Wang Xiamin walked over to Su Lizhen and sat down, saying calmly, "My husband just called and asked me to tell my wife to go find Lin Keping and recognize Chu Renmei as her daughter and change her name to Xian Renmei."

"What?" Su Lizhen said in disbelief, "I recognize Chu Renmei as my daughter?"

Wang Xiamin nodded slightly, "That's what the teacher said."

"why?"

"Sir, you want to marry your Indian partner. Your partner's sister will marry you, and your daughter will be engaged to your partner's son." Wang Xiamin said calmly, "Sir, you need a daughter."

Hearing this, Su Lizhen's mood eased a little. "Who is the Indian partner that needs to be taken so seriously?"

"The gentleman did not explain."

"Oh, where is Lin Keping?"

"I was working as a chorman at the public security guards, and I fell in love with a security guard. Good things are about to happen, and the second young lady has become a burden."

Su Lizhen laughed and said, "Amin, do you really need to change your words so quickly?"

Wang Xiamin did not respond, but said: "The master also said that two Arab girls will come to Hong Kong soon, one is called Camilla, she is three years old, and the other is called Aisha, she is eight years old.

The family will build two more buildings, Building 11 for the second daughter and Building 12 for Camilla. In the future, her husband will change her name to Camilla Ben Aliyah Hepburn, and Aisha will live with Camilla. "

"Hepburn? Sir, do you want to adopt Camilla as your goddaughter?"

"I guess so. The Xian family will marry into other families in the future."

Su Lizhen was silent for a moment, and asked again: "What does Aria mean?"

"It was a gift from Camilla's mother and a partner to you, and you plan to keep it for yourself."

Su Lizhen nodded gently, "I understand. I will go to see Lin Keping this afternoon."

"Ma'am, I'm leaving first. I rented a house on Tokyo Street as a dormitory for the Min Song Troupe. I need to go over and take a look."

"Ah."

When Wang Xiamin was about to leave the living room, Su Lizhen called her again, "Chu, is Chu Tianlan dead?"

"Ma'am, you shouldn't ask this question. He fell and died last night."

Su Lizhen gave a bitter smile, "Did you expect me to ask?"

Wang Xiamin nodded.

With another bitter smile, Su Lizhen asked, "Is there anyone collecting the bodies?"

"The gentleman said, since he asked, just do whatever you want to do." Wang Xiamin paused, then continued, "When he comes back, he will spank your big ass."

Su Lizhen said shyly, "I ask you to tell me everything, sir."

Wang Xiamin did not reply and left quietly.

Su Lizhen sighed. A night of marriage is like a hundred days of love. After all, they were once husband and wife. She couldn't ignore Chu Tianlan's funeral.

As for falling and dying, the gentleman said yes, and that was him.

Once a woman is determined, it is impossible for a man to please her. Especially in today's era, women usually have several children, and the infant mortality rate is very high. If a woman has too much affection for her underage children, she will only drive herself crazy.

Chu Renmei was still an infant, and Lin Keping was about to start a new life. Su Lizhen's recognition of her daughter did not cause any trouble, and she gave Lin Keping a red envelope of one thousand yuan. Chu Renmei went to the Xian family and changed her name to Xian Renmei.

Su Lizhen became busy. She had to prepare a room for Xian Renmei and look for a wet nurse. Xian Renmei was not yet weaned, so she had to find someone's wife to borrow milk for a few days so that there would be time for the wet nurse to improve her diet and increase the quality of her milk.

She is Su Lizhen's daughter, the second young lady of the Xian family. She cannot just be raised, she needs to be taken care of carefully, as she may have to rely on her daughter when she is old.

At dinner time, Su Lizhen announced Xian Renmei's arrival in the dining room. Wang Xiamin chimed in and established that Xian Renmei was Su Lizhen's "biological daughter", and no one should mention the issue of "biological parents".

In this way, everyone in the Xian family was informed, except that Zhou Ruoyun was not there.

At this moment, Zhou Ruoyun was in the hospital. At 4:30 in the afternoon, she suddenly felt her stomach was very heavy and walking became quite difficult. This was because at 4:25, she heard "Mrs. Xian, congratulations" in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department. She was pregnant.

Upon hearing the news, the sick Zhou Maochen became full of energy. The people who were originally taking care of him switched to taking care of Zhou Ruoyun. She had no choice but to respond, and in an instant she became Lin Daiyu.

