714 Thinking Straight for a Change
“Then forget it. There’s no need to look for her anymore. It’s such a waste to use 50 dollars to look for that little b*tch! 50 dollars is enough to buy a lot of vegetables and meat. Even if we sell this little b*tch, she won’t even be worth 50 dollars. If she likes to go out so much, then she’d better not come back. Don’t come back for the rest of her life!” Qiao Zhuang said.
“No! Since Qiao Mei is the one who did this, we have to make her pay a price! We can’t let her off just like that!” Wang Qin said anxiously.
Now, as long as there was any issue related to Qiao Mei, she had to grasp it. As long as she could make Qiao Mei pay the price, she wanted to do it no matter how big or small it was.
However, Qiao Zhuang did not think so. Some time ago, Qiao Yu’s marriage had already caused an uproar in the village and Qiao Mei had even asked the armed forces department to find trouble with him. If he still went to look for Qiao Mei because of Qiao Yu, it would only put them in an even more passive position.!!
Everyone already felt that Qiao Mei was right in this matter. Now, if they said that Qiao Yu had gone missing and pushed the blame to Qiao Mei, the villagers would not buy it. They would all say that their family was abusing Qiao Yu and no one would believe them.
They would inevitably hold another open meeting to criticize him. He could not afford to be so embarrassed again!
It was rare that Qiao Zhuang was thinking straight enough to consider so many things.
“Who are you to care! This matter is over! If not, why don’t you give me 100 dollars! Your mother and I will go to the capital to look for her. Otherwise, you can shut up and stay at home obediently! Isn’t it enough for me to be scolded in the village because of what you did! Save me the trouble!” Qiao Zhuang said as he pointed at Wang Qin.
Wang Qin had no choice but to give up on the idea of confronting Qiao Mei. Previously, when she had no evidence, Qiao Zhuang had asked her to ask Qiao Mei for an explanation. Then, she was afraid that she could not win against Qiao Mei without any evidence and would embarrass herself.
Now that she had evidence, and could also prove that Qiao Yu was in the capital, Qiao Zhuang would not let her confront Qiao Mei.
Qiao Mei hung up the phone and stretched lazily. Back then, she thought that Xu Lan was a cold person and was not as nice as Qiao Qiang described. She did not see what he said about Xu Lan’s bark being worse than her bite.
Now that Xu Lan was so concerned about her, she realized that Xu Lan’s cold appearance was all an act. Putting herself in Xu Lan’s shoes, she would also be very shocked if her son found someone with an ill-matched family background in the future. Furthermore, it was a sudden marriage without his parents’ consent.
Qiao Mei was in a good mood and decided to go home and take out all the good fabric in the house to make a few dresses for Xu Lan. She would make clothes for all the four seasons of the year and send them to Xu Lan when the postman came.
At the same time, she would write a letter to Xu Lan to let her know about her life in the village.
When she was in the capital, she had even asked Xia Wen to get her an advanced film camera. However, although it was easy to find the machine, it was difficult to get the film. Film was a consumable product. Not only was it expensive, but there were also very few places to go to develop photos.
During this time, it was really difficult to record the lives of the people around. They could only go to the photo studio to take formal photos during the holidays.
The next time He Ning bought ginseng from her, she would ask him to find 300 rolls of film and exchange the remaining money for the denominations she wanted. This way, the Xia family would not have run around to help her with this matter.
Ever since she found He Ning’s weakness, he was like a tool to Qiao Mei. She would look for him whenever she encountered any difficult issues. He Ning could only blame himself for doing those things to harm her back then.
“Uncle Zhao, I’m done. Let me know how much it costs,” Qiao Mei said.
“It’s two dollars. Put it in my drawer. I’ll give it to Wang Qin later. I’ll send you home first. Otherwise, your grandfather will get anxious later,” Zhao Liang said.
“There’s no need. I’ll walk back. It’s not good to keep staying at home every day. It’s not conducive to my future delivery. I’ll walk home slowly,” Qiao Mei said.
Zhao Liang could not dissuade Qiao Mei and gave her a few reminders before letting her go back on her own.
Along the way, she observed the situation of every family with their melon seeds. Some families had already started to plant the seeds, while others were still watching. She estimated that all the villagers would plant the seeds within the next two days.
She was lying earlier when she said that the melon seeds could be harvested early. How could there be seeds that could be harvested so quickly? She had distributed these seeds to everyone before she even developed them.
Now, she could only cheat secretly and send some energy to each family’s seeds.
