Chapter 1664 Be More Prudent

These two puppies looked to be exceptional, both mentally and physically. If they were trained properly, they might even be able to participate in competitions in the future. If they were bred, their offspring would definitely be very good-looking!

There was a long wait for them to grow up though. It would take a few years for the puppies to become big dogs. Who knew how many intruders could have entered the house within this period of time!

"Let's keep these two puppies in the courtyard. Build a fenced area for them so that they can play in the courtyard. Otherwise, if anyone takes a fancy to them and steals them, we would never see them again," Qiao Mei said as she looked at Xia Zhe.

"Alright, I'll get it done in a while," Xia Zhe said.

The older folks always said that black dogs could attract wealth and ward off evil spirits and ensure the safety of the family. It was very rare to find a totally black puppy, especially one which was strong and healthy.

Qiao Qiang must have gone to the dog market many times before he found these two puppies. Since Qiao Qiang liked them so much, she would let him raise them. She just needed to ensure that the dogs were up-to-date with their vaccines so that they would not spread any diseases to the children.

Qiao Qiang was really quite unhappy with Xia Zhe this time round. Li Gui getting kidnapped was such a major issue, but Xia Zhe actually let Qiao Mei come back and deal with the problem herself. If Xia Zhe had come back with her, then things would have been very different.

Qiao Qiang kept a long face and did not say anything. He did not know what to say to Xia Zhe. Qiao Mei was his biological granddaughter. How could he stay angry with Qiao Mei? Therefore, he could only let Xia Zhe assume the role of the "punching bag".

"What's the use of scolding you! I just want to see her fine and well in front of me." After saying that, Qiao Qiang looked into Xia Zhe's eyes and asked, "Tell me how your family is going to deal with all the problems created by the third son's family. And tell me more about what went on with that woman who wanted to kill Qiao Mei the day before yesterday."

Xia Zhe stood beside Qiao Qiang in a state of fear. He owed Qiao Mei too much. Ever since Qiao Mei married into the Xia family, there had been endless waves of trouble. All of this was his fault. He did not get rid of all these enemies and he also did not handle things more thoroughly. He had been too slack and left it to Xia Wen to settle all these issues.

"Oh! Grandfather! Has Sister Xu already prepared food! Let's eat! I haven't tasted Sister Xu's cooking for so long and I have a craving for it! Come, come, come! Let's go now!" Qiao Mei hurriedly pulled Qiao Qiang towards the backyard. As they walked, she turned around to signal to Xia Zhe to hurry back to the room to rest.

It was not as if Qiao Qiang did not know it was Qiao Mei's little trick. This little girl had someone she wanted to protect now. She had indeed changed!

"You only know how to protect him!" Qiao Qiang said as he looked at Qiao Mei in disdain.

Qiao Mei held Qiao Qiang's hand and said sweetly, "Grandfather~ You also know that it's not Xia Zhe's fault, so why are you making things difficult for him?"
