After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! - Chapter 1696

1696 The Children’s Car Seats
Xia Xing did not cry or make a fuss and just played happily with her toys. Xia Fan was totally different. His eyes were all swollen from crying.

After Qiao Mei coaxed Xia Xing to sleep, she walked out of the room quietly. It seemed that she had to pay more attention to how much the children relied on her. Otherwise, Xia Fan would go blind from crying.

“Mei Mei, have you gone to look for your aunt after you come back?” Xu Lan asked.

“I haven’t had time yet,” Qiao Mei replied.

“You need to go for a checkup to take a look at the baby from time to time. This is what your aunt told me. You must remember to go!” Xu Lan said.

“Alright, I understand. I’ll go when I’m free!” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Xia Wen got off from work early today and even brought back two child car seats. Today, the chauffeur had to send Xia Mao to a meeting and did not have time to pick Xia Wen up. He took the bus back alone and was totally exhausted when he reached the bus stop because of all the bags he was carrying.

“I’m back… Is there anyone who can come and help me…” Xia Wen said while panting.

Xia He quickly helped Xia Wen carry all the things behind him into the house. Apart from the child car seats, Xia Wen’s friend had also bought all kinds of new toys. These were all the most popular items now.

“Qiao Mei, you’re here too! I can install the children’s car seats later. Did you bring the car back?” Xia Wen asked.

“I drove it back. It’s parked in the garage,” Qiao Mei said as she handed the car keys to Xia Wen.

Xia Wen looked at the car keys and fell into deep thought. He looked outside and then at Qiao Mei before saying, “You drove the car back yourself?”

“Yes, I did,” Qiao Mei said.

Xia Wen was about to berate Qiao Mei when Xia He grabbed Xia Wen’s arm excitedly and said, “Eldest Brother, you don’t know how good Qiao Mei’s driving skills are! She’s much more steady than you! I always get carsick when you drive, but I don’t get carsick when she drives! I think there’s a problem with your driving skills! In the past, you always said that it’s because I’m too delicate!”

It was not only when Xia Wen drove. Even when Xia Zhe was the driver, Xia He would also feel carsick occasionally. It seemed like Xia He only felt fine when Qiao Mei drove.

Xia He pestered Xia Wen and praised Qiao Mei’s driving skills for a very long time. She praised Qiao Mei so much that he did not have the patience to listen anymore. He picked up the child car seats and left the house.

“Look at him! He just can’t accept criticism! I haven’t even said enough!” Xia He pouted.

“If you talk any longer, Eldest Brother will go back to work overtime,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

“Hmph, I’m just telling him that there’s something wrong with his driving! I want him to correct it quickly ! Otherwise, I feel very uncomfortable every time I sit in his car. I don’t even feel so uncomfortable when Deng Fan drives!” Xia He said unhappily.

After the family had their meal, Qiao Mei brought the two children back to the courtyard house. Early the next morning, she set off for the military family compound. Xia Zhe had already been gone for three or four days. If she had to take time out to go for the pregnancy checkup, she would miss Xia Zhe’s arrival home. Anyway, she could drive now, so she could go for the pregnancy checkup anytime.

At the family compound, Qiao Mei got out from the driver’s seat under everyone’s watchful eyes. All the women looked at Qiao Mei in surprise. They definitely did not expect her to be able to drive after just a few days.

“Sister! You’re too amazing! You even know how to drive such a big car!” Liu Yun said as she looked at Qiao Mei excitedly.

“I only just learned how to drive,” Qiao Mei said as she scratched her head in embarrassment.

“No need to be so humble! You’re so amazing! We all think so! Go back into the house! It’s getting windy, don’t let the children catch a cold!” Liu Yun said immediately.

Qiao Mei first placed Xia Fan and Xia Xing on the brick bed. Then, she carried the things she brought back from the capital into the house bit by bit, including the things she brought back for the neighbors.

After Qiao Mei entered the house, the other women gathered outside and talked about her.

“Since Qiao Mei can drive now, maybe she can give us a ride to the county city!”

“That’s right! This way, I won’t have to squeeze on that lousy shuttle bus every day!”

“That’s great! I must get along well with Qiao Mei in the future. Then she can also bring me along!”

These women were usually not very nice to Qiao Mei, but now that they saw Qiao Mei doing well for herself, they all wanted to come and take advantage of her! Liu Yun was so angry that she threw a basin of dirty water at them.
