After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1407 Drink Using Bowls

Qiao Mei whispered, “I have secretly gone to take a look just now. Shao Yin isn’t even wearing her underclothes. She’s not drunk at all! She’s very sober! I think this is what the Shao family is really scheming!”

Xia Wen felt like throwing up. How could a woman behave like this? Did she have no sense of shame? Where was her sense of propriety and honor?

“We definitely can’t let such a woman enter the Xia family. Otherwise, there will be endless trouble in the future!” Xia Wen said with a frown.

No matter which Xia family’s son married the Shao family’s daughter, it would be a disaster for everyone in the Xia family. The Shao family was like the Tan family back then! Xia Wen and the rest had to be on guard.

“Why don’t we just send them back home now? This way, Xia Wen won’t be in danger and our family won’t have to fight with the Shao family. Won’t that be killing two birds with one stone!” Liu Fen whispered.

Liu Fen was most afraid of running into trouble without a solution. She was just a housewife. She did not have Xu Lan’s talent and ability, nor did she have Zhou Hua’s inherited unique skills. She was just an ordinary person who did not know much. She could not even cook well and her children used to complain about it in the past.

She did not go to work and Xia Yao was the only one supporting the family. It was tough on Xia Yao to have to work very hard. Her maternal family was not well-off, so she could not offer Xia Yao any help. It was Xia Yao who gave her a life where she did not have to worry about anything. She could not cause too much trouble for Xia Yao, and she also did not want to cause any trouble for her children.

“Even if we let them go now, they will still think of ways to get close to Xia Wen in the future. Even after Shao Yin and Xia Xing get married, it’s still possible that they’ll continue to use similar tricks against Xia Wen,” Xia Fang said.

“Sister-in-law, your Xia Yuan might also become Shao Yin’s target!” Xu Lan reminded her.

Liu Fen suddenly seemed to have some wisdom knocked into her. She had originally thought that she could stay out of it and just burrow her head under the sand. However, for the sake of her children, she had to do her best to fight back too.

“If she dares to touch my Xia Yuan! I’ll fight to the death with her! At most, I’ll die with her!” Liu Fen said through gritted teeth.

“Second Aunt-in-law, don’t get so angry. Xia Yuan is still young. Just try your best not to let Xia Yuan meet anyone from the Shao family,” Xia He comforted her.

“Even if he stays away from them, the Shao family can still ask around about him. If they don’t succeed with Xia Wen, they might target Xia Yuan. After all, the family of the Xia family’s second son is also a good option,” Qiao Mei said.

“It will probably be even more difficult to deal with the matter after Shao Yin marries into the family. We might as well deal with Shao Yin now and let her know she can forget about marrying into the Xia family for the rest of her life,” Xu Lan said firmly.

Xia Wen stood in the corner and watched the group of women discussing these things in an offhand manner. Even if he wanted to say something, he could not say it out loud. He did not expect the Shao family to be so despicable as to play such tricks.

“Eldest Brother, this is a slice of ginseng. I don’t think the Shao family will give up trying today. When the time comes, you can eat this ginseng slice to neutralize the effect of the drug they put in the liquor,” Qiao Mei said.

She could not be completely sure that the drug they were going to put in the liquor was not poisonous. What if the Shao family had other types of drugs with them?

“Don’t worry, I definitely won’t let them have an easy time.” Xia Wen put the ginseng slice under his tongue and walked out of the room with a smile. Qiao Mei and Xia He did not quite understand what Xia Wen meant and followed behind him silently, ready to work with him at any time.

As soon as the three of them appeared, everyone in the Shao family stood up. They did not look too good, seemingly afraid that they would say something wrong next.

“Everyone, take a seat. Don’t be so restrained. Today is a joyous day. Let’s forget about those unhappy things and have a few drinks,” Xia Wen said with a smile.

The Shao family thought that Xia Wen was magnanimous enough not to hold what they had done against them! Only Qiao Mei and Xia He could tell that this was the fake smile that Xia Wen used with outsiders and it was not a genuine smile at all.

“Xia Wen, you’re so magnanimous! Come! I’ll punish myself by drinking three glasses of liquor! With this, I apologize to all of you!” Just as Shao Tu was about to start drinking, Xia Wen stopped him and pointed at the bowls on the table. Xia He immediately understood what he meant and went to the kitchen to take out three to four big bowls and put them down.

“The glasses are really too small. Let’s drink using these. It’s more satisfying to drink with these!” Xia Wen said agitatedly.

“You… are you joking…” Shao Tu said as he looked at the three big bowls in front of him fearfully.
