Chapter 1606 Use Together

Qiao Mei looked towards the crowd and shouted, "Madam Lu, your son isn't dead yet! Why are you weeping like you're at a funeral? The people from the mediation department will be here in a while. You can tell them your story once they get here. Save your strength first, otherwise you won't be able to talk later."

"What? You contacted the mediation department!" Lu Lin said in shock.

lightsnοvεl "That's right. I heard from everyone that it's useless to ask the police to come here. In the end, they'll still ask the mediation department to handle this matter, so I gave them a call directly. I even informed my husband, as well as your husband, to go over together later. Don't worry, I'll definitely clear your name," Qiao Mei said seriously.

The crowd began to get restless. It had been a long time since they had seen someone from the mediation department.

This family compound appeared to be set up to reassure the military men and allow them to to live with their families. In fact, it was also a test for the men. Everything that happened within the compound was reported to the higher-ups and would also be taken into consideration when it was time for the men's promotion assessment.

If a person did not treat his family and neighbors well, he definitely could not be a good officer.

Most of the issues in the courtyard happened due to the women bickering with one another. They did nothing more than jibe at one another as none of them really wanted to have a bad reputation. Otherwise, their husbands would be mocked within the army.

However, now that Qiao Mei had highlighted the issue so blatantly, Lu Lin's days were probably going to become worse in the future.

"Lu Lin is already beaten up by her husband every day. In the future, he will definitely hit her even more!"

"Look at the look in her son's eyes. He looks like he wants to skin the other woman alive! If such a young child doesn't learn the right things, his future is doomed!"

"Lu Lin deserves it! Have you all forgotten how she bullies us all the time?"

"What's the background of Qiao Mei's husband?"

Everyone voiced their own opinions and brought up everything regarding Lu Lin's past. Seeing that the situation was no longer advantageous for her, Lu Lin hugged her son and wanted to leave. Qian'e immediately stopped Lu Lin and said, "You want to leave? It's too late for that! Wait for the people from the department to come and mediate!"n-(OVelbIn

"I need to send my son to the hospital! If you cause any delay in my son's treatment, are you going to take care of him for the rest of his life?" Lu Lin threatened.

Lu Lin's son had leaves and grass all over his body. Using these leaves, Qiao Mei could see that there were only some abrasions on the surface of his body. The butterfly mark on Qiao Mei's chest burned slightly. She wanted to try and see if she could use plants as a medium to touch another person and use both her powers at the same time.

Qiao Mei could see all the bones inside Lu Lin's son. The imagery was not very clear, but it was enough for her to see that there was nothing wrong with his bones and no abnormalities inside his body. Only then did Qiao Mei feel at ease.

"It's just a fall. Even a little girl isn't so precious and pampered. What's it to a boy?" Qian'e whispered disdainfully.

Soon, a military vehicle stopped in front of them. A team of people alighted from it and everyone made way for them. The person leading the team was Zhao Wu.

"Sister-in-law? Why are you here?" Zhao Wu asked curiously.

"Aren't you in charge of the army vehicles? Why are you working in the mediation department now?" Qiao Mei asked.

"It's a long story. I'll tell you about it in the future. Please move aside first. I have a job to do," Zhao Wu said seriously.

Qiao Mei said embarrassedly, "I'm one of the people you need to round up as part of the job."

Zhao Wu was stunned to the spot. No wonder Xia Zhe gave him a look before he left. So that was what Xia Zhe meant...

"Um... all of you come with me! Get into the vehicle! We'll talk there!" Zhao Wu said evasively.

He knew better than to bring in personal feelings when he was doing his job. If he knew that Qiao Mei was involved in this issue, he would not come even if threatened with death! He decided to let Qiao Mei sit in the front passenger seat. It was safer and not so bumpy when they traveled on the mountain roads. He wanted Qiao Mei to feel more comfortable.

Along the way, Qiao Mei did not talk to Zhao Wu. She would not deliberately make things difficult for him. After all, this was official business.

When they reached the army camp, Qiao Mei saw both Xia Zhe and Mao Wei waiting at the door. However, their expressions were completely different. One of them looked happy while the other looked aggrieved.

When Lu Lin saw Mao Wei, she immediately felt a sense of guilt. She hugged her son and walked shakily over to Mao Hang, not daring to make a sound. Mao Wei said fiercely in a low voice, "I'll teach you a lesson when we get back!"
