After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!
1210 Embarrassing
"Elder Sister, why don't you ask Deng Fan to come over and have some fun with us?" Qiao Mei sat beside Xia He and whispered into her ear.
"Shoo, shoo, shoo! Why should he be here! How can an outsider like him attend our family gathering?" Xia He said angrily.
However, Xia He's ears were so red that they were the same color as the sunset outside. She was clearly feeling shy!
"But when you were in trouble, he helped a lot! In the end, Deng Fan was the one who resolved this matter. You can't just forget about him like this," Qiao Mei said as she pouted.
"Of course I know that! But it's not good to invite him to your children's one-month-old celebration. We haven't even confirmed our relationship yet! At that time, this house will be full of our relatives and it will be so awkward for him to be here," Xia He said earnestly.
Xia He could not go against her own conscience and say that she did not like Deng Fan at all. She felt that Deng Fan was a good person, but she also felt that if she really got together with him, it would hurt him.
Deng Fan could be considered to be from a scholarly family and was still single after all these years. It was said that Deng Fan's parents had a very loving relationship their entire lives and that Deng Fan had a very blissful life. He had a good personality and was also very knowledgeable. How could a previously married woman like her be worthy of such a good person like him? The neighbors would gossip about Deng Fan!
The Deng family had never received a bad comment from anyone. If they were criticized because of her, she would not be able to take it.
"Then what about Brother Luo?" Qiao Mei asked next.
"There's even less of a relationship between Brother Luo and me. He's at most my older brother, just like Xia Wen. Don't talk about these things to Mother. She likes to listen to such gossip the most. If she finds out, she might go to the art troupe to try and do something!" Xia He reminded Qiao Mei.
"Oh my! I know, I know. I'm just asking. Then you must update me if there's any progress! Otherwise, I'll go and snitch on you~" Qiao Mei said smugly.
"Sure, sure, sure! Take it that I'm scared of you!" Xia He said helplessly.
While the Xia family was in a harmonious and happy mood, the Tan family was in chaos. The entire family had been arguing in the house for an entire day!
"How do you get yourself sent back by the Xia family! Isn't it embarrassing! Get lost as far as you can! I find it unlucky to see you at home! I don't even know what people will gossip about me when I go out in the future!" Tan Hu said angrily.
Tan Jing sneered and said, "Hmph, you must feel uncomfortable that no one is paying off your gambling debts for you. What has it got to do with you whether I feel embarrassed or not?"
"How can you talk to me like that! Mom! Can't you discipline her!" Tan Hu said as he pointed at Tan Jing.
"Tan Jing! Hurry up and think of a way to go back! How can our family support you! Besides, your father needs the Xia family so that he can get his medicine! If you're not in the Xia family, how can we get the medicine?" Jiang Yi said anxiously.
Hearing the mention of medicine, Tan Jing perked up. She looked at Jiang Yi in puzzlement and asked, "What medicine?"
Jiang Yi took out the bottle with a little bit of liquid left and said, "This one! I don't believe that you don't know. Don't pretend to be ignorant. Isn't this the 'divine medicine' from the Xia family? It can even revive the dead. Even if you are divorced, you have to hurry back and ask Qiao Mei for a few more bottles!"
Tan Jing could tell at a glance that this was definitely not the "divine medicine" which Qiao Mei had. She had even drunk that medicinal wine before and the color should be light green at the very least. It was impossible for it to be transparent and colorless like the liquid in the bottle now. It was obvious that Qiao Mei had lied to Jiang Yi.
Tan Hu and Tan Bao could no longer sit still at the side. The two of them were veteran racketeers, so they were aware of the power of the Xia family's "divine medicine". Moreover, many people had even asked them if they knew the price!
"Mom! Do you still have any more of this!" Tan Hu asked with wide eyes.
"What do you want it for? This is for your father's treatment! Don't you have even a shred of conscience!" Jiang Yi said.
"Do you know how much this is worth? A tiny bottle is worth 1,000 dollars! What you have in the bottle can be sold for 3,000 dollars!" Tan Hu said.
"What!" Jiang Yi quickly held the glass bottle with both hands, worried that she would accidentally break it. She carefully placed it on the brick bed and only let go after confirming that it was safe.
Tan Bo was also so shocked that he sat up from the bed. All his illness and pain seemed to have disappeared in an instant. The entire family, except for Tan Jing, stared intently at the small bottle on the brick bed.
