We Are Expecting A Flower Soon

At the Xiao mansion,

The Xiao family were having breakfast that morning.

The dinning table was surrounded by all the Xiao family. There was a big shiny chandelier at the the top of the ceiling, the dinning room was furnished with smart gadgets and beautiful interior designs.

The eldest man among them was Xiao peng the father of Xiao Shuang. He was seating at the front of the table and was sipping his strong taste tea.

Zhi Ruo sat near her son, while other family members, such as sister-in-law, brother-in-law, aunts, and cousin. They all lived together in that mansion happily as one big family.

"Ahem" Xiao peng cleared his throat to speak.

The little kids who were chattering little noises all kept shut. They had given ample respect to Xiao peng since he was now the head of the family.

Ever since grandfather Xiao's death, Xiao peng had became the elder and was in control of everything happening at home.

The entire dinning room was as silent as the grave yard, everyone stopped talking. And only the sound of plates could be heard since the maids were clearing them up.

Elder Xiao thought it would be nice if the kids return to their room, this discussion was about the business and other private issues that were not meant for kids hearing.

Xiao Feng cleared his throat and began.

"Xiao yan!" He called his nephew.

Xiao yan and xiao Shuang were almost the same age. But Xiao yan was already married and was blessed with one daughter.

The Xiao family were actually waiting for when Xiao Shuang will introduce his own wife to them, of all families in the district, the Xiao family children were known for their early marriages. One could even be nineteen years old and he will end up having a wife, while the daughter could be sixteen years old before getting married.

"Yes uncle, you called" Xiao yan answered.

"Actually, I wanted to confirm something from you," He began.

"Yes, uncle"

"How many years were you when you get married to your wife?" Xiao peng asked and everyone were surprised.

"I was twenty years old" Xiao peng replied, he wasn't sure of where the question was heading to, but still decided to answer him.

"So how old is Xiao Shuang now?" He queried further.

Xiao yan looked at Xiao Shuang before answering his question. "He is twenty two years old now" He replied slowly.

"Good, now tell me. Is it not high time for him to bring his wife home? and i_"

"Oh father, please. You could have told me that the discussion was about marriage. I told you that I shall get married before the end of this year. Why the hurry?" Xiao Shuang cut in and spoke irritatedly.

Xiao peng had to shut up his mouth, he had been I a haste to meet his son wife and he couldn't control himself any more. Next he turned to Xiao Ran, who was just twenty years old.

"And how about you Xiao Ran, when will you introduce your wife to us?" He asked him.

"Very soon uncle, I'm still searching for one" Xiao Ran answered and smiled.

Xiao peng was flattered by his response.

"Very soon? I asked you to give me a specific time. You kids should be very serious with your life. Xiao yan had fulfilled my wish and his dead father's wish. And now the two of you are left" He pointed to the two of them.

Zhi Ruo didn't know whether her husband was possessed, he spoke in such a harsh voice today.

"Oh come on honey, you should have just told the kids what we wanted." She spoke and turned to look at Xiao Shuang and Xiao Ran before continuing. "What your father wants to say is that, we are expecting a new flower soon. It doesn't matter if you give a specific date. We don't want you to hurry otherwise you will find the wrong girl. But make sure you are smart and make it quick. Because I can't wait to see new daughter-in-laws in this family" Zhi Ruo explained.

'Ooh' The other members of the family exclaimed and broke into laughter. While Xiao peng just faced another place, wondering why his wife caught him this time.

Same day at Huiyin's home.

Huiyin smiled to herself as she stared at the mirror, she had just finished receiving a long phone call from Xiao Shuang who had promised to take her out tomorrow.

He sounded so nice and sincere that Huiyin kept on recalling the words he had said on her head. And she couldn't wait for tomorrow.

She had rushed to the passage to wash her clothes. She didn't have that much clothes and couldn't find the one to wear.

Lixin had bought her a beautiful shiny frilled gown on her nineteenth birthday and she was going to wash it, iron it and put it on tomorrow.

"Oh my goodness, I can't wait!" She giggled.

Wang Shu couldn't guess why her daughter was so overjoyed this evening. 'Was it because I made the dumplings with carrots?' She thought. No that wasn't the reason, she was going to ask her daughter why she was so chatty this evening.

Wang shu met Huiyin washing her clothes on the washing machine and was humming a popular pop song to herself while she danced.

"Huiyin dear, why are you so chatty this evening?" Her mother asked while seating on the bench.

"Mum, you wouldn't believe this! I saw Xiao Shuang yesterday while going to meet MeiYin at the hotel, we chatted and he told me a lot of things" Huiyin explained smiling.

"Oh Xiao Shuang? that guy that usually hang out with you back then. It has been years since i saw him" Wang Shu replied.

"Yes he told me that he just returned and tomorrow I will go and meet his" Huiyin smiled.

Wang Shu was quite aware about Huiyin relationship with Xiao Shuang, so she will definitely not stop Huiyin from going out with him.

"Good luck then. Please send my regards" She spoke and stood up to go inside.

Huiyin was overjoyed.

"Tomorrow, I am going for a date?!" She giggled.
