Chapter 217: Red Apricot Out of the Wall
When she woke up the next day, Hua Tao found that her throat was dry and sore.
She covered her mouth and coughed a few times, which became even more uncomfortable.
The position next to him was empty, and Xia Sheng was not there.
She looked at the wall clock on the wall, it was almost ten o'clock.
They didn't go to bed immediately after eating supper last night, but blew the wind on the balcony and chatted.
Later, Hua Tao felt that it was too late, and not resting would affect Xia Sheng's work the next day, so she urged him to wash up and go to bed.
Hua Tao thought that she would not sleep, or continue to think crankily when she fell asleep, but unexpectedly slept until dawn.
When she had finished washing, she ran to the kitchen to see what the hourly worker had made for her.
Basically, the menu for the week is very fixed, and Hua Tao eats for a week, and she can memorize what she eats every day, because the aunt makes repeated dishes every other day.
It can't be said that the other party is just doing this to save trouble, because three dishes and one soup are made in one meal, the dishes are rich enough, the nutritional mix is also balanced, and it doesn't matter if you repeat it every other day.
If memory serves, today's breakfast should be vegetable porridge and tortillas.
She pulled on the slippers and walked to the kitchen, lifted the veil on the small dining table, and sure enough, she saw two things of food that she expected.
If you eat both, you probably won't be able to eat lunch.
So Hua Tao only drank a little porridge.
She thought that the dry throat was just temporary, but she didn't expect it to get more and more itchy, and she couldn't help coughing, and she couldn't stop coughing.
There were several medicines for sore throat in the first aid kit, and she turned them all out and read the instructions one by one.
In the end, she still called her attending doctor, Cheng Wei.
"Dr. Cheng, I have a sore throat and a cough." Hua Tao gets straight to the point.
Cheng Wei happened to have no patients, so he patiently asked her about her condition and asked her to come to the hospital for examination immediately.
"See if it's a bacterial or viral infection, otherwise it's not good to use medicine."
Hua Tao was reluctant to go to the hospital, but Cheng Wei's tone was very harsh, or the cough caused by the virus might affect the fetus, so she could only promise to go over immediately.
As a result, the results of the examination were tonsil inflammation, Cheng Wei asked her to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, drink more hot water, and prescribed her a box of anti-inflammatory drugs, telling her: "It's best not to eat, but if the situation continues to be serious, it still needs to be treated." β
Hua Tao took the medicine, played with it in her hand, and responded absentmindedly: "Oh, I know." β
Cheng Wei said: "When you go home, you can take a little light salt water, avoid it, and don't eat spicy things." β
Hua Tao nodded.
"But also keep a cheerful and optimistic attitude." Cheng Wei finally said.
Hua Tao was stunned for a moment and smiled at her: "Okay." β
She felt that she was cheerful and optimistic enough, and after learning that her husband had the smell of other women's perfumes, she could calmly talk to him on the balcony about the stars and the moon, and talk about life philosophy from poetry and songs.
She knew from the time she knew him that he was a playboy, suave, and heartless.
But she thought she had changed him and made him concentrate on her.
The prodigal son did not change his money.
Did she believe the wrong person or did he relapse?
Hua Tao was hit by someone while waiting for the elevator, and she moved to the side, only to be hit by the person who hit her again.
The force was light and hit the shoulder.
She frowned and glared at the man, only to catch her eyes on a familiar face with a tugging expression.
"Xia Ershao?" She was a little surprised.
Xia Hanming pulled out a cool smile: "Hi." β
"Why are you here?" The elevator came, but Hua Tao didn't walk in.
Xia Hanming pushed her from behind: "Aren't you going to take the elevator?" β
"Ah, yes......" Hua Tao followed his movements and walked in, and Xia Hanming also followed, pressing the minus one layer.
Hua Tao stretched out her hand to press the first floor, but was stopped by Xia Hanming: "I drove the car and drove you back." β
Hua Tao felt a little magical.
"You're here to pick me up?"
Xia Hanming looked at her with a monster's gaze: "You are too whimsical, how did I know that you were here?" β
"Then why are you here?" Hua Tao asked.
Xia Hanming said: "Of course I came to the hospital to see a doctor, did I come here to sing K?" β
"No, I mean, you're sick?" Hua Tao looked Xia Ershao up and down, feeling that he was refreshed and strong as a cow.
The elevator door opened, Xia Hanming strode out, and Hua Tao hurriedly followed.
"I had a little cold and didn't want to come to the hospital, but Jia Shi insisted that I come, so I took the time to come." After saying that, he sneezed, as if to confirm that he did have a cold.
Hua Tao got into Xia Hanming's car and found that the backrest on the seat was in the shape of a pink peach heart, with two layers of lace on the edge.
Hua Tao: "......"
Xia Hanming started the engine with a blank face.
After leaving the garage, the light was abundant, and Hua Tao found that not only the pillow was not a few women, but even a pink crystal slipper was hanging under the rearview mirror.
Hua Tao: "......"
Xia Hanming said: "I bought them all in good time. β
Hua Tao nodded in understanding.
You can guess it.
Xia Ershao is only a middle two, with only a glass heart and no girl's heart.
"You're here for a prenatal checkup?" Xia Hanming asked while driving.
Hua Tao covered her lips and coughed twice, and said slowly: "My throat is uncomfortable, come and see." β
Xia Hanming frowned.
"Why didn't he come with you?"
Regarding Xia Hanming's awkward behavior of refusing to call Xia Sheng a big brother until now, Hua Tao no longer wants to comment on it. She smiled and said, "Xia Sheng has to go to work, and besides, I don't have a serious illness......
