After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

Chapter 1403 - 1403 Professional Actor



1403 Professional Actor

Qiao Mei stood at a spot not far away and watched Xia Wen downing one glass after another. Next to him, Shao Chun and Bian Jiu were like two cheerleaders who kept encouraging him to drink more. They even went forward to toast Xia Wen again and again. It looked like his vision was becoming a little blurry very quickly.

She immediately ran to Li Gui’s house and then came out carrying Xia Xing. As she walked, she whispered to Xia Xing, “Baby, your eldest uncle dotes on you a lot! It’s up to you to save him now, do you understand?”

Xia Xing kept babbling in Qiao Mei’s arms, as if she could understand what Qiao Mei was saying. As soon as they went near Xia Wen, she immediately started crying and throwing a tantrum. She performed even better than those professional actors. Qiao Mei was taken aback in surprise. In the future, she must send this child to acting classes. It would be a pity to waste such a talent.

“Eldest Brother! Come and take a look at Xia Xing. She keeps fussing and crying. You know she only listens to you,” Qiao Mei said anxiously.

Xia Wen did not immediately get what she meant. He waved his hands and said, “I… smell of alcohol. It’s better not to let the baby get close to me!”

“Then go to the back and change your clothes. I really can’t pacify her. If she continues to cry like this, she’ll get sick,” Qiao Mei said.

Even though Xia Wen was already a little drunk, he understood what Qiao Mei meant after she pushed the point across a few times. The two of them looked at each other and he immediately understood what she was doing.

“I’m sorry, I’ll go and coax the baby first. You guys continue eating! I’ll be back soon!” Xia Wen tried his best to steady himself and to act like he was fine. He carried the baby and hurried out of the front yard with Qiao Mei.

“Hey! Where are you going!”

Shao Tu and Shao Xian still wanted to stop Xia Wen from leaving! Xia He quickly blocked the way to the backyard and said, “My eldest brother will be back in a while. Enjoy your food first. The baby is still young and prefers to see familiar faces around her. It’s so hard to take care of this child.”

“That’s true! Back then, my Shao Xian was also like this! He’s so difficult to coax!” said Shao Tu’s wife, Huang Ning. Unexpectedly, before she could finish speaking, Shao Tu gave her a hard push, almost causing her to fall to the ground.

“You b*tch, what nonsense are you talking about! Just shut up!” Shao Tu pointed at her and said angrily.

Huang Ning was always getting beaten up at home, so she was already used to it. However, this was the first time Xia He had seen a man hit a woman. She almost lost her temper and had to control herself from going forward to beat Shao Tu up so that she could punish him on behalf of the heavens.

Qiao Mei quickly handed the baby to Xu Lan and the other women. They had already washed up and did not reek of alcohol anymore. Qiao Mei had also given them some tea made from 100-year-old ginseng earlier and they immediately felt less groggy.

“Eldest Brother, are you alright?” Qiao Mei asked worriedly.

“I’m a little drunk… I never expect the Shao family to be such good drinkers. If I continue drinking for a while more, I’ll be the next one to collapse to the ground,” Xia Wen said with a sigh.

Xu Lan looked at Xia Wen and felt so sorry for him. Those people from the Shao family were beasts! How could they drink alcohol in such a manner! They could cause someone to get sent to the hospital! It was all that b*tch, Zhou Luo’s fault. If she had not introduced such a family to Xia Xing, these kids would not have to suffer like this.

“How about I go and tell them to wrap things up for the day,” Qiao Mei said with a frown.

“No… They won’t let this matter rest today. Do you have any hangover medicine for me at home? I’ll be fine in a while if I take some,” Xia Wen said with a smile.

Qiao Mei looked at Xia Wen angrily, like she wanted to kill him. She could not believe that he could still smile. Those people from the Shao family clearly had ulterior motives, yet he still wanted to go back like a lamb to the slaughter. Was he stupid or something?

She knew that Xia Wen was doing this for the sake of the Xia family’s reputation, but she did not understand why he felt compelled to do it. Was reputation more important than anything, even a person’s life?

“Here, drink this,” Qiao Mei said resignedly.

She took out the small bottle she carried around with her and poured one drop of the liquid into some water. Then she gave the diluted drink to Xia Wen. Since Xia Wen had made a decision, as the Xia family’s daughter-in-law, she should stand on the same side as the Xia family and not criticize his actions.

Xia Wen could tell at a glance that this liquid was gold in color. It was different from the green liquid from before. This was the same medicine that had brought Xia Mao back to life.

“I can’t drink this. That’s really too wasteful!” Xia Wen blurted out.
