Chapter 1658 One Size Bigger

The men of the Xia family were very good drinkers, especially Xia Mao and Xia Wen. If they were not in a situation where they had to receive toasts from many people, they would not have any problems at all. They would not even feel dizzy.

Xia Zhe was the only exception. Perhaps it was because he did not touch alcohol from a young age, so he was not as good a drinker as Xia Wen and Xia Mao. Otherwise, how could he have gotten drunk after having a few drinks with Qiao Qiang?

Mo Chou had only downed five glasses and he was already spouting nonsense. Other than having to be patient with the drunk man, Xia Mao was feeling fine in all other aspects.

"Don't worry, it's fine. Xia Zhe is keeping an eye on them. Let's go upstairs and talk. It's so noisy here and they'll still be drinking for a long time." Qiao Mei brought Mo Zhu upstairs. Xia Fan and Xia Xing were lying in the cradle and looking at the scenery outside.

Qiao Mei had asked Feng Hua to come over and help take care of the children. Feng Hua was not young anymore and when she heard that the two children had gone missing, she suffered a sudden heart attack and almost had to be hospitalized. Now that the two children were safe and sound, she could not bear to leave them at all. She had gone through the entire process of Qiao Mei being pregnant and then giving birth to these two babies. She treated them like her own grandchildren and treasured them very much.

Xu Lan had asked someone to plant colorful flowers in the garden at the back. She had heard from other people that bright colors could stimulate the development of the children's brains. Although she did not know if there was any scientific basis for this, she still wanted to give it a try. There was definitely no harm in them looking at flowers and plants often.

"Mo Zhu, are you really that fond of my eldest brother?" Xia He asked curiously.

Mo Zhu blushed and said, "How can you ask me that..."

"Come on, come on! Anyway, there's no one else here! It's just the three of us!" Xia He said excitedly.

Qiao Mei was also very curious about what Mo Zhu liked about Xia Wen. Xia Wen was indeed a rare good man, but Mo Zhu was in the prime of her life and should be able to find a young and promising man to spend the rest of her life with. Furthermore, there was a big gap between Xia Wen's age and hers, and Xia Wen had already been married before. By right, a girl with an outstanding family background like Mo Zhu would not have progressed further with him.

"Actually, it's nothing much... I think he's very humorous and he's also a very calm person. Whenever he encounters a problem, he will immediately take proactive action to resolve it. He's also very good at dealing with my emotions. He's polite and he's also very gentlemanly! Also..." Mo Zhu talked non-stop about many things which happened between her and Xia Wen.

Xia Wen had never told them about these things before. In fact, the Xia Wen they knew was not at all like the person whom Mo Zhu had described. It seemed that Xia Wen had many sides to him that they did not know about.

"No wonder you're so attracted to my eldest brother..." Xia He said with a sigh.

"It's still early days! Don't spout nonsense!" Mo Zhu said with a red face.