Zhou Ruoyun sat at the dining table, which was filled with delicious food suitable for pregnant women. Zhou Maochen, wearing a hospital gown, sat opposite her, using a serving chopstick in one hand and a spoon in the other to pick up this and scoop that for Zhou Ruoyun.

Zhou Ruoyun refused several times, and Zhou Maochen put down his things in a huff, and took out a deposit slip from the pocket of his hospital gown, "Ayun, there is two million on it, which is what Dad prepared for his grandson. I originally planned to give it to you after I passed away, but I'd better give it to you earlier now, take it."

Zhou Ruoyun took a look at the deposit slip and said, "Dad, you've given me enough. Let's leave it to my eldest and second brothers."

"Here." Zhou Maochen stuffed the deposit slip directly into Zhou Ruoyun's palm. "I've given enough to your elder brother and second brother. As for you, Dad doesn't know how many children you will have in the future. Dad can't take care of so many. I can only take care of this one in front of me."

"Dad..." Zhou Ruoyun choked.

Zhou Maochen waved his hand, "Okay, don't cry. There is an old saying that there is no filial son beside a long-term sick bed. Dad has been in the hospital for so long. You are already a married daughter, and you can still come to accompany Dad every day. Dad is content."

As he spoke, he patted the back of Zhou Ruoyun's hand and said, "Put it away, put it away."

"Ah."

Zhou Ruoyun nodded with sobs, and spread out the deposit certificate, preparing to smooth it out and put it away, but she saw at a glance that the date on the deposit certificate was the day before yesterday, which was the day when her body reacted and she suspected that she was pregnant. In other words, the deposit certificate was issued "after she knew she was going to have a grandson."

The smart girl immediately realized that the savings certificate was not prepared for her, her daughter, but for her grandson, the eldest son of the eldest house of the Xian family, and the next generation head of the Xian family.

She felt bad and thought with evil humor, "What if I'm pregnant with a daughter?"

Suddenly, she realized that her father was running out of time, so she had to take a gamble.

She stood up choking with sobs, walked to Zhou Maochen, threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.

It is said that father and daughter are connected by heart. The cunning Zhou Maochen could easily outline the psychological changes of his daughter in his mind. He patted Zhou Ruoyun on the back and said lovingly: "Don't cry, Dad is glad that he didn't make a mistake. Yaowen is a good husband. You should be more tolerant in the future and don't be arrogant because of your favor."

"Hmm, wuwuwu..."

While the father and daughter were pouring their hearts out, Zhou Xiaoyun came to the hospital. He looked inside through the observation hole on the door and saw this scene. Instead of pushing the door open, he went to the balcony in the corner of the corridor and lit a cigarette.

He was a little annoyed. His plan to monopolize rice and noodles in Hong Kong encountered some trouble. The People's Supermarket on Pedder Street in Central was eroding the high-end rice and noodle market. The Haoxili Agricultural Products led by Lu Yansu was encroaching on the bulk rice purchasing business of the Rice Shop. Rice was shipped in from the mainland in an endless stream.

There is no need to guess who Lu Yansu is. People's Supermarket is Xian Yaowen's business. This is easy to guess. He wants to talk to Xian Yaowen.

In the alley behind a restaurant in Mong Kok, Cai Jinman, who had rushed in after dinner, was wrapping glutinous rice chicken. She was holding a plate in her hand and using a pair of clean chopsticks to scrape the leftovers to make sure there was no phlegm or cigarette ash in the dish. She poured the leftovers into a large basin and picked up another plate to scrape them carefully.

Wrapping leftovers into glutinous rice chicken and selling them is a way of extra income for restaurants in Hong Kong nowadays. Almost everyone does this, but not many people who do this job are as careful as Cai Jinman. It would be good if you could be a little lazy. Who would sympathize with people of the same class after having a full stomach?

Happiness comes from comparison. If there are people who are more miserable than you, you will suddenly appear happy.

At the back door of the restaurant, the fat proprietress of the restaurant looked at Cai Jinman wasting food like this, her heart felt like it was being stabbed by needles. It was all money. Oh my God, when would this girl be able to leave?

However, the fat proprietress felt bad for a while, but then her mood became better again. This girl didn't want any wages, and the losses could be made up.

Cai Jinman, who was quick-witted, was thinking in his mind that he had already understood the kitchen business pretty well. In a few days, he should find a restaurant to get familiar with the accounting work, and then he should think carefully about where to open his own restaurant.

