After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

However, Zhou Hua refused to believe it. She insisted that there was something buried under the siheyuan courtyard house, and that those were very valuable treasures. Zhou Hua had also told Zhou Luo about this, which was why Zhou Luo kept harping on this issue.

The Zhou family had been tomb raiders for generations, so they naturally knew the value of such things. Treasures like these were even more valuable than the house itself! One family heirloom could be enough to feed everyone in their family for half their lives! Even if they did not get a share of the house, they could not possibly not get even a single cent!

"What is it? Is there anything buried under our house?" Qiao Mei asked as she looked at Zhou Luo in confusion.

"Qiao Mei, stop pretending. There are no outsiders here. Tell the truth. You may be able to hide the truth from others, but how can you hide it from me?" Zhou Luo said confidently.

"I don't know what I'm supposed to be hiding from you, Auntie. You should just say what you mean. Since you already say that we're one family, then don't scare me. I'm very timid and easily frightened!" Qiao Mei said weakly. She looked completely different from the person who stood up so forcefully for the Xia family yesterday.

"Wu Min was previously the daughter of a landlord and the family was very rich. How could she not have left anything behind? There must be something buried underground! We won't hold it against you if you present it out earlier and share it with everyone. Otherwise, if we're the ones who dig it out later, then it won't look good on anyone!" Zhou Luo said.

"Auntie Zhou, you don't trust the government? Or you don't trust the He family?" Qiao Mei looked at Zhou Luo and asked seriously.

Zhou Luo stood up and pointed at Qiao Mei, saying, "I'm talking to you about your house. Why are you talking to me about the government and the He family!"

"Back then, the He family said that we had hidden something underground and asked the government to send people to come and dig up the entire house inside and out. They even pried open the bricks in the house and dug three feet into the ground, but they did not find anything in the end. Can it be that Auntie Zhou is more capable than these government officials? If you're so capable, then I'll get Eldest Brother to talk to the relevant departments and ask them to hire a talent like you!" Qiao Mei said excitedly.

"That's true. I still have to thank Sister-in-law for recommending such a talent to me. Why didn't I realize it in the past?" Xia Wen snickered.

It looked as if Qiao Mei was really feeling happy for Zhou Luo. In fact, Qiao Mei knew that Zhou Luo was not an honest person as well. There were also many treasures hidden under her family's house, things that had been stolen and passed down by their ancestors. If Qiao Mei arranged for people from the government to dig up the treasures beneath Zhou Luo's house, Zhou Luo's losses would outweigh her gains!

"You! You little b*tch, how dare you have designs on my house!" Zhou Luo pointed at Qiao Mei and said angrily.

Xia Jun smacked the table angrily and shouted, "Who do you think you are! How dare a person like you behave so atrociously in our house! We're already done here. Xia Guang, you can get lost and take your family members with you! What a useless thing! Don't be an eyesore here!"

"Father, do you only care about the families of Eldest Brother and Second Brother?" Xia Guang asked as he looked at Xia Jun in disbelief. Even at the last moment, his own father still wanted to treat him like this?

Xia He really could not take it anymore. There were some things that she needed to get off her chest. She said unhappily, "Third Uncle, you should speak with some conscience. Who helped your Xia Xing get rid of those clingy in-laws last night? Who helped Xia Xing avoid being imprisoned? Who made it possible for your entire family to return to the capital? Were all these done by the immortals from the heavens?"

"Third Uncle, now that you're in such a situation, it's time for you to think about who are the ones helping you and who are the ones hurting you. Who's the one who caused the situation today? For us children from the eldest son's family, which one of us hasn't relied on our own efforts to achieve what we have today? If we have had even the slightest bit of help from our father and grandfather, then let us die a horrible death!" Xia Wen raised three fingers and made a cursed oath.

For a moment, Xia Guang did not know what to do. However, even up to now, he still did not feel that it was his fault or the fault of anyone in his family. He blamed everything on Xia Jun and Xia Mao.

This was the kind of person he was. He always felt that he was the most miserable person in the world and that there was no one in a worse situation than him. He blamed everything on others so that he could feel much better.

From now on, they would have nothing to do with one another. There was nothing the rest of them could do for Xia Guang even if he clung onto them. Xia Guang would have to suffer alone henceforth.

Zhou Luo had thought that she would be able to get at least 50,000 dollars from the family getting split up. She did not expect not getting even a single cent and even ended up getting a scolding.
