My newlywed husband is infertile, but I’m pregnant

Chapter 8 Fairies cannot have mouths

Early the next morning.

The Huo family's small villa.

The driver had been waiting at the door for a long time. When he saw Qiao Xi approaching, he opened the door respectfully.

Qiao Xi was about to get in the car when she saw a man leaning lazily inside. He was obviously calm and cool, but a red mole on his neck added a hint of abstinence.

Qiao Xi was surprised.

In the morning, she told Huo Xingzhou that she was going to a Chinese medicine store to buy medicinal materials, but she didn't expect him to be in the car.

"I'll accompany you there." The man said calmly.

Qiao Xi nodded reservedly.

As the car drove along, he flipped through his phone, while she looked out the car window, bored and distracted.

"Master, Madam. We've arrived. It's not easy to park in front of Wanrentang."

The driver parked the car in the parking lot at the end of the street.

Qiao Xi glanced at Huo Xingzhou's legs and said, "Mr. Huo, please wait for me in the car."

"Ah."

He just didn't trust her to come out alone.

Huo Xingzhou waited in the car and continued to scroll through his phone, while Qiao Xi walked towards the bustling street.

Wanrentang is the largest traditional Chinese medicine shop in Haicheng. Qiao Xi could see the dark crowd from a distance and it was extremely crowded.

She walked closer and listened for a few words. It turned out that Wanrentang's medicinal materials were of inferior quality, and the guests came to ask for explanations, causing a dispute.

"Our medicinal materials are all the best. If you can't provide evidence, don't slander me!" The pharmacist blushed and shouted loudly, "Who knows if you are blackmailing me!"

"Nonsense! I still have some prescriptions for medicine!"

"Compensate! You are making shady money! What will happen if you eat bad things!"

The pharmacist chased away the customers and said harshly: "Hurry up and stop acting up! It will do no good to offend our boss!"

As he said that, he closed the door, and the crowd suddenly became confused, pushing and shoving.

Just hear a scream!

"Someone fainted!"

"Call an ambulance! Is there a doctor?"

A pale young man was lying on the ground, breathing weakly and unconscious. Those passers-by didn't dare to touch him, for fear that he would die accidentally!

Seeing this, Qiao Xi quickly approached and shouted: "Please spread out, everyone, and pay attention to ventilation!"

She knelt down to check and found that the patient's limbs were cold, his eyes were sunken and his mouth was open. This was a simple syncope and deficiency syndrome. She took off the needle from her cuff and inserted it into Baihui, Shuigou and other acupoints to wake her up.

She has a calm expression and her fingers are particularly steady. An expert can see the skill in this needle.

"Little girl, can you do it or not? Human life is at stake. This is not just trying to be a hero..." As soon as the middle-aged man onlookers finished speaking, they saw the handsome and frail man slowly opening his eyes.

"Wake up, wake up."

"I really didn't expect that a little girl could be so powerful!"

When the eldest son of the Sun family woke up, he saw a girl with a delicate face and pure temperament leaning over to look at him, like a fairy. There was obsession in his eyes, and he was about to say thank you.

But the fairy said: "Your waist and knees are sore and weak, and your kidneys are not enough. It's better to go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination. Due to limited conditions, I only used acupuncture on you."

He almost passed away again in one breath.

After Qiao Xi finished speaking, she made sure that he was okay, took off the needle and left. Since there was something wrong with Wanrentang's medicinal materials, she should go to Fu'antang opposite to buy it.

"Young man, that girl said you have kidney deficiency. Listen to the elder brother's advice. That thing has a certain limit. The more you use it, the less effective it will be. Take care of yourself." The enthusiastic crowd shouted loudly.

He might as well die today.

"Mighty, my precious son!" Mrs. Sun, who was dressed in gold and silver, rushed over with her bag and wiped her tears, "I told you that these Chinese medicines should not be taken indiscriminately. Why don't you listen to my advice? You go to Wanrentang every day. Take the medicine and believe the lies of those charlatans!”

