After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!
Chapter 2445: Xia Mo Returns HomeChapter 2445: Xia Mo Returns Home
“I have a new grandaunt?” Qiao Mei asked.
“What nonsense are you talking about!” Gao Lin tapped Qiao Mei’s head and said dotingly, “Our entire family has officially moved to the capital. The business in Hu City is completely on track and I can return to the capital to retire!”
“Really? Then Uncle is finally reunited with Cousin Xia Wan. You don’t have to live separately and always rush back and forth again,” Qiao Mei said to Gao Long with a smile.
Gao Long looked at Qiao Mei hesitantly and finally said softly, “I have come here today to seek your opinion on something. I want to bring Xia Mo back here, but I don’t know if I should send her to my mother-in-law or for her to grow up in my family.”
“I thought you wanted to ask me something important. Xia Mo is not a child anymore and she can make her own decisions. Can’t you just ask her for her opinion when the time comes?” Qiao Mei said.
“It won’t work! Xia Mo is a sensible child. She doesn’t want to tell us many things as she’s afraid of troubling us, so…” Gao Long said as he looked at Qiao Mei meaningfully.
Qiao Mei patted Gao Long’s shoulder and said, “Got it. She can stay at my place.”
“You know me best!” Gao Long said happily.
“I will only take care of her for a month! After a month, your family will have to live together cordially!” Qiao Mei said.
“Understood!” Gao Long said.
Gao Lin looked at Qiao Mei kindly and said, “When my house is ready, let’s have a nice meal as a family. It’ll be lively!”
“No problem!” Qiao Mei said.
Everyone was finally gathered together.
Xia Mo’s return trip was planned very quickly. She boarded a plane back to the capital from Country M one week later. After this extended period of time, she had grown up a lot and become much more mature.
Among the staff in Country M, apart from Auntie Wang and Butler Xu who had to stay back to take care of the property and farm, Auntie Zhang and Auntie Cui returned to the capital with Xia Mo. Gao Long bought apartments for them, as well as found good jobs for their family members.
When Qiao Mei and the rest stayed in Country M, Auntie Zhang and Auntie Cui were their long-time helpers. Everyone had long developed feelings for one another and could not bear to part with one another. It would be difficult for Qiao Mei and the rest to find new helpers whom they liked, so they had discussed the issue with the two women and asked if they would like to come back with Xia Mo.
Fortunately, they wanted to return home too, so it was also considered a good deed done.
As soon as Xia Mo arrived, Gao Long brought her to Qiao Mei’s house. Xia Mo was not too distant from Qiao Mei, but Qiao Mei could feel that Xia Mo was still a little reserved.
“This is your room. I’ve already gotten someone to clean it up. Tell me if you need anything and I’ll get someone to help you. Your mother’s house is still under renovation, so you have to stay with me for the time being,” Qiao Mei said as she held Xia Mo’s hand.
Xia Mo only nodded silently but did not say anything. However, Qiao Mei could tell from her actions that she actually wanted to get closer to Qiao Mei.
Just like that, the two of them did not disturb each other for three days. One day, Xia Mo finally wanted to chat with Qiao Mei.
“Aunt-in-law, can I come and hang out with you?” Xia Mo asked carefully as she stood at the door of the study.
“Of course you can! Come in!” Qiao Mei called out.
Xia Mo liked how the study was furnished. After admiring the room, she sat opposite Qiao Mei and asked, “Aunt-in-law, why is it that you have not asked me many questions like the others?”
“You’ll naturally tell me when you want to talk about it. Look, aren’t we at the point now?,” Qiao Mei said gently.
Xia Mo nodded happily and said, “I actually like Uncle Gao Long a lot. I also hope that he and my mother can live a good life together. After all… my father is not a good person and I know that, but I have this feeling that my newborn brother will snatch away my mother’s love for me. I’m a little scared and I don’t know how to face them.”
“This is very normal. Don’t blame yourself. The fact that you have such thoughts means that Gao Long and Xia Wan didn’t communicate with you well,” Qiao Mei said.
“No! They talked to me before! But I didn’t tell them the truth…” Xia Mo said.
“It must be because you don’t want to make things difficult for your mother,” Qiao Mei said.
“Yes,” Xia Mo said.
Qiao Mei looked at Xia Mo and asked, “Gao Long and your mother love you very much, but they will also love your newborn brother very much. The two of you are equally important to them and there is no difference at all. The two of you are siblings.”
“Really?” Xia Mo’s lifeless eyes lit up again.
“Of course! Gao Long is so anxious because you are back! He’s always worried that he can’t do things for you well and that you won’t be satisfied with him. He begged me for a long time to allow you to stay with me. After all, he doesn’t know if you’re willing to have a heart-to-heart talk with him. He’s also scared!” Qiao Mei said.
