“That’s right.
Now that my first son is married, I’m not so worried anymore.
My second son is still waiting to get married!” the old man said with a smile.
“Old mister, how’s my grandfather recently?” Qiao Mei asked.
At this moment, the old man did not say much and Qiao Mei had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
Could it be that something had happened to her grandfather?
“Old mister, tell me quickly!” Qiao Mei said anxiously.
“Sigh… just the same things that happened in the past.
When you were not at home, Qiao Zhuang’s family went to your house to take things.
As your grandfather was alone at home, he could not fight them off, so he just let them take whatever they wanted.
Sometimes, the situation is better if your mother is at home.
Your younger siblings are all really young and can’t stop Qiao Zhuang and the rest,” the old man said angrily.
One time, he happened to pass by Qiao Mei’s house and saw Qiao Zhuang’s eldest daughter-in-law, Liu Ying, and third daughter-in-law, Jiang Ye, throwing a tantrum at the door, insisting that they wanted to take a pig from Qiao Mei’s house.
At that time, both Qiao Qiang and Li Gui were at home, so they did not manage to succeed and only managed to scold everyone.
Otherwise, if they had succeeded, they would have taken all the poultry to their house.
“Qiao Mei, you’re pregnant so don’t go and look for them.
Don’t suffer any losses.
Your husband is also here, so I’ll say a bit more.
Let’s not fight head-on with scoundrels.
After all, your status is special.
They’re all commoners.
It would not be good if things get out of hand,” the old man advised them earnestly.
Xia Zhe definitely could not come forward to handle such a matter.
If Qiao Zhuang and the rest acted shamelessly and insisted that Xia Zhe had injured their arms or legs, it would become a matter of a soldier bullying commoners.
This would be seen as a serious matter.
If word got out, Xia Zhe could forget about his career progression in the army.
“Old mister is right.
I’ll definitely consider it carefully.
Thank you, old mister,” Qiao Mei said.
Xia Zhe still wanted to say something in rebuttal when Qiao Mei stopped him and whispered, “Let’s talk at home.”
In no time at all, they arrived at the entrance of the village.
Qiao Mei patted the old man’s shoulder and said, “Old mister, you can let me off here.
We’ve reached your convenience store.
My house is just a few steps away.”
“That won’t do! It doesn’t matter since it’s just a few steps.
You have so many things, I’ll help send them to your house.
Don’t stand on ceremony with me!” The old man smiled and waved his hand.
The people here were all very simple and honest.
They still remembered how well Qiao Mei treated them, so they would do their best to help her whenever she needed help.
“Thank you then, old mister!” Qiao Mei smiled sweetly.
