Chapter 506 - Scarcity of water (1/2)

On the other side, in Zeng Shihong's mansion, it was getting impossible to control a certain old man who was sharing his happiness with every person of the house. Be it a servant, a guard, chef, assistant, or even an ant walking by.

”Hey, I'm going to become a great grandfather. Do you know what does that means? My munchkin is going to give me another munchkin….. Give a year bonus to everyone working in this mansion. Distribute clothes, sweets, and money in orphanages, and old age homes…. Tell them I'm going to become a great grandfather.” He looked at Lu Xion who was giving some instruction to Wu Zixin.

”This is the tenth time you are saying that to me. Control yourself! This much excitement is not good for you.” Lu Xion said as a matter of fact. ”Grandpa I'm telling you, you better stop jumping otherwise I won't take you to see my little tomato.”

”Hmpf… Bully! Who cares about you?” Zeng Shihong narrowed his eyes at Wu Shen, ”Bring my private plane; I'm leaving for Country T. I'm sure that old geezer Mo Weimin must be dotting on my munchkin. I will bring her back! She is only mine!”

Lu Xion ”…”

When Xiu Mei gets down from the car she was dumbstruck seeing the Mo family instructing servants….

Mo Weimin: ”Ah… what if my granddaughter trips over these potted plants? Take them away.”

Leng Shuang looked at the tall trees with her hawk-like eyes, ”I need only fresh fruits. Pick that one, and that… make sure you wash them three times before serving her.”

(I've changed Liu Shuang's name to Leng Shuang to avoid confusion as Jianyu's mother's surname is also Liu.)

Zeng Ruo: ”Turn off the water sprinklers, make sure the garden and courtyard is dry. Don't use any pesticides on the plants and remove the ones that may cause allergies.”

Mo Zhichan: ”Why are there pebbles on this path? Remove them? It's dangerous! Put extra cushions on the patio, appoint servants in every corner…..”

On the other side, few of her cousins were nitpicking servants for the tiniest of mistakes. When they saw Xiu Mei coming towards them instead of dashing towards her, they hurriedly made a small group and pulled out a banner….

Soon all the members of the family came outside after getting the message.

Slowly the banner was pulled….

[Thank you for the promotion. We all love you.]

Xiu Mei looked at Feng Jianyu. ”They already know…. What crazy family I have!” She expected a happy reaction, but it was way beyond her imagination. Saying they exaggerated it would be a small statement.

Feng Jianyu pressed his lips into a thin line. ”Can I take you somewhere into hiding? I'm afraid they are going to steal you from me. Naah! I'm sure they will try to cling on to us until our baby is born. You better don't give in to their demands, otherwise, I'll kidnap you.”

Xiu Mei chuckled, ”Actually there's another point you should be angry about.”

”What?”

”Everyone has ignored the fact that it was you who did everything.” She pointed at the family, ”Look, they are doing everything for me and have literally sidelined you as if you were just a sperm donor.” Suddenly she paused, pondered touching her chin. ”Speaking of sperms, your tadpoles were very slow. It took you months to impregnate me, and here I used to internally brag about your extraordinary size and strength.”

Feng Jianyu ”….”

”Hey, she is here.” Leng Shuang walked to Xiu Mei and kissed her forehead. ”Qinqin, my child…Thank you for the lovely gift.”

Mo Luan Xiaze's wife Jiang Yinren sprinted and holds her arm. ”Don't keep standing, come in, be careful….”

”This is crazy?” said Xiu Mei helplessly.

”Sister-in-law this is nothing, you just wait and watch. When I was pregnant with iron… I mean my first child, the family literally padded everything in the mansion, even the walls and furniture and every time a family member used to be there at my beck and call. Poor me, they feed me like a cow, by the time of delivery I weighed over 75kgs.” Jiang Yinren wiped her non-existent sweat. ”It took me two years to shed the weight.”

Xiu Mei's gave a horrified look to everyone, ”What are they going to do with me? I've two more families to handle in Imperial City. And above that, a protective monster is there to join them. I'm certainly going to look like a baby elephant.”
