After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! - Chapter 502

502 Announcing Her Decision to Return to the Village

Qiao Mei carefully took the bowl and drank the chicken soup slowly. The chicken meat was so soft that it disintegrated with one touch. The soup was sweet and delicious.

“Thank you, mother. This soup is very delicious…” Qiao Mei said weakly.

“It’s fine. If you like it, I’ll stew it for you again tomorrow. You’ll get better quicker if you drink more,” Xu Lan said with relief.

Qiao Mei could not bear to see Xu Lan so concerned about her health. If she were to leave now, it would hurt Xu Lan’s feelings. However, if she did not leave now, the matter of the babies would be exposed and all the plans would be ruined.

!!
She looked up at Xia Zhe, her big bright eyes filled with a pleading look. She could not bring herself to say that she wanted to return to the village. Xu Lan was really too nice to her now.

Xia Zhe understood what she meant and said patiently to Xu Lan, “Mother, I plan to bring Qiao Mei back to the village.”

“Back to the village! Why so sudden!” Xu Lan looked at Xia Zhe in shock and then turned to look at Qiao Mei.

It was all her fault for being so nasty to Qiao Mei in the past. Now, no matter how much she tried to make up for it, it was useless. The babies were gone and Qiao Mei’s health was affected. It was useless to regret anything.

“Is it because I haven’t done well enough? Tell me what you don’t like about me and I’ll definitely change. If you go back to the village, who will take care of you? Isn’t your grandfather sick too?” Xu Lan said.

“My grandfather is in good health now and my mother is also in the village. She can take care of me. It’s not that you’re not doing well, it’s that I miss home,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

“I don’t have many vacation days left. I want to go back and spend some time with her grandfather, and she can also go back to relax and recuperate,” Xia Zhe added.

Foshan Village was quite a wondrous place. Since it had an abundance of ginseng, the vegetables and fruits grown there must be nutritious too. It was not a bad thing to go back to the village to recuperate, but it was just that Xu Lan could not be by Qiao Mei’s side to take care of her.

“…Then when are you leaving?” Xu Lan asked dejectedly.

“Probably the day after tomorrow. I’ll pack my things tomorrow and go buy some local specialties. We’ll take the bus back the day after tomorrow. Aunt says that there is no issue with Qiao Mei taking the bus in her current condition,” Xia Zhe said.

“Then I’ll go home and pack some stuff for you to bring along.” Xu Lan poured the rest of the soup into a bowl and went back with Liu Fang, taking the lunch box with her.

Qiao Mei could not bear to see Xu Lan like this. She was starting to like Xu Lan more and more now, but going home was equally important.

Forget it, let’s not think about the matters in the capital. I should think about how to give my grandfather a surprise! My grandfather will definitely be especially happy when I go back this time, especially when he sees that Xia Zhe has also come along. By then, he will probably only have eyes for Xia Zhe and not me.

“The two of you don’t need to buy too much stuff tomorrow. I think our mother will definitely buy a lot of things. What if you can’t bring all of it back,” Xia He said.

“If we can’t bring it back, then we’ll give it to elder sister! Elder sister can help me share the burden,” Qiao Mei said.

“I’m not going to eat such stuff. Just feed yourself well. I’ll take care of other things. Don’t worry and just go back,” Xia He said as she patted her chest.

Qiao Mei suddenly thought of something and grabbed Xia Zhe’s hand excitedly to make him sit on the bed. She asked, “Tell me quickly! What has happened outside recently!”

Her big round eyes stared at Xia Zhe like sparkling gems. They twinkled and looked so cute and spirited, making Xia Zhe unable to resist going forward to kiss her eyes.

“Ahem, there’s still someone here,” Xia He said as she held back her laughter.

Xia Zhe could not hold back even in broad daylight. It seemed that Qiao Mei was really Xia Zhe’s Achilles’ heel. Even though Eldest Aunt had taken so much time to train him on his patience threshold, he forgot everything whenever he saw Qiao Mei.

Xia Zhe coughed awkwardly and said, “Ahem… The He family has been on bad terms recently and many issues have erupted. We only know that Shen Na has been saved and is alive, but Shen Na’s father hasn’t come forward to resolve this matter yet. We don’t know what his attitude is. The Ma family has now thrown Ma San out and given up on him.”

“What do you mean? To let the Shen and He families deal with him?” Qiao Mei found it unbelievable.

The Ma family had four sons and Ma San was the third son in the family. Ma San was the most inconspicuous and also the most useless son in the Ma family. The family had never cared whether he was dead or alive.
