After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

Chapter 2322: Make a Deal

Zhou Hua must not have expected to hit the jackpot this time round. She did not have to worry about her living expenses for a year!

Xia Xing completed the handover of his work very quickly and left the capital after two days. He simply left Shao Yin behind, completely alone and helpless. Qiao Mei and the others gathered some of their children's belongings and arranged for the items to be sent over to her as a show of concern from the eldest and second sons' families.

As the days passed, Shao Yin looked more and more haggard and she did not have the energy to go and hassle the Xia family members anymore. When the child fell asleep for a moment, she took the opportunity to go to the town center to buy some groceries. The moment she returned home, she realized that something was wrong. Why was the door unlocked?

"Who's inside the house! Xiao Hai!" Shao Yin dropped all her things and rushed into the house.

There were two men sitting on the brick bed inside and one of them was holding Xia Hai in his arms. However, Xia Hai was too quiet. Shao Yin had never seen Xia Hai sleeping so soundly.

"Who are you! What did you do to my child!" Shao Yin asked anxiously.

"You'd better not act rashly or I'll break his neck immediately," one of the men said.

Shao Yin immediately took two steps back and said calmly, "Fine... fine... I won't move... Don't hurt my child... I beg you not to hurt him... I'll give you whatever you want!"

"Cough, cough, cough... You should know who we are. I'm from the Huang family. My name is Huang Zhong," Huang Zhong said weakly.

Shao Yin could remember the Huang family members, but the two men in front of her looked very different from the faces in her memories. She recalled that the men from the Huang family were all high-spirited and energetic, but the two men in front of her... were like shriveled brown paper bags that would tear open with a gust of wind.

"Yes, I remember. You are from the family that my former eldest cousin-in-law married into," Shao Yin said.

"Your memory is quite good. We're not here to hurt you. We just want to make a deal with you," Huang Zhong said.

"What do you want?" Shao Yin asked.

Huang Zhong did not speak immediately. He walked shakily to the table to pour himself a glass of water and then drank it. After that, he took a deep breath and said, "You are so poor now. You must not be doing well, right?"

"What does it have to do with you whether I'm doing well or not! Your entire family is not doing well! Your entire family is going to die!" Shao Yin pointed at Huang Zhong and scolded him.

This was because Huang Zhong had hit a very sore spot in her heart. She was definitely not doing well now. It could even be said that without Xia Xing around, her life was almost unbearable!

"My entire family... is indeed going to die," Huang Zhong said bluntly.

Tan Jing had fed them enough poison to make them suffer for the rest of their lives and wish they were dead instead. They had sold all their assets and sought help from doctors everywhere, but none of the doctors could do anything for them. At this moment, only Qiao Mei's medicinal wine could save their lives.

"I understand now. You want me to go and look for Qiao Mei," Shao Yin said firmly.

"Yes, that's why we're here," Huang Zhong said.

"Why should I help you? Besides, why don't you go and look for other members of the Xia family? I don't have any say in the Xia family and none of them will listen to me. It's simply a fantasy in your mind if you want me to go and ask Qiao Mei for the medicinal wine. I can't even enter her house. You should go and look for someone else," Shao Yin said.

"You can, because your son is still in our hands. Don't you want to take revenge on Qiao Mei? Qiao Mei is the cause of everything that happened to you. She caused your husband to be at odds with you and made your life so difficult. If not for her putting a stop to your plans, you would probably be the eldest young madam of the Xia family's eldest branch family now," Huang Zhong said slowly, every word poking at Shao Yin's sore spot.

Shao Yin was a little tempted. She would not be able to do anything to Qiao Mei on her own, but what if the Huang family joined forces with her?

"What do you want me to do?" Shao Yin asked.

"We want six bottles of medicinal wine. It doesn't matter if you steal them, snatch them or kneel down and beg her for them. We must get the medicinal wine," Huang Zhong said.

"I can help you ask her if there's any for sale," Shao Yin said.

"For sale? Qiao Mei's medicinal wine is priceless and no one can get their hands on it. Moreover, our Huang family is no longer doing as well as before and we don't have that much money anymore," Huang Zhong said helplessly.

"You still want medicinal wine when you don't have money? I can't do it then. Look for someone else," Shao Yin said.

Huang Zhong looked at Huang Mian, who was holding the child. Huang Mian immediately took out a small bottle from his pocket and fed the contents to Xia Hai. Shao Yin rushed to Huang Mian in a panic and pulled the child over to her side, roaring, "What did you feed him!"

"It's your fault for wanting to do this the hard way. You won't listen to us if things don't get to this point," Huang Mian said.
