After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1749 Late

Nowadays, it was very difficult to find a helper who was as considerate as Auntie Peanut. Qiao Mei had interacted with many helpers before and she knew that it was a blessing to be able to find a helper whose temper and character matched that of the family!

“I’ll double your salary during this period of time because my house is big and there are many occupants, so it will definitely be more troublesome. If you have any requests, just tell Sister Feng Hua. She is in charge of the expenses and she’s the one who buys stuff and pays the salary. If you feel that there’s any household appliances which are lacking, you can also tell Sister Feng Hua and she will go and buy it,” Qiao Mei said.

“There’s no need to double my salary! This job is similar to what I do at your grandfather’s house. You don’t have to pay me more. Your grandfather already pays me a high salary. This is what I should do,” Auntie Peanut said immediately.

“Then I’ll give you a bonus! Just go along with me regarding this matter. I’ll have to trouble you to take good care of the two ‘overgrown children’ in my house during this period of time,” Qiao Mei said.

Auntie Peanut smiled and nodded. Qiao Mei asked Xu Kang to bring Auntie Peanut around to familiarize her with the different rooms at home and to brief her on Qiao Qiang’s usual routine. Auntie Peanut also told Xu Kang about Xia Jun’s habits so that neither of them would annoy the two old men.

The house was lively again and it was soon time for the start of the school term. The day before school started, Qiao Mei went to the mall to buy clothes which students liked to wear. She had wanted to make a few pieces of clothing herself, but time was limited and it was more convenient to go and buy them.

She mainly wanted clothes which were loose, comfortable and plain-looking. If she wore clothes that were too nice, it would inevitably attract attention. Qiao Mei also bought a new school bag and a lot of pens and writing materials.

“Ring, ring, ring~”

The phone in the study rang. Qiao Mei quickly went in to answer the call and said, “Hello, this is the Xia family residence.”

“Mei Mei, it’s Aunt. I hear from your mother-in-law that you’re attending classes at Sixth High starting tomorrow. There’s no canteen at Sixth High. During this period of time at school, you can go to my house during your lunch break,” Xia Fang said.

“This is too much trouble for you, Aunt,” Qiao Mei said embarrassedly.

“What’s there to be worried about? When Xia Zhe was still schooling, he stayed at my house for a few years! When you first came, you also stayed in Xia Zhe’s room. Even now, Xia Zhe’s things are still inside! It’s really tiring for you to travel back and forth while pregnant. It would be good if you only go back to your own home during the weekend break,” Xia Fang said.

Qiao Mei thought about it and felt that the offer was indeed very tempting. She said happily, “Thank you, Aunt! You should also come home at noon. I’ll cook a big meal for you!”

“Why do you need to cook! You have to study well and not work too hard. I should be the one cooking to reward you. It’s a deal! Come to my place for lunch break in the future!” Xia Fang hung up after saying that.

Qiao Mei packed all the things she needed for school and only went to sleep after confirming that she did not miss out on anything.

Early the next morning, Qiao Mei was woken up by Xu Kang. This was the first time she woke up so early. The rooster at home had not even crow yet. In the past, she did not think that going to school was so tiring, but she had changed her mind by now.

With heavy steps, Qiao Mei changed her clothes, took her school bag and drove to the entrance of Sixth High. When she reached the school gate, she realized that her car was really too ostentatious and quickly drove the car to Xia Fang’s house. She decided to park her car here before going to school. It took her less than five minutes to reach the entrance of Sixth High on foot.

Qiao Mei arrived late today and many students were already seated. As soon as Qiao Mei entered, all the students in the class gasped. They had seen beautiful women before, but only on television. They did not expect to see someone in real life who was even prettier than the beautiful women on television!

Qiao Mei did not want to attract too much attention, so she quickly walked to the window seat in the first row and sat down. The seat beside her was still empty. When she entered the classroom, Qiao Mei saw Xu Jiao sitting in the last row of the class with a male classmate beside her. This male classmate had been chatting animatedly with her, but when Qiao Mei arrived, everyone’s attention was focused on Qiao Mei.

“Who do you think this person is? She’s so beautiful!”

“I didn’t expect to be able to see such a beautiful woman in school. In the future, I’ll be the first to come to the classroom every day!”

“Hmph, what’s so great about being beautiful? The most important thing is to have good results!”
