After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!



Qiao Mei took a gulp nervously and said, "Grandfather… these are all the ginsengs that we have. Erm… there are 100-year-old ginsengs and also 1,000-year-old ginsengs… and… this… 10,000-year-old…"

Qiao Mei's voice became softer and softer until it was almost impossible to hear what she was saying.

Qiao Qiang looked at all the ginsengs in front of him in shock. The existence of a 1,000-year-old ginseng was already hard to believe, but he did not expect there to be a 10,000-year-old ginseng. For a moment, he could not recover from the shock and just stared blankly at the box in front of Qiao Mei. He found it hard to look away from that 10,000-year-old ginseng.

Qiao Mei looked at Qiao Qiang nervously. All she could think about was how to explain the origin of the 10,000-year-old ginseng. Now that they were not in Foshan Village, Qiao Mei spent her days under Qiao Qiang's nose. It was impossible for her to tell him that she had found it somewhere outside, like in the suburbs of the capital. Then again, she also could not tell him about her superpower.

In the event that Qiao Qiang could not accept the truth, he would treat her like a mutant or a monster. By then, Qiao Qiang would probably gradually realize that there were actually many differences between the current Qiao Mei and the past Qiao Mei. If so, Qiao Qiang may be the one who wanted to personally send her to "face the firing squad"!

Just as Qiao Mei was feeling worried and afraid, Qiao Qiang said with a smile, "Aren't these the treasures passed down from our ancestors? Why are you asking me about them? That particular ginseng was definitely left behind by our ancestors. Since you're my only heir, these ginsengs naturally belong to you."

For a person at Qiao Qiang's age, rights and wrongs and truths and lies did not really matter anymore. To him, as long as Qiao Mei was still by his side and she was blissful and happy, everything else was superficial and unimportant.

Qiao Mei looked at Qiao Qiang, feeling touched. She did not expect Qiao Qiang to react this way. Qiao Qiang's love for her was completely unreserved, to the extent that he could even give up his life for her.

As she recalled the memories of the original owner of the body, about how much Qiao Qiang doted on her throughout everything, all of this seemed to make sense. Back then, Qiao Qiang would rather starve and fall sick himself so that he could let Qiao Mei eat her fill and he would always give everything he had to her.

"Yes! These are all passed down from our ancestors. That's right!" Qiao Mei said happily.

After solving this problem, she had nothing more to worry about. Life went on peacefully and soon, it was time for the new year eve celebrations. During this occasion, many people from the different families would come and gather together. Apart from Qiao Mei's family, the other branches of the Xia family would also all be returning to the capital. Therefore, Qiao Mei wanted to discuss with Xu Lan to see if they could do the gathering at her house. The courtyard house was definitely big enough to host the event.

"Elder sister, do you think that Mother will agree with my idea?" Qiao Mei said with a troubled expression.

Even Qiao Mei herself felt that she was asking for too much. After all, she was now the daughter-in-law of the Xia family. It did not seem reasonable for her to ask all the Xia family members to come to her house just because she would feel sad for Qiao Qiang if he had to spend the new year alone.

It would also be awkward for Li Gui to bring her four children to the Xia family residence to celebrate the new year. Although Li Gui was Qiao Mei's biological mother, she had remarried and given birth to another four children who were not blood relatives of the Qiao family. It did not seem suitable for them to go to the Xia family residence.

Xia He did not know how to handle this matter either. Qiao Mei was really caught in a dilemma.

"How about… I go home and talk to Mother about it?" Xia He asked.

Qiao Mei shook her head. It would be more sincere for her to raise such an issue herself. Otherwise, it could lead to unnecessary misunderstandings and then it would become even more difficult to deal with.

"Let me think about it," Qiao Mei said disconsolately as she lay back on the rocking chair.

The matter could be settled easier if it only affected Xia Jun, Xia Mao and the immediate family. However, she had to take into account the fact that Second Uncle and Third Uncle were in town as well as their family members. Later on, Eldest Aunt Xia Xiu and Youngest Aunt Xia Fang would also be coming back. There were still many extended family members who had not met Qiao Mei yet. If they were asked to come to Qiao Mei's house for the new year celebrations, it might leave a bad impression on them.

She did not expect life to become so troublesome after getting married. Even if Qiao Qiang was willing to stay in the backyard house alone for the new year, it was not acceptable to her. She must find a way to solve this problem.

Just as Qiao Mei was at her wits' end, there was a sudden knock on the main door as it opened. Xu Lan walked into Qiao Mei's house with numerous bags. Qiao Mei supported her stomach and slowly walked towards the door, looking at the scene in front of her in disbelief.

Xia He was also shocked by Xu Lan's actions. Xu Lan had even mobilized the family's security guards to assist her. There were another three cars behind hers and each car was also filled to the brim with stuff.
