After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1370 Unfilial

“We don’t have any other intentions in coming to visit. We just want to see how you’re doing here. Since you have guests here, we’ll go back now. We’ll leave you to chat,” Qiao Mei said.

“Come and sit down. That’s not what my younger sister meant. These girls are still young and insensible. Please don’t mind them.” Shao Le quickly stood up and wanted to give up their seats to Qiao Mei and Xia He.

Xia He and Qiao Mei looked at each other. It was difficult to reject such kindness, so they reluctantly sat down to hear what else the Shao family members had to say.

“Third Cousin-in-law, I haven’t seen you for a while and you’ve become prettier!” Shao Yin said with a smile.

Qiao Mei nodded reluctantly. She really hated dealing with such situations. Even when she was in the Xia family residence, she had never felt so awkward.

Seeing that Qiao Mei did not say anything, Shao Yin turned around to talk to Xia He. She did not expect Xia He to ignore her and look at the sky instead. Xia He found everything else interesting as long as she need not look at Shao Yin.

“I haven’t made introductions yet. This is my elder sister, Shao Le. This is my older cousin, Bian Jiu. The two of them are here to chat with me,” Shao Yin said.

“So they have been staying at your place during this period of time?” Xia He turned her head and asked curiously.

“That’s right! Xia Xing is very considerate. He knows that I don’t have many friends in the capital, so he specially lets them come and accompany me,” Shao Yin said without hiding her look of disappointment.

“The longer you stay here, the more friends you will have,” Qiao Mei said.

“Then can I go and look for you often? The last time I saw Xia Fan and Xia Xing, I really liked them very much. I’ve been thinking about them all this time! I really like children and I like to play with them,” Shao Yin said as she looked at Qiao Mei expectantly.

Qiao Mei lowered her eyes slightly. During the Spring Festival, Qiao Mei had seen how Shao Yin behaved towards Xia Fan and Xia Xing. Her reaction was just lukewarm and she did not look like she liked children at all. If she really liked children, she would be like Xia Wen, who was always trying to find time to go to Qiao Mei’s place to play with the children. Xia Wen spent a lot of his monthly salary on stuff for the two children.

According to Xia Wen, he was currently single and there was no point in putting aside so much money. He might as well spend his money on the two little babies.

Shao Yin had an ulterior motive for saying all this. She had failed at her attempt to work in government services to get close to Xia Wen, so now she was having designs on Qiao Mei’s children. Such wishful thinking. She should just continue to daydream!

“The children are still too young. It’s not good to have too many people in the house. Let’s wait until the children are older. In any case, you’ll be the Xia family’s daughter-in-law soon. We all live in the capital, so there’s no hurry,” Qiao Mei rejected tactfully.

At the mention of the future, Shao Yin could not help but cover her face and cry. Bian Jiu immediately said, “Girl, why are you crying?”

“I… I just feel a little sad that my parents can’t come and stay with me. This house is only big enough for me and Xia Xing’s family. I can’t take care of my parents. I’m really… really unfilial!” Shao Yin said as she cried.

Xia He wished she could go forward and give Shao Yin two tight slaps. She had not even married into the Xia family and she was already coming up with some much nonsense. Once she married into the Xia family, there was no telling what earth-shattering things she could do. She stared at Shao Yin and said sternly, “Brother Xing did not grow up by his parents’ side. Are you saying that Brother Xing is unfilial?”

“No! That’s not what I mean! Second Cousin, you’ve really misunderstood me!” Shao Yin said as she looked at Xia He with a pale face.

Qiao Mei sighed resignedly. It seemed that what Eldest Brother said back then was right. She should not have bought so many houses. No! She should not have bought so many big houses. Shao Yin did not manage to get a house from Grandfather, so now she was raising this issue in front of her.

However, Qiao Mei could not put all her money in the bank. The massive amount of money would have attracted the attention of the counter staff. Even though she had earned the money through legal channels, it was still better to keep a low profile. After all, it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble.

“Cousin-in-law, if you think that this house is too small, you can tell Brother Xing and ask him to talk to my eldest brother. My eldest brother can help with issues regarding the house. I believe that with Brother Xing’s salary in the future, he can easily afford to rent a bigger house,” Xia He said casually.

Xia Xing’s salary was not even as much as what Xia He made. He only earned 60 dollars a month and could barely support his family. The rent for the house that Shao Yin was living in now was already 10 dollars a month.
