After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

841 Living Together

“What’s wrong, you can’t stay at home anymore?” Qiao Mei asked teasingly.

She had also lived at home for a period of time. Most young people were unwilling to live with their parents mainly because their freedom would get restricted. It was not so bad to have to wake up early, but they had to watch their behavior all the time. Otherwise, they would get scolded.

During that time, she could not even take an afternoon nap comfortably. She would be woken up to do housework, especially when Liu Fen was at home.

“Sigh… I feel so stifled now that I want to buy a house quickly,” Xia He said.

“Just buy it. Houses are so cheap now. It won’t be worth it when the price increases in the future,” Qiao Mei persuaded.

Xia He poked Qiao Mei’s arm angrily. If Qiao Mei did not have the special ability to dig for ginseng, how could she have so much money to buy a house? Moreover, Xia He had already spent all the money that Kong Lu returned to her.

“I can lend you the money and I won’t charge you interest. How about that?” Qiao Mei asked.

She had long wanted Xia He and Xia Wen to quickly buy a house for themselves. They were both children of the Xia family. If everyone progressed at different speeds, there would probably be animosity in the future. It would be best if everyone made progress together.

“Forget it! I’ll have to spend more than 10 years to repay the debt! I’ll think about it again,” Xia He said.

If Qiao Mei had a lot of money, Xia He would have liked to accept her offer. However, Qiao Mei was going to give birth soon and then she would need to bring up her children. There would be huge expenses coming up.

Qiao Mei had just bought a few houses and probably did not have much money left. Xia He found it embarrassing to have to borrow money from Qiao Mei to buy a house.

Qiao Mei understood Xia He’s concerns, so she did not say anything else. When she received the one million dollars from He Ning, Xia He would definitely come looking for her.

After all, it would be obvious by then that she did not lack money.

At that time, she would also try to persuade Xia Wen.

“I have no issues with you coming to my place, but how are you going to convince Mother?” Qiao Mei asked.

“This matter is not difficult. I’ll just say that I’m coming over to take care of you! It’s just that I can’t be the one saying this. You have to help me put in the request,” Xia He said pleadingly.

Qiao Mei agreed to this matter and went to the public phone booth at the entrance of the alley to call Xu Lan. Initially, Xu Lan was firmly against it, but Qiao Mei used her trump card, i.e. Xu Lan’s grandchildren, to threaten her.

She said that she could not sleep well every day and that if Xia He did not come to accompany her, no one would find out if something went wrong, then the babies would be in trouble. She directly targeted Xu Lan’s weakness.

Xia He successfully received the green light to move into Qiao Mei’s house.

After hanging up, Xu Lan heaved a sigh of relief. She finally did not need to arrange blind dates for Xia He at home. Those men were all introduced by her friends on their own accord and they called her every day to urge her to quickly arrange a time for Xia He to meet the men.

Those who did not know better would think that she was the one being introduced to them!

Xu Lan only obliged to do these old friends a favor. She actually felt that it was too soon for Xia He to get married now. There was not enough time for Xia He to understand the other party’s character and personality at all. After having suffered once, she must not suffer again.

Xia He could get married whenever she wanted to. She would not force Xia He anymore.

“It’s done~” Qiao Mei said happily as she returned to the courtyard.

Xia He gave her a thumbs up and said, “As expected! As long as you take action, there’s nothing that can’t be done! Did you give my mom some magical potion? Why does she agree to everything you say now?”

Qiao Mei touched her stomach proudly and said, “I have an immunity medallion!”

Xia He was no longer envious. She did not want to experience the hardships of being pregnant. She really did not know how Qiao Mei had managed to make it so far.

“But you have to help me with something if you want to stay here,” Qiao Mei said.

“What is it?” Xia He asked.

Qiao Mei pointed to the north and said, “I bought another house that I saw previously. I want to renovate it during this period of time and make good use of that place.”

That spot was hidden and undisturbed. It was just the right place to stockpile corn. Moreover, it was not far from Li Gui’s place and the location was very convenient.

In the future, she would not have to worry about anything when they produced popcorn inside.

“Alright, I can still handle this small issue. I won’t be able to do it if you want me to cook,” Xia He said.

“Two days ago, you told me that you want to learn how to cook! Now you’re going back on your word! Sigh! Women sure change their minds quickly!” Qiao Mei teased.

Xia He was so riled up that she pretended to hit Qiao Mei and then said shyly, “Aren’t you a woman too!”