After dinner, Wang Xiamin crossed the sea to Huinongtai and delivered a box of toys sent from the United States to the eldest daughter Xian Qianzhi, and then followed Liu Wanqing into Xian Yaowen's study.

"Madam, the gentleman asked you to compile a list of the high-ranking officials of the government in Hong Kong, and only count those with rich family backgrounds. He wants to carry out a big plan and needs to raise funds from the high-ranking officials."

"Are you in a hurry?"

"It's a bit urgent. The gentleman said he wants to see the list in two days."

"Okay, I'll get started tomorrow." Liu Wanqing poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of Wang Xiamin. "How is Fuxing Bank? Are you sure there is a problem?"

Wang Xiamin picked up the teacup and said, "It is basically confirmed that there is a problem. I have also reported it to the gentleman. The gentleman instructed that 30% of the profits go to the lady personally, and 60% go into the public account."

Even without Wang Xiamin saying anything, Liu Wanqing could guess that the remaining 10% was for the expenses of the people who did the work and the people who supported them. "Is it moving?"

"We have already sent people to monitor Yuan Dequan, to find out if there are any more people behind him, and to track down where the funds are going. Based on the information we have obtained so far, the funds should be going to Brazil. Perhaps Yuan Dequan will also flee to Brazil in the future."

"Liu Jianxu is involved?"

"It's hard to say at the moment." Wang Xiamin took a sip of tea and said, "Madam, I still have to go to Qionghua Restaurant. I'll take my leave first."

"I send you."

It’s still Huinong Terrace.

Lu Yansu visits Eileen Chang to fulfill her part-time job obligations.

A new desk was placed where the old desk whose legs were broken by Xian Yaowen was originally placed. Zhang Ailing was sitting on it, and Lu Yansu was sitting at the corner opposite her, with a large box at her feet.

Lu Yansu bent down to open the box, pointed at the clearly separated paper boxes inside and said, "This box is Marais Brothers' black tea. Mr. Xian knows that you like to drink black tea, so he asked someone to buy the best one.

This box contains paintings by several painters who studied in France, including a painting by Picasso. Your mother prepared it for you to keep in the bottom of your box. It should appreciate in value in a few years.

This box contains custom-made clothes in Paris, sewn by the best tailors in Paris. Half of them are custom-made by Mr. Xian according to your design drawings, and the other half are styles that Mr. Xian thinks you will like.

The last box is French pastries, which I prepared for you. Half of them were bought at the office in Hong Kong, and most of the other half came from Saigon, Vietnam, with only a small part from Paris.

After listening to Lu Yansu's story, Zhang Ailing said in a cold tone: "Miss Lu, thank you for your help."

Zhang Ailing's tone made Lu Yansu a little unhappy, but she did not get angry. She said calmly, "Miss Zhang, the things have been delivered. I'll take my leave first."

"Goodbye, I won't see you off." Zhang Ailing's tone was still cold.

Lu Yansu came downstairs with anger in his heart, kicked the car tire twice, and spat: "Ugly people are often weird. Xian Yaowen was born in the year of the pig, so he is really not picky about food."

Zhang Ailing upstairs happily opened the box of snacks, picked out her favorite ones and put them into her mouth, then opened the box of clothes, picked up a piece of clothing, and placed it in front of her chest to gesture.

3 month 13 day.

After many days of travel, Xian Yaowen arrived in Paris and had a hot meal prepared by Fei Baoshu.

The journey was not hard. One of the flights had a box seat. A cowboy named Dick, with dreadlocks swinging, was heartbroken at 30,000 feet below the clouds. He was making love at thousands of feet above the clouds. He had nothing to do anyway, so he did a good deed every day and brought some color to a woman who was trapped in the shadow of divorce.

The stewed cauliflower and broccoli were put into Camilla's plate. Camilla used her 18 little baby teeth to nibble greedily, but she always held the fork in her hand and did not eat with her hands.

Aisha sat opposite Camilla and ate her food in a slightly more elegant manner, but she ate cautiously and fearfully.

On the flight to Australia, Xian Yaowen discovered that she had fecal incontinence. When they landed in Australia, he took the little girl to the hospital to see a female doctor for a full-body examination. The result was self-evident.

Physical injuries are nothing and can be recovered quickly, but the psychological damage is a big problem. Perhaps the little girl will need a lifetime to comfort her childhood.

Xian Yaowen scooped some pea and beef brisket soup into Aisha's plate, and scooped some into his own plate, and showed her how to eat it with a warm smile. Although the little girl was nervous, she was infected by his smile and followed his example, eating the peas mouthful by mouthful, but she disdained the beef brisket.

