Because he had no money in his pocket and still owed the bank 160,000, Ge Dongxu had no choice but to wait for the villa to be finished soon so that he could move to Jiang Family Village sooner. Even without the Taiyin Spirit Gathering Formation Talisman Jade, he could still barely cultivate.
As for the profits of Yaxu Trademark Factory in the coming period, Ge Dongxu planned to continuously invest in Jiang Family Village before the end of this year. Since he had already borrowed from the bank, Ge Dongxu decided to stick to this path for the year. As for the bank's money, he planned to pay it back with next year's profits.
Ti quickly moved to mid-May.
Jiangnan Province is located in the subtropics, and its climate becos hot earlier than other places. Female students in the campus had already started wearing skirts and T-shirts, exuding a youthful vibe.
It was Friday of this day, and as Ge Dongxu went ho after school, Cheng Yazhou told him that Chief Zuo Le asked him to give him a call.
Ge Dongxu didn't know what Zuo Le wanted, so he imdiately borrowed Cheng Yazhou's cell phone and called Zuo Le.
"Dongxu, I have so good news. Jingfang went to the hospital today, and the result is that she's pregnant!" Ge Dongxu had just connected the call when Zuo Le excitedly said.
"That's wonderful, congratulations Elder Zuo!" Ge Dongxu also felt happy for Zuo Le, and at the sa ti, he breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, at the beginning of the year, he had boasted that if Xu Jingfang really couldn't get pregnant, it would be embarrassing for him.
"Haha, I can't thank you enough for this. Tomorrow is Saturday, will you be in the county town? If you are, Jingfang and I would like to invite you to dinner, we both want to thank you in person!" Zuo Le said happily.
Ge Dongxu was about to say there was no need, as he planned to return to Baiyun Mountain, but rembering that Xu Jingfang was already 42 years old, a definitely advanced-age pregnant woman, with considerable risks even with the pregnancy, he hesitated and then said, "That would be good, I can also check her pulse and prescribe so dicine to stabilize the pregnancy!"
"Thank you so much, Dongxu, we had the sa intention. After all, Jingfang is older, if sothing goes wrong this ti, it might be difficult in the future." Zuo Le and his wife had the sa thought, and they were moved that Ge Dongxu had considered it first.
"Haha, I haven't had the chance to thank you for our factory's issue last ti," Ge Dongxu said with a smile.
"It's not the sa, not the sa. Back then, it was my fault as a county committee leader for not doing my job well; I should apologize to you," Zuo Le imdiately said.
"Haha, anyway, we don't need to be so formal with each other, just set a ti and place," Ge Dongxu said.
"Let's go to Old Lin's place then, at six in the evening. I'll have Yue Ting wait for you in the lobby," Zuo Le said.
Ge Dongxu acknowledged and then hung up the phone.
The next day, at six in the evening, Ge Dongxu arrived at Changxi Grand Hotel as scheduled.
It was the sa private room and people, everyone's face brimming with happy smiles. When Ge Dongxu pushed the door and entered, everyone instinctively stood up, their gaze inadvertently laced with a hint of awe and gratitude, of course.
"Dongxu is here, co take a seat, take a seat!" Today was Zuo Le's treat, and as soon as he saw Ge Dongxu, he imdiately waved him over.
With the experience from the last al, Ge Dongxu was no longer hesitant or overly polite.
After Ge Dongxu sat down, Lin Jinnuo imdiately instructed the waiter to serve the dishes and Huadiao Wine.
"Jingfang, why don't you switch seats with Zuo Le before we start drinking, so I can check the child's health condition," Ge Dongxu said with a smile.
"Thank you, Dongxu," Xu Jingfang promptly got up and switched seats with Zuo Le.
"Dongxu, Auntie just got pregnant not long ago, can you already tell what's going on?" Yue Ting couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Of course, I can even tell the gender." Ge Dongxu laughed. Everyone is born with a breath of primal energy; the stronger the life breath of this primal energy, the healthier the child will naturally be. As for the gender, you just need to feel whether this life breath is more Yin or Yang.
"Really? Then...never mind, Dongxu, don't tell whether it's a boy or a girl. It's nice to have sothing to look forward to." Xu Jingfang's eyes lit up at first, but then she shook her head.
Ge Dongxu smiled and then placed his hand on Xu Jingfang's wrist.
"The child is doing well; there won't be any problems. I'll prescribe so pregnancy and health-preserving dicine based on your constitution to ensure you have a healthy, chubby son!" Ge Dongxu laughed.
"Haha! I'm going to have a little cousin!" Yue Ting laughed happily upon hearing this.
"What cousin? Ah..." Ge Dongxu was montarily stunned, suddenly realizing he had let the cat out of the bag and couldn't help but slap his own head.
"Haha! Congratulations, Elder Zuo, Jingfang." Lin Jinnuo hurriedly stood up, cupping his fists towards Zuo Le and Xu Jingfang to congratulate them.
Yue Feng and his wife also joined in the congratulations.
In Changxi County, the preference for sons over daughters was still quite strong. Although Xu Jingfang had just told Ge Dongxu not to tell her the gender, deep down she was hoping for a son. And Bureau Chief Zuo Le of the Zuo Family, who only had one son himself, took the matter of not having children very seriously. Now that he heard his wife was carrying a boy, he was all smiles, repeatedly giving thanks: "It's all thanks to Dongxu, all thanks to Dongxu!"
"Elder Zuo, you really shouldn't say things like that carelessly!" Lin Jinnuo, seeing how the couple spoke, couldn't resist teasing them, which made Xu Jingfang's face turn red, while Zuo Le pointed at Lin Jinnuo, laughing and cursing, "You, Old Lin, daring to make such jokes. Be careful or I'll send inspectors to your hotel every day!"
"No, no, Director Zuo, I was wrong, I apologize, I apologize!" Lin Jinnuo quickly apologized emphatically, while Ge Dongxu was still young and had not yet caught the teasing in Lin Jinnuo's words, showing a puzzled look and couldn't help but ask, "Old Lin, what did you do wrong?"

"I, I..." Only then did Lin Jinnuo realize that Ge Dongxu was still just a high school student, and his face instantly turned red.
"Let's see if you dare to talk nonsense in the future!" Zuo Le and Yue Feng pointed at Lin Jinnuo, then said to Ge Dongxu, "Dongxu, don't listen to this guy's nonsense, nothing good cos out of his mouth."
"Right, right, don't listen to my nonsense." Lin Jinnuo hurriedly said.
Ge Dongxu was a smart person. Even if he hadn't yet grasped the aning of Lin Jinnuo's words, he understood by now that this was not a topic to continue, so he laughed and said, "Alright, the child has been seen, now let's drink."
So, everyone agreed, and Lin Jinnuo finally sighed in relief.
So things are commonly said at the dining table; Lin Jinnuo had montarily forgotten that Ge Dongxu was not the sa as the others, and that his earlier comnt was indeed not suitable.
It was just a small interlude. Soon, the private room burst into lively toasting, with everyone frequently toasting to Ge Dongxu and the soon-to-be father, Zuo Le.
"Elder Zuo, there's been a rumor lately that the county governnt is planning to rebuild the office building. Is that true?" Lin Jinnuo suddenly asked when the wine was flowing freely.
Zuo Le was slightly taken aback, then pointed at Lin Jinnuo and said, "Old Lin, you know the principle I work by; don't ask about this again. When it's ti to know, you'll naturally find out."
ps: Continuing to ask for recomndation votes, thank you very much.
