After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

Chapter 1395 Preparing For The Engagement Banquet



Xu Kang moved all the vegetables down from the truck and sorted them out for use the next day. Some vegetables could not be washed in advance, otherwise they would spoil quickly.

Qiao Mei also called Mao Hang to come over. Mao Hang used to work in the army cookhouse, so he was definitely adept in the kitchen. This way, she had enough help.

Suddenly, there was the sound of the children crying in the room. They were probably feeling a little hungry after waking up. Xia Wen immediately dropped everything and rushed into the room.

"Look at Eldest Brother…" Qiao Mei pointed at Xia Wen and said with a smile.

"It's just a pity that Eldest Brother doesn't have any children of his own. If Eldest Brother didn't marry that person back then, his child would probably be the same age as you now!" Xia He said regretfully.

"Alright, let's not think about those unhappy things. Eldest Brother's good fortune lies ahead! Let's focus on what we need to do tomorrow. Nothing must go wrong," Qiao Mei said.

No matter who was the one throwing the banquet, it was still a Xia family affair at the end of the day. Qiao Mei had to be fully attentive and focused. If anything happened, it would be embarrassing for the Xia family.

Xia Wen seemed to have thought of something. He came out with the milk bottle and looked at Qiao Mei as he said, "Is everything you said just now all you want to tell me? Didn't Shao Yin say anything else?"

"Anything else? I don't think so… Oh right! She even wanted me to pick up the tab for the wedding banquet, but I rejected her straightaway. If she doesn't have money to pay for the wedding banquet, then I won't lend her the venue," Qiao Mei said smugly.

"Not bad, little girl. You're always quick when it comes to money. But you must be careful. My feeling is that the Shao family is after something big given that they are making such a fuss this round," Xia Wen said.

"Yes, I understand. I won't let them take advantage of me," Qiao Mei said as she nodded earnestly.

"You still say that you won't be taken advantage of. Shao Yin has already made you pay for two meals," Xia He said as she rolled her eyes.

Qiao Mei laughed and went to tickle Xia He. The two of them ran around in the courtyard and had a lot of fun.

The day of the engagement banquet arrived quickly. Qiao Mei started to make preparations early in the morning. Feng Hua brought the two children over to Li Gui's house so that the commotion in the main house would not frighten them.

"Third Cousin-in-law! Second Cousin! I'm here to help!" Xia Xing stood at the door and said excitedly.

"Why are you here so early? I don't see Shao Yin," Xia He asked curiously.

"I'm just thinking that since there will be many people coming today, Third Cousin-in-law must be very busy here. So I'm here to help," Xia Xing said.

Qiao Mei and Xia He looked at each other with a tacit understanding. Qiao Mei looked around but there was nothing else that needed Xia Xing's help. They were already using gas in this house, so there was no need to have someone chop wood for fire. In the end, Qiao Mei's gaze landed on the pile of crockery and cutlery.

"Xiao Xing, can you help me wash the dishes? Those crockery were last used during the new year and there's still a layer of dust on them!" Qiao Mei said.

"No problem! Leave it to me!" After saying that, Xia Xing started to get busy. He looked very serious and did not seem to be just fooling around.

In this house, they washed the dishes with warm water. Qiao Mei had installed a large water heater in the house so that she was prepared for days like this.

"It's such a pity about Xia Xing. I originally thought that he's just an immature child, but I never expected that he's forced to do all this by the Zhou family…" Xia He muttered softly.

"How can any kid in our family be too lousy? It's all because of that Zhou family. I don't even know if Third Uncle will come by tomorrow! Third Uncle hasn't given me any reply," Qiao Mei said worriedly.

"It's Xia Xing's wedding, so how can it be appropriate if Third Uncle doesn't come? It can't be that he's not coming," Xia He said with a frown. Now that Xia Guang and Zhou Hua were divorced, if Xia Guang did not turn up, then who else could take his place? If that was the case, Xia Xing would definitely feel sad.

Recently, Xia Guang had missed out on many training sessions at work due to all the issues with the Shao family. He could not take any more days off. His work was still the most important thing to him. Besides, he had already met all of them at the police post back then and he felt that there was no need to meet them again. Anyway, he would see them again at the wedding banquet.

In that case, the person attending as Xia Xing's elder would be Zhou Luo. She would definitely be sarcastic and pick on Qiao Mei. Who knew what kind of trouble she could cause!

Not long after, Mao Hang arrived at Qiao Mei's house on time. Even though Qiao Mei did not tell Chi Ze and the rest, they came with Mao Hang out of their own accord.
