702 Good Romance Luck

Li Gui gave birth to her on the horse carriage heading to the county city hospital. She gave birth to Qiao Mei before she even reached the hospital.

There were not many people in the village who gave birth in the hospital. At that time, there were still no doctors in the village clinic and everyone would ask the midwives from all over the eight villages to help deliver babies.

Some women could not manage to hire midwives and could only let their mothers deliver their babies. Those were mainly near-death experiences.

She wanted to go to the capital to let Xia Fang deliver her children. She would feel more at ease with Xia Fang around.

Factually, twins usually showed signs of being born prematurely, but she was told that there were two placentas. Xia Fang told her that she could wait until she was full term before giving birth.

Therefore, her due date was around January next year. She had to go to the capital to get ready by the end of this year. Based on that, He Ning actually did not have much time to prepare the money.

After dinner, He Ning did not delay any longer and went back with Huo Gao to Wang Qin's house to pack their things.

They were almost at Wang Qin's house when Qiao Yu suddenly jumped out of the cornfield at the side and knelt in front of He Ning with a plop.

"Please! Please save me!" Qiao Yu put her hands together and knelt in front of He Ning as she begged.

Huo Gao was shocked by the woman in front of him, but He Ning's expression did not change at all. He had seen too many people like this. In the past, everyone who came to ask him for help behaved like this.

If he pitied everyone and helped everyone, the He family would really become a charity organization.

"Who are you?" He Ning asked coldly.

"I… I'm Qiao Mei's relative! I'm also the younger sister of the family you're living with now! My name is Qiao Yu!" Qiao Yu said.

When He Ning first met Qiao Mei, he had already investigated all her ancestors. This person should be the woman who was going to marry into the Guo family at that time. When he first found out about this, he thought that Qiao Zhuang was an insatiable person. He simply treated this matter as a joke. He did not expect the main character to be kneeling in front of him now.

"Oh, I understand." He Ning was about to leave when Qiao Yu grabbed his trouser leg.

"Take me with you! I know you're going to the capital! I also know you're leaving soon! I beg you to take me with you!" Qiao Yu cried.

Huo Gao stood at the side as if he was watching a comedy skit. Every year, countless families would send women to He Ning's side. If any family's daughter became the third daughter-in-law of the He family, her family's status in the capital would directly rise to the top.

However, He Ning never liked these women and he felt disdainful to be with them. He had always used his own methods in business matters and looked down on people who used women to make marriage alliances.

Huo Gao did not expect that there would still be someone chasing after He Ning even in the countryside. It was really rare. Could it be that He Ning had such good romance luck with women?

"Why should I take you with me?" He Ning asked.

"It's Xia Zhe! He said that he would bring me to the capital! He even said that he would find me a job and buy me a house in the capital!" Qiao Yu said nervously.

The meaning was self-evident. She was trying to say that Xia Zhe wanted to keep her as a mistress in the capital.

He Ning was not interested in her at first, but now that she mentioned Xia Zhe, he did not mind helping Xia Zhe bring this "beauty" to the capital.

However, he could not be seen to be involved in this matter. It had not been easy for him to gain Qiao Mei's trust and he had even reached an agreement with her for the future. If he attacked the Xia family now, it would look too bad on him.

"I won't bring you there, but I can tell you where they are." He Ning took out a pen and paper from his pocket and wrote down the Xia family's address for Qiao Yu. The address was also the Xia family's main residence, which was Xia Jun's house.

"Keep this properly. It's the Xia family's address. When you go, just tell them who you're looking for. Don't say that I'm the one who told you, otherwise you know the consequences. It's not impossible for me to send you to that old man from the Guo family next door." He Ning held the piece of paper between his index and middle fingers and dangled it in front of Qiao Yu. It was up to her to decide whether to leave or stay.

Qiao Yu quickly grabbed the note, but she also realized another problem. She did not have the money to go to the capital.

Ever since she did not get married, all her money had been taken away and she could not even make her way to the county city.
