After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! - Chapter 730

730 Hurry Up and Pay Back the Money

Xia He filled the two glasses with water from the tap. She stared at the glasses for a long time before choosing to pour the water out and replace it with boiled water.

It was not that she cared for Old Madam Kong and Kong Li! She was just worried that if they had diarrhea, she would have to pay for their medical fees. The gains would not make up for the losses.

Xia He placed the water in front of Old Madam Kong and Kong Li with a look of annoyance. Kong Li looked at Xia He smugly. It felt much better to order Xia He around at the Xia family’s house than in the Kong family’s house.

Xu Lan did not waste her breath on Old Madam Kong. Xia He had told her all the details a long time ago. At that time, she had even advised Xia He to take even better care of the family and bear with it.

!!
However, when she looked at the Kong family’s mother and daughter and their behavior, she did not intend to let Xia He continue to stay in that wolf den.

“Why are you here this time?” Xu Lan asked sternly.

Old Madam Kong took a sip of water happily and said, “In-law, don’t be so serious. I’m just here to see why my daughter-in-law doesn’t want to go home and has been staying at her parents’ house. I think your place is really nice. It’s so impressive. No wonder Xia He doesn’t want to come back.”

Xia He pursed her lips. Clearly Old Madam Kong wanted to find a way to stay here and was trying to find an excuse. She silently returned to the phone. She knew that Qiao Mei was still there and had not hung up yet.

“Talk about the door,” Qiao Mei said.

Xia He immediately understood what she meant and said, “This house is built with the best materials. This door is military grade. You broke the door, so you have to pay for it.”

At the mention of money, Old Madam Kong quickly put on a sad face and did not talk about compensation at all. She said, “In-law, look at her. I have to come over this time because she leaves me with no choice. She insists that my son gives her money. It’s an amount of nearly 10,000 dollars. We don’t have that much money.”

“Where’s the money that Kong Lu and I gave you all these years? Anyway, you wrote me an IOU in black and white. Are you saying that you won’t pay me back?” Xia He took out the account book from the drawer.

There were many promissory notes inside. A few were written by Old Madam Kong and the rest were written by Kong Lu’s two younger brothers. This was only a part of it. Sometimes, Old Madam Kong would ask her for money every two to three days, saying that it was for emergency purposes. There were no promissory notes for these incidents.

“You! Who knows if your account books are correct!” Old Madam Kong said with a guilty conscience.

“The amounts that are listed in the account book, I’ll treat it as a gift to you out of filial piety. Your thumbprint is on the IOU you gave me. If you don’t want to return the money to me, let’s go to the police station,” Xia He said.

Xu Lan remained silent and tacitly agreed with what Xia He said. Although their family did not lack this amount of 10,000 to 20,000 dollars, they could not suffer humiliation for nothing. Earlier, Xia He kept saying that it was Qiao Mei’s idea for her to wait for Kong Lu to return the money before getting a divorce. In that case, Xu Lan wanted them to spit out all the money now.

“Are you trying to send me to prison! I’m already so old. If I go in, I’ll die inside. Anyway, I don’t have any money! You can take my life! If you do this, aren’t you afraid that my son will come looking for you!” Old Madam Kong pointed at Xia He and shouted shakily.

Xia He spread out her hands and shrugged. In any case, she did not want to live with Kong Lu anymore. Once she got a divorce, the Kong family’s matters would have nothing to do with her anymore.

“It’s only right and proper to pay back money that you owe. If you can’t afford to pay, then ask your sons and daughter to pay.” Xu Lan looked at Kong Li. She had heard that this sister-in-law played a big part in bullying Xia He.

She even snatched Qiao Mei’s jewelry and had an argument with Qiao Mei. This was something that Xia Fang had unintentionally mentioned to Xu Lan. Of course, Xia Fang did not say that Kong Li was powerless against Qiao Mei and only mentioned the cause of the matter.

“I don’t have any money! I’ve already given the money for the television to my brother.” Kong Li quickly waved her hands and declined.

“We’re all family. What’s wrong with helping one another? Why are you so calculative?” Old Madam Kong said shamelessly.

That was indeed the case. Relatives should help one another out, but there had to be reciprocity. The Kong family was like a blood-sucking bug raised by the Xia family for so many years.

After the Xia family paid for their living expenses, they still scolded the Xia family behind the Xia family’s back. They said the Xia family treated them like beggars, looked down on their family and felt that they were useless. They even influenced Kong Lu into hating the Xia family as well.