Fei Baoshu, who was sitting next to him, handed Xian Yaowen a plate with a soup bowl on it, and then handed him a thick white cloth.

Xian Yaowen glanced into the soup bowl and waved his hand to refuse to take the white cloth. "Don't try to cover your ears like the French. How much is a bunting?"

"I don't know. The tenant upstairs gave it to me."

"Oh." Xian Yaowen poked the bunting in the soup bowl with a fork, "You didn't learn the essence. The bunting must be suffocated in brandy, not bled."

"I tried it, it doesn't taste good without bleeding." Fei Baoshu retorted: "It tastes better after bleeding."

"Oh." Xian Yaowen handed the plate to Aisha, taught her how to eat it, and then said to Fei Baoshu, "Can you make hot baked Caracas?"

"I can, but there's no ice cream at home."

"Buy some tomorrow. It's better to buy Gelato, the Italian-style ice cream. The two little girls will like it."

Fei Baoshu nodded gently, "Will the two of them return to Hong Kong with me?"

"Well, I've arranged it." Xian Yaowen picked up a tomato on the table and took a bite. "The Dutch pink tomato is the best tomato I've ever eaten."

“These are Provencal tomatoes.”

"Yes, I know. I mean its variety, not its origin." Xian Yaowen put down the tomatoes, wiped his hands, and said, "Take some seeds back and try to plant a few in the garden to see how much the taste differs."

"When I return to Hong Kong, will I start my retirement...semi-retirement life?" Fei Baoshu said with a lost look.

"You said it's too early to retire. On your way back, you can transfer in Singapore to visit your parents-in-law who are a few years younger than you." Xian Yaowen laughed.

Fei Baoshu blushed and said, "I'm embarrassed to see them."

Xian Yaowen patted the back of her hand and consoled her: "I was just kidding you, don't worry, we'll have a chance to meet each other later. Where are Shucheng and Shuying?"

"Shucheng went to a cocktail party, and Shuying went to Dunkirk to discuss a patent for prebaked aluminum or something. I didn't understand it either."

"Prebaked aluminum electrolytic cells?"

"seems like it."

Xian Yaowen stroked his chin, "Shuying is playing a bit wild. The patent for the aluminum smelting industry is useless. The initial project is a large-scale state-led project, and the patent cannot be obtained. Do you have the hotel's phone number?"

"No phone number."

"Forget it, let her do whatever she wants."

At this moment, the French chef hired by Fei Baoshu brought a plate of chilled scallop caviar. Xian Yaowen thanked the chef and smiled at Fei Baoshu, "The appetizer is served at this time. Is it another of your innovations?"

"Seafood is too cold, it's not good to eat on an empty stomach." Fei Baoshu said as he handed Xian Yaowen an ivory spoon. "I bought it at the Saint-Ouen market. Two complete sets of ivory tableware only cost 20,000 francs."

"Twenty thousand?" The price was so cheap that Xian Yaowen was surprised. He looked at the spoon in his hand and asked, "Are you sure this is made of real ivory?"

"I'm sure." Fei Baoshu said excitedly, "I've seen a lot of good things before, so I have a good eye for identifying some antiques."

Xian Yaowen believed what he said. Old Sun was an antique collector. Fei Baoshu had been influenced by him for more than ten years. Even if she did not master the professional knowledge, her eyesight had been trained. If she looked at or touched something that was not right, it was most likely fake.

"I believe in your vision." Xian Yaowen nodded, "Speaking of antiques, I do have some ideas."

"what idea?"

Xian Yaowen scooped some caviar into his mouth with an ivory spoon, tasted it carefully, and put the spoon down. "Your sister is not working in Taiwan, right?"

Fei Baoshu shook his head slightly. "My sister didn't mention working in the letter she wrote to me. She only mentioned learning painting from Mr. Pu Ru."

"Oh? She is Pu Ru's disciple?"

"I don't think so. It seems that Mr. Pu Ru opened a class in his own house to supplement his family income."

"That means you are not doing anything. In the past two years, except for the soldiers, everyone who went to Taiwan had some assets, such as antique vases, calligraphy and paintings, and expensive jewelry.

The ways to make money in Taiwan are basically controlled by people from this province. If you are from Fujian, it is not so easy, as it is easy to integrate, but it is not so easy for people from other places. The language and living habits are different, so it is difficult to communicate. "

Xian Yaowen paused and continued, "The cost of living in Taiwan is not low. If we continue to live a luxurious life as before, our capital will soon run out..."

