After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

871 Borrowing Clothes

She had no desire to see Qiao Mei at all. Every time she looked at Qiao Mei’s big belly, she would feel annoyed and wish that something would happen to Qiao Mei. It would be best if Qiao Mei could not give birth to the babies!

“Are you going or not!” Tan Jing said in exasperation.

“No. If your parents want to move out, then give me a call and I’ll make the arrangements. Otherwise, there’s no need to talk about this matter.” After saying that, Xia Wen lay down and fell asleep.

Tan Jing already knew of the incident when Jiang Yi had gone to cause trouble for Qiao Mei. She even thought that Jiang Yi had done a good job this time. She heard that Qiao Mei was so angry that she almost had a fall.

Although Jiang Yi did not achieve anything after causing a scene the last time, it was still a good thing to make Qiao Mei angry.

If the matter regarding the house remained unresolved, the Tan family members would continue to call her every day to hound her. Moreover, Jiang Yi said that she only wanted to live in Qiao Mei’s house. She did not want to live anywhere else.

After all, although renting any house could solve their problem, their family did not have any money at the moment. If they did not have money, how could they rent a house from someone else? Even if that person was willing to accept an IOU like Qiao Mei, the interest rate would definitely not be as cost-effective as Qiao Mei’s.

Who knew if their family might become rich in the future! If they became rich in the future, they could even buy the house. It would be easier to discuss the issue if they lived in Qiao Mei’s house. They were “family”. Even if they did not pay rent to Qiao Mei, she would not be so heartless as to chase them all away. She would definitely still need to show them some respect.

The purpose of living in a relative’s house was to ensure that they would not be chased away. They could also be late with the rent.

Moreover, Tan Jing was also up to no good. Even if Tan Bao, Tan Shi and Tan Yue all had their own rooms and Tan Bo and Jiang Yi occupied a room, there would still be a few rooms left in that house.

At that time, she and Xia Wen could also go there to live. The Tan family members were a very noisy bunch to live with, but she would endure it for the sake of a big house.

Initially, she thought that Xia Wen might be able to get a big house from the workplace unit after he was promoted this time, something similar to Xu Lan’s house. However, she did not expect the higher-ups to say that Xia Wen still needed to work for 10 years first!

A period of 10 years! By then, she would be so old that she would not be able to walk properly! How could she wait for 10 years?

She had to make plans for her future. In order to live in a big house, she must work hard to convince Xia Wen that she must “rent” Qiao Mei’s big courtyard house!

The next day, Qiao Yu went to work as usual. She did not sleep well last night and her mind was filled with thoughts of looking for Qiao Mei and Li Gui. Yesterday, she walked around in the snow a few times but still could not find Li Gui.

She still had to save some money to buy a new cotton jacket. When she came from Foshan Village, she did not bring anything with her. Actually, she never even had a cotton jacket before. During her rest day, she had gone to the mall to take a look. A cotton jacket would cost 20 dollars!

She did not have that much money now, but if she did not buy clothes for the winter, she would really freeze to death in the capital. Fortunately, they were required to wear their uniforms in the factory and it was warm enough.

Sister Li only took half a day off and came to work as usual the next day. When she saw Qiao Yu, she did not say a single word of greeting and also did not speak to the people around her. She just quietly went about her work.

Qiao Yu was still in a daze today. She did not do much the entire morning and her mind was filled with thoughts of clothes.

“Sister Wang, can you lend me your cotton jacket?” Qiao Yu whispered.

“Ah… alright, you can wear it,” Sister Wang said after a moment of hesitation.

During the lunch break, everyone gathered together to talk about this matter. Why was Qiao Yu borrowing a cotton jacket? Moreover, she only wanted to borrow clothes from Sister Wang. In the entire dormitory, only Sister Wang’s cotton jacket was new. It was a branded item that her daughter had bought from a big shopping mall.

Sister Wang herself could not even bear to wear it!

“Sister Wang, don’t you feel a sense of heartache from lending her your clothes just like that?” Sister Li said as she ate.

Sister Wang sighed resignedly. She did not have Sister Li’s guts. Qiao Yu had a powerful backer and could not be offended! Anyway, it was just a piece of clothing and she was only lending it out, not giving it away.

“What can I do? She’s not shy about asking. What else can I say?” Sister Wang said dejectedly.

“Did that rich niece of hers introduce a boyfriend to her? Otherwise, why does she go out after work every day?” Sister Li asked.

For the past few days, Qiao Yu had been coming back very late. Sometimes, she would even come back in the wee hours of the morning. She kept asking them to leave the door open for her, but no one knew what she was doing. Qiao Yu only said that she was going to visit her relatives.
