After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

495 Eating Too Much

He Mei’s face was as important to her as her life. Now that her looks were marred and the whole matter had been messed up, she knew that she would definitely be reprimanded by her little uncle when she went home. If he simply found some random family for her to marry into, her life would be over!

At the same moment, Qiao Mei was lying on the hospital bed with her heels kicked up and eating delicious food. Her current lifestyle was simply the most ideal in the world. She did not have to do anything every day. She had a husband who loved her and family members who cared about her. She could eat whatever she wanted.

She would not mind if she stayed here for the rest of her life!

“Hey you, don’t eat so much! You’re only eating and not exercising now. What if your health is affected if you have to keep staying here?” Xia He looked at Qiao Mei’s stomach worriedly.

Her stomach looked a little bigger than when she first entered the hospital. It must be caused by all her eating in the past two days!

“Alright, I hear you. Did father and grandfather blame you?” Qiao Mei asked.

Of course they blamed her! However, they viewed Xia Zhe as the main culprit. She was only an accomplice and they had been lenient with her punishment. In comparison, Xia Zhe did not have it so easy.

After he got home, he had to carry out military training like he was back in the army. She did not dare to imagine how that must have felt.

“No, they vented their anger on your husband. Of course I’m fine,” Xia He said gloatingly.

“You can still laugh about it! He’s your own younger brother! Hmph, be careful or I’ll tell him,” Qiao Mei said daintily.

“That’s also your husband, yet you don’t feel sorry for him. He’s actually taking the blame for you. Don’t act recklessly just because grandfather and father like you. They said that they would only turn a blind eye this time. If there’s a next time, they’ll break your legs!” Xia He used her hands to gently chop at Qiao Mei’s legs.

“Hahahaha. Elder sister, don’t scare me. I also want to get out of here soon. It’s so boring here. I only eat and sleep every day, I don’t even dare to go out for a walk. If mother and Second Aunt-in-law see me, the truth will be exposed,” Qiao Mei pouted and complained.

Not many people in the family knew about this matter for now. In order not to raise any suspicions, they did not tell Xu Lan and Liu Fen about it, afraid that the two women would do something wrong and ruin the plan.

For the past few days, the Xia family had been sending tonics to the hospital as if everything was free. Every day, Qiao Mei only ate chicken soup and nothing else.

“By the way, where’s brother-in-law?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

Xia He was peeling an apple and her hand paused when she heard the question. After Kong Lu completed his work in the capital in the past two days, he had gone home with Kong Li. If they continued to stay in the capital, they would probably run out of money.

“I don’t know. I haven’t been in touch with him recently. I don’t know what he’s up to,” Xia He said perfunctorily.

Qiao Mei knew that this was only Xia He’s excuse to hide the fact that she was unwilling to face the issue. However, it was still better for her to be in the capital than in the small county city that the Kong family lived in. At least she felt more at ease at her own home.

“Then Old Madam Kong didn’t force you to go back?” Qiao Mei asked.

“Her? What right does she have to force me? If she’s so free, she should think about how to return the money to me. Their family is in a mess now and I don’t want to get involved. I refuse to answer her calls. They can come and look for me when Kong Lu has raised the money,” Xia He said.

For now, she had nothing to do and felt carefree. She was sure that everything would stabilize after her transfer to work in the capital was completed in two days’ time. However, the most important thing now was to take good care of Qiao Mei, and deal with the He family so that they could no longer have any ulterior motives towards the Xia family.

“How’s Qian’e? Is there any news of her?” Qiao Mei asked worriedly.

Ever since she was hospitalized, there had been no news of Qian’e. Xia He also did not manage to find out anything about her either. They thought that she was probably safe and sound and that the He family would not dare to cause trouble for her.

“I’ve asked around and nothing has happened so far, but I can’t seem to get in touch with her. I think the He family is monitoring her movements and it’s not convenient for her to contact us now. However, the He family is aware that Qian’e has evidence, which means they won’t do anything that threatens her life. So don’t worry,” Xia He said.

Qiao Mei ate the apple that Xia He had peeled and looked at the scenery outside the window in a leisurely manner. She had heard from Xia Zhe that the two older sons of the He family would be released within the next two days. The He family would definitely still get up to something. She would let them get busy for a few days first. After a few days, she would go and find trouble with the He family and increase their workload.
