After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

At dawn the next day, Qiao Mei dragged Xia He to the study to sign the agreement. Actually, she had drafted two sets of agreements long ago and was just waiting for Xia He and Xia Wen to sign them. She had waited for this day for too long.

"Sign it quickly!" Qiao Mei said excitedly as she slammed the agreement on the table.

Xia He looked at Qiao Mei's anxious expression and laughed out loud. She had never seen a seller who looked even happier than the buyer!

"Little ancestor, do you know what time it is? The rooster in Grandpa Qiao's backyard hasn't even started crowing yet, but you actually drag me here to sign the agreement! Moreover, the paper looks a little yellowish. You must have been waiting for this day for a long time," Xia He said helplessly as she picked up the document.

"Yes! If you don't sign it, I'm going to take it back!" Qiao Mei threatened.

Qiao Mei was worried that Xia He would go back on her word or that something would happen. She even regretted not signing the agreement immediately yesterday. This way, Xia He would never be able to back out!

Xia He signed the agreement without even reading it. Qiao Mei happily held it up and asked, "You didn't even look at it. Aren't you afraid that I'll cheat you?"

"What's there to be afraid of? If you lie to me, then I'll just stay at your house for the rest of my life. I won't get married either! What can you do! Besides, the helpers and children are here, as well as Grandpa Qiao and Auntie Li who like me. I'm more than happy to cling to you!" Xia He said shamelessly.

"How dare you not get married! Big Brother Deng may even come and chop me up with a kitchen knife. You should quickly marry him!" Qiao Mei said disdainfully.

At the mention of marriage, Xia He still felt a little uneasy. Actually, it was just a matter of going to the community center to get the documents stamped. When she got married to Kong Lu, she was not so afraid. However, when it came to Deng Fan, she was actually a little afraid of getting married.

"You… you're not afraid, are you?" Qiao Mei asked as she looked into Xia He's eyes.

"Nonsense! Is there anything I'm afraid of!" Xia He said stubbornly.

"I still have a lot of antiques, calligraphy and paintings. When you go to the Deng family to visit Uncle and Auntie, you can bring a few with you. They like these things very much, don't they? I'm guessing that they won't like those gold, silver or jade artifacts. These calligraphy and paintings should be more to their liking," Qiao Mei said.

Xia He knew nothing about such things. She suddenly felt that Qiao Mei was like her savior. In the future, if she did not have any suitable gifts for Deng Rui and Jiang Shu, she could just come to Qiao Mei's place to look for something. Qiao Mei definitely would have something that they would like.

Qiao Mei seemed to know what Xia He was thinking and quickly added, "Hey! I only have that many things. Don't keep giving them away!"

At this moment, an ancient painting might only cost a few dollars and not worth much at all, but in the future, it would be a priceless treasure. The things that Xia He wanted to give away were worth millions!

Qiao Mei found it acceptable to give away less than 10 items. If she had to give away everything in her house, then she would go and weep at the Deng family's main door!

"I know! I can't possibly move all your assets over there!" Xia He said helplessly.

"Who knows if you can do such a thing…" Qiao Mei muttered softly.

Xia He knocked on the table and asked, "I signed the agreement without paying. If I don't pay you, what can you do?"

"What's there to be afraid of! Deng Fan's pay is still with me and I haven't given it to him yet!" Qiao Mei said as she patted her chest.

"That's not a lot of money. How can it compare to the price of the house," Xia He said.

Qiao Mei raised one finger in front of Xia He. Xia He thought for a moment and said, "1,000 dollars?"

Qiao Mei shook her head.

Xia He was stunned for a moment before she suddenly stood up and yelled out in shock, "10,000! Qiao Mei, are you crazy!"

"What? This is the pay which Big Brother Deng deserves. Why are you so shocked?" Qiao Mei covered her ears and said innocently.

"The most that Deng Fan was paid was only 800 dollars and it was for half a year's work. You actually want to pay him 10,000 dollars. Are you crazy!" Xia He said.

Perhaps Qiao Mei was really too rich and had forgotten that in this era, one could buy a sausage and a loaf of bread for 20 cents. One could even buy one pound of meat with 20 cents!

A salary of 10,000 dollars was indeed an astronomical figure. Some people would not even be able to save up 10,000 dollars in their entire lives. If Qiao Mei was always so generous and other people found out about this, how would she be able to ask for help in the future? People would definitely raise the price when it came to her.
