After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! Chapter 1686 Married Well

Chapter 1686 Married Well

After they reached the courtyard house, Xia Wen played with the two children for a while before returning to work. Recently, they were busy with the foreign trade matters and his entire team had to keep working overtime. As the head of the team, he could not be too relaxed.

Mo Zhu was also busy at work recently. He also wanted to send Mo Zhu home at night!

After Qiao Mei chatted with Qiao Qiang for a while, she returned to the front yard. After thinking about it, she felt that there was no point for her to stay in the capital. The next morning, she asked the Xia family's chauffeur to send her and the two children back to the military family compound. Now that she had a car, it was easier for her to come and go. She did not need to wait for the bus if she wanted to go back to the capital.

"Oh my! What an imposing car! Whose car is it?" Liu Yun stood in front of the car and asked excitedly. As she spoke, she kept touching it. She liked it so much.

"I saw Qiao Mei come back in this car just now! It probably belongs to their family!" Zhang Cai said.

"Her husband is so capable! This is the first time I've seen such a nice car! If only that useless thing in my family can give me a car! I don't even need such a car, just an old sedan will do! It'll save me from having to take the bus every time I want to go to the county city. The bus is so crowded!" Liu Yun said with annoyance.

"That's so true! We're not lucky and the men we married are so disappointing. Look at Qiao Mei's husband! Sigh… When my husband comes back, I must nag him! Ask him to learn from Qiao Mei's husband!" Zhang Cai said.

After Qiao Mei settled the children down, she went to the courtyard. She had thought that it was too dusty on the mountain road so she wanted to wipe down the car properly. She did not expect a group of people to have gathered in front of the car in the blink of an eye.

"Ladies, what's wrong?" Qiao Mei asked curiously.

Liu Yun immediately said excitedly, "Qiao Mei! Your husband is so capable! You married really well. He made enough money to buy such a nice car for you!"

"No, this is not my husband's car. This is my grandfather's car," Qiao Mei explained with a smile.

Qiao Mei's grandfather?

Everyone looked at one another. They thought Qiao Mei was a girl from the countryside? If so, her grandfather must also be from the countryside. How could he have such a good car?

Although they were not very learned, they all knew that there were not many such cars in the country. Such a car needed to be allocated by the country! The country leaders drove such cars! They knew it from the photos in the newspapers!

"What has your grandfather done to receive this car?" Liu Yun asked.

"My grandfather is actually a retired soldier. He usually likes to fiddle with flowers and plants and also does some research on seeds. Some time ago, he donated a large batch of seeds to the country, about 100,000 pounds, to be used as the first business deal in foreign trade. That's why the country gave my grandfather this car," Qiao Mei said briefly.

If she explained it in too much detail, it would only arouse suspicion and make it seem like she was showing off. She just wanted to say something to dispel everyone's doubts.

Fortunately, Qiao Mei had gotten along quite well with everyone and they all believed what she said. In addition, she had helped w.a.n.g Nuo's family for so long, so Liu Yun and the others had long accepted Qiao Mei to be one of them.

"I never expected your grandfather to be so capable! How impressive!" Liu Yun said.

"How good are those seeds? Can they grow towering trees out of them? How did he get the country to give him a car?" Zhang Cai questioned.

"Hey! What do you mean by that! Don't you believe Qiao Mei!" Liu Yun glared at Zhang Cai unhappily.

Zhang Cai scratched her head in embarra.s.sment and said, "That's not what I mean! I'm just thinking maybe I can do something and get the country to send me a car too!"

"Do you think it's so easy to get a car! Don't you know your own capability? We haven't even gone to school much, so we don't have that kind of skills! We should just stay at home and take care of our children!" Liu Yun said.

Qiao Mei immediately stopped them and said, "Ladies, don't argue. I'm just riding on my grandfather's coattail. He's already so old and can't drive. That's why he gave it to me. I have actually given you those seeds previously. You can go home and try planting them yourself!"

Actually, the seeds which Qiao Mei gave them were the same seeds she gave to the Zhao Family Village back then. As long as Liu Yun and the others planted the seeds and she provided the saplings with some energy every day, the taste would naturally be the same as the seeds planted in the fields.
