After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!-Chapter 1367 - Buy New Clothes
1367 Buy New Clothes
The Zhao family definitely would not follow Qiao Mei’s instructions obediently. Whenever Qiao Mei thought about the type of seeds they would harvest by replanting the harvested seeds, she felt like cheering. She very much looked forward to seeing the looks on the Zhao family members’ faces when that happened.
Qiao Mei then returned to the study and flipped through all her books on plants. The knowledge from her other life was not enough to support her in the research and development of what she wanted to do. She needed to have an even deeper understanding of the nature and characteristics of plants. Only then would she be able to develop the best hybrid seeds.
After another two weeks, spring finally arrived. Zhao Fei came to look for Qiao Mei to pick up the planting seeds. Qiao Mei gave Zhao Fei 300 pounds of hybrid planting seeds based on the total amount submitted by all the families.
Zhao Fei and the rest of the villagers had heard of hybrid seeds, but they had only planted hybrid corn before. This was their first time seeing hybrid seeds!
“The eventual output should be about 180,000 pounds of harvested seeds. I hope that the actual amount I receive won’t be too different from this estimate. If there’s a substantial shortfall, then we may not be able to work together anymore in the future,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.
Actually, Qiao Mei was not telling the truth. To be precise, there should be 183,600 pounds of harvested seeds. After her repeated tests during this period of time, she could already come out with very accurate estimates.
Zhao Fei nodded. He would definitely give these seeds all his attention. They were his “lifeblood”!
As the saying went, blocking one’s path to wealth was akin to killing one’s parents. Anyone who blocked his path to earning money was no different from trying to kill him.
Qiao Mei stayed at home and did nothing for a few days. She heard from Sister Feng that Deng Fan had come to look for Xia He not long ago and the two of them had reconciled. She had been so busy with the matter of the seeds recently that she could even forget to eat, so she did not notice this matter at all. She did not expect Xia He to have thought things through so quickly.
“Qiao Mei! Are you at home! Come with me to buy clothes! Qiao Mei, come out!” Xia He shouted as soon as she entered the house. Qiao Mei quickly walked out of the study.
“Madam, my two little babies are still sleeping. If you do this, the two of them will get up and cause trouble,” Qiao Mei said helplessly.
Xia He hurriedly covered her mouth and quickly walked over to Qiao Mei. “I’m sorry, I’m just too excited. I hope I didn’t wake them up…”
Qiao Mei shook her head. Xia Wen had been very busy recently and did not come to carry Xia Xing around the house. Xia Xing slept especially soundly and could fall asleep even without anyone carrying her. Qiao Mei had already corrected all her fussy habits.
“Nowadays, these two children sleep like piglets. They won’t get up even when there’s thunder. Don’t worry,” Qiao Mei said.
“That’s good. Come shopping with me to buy new clothes! Let’s go! If we don’t go now, it’ll be too late!” Xia He said excitedly.
“Didn’t I make two sets of clothes for you during the new year? Why do you still need to buy clothes?” Qiao Mei looked at Xia He and asked curiously. During this period of time, Xia He’s purchases had almost filled up an entire room and yet she still wanted to go shopping.
“No! It’s almost Xia Xing’s wedding day. We must look more outstanding than them! You should wear new clothes too! I’ll buy them for you! Let’s go!” Xia He said stubbornly.
Qiao Mei laughed and asked, “If we dress nicer than the bride, then who’s the lead character that day? You or me? Are the three of us getting married together?”
“Tsk, she won’t care about these things! You still don’t know, but their family has been in a mess recently and they don’t have time to deal with the wedding at all. I’m so glad to know that!” Xia He said happily and almost wanted to jump up and clap.
Xia Jun had always said that the three brothers’ families should be united and not go against one another. However, the third son’s family members always created trouble for the eldest son’s family, so Xia He would not treat them kindly!
The day when the third son’s family members knew how to get along peacefully with them would be the day when Xia He would talk to them nicely.
In the beginning, when Shao Yin moved into the small house, she felt very happy. However, when everyone else moved in as well, she started to worry. This was not the life she wanted at all.
Given that both Qiao Mei and her were daughters-in-law of the Xia family, she did not understand why Qiao Mei could live in such a big house while her entire family had to squeeze into such a small house.
“You don’t know this yet! Grandfather had arranged for Third Uncle to be transferred back to the capital and he’s now in charge of training new recruits in the army,” Xia He said as she held Qiao Mei’s arm.
