After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! - Chapter 1746 Consider Carefully

Chapter 1746 Consider Carefully

“Eldest Aunt, go ahead and choose someone. Who do you trust in the family?” Qiao Mei said.

After all, this was still a gambling bet and they could not let outsiders be the guarantor. It would not do them any good if the matter blew up. The only way to do it quietly was to get a family member whom Xu Ju trusted to be the middleman.

If anyone from the government found out that Qiao Mei had made a bet using the house which the country awarded her, she would be criticized! If the news were published in the newspapers, Qiao Mei could even be drowned by all the gossip. This would also have a huge impact on the Xia family’s reputation.

“Then… then let’s look for your grandfather! Let’s go and look for Xia Jun! He’s the most upright person! Let’s go and see him!” Xu Ju said firmly.

Qiao Mei nodded. She took her car keys to drive everyone to Xia Jun’s house. As soon as they got into the car, Xu Ju felt extremely jealous. Why could Qiao Mei get such a good car? All she did was to donate some seeds. It was not something that no one else could do. Xu Ju was sure that it was only because the opportunity had fallen into the hands of the Xia family and then they gave it to Qiao Mei. Otherwise, anyone could also donate seeds.

“Qiao Mei, are you usually the one using this car?” Xu Ju probed.

“Yes, me. Why?” Qiao Mei asked as she drove.

“It’s just that… Look, you’re pregnant now and it’s not convenient for you to drive. You should get the chauffeur to drive you around. Lend me this car. I know how to drive! My husband has to walk more than 20 kilometers to and from work every day! It’s really very tiring. Lend us the car for a while and we’ll return it to you later!” Xu Ju raised the issue with Qiao Mei in a gentle voice.

Xu Ju seemed to have the ability to change her face. When she begged someone for something, it was as if she had become a different person. Yet, when someone wanted to take advantage of her, she was someone who would make them pay a bloody price.

She had just been calling Qiao Mei “little girl” just now, but now she called Qiao Mei by name. It was really laughable.

“I don’t lend my car to others. If there’s an accident and they go after the car owner, then I’ll be so wronged. I’m not the one driving, but I still have to take responsibility for it. Eldest Aunt, you should think of another way. If there’s really no other way, then you should ask Eldest Uncle-in-law to get another job,” Qiao Mei said.

“What is this child saying! How can you curse people!” Xu Ju said angrily.

“I’m just stating the facts. Eldest Aunt, don’t be angry,” Qiao Mei said.

After a long drive, Qiao Mei finally arrived at Xia Jun’s house. At this moment, Xia Jun had just returned from playing chess at someone else’s house. He did not win a single game during the entire day and was in a very bad mood. If Xu Ju still went in now, she was just going to make Xia Jun even more unhappy.

“Old man, are you at home? Open the door! I’m looking for you!” Xu Ju stood at the door and shouted rudely.

Xia Jun’s helper opened the door and wanted to close and lock it when she saw Xu Ju. However, when she saw Qiao Mei behind Xu Ju, she opened the door again.

“Mei Mei, why are you here with her?” the helper asked.

“What are you saying! What do you mean by why is she here with me! Can’t she come with me?” Xu Ju questioned.

Qiao Mei immediately replied, “I need to talk to Grandfather. I wonder if it’s convenient for him.”

“Old Master is in the living room. You can go in.” After saying that, the helper made way for them to enter. Xia Jun was sitting on the sofa and drinking tea!

Xu Ju threw the signed agreement in front of Xia Jun and said, “Take a look. I made a bet with Qiao Mei. Bear witness for us.”

Xia Jun looked at Xu Ju in disdain. If not for the fact that the Xia family and the Xu family were in-laws and Xu Lan had waited on him for so many years, he did not even want to look at Xu Ju! However, since the agreement had something to do with Qiao Mei, Xia Jun still picked it up to take a look.

After reading the agreement, he looked at Qiao Mei and asked, “Mei Mei, are you acting on impulse? The house in Lian City is really quite nice, even better than the one you’re living in now. Are you sure you want to stake this house in the bet? Grandfather will suggest that you consider it carefully.”

Hearing what Xia Jun said, Qiao Mei was overjoyed. If Xia Jun said that the house was nice, then the house must be extraordinary. In that case, she had struck the jackpot! In the future, she could bring the children and Xia Zhe there for a getaway during the hot summer days.

“Don’t worry, Grandfather. I’ll use it in the bet,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.
