After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1211 Discover a Scam

“Xiao Hu, are you lying to me? Is this stuff really so valuable? Are you just playing a trick on me!” Jiang Yi asked suspiciously.

“Of course it’s true, why would I lie to you! Tan Bao also knows about this!” Tan Hu said.

Tan Bao quickly echoed, “That’s right, people are offering 2,000 dollars for a small bottle now! Second Brother and I discussed it previously but we were too embarrassed to talk to the Xia family, so we didn’t mention this matter.”

Although everyone had heard of the Xia family’s “divine medicine”, they only knew that He Ning was in possession of it and no one knew whether anyone else had obtained the Xia family’s “divine medicine”. It was really something that was priceless!

Since no one could find out anything from the Xia family, everyone set their sights on these two ignorant and incompetent brothers from the Tan family. However, no one had expected that these two men were cowards who did not even dare to approach the Xia family at all. They did not even dare to think about this matter.

The two of them were just tyrants at home. Once they went out of the house, they became wusses and did not even dare to retort when others shouted at them. As Qiao Mei had described, the two of them combined were not even half as good as Su Yang!

Jiang Yi turned to look at Tan Jing. That woman who came to the house earlier said that everyone in the Xia family had a share, so Tan Jing must have a share too.

“Where’s your share of the ‘divine medicine’?” Jiang Yi asked.

Tan Hu and Tan Bao looked at Tan Jing expectantly. It appeared that their source of wealth was Tan Jing.

“I drank it,” Tan Jing said honestly.

Tan Hu went forward angrily and slapped Tan Jing. Just one slap was not enough for him to vent his anger and he wanted to continue hitting her. Jiang Yi did not stop him and just let him bully Tan Jing. Tan Bao pretended not to see anything and lowered his head silently.

Tan Jing was weak to begin with and was no match for Tan Hu at all. After he slapped her a few times, she was already bleeding from the corner of her mouth and had swollen cheeks. She was not angry, nor did she cry or feel aggrieved. After returning to the Tan family, she had long known that such a day would come. It was her destiny and it was just a matter of time.

“What a piece of trash! Why do you drink medicine when you’re not sick! Do you know how precious this medicine is! Is it something that a cheap life like yours deserves?” Tan Hu said angrily.

“In any case, I have nothing to do with the Xia family now. Even if you beat me to death, you won’t be able to get the ‘divine medicine’. Moreover, whatever you have in that bottle is fake. You’ve all been deceived by Qiao Mei and you still don’t know it!” Tan Jing said as she looked at them mockingly.

“Fake? How can it be? Your father feels quite well after drinking it! What evidence do you have to prove that this is fake?” Jiang Yi asked.

“At the very least, I’ve drank it before. This ‘divine medicine’ is actually a type of medicinal wine and it’s light green in color. The darker the color, the better the medicinal effect. Back then, Xia Mao was able to be revived after drinking the light green type, so you can imagine how powerful the dark green type can be,” Tan Jing said.

Tan Jing only knew all this from hearsay. Although the medicinal wine which Qiao Mei gave Xia Mao was indeed light-colored, it was not light green but pale golden. No outsider got close enough to see it clearly, so these were all rumors.

Even if Qiao Mei filled glass bottles with liquor and put them out for sale, there would definitely be an overwhelming number of people coming to the Xia family house to buy them. The key information they had was that the liquid was supposed to be a light color, but they did not know what color it was or even if it was supposed to be colored.

“You wretched girl! Why didn’t you say so earlier! You only tell us when we have almost finished it! What if it’s poison!” Jiang Yi said furiously.

“This is just a bottle of water. It won’t harm the two of you. What’s there to be afraid of,” Tan Jing said.

Now that the “divine medicine” was fake and it was no longer possible for Tan Jing to return to the Xia family, it appeared that Jiang Yi would have to be the one to go and look for Qiao Mei. Previously, Qiao Mei did not want to help them with their request for a house because it was really too expensive. Now, it was only a matter of a bottle of “divine medicine”. It should be no skin off her back, so why would she be unwilling to give it to them?

Based on Jiang Yi’s calculations, it should be time for Qiao Mei to hold the one-month-old celebration for her children. The next few days would be the perfect timing to pay them a visit! The men in the Tan family were all burly and brash and they would only cause trouble if they went. Jiang Yi was afraid to go alone, so she asked her youngest child, Tan Yue, to accompany her.

“Then… I’m not going to go there for nothing! You have to give me some benefits,” Tan Yue said.

“Have I brought you up for nothing! How dare you ask me for benefits? You’re really too shameless!” Jiang Yi said angrily.
