1069 Do Not Talk While Eating

However, this made Tan Jing feel that Xia Guang was looking down on her. She recalled that Xia Guang’s reaction was not so subdued when he met Qiao Mei yesterday. He even helped Qiao Mei take food from the dishes that she could not reach. Tan Jing had witnessed all this for herself.

Seeing that she was not needed in the kitchen, Tan Jing sat down in a corner of the courtyard.

This was such a big courtyard. There was more than enough s.p.a.ce for the children to run around and play in the future. During the time when Qiao Mei was renovating the house, she had even thought about building a car porch. However, if she sacrificed two rooms to build a car porch, it would make the entire house look much more cramped and the value of the house would depreciate greatly.

The house opposite hers had a layout that was similar to Li Gui’s house. It also had six rooms and was half the size of the front yard part of her courtyard house. Qiao Mei had long set her sights on the house opposite, but she did not know if the neighbors had any intention to sell it.

However, all this could wait. She was not in a hurry. Driving was a tiring ch.o.r.e and it was better to hire a chauffeur. In her other life, she was a “road menace” and she was always very cautious and scared when she drove.

“If only my children can live in such a house in the future…” Tan Jing muttered to herself.

It was a rare thing for Xia He to get up early. It took her more than 10 minutes to get out of Qiao Mei’s bed, worried that she would b.u.mp into Qiao Mei or make a sound and wake her up.

Perhaps Qiao Mei had been feeling better mentally and physically recently, so she had slept well these past few days. She did not have to make multiple trips to the toilet every night like before. Although she still needed to wake up to go to the toilet, it was much less frequent.

As usual, Xia He got dressed and started to do her leg presses in the courtyard. Qiao Mei knew that Xia He must do her morning exercise every day, so she specially installed a dance barre in the courtyard. In any case, Zhang Miao would also be practicing dancing at home in the future, so the barre would not go to waste.

Qiao Mei even had plans to ask Xia He to teach her daughter in the future! It was not that she wanted the child to be a good dancer, but she just wanted to improve the child’s temperament. Dancers all looked very radiant and had very good postures. If not for the fact that Qiao Mei was stunningly beautiful and overshadowed Xia He’s radiance, Xia He would have been the most good-looking girl in the vicinity.

Slowly, everyone woke up one after another. By now, the helper had gotten breakfast for everyone.

“Where’s Qiao Mei?” Xia Fang asked as she looked at Xia He.

“Let’s eat. Don’t worry about Qiao Mei. She doesn’t sleep very well at night nowadays, so she can’t manage to get up in the morning. Usually, she only has two meals a day. Sometimes, she doesn’t even get up for lunch. We always keep some food in the kitchen so that she always has something to eat. At times, she can’t fall asleep the entire night,” Xia He explained.

“So serious? Is she sick? Should we bring her to the hospital for a checkup? Xiao Fang, do you know about Qiao Mei’s current condition?” Xia Xiu asked as she looked at Xia Fang nervously. She had never been married and never had children, so she naturally did not know anything about pregnancy.

Xia Fang smiled and said, “It’s fine. Some time ago, Qiao Mei had already done a full-body checkup. The indicators are all good and we’re just waiting for her to give birth. It’s normal for her to feel like this now. Moreover, she’s having twins, so her stomach is bigger than other pregnant women. It’s inevitable that this will happen during the late stages of her pregnancy and it’s not a big deal. I think she eats well and sleeps enough, it’s just that she doesn’t get restful sleep.”

After Xia Fang’s explanation, all of them felt more at ease. Everyone at the table was very quiet as they ate. This might have something to do with their profession. Soldiers ate very quickly. In addition, the military rules prohibited them from chatting and whispering to each other while eating. They were so used to it that they brought this habit back to their own homes.

Although Xu Lan and Xia He were only part of the military art troupe, they had also gone through military training. Even though the training duration was only one month, it had a huge impact on them and they also got used to such habits. As for Liu Fen and Xia Fang, although they were not in military service and had never lived in an army unit before, their husbands and sons were from the army, so they were familiar with such things.

However, it was different for Tan Jing. She had only married into the family after Xia Wen retired from the army. They did not have so many rules in their own home and Xia Wen was also not that rigid a person. Even though she was well aware of the Xia family’s rules, she still could not get used to it. Unless it was absolutely necessary, she rarely ate with the family elders. She felt very uncomfortable to have to eat under such an oppressive dining environment.