Fei Baoshu replied, "I understand. It's been almost two years. Many people have almost spent all their money. It's time for sellers to be in trouble. Going to Taiwan to buy antiques now can get good goods at a low price."

"Yes." Xian Yaowen nodded, "The good stuff we collected will be put away for future processing, and the not-so-good stuff will be taken back to Hong Kong for sale, and the profit from the price difference will be used as the capital for continuing to collect goods.

At this time, the saying "a scholar is good for nothing" is proven true. It is difficult for a learned scholar to fill his stomach. It is not difficult to ask your sister to hire a few gentlemen who are proficient in antiques.

Hire someone, rent a house as an office, install a telephone, hire a person with wide connections and active network as a manager, go out and hand out business cards, get to know more people, and customers with needs will naturally call you, and both parties will complete the transaction quietly and privately, and the customer can still maintain his dignity. "

Fei Baoshu smiled and said, "Someone was doing this business during the Shanghai Isolated Island period. How did you know about this, sir?"

Xian Yaowen smiled faintly and said, "It's great that you've seen it. Taking advantage of others' misfortunes is not a new business method. Since ancient times, people have made fortunes by taking advantage of natural disasters and man-made disasters. If you are interested in doing this business, I will give you the start-up capital, and you can do me a favor by the way."

"What's the deal?"

"A few years ago, Shanghai securities companies sold a lot of American stocks. Did you know about this?"

Fei Baoshu nodded, "Yes, I have two Caterpillar stocks, with a par value of $25."

Xian Yaowen thought for a moment and asked, "1925?"

"correct."

"Then you are lucky. Caterpillar has paid dividends to shareholders every quarter since 1933. How much money have you received over the years?"

Fei Baoshu said blankly: "Is there any money to share? I don't know, I have never received any money."

“Maybe your information wasn’t registered. Are the stocks still there?”

"Here I am."

"What I want you to help me with is the stock issue. Most of the American stocks sold in Shanghai were high-quality stocks. Many companies pay dividends to shareholders every year, but some people are similar to you and have never received dividends.

If we buy stocks at face value, there must be many people willing to sell. We get stocks, firstly, we can earn dividends, and secondly, more than ten or twenty years have passed, and the stock prices have basically increased, and some have even increased dozens of times.

If you receive $1 in stock, you will make at least ten times more profit, which is faster than collecting antiques."

Fei Baoshu hesitated and said, "Is it okay to take advantage of someone's misfortune?"

Xian Yaowen forked a piece of milk-roasted flounder into his mouth, chewing and saying, "Xiao Qian started to study at the age of five, kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, university, and went to study in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States at the age of 24. After more than 20 years of hard study, he finally found a job building rockets at the age of 30, and the total salary added up to more than 4,000 US dollars a month.

Old Yang started working in the fields at the age of three, picking wheat ears, pulling seedlings, harvesting, transplanting rice, and carrying loads. At the age of seventeen, he borrowed a decent set of clothes from others and went to the next village for a blind date. He fell in love with Huang Shiren, and asked him to borrow five dollars. He got married and had a daughter. He worked in the fields year after year, but he could not pay off Huang Shiren's debt. He owed more and more, and when he got old, he had to sell his daughter to pay off the debt.

Looking at the situations of these two people, do you think it is fair?"

"There's nothing unfair about it. Xiao Qian can be where he is today because his parents spent a lot of money and effort to cultivate him." Fei Baoshu shook his head.

Xian Yaowen nodded, "Since you admit that this phenomenon is fair, let me tell you, business is made up of taking advantage of others' misfortunes time and time again.

I opened a shirt factory and hired female workers to make shirts. I was taking advantage of the fact that they didn't understand how much labor value they created. I made money from the excess price of their labor value.

No one in business would tell the seller how much they can earn from the resale, nor would they tell the buyer, "Hey, I'm taking advantage of you. I'm selling you a stone I picked up from the toilet for 20,000..."

Fei Baoshu burst into laughter when he heard this, and his laughter interrupted Xian Yaowen's words.

When Fei Baoshu had finished laughing, Xian Yaowen continued, "You bought a painting by Tang Bohu from someone, and told him that the price of the painting would increase several thousand times when it reaches his grandchildren. He shook his head and told you that he sold the painting to raise money to marry a wife. If he can't marry a wife, how can he have grandchildren?

Baoshu, people cannot earn money beyond their knowledge, nor can they earn money beyond their abilities.

