After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!
1202 Paying Mother-in-law a Visit
Tan Jing sneered and said, "Why can't I come over? Xia Wen and I are not divorced yet! I'm still the Xia family's daughter-in-law! Why can't I come here! Or… is it because the occupants don't want to see me and ask you to stop me?"
"No, but owing to the special circumstances now, I have to go in and report it no matter who the visitor is. Even if Xia Wen is here, he also can't just walk in. I seek your understanding on this," Luo Yu said respectfully.
"Is that so? Then what about Qiao Mei? Do you need to report it if Qiao Mei comes here?" Tan Jing asked suddenly.
"Of course. It applies to everyone," Luo Yu replied without any hesitation.
After hearing this reply, Tan Jing calmed down a lot. Luo Yu was stating the facts and he did not lie to Tan Jing. There was no need for him to lie to her at all. Currently, he would immediately get a headache whenever he saw any member of the Tan family. The bright red paint at the neighborhood entrance from yesterday's incident was still not completely cleaned up yet!
He and his team had been punished for the incident. Not only did they have to clean up the mess, they had to undergo physical training as punishment. They only returned to the dormitory to rest at three in the morning. They had the Tan family to thank for all this.
He already planned to avoid any Tan family member in the future!
Luo Yu entered the house and asked Xu Lan for her permission before letting Tan Jing in. Tan Jing was the type of person who bullied the weak and feared the strong. She knew that Luo Yu would not speak rudely to her, so she behaved threateningly and spoke maliciously to Luo Yu. However, she was a totally different person when she saw Xu Lan.
After all, Xu Lan was still the matriarch of the Xia family. As long as Xu Lan issued an instruction, Tan Jing's divorce would be a foregone conclusion. There would not be any more possibility for reconciliation!
By the same logic, she had come round this time to beg Xu Lan to persuade Xia Wen to maintain the relationship and not get a divorce. She thought that the older generation would usually persuade couples to reconcile rather than break up? If Xia Wen got a divorce, it would also be a scandal for the Xia family. Xia He had no choice but to get a divorce due to the circumstances she was in. If Xia Wen got a divorce right on the heels of that, surely that would attract criticism?
"Mother, what are you doing at home? Have you eaten?" Tan Jing asked with a smile.
"If you have something to say, just say it. I don't have a lot of time to spare right now," Xu Lan said coldly.
"Are you going to the art troupe tomorrow? Then I have really come at the wrong time," Tan Jing said apologetically.
"Of course not. I'm already retired now. What does the art troupe still need me to do personally? Qiao Mei will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. As her eldest sister-in-law, it's fine if you can't remember anything, but you don't even know how to express concern for her. Your mother is more diligent than you when it comes to going to the hospital," Xu Lan said.
"My mother? My mother has gone to visit Qiao Mei?" Tan Jing asked in shock.
"Of course. I also don't know why. Perhaps your mother also likes Qiao Mei. Otherwise, why would she visit Qiao Mei every day?" Xu Lan said casually.
She did not know much and had only heard about it from the Xia family's staff. Whether it was one day or one week, Jiang Yi had definitely visited Qiao Mei. So what if she mentioned more days? It did not make any difference.
Tan Jing felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife. She could not believe that Jiang Yi would go and visit Qiao Mei. She did not even feel so sad when Jiang Yi chased her out of the house when she was young.
Back then, she left home alone and started working. She never had enough money or time to eat proper meals. It was considered good enough if she could have one meal a day. As time passed, that became the root cause of Tan Jing's illnesses.
One day, she had such bad gastric pains that she could not take it anymore and made a phone call home. Jiang Yi only said nonchalantly, "It won't kill you. What's there to be worried about?" After that, she hung up. From then on, Tan Jing never relied on her family for anything.
Yet Jiang Yi actually went to visit Qiao Mei! How ironic.
"You still haven't told me why you're here?" Xu Lan asked impatiently.
"I… Can't I come and visit you? I haven't come over for a long time," Tan Jing said.
There was nothing wrong with a daughter-in-law visiting her mother-in-law. Xu Lan was unable to pinpoint anything wrong, but she just did not want to see Tan Jing. Currently, she had to suppress the anger in her heart while talking to Tan Jing. If Tan Jing still kept talking incessantly, she might lose her temper soon and that would become an uncomfortable situation for everyone.
