Chapter 94: Premarital Health Check-up

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

“All right.” Mrs. Xue was a little tired after a long flight. She patted Xue Haolin on his hands and said, “So you must make an appointment with her tomorrow. I’m really curious about what kind of girl she is. What makes her so special to make my dear son like her for so long?”

Xue Haolin nodded with a smile.

In the evening, when Lin Xin’er called him on the phone, Xue Haolin told her that his mother wanted to meet her tomorrow.

“Your mom wants to meet me?” Lin Xin’er hesitated, “Your mom live in the U.S. Why did she come back all of a sudden?”

She had asked him about Mrs. Xue before. His mom had been recuperating in the U.S. due to her poor health. Thus, she thought she didn’t need to see Mrs. Xue before the wedding. So she was surprised to hear the news.

Xue Haolin was helpless when thinking of what his mom said. He smiled slightly, “She wonders what her future daughter-in-law looks like. So she secretly came back without telling me.”

Lin Xin’er kept silent. Then Xue Haolin asked, “You don’t want to meet my mom?”

Lin Xin’er hurriedly explained, “You misunderstood! I’m just nervous! What if your mom doesn’t like me?”

Lin Xin’er said coquettishly, full of worry in her words.

It was chilling at night. Xue Haolin stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and smiled, “It won’t happen. Take it easy. My mother is a nice woman. She knows what you have done for me. Therefore, she always appreciates you, expecting to meet you. I’m sure you will get along well with her.”

Hearing that, Lin Xin’er definitely had no reason to refuse his request again.

The next day, looking at her pale face, Lin Xin’er frowned, carefully spent more than two hours on makeup, which made her look a little better.

She dressed herself up, trying so hard to leave Mrs. Xue a good impression.

To show her politeness, she had arrived before Mrs. Xue came.

“Mom, this is Xin’er.”

“Mrs. Xue, nice to meet you. I am Lin Xin’er.” Lin Xin’er gave her a sweet smile, as dignified and elegant as a fair lady.

At the first glance, Mrs. Xue was satisfied with Lin Xin’er, who looked like a gentle and quiet woman.

“Xin’er, I’ve heard a lot about you from Haolin. At that time, I had no choice but to leave him to his father. But I didn’t expect to make him suffer a lot of pain. Fortunately, at that time you were by his side, so I really wanted to meet and say thanks to you.”

Lin Xin’er was flattered, “Mrs. Xue, don’t mention it. I think Haolin and I are destined to be together. He’s very kind to me. I have been very grateful to god to bring him to my side. You raised him well and he became so excellent that I am even worried to not be worthy of his love.”

Every mother like to hear her children being praised.

Hearing that, Mrs. Xue had a bigger smile, “You are all good kids.”

The waiter began to serve them the meal.

Mrs. Xue preferred spicy food. So she missed the taste here after being away from Lian City for so many years.

So, considering that, Xue Haolin mostly ordered some spicy dishes for his mom. Besides, he also ordered several lite dishes.

Lin Xin’er talked sweet, with elegant appearance, which was in line with the standards of Mrs. Xue. Plus her good family background, although the economic status of her family was inferior to the Xue family, the Lin Family was still a noble one, so they were matched for marriage.

Looking at Xue Haolin, Mrs. Xue slightly nodded, showing that she was satisfied with this women at the first impression.

“Having left the Lian City for so many years, I really miss the dishes here. Xin’er, try this fish fillets in hot chili oil. It’s yummy.” Mrs. Xue picked up a piece of fish on the plate in front of Lin Xin’er. “Don’t just eat vegetables. Girls shouldn’t just eat vegetables in order to keep in good shape. You are thin enough.”

Mrs. Xue thought Lin Xin’er only atevegetables to lose weight.

Well, due to her poor health, Lin Xin’er always had light dishes, and she hadn’t eaten spicy food for many years.

Xue Haolin explained immediately, “Mom, Xin’er don’t eat spicy food.”

Mrs. Xue was slightly surprised, “As a native of Lian City, she couldn’t eat spicy food?”

Lin Xin’er didn’t know Mrs. Xue’s characteristics. For fear of making her unhappy, Lin Xin’er immediately smiled, “Well, in order to avoid getting pimples, I don’t eat spicy food quite often.”

While speaking, she ate that piece of fish Mrs. Xue had picked up for her.

No sooner had she ate the fish with red peppers, she began to choke due to the spicy taste in her throat.

She tried to stop coughing by drinking juice, but it didn’t work. She began to cough violently.

Xue Haolin immediately went over to pat her slightly on the back, and poured her a cup of water.

Mrs. Xue was surprised that she could not eat spicy food even a little.

But later, when she saw Lin Xin’er’s violent cough, she suspected that Lin Xin’er was not simply coughing due to eating spicy food.

Lin Xin’er felt a piece of pepper seeds stuck in the throat, and she was sweating with cough. Plus the insufficient blood supply of her heart, her blushed face looked even purple.

She felt very uncomfortable, but she didn’t dare to take medicine in front of Mrs. Xue. She feebly fell into her chair, just like a drowned mouse.

Xue Haolin said worriedly, “How do you feel? Any better?”

Lin Xin’er weakly nodded. However, Mrs. Xue’s smile looked embarrassed.

“Mrs. Xue, You must have been scared. I am sorry. I did not expect to be choked. I’ll practice eating spicy food when I go back, and then I’ll accompany you to enjoy the tasty food here.”

Lin Xin’er’s sweet words slightly comforted Mrs. Xue, who said, “Xin’er, why don’t tell me that if you couldn’t eat spicy food?”

She continued, “Xin’er, you just coughed badly. Are you feeling unwell ?”

Lin Xin’er said with embarrassment, “I had an illness when I was young. Not recuperated well, so there’s something permanently wrong with my body. Also, I caught a cold recently, so...”

Mrs. Xue asked, “Oh dear, I am sorry. Girls are born with a weak body. You’d better take care of yourself. Then, what kind of disease did you get?”

Lin Xin’er did not know what to say. Xue Haolin looked at Mrs. Xue with a frown, “Mom, let’s have meal first and talk about it later.”

Lady Xue glanced at Xue Haolin and said, “Now that you have already been preparing for your wedding ceremony, I advice you to do premarital health check-ups as soon as possible.”

“Premarital health check-ups?” Lin Xin’er was somewhat surprised at what lady Xue said.

Lady Xue nodded, “Yes. In order to be responsible for each other, it’s quite necessary for you to do premarital health check-ups.” She looked at Xue Haolin and said, “Haolin, you should spend one day in doing that with Xin’er.”

Then, she looked at Lin Xin’er and said, “You’d better consider about giving birth to a baby after your marriage. As a woman, the earlier you have a baby, the sooner you will recover. Through the check-ups, you’ll know whether you need to take some medicine in advance to get pregnant.”
