After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

982 Just Being Jealous

Xu Lan knew that Qiao Mei was comforting her. After all, Xia Zhe had been brought up by Xia Xiu and Xia Fang since he was young. One month after giving birth to Xia Zhe, she went out to perform again. It was only when Xia Zhe was in junior high school that she gradually found time to accompany him. However, Xia Zhe had already grown up by then and was not close to her at all.

After packing up, Qiao Mei and Xia He took the car back to the courtyard house. At this moment, Xia Wen had already reached his own home. As soon as he pushed open the door, he could detect the smell of all kinds of alcohol.

He did not even know that Tan Jing was a drinker. Ever since they got married, he had never seen Tan Jing drinking. At this moment, Tan Jing was sleeping soundly on the carpet with a bottle in her arms, unaware that Xia Wen had already returned home.

First, Xia Wen carried Tan Jing out from the pile of trash and gently placed her on the bed. Then, he quietly made his way to the living room and opened the windows to ventilate the room. After that, he picked up the miscellaneous items and bottles from the floor and put them into the trash bag, intending to throw them away when he went downstairs later.

It was only when he got closer that he saw there was still some of Tan Jing’s vomit on the carpet. She had probably tried to clean up, but she was not thorough enough.

Xia Wen did not have the patience to wash such a big carpet. The amount of money he needed to pay to get the carpet washed would be about the same as buying a new carpet. Without any hesitation, he rolled up the carpet so that he could throw it away.

It had only been a few days and Tan Jing had already tortured herself so much that she looked a mess. Even the school leader had made a phone call to Xia Wen and he had submitted Tan Jing’s resignation to the school on her behalf. He just wanted her to rest at home for now and only go back to work after she was able to sort her thoughts out.

After Xia Wen tidied up the entire house, Tan Jing gradually woke up. She held her head in discomfort and had no memory of what she did last night. She only remembered that she slept very well the past night and felt an unprecedented sense of security. After drinking, she could forget many of her worries.

“You’re awake,” Xia Wen said to Tan Jing as he stood at the door.

Tan Jing struggled to get up. This was the first time she had ever been in such a sorry state in front of Xia Wen. Not only did she stink of alcohol, but her clothes were dirty and she looked like a crazy woman.

“Mmm When did you come back? Why didn’t you wake me up?” Tan Jing asked softly.

“Why did you drink so much this morning?” Xia Wen walked over and sat beside Tan Jing.

Tan Jing lowered her head like a child who had made a mistake. She did not dare to look into Xia Wen’s eyes or face him. She was worried that Xia Wen would be completely disappointed in her and that this marriage would soon come to an end.

Xia Wen sighed helplessly and said, “If you have any issues, you have to tell me. I won’t know what you’re thinking if you don’t tell me.”

Tan Jing had also thought about this issue when she was drinking yesterday. What exactly did she want? To get Qiao Mei’s house? Or to make Qiao Mei’s children disappear from this world? Or to have her own child?

She thought about it for the entire night but still could not figure it out. Perhaps she was just jealous. She was jealous that Qiao Mei was gentler and more generous than her, jealous that Qiao Mei was more outstanding and capable than her, jealous that Qiao Mei could easily get everyone’s favor and that all she got was endless insults from everyone.

“I don’t know I don’t know what I want either” Tan Jing said weakly.

“Mother told me something today. Father has two houses in the village in the western suburbs, enough for father-in-law, mother-in-law and your second brother’s family to live in. Then they can give their current house to your sister. This way, they won’t disrupt one another’s lives and the issue with the house will also be resolved,” Xia Wen said.

Tan Jing did not see it as Xu Lan being kind. Instead, she felt that Xu Lan had ulterior motives. Why did Xu Lan want to make her parents go to the countryside? The western suburbs were so far away that it would take two hours to drive there. It had not been easy for the old couple to come to the city from the countryside, so they would never move back there.

Xia Wen and Xu Lan were really doing everything they could to stop the Tan family from getting close to Qiao Mei. It was just short of Xia Wen divorcing her so that the Xia family could cut ties with the Tan family.

“What are you saying! Are you asking my parents and brothers to live in the countryside! Is that even a livable place? My nephew still has to go to school!” Tan Jing said angrily.