Tomorrow will be spring and flowers will bloom, but tonight I still need a tattered quilt to keep warm. If I can’t get through tonight, no matter how beautiful tomorrow is, it will be like a flower in the water or the moon in the mirror, which is out of reach.”

Xian Yaowen scooped a spoonful of French egg from the cup with a spoon, "Some people have assumed that if a hen is in the most ideal state, through laying eggs and hatching chickens, it can turn from one chicken into tens of billions in three years.

Excluding some costs in the process, it would be reasonable for a hen's egg to be sold for tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars. Rice, noodles, vegetables and fruits are not much cheaper either.

The same is true for marriage. If we trace back to the past, most people with the same surname have a common ancestor. So if we calculate this way, if we want to marry a daughter-in-law, a French bride price is far from enough. We need to at least get some from Germany and Belgium. "

"You are just making excuses..." Fei Baoshu stopped talking abruptly, and she realized the truth.

After thinking for a moment, she said, "Isn't that taking advantage of someone's misfortune?"

Xian Yaowen nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, of course it is. It is taking advantage of someone's misfortune. If ordinary businessmen are equal to liars, then antique dealers are unforgivable bandits. All kinds of dirty tricks can be seen in the antique business.

To do antique business, you must first put aside your morals. People with morals will have a hard time in the antique business..."

Xian Yaowen waved his hand and said, "Forget it, this business is not suitable for you. When I go to Taiwan, I will talk to my elder sister myself. You should stay out of this business."

"If you don't let me do it, who are you going to let do it?"

"Li Zhen, I heard from Amin that she brought a lot of paintings back to Hong Kong from Shanghai. They are all works of famous artists. If nothing unexpected happens, they will appreciate in value in the future. She is more suitable for the antique business. I just don't know if she can handle it."

In fact, Su Lizhen is the most suitable person to do antique business in Taiwan. She has been running the Jinda Pawnshop for some time and has hidden a lot of good things in her hands. She also has the awareness of hoarding and selling at a high price.

However, as I said before, he looked down on the antique business and never spent any time thinking about it. The inspiration for Taiwan's antique business was purely inspired by Fei Baoshu just now, which also made him think of stocks.

Therefore, he still hopes that Fei Baoshu will do this business. First, he wants her to make some private money, closing the cause and effect loop; second, he wants her to have some heirlooms to pass on to the children with the surname Sun, so that her grandchildren and great-grandchildren will remember her kindness in the future.

Fei Baoshu said with a savory tone: "Then you can let her do it."

Xian Yaowen glanced at Fei Baoshu and said, "You are in your early forties, but you still act like a girl under 18. You can do the antique business or not. If you don't want to do it, just ignore what I said. You have to help me arrange the stock purchase."

Fei Baoshu pouted and said, "How do we arrange it?"

"Go back to Hong Kong to rest for a few days, then fly to Taipei and ask your brother-in-law to help you buy a Japanese-style house left by a foreigner. Pick a good one, a big one, with at least six rooms and a yard.

After buying it, clean it up and buy what you need. If you have fun there, you don’t have to go back to Hong Kong. Shucheng, Shuying and I will meet you there later.”

Fei Baoshu nodded, "How long do you plan to stay in Taiwan?"

"It's hard to say now, we'll know in a few days."

As he spoke, Xian Yaowen turned to look at Camilla, and seeing that she was still eating with relish, he reached out and touched her belly, feeling the slight bulge. He took the fork from her hand, picked her up and placed her on his lap, wiped her lips with a napkin, and then put her on the ground.

As soon as he loosened his hand, the little girl trotted over to the sofa with her short legs, where her favorite little toy was.

"Camilla is very good."

"Yeah, she's very easy to take care of. She didn't cry or make a fuss on the plane." Xian Yaowen followed Camilla's gaze for a while, then retracted his gaze to Fei Baoshu. "The little girl's father probably didn't take care of her much, so he doesn't have a deep memory of her. I plan to raise her as my own."

"How many biological children will you have in the future? Will you be able to handle the pain?"

Fei Baoshu felt a little melancholy. She felt that she could still give birth, but her husband had already given her some knowledge about elderly mothers, saying that it was too risky for her to give birth at her age, and it would be bad for both her and the baby, so she had no choice but to give up.

Besides, she had already lost a child, and she didn't want to experience that kind of pain a second time.

"You can never have too many daughters."

"Marriage?"

"That's for when the child grows up." (End of this chapter)