"Mom, don't call me by my name!" Sun Weimeng lay weakly on the ground and was about to cry. There was no one he cared about in this world.

The onlookers described the danger just now and the little doctor's instructions.

"Where is the savior? Our Sun family will pay a lot of money to express our gratitude!" Mrs. Sun asked.

"Now, she's across the street!"

Mrs. Sun, who loves her son as much as her life, looked around and saw a familiar face, and was stunned!

How could it be her!

Qiao Xike didn't know that someone recognized her, so she got into the car carrying a bunch of medicinal materials.

"So long?" The man put down his phone and looked at her and asked.

"Something unexpected happened."

A dark light flashed across Huo Xingzhou's eyes, and he said without pursuing it further: "I got a call from home. My sister and father are back home."

"Then should I prepare a meeting ceremony?"

"No, they have to prepare it for you."

When the two returned home, the sound of TV and voices rang out in the living room. As soon as Qiao Xi entered the door, she saw a pretty and lively girl running toward her, "Sister-in-law! I'm Jiaojiao."

"Hello."

Qiao Xi likes such a straightforward and simple girl.

"Qiao Xi, it's our first time meeting you. I didn't catch up with you when you got married." Huo Xingzhou's father, Huo Jiancheng, pressed a big red envelope into Qiao Xi's hand, "I don't know what you like, just be tacky."

Qiao Xi glanced at Huo Xingzhou, who motioned for her to accept it.

She pinched the thick red envelope and said, "Thank you."

"Sister-in-law, please don't be polite to my dad. He has a lot of private money."

Mrs. Huo Er glared at her, "How can you talk if you are big or small?"

Huo Sijiao said, "I am happy to see my sister-in-law. She is much better than that heartless woman. She ran away after the car accident. Fortunately, she is Xingyue..."

"Jiaojiao!"

Mrs. Huo Er interrupted her sharply, and Huo Sijiao shrank her shoulders and did not dare to say anything more. She also realized that it was not good to mention that woman in front of Qiao Xi.

Xingyue... Foundation?

Qiao Xi was confused and unsure, so she would ask Huo Xingzhou when she had the chance.

"Sir, Madam." Aunt Qian reported, "The old house called and said we would have a dinner tonight." The Huo family would set aside one day every month to hold a family banquet.

Du Juan frowned, a little unhappy: "What kind of family banquet is held at this time? It's obvious that the weasel is paying New Year's greetings to the chicken. It's not a good idea."

Upon seeing this, Huo Jiancheng comforted him: "Since you don't want to go, I'll make a phone call and tell you that we won't be going to the second room."

He picked up his cell phone and dialed Laozhai's number to explain the situation. But before the call was hung up, the whole family saw that his face became more and more serious.

"Is this news true?" Huo Jiancheng's voice was trembling.

After getting the answer, he hung up the phone absentmindedly.

"What happened?" Du Juan asked anxiously.

Huo Jiancheng glanced at his family and whispered a few words in her ear.

Du Juan was shocked: "Is this news true?"

"It's absolutely true, the old man has verified it."

"Go! Even if it's the Hongmen Banquet, I'll accept it. I absolutely can't let go of such a good opportunity." Du Juan said.

Huo Sijiao complained angrily: "Mom, what's the point of going to this family banquet? Their master must be trying to humiliate us, and I don't want to see Huo Beiting's proud face."

"We have to go because they found Cheng Han's apprentice and said he can cure this disease."

Huo Sijiao took a breath and felt happy.

"Brother's legs can be saved!"

Hearing this, Qiao Xi lowered her head and looked at Huo Xingzhou. He must trust Cheng Han's apprentice more than her, a nobody whose apprenticeship is unknown.

The light that shined through the floor-to-ceiling windows cast a thin layer of light on his chiseled face, but could not penetrate the deep depths of his eyes. There was no trace of joy on his face. Instead, he held her wrist and whispered.

"When you get to the old house, no matter what happens, stand behind me and don't talk."

Qiao Xi was stunned for a moment.

Something happened at the family dinner?
