After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! - Chapter 716

716 Let Dreams Come True

“With our combined salary, we can only be considered an average family in the capital. There are also all kinds of subsidies in school. Do you know how much money we have?” Xia Wen said.

He never asked about family matters and left the money to Tan Jing to manage. As for the fact that she always helped her maternal family, he turned a blind eye to it and pretended not to see it.

He had only been busy with Xia Zhe’s matters for a while and Tan Jing already started to be so calculative. If she really wanted to settle the scores, then she should include everything that happened with her brothers.

“We have no more money…” Tan Jing lowered her head in shame.

!!
“Has my younger brother been back for so many years? Has he ever begged us? When we got married, my younger brother even gave us a big red packet of 1,000 dollars. Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten that? What’s wrong with me helping my younger brother and sister-in-law now? Then I’ll completely separate from the Xia family and we’ll live our lives behind closed doors. You will also separate from your family,” Xia Wen said calmly.

How could she do that! Her family would definitely not agree!

Back then, she was able to marry into the Xia family without a hitch because her family had taken a fancy to the Xia family’s prominence. Due to the fact that she married into the Xia family, her family members were all promoted. Although the Xia family did not openly arrange for their promotions, the leaders of their workplaces all rushed to curry favor with the Xia family.

If one could get some pointers from the Xia family, it was not something that one could buy with money.

Everyone knew that the Xia family would not be tempted by money and had never taken sides. This was also the reason why the Xia family could protect themselves during all those dangerous times.

“No! That won’t do. It’s better for a family to be harmonious. How can we separate?” Tan Jing said in a panic.

Xia Wen snorted coldly and did not want to continue arguing with Tan Jing. He had never thought of himself as a good husband and always felt that he was not able to protect his wife and did not earn enough money to cover the family expenses. He always saw himself as being the problem.

Therefore, he had always allowed Tan Jing to do whatever she wanted. It did not matter even if she used all their money to help out her maternal family. However, now that she even wanted to cause trouble for Xia Zhe and Qiao Mei and spoke ill of them, she had crossed a line.

No matter what she did, she could not touch the Xia family members.

“Go to sleep.” After saying that, Xia Wen lay on the bed and prepared to rest. Tan Jing sat at the side silently. She still hated Qiao Mei. Even though Xia Wen had helped Qiao Mei out of kinship, she was still jealous of Qiao Mei.

Xia He also wanted to pack up and leave, but Xu Lan grabbed hold of her. For the past few days, Kong Lu had been calling her so many times like phone calls were free.

Although their family could afford the phone bill of a few dollars, they still had to resolve this matter as soon as possible. Otherwise, they would get a heart attack from the ringing of the phone every day.

“How have you and Kong Lu been recently?” Xu Lan asked.

“I haven’t contacted him. The last time I contacted him was when he was about to leave. He said that he would go home to raise money. He owes me a lot of money and he says he’ll find a way to return it to me,” Xia He said.

“You’ve already transferred your position to the capital. Are you really not going back?” Xu Lan knitted her sweater and did not look at Xia He.

Xia He had thought about this question many times. She did not want to stay in the capital all the time. The best opera house in the country was located in the South Sea, where there were many opportunities to interact with foreign dancers. If she focused on her studies, she would have a chance to go there.

“I’m still thinking about that, but I’m serious about getting a divorce from Kong Lu. Don’t try to dissuade me from this. I’ve made up my mind. The reason why I didn’t get a divorce immediately is because Qiao Mei told me something about premarital assets. I didn’t understand what she said. Anyway, the general meaning is that I should only get the divorce after Kong Lu returns me all the money,” Xia He said as she looked at Xu Lan firmly.

Xu Lan had always been aloof to Xia He. She knew her daughter best and she also knew Xia He’s dream very well. Going to the South Sea dance troupe was Xia He’s dream since she was young.

It was not only Xia He’s dream, but also the dream of all dancers.

“Next year, there’s going to be an examination at the South Sea side. They recruit people every two years and the requirement is that these recruits need to have outstanding performances and must have danced solo as the principal dancer. Next month, your dance troupe will perform as a group. During the new year, there will be a chance to get a solo performance,” Xu Lan said casually as she looked at Liu Fen.

In reality, what she said was meant for Xia He to hear.
