817 Exquisite Choker

Xia Wen did not stop them from leaving. He maintained a smile on his face until they all left. After closing the door, he silently collected the crockery and cutlery and cleaned up the house. He was not the kind of person to let Tan Jing do all these things alone.

Tan Jing continued to stand at the kitchen door in a daze and looked at Xia Wen sadly. The man in front of her liked children. Xia Wen despised her for not being able to have children, but he had not said it to her explicitly just to save her the embarrassment.

Even after Xia Wen tidied up the house, Tan Jing still stared at him blankly like a statue.

“You… should rest early,” Xia Wen said after some hesitation.

!!

“So you like children?” Tan Jing asked calmly.

Xia Wen did not want to lie to Tan Jing. He really liked children very much and had been very envious of other people with children for so many years. However, he would not blame Tan Jing for all these things. This kind of thing was about fate. Back then, Xia Zhe had gotten Qiao Mei pregnant after one night. That was fate at work.

“Yes, I like children, but it doesn’t matter if we have children or not. You should rest early.” After saying that, Xia Wen went into the bedroom.

Tan Jing leaned against the door frame and slowly collapsed to the ground. Xia Wen finally admitted it himself.

It was all Qiao Mei’s fault! If Qiao Mei had not married Xia Zhe and entered the Xia family, she would not have ended up in this state!

If not for Qiao Mei’s pregnancy, Xia Wen would not have liked children so much. Her family also would not have come to ask for the house, let alone curse her for being an infertile woman.

A fierce glint appeared in Tan Jing’s eyes. She must definitely make Qiao Mei pay the price.

The next day, they both went to work as usual. However, Tan Jing and Xia Wen began to interact less. Xia Wen did not find it strange at all. Tan Jing needed to work on her own issues. Over the years, they had already quarreled too many times over the matter of having children.

Every time, Xia Wen would be the one to comfort Tan Jing and help her deal with the Tan family’s matters so that she would not feel burdened. This time, he would let Tan Jing calm down on her own.

Xia He came to Qiao Mei’s place to hang out as usual. For some reason, during this period of time, she really liked spending time here. She always felt a sense of familiarity and leisure in this courtyard.

“Qiao Mei, I’m here!” Xia He quickly walked into the courtyard with a big roast chicken.

“Roast chicken! How do you know I want to eat it! I’ve been talking about eating it for the past two days!” Qiao Mei’s eyes were bright, as if there were stars hidden in them.

Actually, she was not just craving roast chicken. She craved everything and just wanted to take a bite of every dish.

Perhaps it was because her babies were greedy. She would not admit that she was the one who wanted to eat it!

“Aunt asked me to come and ask you to go to her place for a checkup in the afternoon. She said we should also bring Grandpa Qiao and your mother along, and the children as well. I don’t think Zhang Miao is walking that well,” Xia He said worriedly.

Qiao Mei also noticed this. Perhaps it was because the girl had been bedridden for a long time and was not used to walking anymore. Those children had probably never undergone a physical examination before and it would be good for them to get checked out.

“Alright, let’s do as you say.” Qiao Mei smiled sweetly.

Xia He mysteriously took out a red brocade box from behind her. There was a gift for Qiao Mei inside. Recently, Kong Lu had returned her a lot of money. She had been thinking about what to give Qiao Mei, so she bought this necklace. It was even made of gold and jade! It had cost her a lot of money.

“What is this?” Qiao Mei asked.

“I noticed that you like jade more, so I went to the antique market to buy you a gold and jade necklace. See if you like it,” Xia He said.

Qiao Mei looked at Xia He obsequiously and said sweetly, “Oh my~ I like anything that elder sister gives me~”

Xia He was so shocked by this that she quickly sat back and said disdainfully, “Just behave normally. I want to beat you up when you look like this. Hurry up and open it.”

It was a choker. The shop owner said that it was an item from more than 500 years ago and was a piece of real antique. There were figures of a dragon and a phoenix made of golden threads on it. In the middle, there was a black ink jade the size of a pigeon egg and of excellent transparency.

Qiao Mei gently touched the piece of jade on the choker. The energy was strong and they were mutually attracted to each other. This thing was definitely of excellent quality, second only to the necklace from Wu Min.
