After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1121 Let me help you.
Tan Jing stood at the side, feeling embarrassed. She dared not look Cheng Gu in the face directly. What this man had done for her had already exceeded what normal friends did for each other. Deep down inside her heart, she also knew that Cheng Gu did not just treat her like an elder sister.

“It’s better that you don’t come here in the future. People will gossip about us,” Tan Jing said.

Even though she had only just arrived, she knew the speed at which gossip spread around in a village. In the few days since she moved here, these neighbors had already been making up all sorts of stories about her life. Some people even said that she was here to hide from her creditors, while others said that she looked like a child trafficker. There were even people who guessed that she was a mistress of some big boss out there. There were all kinds of stories, but none made her out to be a good person.

Tan Jing did not blame them. After all, there was not even one television set in this village. The people here could only gossip about one another to pass time. Once she lived here long enough, the rumors would die down.

Such things were commonplace to her. After so many years of being gossiped about because she was childless, she was already used to it.

“As a younger brother, I’m here to see how my elder sister is doing. What’s so bad about that? Why should I be afraid of them?” Cheng Gu said gently.

Cheng Gu noted down everything that was lacking in the house and quickly drove to the city to buy them. He filled up Tan Jing’s house with loads of things, including all the daily necessities that Tan Jing would need for the next month.

He was worried that Tan Jing did not know how to cook, so he bought a lot of instant food. If Tan Jing was really hungry, she could at least have something to eat.

“Is there anything else you need? Let me know and I’ll get it for you. Are these light bulbs in the house good enough? Do you want me to install a light in the courtyard?” Cheng Gu said.

“I don’t need anything else. You’ve already bought enough! I haven’t even returned you the money for the surgery and now I owe you so much,” Tan Jing said embarrassedly.

“I don’t want your money. I just want to help you. You don’t have to return anything to me. You just have to live well,” Cheng Gu said with a smile.

Tan Jing looked at Cheng Gu and shook her head helplessly. She was not doing well at all. It all felt so terrible, like there was no situation that could be worse than this.

Cheng Gu could also tell what was on Tan Jing’s mind and asked softly, “Can you tell me about what happened to you recently? Perhaps I can help you share your burden?”

Previously, Tan Jing had already told Cheng Gu about her issues in the Xia and Tan families. Not only did Cheng Gu not despise her, but he even helped her come up with strategies. If not for Cheng Gu, she would still be at her wits’ end!

She was no longer guarded against Cheng Gu. In fact, she trusted him more than she trusted Xia Wen. She told him about what happened over the past few days and even about those past grudges. She even told him about how Xu Lan treated her badly when she first married into the Xia family.

As Tan Jing spoke, she felt more and more aggrieved and slowly started crying. Cheng Gu held Tan Jing’s hands and said with heartache, “Why don’t you divorce him? It’s too torturous for you.”

“No! I can’t divorce him!” Tan Jing said in fear.

Her wealth and status were all given by the Xia family. She had seen what happened between Xia He and Kong Lu after their divorce. Xia He had forced Kong Lu to pay off all the debts he owed her for so many years. If Xia Wen divorced her, she would also have to bear a huge debt. The thing was firstly, she did not have a job now and secondly, she did not have any money. It was already a problem for her to support herself, so how would she be able to repay her debts?
No matter what Xia Wen said to her, she would not ask for a divorce. Unless they wanted her to die at the Xia family’s door, they could forget about chasing her out of the Xia family!

“Then do you still want children now? If you don’t have children, nothing in your life will change,” Cheng Gu said.

“But my husband is very averse to this matter. How can I broach the topic again?” Tan Jing asked with uncertainty.

Cheng Gu thought for a moment and said, “Since you can’t adopt children from either your family or their family, then just go to the orphanage. There are so many orphanages out there. There must be at least one baby who’s suitable for you.”

If Tan Jing’s living arrangement was still the same as before, the orphanage might be comfortable to let her adopt a child. However, she was living in a village now and it was already a problem for her to provide for herself. How could she take care of a child? How could it even be possible?
