After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!-Chapter 983 - What Exactly Do You Want

983 What Exactly Do You Want
Tan Jing’s nephew was the son of her second brother, Tan Hu and his name was Tan Xue. The family gave him this name as Xue meant “to learn” and they wanted the child to be able to study well. None of the children in their family managed to get into a good school, so that was why Tan Hu gave the child such a name.

Although Tan Jing worked in the university, she was just a counselor who managed the students’ dormitory and their daily issues in the university. She did not know anything about academic issues and only got this job by chance. The work was tiring and the salary was low, so no one was willing to take up the job.

In the past, Tan Hu had specially gone to look for Xia Wen to help Tan Xue out, and said things like “We can’t let the child lose at the starting line”. He wanted Xia Wen to help Tan Xue enter a good school.

Xia Wen was unable to reject Tan Hu. If his family did not render any help, Tan Hu would go home and complain to Tan Bo and then Tan Jing would be the one to suffer. No matter how Xia Wen did not feel like helping, he still had to do it. Xia Wen spent a lot of time and had to make use of his connections before he was finally able to get Tan Xue into the best elementary school in the capital. However, the outcome had turned out to be unsatisfactory.

As Tan Hu’s family used to live in the countryside, the child had not gone to kindergarten and was illiterate. Initially, Xia Wen had suggested that the child should start from kindergarten in the capital and that it did not matter that the child would be older than his classmates. However, Tan Hu did not take the advice at all. Instead, he felt that Xia Wen had said all that because he did not want to help them. In the end, Xia Wen had no choice but to give Tan Hu what he wanted. When Tan Xue started elementary school, he could not understand any of his lessons at all and his results were always at the bottom.

Tan Hu felt that it was all Xia Wen’s fault and asked Xia Wen to find a tutor and an extracurricular class teacher for the child. Moreover, he wanted Xia Wen to pay for it. Those who did not know better would think that this was Xia Wen and Tan Jing’s son, instead of their nephew!

“It would be better for him to study in the countryside. Otherwise, he would always be ranked last here,” Xia Wen said.

Even though Xia Wen was telling the truth, it sounded to Tan Jing like Xia Wen was mocking her and her family. This made the situation even more unacceptable for Tan Jing.

“How can you treat my family like this! My nephew is just not smart and can’t keep up with the other children. Is it his fault? How can you say that about him!” Tan Jing looked at Xia Wen furiously.

“Will you cut it out already? Are you blaming me for this? Tan Jing, what else do you want from me! When your family says that they don’t have any money, my family will think of a way to give it to them. When your family says that they don’t have a house to live in, we try to think of a way to help them rent a house. Yet, they’re still not satisfied. Now that we want to let them live in our previous homes, it’s still not a satisfactory solution. What exactly do you want!” Xia Wen questioned her angrily.

This was the first time Tan Jing had seen Xia Wen behaving like this. There was no longer any trace of love in his eyes at all, only impatience. After being married for so many years, Xia Wen had never spoken harshly to her. This was the first time ever.

Tan Jing stood rooted to the ground and stammered for a long time without saying anything. She could not figure out what she wanted either. It was as if she could not control anything she did.

Did she want Xia Wen’s love? However, Xia Wen already loved her enough, to the extent that all the neighbors envied her for having such a good husband.

Did she want Xia Wen to take good care of her and be attentive of all her needs? However, Xia Wen had already been doing this for so many years. He did not need her to do any of the dirty chores at home and he basically handled everything.

Did she want Xia Wen to be biased towards her maternal family? However, ever since they got married, no matter how overboard the Tan family was or how unreasonable their requests were, Xia Wen would try his best to satisfy them. Xia Wen had always taken the Tan family’s requests to help with their work, living arrangements, school for the kids and money in his stride.

After her marriage, she never had to face the issue of domestic violence and she did not have to do the housework. Xia Wen was also a motivated person and he cared for his family well. He loved his wife very much and was the perfect husband in the eyes of other women. However, why was she still not satisfied?

It was because Tan Jing felt that she was a burden to Xia Wen. She always had this feeling when she faced Qiao Mei. It was only after Qiao Mei’s appearance that her relationship with Xia Wen gradually deteriorated.
“I… I don’t know…” Tan Jing said in a panic.

This time, Xia Wen did not intend to give in to Tan Jing anymore. If he continued to give in blindly, it would only make the Tan family even more demanding and become even more impudent. It was better to draw the line as ruthlessly and as soon as possible.
