Chapter 36 Getting A Baby
Chapter 36 Getting A Baby
Old Mrs. Herbart nced at Flora.
"Just because you can''t get it, doesn''t mean others can''t," she said.
The scent of Miller''s biscuits was unique, and Flora knew it was genuine just by smelling it. She had
talked too much tonight and Old Mrs. Herbart scolded her.
Flora didn''t dare to stir up trouble anymore and stood there with a straight face.
After scolding Flora, Old Mrs. Herbart smiled kindly at nche and Louis.
"Thank you for your consideration, my children. My 80th birthday wish has already been decided. I
wish the two of you a happy marriage and to get a chubby little boy as soon as possible."
The crowd was taken aback. Old Mrs. Herbart''s previous birthday wishes were all about the
prosperity of the Herbart family. But she was actually this casual this year, not only making her wish
before lighting the candle but also only wishing Louis and nche a happy marriage and getting a
chubby little boy as soon as possible
nche and Louis were even more confused. Hearing Old Mrs. Herbart wishing them a happy
marriage and to get a chubby little boy as soon as possible, nche blushed with embarrassment.

nche thought to herself, "Louis and I get a chubby little boy? How could it even be possible? I
have never thought about it before."
Louis was also stunned for a moment. When he saw nche''s red ears, he felt strange and thought
it was rare to see this woman get shy.
Mike, who was next to Old Mrs. Herbart, reminded them with a smile, "You two should be thrilled.
Old Mrs. Herbart can only make a birthday wish, and she made it for you. You should say thank
you."
nche gave Louis a look, hinting at him to thank his grandma. However, Louis turned his face
away and ignored her.
nche clenched her hands and thought, "What a coward! When faced with a problem, he only
knows how to hide like a turtle. Well, it seems that men can''t be relied upon after all."
"Thank you, Grandma," nche said with a big smile.
Flora, who was next to them, felt upset and animosity toward nche when seeing this.
After all, if Old Mrs. Herbart treated nche well, Flora''s daughter-inw would enjoy less liking
from Old Mrs. Herbart.
Hence, Flora couldn''t help but provoke again.
"If you have to wear a mask to go out, I think there''s no need for you to attend this banquet. After
all, you can''t eat or drink anything. It''s better for you to stay at home."
It seemed that Flora was determined to go against nche tonight. nche looked at Flora and
replied with a smile, "Aunt Flora, you must be joking. It''s Grandma''s birthday banquet, and everyone
should attend to make it meaningful. No matter what, I shoulde."
Flora didn''t expect nche to talk back. When Flora was about to retaliate, Old Mrs. Herbart sternly
nced at her again, and Flora had to shut up and stop instigating.
When Flora finally shut up, Eric, who had been silent all this time, moved closer to nche,
coughed, and raised his eyebrows proudly, pointing to the Magnolia brooch on Old Mrs. Herbart''s
chest that nche had designed. No wonder he had been looking pleased all the time.
"Grandma, now that you have received the gifts from everyone, could you tell us what your favorite
gift is this year?" Eric asked.
Old Mrs. Herbart red at him, thinking that this brat set a trap for her again.
"All the gifts you have given me are my favorite because they all represent your love for me," Old
Mrs. Herbart replied.
Eric didn''t give up. "Really? Although the silver goblet and Miller''s biscuits are impressive, I still
think you like the brooch I gave you the most. Otherwise, why would you be wearing it on your
chest? If you don''t deny it, I''ll think my gift is your favorite."
Old Mrs. Herbart chuckled. "You brat."
She confirmed his im with that.
Old Mrs. Herbart loved magnolia flowers because they held a special meaning for her. The first
bouquet of flowers that her husband had given her back then was just magnolia flowers.
"Grandma, to be honest, although I gave you the brooch, it was also thanks to nche''s efforts.
She was the one who personally designed it," Eric added.
nche was surprised and wondered, "Isn''t Eric afraid that I''ll take his credit?"
Old Mrs. Herbart was momentarily stunned and then looked at nche with much more
appreciation.
"nche, it seems that you have a pair of skilled hands. When we cut the caketer, please help
me," Old Mrs. Herbart said, singling nche out again.
Clearly, she was confirming her approval of nche. In this big family, everyone knew that whoever
Old Mrs. Herbart favored would be an important figure with special personal cultivation and
improvement.
Old Mrs. Herbart waved her hand. "Alright. You all can go socialize now. I''ll go inside and have
some tea. Call me when it''s time to cut the cake."
