After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!
Chapter 1387 Are You Going To Kill Her
During Xia Wen's recent business trip, he bought many things for the children every time he reached a new place. As he bought more and more things, he could not even fit them all in his luggage. His colleagues had to help him by packing most of the things in their luggage.
Many people thought that Xia Wen had an illegitimate child! It was only later that they found out it was his younger brother who had children.
"These are all things which other people recommended to me. They say that children of this age like to play with these things. Qiao Mei previously mentioned that children grow up very quickly, so I have also bought some toys for them to play with in the future. From now on, I'll be in charge of supplying all your children's toys!" Xia Wen said excitedly as he held onto the toys.
Qiao Mei rummaged through the toys on the floor. Most of them were new toys from overseas and there were also a few high-end toys made domestically. These needed to be reserved in advance. She guessed that Xia Wen had spent a lot of money on these toys.
When Xia Wen was born, the Xia family was only starting to make a mark. There was not a lot of money to spare and it was already good enough that he could go to school. He was often envious of other children who had toys to play with. Every time he passed by a toy shop, he would lean against the display window to look at the toys inside.
He knew that life was tough for his family and they could not afford to buy him toys, so he had never proactively asked for anything. At that time, Xia Mao and Xu Lan were very busy with their careers and did not have time to take care of him and Xia He.
Fortunately, Xia Jun knew how to make all kinds of toys. In particular, the slingshot he made was even sturdier than the ones sold in the toy shop. Even now, Xia Wen still kept all these toys with him.
"Eldest Brother, children don't need so many toys at this age. You don't have to buy so many for them. When the children are older, I'll hire another helper to take care of them separately. You can buy more toys then," Qiao Mei said.
At this age, the two babies just ate and slept most of the time and it was still easy to coax them. In particular, Xia Fan slept a lot. Some time ago, Qiao Mei even felt worried that there might be something wrong with Xia Fan's brain. After going to the hospital for a checkup, the doctor said that this was a normal phenomenon. Only then did Qiao Mei feel relieved.
Once the two children learned how to climb, Feng Hua would not be able to take care of them on her own anymore. At that time, the factory would have just been completed and there would be many things that Qiao Mei had to deal with. Other than Qiao Qiang, there was no one else in the house.
"Qiao Mei, have you considered bringing the children back for Mother to take care of when they're older?" Xia Wen asked.
Xu Lan really wanted to take care of her grandchildren personally, but she was too embarrassed to tell Qiao Mei. Firstly, she did not know how to raise the issue. Secondly, Qiao Mei did not lack money at all and it was not a problem for her to hire a few more helpers to take care of the children. In the end, she did not talk to Qiao Mei about it. Xia Wen only found out about Xu Lan's wish when he overheard a conversation between Xu Lan and Liu Fen.
"We'll see how it goes when the time comes. I still hope that I can take care of them myself. If I really don't have the time, then I'll ask Mother to come over and help," Qiao Mei said.
This thought had really never crossed her mind. Even though Xu Lan was very nice to her now, Xu Lan was not her own mother after all. She still felt a little embarrassed to ask Xu Lan for help. However, she would keep what Xia Wen said in mind and consider it carefully.
"Eldest Brother, has any Shao family member gone to look for you recently?" Xia He probed.
"I don't know. Even if they try, they won't be able to find me. Did something happen at home?" Xia Wen asked as he turned to look at Xia He.
Xia He was about to start complaining to Xia Wen when Qiao Mei covered Xia He's mouth and said, "It's nothing serious. Eldest Brother, you can go and play with Xia Fan and Xia Xing first. Stay for dinner later!"
"Sure," Xia Wen said as he shook his head helplessly. He did not know what these two were up to, so he did not probe further. When it was time for him to know, they would naturally tell him.
Qiao Mei dragged Xia He back to her bedroom. It was rare for Xia Wen to be able to relax so she did not want to disturb him with these trivial matters at home. It was not as if they could not handle these things themselves.
"Why didn't you let me tell Eldest Brother? The earlier I tell him, the earlier he can be prepared!" Xia He pouted and said.
"It's useless even if he's prepared. As long as Shao Yin is still eyeing Eldest Brother, it's useless no matter where he hides! We might as well target the Shao family directly!" Qiao Mei said huffily.
Target? Xia He widened her eyes and looked at Qiao Mei. She said nervously, "You… Don't tell me you want to kill her… It's not like she did anything heinous! Xia Fan and Xia Xing are completely fine and did not get sick out of fright. I think you should spare her."
