After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!
Chapter 611 What An IdiotZhao Liang was still trying to catch his breath. He stood in the courtyard and stammered, "Come… come with me quickly! Xia Zhe… Xia Zhe, he…"
When Qiao Mei heard that it was about Xia Zhe, she grabbed onto Zhao Liang's shoulder and asked, "What's wrong with Xia Zhe!"
She used so much strength that she almost crushed Zhao Liang's shoulder.
"Ouch! Be more gentle! Xia Zhe is fine… but he's looking for you. He said he'll call again in half an hour. Come with me quickly," Zhao Liang said in pain.
When Qiao Mei realized what she did, she immediately let go of Zhao Liang and gave him an embarrassed smile.
Zhao Liang did not have the time to care about the pain in his shoulder. Once Qiao Mei hopped on the vehicle, he rushed towards the brigade office. It was quite a distance away from Qiao Mei's house and it took them 20 minutes to get there.
Xia Zhe called up the brigade office at the agreed time.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWang Qin picked up the call out of habit and said emotionlessly, "Hello, Foshan Village Brigade. What's the matter?"
Hearing Wang Qin's voice, Xia Zhe was stunned for a moment before saying, "I'm Xia Zhe. Isn't Uncle Zhao around?"
Wang Qin immediately perked up. She would not miss out on anything that was related to Qiao Mei. Ever since this girl married Xia Zhe, she seemed to have become a different person. Not only did she become beautiful and capable, but she was also much smarter than before.
This must have something to do with Xia Zhe!
Moreover, ever since then, Qiao Mei had been finding fault with her and making her feel irritable. First, it was about the house that belonged to Qiao Mei's mother, Li Gui. Then, it was about growing bean sprouts, and now Qiao Mei even caused her to be disgraced!
Although it was Qiao Zhuang's own fault that he was criticized during the open meeting not long ago and he brought it on himself, Wang Qin was also humiliated because of this matter and there was a lot of gossip everywhere she went.
Some people said that she had a vicious heart and married off her husband's younger sister to a dirty old man. There were also people who said that she sold the girls in her family for her own personal gain, and that she would even sell her own daughter when the girl grew up.
People said so many nasty things. She could only ignore them all. Otherwise, if she went around arguing with everyone, she would be angered to death sooner or later.
"Zhao Liang is not around. If there's any issue, you can just tell me. I'll pass the message to him later," Wang Qin said.
"I'm just calling to ask about Qiao Mei," Xia Zhe said.
"Qiao Mei… I'm afraid it's not convenient for Qiao Mei to talk to you now," Wang Qin said hesitantly.
Xia Zhe was not in the village anyway. As long as she kept this matter a secret, who would know that Xia Zhe had called Qiao Mei?
She had not had an easy time lately! So Qiao Mei could forget about having one as well! Xia Zhe was Qiao Mei's husband, so he could also forget about having an easy time!
"Inconvenient? Why?" Xia Zhe asked curiously.
"Qiao Mei hasn't been feeling well recently. I heard that she went to the village clinic for treatment," Wang Qin said.
Of course, Xia Zhe would not fall for it so easily. He had just made an appointment with Zhao Liang to call again in half an hour. If something had happened at Qiao Mei's place, how could Zhao Liang not know about it?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWang Qin must be lying to him. Since she wanted to lie, he would continue with the act.
"What! Qiao Mei is at the clinic! Is it serious?" Xia Zhe said anxiously.
Wang Qin curled her lips slyly and said, "Sigh, I don't know what the doctor says, but Qiao Mei is staying there now. I hear that it will cost a lot of money and that she needs to take medicine for a long time to protect the child!"
Many men in the village went out to work in other places. Every month, when they sent money to their families, they would first go to their local post office to send it via a telegram to the post office in this area. The telegrams would then be forwarded to the various villages and the villagers would go personally to collect the money.
This way, not only could one ensure that the money would not get lost, but one could also ensure that one would be able to find the responsible party should there be any losses.
Xia Zhe used to send Qiao Mei his salary. Wang Qin was the village accountant and she had secretly taken a look at the receipt. It was 120 dollars a month! That was more than 1,000 dollars a year!
If Xia Zhe sent over Qiao Mei's "medical expenses" this time and she secretly intercepted it, she would be able to make up for the money she owed the village! She could even earn a lot from it!
"A lot of money? Then she must be very sick. I can't go back now. I'll get ready to send the money now," Xia Zhe said.
Wang Qin did not expect things to go so smoothly. Xia Zhe looked very capable, but he was actually just an idiot! How could he be deceived by such a simple plot!
