Chapter 579 Going To Take A Look

"The money! Where's our money!" Wang Qin asked in a panic.

These words exploded in Qiao Zhuang's house like thunder had struck. Wang Qin was in charge of a portion of the family's living expenses. Shen Ge only knew how to work hard but did not know how to manage the household.

Qiao Zhuang could not be bothered to deal with most things in the family, so he handed everything over to Wang Qin. Anyway, his children would give him money regularly every month, so he did not care about anything else.

Wang Qin was also the accountant of the brigade. Since she could manage the accounts of the entire village, what was so hard about running a household? It was simply a waste of talent!

"What money! What are you talking about!" Qiao Zhuang immediately panicked.

"It's her! It must be her! She must have stolen it!" Wang Qin said as she pointed at Liu Ying.

Liu Ying laughed and said, "I took the money for my Xiao Hua."

Qiao Zhuang pulled Liu Ying and pushed her into the courtyard. The house was filled with the betrothal gifts that had just been sent over, as well as the new furniture that they bought for the wedding.

These things were all worth a lot of money. It was not worth it to damage anything in the house because of Liu Ying.

Liu Ying crouched over the ground in a sorry state and laughed loudly. She had never felt so good in her life. It would be even better if she could just die today. Anyway, she had no parents and Qiao Hua was already married. She had no burdens now.

When Zhao Liang heard the news, he quickly rushed over. As he passed by Qiao Qiang's house, he rushed into the courtyard and shouted, "Uncle Qiao! It's not good! Something big has happened!"

"What's wrong? Xiao Zhao, don't be anxious! Tell me slowly!" Qiao Qiang said.

"Someone's going to get killed at Qiao Zhuang's house. They're having a big fight over the matter of Qiao Yu's marriage. If this continues, Liu Ying will be beaten to death! After all, this is their family matter and I can't get involved. Aren't you Qiao Zhuang's eldest brother? Can you see if you can come forward and talk about this matter?" Zhao Liang said anxiously.

Qiao Qiang found himself in a difficult position. He had just said that he wanted to sever ties with Qiao Zhuang. If he went over now and meddled in their family matters, it would be like a slap to his own face.

"Uncle Qiao! I know you're in a difficult position, but it's a human life! You also know Liu Ying. She married into Qiao Zhuang's family when she was young. Her parents are no longer around and she is all alone. If she dies, it will be difficult for me as the brigade leader. Uncle Qiao, can't you just take it as helping me?" Zhao Liang begged.

Zhao Liang had helped their family a lot. When Zhang Wei got into an accident, it was he and his wife who took care of Zhang Wei. Qiao Qiang would not forget such a favor.

"Alright, I'll go with you," Qiao Qiang said resignedly.

"I'll go too!" Qiao Mei said as she rushed out of the backyard. Xia Zhe followed behind her.

"What are you two kids messing about! Qiao Zhuang's family is almost beating someone to death! You're pregnant, what if an accident happens! It's not like you don't know that their family hates you!" Zhao Liang said.

"Mei Mei, be good and stay at home. I'll be back soon. You don't have to worry about me," Qiao Qiang said.

Qiao Mei said firmly, "I have to go. I can't let grandfather go alone. Uncle Zhao, don't worry. Bring grandfather over first. I'll follow behind right away."

Zhao Liang and Qiao Qiang could not dissuade Qiao Mei, so they could only agree to her request. Xia Zhe stood at the side and did not say a word. He knew that as long as Qiao Mei set her mind on something, she would do it even if the sky collapsed.

"Why haven't you stopped me? None of them wants me to go," Qiao Mei asked curiously.

Xia Zhe sighed and reached out to gently touch the tip of Qiao Mei's nose. He said dotingly, "As long as it's something you want, I'll try my best to help you achieve it. With me around, no one will be able to hurt you. It's fine if you want to go and take a look. Why should I stop you?"

Qiao Mei smiled sweetly. She knew that Xia Zhe doted on her! He would also protect her well!

This time round, it was something she must do. Although Liu Ying often came to the house with Wang Qin to do evil, Qiao Hua took good care of her and would secretly send her nice food when no one was paying attention.

Other than the two of them, no one else knew about this.

Therefore, on the surface, everyone thought that Qiao Yu had a good relationship with Qiao Mei, but no one knew about Qiao Hua.

"Qiao Hua treats me very well. Liu Ying is not nice to me, but she's Qiao Hua's mother after all. No matter what, I have to go and take a look," Qiao Mei explained.

Xia Zhe could understand Qiao Mei's intentions. He put on a coat for her and walked with her towards Qiao Zhuang's house. On the way, they even asked Auntie Dong and Auntie Wang to go with them.