"Phew!" Before Hua Tao could finish speaking, Xia Hanming interrupted her, "Can you talk properly?" β
Hua Tao: "......"
Xia Ershao seemed to have no taboos before.
He turned his head and glanced at Hua Tao, also feeling a little embarrassed.
"Have you ever heard of the Spirit of Words?"
Hua Tao asked puzzledly, "What came from?" β
Xia Hanming popularized science for her: "Language has power, many words cannot be said casually, especially bad words, in case they are heard by the spirit of words, they will cast spells to make the content of the language true." β
Hua Tao: "......"
Xia Hanming said: "Jia Ji told me that she recently watched "The Spiritual Master". β
"Which master's work?" Hua Tao was a little interested, "TV series? Movie? Still is? β
Xia Hanming said: "The author is Zhi Shuixue, not a film and television work, but a Japanese comic." β
Hua Tao: "......"
She took out her mobile phone and ferried, even more embarrassed.
"You...... Seen? She asked Xia Hanming uncertainly.
Xia Ershao said with a cool expression: "I don't look at this kind of thing that only children and women see." β
Hua Tao nodded deeply: "You're right not to look at it." β
If you see it, you will definitely vomit blood.
That's Tanmei Riman.
The car drove into the community where Hua Tao lived and drove all the way to her downstairs.
"I'll send you up, and borrow the toilet by the way." Xia Hanming didn't wait for Hua Tao to agree, so he pushed the door and got out of the car.
Hua Tao: "......" is actually transferred, borrow the toilet, and send me up by the way.
"Don't you have to go to work today?" Hua Tao asked.
Xia Hanming and her entered the elevator one after the other.
"Have you ever seen a boss who needs to be in the office 9-5 like an employee?"
Hua Tao said: "I've seen a lot." β
Xia Hanming scoffed: "That's because they don't have the ability, and the successful bosses all go to play golf and drink coffee." β
Hua Tao: "...... "You just said that it is okay to socialize?"
"How's your little company doing? Ready to go out of business? Xia Hanming asked.
Hua Tao suddenly had black lines on her head: "I don't know, I haven't been back to the company much recently, and I am recuperating at home." β
Xia Hanming said: "My brother will let you be home alone?" Tsk, lonely women are the easiest to get out of the wall. β
When the elevator arrived, Hua Tao took the lead and walked out.
"yes, you tell him to be careful, I'll cuckold him at any time." Flower peach half-truths and half-truths.
Walking to the door, she took out her key and opened the door.
Xia Hanming said: "I didn't say what I said just now, it was said by Jia Ji. β
Hua Tao: "......"
Since Xia Ershao got married, the focus of life seems to revolve around Gu Jiaqi.
Happy wife.
Hua Tao was a little envious.
Xia Hanming walked into the house and changed his slippers in the entrance.
"Don't let me find out that you have a little white face hidden in the house." Xia Hanming joked.
Hua Tao said, "You can go in and check ......"
Before the words fell, a slender figure came out of the kitchen.
"Young lady, you're back." A pleasant baritone voice sounded with a smile.
Xia Hanming looked back in astonishment.
Hua Tao: "......"
Xia Hanming pointed at the handsome young guy with a pair of dark brown eyes, turned his head to look at Hua Tao and asked angrily, "What's the matter?" β
Hua Tao said calmly: "Let me introduce him, he was brought by Xia Sheng from Ireland...... Friend, called Cian. After a pause, he looked at Cian suspiciously and asked, "Why are you here?" β
Cian said, "I'm here to work. β
Hua Tao was puzzled: "What? β
Cian explained: "I am in the same company as Sister Qin Ying, and she has something to ask for leave today, so please ask me to come and help. β
Qin Ying is the name of their family's part-time worker.
Hua Tao remembered that she did receive a text message from Qin Ying on her mobile phone in the morning, saying that her grandson had a fever and wanted to take him to the hospital to see a doctor, so she asked her colleagues to come over to help make lunch.
"What does the same company mean ......?" Hua Tao felt a little incredible.
Qin Ying was sent by the housekeeping company, and Cian and she are colleagues, that is to say......
"Well, I do housekeeping for people." Cian nodded calmly.
Xia Hanming was the first to disbelieve it.
"You do housekeeping?"
Cian laughed, "Is there something wrong?" β
Hua Tao thought to herself, isn't it right to do anything, you are a good-looking man, can't you find a proper job?
Of course, it's not that housekeeping is a bad profession.
But it's really ...... to let a handsome guy with an elegant temperament sweep the floor and cook Tyrannical creatures.
"I think it's a good fit for me," Cian said. β
Xia Hanming said: "Before discussing this issue, I want to go to the toilet first. β
Hua Tao: "......"
CianοΌββ¦β¦β
Cian poured a glass of warm water for Hua Tao.
"Young lady, what do you want to eat at noon? Also, did the gentleman stay for lunch? β
Hua Tao took a sip of water from her glass, always feeling as if Cian was testing something.
"That gentleman's name is Xia Hanming, and he is your young master's younger brother."
Cian suddenly realized: "No wonder he looks so similar to the young master." β
Hua Tao: "......"
This is obviously talking nonsense with your eyes open.
She didn't think that Xia Sheng looked alike with Xia Hanming at all.
Although both are handsome.
When Xia Hanming came out of the bathroom, Hua Tao and Cian had already discussed what to eat for lunch.
"Will the second young man stay here to eat?" Hua Tao looked at him and asked.
Xia Hanming sat on the sofa with a big grin: "Originally, I didn't want to stay, but lest you be too embarrassed by being a lonely man and widow, just stay." β
Hua Tao: "......"
Cian poured Xia Hanming a glass of warm water, and then went back to the kitchen to get busy.
