After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1085 You Are a Little Magnate
Firstly, the Tan family did not have any money, and secondly, they were incapable of talking nicely to other people. When things were in their favor, they would behave arrogantly and look down on others. They would talk down to people loudly and boorishly.

When things were not in their favor, they were never worried. They would sit on the ground and cry and weep for three days and three nights. As long as they persevered with such behavior, there was nothing they could not achieve.

They were more than willing to hang themselves at the entrance of the Xia family residence and see who would find it more embarrassing! It would be terrible for the Xia family if word got out that they wanted to force their in-laws to their deaths for that bit of money!

If the descendants of the Xia family still wanted to make a name for themselves in the future, they must always maintain a good reputation.

The thing about reputation was that once one’s reputation was tarnished, there were many aftereffects. At best, it would not be easy for the children in one’s family to get married since no one from a reputable family would be willing to be part of one’s family. At worst, all the members of one’s family would have tough lives and become looked down upon and ignored by others.

The Tan family had banked on this fact to exert control over the Xia family. They knew that the Xia family did not have time to waste on the Tan family. Moreover, Xia Wen would not bear to put Tan Jing in a difficult position. However, from the looks of it now, it was Tan Jing’s weakness which allowed the Tan family to become so demanding and ungrateful.

“Let’s sum up the amount of money which the Tan family had borrowed from us in the past five years. One must put the saddle on the right horse. We’ll ask them to repay all the money they owe us. Otherwise, we’ll file a police report,” Xia Wen said firmly.

Tan Jing looked at Xia Wen and said, “Do you intend to drive my parents to their graves! They’re already so old and you want them to scramble to pay the debts! How do you want them to live for the rest of their lives!”

“Is this a bad time?” Qiao Mei whispered as she gently pushed open the door.

Xu Lan hurriedly got up to let Qiao Mei in. Xia He followed behind Qiao Mei. When Xia He woke up and heard that Xia Mao and Xu Lan were looking for her and had asked her to go to the study, she asked Qiao Mei to join her. She was a little afraid to go into the study alone. She had been very obedient recently and had not done anything wrong, so she did not know why they had asked for her presence.

“Why are you here when you’re not feeling well? You should sleep a little longer. Did we make too much noise and wake you up?” Xu Lan asked.

Qiao Mei shook her head. It was not a must for her to come in, but she had heard from Xia Xiu that the matter was more serious this time, so she accompanied Xia He to come and see what was going on.

“I’m just wondering what’s happening. From what Eldest Sister-in-law said just now, is our family having money issues?” Qiao Mei probed.

“It’s not our family. If our family is short of money, we will definitely let you know. You’re the little magnate here,” Xu Lan said gently.

Xu Lan’s attitude was a complete opposite from when she spoke to Tan Jing just now. The speed at which she changed her demeanor was astounding.

“The key thing is not the money. What’s most important for us is what else has your Tan family done while using the Xia family’s name? You’d better give us all the details,” Xu Lan said sternly as she looked at Tan Jing.

The truth was that Tan Jing did not know either. The Tan family would never tell her about what they did. Most of the time, she was just taking the blame for trouble which they caused on their own.

Qiao Mei suddenly took out 12 receipts from her pocket. The contents of these receipts were similar to the ones Xu Lan had produced. These were all signed off by various shopkeepers.

“I haven’t had the chance to tell all of you about this. After I reached the capital, many people came to ask me for money. I didn’t think it was a big deal since each bill was just tens of dollars and I kept forgetting to tell Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law about this. I hope it’s not too late to bring up this issue now,” Qiao Mei said.

Xia Wen’s ears flushed red. He did not expect that there were people who had gone to look for Qiao Mei. The thing was that Qiao Mei had produced even more receipts than Xu Lan and the amounts were also larger.
“Why do you still have such things too! I hope they didn’t do anything to you!” Xu Lan asked worriedly.

“No, these people are all from proper shops. When they came, they were all very polite. They probably heard that Auntie Tan had come to my place to kick up a fuss a few times, so they came to look for me,” Qiao Mei said.

Xu Lan’s eyes widened even more. Jiang Yi had actually gone to look for Qiao Mei! When exactly did this happen! Why was it that she did not know anything about it!
