After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!
Chapter 657 GoddaughterAt first, Auntie Xia did have her own impression and opinion about Qian'e. After all, what Qian'e had done in the past was not honorable. If not for the fact that they wanted to repay Xia Jun for his kindness to them, they would not have let Qian'e stay with them.
However, as time passed, she gradually realized that Qian'e was a diligent and capable child. No matter what she was tasked with, she did it fast and was also quick-witted.
She probably did what she did in the past because she was too young and insensitive then. It already caused her to regret it for the rest of her life. Everyone made mistakes during their youth. It was just that some people's mistakes were more serious than others, but everyone would eventually pay the price for their own actions. It was the same thing for Qian'e.
Actually, it did not matter to Auntie Xia whether she had grandchildren or not. As long as her son and daughter-in-law lived a happy life together, she would be fine with it even if they decided to go to the orphanage to adopt a child.
When Auntie Xia saw that Qian'e insisted on being her goddaughter, she shook her head resignedly. It seemed that this girl was not fated to be with her son.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Alright, I'll take you in as my goddaughter then. From now on, come and visit often when you're free. This will always be your home," Auntie Xia said with a smile.
Qian'e had tears in her eyes as she choked up and said, "I will definitely come back to see you."
This was the first time a kind-hearted person had been willing to treat her well after the scandal.
"Don't cry anymore. Pack up your things quickly. Xia Wen will come and pick you up in a while," Auntie Xia said.
Qian'e did not bring much with her when she came and she quickly packed up all her clothes and shoes. The car sent to pick her up arrived soon. When it was time to leave, Auntie Xia reluctantly sent her all the way to the village entrance as if she was sending off her own daughter.
Qian'e looked at the bag in her hand in puzzlement. She had clearly pulled the zipper closed when she left, but for some reason, the bag zipper was half open now.
As soon as she opened the bag, the contents spilled out. There was a pink sweater, a letter and something wrapped in a handkerchief.
There were tattered notes amounting to five dollars in the handkerchief. The auntie and her son had set aside this amount of money out of their meager salaries.
Auntie Xia wrote in her letter that this was her gift to her goddaughter. She did not have much savings and she had enclosed the five dollars for Qian'e to go shopping and buy a nice-looking silk scarf for herself. She wanted Qian'e to have a gift from her.
She did not have much to give Qian'e. She just hoped that Qian'e would take good care of herself, so that her kindness to Qian'e would not be in vain.
She had knitted the sweater during her rest time at night. She had long wanted Qian'e to be part of her family. Although Qian'e did not want to be her daughter-in-law, it was good enough to have Qian'e as her daughter!
Qian'e hugged the sweater tightly in her arms. No one had ever treated her so nicely in her life. Even Zhao Ni had never made clothes for her personally. When she was young, she had always envied other children who wore clothes made by their mothers. She was the only one whose clothes were all bought from the stores.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMany children even deliberately showed off their items in front of her.
The reason that Zhao Ni gave her was that people who made these things themselves were all very poor. Only poor people could not bear to buy clothes, so they had to make their own clothes. Their family was doing well and wealthy, so they did not need to do such things themselves. If Qian'e really wanted it, they could get a tailor to tailor a set of clothes for her.
Qian'e rejected Zhao Ni's suggestion. She knew that Zhao Ni was just trying to brush her off because Zhao Ni wanted to enjoy the life of a rich wife and was unwilling to take care of her family.
Qian'e did not return home directly. Instead, she went to Qiao Mei's courtyard house where Xia Wen and Xia He were waiting for her.
Originally, Xia Wen wanted to meet Qian'e alone, but no matter how Xia He thought about it, she felt that it was too weird. However, if Tan Jing went with Xia Wen, then the fact about Qiao Mei's fake miscarriage would definitely be exposed. In order to avoid suspicion, it was better for her to accompany Xia Wen.
"Elder brother, why isn't Qian'e here yet? Did they not manage to pick her up?" Xia He said out of boredom.
"It's probably because Auntie Xia doesn't want Qian'e to leave. I heard that Auntie Xia likes Qian'e very much and wants her to be her daughter-in-law!" Xia Wen said.
"Auntie Xia has such a sharp eye, yet she likes Qian'e. This means that I have really misunderstood the girl previously. Then let's wait a little longer. She might be here soon." Xia He ran to the door and looked around. She immediately saw Qian'e walking towards her with her luggage.
