After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! Chapter 481 - It Is All My Fault

Chapter 481: It Is All My Fault

“How long has she been inside? Why isn’t there any news yet? Where’s your aunt? Where’s Xiao Fang? Isn’t she in this hospital too! Hurry up and go look for her! Go quickly!” Xu Lan grabbed Xia Zhe and wanted to go look for Xia Fang.

Xia Zhe quickly held Xu Lan’s hand and said, “Aunt is already inside and she’s already treating Qiao Mei. Mother, please sit down first.”

Xu Lan slowly sat on the chair and stared at the red light outside the operating theater. She only hoped that Qiao Mei could come out of this without any issues. It would be even better if she was able to hold on to her grandchildren.

“Sister-in-law, don’t be anxious. Qiao Mei will be out soon. Good people are blessed by the heavens. She’s lucky so she will definitely be fine,” Liu Fen said as she hugged the downcast Xu Lan.

Xu Lan sobbed softly and leaned weakly on Liu Fen’s shoulder. She still could not believe that what happened today was real.

“Why did I treat Qiao Mei so badly! I look down on her just because she’s a daughter-in-law who’s a villager! It’s really my fault. If anything happens to her, I’ll regret it for the rest of my life,” Xu Lan said sadly.

“Sister-in-law, you didn’t do it on purpose. Don’t worry, Qiao Mei will definitely be fine. Isn’t Xia Fang still inside? You have to believe in them,” Liu Fen said.

As Qiao Mei was from the countryside and she was Xia Zhe’s own choice for a wife, Xu Lan had always held a grudge against Qiao Mei for this matter. At that time, there were clearly better girls who could marry into the family, but Xia Zhe went off to get married on his own. Not only that, Qiao Mei was already pregnant when he announced it to the family. He simply just disrespected his mother with regard to this matter.

Therefore, she vented all her anger and frustration on Qiao Mei. Actually, she liked Qiao Mei very much. Qiao Mei was not only obedient and sensible and capable, she also did beautiful needlework. When Qiao Mei first came, Qiao Mei had given her a violet-colored dress. In order to make things difficult for Qiao Mei, she pretended that she did not like the dress and casually threw it to one side. Later on, it was Liu Fen who helped her put the dress away.

She also liked Qiao Mei’s two babies very much. Sometimes, when Xia Mao did not come back at night, she would keep the light on and make clothes for the babies late into the night. During the day, she was afraid that others would see her doing it, so she only made them at night.

She had also gone to the department store to take a look at the tiny clothes sold there, but most of them were not made of pure cotton and did not look too good. She felt that it was better if she made these things herself. She had already prepared the clothes for the two children, as well as brand new shoes and bedding.

She had not even given all these things to Qiao Mei, so how could such a thing happen!

Could this be the heavens punis.h.i.+ng her!

“Mother, don’t worry. Qiao Mei will definitely be fine,” Xia Zhe comforted her patiently.

Even though he knew that this was all part of Qiao Mei’s plan, he was still worried as well. After everything was done, Kong Lu had called him up and told him all the details.

There was no such thing as a 100% success rate in the world. What would he do if anything happened to Qiao Mei?

Not long after, Xia Wen and Xia Mao also came by. Even Xia Jun came to the hospital personally to see how Qiao Mei was doing.

Xia Zhe went forward to support the aged Xia Jun. During this period of time, Xia Jun had caught a cold and was not feeling well.

Before Xia Zhe could get close, Xia Jun raised his walking stick and swung it at him. This blow almost broke his bones. Xia Wen hurriedly held on to Xia Zhe and checked him for injuries.

“Grandfather! What are you doing!” Xia Wen said.

“I’m beating up this good-for-nothing! He can’t even take care of his wife! How can you still have the cheek to stand here! How did Qiao Mei get injured! How can a living person just fall into the lake! Tell me, how did you take care of her!” Xia Jun pointed at Xia Zhe and scolded him.

“Grandfather, it’s all my fault. You can hit me.” Xia Zhe lowered his head and stood in front of Xia Jun.

“How am I supposed to answer Brother Qiao! This girl married you and got pregnant with your children! Now she’s lying in the operating theater of the hospital! Will Qiao Mei wake up if I hit you! Can hitting you make what happened today not happen again! Didn’t I tell you to take good care of Qiao Mei!” Xia Jun stomped his feet in anger.

He and Qiao Qiang were the best of brothers. Qiao Qiang had saved his life in the past. Now, his grandson did not protect Qiao Qiang’s granddaughter well and even put her life in danger. He felt so guilty towards Qiao Qiang.

Xia Zhe knelt on the ground with a “plop” sound. He was afraid that Xia Jun would faint from anger, so it was better for him to apologize first.
