Chapter 1741 Something Major Happened
"Song Zhi's family is in a difficult situation. Coupled with the kind of husband she has, her life is really not easy. In the past, I used to ostracize her, but I don't say anything now. It's truly not easy for everyone nowadays," Liu Yun said.
"I know. I won't get angry with her. Sister-in-law, are you looking for me?" Qiao Mei asked.
Liu Yun took out a stack of money from her pocket, rolled it up and stuffed it into Qiao Mei's hand, hoping that Qiao Mei would accept it. Even without looking, Qiao Mei could tell what it was just by the feel of it. This material is derived from n0velbin¶
"Sister-in-law! This is not a nice thing to do! And it's also against the rules!" Qiao Mei said seriously.
After coming to this place, Qiao Mei realized that the neighbors here did not trade with one another. It was completely different from when she was in Foshan Village. The villagers of Foshan Village would buy things from or exchange items with one another. However, in the military family compound, they only gave one another gifts without involving money.
"I'm fine. Bring the children inside and go upstairs. Other than me, no one else is allowed to go into their room," Qiao Mei said sternly.
"Alright, I understand." Wan Wen ran back into the house with the two children and headed upstairs without even greeting her properly.
Qiao Mei walked into the house slowly. As soon as she entered, she saw Xu Ju and Xu Jiao kicking up a fuss in the living room as if they had gone crazy. She could not be bothered to greet them and quietly changed her shoes at the door.
Xu Lan looked at Qiao Mei in surprise and said, "Why are you back today?"
"Why can't she come back today! What do you mean by that! Your family just doesn't welcome me! Qiao Mei, it's good that you're back! Ask Xia Wen to come back quickly! We have to get an explanation today! Otherwise, we won't leave!" Xu Ju said angrily.
Qiao Mei sat on the sofa and did not make a sound. She did not want to say anything to agitate Xu Ju into doing something even crazier. Almost everything in the house had been smashed up. Fortunately, Sister Wan Wen did not bring out the bone china tea set today. Otherwise, Xu Lan would definitely feel sad.
"Why are you sitting down? Your elders didn't say you can sit! What right do you have to sit! Stand up! You didn't answer when I spoke to you just now!" Xu Ju said as she pointed at Qiao Mei.
Since Qiao Mei could not avoid the problem, she looked at Xu Ju and said, "Eldest Aunt, let's sit down and take a rest. It's not time for my eldest brother to get off work yet. Won't he be back once he knocks off? It's useless for you to be anxious. You might as well sit down and have some tea and rest."
