After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!
1457 We Are a Family
"Can Eldest Brother handle it alone? I heard that Song Dan's friend is not an ordinary person," Deng Fan said with a frown.
He had found out more about the situation from Zou Ming just now. This Du Miao was not even afraid of the police and it was as if nothing could suppress him. He did not know if Xia Wen could deal with that man.
Qiao Mei raised her eyebrows and said, "Do you not trust Eldest Brother, or do you not trust me, or do you not trust the Xia family?"
When Deng Fan heard this, he laughed relaxedly and said, "I don't know if I should feel apologetic or grateful now."
He was originally just an ordinary person who lived a normal life. It was already a blessing for him if his parents lived a long and healthy life. He had no intention to curry favor with the Xia family. He only wanted to take care of Xia He in whatever way he could.
Actually, when he and Xia He were talking about getting married, Xia Mao had met him in private once. He would never forget that experience for the rest of his life.
Xia Mao took out the title deeds for two properties and a bankbook with 10,000 dollars in the account. Xia Mao did not want Xia He to live a hard life with Deng Fan. In addition, Xia He had already been married once and her reputation was already tainted. Although the Deng family was not a prominent family, they were still a good family with a clean background.
Xia Mao just wanted Xia He and Deng Fan to live a more comfortable life. It was not his intention to look down on Deng Fan. Deng Fan knew what Xia Mao was thinking and rejected him politely. Based on his current capability, it was not a problem for him to support Xia He. Even if Xia He did not go to work and just stayed at home, Deng Fan was still able to support Xia He and let her buy whatever she wanted.
However, if Xia He wanted to live in a big house like Qiao Mei, then she would have to wait a few more years. He would definitely let Xia He live in a spacious big house within the next five years.
After seeing how determined Deng Fan was, Xia Mao finally felt at ease to let him take care of Xia He.
"You should feel at ease!" Qiao Mei said with a smile.
"Why?" Deng Fan looked at Qiao Mei in confusion.
"Because you're a member of the Xia family! We're all your family members. If we don't care about you when something happens to you, then who should do it? Don't worry, leave the man in the neighboring room to Eldest Brother and me. Just take good care of Xia He." With that, Qiao Mei went over to the other room.
Qiao Mei originally wanted to put on a fake smile to deal with the situation, but she did not expect Xia Wen and Du Miao to already be sitting together and chatting happily. If the two of them had a bottle of liquor in front of them, it would not be long before they called each other brothers!
If she did not know that this was Xia Wen's usual ploy, she would really have gone out to buy some liquor!
"Oh my! Is this Xia Zhe's wife? I was so shocked when he got married back then! I thought he would marry that little girl from the He family. That girl has liked Xia Zhe since she was young. I didn't expect it to be this woman in the end. But it's no wonder that Xia Zhe likes her. She's so beautiful that no man will want to give her up," Du Miao said as he sized Qiao Mei up.
Qiao Mei clenched her fists slightly. This Du Miao was indeed not someone to be trifled with. He had a sharp tongue and said such mean things with a cheerful look on his face.
"I'm afraid you outsiders don't know about this. Our Xia Zhe and Qiao Mei have been engaged for a long time. My grandfather had instructed Xiao Zhe to go and discuss the matter of marriage with Grandpa Qiao. After that, you all know what happened. Qiao Mei came to the capital to live with us," Xia Wen explained.
"Oh? Is that so? Then why did that little girl from the He family kick up such a big fuss?" Du Miao pretended to be puzzled and asked.
"This is one of Xia Zhe's romantic debts! Don't you know how talented and good-looking my younger brother is?" Xia Wen said as he stared at Du Miao.
Qiao Mei realized that Du Miao looked like he had choked on a dead fly. Could it be that there was some story between Xia Zhe and Du Miao in the past? After they settled this matter, she must ask Eldest Brother about it in detail!
"Cough, cough…" Du Miao coughed twice and then said, "It's getting late. Let's get to the point. Song Dan is still lying in the hospital and the prognosis is unclear. I heard that Xia He was the one who kept urging him to drink. You should give us an explanation for this."
Qiao Mei sat down on the chair beside Xia Wen and said, "You already said that you 'heard' about it. It's better not to say too much about these things if you don't have any evidence."
