After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! Chapter 2441: Talk Things Out
Chapter 2441: Talk Things Out
“Elder? Don’t think that you can use your age as a weapon just because you’re old. It’s not your place to talk about our family’s business. I’m just reminding you not to read too much into things but you can’t even keep a lid on your emotions. It looks to that you’ve set your sights on our Xia family for a long ti,” Qiao i said with a smile.
When the people standing around overheard the conversation, they could not help but giggle. Ge Ping kept saying that Qiao i was an uncouth girl from the countryside, but the person currently yelling in public was Ge Ping. Qiao i was seated elegantly on the sofa the entire ti, making it even more apparent that Ge Ping was acting rudely.
“How can soone like you manage the Xia family’s household? Are all the Xia family mbers blind! If this is how the Xia family mbers are brought up, then it looks like our Ge Hong shouldn’t join the Xia family and be bullied!” Ge Ping said angrily.
“Oh, this is how I am. If you can’t stand it, then you should go away. There’s no need for you to look at .” Qiao i could not be bothered to explain too much. Was there still anyone in the capital who did not know what kind of person she was and what the Xia family was like? Among the prominent families present here today, at least two-thirds had previously requested and received dicinal wine from Qiao i. Very few people would be willing to speak up for the Ge family at the mont.
Ge Ping did not even move an inch after a long ti, so Qiao i stared at her and asked, “What? Do you still have sothing to say? Since you still want to talk, then tell about how Xia Yuan abandoned your Ge Hong after playing with her feelings. I want to hear the entire story.”
“Our Ge Hong has already given herself to Xia Yuan! What do you expect Ge Hong to do!” Ge Ping said.
“Oh? Given herself? This is not sothing you can say lightly. Do you even know what that ans?” Qiao i questioned.
Ge Ping spent very little ti in school and did not really know how to read and write. She was lucky that she could depend on her good looks. When Qiao i asked her this question, she really did not know how to answer it.
“I know what you’re trying to say though. Back then, Xia Yuan had saved Ge Hong. At that ti, it was a matter of life and death. In order to save her, our Xia Yuan had to hug Ge Hong in public and carry her to the infirmary. He had no other choice. After that, did Xia Yuan stay in contact with Ge Hong? Did the two of them go out on dates?” Qiao i asked.
The fact was… they had never gone on dates. Ge Hong only quietly observed Xia Yuan from the side and never really interacted with him. The two of them seldom talked and it was very likely that Xia Yuan did not even rember who Ge Hong was.
“Looks like the answer is no. Looks like it is better for us not to help soone who is of the opposite sex? Otherwise, we might get accused of ulterior motives. It’s so difficult to be a good person! Xia Yuan is really pitiful!” Qiao i exclaid loudly.
The people standing around looked at Ge Ping without saying anything but their eyes were filled with condemnation for her. If society was filled with people like Ge Ping who could not tell right from wrong, then good people would not be able to do good deeds anymore!
“Nonsense!” Ge Ping held back her tongue, not knowing how to refute Qiao i.
By right, a young girl who was asked to manage a household at such a young age should be easily overwheld. Ge Ping expected Qiao i to throw the problem to Xia Yuan’s parents when it ca to this issue. She did not expect Qiao i to be so extraordinary and to be even more unreasonable than her!
“A couple should only get married if they want to. There’s no reason for us to force the issue. Xia Yuan doesn’t know Ge Hong and the two of them also don’t interact with each other. If our family is unwilling to accept your proposal, you should not try to force it through. Otherwise, if everyone acts like you, there’ll always be a crowd gathered at the Xia family’s door!” Qiao i said with a smile.
“How can you say that there’s no feelings between the two of them! Both of them like each other…” Before Ge Ping could finish speaking, Qiao i interrupted her.
“Firstly! Xia Yuan doesn’t know who Ge Hong is. He had only saved her because he couldn’t leave her in the lurch during an ergency. Secondly! Although the Xia and Ge families are long-ti friends, Xia Yuan still has the final say in his own marriage. Xia Yuan doesn’t like Ge Hong, so we can’t accept the Ge family’s proposal! Thirdly! If you continue to spout nonsense about this matter, I’ll sue you for slander! For reputation damage! Besides, if you continue to say such things, it won’t be good for Ge Hong’s reputation either. How will Ge Hong face people in the capital in the future?” Qiao i said.
“You! You!” Ge Ping was so angry that she almost fainted. The helper nearby hurriedly held her up.
“In the future, be careful about the things you say. Don’t use inappropriate words and phrases. Read more books!” Qiao i said.
Qiao i originally thought that only the Ge family’s second branch family doted on Ge Hong. She did not expect that as Ge Hong’s aunt, Ge Ping, also doted on her very much. If that was the case, then Qiao i would be able to control the Ge family easily if Ge Hong should join the Xia family. At least the Ge family would not hurt Ge Hong for the sake of benefits. This was already much better than how the Tan family treated Tan Jing.
“How can you be so vicious!” Ge Ping said angrily.
“It’s good that you know. I haven’t even done anything to you yet! You’d better not let find your Ge family trying to play dirty tricks on the Xia family behind our backs. Otherwise, I’ll let your family know what it ans to have your reputation ruined. You must make sure the Ge family’s 100-year-old history must not be destroyed in the hands of your generation!” Qiao i said.
