Chapter 209: Chapter 209: Are They Male or Female_1

After dealing with Mrs. Wang, Xia Ningxing and the boss’s transfer notices came through, and they both enrolled in the best middle school in the city district.

Before long, the Dragon Boat Festival was upon them.

Two days in advance, Xia Jiehao took Xia Ningxing and her daughter back to their hometown to celebrate the festival.

Mrs. Xia was already four months pregnant, and her baby bump was very noticeable.

Grandpa Xia, Old Mrs. Xia, and Xia Shufang were all eager to welcome Xia Ningxing and her family, surrounding them with warmth and concern.

Especially Xia Shufang, who hugged Xia Ningxing tightly and showered her with kisses, "Little girl, did you miss your aunt?"

She had disliked Xia Ningxing before due to her prejudice, but now that bias was long gone. The more she saw Xia Ningxing, the more delighted she became, wishing she could have her niece adopted by herself.

"Why would I miss you?" Xia Ningxing, with disgust, wiped off the saliva left on her face and pushed her away, casting a disdainful glance her way.

Xia Shufang was heartbroken, "You girl, I even brought you gifts from abroad!"

"Aunt! I really missed you so much! It’s been like three autumns in a single day without you!" Xia Ningxing instantly changed her tune, affectionately hugging her arm.

Seeing Xia Ningxing’s witty and lively manner, everyone was on the verge of bursting into laughter.

As the family entered the house amidst laughter and chatter, they didn’t notice a sinister figure lurking in the shadows, eyeing Mrs. Xia’s bulging belly with bitter hatred.

Bitch!

I will never let you off!

She was just passing by and happened to see this scene; it seemed like fate was giving her a chance for revenge.

Xia Ningxing, with her sharp senses, felt something and abruptly turned to look behind her, but there was no one there.

She looked around again, still no sign of anyone.

Xia Ningxing frowned slightly, narrowed her eyes, and wondered, why was there no one? Had she been mistaken?

"Bao’er, why are you standing outside like a fool? Hurry up and come in!" Mrs. Xia, walking ahead, noticed her daughter was missing and quickly waved her back.

"Coming!" Seeing there was still no one, Xia Ningxing turned and walked into the house.

On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, after having lunch, Xia Ningxing’s family went to Grandma Cheng’s house in the evening.

It was a local custom that besides the Lunar New Year, family members should eat with their in-laws during midday of a festival and reunite with their parents and children at the maternal grandmother’s house in the evening.

"Bao’er is here!" Upon arriving at Grandma Cheng’s house, Xia Ningxing was once again surrounded by a crowd, including her uncles, aunts, Grandma Cheng, Lin Jiajia, as well as her cousins and younger cousins.

Thinking of everything Xia Ningxing had done for her own family, from helping with business to saving Lin Jiajia, they couldn’t wait to pamper her and hold her close.

"We haven’t seen you for several months, Grandma has missed our Bao’er so much!" Especially Grandma Cheng, who pulled Xia Ningxing into her arms and after some heartfelt chatter, she then remembered Mrs. Xia, who was left aside with her belly showing.

Seeing her bulging belly, the old lady’s eyes crinkled with joy. Although her attitude wasn’t as warm as it was toward Xia Ningxing, she was still quite happy, "Oh my, Xiaoqi is so big now! Have you checked if it’s a boy or a girl?"

Such matters were as curious as winning a lottery.

So as soon as she finished speaking, everyone in the room turned their attention toward Mrs. Xia.

Although medical technology was somewhat behind at the time, checking the baby’s gender was possible, and it was permitted.

"Don’t mention it, Mother." Mrs. Xia sighed deeply at the mention, shaking her head as though at a loss for words.

Grandma Cheng and everyone else in the room were puzzled, "What exactly happened?"
