Chapter 157: Cheng Xianglan Is Pregnant

Cheng Xianglan rarely comes to Qiao Sheng's restaurant.

Seeing her arrive.

Qiao Sheng couldn't help but be a bit surprised: "Sister Xianglan, why did you come to our place? Is there something you need?"

Cheng Xianglan leaned in, lowered her voice and said, "Qiao Sheng, I'm pregnant."

Learning she was pregnant.

Qiao Sheng beckoned Cheng Xianglan, walked to the back‑yard living room, sat down, looked at her and said, "Sister Xianglan, congratulations, you'll be a mother again soon. By the way, how many months have you been pregnant?"

Her words just fell.

Cheng Xianglan's face flushed.

"I—I was with Yun Tian before our Marriage, and now I'm almost two months pregnant. I went to see a doctor before but didn't get the results, so after a few days I went again."

So that's how it is.

Qiao Sheng was a bit surprised, but thinking that both of them have each other in their hearts, that feelings can't be controlled, he was not that surprised anymore.

"Sister Xianglan, what about Yun Tian's leg…"

Cheng Xianglan said in a moderate tone, "I've already discussed it with Yun Tian; in a few days he'll start to recover slowly. If he keeps going like this it's not a solution; if he still doesn't go to the Yamen, I guess the Town Magistrate will really have to let someone replace his position."

"Hmm."

Qiao Sheng replied, then suddenly thought of something and asked, "Sister Xianglan, does Yun Tian's mother know about your pregnancy?"

Cheng Xianglan shook her head.

Only she and Yun Tian know about the pregnancy; even her own son doesn't know yet.

Qiao Sheng pressed his lips together and said, "Sister Xianglan, I have a few things I'm not sure whether I should say."

What does Qiao Sheng want to tell her?

Cheng Xianglan met Qiao Sheng's gaze and said, "Qiao Sheng, we're so familiar, what else can't be said? Whatever you have, just say it!"

She now treats Qiao Sheng as a sister, as a friend.

She is just about to tell her about the matters at home.

Qiao Sheng said, "Alright, then I'll say it. Sister Xianglan, wasn't the child you have with Yun Tian from when you were together before? If your mother‑in‑law finds out, would she overthink?"

Regarding this matter.

Cheng Xianglan has thought about it.

"My mother‑in‑law is bound to overthink, but I'm not afraid; Yun Tian knows what's going on, and if she comes after me, I'll let him tell her."

Qiao Sheng nodded, "Hmm."

They chatted about other things for a while.

As they kept chatting.

Qiao Sheng recalled something: the custom‑made clothes from Cheng Xianglan that she hadn't gone to pick up yet.

She said.

Cheng Xianglan also remembered, "Ah, Qiao Sheng, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten. I was going out today planning to bring them to you, but I didn't take the packed ones."

"It's fine, I'll go to your place tomorrow afternoon to get them."

Qiao Sheng said casually.

Her words just fell.

Cheng Xianglan opened her mouth and said, "No need, I'll go back and have someone deliver them to you."

That's also Qiao Sheng.

If it were anyone else, they'd definitely be angry.

After all, the clothes have been ready for a long time.

Qiao Sheng smiled and said, "I still want to have some clothes custom‑made at your place; this time they're for my mother and the others, but I haven't taken their measurements yet. Once I have them, I'll go to you to have them made."

Her mother's belly is big; the original clothes, though they still fit, are all old.

She is reluctant to make new clothes; as a daughter, how could she just let her have them like that?

She made them for her own mother.

Her own father definitely can't be left out.

She simply made a set for each of them; as for her own mother, she plans to make two sets, to alternate with the other clothes.

Cheng Xianglan said aloud, "I see, then okay, you can come to my shop tomorrow."
