After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! - Chapter 1034

1034 Full Effects
Even the area in front of Xia Mao’s ward was jam packed with people. In the end, Xia Wen had to quickly arrange for a private doctor to come to the house. Qiao Mei was worried that the home environment was not conducive to providing Xia Mao with the best treatment, so she spent a lot of money to rent all the medical equipment from the hospital. She also hired another two private doctors so that the three of them could work on shifts to take care of Xia Mao 24 hours a day.

“Qiao Mei, this is too extravagant. If people find out that our family is spending so much money, they’ll probably make an issue out of it again,” Xia He said worriedly as she looked at the mob outside.

Qiao Mei did not care about all this. Even if the Xia family lost everything, she was able to support the entire family on her own. If required, she could just go into business like the He family.

However, Qiao Mei only said those words in a fit of anger. She had already asked Xia Wen before she did all that. Xia Wen had already conveyed Xia Mao’s intent to retire to the higher-ups. The higher-ups did not agree to Xia Mao’s request and only asked him to recuperate well. They even said that he could ask for anything he wanted.

“Don’t worry, as long as the people outside want my legendary ‘divine medicine’, they won’t attack our family. Do you see the person in the gray vest in the corner?” Qiao Mei said as she pointed at the corner to her right.

Xia He nodded and said, “Yes I do. He squats outside our house every day and is even more punctual than any office worker.”

“That’s the family member of one of the government leaders, so don’t worry. Everyone wants what we have. If they destroy us now, they won’t get anything,” Qiao Mei said seriously.

“How do you know who he is?” Xia He asked.

Qiao Mei was actually not too sure, but this person avoided Xia Wen every time he came, seemingly worried that Xia Wen would recognize him. That was why Qiao Mei guessed that he might be from the government.

“Intuition,” Qiao Mei said as she looked at Xia He smugly.

Xia He knocked Qiao Mei’s head impatiently. Qiao Mei always liked to joke with her. Then she asked curiously, “So do you intend to give them the medicine?”
“Yes, but not real medicine. When the time comes, I’ll mix some aged vinegar with water and give them some so that I can send them away. Anyway, they don’t even know what the supposed ‘divine medicine’ looks like,” Qiao Mei said.

This was quite a good plan, but what if someone saw through it? Besides, not all their family members were medically trained. Once everyone was satisfied with what they got and then someone took the opportunity to sabotage their family, the family would be caught off guard.

Now, they were caught in a dilemma. They reckoned that the jam outside Qiao Mei’s courtyard house must be worse than the situation at the Xia family’s house.

Xia Wen had to wait until the dead of the night, when the people outside the door left, before he could make his way home. He had to take leave from work for a period of time so that he did not need to go into the office for the time being.

“Eldest brother, think of a way quickly. This can’t go on,” Xia He said with a frown.

Xia Wen sighed deeply. He had not gone back to his own home for a month already and this matter had made it even more difficult for him to go home. When he was at his workplace today, many management staff had come to cozy up to him. If he read between the lines, they were all approaching him to ask for the “divine medicine”.

“Do you know what they say about Qiao Mei’s medicine?” Xia Wen said.

“Isn’t it about being able to resurrect the dead or live forever or become young again? Other than that, what else is there?” Xia He asked.

“Now, there are even people who say that Qiao Mei’s ‘divine medicine’ is an aphrodisiac. There are even people who make jokes about me!” Xia Wen said helplessly.

“Hahahaha, are there people who say that! It’s too funny. How can it have such an effect.” Xia He laughed so hard that her tears flowed out.

Qiao Mei laughed so hard that she could not speak. She did not know that this medicine could have so many functions.

“Be serious. My solution is to tell everyone that the medicine is developed by the army and has nothing to do with our Xia family,” Xia Wen said.

Qiao Mei immediately rejected this idea. Such a blatant lie might be able to fool some people, but it would not be able to fool those people who were familiar with the army. Many of the people who made phone calls to them were Xia Mao’s army comrades from the past. These people could find out all the details once they asked around in the army. How could anything be hidden from them?
