Qiao Mei did not dare to make any sound as she followed closely behind Xia Wen. He sat on a chair at the side of the living room and looked at her. By right, given this was her house, she should take the master seat opposite the main door. However, in the current situation, she did not have the guts to sit there at all.
“Alright, just sit down. I’m not an evil ghoul. Why are you so afraid?” Xia Wen said in a slightly milder tone.
“You’re probably more terrifying than an evil ghoul ” Qiao Mei muttered to herself.
“What did you say?” Xia Wen asked.
“Nothing! I didn’t say anything!” Qiao Mei said quickly.
Qiao Mei sat down on the master seat in fear and trepidation, waiting for Xia Wen to speak. He looked at her hands and asked, “How did you get all these things out yourself?”
“I found a few experts! They have the same skills as our ex-third aunt-in-law. Their ancestors were tomb raiders! That’s why they are able to find all the things that the Du family hid in the old house. I just went to pick up the items. I’m not the one who dug those things up!” Qiao Mei said with a guilty conscience.
Xia Wen was aware that Qiao Mei knew many “experts”. Even if Qiao Mei did not know them herself, Yao Nian would also be able to help Qiao Mei gather these people. He knew how capable Yao Nian was. Moreover, based on the amount of time she took, she could not have done it on her own.
“Next time, you have to inform us in advance about such things. What if someone spots you? What if those people you found are exposed? If you go to such a dangerous place alone and something happens to you, how am I going to explain it to Xia Zhe!” Xia Wen nagged for a long time and Qiao Mei lowered her head, not daring to retort.
She could not help but lament to herself that this was probably the last time she could go and dig up someone else’s treasures. If she did it again, Xia Wen would definitely skin her alive! If he did not give her a lecture, then he would completely give up on her and leave her to her own devices.
Qiao Mei was only interested in digging up the treasures of her enemies, but the problem was that she had too many rich enemies
Seeing that it was already very late, Xia Wen did not want to keep nagging anymore. After saying everything that he wanted to say, he got up to leave. Qiao Mei immediately said, “Goodbye, Eldest Brother.”
“Are you chasing me out?” Xia Wen said jokingly.
“No, no! I’m just worried that Eldest Brother won’t get enough sleep and will be late for work tomorrow,” Qiao Mei said.
“You cheeky girl! Let’s go and unload the things from the car! I’ll get Da Zhuang to wash the car tomorrow. We have to make sure that no one is aware of what’s going on!” Xia Wen said.
Qiao Mei and Xia Wen took half an hour to move everything in the truck into the storeroom. Xia Wen panted as he looked at the things strewed all over the ground and said, “Did you move all these things into the car yourself?”
“No, no, no. I hired many many experts! They are the ones who carry all these things for me! I’m just in charge of driving there and then driving back!” Qiao Mei said.
“Fine. I’ll settle the score with you another day! Put these things away and don’t let them see the light of day for the time being. Wait until after the situation has calmed down,” Xia Wen said cautiously.
“I know,” Qiao Mei said.
The next day during the day, Qiao Mei stayed inside the warehouse for an entire day! She wanted to make a list of all the items she had in the house. There were too many things now and they needed to be sorted out and stored carefully. If she was not careful, these items might get damaged and the value would drop greatly!
If there was really no other way, she would renovate one of her siheyuan courtyard houses and make it into a store for these treasures. She could then hire a few bodyguards to guard the various rooms. It was something she could well afford to do.
Now that all the family members lived near to one another, they found it troublesome for each family to cook their meals separately. Moreover, the men often went out to socialize or had to work overtime, so they did not come home for meals often. The women could not be bothered to cook at their own homes and decided to gather together to have their meals together.
Qiao Mei bought an even bigger table with a turntable on it! This would make it easy for everyone to help themselves from all the dishes. The only thing was that Xu Kang and Feng Hua had to work hard to cook every day, so Qiao Mei gave each of them an extra 50 dollars per month.
At night, Liu Fen came to Qiao Mei’s house angrily and said with annoyance, “Sister-in-law! Qiao Mei! I’m really going to die from anger because of that little ingrate at home!”
“Second Aunt-in-law, what happened? Why are you so angry?” Qiao Mei asked.
“You don’t say! Didn’t my family’s Xia Yuan just get rid of that vixen and decide to marry that girl from the Zhou family? In the end, just as he’s about to get engaged, Xia You is in trouble now!” Liu Fen said agitatedly.
“Xia You? Although Xia You is quite mischievous, she’s not the kind of person to do anything out of line. What can she have done?” Xu Lan asked.
“What can she do? There are so many things she can do! At this point, I’m not even shy to tell you! She’s actually actually having an affair!” Liu Fen said softly.
