would not include any of their friends.

Firstly, the children were still young and it would be inconvenient to have so many people coming to the house. Secondly, these people would definitely rush and crowd around to take a look at the children and then at Qiao Mei. She did not mind it for herself, but it would be taxing on the children.

It was enough to just acc.u.mulate good fortune for the two children! They were grateful that everyone cared about the children. Xia Zhe had already taken note of which families had sent gifts to the house.

“I wonder if Second Uncle and Third Uncle can come back. Second Aunt-in-law, has Second Uncle mentioned anything recently?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

“Your second uncle always behaves very mysteriously! I don’t know what he does whenever he goes back to the army. He only tells me that he’s going back to work and I don’t ask anything. This time round, I also don’t know when he’ll be back. I think you can ask Eldest Brother. He should know where his brothers are,” Liu Fen said.

Of course Qiao Mei knew that she could ask Xia Mao, but she was still afraid of him! Even though Xia Mao was very nice to her, the authoritative look on his face made her afraid to look at him. She decided to get Xia Zhe to ask him.
