After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1123 Worried

“It’s just two sneezes. I guess someone was scolding me. What has it got to do with a cold?” Qiao Mei pouted and said.

It was a common saying that one sneeze meant that someone was thinking about you, two sneezes meant someone was secretly scolding you behind your back, and three sneezes meant someone was talking about you behind your back. Any more than that and it meant that you had caught a cold.

“You only know how to quibble with me! You never listen to me!” Xia He said angrily.

“I didn’t do anything wrong! Why should I listen to you? Didn’t I just sit in the courtyard for a while? I’m wearing so many layers of clothes. Do you still need to criticize me?” Qiao Mei said aggrievedly.

Xia He was so angry that she left Qiao Mei behind and returned to the room. With a loud bang, she closed the door forcefully, leaving Qiao Mei sitting there and feeling at a loss.

What was going on? Why was Xia He so angry? Usually, Xia He could not even bear to say anything harsh to her, so she had never seen Xia He behave like this. Could it be that she had really done something which offended Xia He?

Qiao Mei gave it some thought and finally decided to go to the kitchen to get some delicious snacks. Xia He really liked snacks and would definitely forgive her after eating some. She quietly went to Xia He’s room door and quietly pushed it open a little.

“Elder sister~ My good elder sister~ Come and take a look. These are some new pastries~ Come and smell them~” Qiao Mei leaned against the door and shouted sweetly.

Xia He could not help herself from taking a gulp, but she turned her head away from Qiao Mei. Qiao Mei continued to act pitiful and said, “If my elder sister doesn’t let me in, then I’ll just sit at my elder sister’s door until my elder sister forgives me! Ah… it’s so cold outside…”

“Are you a child! How dare you joke around with your health!” Xia He said as she opened the door out of exasperation.

“Hehe, you’re finally willing to pay attention to me~” Qiao Mei held the plate and smirked at getting what she wanted.

Xia He pulled Qiao Mei into the room and covered her tightly with the blanket. She only spoke when she saw Qiao Mei’s face gradually turning rosy.

“Don’t you know how dangerous it is for you now! You still dare to stand outside in the wind! What if something happens to you! How am I going to explain this to my family! You always don’t listen to me and you always think that everything is fine. What if something really happens! How will either of us be able to handle it!” The more Xia He spoke, the more agitated she became and she started crying aggrievedly.

Qiao Mei was at a loss. The only time she saw Xia He cry, it was because of Xia Mao. Even when Xia He divorced Kong Lu, she was not so sad. Yet Xia He actually broke down out of concern for her health.

The thing was that she had a multifunctional bangle. As long as she soaked this bangle in the 100-year-old ginseng juice every day, it would naturally be filled up with energy the next day, like a portable charger. Even if she wore short-sleeve clothes and walked around outside the house, she would not catch a cold.

However, no one else knew that Qiao Mei had such an ability. Therefore, they were naturally worried about Qiao Mei’s health. After all, Xia He was not Qiao Mei’s biological elder sister and she could not behave like one. Xia He was worried that if she interfered too much, Qiao Mei would find her annoying and reject her presence.

As time passed, Xia He felt more and more pressurized, leading to the breakdown today.

“I’m sorry… I’ll definitely take good care of myself in the future. I won’t let my elder sister worry anymore,” Qiao Mei said as she tugged at the corner of Xia He’s sleeve.

“You must be healthy and well. Otherwise, what am I going to do? Other than my elder brother and younger brother, you’re the only one I can talk to. If you don’t take good care of yourself, what will happen to me in the future?” Xia He asked.

“I swear, I’ll definitely be healthy and well. I’ll definitely listen to you!” Qiao Mei raised three fingers and made an oath.

“Then you have to listen to Mother as well. Recently, she has found you a few helpers and a gardener to take care of your meals and daily needs,” Xia He said.

It made sense to look for helpers, but why was there a need for a gardener? She could handle all the flowers and plants at home herself, so why was there a need for an outsider?

Was she going to get a chauffeur after another two days! This house was getting more and more crowded.
