After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!-Chapter 2318: Even a Worm Will Turn
Chapter 2318: Even a Worm Will Turn
Editor: Atlas Studios
In a family, the mother played a very important role. For sure, apart from the mother, each and every member of the family was important. However, in this era, it was the norm for men to go out to work while women stayed at home to take care of the children. Therefore, the tone of the children’s learning environment was generally set by their mothers.
All the Xia family’s men joined the army and were not around to take care of the children. Yet, in the end, the children from the three branch families turned out to be quite different. In fact, most of the children’s characteristics overlapped with those of their parents.
Xia Jun often regretted giving his consent to let Xia Guang marry Zhou Hua. At the very least, if Xia Guang had married a gentle and virtuous woman instead, he would not have children who ended up in jail.
“How… how should I deal with this situation?” Tang Hui asked hesitantly.
“Just tell Xia Xing to come and look for me. If there’s money to be made, I won’t say no. You just have to say that you have already spoken to me,” Qiao Mei said nonchalantly.
“Alright, I understand.” With that, Tang Hui left Qiao Mei’s house.
Qiao Mei originally had no intention to get involved, but Xia Jun’s helper had given Qiao Mei a call to say that Xia Jun’s blood pressure had gone up a lot yesterday because of Shao Yin and Xia Xing.
If this matter was left unresolved, then Xia Jun’s health would be affected by his mood swings. He was already advanced in age and his health would not be able to withstand such upheavals. Even if she could offer him divine medicine, he could not eat it every day on a long-term basis. It was still better for a person to live a normal and natural life.
Tang Hui relayed Qiao Mei’s message to Xia Xing over the phone. Xia Xing had already expected this outcome, so he was not surprised at all. Instead, it was Shao Yin who went berserk about it.
“I thought you said that Tang Hui had already agreed! Why does she make it sound like she is only helping to pass the message now! What should we do now! Are we really going to give money to that little b*tch, Qiao Mei?” Shao Yin asked angrily.
“Don’t say such vulgar words. At the very least, you should address her as Third Cousin-in-law,” Xia Xing said with a frown.
Shao Yin looked at Xia Xing in disbelief and said, “Do you think I’m willing to ask her for this favor? If not for your Xia family! For your reputation! For our Xiao Hai’s future! Would I need to go to her! It’s all your fault, you good-for-nothing! If only you’re as capable as Xia Wen! Then I won’t have to go through all these sufferings!”
Ever since the two of them got married, Xia Xing kept having to hear Xia Wen’s name being mentioned in their conversations. Shao Yin kept comparing him to Xia Wen. He really had enough of this!
“Xia Wen! You’re always talking about Xia Wen! Do you like my eldest cousin so much! Then go and marry him! Why are you with me? Oh… it’s not that you don’t want to marry my eldest cousin! You’re not good enough to marry him! Are you as good a person as my eldest cousin-in-law? They’re a match made in heaven! Look at yourself! What does your family have!” Xia Xing pointed at Shao Yin and roared at her.
He vented out all the grievances he kept inside since he got married. He could no longer bear to have to live with his head lowered, like what he was doing now. All his colleagues and relatives had happy and peaceful lives. He was the one who had constant fights with his wife at home.
In the past, he had always thought that everything was Zhou Hua’s fault or Xia Guang’s fault. However, after Xia Guang remarried, Xia Guang and Tang Hui had a very blissful life and were very sweet to each other. He was also doing better at work and willing to work harder than before, but why was his life not as blissful? Why was Shao Yin still so dissatisfied with everything?
“What do you mean? How dare you scold me! Do you believe that my mother and my relatives can come over and beat you up tomorrow!” Shao Yin wept as she shouted.
“Let them come! If your family members don’t come over, then they are cowards! Everyone knows what you and your relatives did back then! It was our Xia family who helped you suppress the news but you people even went around saying that I am infertile! The truth is finally out now! The Xia family is currently doing very well in the capital! Let’s see if your family dares to bully me! There are many women who want to marry me, marry into the Xia family! If you’re so unhappy, then we can get a divorce!” Xia Xing said agitatedly.
He had kept these words buried in his heart for a long time and felt very carefree after saying them. He did not know that he would feel so relaxed after he stopped being so obsessed with these issues.
Shao Yin did not reply for a long time. She had originally thought that Xia Xing was easy to bully, but it never occurred to her that even a worm would turn if forced to a corner! It appeared that she had pushed Xia Xing to his limits. Now that Xia Wen was already married and the rest of the unmarried men in the Xia family did not fancy her at all, she did not have any other choices left.
“Alright, so this is what we’ll do for Xia Hai’s one-month-old celebration banquet. We’ll host it at the cheapest restaurant we can find and do it within our means. Let me say this upfront. I will only invite my family members. Don’t get your family members involved,” Xia Xing said sternly.
“Why not! He’s also my parents’ biological grandson!” Shao Yin said.
