After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1228 Formal Introduction
Realization dawned on Xia You and she was no longer worried. She patted Xia Zhe’s shoulder forcefully and said, “Don’t forget what I said. Treat Qiao Mei well! Marrying a good wife will bring you prosperity for three generations! This is your blessing from our Xia family ancestors!”

“Of course. Do I need you to remind me about such a simple matter?” Xia Zhe said happily.

Xia Wan and Xu Lan had always been very close. Xu Lan always liked gentle girls like Xia Wan and felt that this was how daughters of wealthy families should behave. If only Xia He could have Xia Wan’s temperament and character, then Xu Lan would not have to worry about anything!

“Eldest Sister-in-law, I haven’t had the chance to make this introduction yet. This is my third son’s wife, Yun Lan. Both of you have met before, but this is the first time she’s visiting you as my daughter-in-law!” Liu Fen was so happy that she kept grinning. Her wish was for Xia Yu and Xia Yuan to get married soon. With this, it was like half her wish coming true. The remaining half would depend on whether Xia Yuan was willing to do the same soon.

“Yes, yes, we’ve met before! Your mother-in-law didn’t tell me that you’ve already registered your marriage. I only found out about it today! Take a seat downstairs first! I’ll be down soon!” Xu Lan hurriedly returned to her bedroom upstairs.

Yun Lan looked towards the upper floor in puzzlement and asked awkwardly, “Did I do something wrong? Why did Eldest Aunt-in-law go upstairs all of a sudden?”

Liu Fen said laughingly, “Silly girl, your eldest aunt-in-law has gone to look for treasures! Basically, all the daughters-in-law of the Xia family will receive gifts from her. This is a custom of our Xia family. Qiao Mei also received presents from us. Don’t worry and just accept it later.”

There was a reason why she did not tell everyone about the good news in advance. After all, the two youngsters had only registered their marriage and had not held the wedding ceremony yet. It was not appropriate to tell too many people about it. Therefore, she asked Xia Yu to bring Yun Lan here on this occasion so that she could inform the rest of the family.

She did not expect Zhou Luo to have come and stirred up trouble, causing chaos at the family banquet. In the end, Yun Lan had to suffer for it.

Xia Zhe and Xia Wen went upstairs to look after the babies, leaving the women to chat downstairs. It had been too long since these women last saw one another, so they definitely would have a lot of gossip to catch up on. They would only find it awkward if the men stayed around. Xia Yu and Xia Yuan also felt the same way, so they drove out to buy the ingredients for dinner.

Xia Jun had not returned to his own house for a while. He had already gotten used to living at Qiao Qiang’s place after so many days. Now that he was back, he found everything to be an eyesore, but he could not sell this house and move to Qiao Mei’s place yet. Although the Xia family was rich and powerful, this house was still government property after all. It would only belong to him after he occupied the property for 20 years!

Even when it belonged to him, he still could not sell it off too as and when he liked. However, if he only depended on his pension, it would not even be enough for him to buy one bathroom at Qiao Mei’s place. It was more cost-effective for him to continue to freeload from Qiao Qiang!

“Grandfather,” Xia Xing called out indifferently. Xia Lu and Xia Yan did not even say anything. They only stood behind Xia Xing and bowed slowly. Then, they went upstairs to the guest room which they usually used. They did not even bother to spend time with Xia Jun at all and Xia Jun was also already used to it.

He had his own bias for sure. His favorite grandchildren were Xia Mao’s three children. He adored them and was more than willing to give them everything.
Although Xia Guang’s children would stay with him whenever they came to the capital, they were just doing it for show. Between his two younger sons’ families, he preferred his grandchildren from his second son’s family. Although Liu Fen had a brash personality, she still managed to bring up her children to be kind-hearted people.

He just wanted his grandchildren to be good people, there was nothing else he wanted. It did not matter if they were not outstanding, at least they must be upright with a clear conscience.

When Zhou Luo saw Xia Jun, she also only exchanged a few simple pleasantries with him. She had been to Xia Jun’s house before, but she had never stayed there. It was not appropriate for her to stay at Xia Jun’s house, so she would return to her accommodation at the nearby guest house after dinner.

Xu Lan and Xia Wan were chatting happily with the other women when the flowerpot by the window suddenly fell to the ground and shattered. Only then did they realize that there was someone else in the room with them.

“You… Aren’t you Brother Xing’s partner?” Xia You said as she looked at Shao Yin.

Xu Lan was a little unhappy. This girl was not a member of the Xia family yet and she also did not conduct herself well. Now, she even broke the pot containing the flowers which she had specially prepared for Qiao Mei. It had taken her a lot of effort to find those flower seeds.
