After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! - Chapter 2385

Chapter 2385: Going to Get Married

Xia Zhe was reminded of the past again. The current Qiao Mei was a completely different person from the Qiao Mei back then.

“I went through everything willingly,” Xia Zhe said as he hugged Qiao Mei.

Qiao Mei also felt a little scared whenever she interacted with these plants since she was not really a very meticulous person. If she really got poisoned, it would be the end of her.

However, she had recently uncovered a bangle among the jewelry left behind by Gao Tao. Whoever wore that bangle would become immune to poison and would also be able to sense the presence of poisonous substances in the surrounding environment.

“Alright, I thought the family has asked us to go back because of some issues at home today? Let’s go and pack our things,” Qiao Mei said as she patted Xia Zhe on the back.

Xia Zhe had already packed whatever they needed. He drove Qiao Mei back to the Xia family’s house. Today, the family intended to discuss the wedding plans for Xia Yuan and Sun Yuan.

Everyone sat around and waited for Xia Yuan to speak. However, for some reason, Xia Yuan was silent for a long time. His expression was also very solemn, as if he was hiding something from everyone.

“Xiao Yuan, if you have run into any issues, just let us know. We’ll all help you think of a way,” Xia He said.

“Can… can Sun Yuan and I just register our marriage and not organize a ceremony?” Xia Yuan said.

Before Xia Jun spoke, Liu Fen immediately said unhappily, “No! Don’t you know that I’ve been waiting for you to get married for a long time! Especially after what happened with the Zhou family! My relatives and friends are just waiting to laugh at me! You must organize a grand wedding ceremony! I want everyone to see clearly! My son’s wife is the best!”

“Be quiet! Father hasn’t even said anything yet!” Xia Yao said as he quickly grabbed Liu Fen.

Liu Fen looked at Xia Jun and continued, “I’m sorry, Father. I get very agitated when it comes to this issue. Xia Yuan is the last unmarried child in our family. I can’t accept such an arrangement.”

Xia Jun waved his hand at Liu Fen to ask her to sit down and calm down. After thinking for a long time, Xia Jun looked at Xia Yuan and asked, “Why don’t you want to organize a wedding ceremony? Whose idea is it?”

“Sun Yuan and I decided on this after having a discussion,” Xia Yuan said.

“Our Xia family can be considered a big family with many family members. You need to organize a wedding ceremony, but we can talk about the details. Give me a logical reason for why you are making this decision,” Xia Jun said.

Xia Yuan scratched his head in embarrassment and said, “Sun Yuan and I are just starting out in our careers and we don’t have much savings. The two of us did some calculations and realized that we won’t have much money left after buying our matrimonial home. We’re thinking the family can just have a simple meal together to celebrate the occasion. As for the wedding ceremony… the two of us can’t afford to pay for it.”

“What kind of reason is this! I have money! I’m your mother! Isn’t it my duty to organize the wedding ceremony for you!” Liu Fen said.

“But… we don’t want to rely on our family to pay for our stuff,” Xia Yuan said.

Qiao Mei narrowed her eyes and stared at Xia Yuan for a long time. Xia Jun could tell that Qiao Mei had something to ask. He looked at Qiao Mei and said, “Mei Mei, what do you think?”

The families of the Xia family’s eldest and second sons had always got along well. Since no one from the third son’s family was here today, Qiao Mei could boldly say what she was thinking.

“Xia Yuan, is this solely your idea or is it something that the two of you came up with?” Qiao Mei asked.

“We decided on this after having a discussion,” Xia Yuan said honestly.

“In that case, during your discussion, who was the one who brought up this topic? Who advocated making this decision?” Qiao Mei asked again.

By now, everyone present understood what Qiao Mei meant. If this was Xia Yuan’s idea, they could still try to persuade him. After all, most people would only have one wedding ceremony in one’s lifetime. However, if it was Sun Yuan’s idea, then her intention might just be to make the Xia family think that she was not someone who was eyeing the family’s money.

“It’s… her…” Xia Yuan said as he lowered his head.

“Alright, then I have nothing else to say,” Qiao Mei said.

“Cousin-in-law, do you think that she’s not a good person?” Xia Yuan asked.

“She’s fine, but you need to organize the wedding ceremony. After all, although it’s the two of you getting married, there are still two families involved. We have to show her parents our sincerity,” Qiao Mei said.

“Yes, Qiao Mei is right. Your father and I have the money to pay for the wedding ceremony!” Liu Fen said.

“Alright, then I’ll do what you say,” Xia Yuan said.

“It’s time to fix a date for us to meet her parents. Let’s set the wedding date for the two of you,” Xia Jun said.

“Thank you, Grandfather!” Xia Yuan said happily.

Liu Fen looked at the whole family and felt a little emotional. Those family members of her generation were already old since even Xia Yuan was about to get married soon. It was so good to have the whole family together and she felt that the weight on her heart was finally lifted. However, she did not expect the Sun family to be so difficult to deal with.
