After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! Chapter 1661 Feeling Shy

Chapter 1661 Feeling Shy

"I thought that you have not settled your family's issues and that you would only be able to come over after some time. Mo Zhu is feeling so anxious at home. She almost wanted to head to the Xia family residence to look for you last night. Come in quickly," Mo Chou said amiably.

Qiao Mei raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at this… kindly Uncle Mo in front of her. Could it be that the liquor Xia Mao served him had some kind of soul swapping effect? They did not remember Mo Chou as being this kind of person.

That unsmiling Mo Chou from yesterday was probably all an act! If this was the real Mo Chou, then his acting yesterday was really quite good. Xia He could even learn acting from him!

"Are all of you alright! I have been so worried. Is anyone injured at home!" Mo Zhu asked as she rushed out of the house.

"Of course we're fine~ My eldest brother is so capable, how could anything happen to us?" Qiao Mei said with a grin.

Xia Wen felt a little shy and the tips of his ears turned a little red. It was one thing for Qiao Mei to show off at home, but why did she not know her place when she was in someone else's house? How could she speak so boastfully?

"Xia Zhe and the others are also at home, so there's nothing much I need to do," Xia Wen said humbly.

Mo Zhu did not dare to look at Xia Wen directly, worried that if Mo Chou saw it, he would make fun of her in the future.

"You shouldn't make such a long trip in the future. Just give me a call. I can come to your house to see you. Our house is located in the mountains and it's such a b.u.mpy journey here. What if it causes you discomfort?" Mo Zhu said worriedly as she looked at Qiao Mei's stomach.

"My baby is very strong! Don't worry!" Qiao Mei said as she stroked her stomach.

Ever since Li Gui and the children were safe and sound, Qiao Mei's health had improved a lot. With Xia Zhe by her side every day, her nightmares had also disappeared. All she wanted to do now was to quickly return to the military family compound to take a look at her vegetables. Those vegetables had just been planted not long ago and she did not know if there would be a lot of weeds growing when she returned.

Mo Chou returned to the kitchen to cook a few more dishes. Liu Shu had gone to the mountain behind the house for her morning exercises and had not returned yet, so everyone sat in the living room and waited quietly.

"I didn't expect your house to be so elegant. I also want to buy a piece of land here to build a house like this," Qiao Mei said enviously.

"You still want to buy more? You should hold off for a while! How much land and houses have you bought recently? If you continue like this, our family will definitely get investigated!" Xia He said helplessly.

Mo Zhu said nonchalantly, "How many houses can Qiao Mei buy? If she likes it, then buy it. The most important thing is for her to feel good. She's pregnant now!"

Xia He raised two fingers and waved them in front of Mo Zhu. Mo Zhu smiled and said, "Why are you getting so worked up over two houses!"

"It's 20 and they're all courtyard houses of different sizes. I haven't even included the land she bought," Xia He said.

Mo Zhu widened her eyes and stared at Qiao Mei. She had never imagined that there could be anyone in this world who could own 20 houses at the same time. Even the richest family in the capital, the He family, did not have such wealth.

"I… just like to buy houses!" Qiao Mei said embarra.s.sedly as she scratched the back of her head.

In fact, half of her 20-odd courtyard houses were courtesy of the He family. If not for He Ning buying three 100-year-old ginsengs from her at a high price, she would not have been able to buy so many! The money would turn moldy if it was left untouched! What was the point of having money and not spending it?

As the saying went, out with the old and in with the new~

"You should also hold her back in the future. She likes to buy houses whenever she's happy! Sometimes, she even buys houses for other people!" Xia He said.

"I buy houses for my family! What's wrong with that! Look at how good the location of your house is! If I hadn't bought it earlier on, how can you get such a good deal! You should praise me!" Qiao Mei said smugly.

"Fine, fine, fine. I'll praise you, alright? Magnate Qiao!" Xia He said.

Mo Zhu and the other two started whispering among themselves, trying to think of a way to curb Qiao Mei's bad habit of buying houses. However, Qiao Mei had free access to her money. If she went around buying houses secretly, they would not even know about it. They needed to get Xia Zhe to think of a way to deal with this matter.

The few of them chatted noisily and happily and Qiao Mei suddenly saw many trophies on the bookshelf. These were all trophies related to the Mathematical Olympiad and there were various ones of different sizes.

"Mo Zhu, you're so smart. You have so many trophies," Qiao Mei said in delight.
