[edit] Biography
Xiao-Mei is an illegal immigrant from China, sold by her uncle to Maxine Bennett (an acquaintance of Bree's) as a domestic servant. After being liberated by the authorities, she is brought to the Solis home by Father Crowley. After Lily is taken away from the Solises, they begin to explore the idea of surrogacy. This coincides with Xiao-Mei's need to avoid deportation, which the ICE and INS have been threatening Xiao-Mei with since her liberation from Maxine Bennett's house. Believing she has found a way to have her cake and eat it too, Gabrielle convinces Carlos that Xiao-Mei's surrogacy would solve both problems. however, as Xiao-Mei does not understand the process which Gabrielle and Carlos are proposing. Catching Carlos in the master bath before the appointment at the fertility clinic, Xiao-Mei slips off her robe to reveal that she is wearing nothing, and then scoots into bed as Carlos turns to stare at her and gives the classic 'be gentle' line. Carlos, dumbfounded, is then jolted from his stunned stupor by Gabrielle, who is not happy that Xiao-Mei has misunderstood and less happy that Carlos did not instantly correct her misconception. Gabby got more than she bargained for as she was forced to watch over Xiao-Mei as her pregnancy grew difficult, causing some tension between the two to the point she even ran away once. Her waters broke at Bree's wedding and she gave birth to a black baby boy as the Solis's embryo had been accidentally switched. Carlos and Gabby buy her a lease to an apartment in Chinatown
