After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

842 The Poor Has More Say

This house looked different from the other ones she bought. Back then, Qiao Mei did not even take a closer look because she felt that it was too rundown and dirty. After buying it, she asked the owner to clean out all the trash and now it looked much better.

Qiao Mei and Xia He saw a suspicious looking man sneaking around not far from the main door of the house. He kept loitering around outside and would lean against the door from time to time to try and look inside. His behavior was very strange.

“What’s that person doing?” Xia He grabbed Qiao Mei and pointed at the man.

Qiao Mei grabbed Xia He and made a move to turn around, but they were still spotted by that man.

The man shouted at Qiao Mei and Xia He, “Stop! Are you the people who bought this house!”

He heard from the neighbors nearby that this house had been bought by a young and beautiful pregnant woman. The physical characteristics of these two women were the same as described. It must be them!

Whatever needed to happen would happen. Trouble was brewing.

Qiao Mei did not feel like hiding. She turned to look at the man and said, “What’s the matter?”

When the man saw that Qiao Mei had admitted it, he immediately put on a different expression and said arrogantly, “You’re just exploiting us commoners! You use the hard-earned money of us commoners to buy such a big house! I hear that you have three or four houses! You don’t even intend to live in such a big house! Why are you taking away our house!”

If these words were spoken 15 years ago, it would definitely cause an uproar. At that time, rich landlords would withhold money from the commoners but build big houses for themselves. That was why later on, the country made these rich people offer their houses to the poor commoners so that they had a place to live.

By now, this policy had already been abolished. The ownership of all these houses had returned to the hands of the original owners. A few people chose to move in while others chose to sell their houses.

As for the people who used to live in the houses, they had no say at all. After all, they had lived there for free for so long and sufficiently enjoyed the benefits.

The neighbors around the area all opened their doors and windows to watch the commotion, but no one was willing to come out to protect Qiao Mei and speak up for her.

“This house belongs to the Liu family! Who are you?” Xia He asked.

“Me! I’m the one who lives in this house!” Su Liang said.

Xia He laughed mockingly. To put it bluntly, he was just a scoundrel who wanted to continue living in the house for free.

“What are you laughing at! I don’t care! You have to open the door! Let us move back in!” Su Liang shouted as he pointed at the locked door.

The main door was broken and dilapidated. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was just made up of two wooden planks. It was surprising that Su Liang did not simply use force to break in and still waited for Qiao Mei to open the door.

At the very least, he was aware of the need to obey the law. With this, he was already much better than any of Qiao Zhuang’s family members.

“You still want to live here for free? No way! We’ve already bought this house! So it’s already our house and we can do whatever we want with it. You should go find another place to live in,” Xia He advised kindly.

Qiao Mei grabbed Xia He and wanted to leave. She really did not have the energy to stand here and argue with such a scoundrel. If she could not take a look at the house today, it was fine with her. She could come back tomorrow or the day after.

Su Liang could tell that Qiao Mei wanted to leave and quickly walked forward to block her way. He pointed at Qiao Mei and said, “You can’t leave! Hurry up and take out the key!”

“Move aside. If anything happens to me, can you bear the responsibility?” Qiao Mei said as she stroked her stomach slowly.

Su Liang was not afraid at all. Who knew if this pregnancy was real or fake. Besides, it was nothing special for a woman to be pregnant. Back when his mother was pregnant with him, she even rolled down the stairs and yet he was still alive and well. Qiao Mei was just trying to scare him.

“Don’t try to scare me! This is just a big belly! I’m not afraid of you! Hurry up and take out the key so that we can continue living here!” Su Liang said.

Qiao Mei’s worldview had been completely refreshed. So these people did not want to work hard and did not have a place to live, but they were blaming her for buying this house?

Fortunately, Qiao Mei did not transmigrate to an earlier period of time. Otherwise, she might have completely gone crazy. It was really scary and unreasonable to see what it was like when the poor had more say.

Qiao Mei dodged to one side and continued walking forward. Seeing this, Su Liang reached out and gave Qiao Mei a push.
