The next morning, when Xia He felt waves of sharp pain in her stomach, the nurses quickly pushed her into the delivery room. Deng Fan was insistent on accompanying her during the entire process and he wanted to stay by her side. Xia Fang tacitly agreed to this arrangement and had already gone through the relevant procedures with him. She told him about the things to take note of during the delivery process and how the disinfection measures he should take before entering the delivery room to ensure that it was kept as sterile as possible.

The Xia family members waited outside anxiously. Even Xia Jun came to wait outside the delivery room. After a long time, the sound of a baby crying could be heard.

“Congratulations, congratulations! It’s a girl!” The nurse walked out with a smile while carrying the baby.

Xu Lan immediately rushed forward and asked, “Where’s my daughter? Is my daughter alright?”

“Both mother and child are safe. I need one of the family members to come with me to the nursery. The rest of you can go and wait in the ward. The mother will be wheeled out in a while,” the nurse said.

Xia Wen followed the nurse to settle the registration procedures for the baby. Xia Mao looked at Xia Jun happily and said, “Father, please help to name the child.”

“It’s good to have a girl. Our family doesn’t have enough girls. This child will be Xia Xing’s playmate.” Xia Jun thought about it and finally said, “Let’s call her Xia Hui.”

“Alright! That’ll be her name!” Xu Lan said happily.

No one knew when Xia He would wake up, so everyone headed back to do their own things and would return to visit her when she was awake. At night, Xia He opened her eyes slowly and touched her slightly flatter stomach as she said, “Where’s my baby?”

“She’s in the intensive care unit. The baby needs to stay there for 48 hours and will only be sent to your side after confirming that she’s doing well,” Deng Fan explained in a gentle tone.

“What about my mother? Where’s my mother?” Xia He then asked.

Xu Lan went forward and held Xia He’s hands. Xia He immediately calmed down and felt less flustered. She did not know why she felt especially dependent on Xu Lan now. She no longer felt afraid when she had her mother by her side.

“I’m here, I’m always here. Qiao Mei already fed you some medicine so you’ll recover very soon,” Xu Lan said.

Ever since Xia He got pregnant, she had paid special attention to her figure and diet. She was worried that the pregnancy would cause stretch marks to appear on her stomach, so she asked the helper at home to apply the essence of 100-year-old ginseng on her body every day. Qiao Mei produced two big vats for her and she would even pour some into her bathwater most days.

If news of this got out, many people would definitely come and queue outside the entrance of the Xia family! The Xia family had already announced to the public that they no longer had any “divine medicine” to supply to outsiders. There was not even enough for their family members to use.

“Your grandfather has named the baby Xia Hui. Do you like it?” Xu Lan asked.

“I like it. I’ve always wanted Grandfather to help me come up with the child’s name. Mother, can you ?can you stay in the hospital and accompany me? I’m a little scared,” Xia He said.

Xu Lan stroked Xia He’s hair with some heartache. She knew that childbirth was a very difficult thing for a woman to go through. She smiled and said, “I have told your aunt to put a small bed here for me. I’ll stay here with you and not go anywhere.”

Deng Fan still had a lot of work to do. Qiao Mei had bought a house in Xia Fang’s neighborhood a long time ago. Deng Fan worked from the hospital during the day and went to that house to rest at night.

Xia You and Qiao Mei were kept busy with the construction of the school. It would soon be autumn. The National Education Bureau had issued a statement announcing that school recruitment for new students would be in March and September every year. Therefore, Qiao Mei wanted to get the school up and running before September.

She hired a very big team of construction workers and built the main school building, the dormitory, the office building and a laboratory in just a month. She did not intend to take in too many students. After all, there would not be many children in the capital who could meet her requirements.

First and foremost, each child must be at least eight years old and ready to enter school. After all, this was not an orphanage and she could not take in those very young children. Qiao Mei intended to go around and visit many families who could not afford to send their children to school so as to give these children a chance to continue with their studies.

However, she also had other conditions. It did not matter if the children’s academic results were good or bad, but they had to study hard and cherish the opportunities that she gave them. Otherwise, she would send them back to their own homes or respective orphanages.

Qiao Mei brought along the relevant materials and headed to the Education Bureau. The deputy director of the Education Bureau had been waiting at the front door for a long time. He had long wanted to meet Qiao Mei in the flesh. Previously, he had only heard of Qiao Mei’s name from his colleagues and superiors. Now, he could finally meet her.

“Hello, Qiao Mei. I’m the deputy director of the Education Bureau. My name is Cao Ping. It’s a pleasure to meet you,” Cao Ping said excitedly.
