After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1390 Grow Up in the Blink of an Eye
“Sister Feng, look at how fast the children have grown. It’s only been a few months and they’ve already so big!” Qiao Mei said as she looked tenderly at the two children.

When the two babies were first born, she could not tell who their eyes and mouths resembled. Only Xu Lan and Li Gui could tell which part of the babies looked like which member of the family. At that time, she did not think that these two children looked like her at all.

Now that the children’s small faces had grown, Xia Fan was starting to look more like Xia Zhe and Xia Xing was starting to look more like her.

“Children grow up so fast. They just keep changing every day. If you don’t pay attention, you’ll miss out on a lot of things,” Feng Hua said.

“I’m so lucky to have Sister Feng here. Otherwise, I won’t know what to do.” Feng Hua had taken care of Qiao Mei from the late stages of her pregnancy until she gave birth. When the accident happened back then, it was even Feng Hua who had saved her life.

In her other life, she had heard of many pregnant women suffering from prenatal and postpartum depression, but she did not feel any sort of sadness at all. It was all because Feng Hua had silently helped her out with everything.

“Sister Feng, starting from next month, I’ll give you an additional 50 dollars a month,” Qiao Mei said.

In the past, when Feng Hua only took care of one child, her pay was 120 dollars a month. Now that she had to take care of two children alone, it was more than reasonable for her to be paid another 50 dollars a month.

“No, no, no! My salary is already very high now. I don’t need that much money. Moreover, Xia Fan is easier to take care of than many children. I also like these two children very much. You don’t have to increase my salary.” Feng Hua quickly rejected the offer.

“That won’t do! Then… how about an additional 30 dollars? It’s settled then. Sister Feng, don’t stand on ceremony with me. Don’t worry about taking this money!” Qiao Mei said.

“You’re such a child…” Feng Hua smiled and shook her head.

After coaxing the two children to sleep, Qiao Mei went to the courtyard to get some fresh air. The weather was getting better and she should start heading out more often. If she stayed at home every day and did nothing all day, it would not do her health any good in the long term.

Just as Qiao Mei was doing some stretches, she suddenly saw Shao Yin standing at the door. It looked like she had been standing there for a long time and did not dare to come in.
“Why are you standing at the door?” Qiao Mei walked over and asked.

“Third Cousin-in-law, the last time, I… I had scared the two children. I dare not go in to look for you, so I thought I’d just wait at the door. If anyone sees me, they can then bring me in,” Shao Yin said pitifully.

Seeing how pitiful Shao Yin looked, Qiao Mei did not have the heart to chase her away. After all, she was also the daughter-in-law of the Xia family. Even if she did not care about the Shao family, she had to show Third Uncle some respect.

“Come in.” Qiao Mei went to the kitchen and said to Xu Kang, “Auntie Xu, please send a pot of ginger soup to the living room. We have a guest.”

Shao Yin’s hands and feet were all frozen from the cold. After she entered the house, she was still shivering vigorously. She did not have a thick coat and was still only wearing the coat which Xia Xing had bought for her! No matter how much the Shao family doted on her, they were still too poor to buy new clothes for her.

Qiao Mei handed the blanket on the recliner to Shao Yin and said, “Put it over yourself. I have asked the helper to make some ginger soup. Drink a bit more later and you’ll be fine after sweating it out.”

“Thank you, Third Cousin-in-law,” Shao Yin said shakily.

“Why are you here? Is it just to take a look at me?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

“I’m here to ask Third Cousin-in-law for help. I wonder if you can help me?” Shao Yin’s tone of voice today was exactly the same as the other day. Qiao Mei subconsciously frowned, her mind filled with the sound of the children crying.

“I’m not that capable and can’t help you much. You should try to ask someone else,” Qiao Mei said coldly.

Shao Yin said agitatedly, “Only Third Cousin-in-law can help me with this! My father-in-law also asks me to come and look for you…”

Third Uncle? Qiao Mei looked at Shao Yin in surprise. Xia Guang had never asked her for anything. Furthermore, his entire family was still in her debt. Why would Xia Guang ask Shao Yin to come and beg her for help?

“Shao Yin, you have to know that it’s a bad habit to tell lies. If I find out that what you’re about to say is not something which Third Uncle asked you to come and say, then I’ll have to go home and tell Grandfather. I’ll let Grandfather find out what happened. If so, you should know how serious the consequences can be,” Qiao Mei said with narrowed eyes.
