After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!



All these men used to be from the army, so they were very curious and interested when it came to things related to the military. Most of them ended their military careers due to family and other personal reasons, so they were always interested to hear stories about the army and reminisce about the old times.

As Qiao Qiang ate, he told them many stories about the past. There were even stories that Qiao Mei had never heard before! If Xia Jun was here, the two old men would probably argue again about who was the more capable one back then.

The two children also listened with interest while seated next to Qiao Qiang. Although there were many words and phrases that they could not understand, they also wanted to join in the fun. Qiao Mei acted as a translator and explained the obscure words to the two of them.

It was late when they packed up and went home. On the way back, Qiao Qiang repeatedly asked Qiao Mei if she knew who the owner of the piece of land was. He really liked this piece of land with good feng shui.

"Grandfather, you used to say that it's not good for me to keep buying houses! Why are you eyeing someone else's land now?" Qiao Mei asked.

Get someone to ask the owner if it's for sale. If it's not, then forget it. If it's for sale, then let's buy it. Don't bargain too much!" Qiao Qiang instructed.

"I know, I know. I'll arrange for someone to go and ask," Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Early the next morning, Qiao Mei asked Xia Wen to go to the warehouse to inspect the goods and verify the amount of seeds. Although the government only wanted the final product, they would still lose out if Qiao Mei took advantage of the situation and kept some seeds for herself during the process! Xia Wen was the eyes of the government in this matter and was tasked to oversee the entire process.

"I have been thinking about helping you to request for an extension in the deadline with the superiors. I didn't expect you to settle the matter of the seeds so quickly and that Xia Zhe even helped you settle the issue of manpower!" Xia Wen said in surprise as he looked at the seeds in the warehouse.

He thought that Qiao Mei had a maximum of 50,000 to 60,000 pounds of ready seeds. He did not expect 100,000 pounds of seeds to be like nothing to Qiao Mei. It looked like he had really underestimated Qiao Mei.

"I think you should still request for an extension of the deadline. The planting will take time!" Qiao Mei said aggrievedly.

"I am aware. I've already rescheduled the meeting with my superiors. If you have any difficulties, just let me know. I can raise the issue for you," Xia Wen said.

"Then… what about the reward?" Qiao Mei probed.lightsnovel

"It's definitely not possible to get a house, but you definitely won't be disappointed with what you get! Don't worry!" Xia Wen said.

Qiao Mei pouted and muttered softly, "It's already a very dreary thing that you won't let me buy a house. What can be more dreary than this?"

"There is. We have relatives coming around. They're not easy to deal with," Xia Wen said.

"Relatives from where?" Qiao Mei asked curiously.

She thought she had already met all the Xia family's relatives and encountered all those who were not easy to get along with. Were there still people whom she had never met before?

"It's my mother's elder sister, Xu Ju. She's a person who likes to make things difficult for others. Since the three of us were young, we always find it very annoying whenever we see her and her daughter. She often guilt trips my mother to do things for her," Xia Wen said disdainfully.

Every family had their own difficulties. Qiao Mei did not expect Xu Lan's elder sister to be such a person, but then again, she was skilled at dealing with evil people. As long as people did not endanger her family and her children, she would not care about them even if they caused trouble elsewhere. However, if they bullied her, then they could not blame her for taking action.

"You should go home and rest. I can take charge of things here. I'll talk to Qian'e about the matters related to the field. Don't tire yourself out. You're pregnant, so you can't overwork yourself, do you understand? No matter what happens, we're here to help!" Xia Wen said with heartache.

"I know, Eldest Brother! I know myself! Nothing will happen!" Qiao Mei said.

He actually liked this sister-in-law very much. This was because Qiao Mei's character was what he had imagined that Xia He should have. He would never have thought that Xu Lan would give birth to a "fierce monkey" who did not look like a well-bred young lady at all.

When they were young, Xia Wen bought a doll for Xia He. Unexpectedly, Xia He actually told Xia Wen that she preferred tanks and told him not to buy her any more dolls. He could only silently accept that Xia He was a tough girl.
