870 Causing Trouble

Xia He blushed and said, “It’s me…”

“Then how can you say that I don’t like you? I will choose to cook what you like to eat every day! My culinary skills have improved a lot and I’ve learned many new dishes!” Li Gui said.

Nowadays, it could be said that she was running a successful business and her family was thriving. Every day, she had to push a small cart to buy groceries. Otherwise, she would not be able to carry everything back.

Qiao Mei also felt that it was too tiring for Li Gui to both take care of them and sell goods, so she wanted to find a helper to come and cook for the family. She did not expect Li Gui to strongly object to this idea.

Li Gui’s purpose in coming to the capital was to take care of Qiao Mei so that she could give birth to the children in peace. She was sure that she could take care of Qiao Mei and her two grandchildren.

If they hired a helper now, people might gossiped about it. What if Xu Lan became unhappy with them then? Although it was Qiao Mei’s house now, Xu Lan still felt a little uncomfortable about this fact.

Xia He also started to wake up early to go grocery shopping with Li Gui. She went along as Li Gui’s a.s.sistant and sometimes, she would even help to fry one or two vegetable dishes! She had also improved a lot.

After dinner, everyone went back to rest. At Xia Wen’s current position, he had a chauffeur to pick him up and it was already midnight when he got home.

As soon as Xia Wen entered, he saw Tan Jing sitting on the sofa unhappily, waiting for him to come home. They had agreed to have dinner at home today, and she had made three to four nice dishes!

“Why are you back so late? Where did you go?” Tan Jing pouted as she said unhappily.

“I was held up because of something. What’s wrong?” Xia Wen tried to hide the truth.

Nowadays, Tan Jing would quarrel with him whenever she heard anything about Qiao Mei’s family. He really did not have the energy to explain these things to Tan Jing, so he might as well not let her know.

After being married for so many years, how could she not know Xia Wen well? He must have gone to Qiao Mei’s house!

When Tan Jing approached Xia Wen, she could smell some alcohol on him and asked, “Did you drink?”

“A little, not too much,” Xia Wen said.

Tan Jing still pulled a long face. When Xia Wen saw this, he did not say anything. After changing into his pajamas, he went to bed and prepared to go to sleep. Tan Jing looked at Xia Wen in shock. Usually, when she was unhappy, he would think of ways to coax her, but there was no such reaction from him now.

“Where exactly did you go!” Tan Jing asked unhappily.

Xia Wen lay under the blanket and still did not speak. Tan Jing actually did not want to hear the answer anymore. She was more afraid of hearing the truth.

“I want to tell you that my parents came to rush me again. What exactly is Qiao Mei going to do with her house? I heard that she bought another courtyard house and the floor area is exactly the same as the courtyard house she’s living in now. What’s the use of having so many houses!” Tan Jing said as she pushed Xia Wen.

Xia Wen already knew that this issue was definitely not over yet. He lay on the bed with his eyes closed and said, “If your parents want to move out and live on their own, I can find a house for them. If everyone wants to live separately, then each family can find a separate house to live in. It’ll be more peaceful if everyone lives a distance from one another.”

Tan Jing gently kicked Xia Wen and said, “My parents call me every day and say that it’s too crowded at home. The children are making a fuss and it’s so noisy. Can’t you go to Qiao Mei’s place and put in a good word for them? It’s not as if she can live in three big houses alone! She might as well let my parents stay there.”

“Then are your parents going to pay?” Xia Wen questioned.

Tan Jing behaved as if a fishbone was stuck in her throat and said guiltily, “About that! Of course they’ll pay! It’s considered a lease.”

“Since they’re going to pay to rent a house, why is it a must to stay in Qiao Mei’s house? Why can’t they stay in someone else’s house?” Xia Wen asked.

“How are you going to find someone else’s house now! Doesn’t Qiao Mei already have a vacant house!” Tan Jing said.

“As long as we’re willing to pay, we’ll be able to find one. Don’t worry about whether I can manage to find it. If your parents really want to move out, let me know the timeline. I can make the arrangements now,” Xia Wen said sternly.

Tan Jing did not know what to say for a moment. The current Xia Wen was different from before. He was now a government official and could do many things. He was no longer that unknown university professor.

“Why can’t you just speak to Qiao Mei?” Tan Jing asked angrily.

“You’re her sister-in-law, why don’t you go and talk to her? Besides, we’re willing to pay her money to live there. It’s not like we’re not paying. Why do you need me to go,” Xia Wen said.
