Zhang Qian turned around and looked at Zhang Cong, expecting him to chime in. However, he did not expect Zhang Cong to be like a quail, hiding in a corner and trembling, not even daring to look up. He behaved as if Qiao Mei would fry him in the pan and eat him up in the next second.
“This wall is not soundproof. I believe you all heard what I said to the Li family members just now. If you can’t fork out 6,000 dollars, then transfer the two houses that you and your son own in the county city to my mother to pay off the debt. Otherwise, I’ll send the two of you to the police station. We’ll pursue the issues of child abduction and domestic violence that you did in the past as well!” Qiao Mei said.
“That house doesn’t belong to me. It belongs to my parents. It’s not up to me,” Zhang Qian said.
“What has this got to do with me? Think of a solution yourself. I only want the house,” Qiao Mei said.
Zhang Cong mustered his courage and said, “Um I can agree, but you have to send us back first! Only then can we transfer the house to you.”
Now that they were in the capital and had no relatives here, it was very difficult for them to find anyone to save them. However, things were different once they returned to the county city!
His wife, Sun Yan, was a shrew! Moreover, Sun Yan’s in-laws were quite influential in the county city. They would definitely protect him!
Qiao Mei knew exactly what Zhang Cong was thinking. Sun Yan was nobody to her. In her eyes, these people were as small as ants and could not cause any trouble for her.
“There’s no need to go through so much trouble. Just sign the agreement I’ve prepared and the houses will be transferred to my mother. Once everything is done, you can return to the county city in peace,” Qiao Mei said.
Zhang Cong tugged at the corner of Zhang Qian’s shirt and said, “Dad, I can’t do without the house! Sun Yan is the one who paid for that house. If Sun Yan finds out about this, her family will beat me to death!”
“You useless thing! How did I give birth to a son like you!” Zhang Qian said angrily.
In the end, both the Zhang and Li families ended up signing the property transfer agreements which Qiao Mei had brought with her. She then sent them to a guest house near the train station to stay for a few days and only let them leave after all the documentation was finalized.
Qiao Mei’s men also boarded the train to escort all of them back to the small county city. This was to ensure that they did not get off somewhere else and make a detour back to the capital to create trouble again.
After Li Gui ate the small condensed ginseng pills that Qiao Mei brought, she felt much better. After she was discharged and reached home, Qiao Mei brought the four agreements to her bedside.
“Mom, this is what Zhang Qian and Grandmother left for you,” Qiao Mei said awkwardly.
At the end of the day, Li Gui still acknowledged Old Madam Li as her mother. In that case, there was nothing wrong with Qiao Mei addressing the old woman as “Grandmother”.
Li Gui went through the four agreements earnestly, then she looked at Qiao Mei in surprise and said, “They gave me the houses willingly?”
“I won’t say that they do it willingly. They were forced into a corner,” Qiao Mei said objectively after thinking for a moment.
Li Gui knew that Qiao Mei must have helped her take revenge. She must have been very blessed in her past life to be able to get such a daughter in this life.
She looked at Qiao Mei’s expression and could not help but laugh out loud. She held Qiao Mei’s hand gently and said, “I’ll support you no matter what you do. It’s my fault for not being vigilant enough this time. I’ve learned my lesson and won’t let them bully me again!”
“Now that their lifeline is in our hands, they probably won’t cause any trouble for a while,” Qiao Mei said.
After settling Li Gui down, Qiao Mei wanted to return to the study to study the luminous pearl and its function. Unexpectedly, Xia He rushed in from outside and said while she panted, “Qiao Mei, there’s some bad news. Cousin Xia Wan had been beaten up by that mistress!”
Qiao Mei sighed. Was everyone feeling too fiery inside recently? It seemed that there were fights everywhere.
“Stay inside my house and don’t go out. In the future, get your helper to come and tell me about such things. Your pregnancy isn’t even stabilized yet! You need to rest well!” Qiao Mei said with a frown.
“I’m just feeling too anxious about this! Go now!” Xia He said agitatedly.
“Alright.” Qiao Mei quickly made a call to Qian’e and asked her to go to Xia Fang’s hospital immediately so that they could deal with this matter together.
Qiao Mei took out a stack of money from the drawer and put it in her bag. After that, she drove to the hospital immediately. When she arrived, Qian’e was already waiting for her at the door.
