After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! Chapter 1309 An Ulterior Motive

Chapter 1309 An Ulterior Motive

After Xia Guang and Xia Jun were done talking, they returned to Xia Jun's house together. Xia Xing and Shao Yin stayed behind and continued to mingle with Xu Lan and the rest.

The moment Xia Wen finished his meal, he carried Xia Xing and got busy with changing her clothes and diapers, feeding her the powdered milk drink, coaxing her to sleep and so on. Xia Zhe could not offer his help even if he wanted to. Xia Wen's actions were smooth and systematic, as if Xia Xing was his child.

Qiao Mei patted Xia Zhe's hand and whispered, "Are you unhappy?"

"No, it's just that my heart aches when I see Eldest Brother like this. If he had married someone else back then, his child might even be the same age as you now," Xia Zhe said with a smile.

"I was worried that you might be jealous! These two little babies smile whenever they see Xia Wen. The two of them seem to know that Xia Wen will let them do whatever they want," Qiao Mei said resignedly.

Children of this age liked to grab people they saw! However, these two babies did not seem to feel excited when they saw Feng Hua and Xia Zhe. They only kept babbling and asking for hugs when they saw Xia Wen.

Seeing this, Shao Yin immediately went forward to chat with Xia Wen. She spoke to him very affectionately, "Brother Wen! You must really like children. I can see that you dote on Xia Xing a lot!"

She was almost pressing her entire body against Xia Wen. Initially, she had thought that it did not matter which Xia family son's family she married into since she would be taken care of no matter what. Her only purpose in marrying into the Xia family was to let her own siblings live a better life and to bring them over to the capital together to enjoy life. However, she did not expect Xia Xing to be like an empty vase, one which was good-looking but useless.

The eldest son's family still had the final say in the Xia family. If only she could marry Xia Wen, then she would really be able to enjoy a good life!

"Look, Brother Xing's fiancée is sticking so close to Eldest Brother again. What exactly is she trying to do? Brother Xing doesn't even care and just lets her go seeking out Eldest Brother?" Xia He said angrily.

"What else can she be doing? Our eldest brother is so handsome and he's also single at the moment. If it's up to you, will you choose Xia Xing or Xia Wen? Besides, Xia Xing and her are a match arranged by Zhou Luo. Perhaps Xia Xing doesn't want to marry her at all," Qiao Mei said.

Without any hesitation, Xia He immediately said, "Of course I'll choose Eldest Brother! Ah! So… so that little girl is targeting Eldest Brother! No, no, we have to stop her. We can't let this scourge enter our family!"

"Don't worry, how can Eldest Brother get harmed by her? How can she be wilier than Eldest Brother? It's not as if she can force herself on him." After Qiao Mei finished speaking, she had a feeling that someone was staring at her from behind.

Qiao Mei turned around and saw Xia Zhe looking at her thoughtfully. There was even a faint smile on his lips. She suddenly thought of their first night together and immediately felt a little embarra.s.sed. Xia Zhe must have heard what she said just now.

Xia Zhe recalled how the two of them spent that pa.s.sionate night together. Sometimes, he felt that it was not too bad to have a wife who liked to take the initiative…

After some consideration, Xia He still felt that it was better to tell Xu Lan about the matter. This way, they could be on guard and not get scammed. One had to be wary of others!

Xia Wen looked at Shao Yin politely and said, "Cousin-in-law, I'm going to put Xia Xing to bed now. You should find someone else to chat with."

He left Shao Yin standing downstairs in a daze. Xia Xing had only just woken up but she was about to be coaxed to sleep by Xia Wen again.

Shao Yin then turned around and came to Qiao Mei's side. "Cousin-in-law! I think I should be addressing you as Third Cousin-in-law!"

"Yes," Qiao Mei said.

"Third Cousin-in-law, why is your cooking so delicious? Can you teach me? Do you have any secrets up your sleeves?" Shao Yin asked in a familiar manner.

"There are no secrets. You just have to make sure that everything is well-cooked. If you can't even do that, then you should go buy a few books. There are all kinds of dishes in the books. You can learn to make whichever dish you want," Xia He said moodily.

Qiao Mei was already so tired from having to cook for everyone, so how would she have the energy to deal with Shao Yin? Yet Xia Xing just stood there like a block of wood. Shao Yin was behaving so inappropriately. She tried to chat casually with whoever she saw. Those who did not know better would think that she had already married into the family!

"I'm just so envious of Third Cousin-in-law. You've only just married into the family and you already have two children. They're even a pair of twins! Tell me, did you eat some kind of folk remedy?" Shao Yin asked curiously.

"I didn't eat anything," Qiao Mei said with an awkward smile.
