After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!
924 No More Secrets
Tan Jing did not seem to have seen what happened and continued to throw a tantrum.
"Xia Wen, do I mean anything to your family? Have you long forgotten that we have our own family! Do you think your presence in this house is not needed!" Tan Jing said.
Xia Wen continued to keep quiet and it made Tan Jing furious. She had never lost her cool or acted so crazy before.
"Say something!" Tan Jing roared.
Xia Wen endured the pain from the impact and said, "What do you want me to say… What's wrong with me helping my sister and sister-in-law?"
"Don't they know how to solve their own problems? We're all adults. Can't they even do such a simple thing!" Tan Jing looked at Xia Wen and questioned him.
It would not matter to Xia Wen if someone else said these words. However, when these words came out of Tan Jing's mouth, he wanted to laugh.
During the many years that they were married, the Tan family would ask Tan Jing for a lot of money every month. Every time, they would give all kinds of strange reasons. It was either because the eldest son's family was in trouble or something had happened to the second son's family. Every month, there would be an unlucky member of the Tan family who got into trouble. Xia Wen was already used to this.
The Xia family had found jobs for Tan Jing's older brothers. The Tan family took advantage of the Xia family in every way possible, but yet they still always slandered the Xia family and said that the Xia family was biased and did not treat Tan Jing well.
Qiao Mei had only just arrived in the capital and was not familiar with anything. Xia Zhe had also reiterated the favor he asked of Xia Wen to take good care of Qiao Mei in his absence. As for Xia He, Xia Wen had not seen her for a long time until she finally came back to the capital to live her own life well.
His younger siblings rarely came to trouble him for anything. Although he had to manage the Xia family's social circle and handle some political matters, this was not something that kept him busy all year round. On the other hand, the Tan family's greed was boundless and they never seemed to be satisfied.
"Then why can't your second brother handle his own matters?" Xia Wen said resignedly.
Tan Jing was stunned to the spot. What had her second brother done? She did not know anything at all. Could it be that her second brother had privately gone to look for Xia Wen?
"My second brother… My second brother must have run into some difficulties but did not want to look for me, so he went to look for you…" Tan Jing spoke vaguely.
Xia Wen smiled mockingly. It would have been better if her second brother had gone to look for him! The truth was something much more embarrassing!
"He went to look for my father and said that he was in a very difficult position. He said that if we did not help him, he'd be a dead man. He owed a huge gambling debt of about 3,000 dollars. He said that if the Xia family refused to give him this amount of money, he would die at the Xia family's door and let everyone know that the Xia family had forced their in-law to his death. He wanted to make the Xia family so embarrassed that we could no longer walk with our heads held high." Xia Wen looked at Tan Jing and repeated exactly what Xia Mao had told him word for word.
Tan Jing did not know about these things.
"Then… did you give my second brother the money?" Tan Jing asked carefully.
"If we didn't give it to him, do you think life would be so peaceful? Your family has been clamoring to move house, but isn't it your second brother who wants that? You must have received many phone calls this week, right?" Xia Wen said.
Tan Jing lowered her head out of shame. She did not know what to say to Xia Wen. She had never expected the Tan family to go overboard like this. She thought that them asking her for money was already the most shameless thing they could do, but she did not expect that they could do even more outrageous things.
Since they were on this topic today, Xia Wen did not intend to cover up for the Tan family anymore. He originally wanted to keep these things a secret forever and let Tan Jing feel less stressed. The Xia family could afford to use money and connections to help others and it did not affect them at all. However, he did not expect Tan Jing to use this as a reason to attack the Xia family's integrity.
"Your mother even brought your family members to look for Qiao Mei. She cried and made a fuss at Qiao Mei's door and asked Qiao Mei to give the house to your family, otherwise she would hang herself at Qiao Mei's door. Qiao Mei is more than eight months pregnant and my brother is currently out on a mission. He had asked me to take care of his family before he went off. Is there a problem with me helping my brother's wife?"
"Qiao Mei rarely takes the initiative to contact me. It's my younger sister who comes to tell me about these things. Qiao Mei is so busy with her own things now, so she doesn't have time to bother about anything else. Has my younger sister ever troubled us during those years when she was married? Is there anything wrong with her contacting me frequently now?"
