1072 Look for the Tan Family

“What’s so good about that! Don’t spout nonsense! At my age, I still don’t have a grandchild yet!” Xu Lan said.

Xia He quickly grabbed Xu Lan’s hand and placed it on Qiao Mei’s stomach as she said, “Yes you do! Here! Look, isn’t your eldest grandchild here?”

She was worried that someone would mention her divorce again. Ever since she divorced Kong Lu, people around her kept asking questions about it. Whenever she happened to meet someone she knew, there were numerous questions thrown at her. Many people were anxiously waiting to introduce a partner to her.

To put it nicely, they were worried about her future happiness. To put it bluntly, they were just eyeing the Xia family’s prestige and wanted to build a relationship with the Xia family by having Xia He marry into their family.

“That’s right, I’m about to become a grandmother soon! My happy days are coming!” Xu Lan said with a smile.

Tan Jing was the only person who sat silently at one side. Ever since Tan Jing arrived at Qiao Mei’s house, Xu Lan had not even looked at her once or even said a word to her. Everyone kept praising Qiao Mei for being a good daughter-in-law, but no one made any mention of Xu Lan’s other daughter-in-law, Tan Jing.

All of them treated her like she was invisible. Other than Xia Wen who would occasionally come to check on her, everyone else avoided her like she was a sewage rat.

“Mother… I’m not feeling so well. I’ll go into the room and rest for a while,” Tan Jing went over to Xu Lan and whispered.

Xu Lan flicked her hand nonchalantly and did not even speak to Tan Jing. In her heart, Xu Lan still felt disgusted with Tan Jing. It was not because of the issue about having children, but because Tan Jing had really gone overboard in the way she treated Xia Wen some time ago. It was time to suppress the Tan family’s arrogance and let them know who had the upper hand in this in-law relationship.

The Xia family had helped the Tan family so many times over the years, both openly and secretly. However, not only were they ungrateful, they even belittled the Xia family time and time again, almost causing the Xia family to get into trouble. If Zhou Hua was considered a danger to the family, then Tan Jing was not far behind her.

“Hey! Eldest Sister-in-law, is there still no good news from Tan Jing this year? Have you asked Xia Wen to go for a checkup? Can it be Xia Wen who has a problem?” Liu Fen asked softly.

“There’s nothing wrong with Xia Wen. He secretly came to look for me before. We did a checkup for him and concluded that there’s nothing wrong with him,” Xia Fang said.

“It’s not like I can talk about this issue. Previously, I wanted to bring Tan Jing to see Xia Fang, but before I could elaborate, she said that I was blaming her even though it was not even important to Xia Wen. So I stopped caring about it,” Xu Lan said.

Liu Fen stole a glance at the figure of the departing Tan Jing and said unhappily, “I just know the problem is with Tan Jing! How can our Xia Wen be the problem! Seriously, she has wasted Xia Wen’s time for so many years! Is she going to let Xia Wen remain childless for the rest of his life?”

Xu Lan shook her head resignedly. Her children had their own lives to live. She could not interfere in this matter and did not want to say anything more. Xia Wen was not a child anymore and knew how to decide for himself. It was not as if she could force Xia Wen to get a divorce and find another wife!

A child was the fruit borne out of love between a couple. If there was no love, it was better not to have a child. Otherwise, the child would have a tough life after being born.

Tan Jing did not go very far. She stood quietly around the corner and listened to the people in the courtyard talking about her. She just knew that everyone could not stand her! All of them despised her for being infertile! She knew that the moment she left, everyone would definitely talk about her.

After eavesdropping for a long time, Tan Jing made up her mind. She left Qiao Mei’s house without looking back and did not even tell anyone where she was going. She went to the entrance of the alley and took the bus all the way to the Tan family’s house.

After what happened today, she had made up her mind to adopt that child. As long as she had a child, she would be able to gain a foothold in the Xia family. As long as this child’s surname was Xia and he acknowledged Xia Wen as his father, his bloodline did not matter.

The only thing Tan Jing desperately wanted to do now was to prove that she could be as useful as Qiao Mei, so that Xu Lan would value her and see that she could also contribute to the Xia family.

When Tan Jing reached the main door, she kept pounding the door knocker. The deafening sound could be heard from a long way away.

“Who is it! It’s the new year, do you have to do this! Why are you knocking so incessantly! Are you trying to drive us to our graves!” Jiang Yi said angrily.
