After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

Chapter 2294: Gao Tao's Photo



Qiao Qiang had thought that it would be difficult for him to meet Gao Long in this lifetime. He did not expect that his wish would come true today! It was really too exciting!

"Grandfather! Why did you come in through the front yard!" Qiao Mei said as she looked at the people in the courtyard.

"Mei Mei, quickly prepare some food and drinks! I want to have a good drink with Gao Long today!" Qiao Qiang said happily.

Qiao Mei had already expected this outcome. The dishes she prepared tonight were all the food which Qiao Qiang and Gao Long liked. She also prepared some medicinal wine. Both men were not in good health, so it was better to be more careful.

That night, they chatted for a long time. Gao Long took out a thin booklet and handed it to Qiao Qiang, saying, "Uncle-in-law, I don't know if this will be useful to you. This is my aunt's photo album from when she was young."

The Gao family was very rich back then. Old Madam Gao did not have a good memory, so after Gao Tao turned 14 years old, she asked someone from the photo studio to come to her house every month to take photos of Gao Tao. Before Gao Tao turned 14 years old, she would get a painter to come to her house to do paintings of the girl.

It was a pity that they did not bring the paintings with them when they left Hu City as they were too big. Those paintings were probably lost or destroyed long ago.

The two men chatted throughout the entire night and Qiao Qiang only fell asleep at dawn. Gao Long did not feel sleepy. He stood in the courtyard and stared blankly at the peach tree in the backyard. In the past, his aunt had also liked peach trees very much.

He still remembered that when he was young, he always wanted to climb up the tree to pluck peaches. One time, he suddenly slipped and fell down. It was Gao Tao who caught him and prevented him from being injured. However, Gao Tao's arm was slightly fractured in the process and he had always felt very guilty about this.

Qiao Mei leaned against the pillar in the long corridor and yawned, saying, "Aren't you going to sleep for a while?"

"You're up very early." Gao Long did not answer Qiao Mei's question directly.

"Today is a big day, so of course I have to get up early. There are still a lot of things and ingredients to prepare. I also have to go and pave the way for you in advance," Qiao Mei said melancholically.

After thinking for a long time, Gao Long said, "What kind of person is Xia Wan's mother? She has never mentioned this to me before."

"She's just a straightforward person. She doesn't have any bad intentions and she's very nice to people. It's just that her EQ isn't high. If she says anything offensive today, don't take it to heart. Second Aunt-in-law won't have done it on purpose," Qiao Mei explained.

"Do... Do you approve of me being with Xia Wan?" Gao Long asked.

"Isn't it a little late for you to ask me this question now?" Qiao Mei said as she raised her eyebrows.

Gao Long chuckled and said, "It's indeed a little late."

"I guess it's alright for me. I think you're very suitable for Cousin Xia Wan and the two of you complement each other. I can tell that Cousin Xia Wan likes you very much. As long as she likes you, it's good enough for me," Qiao Mei said.

"Shouldn't you be on my side? Why are you on her side?" Gao Long asked jokingly.

"Although we're relatives, I've spent more time with Xia Wan than you. Xia Wan is more like an elder sister to me. It's only because we're relatives that I didn't make things difficult for you. You should be content with that!" Qiao Mei said disdainfully.

"Sigh... You're nothing like my aunt in this aspect. You resemble Uncle-in-law more," Gao Long said.

"Do you still have many memories of my grandmother?" Qiao Mei asked curiously.

"Everything is already very blurry. I can't even remember her face clearly. I can only remember a rough outline and her voice," Gao Long said regretfully.

Qiao Mei had been thinking about something recently. Since she already had X-ray vision and the ability to read the memories of plants, could she fuse these together and be able to extract a person's memories?

She still did not know what the abilities of the necklace and earrings were. Although she had used the necklace's ability by chance the last time, she did not know why it would not listen to her commands now. It seemed that these things were really difficult to handle.

Right now, she was still missing a pair of bangles which used to belong to Gao Tao. One of them was with Dr. Julie from Country M. Could it be that the other one also had healing capabilities?n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

It looked like there were still many mysteries waiting to be solved and there was still a long way to go in the future!

Qiao Mei bade a brief farewell to Gao Long. After packing her things, she went to Xia Wen's house. Mo Zhu was already waiting in the living room.

"Sister-in-law! Do you miss me~" Qiao Mei said sweetly.

"Yes - Of course I miss you. Xia Sun and I were not in good health lately and we hadn't gone out. I haven't had the chance to thank you for the clothes you gave Xia Sun!" Mo Zhu said. "As long as Sister-in-law doesn't mind~" Qiao Mei hugged Mo Zhu and said happily. Xia Wen stood at the side and looked at Qiao Mei with a dark expression, saying unhappily, "Hey, it's time to let go. How long are you going to hug her?"

"Huh? Is Eldest Brother feeling jealous? No way... I haven't seen Sister-in-law for so long. Can't I hug her?" Qiao Mei said pitifully.
