After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1091 Send Her Back To Her Maternal Home
“Go, remove that thing from her mouth and let her speak. I want to know what she wants to say,” Xia Jun snorted and said coldly.

Xia Fang went in front of Tan Jing, grabbed a corner of the handkerchief and pulled it out forcefully. She was scared that if she got too close to Tan Jing’s mouth, Tan Jing would bite her, so she had no choice but to treat Tan Jing so roughly.

“I… It’s my fault… I’ll go and apologize to Qiao Mei. It’s a momentary lapse in judgment and I don’t know what possesses me to do that! I didn’t do it on purpose!” Tan Jing said aggrievedly.

“Are you still a child? You have to pay the price for your mistakes. Don’t make a show of being pitiful here. I won’t fall for that!” Xia Jun said furiously.

Everyone fell silent. There did not seem to be any appropriate way to punish Tan Jing. They could not possibly send Tan Jing to jail. Even if Xia Jun was willing to embarrass himself by doing that, Xia Wen would not agree to it.

Between these two men, one was the head of the family and the other one was the future head of the family. This matter did not concern the second and third sons’ branches of the family, so it was better for them not to get involved in case it became a sore point in the future.

Just as everyone was caught in a deadlock, Qiao Mei pushed open the door and walked out. She smiled at Xia Jun and said, “Grandfather, there’s nothing wrong with me, see? Don’t get so angry. Your health is the most important thing.”

“Grandfather is just worried about you. I’m already so old, what can happen to me? Why are you out here? Why isn’t that little brat Xia He watching over you! Go back to your room,” Xia Jun said with heartache.

“I’m here to share your burden. I don’t think this is a serious matter. Why don’t we just let Eldest Sister-in-law go back to her maternal home for a couple of days. In this way, we can also resolve those issues between the Tan family and our family. Won’t this be having the best of both worlds?” Qiao Mei said.

It may appear as if they were not punishing Tan Jing at all. However, doing this was actually doling out the worst punishment to Tan Jing.

At this moment, everyone in the Tan family relied on Tan Jing to get money from the Xia family for their survival. If Tan Jing went back to stay with the Tan family for too long, she would definitely get scolded by Jiang Yi and her brothers. The Tan family never liked Tan Jing and used to make her do all kinds of tough and tiring chores. They also criticized her all the time.
Tan Jing hated the Tan family the most, but she could not get rid of them. She could only be trapped in the Tan family and be bullied for the rest of her life.

Furthermore, the act of chasing Tan Jing back to the Tan family was also a show of intimidation by the Xia family. It would serve to tell them not to think that it was easy to bully Xia family and that Tan Jing was not that important to the Xia family. If they continued to do anything unfavorable to the Xia family, the Xia family would simply return her to them!

It would be obvious whether it was the Tan family who needed the Xia family more or the Xia family who could not do without the Tan family.

“Is that really what you think?” Xia Jun was a smart person and naturally knew what Qiao Mei meant. Sometimes, mental torture was thousands of times more uncomfortable than physical torture.

However, Xia Jun felt that this punishment was still too mild. If Xia He had not been in the same room just now, they would be looking at Qiao Mei’s corpse now!

That would have three lives lost at once! How vicious must Tan Jing be to do such a ruthless thing!

“Grandfather, we’re all a family. Eldest Sister-in-law just lost her senses for a moment. She would feel better after going back to get some rest. She can come back after one month,” Qiao Mei said.

After one month, she would have given birth. Even if Tan Jing wanted to harm her, she would not have the chance to do so. She was only being so merciful to Tan Jing because of how much she respected Xia Wen. This could be considered her way of returning all the favors she owed Xia Wen.

“If I listen to you and resolve it your way, your grandfather will skin me alive. I can’t let her off just like that,” Xia Jun said.

These words made Xia Jun laugh out loud and he said happily, “You little girl, you can even back me up now! Then tell your grandfather to give me the watch that he has treasured for many years. Let’s see if he agrees!”

“For such things, you have to ask him yourself. I can’t make such a decision for him!” Qiao Mei looked towards Tan Jing as she said, “Grandfather, do you think we can just do as I say?”

“Alright! If that’s what you want, then let’s do as you say. Xia Mao, get someone to send her back,” Xia Jun said sternly.
