After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!
Chapter 691 - 691 Confession691 Confession
When Qiao Mei was pregnant, she was already treated like a treasure by the family. Now that she was not pregnant, she received even more care and favor.
Was this not telling her that she was not as good as Qiao Mei, not as outstanding as Qiao Mei, and that she was not a good daughter-in-law of the Xia family?
As long as Qiao Mei was around, she would not have a good life in this house.
Nowadays, everyone outside knew that the eldest son of the Xia family had a capable and virtuous granddaughter-in-law who was also very beautiful. As soon as she married into the family, she had made an exchange to get back Wu Min’s house. How filial. Everyone praised her and envied the family.
Tan Jing had been married into the Xia family for so long and had never been valued by the outside world.
“Mother, come over and let me take a look,” Xia Wen said to Xu Lan with a smile.
The last time he saw Xu Lan so happy was when Xia Zhe became the top army warrior for the first time. She could not hide the pride on her face.
Xu Lan twirled around and danced her way to Xia Wen. However, Xia Wen did not admire Xu Lan’s clothes but pulled her into the backyard instead.
“Xiao Wen, why did you bring me here?” Xu Lan looked at Xia Wen in confusion.
Xia Wen whispered, “I brought you here to tell you something about Qiao Mei.”
When Xu Lan heard that it was about Qiao Mei, she nervously grabbed Xia Wen’s arm and asked, “What’s wrong with Qiao Mei! Tell me quickly! Did something happen to Qiao Mei! Is it a problem with her health or is she short of money? I’ll bring money and go look for Qiao Mei now!”
“No, no! It’s good news about Qiao Mei!” Xia Wen said as he held Xu Lan back.
Xu Lan slowly relaxed. She only wanted Qiao Mei to be fine.
“Get to the point next time! Don’t you know that I have a heart problem! You’ll scare me to death!” Xu Lan held her chest to catch her breath and glared at Xia Wen.
“I’m telling you now. Previously, because the issue with Qiao Mei’s miscarriage had something to do with the He family, we kept it a secret from everyone. Now that the He family has been punished, I’m not afraid to tell you the truth about this matter. Actually, Qiao Mei did not have a miscarriage and the babies are fine,” Xia Wen said.
The babies are fine? What does that mean? Is this a scheme to frame the He family?
“Wait, I don’t understand. Are you saying that Qiao Mei is actually still pregnant? My two eldest grandsons are still around!” Xu Lan said as she looked at Xia Wen agitatedly.
Xia Wen nodded to affirm what Xu Lan said. Xu Lan was so excited that she almost shouted out. Xia Wen covered Xu Lan’s mouth and said, “Don’t shout! I know that you’re sad, so I’m telling you first. You can’t let my second aunt-in-law know about this. Otherwise, I’ll get beaten up on Xia Zhe’s behalf.”
Xu Lan blinked and asked Xia Wen to remove the hand covering her mouth. She definitely would not go out and publicize it.
“Oh my, that’s so great. Then I’ll take out the baby clothes and wash them! I’ll wait for Qiao Mei to come back and give birth! No, no! I’ll make another set for the babies. The original set is inauspicious! Oh right, I also have to speed up the renovation of the house so that Qiao Mei can go through confinement at our house!” The more Xu Lan spoke, the happier she became.
Qiao Mei, who was the mother, was not even in such a hurry. Instead, it was Xu Lan who was extremely anxious, worried that she would not be able to take good care of Qiao Mei if she did not get everything ready in time for Qiao Mei to deliver the babies.
Seeing his mother so happy, Xia Wen felt much more at ease. As for He Ning being with Qiao Mei now, it was not a big problem.
It was not difficult to get He Ning to return immediately. As long as he created some issues for the He family and gave He Ning something to do, He Ning would definitely return.
Qiao Mei busied herself at the back mountain until it was dark. She had left in a hurry previously and many plants in the back mountain had started to wither, so she used them to do experiments.
Since ginseng could be refined into essence, could she also refine pine cones into oil? Then she would be able to add pine nut oil to her cooking. It would be nutritious and delicious.
Just like that, Qiao Mei did experiments from noon to night and only returned home after she had grasped some logic.
At this moment, Qiao Qiang was already at home. He Ning and Huo Gao were sitting opposite him. Qiao Qiang was listening to the radio nonchalantly and did not care what He Ning was saying to him.
These two people could not be chased away, and they even took the initiative to come and deliver money. He could only pretend not to see anything.
