After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! - Chapter 1698 Life Is Unpredictable

Chapter 1698 Life Is Unpredictable

Qiao Mei had heard of that before. When Zhang Wei returned home, he had mentioned it to Li Gui a few times. Li Gui had bought one piece each for all the four children and it was indeed not cheap. Ordinary families would not be able to afford it.

She was one of those who could afford it. If everyone continued to get along well with her in the future, it was not too difficult a matter for her to give their sons one piece each.

“Sister, don’t take what those b*tches said to heart. Nothing nice comes out of their mouths! They’re ignorant people who just want to bully us! Don’t lower yourself to their level,” Wang Nuo said.

“I know. Ladies, don’t be angry as well. What I said just now was just to make them angry. Don’t take it to heart. I know you have my best interests at heart,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Qiao Mei could not wait for Lu Lin to go around and publicize everything she said today. This way, she would not have to worry about others trying to hitch a ride with her since they would think that she was a money-grubber.

“We know it of course! We remember your kindness to us! In our hearts, you’re already one of us. We’re all family!” Liu Yun said agitatedly.

“That’s right!” Wang Nuo and Zhang Cai echoed.

Qiao Mei did not expect that the three people who looked down on her the most in the beginning would be the ones who were so nice to her now. Life was really unpredictable!

Liu Yun and the other women were just suffering from the aftereffects of being bullied by the people living in the apartment building. They subconsciously had a bad impression of people from the city. However, after witnessing how capable Qiao Mei was, they all admired her very much.

It suddenly struck her that she had not seen Song Zhi for a long time. She wondered how Song Zhi was doing now and if Song Zhi’s husband still bullied her.

“Ladies, have you seen Sister Song Zhi recently?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

“Why do you want to bring up that unlucky woman!” Liu Yun said disdainfully.

“We haven’t seen her for a few days. We don’t even see her husband and we don’t know what her entire family is doing. I heard from my husband that Song Zhi washed her husband’s letters together with the laundry. Her husband flew into a rage and hit her!” Wang Nuo whispered.

Zhang Cai also continued softly, “That’s right! I also heard the screams. Sigh… She’s actually quite a poor thing, but then again, she asked for it. We don’t know the details either. It looks like their family is about to move away, so don’t ask too many questions. Just pretend that you don’t know anything.”

Qiao Mei nodded. She was just asking about it casually and did not expect so many things to have happened while she was away. Life was really unpredictable.

After chatting for a while, everyone went back home happily with the fabric. Qiao Mei also went home happily to cook for Xia Zhe.

Today was the day that Xia Zhe would return from his mission. She must make a table full of dishes to welcome him back!

However, Xia Zhe did not return even after midnight. The other people with him also did not come back. Qiao Mei really could not wait any longer and made a call to Zhao Wu.

“Hello, I’m Qiao Mei, Comrade Xia Zhe’s wife. Is it alright if I want to talk to Comrade Zhao Wu?” Qiao Mei said.

Family members living in the military family compound were allowed to make phone calls to the army camp. This was a right granted to them, but only a few families received the approval to install telephones in their homes so that they could contact the army base directly in case of emergencies.

“Hello, comrade. I’m the operator. I’ll get someone to call Comrade Zhao Wu to come to the phone. Wait a moment.” After saying that, the operator made arrangements for someone to go and look for Zhao Wu. Not long after, Zhao Wu ran over.

He picked up the phone while still panting and said, “Hello? Sister-in-law? Why are you looking for me?”

“I just want to ask if Xia Zhe is back? I remember that today is the day he comes home. Why isn’t he back yet?” Qiao Mei asked worriedly.

In the past, whatever information Xia Zhe gave Qiao Mei was usually accurate and did not deviate too much. This was the first time something like today had happened.

“They’re not back yet. Sister-in-law, you should go and take a rest first. I talked to them on the phone yesterday. Xia Zhe is fine. Perhaps the mountain road is not easy to walk at night, so they need more time. Don’t worry. If he doesn’t make it back tonight, we will definitely get some news tomorrow!” Zhao Wu said.

“Alright, I’ll wait a little longer.” Qiao Mei hung up after saying that.
