After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! - Chapter 899

899 Keeping a Close Eye

After making the arrangements for Qiao Yu to work in the factory, she did not continue to follow up about this matter and she guessed that Qiao Yu probably also did not make any big mistakes. Furthermore, because she was the one who brought Qiao Yu into the factory, the workshop supervisor also took care of Qiao Yu on her account.

“Oh, her. She’s doing quite well. She can support herself with her salary,” Tan Juan said.

“Nowadays, consumers’ expectations for knitted products are getting higher and higher. It seems that our factory is not doing too well either. Those useless employees are really a burden to the factory,” Xia Wen said meaningfully as he looked into Tan Juan’s eyes.

Even a fool would know what Xia Wen meant, but she thought that Qiao Yu’s relationship with Xia Zhe and Qiao Mei was an unusual one? If they let her go, would it affect the Xia family’s reputation?

!!
If Qiao Yu ended up going to the Xia family to do something despicable, she did not want to be the one getting blamed for it.

“Aunt, do you have any other concerns?” Xia Wen asked.

“Doesn’t this person and your younger brother have… If you chase her out like this, won’t it be disadvantageous to you?” Tan Juan said vaguely.

Xia Wen frowned. He remembered that only the people present that day knew what Qiao Yu had said at the Xia family’s house. Moreover, they all knew that Qiao Yu was lying and that Xia Zhe would never do such a thing. Qiao Mei also knew the truth behind this matter and they had long cleared up any misunderstanding.

There was only one possibility for this matter to reach Tan Juan’s ears. It must be Tan Jing who told her.

Tan Juan thought that her words had triggered Xia Wen, so she quickly explained, “Xiao Wen, it’s really just out of concern for all of you. We’re all family, so let’s be frank. This Qiao Yu is not an easy person to deal with. If she really goes out to slander your family, how will you deal with this matter?”

“Aunt, I know you’re doing this out of concern for us, but you’ve really misunderstood. This matter has nothing to do with my younger brother. This woman lied to us when she came to the capital. She’s indeed Qiao Mei’s relative, but her family treated Qiao Mei very badly when Qiao Mei was young. We didn’t know about these things then and we were also deceived,” Xia Wen explained.

After hearing this, Tan Juan completely understood why Xia Wen wanted her to deal with Qiao Yu. She did not ask for any further details since it was the Xia family’s private affairs. However, Xia Wen did not look too happy just now and she did not know how Xia Wen would treat Tan Jing when he returned home.

Tan Juan made a few simple dishes and Xia Wen left Tan Juan’s house after dinner.

“Director Tan! Who’s here to give you such valuable gifts!” the neighbor from next door asked through the opening in the door.

Although Tan Juan was not a government official, she held a high post in the state-run factory and was in charge of the factory’s finances.

Ordinary commoners did not expect any of their family members to become a government official. They all just wanted to find a cradle-to-grave job at the state-run factory so that they would not have to worry about their livelihoods for the rest of their lives. However, no matter what they sent to Tan Juan’s house, she would definitely send it back the next day. She did not want to render help to anyone.

Therefore, they kept a close eye on Tan Juan’s house and monitored who went in and out of the house. As long as someone brought something to her house, they would come over and question her. If Tan Juan took any gift from anyone, they would file a report against her overnight. They just could not bear to see others doing well!

If Tan Juan did not want to help them with their livelihoods, they would not let Tan Juan have an easy time either!

“Don’t you remember! He’s our Xiao Jing’s husband! He’s here to visit me,” Tan Juan said with a fake smile.

They all knew Tan Jing. There were not too many promising people in the Tan family. In the past, Tan Jing loved to go to Tan Juan’s house and everyone who lived around the area knew her. However, ever since Tan Jing got married, they had not seen her visiting Tan Juan’s house. This was the first time they had seen Tan Jing’s husband come over after so many years.

“Oh my! So he’s your relative! Xiao Jing really married into a good family. It’s really nice that he came to see you with such expensive gifts. We haven’t heard any good news regarding Xiao Jing yet. Tell her to hurry up! If she doesn’t have a child soon, no matter how good a family is, they won’t want her anymore,” the neighbor leaned against the door and said mockingly.

These people just could not bear to see others living well and always like to poke at other people’s sore spots. However, Tan Juan was also not someone who would take things lying down.
