I Got Rich in Period Fiction-Chapter 624 - 598: Accident

Her own grandfather really trusted her, but she began to doubt her own life. Did she really have such great capabilities? Was she capable of managing both the Agricultural Group and Wulong Group with one hand each?

Oh, my goodness!

Qiao Qingyu covered her face with her hand. Why did the burden on her shoulders feel so heavy?

But it wasn’t as busy and tense as she had imagined.

Wu Xiucai had an excellent management team in his hands.

He had built this management team himself, and it had been around for several decades.

The team consisted of people he trusted.

Initially managed by Uncle Chen, brought from Yun City, after Uncle Chen’s death, Ye Lan, who had extensive management experience, took over the management team.

Ye Lan then brought Secretary Chang into the team, who learned the ropes there for a few years. Later, Secretary Chang stayed with Wu Tai and consequently had always been mainly based in China with Wu Xiucai.

So, Qiao Qingyu also had quite a few hands on deck.

Ye Lan had sent back two people from the US, who were in charge of the headquarters’ construction in Xichuan, facilitating centralized management.

And just like that, it was almost September.

Rongrong had already taken Chaoxuan back to Xichuan. She and Li Mingguang had both received their university admission notices. After much discussion, they decided to attend the same university:

That was the Huaxia University of Science and Technology.

These two children planned to return to Tenghai after graduating.

After returning, Rongrong didn’t stay for many days. She packed her things and went with Li Mingguang by train to Beijing. From then on, this child’s time spent at home was bound to gradually decrease.

That day, Qiao Qingyu was checking her son’s homework while He Xiuyu cleared away the dishes and cutlery in the kitchen.

Qiao Qingyu had originally wanted her son to recite a text, but then she saw Chu Ying walking in through the window. They had eaten dinner early, and it was just past five o’clock.

Qiao Qingyu hurriedly went to greet her, but before she could say a word, Chu Ying pulled her by the hand to the room where Wu Qianyun used to stay, then shut the door.

She passed by He Xiuyu without saying a word to him.

He Xiuyu put the dishes in the cupboard, then turned his head to look at the closed door, frowning. What was up with his sister-in-law?

But he couldn’t follow and ask, as it was likely a private matter. If it had been a matter concerning He Xiuwen or Rongrong, she wouldn’t have passed by without saying anything.

After He Xiuyu tidied up the kitchen, he went to the study to watch his son do homework. Generally speaking, Chaoxuan didn’t need their worry regarding his studies, as he had already skipped a grade. But after discussing with Qiao Qingyu, they decided that he would just stay at this grade level in primary school and not skip any more grades, as he wanted to play with his friends.

In this child’s heart, play and playmates still weighed heavily.

He Xiuyu and Qiao Qingyu were democratic parents. Frankly, it wasn’t a given that children of high IQ parents would be ever so smart. They were already very satisfied with how Chaoxuan was doing and wouldn’t press him excessively.

After He Xiuyu checked his son’s homework, finding no issues, he put away the exercise book.

He Xiuyu turned back to supervising Chaoxuan practicing calligraphy.

The child was quite mischievous and mostly couldn’t sit still, and practicing calligraphy was a good way to temper his impatience.

He Xiuyu’s gaze occasionally drifted towards the tightly closed door. They hadn’t come out yet. What were they talking about?

At that moment, Qiao Qingyu was getting anxious too. Chu Ying was always straightforward and outspoken. Being with her meant not knowing reticence or shyness; she would say whatever came to her mind.

However, today, seeing her sit in the chair, hesitating to speak, was quite surprising. Qiao Qingyu couldn’t hold back and asked, "Sister-in-law, what’s really going on? Did you and my brother have a fight?"

"No, we didn’t. I didn’t fight with your brother," Chu Ying hurriedly explained.

"Then why did you bring me to this room all mysteriously? What do you really want to say?"

Chu Ying clasped her hands together, hung her head, and didn’t speak. Suddenly, as if a lightbulb went off, Qiao Qingyu looked Chu Ying up and down and blurted out, "Sister-in-law, you couldn’t be pregnant, could you?"

Chu Ying was stunned, suddenly stood up because she rose too quickly, and staggered to the side. Qiao Qingyu was startled and hurried over to support her.

Oh my goodness, she really guessed right.

"Sister-in-law, you really are pregnant! How can you still be so careless? Please be more careful," Qiao Qingyu then asked, "How many months are you?"
