Both Officer Qiao and Madame Qiao became annoyed as well.
“Yeah.” Shao Yunduan was confused. He sounded quite normal, and reacted to them in a confused manner which surprised them.
“We picked many watermelons to take home, and happened to run into Young
Master Yuezheng and Young Master Xie. Young Master Yuezheng was very
interested in the watermelons so he bought them all right away. He gave us some extra money as well. They asked where we found them… that was how we befriended each other.’
“Later, Young Master Yuezheng decided to open tea fields at the Zhang Village, saying that the mountains are very good and the soil is rich, so he bought many fields at the Zhang Village, when someone was selling the paddy fields. He bought them all and hired us to take care of them because he was too far away to take care of them.”
Officer Qiao’s face stiffened. “Why you?”
Shao Yunduan looked very calm and thought for a while in a leisurely manner. “l asked Young Master Yuezheng the reason as well. I am not experienced, right? I may ruin things. But Young Master Yuezheng said that I was the best candidate for the job, so I accepted it. Also, I can earn 2 liang a month, which is a great deal, thus I signed the contract…”
Qiao Xuan had her head lowered and was almost ready to burst out with laughter.
Her husband sounded really excited and proud as he mentioned the income of 2 liang. It all sounded so real.
They had more than 120,000 liang in cash currently and their properties would be worth more than 20,000 liang. They were constantly generating money from lipsticks, and soon they would start getting profits from tea bricks and bean products as well as the dessert stores that would be launched soon.
Her husband did not look like a liar when he spoke with so much conviction and vigor. It was so funny.
She would have absolutely trusted his words if she had not known the truth.
She simply decided to hide herself next to this big-actor husband of hers…
Officer Qiao and his family bought his story, and they all looked very disdainful.
Madame Qiao and Qiao Wei were also thinking that this man was so shallow-minded to be this happy at being paid 2 liang a month!
Officer Qiao was also very disappointed and angry, feeling that he had missed the best time to establish a relationship with the Yuezheng Family. How stupid was that!
Maybe this man did not even know what the Yuezheng Family was like in the province!
“You are telling the truth?”
“Of course! I am not bold enough to lie to you, Officer father-in-law!”
“I don’t think you do! If I find otherwise, I will punish you!” Officer Qiao sounded fierce and snapped at Shao Yunduan. “Why didn’t you tell us about this important thing? I am your father-in-law, Officer Qiao!’
That was the most annoying part.
Shao Yunduan showed a very strange expression. He was startled and said, “l didn’t think that this was an important thing, Officer Father-in-law. You are busy with so many issues, and I didn’t realize that you would be interested in a matter that brings in 2 liang a month. I would have told you, had I known about this…
“What 2 liang!’! Officer Qiao snapped. “l don’t care about the 2 liang, I am talking about…”
Officer Qiao was so angry that he could not say anything further..
