After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

784 Ungrateful Little Ingrate

Qiao Mei did not argue with Zhao Liang. It did not matter what he did as long as he would take over the pig.

Seeing that Zhao Liang was busy with the matters in the village, Qiao Mei did not want to disturb him. After dealing with all house matters, it was time to make arrangements for the matters in the capital. When she reached home, Qiao Mei quickly gave Xia Fang a phone call.

Even if she did not make the call, Xia Fang was anxiously going to call her soon. It was fast approaching her delivery due date. If she did not go to the capital soon, once it snowed, the snowy road would make the journey to the capital even more arduous.

“Aunt, did you miss me~” Qiao Mei said sweetly.

Xia Fang snorted coldly. Qiao Mei had been away from the capital for so long and had only written her a letter and sent her some gifts. This was the first time she had called!

After all, she doted on Qiao Mei the most. This heartless girl only thought about calling her now.

“So you still know you have to call me. Those I don’t know better, I’d think that you’re a very busy person! It’s as if you don’t want to come back to see me again,” Xia Fang complained.

“Aunt, don’t be angry. See, I’m calling you now. I’ll be returning to the capital in a while. By then, you can scold me however you want!” Qiao Mei said.

“When are you coming back?” Xia Fang asked.

“Aunt, you just said that you don’t care about me. Why are you asking me when I’m going back now? You still care about me, right! I just know that you’re the best!” Qiao Mei said shamelessly.

Xia Fang really could not do anything about Qiao Mei. She had met Qiao Qiang many times and wondered how someone with Qiao Qiang’s personality could have brought up a sneaky girl like Qiao Mei.

“I don’t care about you! I’m just hoping that you’ll come back quickly so that I can teach you a lesson in person,” Xia Fang explained.

Qiao Mei did not believe what Xia Fang said at all. Previously, Xia He had told her during their phone calls that in the past few months, Xia Fang had repeatedly gone through the case studies of surgeries regarding delivery of twins both domestically and overseas. She had studied all kinds of major and minor emergencies very seriously and read all the materials until late at night every day, worried that she would not be able to cope with any emergencies when the time came.

She had always been dealing with singly born children and rarely delivered multiple children at one go. Recently, she had even consulted her own professor and picked up a lot of new knowledge.

“Alright, then just wait for me to go back! I won’t talk to you anymore, Aunt. I have to call eldest brother and ask him for help,” Qiao Mei said.

“Alright, go and do what you need to do! I’ll deal with you when you come back!” After saying that, Xia Fang hung up and continued to study the materials.

Qiao Mei put a tick next to Xia Fang’s name listed on her notebook. She had many phone calls to make today and there were also many things to do. The phone bill was probably going to go off the charts as they were all long-distance calls.

After flipping through the phone book, Qiao Mei realized that she had forgotten where she put Xia Wen’s phone number. At that time, she had clearly recorded down everyone’s phone numbers. How could she have missed out on Xia Wen?

After searching for a long time, she finally found a note with Xia Wen’s number written on it in a box that was used to keep needles and thread.

The phone rang for a long time before someone picked up. The person who picked up the phone was not Xia Wen, but Tan Jing.

“Hello,” Tan Jing said politely.

“Sister-in-law! It’s me! Is eldest brother at home? I have something to discuss with him,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Tan Jing glanced at Xia Wen, who was reading in the bedroom, and said to Qiao Mei, “He’s not. You can just tell me.”

“I’ll be home in a few days. I just want to ask him if the courtyard house is ready. I also want to buy another courtyard house and wonder if he has any good recommendations. Somewhere near my courtyard house is fine,” Qiao Mei said.

Tan Jing paid no attention and turned a deaf ear to everything, completely ignoring what Qiao Mei was saying. Whatever Qiao Mei said, she would reply affirmatively and say that she had noted it down. In reality, she did not take note of anything at all.

“Sister-in-law, I’ll have to trouble you and eldest brother,” Qiao Mei said.

“It’s fine! This is just a small matter. Don’t worry. If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up.” Tan Jing hung up the phone in satisfaction. When she turned around, she saw Xia Wen standing quietly behind her.

“Who’s on the phone just now? What matters are you handling?” Xia Wen asked in confusion.
